The FB userbase is thoroughly alienated. Same thing is happening to the site formerly known as twitter. Same thing will happen to IG in the next five years. You can't make red line go up every quarter without showing more ads, taking more deals, promoting paid posts, etc and each change drives more users off the site. No one below a certain age uses FB anymore except to keep in touch

- automate the boring stuff with Python: this book got me in to programming, a relatively lucrative career and lifestyle booster.

- Ritalin: I’ve gone my whole life without knowing I had ADHD. Taking medication for it has been a complete game changer in terms of happiness and ability to relax
The Thunderscan, for the time, was pretty awesome though. I remember borrowing one from a classmate to make some scans. Given how we keep a document scanner in our pocket these days, the whole notion of sticking a scanner into a printer seems so antiquated and kinda crazy.
I think I like the “dumbify” apps better. You can install them on a regular smartphone and make it a bad experience for doom scrolling but still have conveniences like MFA apps, Password Managers, audio books, music streaming, etc. that are hard to come by on true dumb phones.
Nice leftist spin!
The divide between the haves and the have-nots continues to grow. I imagine the general population on HN has 1 or more retirement/brokerage accounts, and odds are they got a bump in their accounts today.

A lot of people got no bump at all because they don't have a 401K/IRA/Brokerage account..

> You are wrong here. You will indeed never be Japanese

I think you are assuming they share the same definition of "Japanese" as you. Even the Japanese government does not agree with your definition.
In the paper 'Hopfield networks are all you need', they calculate the total number of things able to be 'stored' in the attention layers, and it's exponential in the number of parameters. So essentially, you can store more 'ideas' in an LLM than there are particles in the universe. I think we'll be good.

From a technical perspective, this is due to the softmax activation function that causes high degrees of separation between memory points.

Trump's primary economic policies are to start the mother of all trade wars and conduct mass deportations, which would have a devastating impact on the domestic economy in general and American consumer spending in particular. The only reason markets are so excited is because they don't believe Trump will actually do either of those things, at least not to the extreme degree he has repeatedly threatened.

Why is this news? Also why is this hackernews! Stock markets bounce for hundreds of reasons and crash just as often. Are we going to be reading updates about Bezos's net worth every time it shifts because it seems like an excellent way to get clicks by playing into the crowd's rubbernecking instincts?

That's really the least of my worries. The 60/20 tariffs are so broad, they're going to hit every industry hard. And people voted for Trump because they hated inflation! Unbelievable.

Fusors already enabled desktop fusion reactors, literally high school science fair projects even a couple of decades back.

What stops Fusors and Polywells from having already given us this decades ago with P-B11 etc. is that the cross section for fusing is so much lower than the cross section for elastic scattering, and that elastic scattering loses so much energy to EM via bremsstrahlung.
This is an extremely low effort post. It's just a stock market surge - a lot more than 10 people benefit from them, and they are not just tied to elections.

The market also tanked a few times during his previous presidency and no one was handing him laurels for reducing inequality when they happened, so it would be silly to do the inverse.
At least you're in control of when to look at the updates in new versions.

A monorepo gives you less control. If you're unable to enforce control through other means, sure use a monorepo. But it's limiting.
BeOS was “pervasively” multithreaded, which in non marketing speak means the kernel did not have a giant lock (since it was designed as a many core system from day #1). Its contemporary OS’s at the time had a giant single lock. BeOS also had 750ms preemption interval (or was it 3ms, I dont remember) while Linux and Windows had 20ms, then later 10ms, so this is what you fealt. A couple of decades later and most OS’s matched the finer locking granuality in kernel space, minus the premption interval (argument being throughput vs latency, since scripted OS benchmarks measure overall throughput, not GUI responsiveness). A perfect example is media buffers that benefit from smaller buffer sizes, at the cost of less throughput. Musicians notice better responsiveness in BeOS, hence the monicker “Media OS”.

Also, in GUI space, the BeOS/Haiku app server still offers a more distributed workload compared to other desktop environments. Every windows is assigned its own thread, the app gets its own thread, and the app and application server have 1 thread per app and window to ensure they are not blocked waiting for slow app message parsing. So minimum BeOS app with graphical “Hello World” window is 4 threads. So even if the app is busy, the rest of the system still feels responsive.

All this comes at a throughput cost, as well as an app development complexity cost, especially for ported apps. Haiku needs to marshall Qt/Gtk/toolkit messages from many windows into a single message queue to prevent multithreaded bugs from popping up (since in their original environment, all app message loopers were not multithreaded). This marshalling needs additional lock/unlock calls in Haiku even when not needed (messages to same window).

