It's not serious to suggest that Israel did not supply any food or water to the Palestinians when in fact it supplied plenty.

After sufficient arm-twisting from the Biden administration, it did.

But until that point - it withheld. And quite intentionally and forthrightly so:

“I have ordered a complete siege on the Gaza Strip. There will be no electricity, no food, no fuel, everything is closed,” Gallant says following an assessment at the IDF Southern Command in Beersheba.

“We are fighting human animals and we are acting accordingly,” he adds.

Yes, there was some drama in the early 2000s where a bunch of bad vibe people got forcefully shaken out.

I did some digging and have been able to find basically everything. I'm keeping it to myself. No dirty laundry here.

Also if pidgin could magically combine slack, messenger, telegram, discord, and Whatsapp in a single reasonable app ... It'd be a return to the glory days. The current state of half a dozen web apps is such a pain. Just text chat. Nothing fancy.

We need AI to solve climate change, but the energy costs will contribute to climate change. We need a cure for cancer, and an end to COVID and other dangerous viruses, a way for a personal AI that does tasks and earns the user money for basic income or something.

My understanding is that PHP was sort of started by people that did not plan for it like a "serious" programming language, but rather as a tool for specific applications.

So it developed features and functionalities as needed with a very pragmatic focus [0][1]

[0] the most clear example to me is that since functions are not values and cannot be assigned to variables the way to store a function in a variable is to simply assign its name as a string so $callable = "array_map" works. Or that the way to create a pointer to a method is to create a 2 element array of the object and the method name.
I like this example because the way method pointers work in JavaScript is objectively worse as the "this" is easily lost.
Some languages are built on CS principles and PL theory, others like Bash or PHP are just built to get shit done. I am glad that recent versions are fixing some of the oversight of this approach while keeping the pragmatic culture

[1] I am not sure of how true it is, but some claim that some of the standard functions have irregular names because the interpreter used the name length as hash key
It's written like it's a strange thing:

Was anyone expecting a system that handles 6 trillion dollars a year to not fall under financial regulatory purview?

Which I realise is not the actual thrust of the rule change (obviously they were already under some regs already), but it's just such an odd intro.

Apple withdrawing Pay Later when it became clear they'd need to comply with lending regs is quite telling too. Presumably they were attempting to sneak in the back door and claim "it's tech not banking" and got told they're not above the law when the Truth in Lending Act was confirmed to cover the system.

I'd argue that the "rules-based world order" as most people perceive it never really existed. Some will say that it existed for a brief moment in the 90s-2000s. Back then, most countries played nice with the international treaties even if there were no penalties for noncompliance, right? No - it just appeared that way. The 90s and 2000s were a unipolar world, the peak of the American Empire, and America made it eminently clear what would happen if you didn't get in line. If you're a small irrelevant country you would comply with the Treaty on Migratory Slugs or the Convention on Widgets not because of any written penalties, but because to not comply would be to reject the single world power and bear its wrath.

Now we're back to the state of the world as it has always been - multipolar - and it has once more become obvious that things only matter when backed up by force, leverage, and incentives. Look at things with teeth behind them - NATO borders, export controls and ASML, artificial islands in the South China Sea, control of Hong Kong, Russia in Syria or any of the other treaties with military bases. There are papers and laws and declarations on both sides of all of those things, but real-world control always follows force, leverage and incentives.

Lower on the page, there are links to his "Mobile is eating the world" presentation, 2015-ish.

How does this work? Is AI eating Mobile now? Is there a new world to be eaten every decade or so?

Ah, wait. It's just meaningless hyperbole.

> Is AI eating Mobile now?

Yes
> Seems plausible. If you click around you find the report explicitly excludes self-employed workers.

Probably because they are entirely different jobs. The “tradesmen” making the big bucks are actually business owners, who are hiring others to clean the toilets and wire circuit breakers. This makes them more like CEOs than individual plumbers. It would not make sense to lump their salaries with employed trade workers.
Its obvious that this has been possible before. It always was bad practice to do so, no matter of the language. I for see people starting returning `$this` and having these really complex chains of getters. Its going to turn into even more spaghetti, because now there is two syntaxes for basically doing the same thing. It seems simplicity is just something everyone wants to abandon.
Whenever I read about a new PHP release on HackerNews I always come away disappointed with the discussion. You are right, the "magic" that the top comment is complaining about is a non-issue, and I say that as someone who really strongly dislikes "magic" behavior.

