This is absolutely amazing! Very well executed, congrats!!

I was absolutely terrified at first that falling off would have me start again from the beginning, so I was very careful. Once I did fall and come back where I was I grew bolder which made it more fun. Maybe that should be advertised somewhere.

Show HN: Pull Request Reviewed by LLM
This year I’ve reviewed more than 1000 code changes. Most of the time was spent catching obvious mistakes rather than debating complex design decisions. If we estimate ~10 minutes per review, that’s 160+ hours spent reviewing code in just one year.

So I thought: could I get some of that time back using LLMs?

That's why I spent the last few weekends building an LLM-based prereviewer that should take a first pass before the actual human reviewer. The results so far are promising: I estimate it can reduce the review time by 50%, which in my case would mean I save 80hours (~10 working days) per year.

Linked above is an example of a PR where I'm testing the AI reviewer and it showcase how it can detect bugs, suggest best practices about token validity, generate summary and title, and even chat with me in review comments.

The AI reviewer is a simple Github action that runs everytime I open or synchronize a pull request and you can see the source code at https://github.com/presubmit/ai-reviewer.
I'm sorry to hear that, its terrible what's happening in Ukraine right now but its not a dead writer who is doing it.
Loud show noise and your online friends' nearby audio is going to be reflected around the room as well as off of your bodies.

What you want isn't microphone or beamforming tech, it's echo cancellation the same as every videoconferencing software uses.

You just need to feed the show audio and friend audio in, and apply echo cancellation to each.
This is marvelous. Any thoughts on open sourcing it?

> How could anyone not want games like Runescape to exist?!?

I mean, I wouldn't say I don't want it to exist. But Runescape is one of the shittiest, most boring games I've ever played. It's not exactly a strong argument for why we should run stuff in the browser
It's trivial to make most AI implementations deterministic; just use a constant RNG seed.
Well thankfully I have no intention of making that characterization...?
Isn't just the lock something that potentially needs space per object?
Yes actually, cheers
Well, LLMs are bad at math but they're ok at detecting math and delegating it to a calculator program.

It's kind of like humans.
I also don't understand the idea of voice mode, or agent controller computer. Maybe it is cool to see as a tech demo, but all I really want is good quality, at reasonable price for the LLM service
It's very little capital investment, yes. In both absolute terms (like a few thousand dollars of school, sometimes paid for by the employer), and relative to starting a non-trade business (rent, equipment, etc).

I was waching the other day a documentary a bout a rock moviment called Zanrock, very common in Zambia in the 70s. They would perform for great crowds and press discs in South Africa.

Go look at earnings reports for big tech companies. AI is definitely driving incremental revenue.

Apple is definitely on the AI bandwagon, they just have a different business model and they’re very disciplined. Apple tends not to increase research and investment costs faster than revenue growth. You’ll also notice rumors that they’re lowering their self driving car and VR research goals.
It has a profound and extensive knowledge about something. But that "something" is how words follow each other on popular media.

LLMs are very firmly stuck inside the Cave Allegory.
> However, while doing that, you're just ignoring the number of killed people.

If the number of dead were an issue, then where are the protests about Sudan (60,000 dead)? Yemen (350,000 dead)? Syria (500,000 dead)?
I never said I was there by choice ...
I agree. Trying to shove everything into the browser is absolutely stupid. Native apps are better than doing things in the browser in almost all cases. But that's not trendy, so people don't chase after it.
OnlineOrNot Diaries 22 – on successfully leaving AWS Lambda
Probably has something to do with the price of zero. The concept keeps showing up in random feeds for me, and it’s something both marketers and behavioral economists like to talk about. It seems free short circuits a lot of our normal cognitive pathways.

That said, I learned an interesting trick years ago. If you’re trying to get rid of junk, leaving it on the side of the road with a free sign is not as effective as using a sign with a slightly more than nominal amount. $25 used to be the sweet spot, $50 might be better today. Probably depends on the thing. Make it look like they’re getting a deal. Items tend to disappear after that, though I did once have someone knock and pay.
Shure sells a variety of array microphones (and the software) that handles similar things. I've never used one, but heh.

Dev Log #15 – Collisions
Show HN: A data oriented TodoMVC using Replicant
Data oriented. It's been a theme throughout my rather long career. Especially the last five or so years, when I've been using Clojure in anger. But even with Clojure there are a lot of not fully data oriented ways of doing things. Building frontends (which I do for a living) has been particularly tricky to keep as data oriented as I wish. Enter Replicant https://github.com/cjohansen/replicant

Replicant is one of those libraries which make you say “I can't believe this is not React”. But it really isn't React. It brings 90% of the benefits of React, without bringing in that whole world of churn and not-so-data-oriented ways of doing things. Replicant has zero dependencies. It is created by Christian Johansen, a developer as data oriented as they come. To get where Replicant, and this TodoMVC example, comes from, have a watch at Christians JavaZone Oslo 2023 talk, Stateless Data-driven UIs https://2023.javazone.no/program/85f23370-440f-42b5-bf50-4cb...

As Replicant is a library, and not a framework, there are as many ways to use it to build TodoMVC as there are developers. This example takes inspiration from my previous favorite UI libraries, Reagent and re-frame, from which I use what I think are their best ideas. The example implements a tiny (less than 50 loc) framework and then leverages that to create perhaps the most data oriented TodoMVC ever (I am expecting to be shown a lot of examples that are as, or more, data oriented). The unit tests in the example take advantage of this and test things that you normally need to bring in browser drivers to test. The example is finished, but the tests are work in progress (about 30% done, I think).