Haiku native apps, on the other hand, are smooth as ice. See this screenshot of Medo video editor where all windows are working in their own threads (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/smallstepforman/Medo/refs/...). On modern systems, this app is smooth as ice, which for a video editor is heresy. Disclaimer: I wrote the linked Haiku app.
Saying stop the wars is nice. Saying it while you cheer the people starting the wars with a badge of "Best Friends Forever" is just cynical and disgusting.

>the shows I go to are packed and there are other people dancing

I would love to actually be able to dance/move at packed shows. Not to mention the absolutely lame rise of seated only shows. Orchestral music, ok, but sitting down at a rock show is neutering the experience for me.
There's information about the market, like interest rates and whatever is happening in politics and how the economy is doing. Then there is information about assets, which might change or not change. Gold and bitcoin react to information about the market, because these assets don't really change.

I think you might be reading into that wrong... They both seemed to have similiar views on imigration...

I think another reading is that abortion was the most important topic. I strongly believe that abortion is wrong and voted accordingly. There have been over 20M abortions in the united states, and is directly responsible for our current population collapse.
iOS has very strict process/resource management because it wants to preserve both available RAM (for responsiveness) and your battery life. I wouldn't call it cheating (even in jest); it's a very deliberately and carefully designed feature of the OS.
And most importantly for anyone who cares about space the way Elon claims to: The ISS has done pretty much all the research we have on how humans survive in space.
Hot take: stop requiring consumption to fill the state's coffers, just have people pay directly proportionally to their use and revenue.
Example: you are a pedestrian anf have low income ? You pay 50€ a year in your taxes to participate to keeping the walk ways in a good state, maybe some calculation taking into public transport into account.
You are a SUV owner with a nice salary ? You pay 500€ because your method of transportation damage the road a lot.

Two bird in one stone, state gets money, society is consume less and so pollute less

> 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.

I also know what I see around me. Every time a search engine or social media site or OS pushes an AI feature I see people coming to me asking if I know how to turn it off. Tips like adding -"ai" -"stable diffusion" -"midjourney" -"prompt hunt" -"open art" to searches have spread to everyone I know.

You're right that Google and Microsoft would have better numbers than I do and maybe it's better to trust the hype-train fed to us by the multi-billion dollar corporations who have massive sunk costs to justify to their shareholders, over glorified internet surveys. I'm not even saying that AI can't ever become wildly popular, but I know that nobody around me is impressed or even optimistic about AI, most everyone wants to get away from it, and that includes the stereotypical grandmother types who genuinely want the tech they interact with to be easier to use and the the stereotypical tech/nerd types who want it to be more powerful. That's not a very good sign.

Also, let's not pretend that those "fantasy products with absurd titles" aren't representative of the kind of absurd products we've all seen "AI" slapped onto.
The part you need to focus on is where he says: "I wish the first time it was done correctly."
The AGPL license is a no-go for me.

While it’s technically true that it’s an OSI license it’s mostly used to scare away competing cloud vendors from hosting the software, which isn’t in spirit of OSS.

Have you looked into the more modern choices?

Like the Business Source License that MariaDB created and uses or the Functional Source License that Sentry created as an improvement over the Business Source License? https://fsl.software/

Both those licenses have a fair source phase that automatically resolves into an open source phase over time.

Thus one gets the best of two worlds: An honest descriptive license for protecting one’s business model + a normal permissive OSS license that ensures longevity and prevents lock-in.
I've started recently, for an adult absolute beginner I would recommend: Alfred's Basic Adult All-In-One Piano Course (covers all types of music). A popular alternative is the Faber Adult Piano Adventures (more classical). Both books will go over how to position your wrists and fingers, music theory, as well as pieces.

I'm sure Alfred and Faber have books for kids. Check reddit and amazon. But you won't go wrong with books from either probably.

To accompany the books, there are videos where people go over the pieces from the books as a piano teacher. I recommend this guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4gizue_ULg&list=PL8hZtgRyL9..., but just search the book name + piece name

Lastly since you're both learning, look into duet books and utilize the split mode on your piano

The penalty for potential failure needs to be very high - such as banning a app from a country. It could be done. ( Something that would give social media companies significant motivation. ) Social media implication efforts should be examined and audited for software experts and other experts - even down to viewing every part of their software system. Actually tested by outside experts. I used to work for large gambling organisation and the companies systems where audited such by experts - they could reques tto see ANYTHING . Included their own test scenarios . included auditing of our test results. Depending on change , audit could take days . Penalty for hiding anything was so high , it was not done. Same type of system needs to apply to social media companies. I would predict they will claim it can not be done
Sorry this is the same company whose application mentions safety/alignment/ethics like 20 times and asked how applicants will uphold those principles?
I would really rethink your value proposition.