In fact, you can imagine what their argument WOULD have been if setting `$this->countryCode` inside the setter for `countryCode` DID result in infinite recursion.

When it comes to PHP, whatever it does, on HackerNews and in the rest of the industry, it just results in a bunch of people complaining about it. Disappointing, and unprofessional.
Well, I could write about the rest, modular algebra, inversibility of x in mod n, why we use the product of two primes, how we are lucky to generate prime numbers, what is modular exponentiation and why it allows us to encrypt and decrypt messages, and finally, why having a public key allows you to encrypt a message but doesn't allow you to decrypt one : where does the asymetry comes from.
That's what I find interesting (not instantly intuitive).
this is the honeymoon phase, wait until your package manager and transpiler is out of date, and your progressive web app framework is out of date, and your typescript version isnt compatible with the upgrade yet, and tailwinds isnt either or it is but none of the documentation is yet, but you have to upgrade because your CI/CD cant run your version of node anymore

and now you have 100 flags across 5 configuration files and dont know which one to change to make everything work, but changing it might break the ability for a random dependency to compile, and even if you get that to work it turns out your project doesnt render anymore
None of those are “major projects” by any definition of the word though. And none of the three has anything to do with wgpu's performance.

Rust for game engine has always been a highly risky endeavor since the ecosystem is much less mature than everything else, and even though things have improved a ton over the past few years, it's still light-years away from the mainstream tools.

Building a complete game ecosystem is very hard and it's not surprising to see that Rust is still struggling.
But I do think our current path on these huge networks are far from leading us to the long-desired AGI, this is just doubling the compute as well as cost as time goes on.
Data and identity custodians become money custodians, and vice versa. U.S. CFPB requires that banks export personal data when authorized by consumers, laying the groundwork for commercial data vaults. Could a Personal Data Vault on Mac Mini be connected to Apple Private Cloud Compute (PCC) LLM?

https://www.consumerfinance.gov/about-us/newsroom/cfpb-final...

> The rule requires financial institutions, credit card issuers, and other financial providers to unlock an individual’s personal financial data and transfer it to another provider at the consumer’s request for free.. Consumers will be able to access, or authorize a third party to access, data such as transaction information, account balance information, information needed to initiate payments, upcoming bill information, and basic account verification information. Financial providers must make this information available without charging fees. The rule moves the United States closer to having a competitive, safe, secure, and reliable “open banking” system.

Show HN: I solved my my issues with massive Google Sheets.
You’ve been there. You open your Google Sheet, expecting to do a quick task. Five minutes, tops. Instead, what greets you is chaos—a never-ending matrix of cells, columns that stretch into oblivion, and rows that blur together like static on a screen. Somewhere in this mess is the data you need, but finding it feels like navigating a maze with no exit.

I was having this horrible issue when I wanted to do some fast work on some sensitive data without messing things up. Oh well.

You scroll. You search. You second-guess. Was it under “John Smith” or “Smith, John”? Is this column even the right year? By the time you spot the row, you’ve spent 10 minutes unraveling the mystery. But now, you’ve got a new problem: editing. One wrong click, and your sensitive data is overwritten. You’re sweating bullets, hoping CTRL+Z will save you from the pit.

And forget about forms. You wish you had one set up, but now? Too late. Copying every header, aligning it with your data, and praying nothing breaks? Good luck. Google Forms, as you realize too late, is a one-way street—great for gathering data, useless for managing it.

This isn’t data management. It’s a dumpster fire.

Automating LLM Development with LLMs
People who are good at reasoning find it hard to admit that they were wrong?

That’s not my experience. People with reason are.. reasonable.

You mention X and that’s not where the reasoners are. That’s where the (wanna be) politicians are. Rhetoric is not all of reasoning.

I can agree that rationalizing snap judgements is one of our capabilities but I am totally unconvinced that it is the totality of our reasoning capabilities. Perhaps I misunderstood.

The nice thing about WebGPU's "compat mode" is that it's designed so browsers don't have to implement it if they don't want to. Chrome is really excited about it; Safari has no plans to implement it, ever.

I agree that compat mode takes up more of the WebGPU standard committee's time than bindless. I'm not sure that's how I would prioritize things. (As a Mozilla engineer, we have more than enough implementation work to do already, so what the committee discusses is sort of beside the point for us...)

What would be really helpful is if, once the bindless proposal <https://hackmd.io/PCwnjLyVSqmLfTRSqH0viA?view> gets merged into the spec repo <https://github.com/gpuweb/gpuweb/tree/main/proposals>, a contributor could start adapting what WGPU has now to match the proposal. Implementation experience would be incredibly valuable feedback for the committee.
If you look past the hyperbole, I think there are some interesting data points in there. For example, fewer enterprises claim to have AI systems in production this year vs last year.
I hope this is irony. If not you could write the same with little changes about the steam engine. It is a technological advance same as every one prior to it. Those that embrace it and use it will come out on top (not without personal risks of having your own skills atrophy). Others will loose. Just like every person doing horse stables work when automobiles became widely used.

The question is how fast.

I remember in the late 90s, me and some friends discovered the internet and went "Woah! Letters, books, shops, work, study, gaming ... pretty much everything will take place in this virtual realm soon!".

We were right. Except for the "soon".

When the first internet café opened, we started spending a lot of our time there, meeting lots of interesting people. Everything outside the internet already seemed anachronistic to us.

What I didn't expect back then was that even replacing letters with email (which already worked!) would take another painstaking ... 20 years!

Today, my work is already massively transformed via neural networks. Pretty much everything I do starts with an interaction with a neural network. Usually a question to an LLM. And then LLMs or other networks are involved all the way up to finishing the task. Thinking about how I worked before these large neural networks came up makes me shiver. How cumbersome. How anachronistic.

But when I talk to people outside the tech sphere, most are not using LLMs or other neural networks at all.

Everything humans do will be deeply transformed. Even more so than via the internet. Will it take 20 years again? Or is technological progress accelerating and this time it will take only 10 years? So far, my feeling is that it will be a bit faster, but not twice as fast.

But maybe it will be even more surprising. One future I can imagine is that people don't even need to adapt. Maybe we will see software simply do all aspects of a job. One can already imagine it for driving cars or making movies. It is harder to imagine it for managing a company, for example. But who knows. LLMs are already surprisingly good at creating chains of thoughts. Maybe we'll find ourselves in an unexpected future in a few years already, where human involvement in anything is just a burden to the process.
I think one of the biggest advantages is the security/privacy benefit — you can see in the demo that the model can mask entities instead of tagging. This means that instead of transcribing and then scrubbing sensitive info, you can prevent the sensitive info from ever being transcribed.
Another potential benefit is in lower latency. The paper doesn't specifically mention latency but it seems to be on par with normal Whisper, so you save all of the time it would normally take to do entity tagging — big deal for real-time applications

I dont disagree. It's also true for the people he teaches.

But they didn't become like that through Tate. They were already brought to that point by our society massively overvaluing things that are effectively harmful to us as productive members of society.

Tate just uses this issue in this messaging, and profits from simps that believe he can solve it for them. Even though the fact they're going to a "daddy figure" as grown men to have it solved is part of the issue in the first place.
Agree with OP, wikipedia is also wrong. A backdoor is something intentional. That definition fits any exploitable bug.
I don’t like the guy. But don’t you think he was right about mobile?
It’s just a play on the title of the “Why Software is Eating the World” article [1] that went viral in the tech industry 13 years ago. It’s no different from all the “[…] is all you need” ML papers. It’s a metaphor, don’t read too much into it.

There is an xdg-desktop-portal which an application can use to register a global shortcut.

Using these two building blocks, it should not be very difficult to implement an application that implements global macro support.

Of course it’s liberals doing it. You’re again levitating above the issue. Liberals are pushing the LGBT agenda, and conservatives are pushing back.

They can elect to never be on the news again by dropping the subject today. Frankly there’s no need whatsoever to talk about one’s sexuality or genitalia publicly.
Except this isn't the steam engine or the internal combustion engine/the car, it's tech, and it replaces most jobs rather than just a few.

If you take its future promise as true (I do not, but for sake of argument lets pretend it is as powerful as you're saying), then it's impact is on a completely different scale and ability than even industrialisation. Its silly to retreat to "no one shoes horses anymore" platitudes as if this tool isn't widly more capable (again, if we take its future promise as written) and disruptive.