> CLI allows for portability and system integration that plugins or extensions really can't do

In the past 6 or 7 years I haven't written a single line of code outside of a JetBrains IDE. Same thing for all of my team (whether they use JetBrains IDEs or VS Code), and I imagine for the vast majority of developers.

This is not a convincing argument for the vast majority of people. If anything, the fact that it requires a tool OUTSIDE of where they write code is an inconvenience.

> And when AI actually understands my codebase, I just get a lot more done.

But Amazon Q does this without me needing to type anything to instruct it, or to tell it which files to look at. And, again, without needing to go out of my IDE.

Having to switch to a new tool to write code using AI is a huge deterrent and asking for it is a reckless choice for any company offering those tools. Integrating AI in tools already used to write code is how you win over the market.
Agreed. Only stupid thing is that my dumb phone comes with fb that cannot be deleted, but I have no data-plan. Oh and some games that apparently auto-bill your phone account if you start using them, also cannot be deleted. Still it was the best tech purchase in a long time under 100e for quality of life improvement, and helped me finally escape the depressing 'news/propaganda' streams.

under 1000e: I am still experimenting with, but a water distiller and some glass bottles to try and escape the plastic water bottle madness.
Thanks. I was thinking though how much more UI hassle the modern systems are for 5-year olds as I have nephews; if you can still load with cartridges and use wired controllers -- that's pretty close to the classic systems with respect to UI. I am still nostalgic for a larger cartridges, SD cards are so puny.
The Biden admin upped production over the course of his term, but that increase is only relative to the 2020 drop-off. It only returned to previous levels in late '23. It did very slightly surpass those levels into early '24: 13 MMbbl/d at pre-covid to 13.3. So 50% more permits resulted in a rounding error at its peak.

Much of that increase went to export. On top of that, Biden sold half of the strategic petroleum reserve.

The general point is that you can drill all you want, but sending it overseas doesn't help Americans. The best result is that we buy back gasoline at a margin that's tolerable, but that's not helping either price at the pump or overall energy costs.

There is a partisan disagreement on energy independence.
The U.S. election is going to reverberate around the world, it's not just apathetic Americans who are impacted. And misinformation absolutely contributed to the result, but I'd call the bigger player Fox news. All that being said, harms from Meta aren't limited to misinformation.

When I'm at the pearly gates I don't want to be someone who 'maximized his salary and didn't give a fuck'. To each their own.
They are not some professor in my school, some valued colleague, or known kernel expert. They are a stranger on the internet. No, I can't be bothered to research every person that claim to have some wisdom that they won't articulate to cultivate an air of mystery.

Thankfully, none of us has had asthma. As far as anecdata:

The device does have a what-appears-to-be-accurate AQ (air quality) sensor on the side. In the presence of smoke, it turns red, cranks itself up, and then returns to blue (clearest) through purple over the course of some minutes. As such, I'd say that the "response curves" looked legit to my programmer brain, besides that the air certainly smells better.

I can definitely say, however, that -- having replaced the filters three times over these four years -- the HEPA layer (the inmost) definitely got brownish. Each 3-6 month pre-filter cleaning cycle had nice gradations of dust and stuff after each cleaning, sometimes a great deal if we were slacking.

Regardless, who knows what's been sucked into and blown through our ancient HVAC unit's ducts over these past decades, what with most people probably just buying the cheapest air filter possible? Why not err on the side of caution w/rt AQ?
Hah no, you're not alone! Candidly, this is one of the top complaints from users. We're doing a lot of prompt engineering to be safe, but we can definitely do more. But the ones who take the leap of faith have found that it speeds up their workflows tremendously. Codebuff installs the right packages, sets up environments correctly, runs their scripts, etc. It feels magical because you can stay at a high level and focus on the real problems you're trying to solve.

If you're nervous about this, I'd suggest throwing Codebuff in a Docker container or even a separate instance with just your codebase.
I wonder how well a system like this would work in other conflicts. Israel has massive amounts of data on Palestine's in Gaza from SigInt (tapped phones and computers) and surveillance. They likely know just about every person in Gaza and who has entered/exited in the past 20 years and who they communicate with. Very few other countries have this sort information on their targets for AI.