I've tried to make the example super easy to clone and play with. And I've tried to make the README be clear and useful to understand the example and what's unique with it. Please give it a spin and tell me what you think! If you want to help with test coverage, that would be awesome too.
It's buggy. I got stuck in the blue "pool" in the last stage, under one of the green ramps.

> The sad part is that the U.S. has a huge population of people that still don’t think anyone else’s rights to the pursuit of happiness and peace take precedence over their constitutional right to own guns, and if Sandy Hook didn’t move the needle then I don’t see what will.

Sandy Hook is just one reason why I don't own a AR-15 or other semiautomatic firearms. I'm of the opinion that no civilian (police included) needs a semiautomatic.

But I've got a .30 lever-action rifle. I usually only load it at the range. I usually only fire it at the range. I've never even aimed my weapon at another human being, despite occasionally being tempted.

I see no reason why I should allow my rights to be abridged because other people abuse theirs. The needs of the many might outweigh the needs of the few, but I do not accept that they can outweigh the rights of the individual.
Most of them go back to their birthplace, but some end up elsewhere.

If that's a "deliberate" evolutionary strategy or just that 100% navigation success doesn't happen is unknowable.
But why? The cost of upkeep for the dams compared to the amount of utility they provided was already too high to preserve the dam. Adding this sort of mechansim would only add to the cost of upkeep, making the preservation of the dam an even worse proposition.
It would be better to attribute. You can still do this by fixing the git commit history and doing a force push. It would do a lot to make people feel better.
Not sure I'm a big fan of focusing on concrete cryptographic primitives; I suspect all you need is a commitment scheme and change the leaves to be commitments to the data (instead of the data itself), but I found it quite difficult to ascertain whether this would meet the requirements

Doesn't necessarily have to be business owner with employees. Could be like one person self employed, maybe with a brother or something.

The last plumber I hired was two brothers, who do good work, charge like $100+/hr on labor, but are considered self employed and thus don't show up in that dataset.
> They are 75% carbs.

75% of the calories in broccoli is from carbs, sure, but because the overall calorie content of broccoli is so low, it's still considered low carb.

A 1-cup, 156-gram serving is 55 calories, 11g carbs, and 5g fiber, so is only 6g of net carbs for keto purposes.

This game is way better than it needs to be for a quick burst of advertising. Not only is the implementation fantastic, with perfect controls, but the level design is also great. I really enjoyed the multiple routes and the fact you can skip most of the advertising displays.

It seems such a shame that this isn't a full game. Removing the advertising and adding more complex levels with puzzles would make for a perfect little distraction.

Guns could be removed by passing a Constitutional amendment to repeal the 2A.

The thing is, the anti-gun people are simply unwilling to do this because their position isn't nearly as popular as they believe. There's nothing stopping them from going through that effort other than fear. If 80% of the population really did agree with them, passing an amendment to repeal the 2A should be a no-brainer for any politician that wants to get re-elected.
Another reason is that exploratory programming is hard by design in Rust. Rust is great if you already have a spec and know what needs to be done.

Most of the gamedev in my opinion is extremely exploratory and demands constant experimentation with design. C/C++ offer fluidity, a very good and mature debug toolchain, solid performance ceiling and support from other people.

It will be really hard to replace C++ in performance/simulation contexts. Security takes a backseat there.
Yeah the dams also tend to regulate flows in the river system which doesn't allow natural cycles of peaks and valleys to help regulate parasites.
Funnily enough, this is man is namesake!
I would love to see this come to our various mobile devices in a nicely packaged form. I think part of what is holding back assistants, universal-translators, etc, is poor audio. Both reducing noise and being able to detect direction has a huge potential to help (I want to live-translate a group conversation around a dining table, for example).

Firstly it would be great if my phone + headphones could combine the microphones to this end. But what if all phones in the immediate vicinity could cooperate to provide high quality directional audio? (Assuming privacy issues could be addressed).
I had no idea they were mammals until this comment. I thought they were furry birds!
Turnkey web hosting. Drag and drop your build folder, get a URL. Or point it to your git repo.
It makes that money because it gets that infrastructure at cost instead of having to pay for it.

Unfortunately, that position is already held by Musk.
Grant's writings are conspiratorial, quack-ish, medically untrained, offering simple explanations for complex problems, demonising one compound, implying or stating medical and research fraud and incompetence ... and I love them.

I would put some money on there being something to what he's saying, even if he's not all right.

And I would like to see more HN discussion that isn't just dull cynical sneering of who can laugh hardest at the most obvious logical flaws. We can all laugh at Javascript and PHP warts but there's no question that there's more to them than flaws. Years after "No wifi, less space than a Nomad, lame" and "I could build DropBox in a weekend with rsync" those kind of takes are still all anyone wants to say about underdog, left-field ideas.

Vitmain A:

- is naturally in foods

- is added to more foods to 'fortify' them

- is toxic in high doses

- "high doses" are fairly low over the RDA

- it doesn't take much food to get over the RDA, every day

- it bioaccumulates

- people are taking in more than the RDA, every day, for years

- people are getting ill with unexplained, incurable, diseases

- Grant offers explanations - many diseases are intricate, long term retinoic acid damage, and its many consequences.

- Anecdotally there are people who followed his ideas and their incurable diseases cured themselves.
It's already kind of implemented.
Kipling is one of the greatest authors in the English language. His work is acclaimed, universally, by anyone with taste.

So to compare Dostoevsky to Kipling is high praise!

I wouldn't say I "moved away" necessarily - but as I've gotten more into developing 2D games Unity has just started feeling like overkill, so I've gone back to using the PhaserJS framework.

Massively reduced deployment bundles are always a nice side bonus as well.
> No in most wars children don't die.

I don't know why you think that. I have a feeling that you live far from war.

For what it's worth, quite a few children that I know or whose parents I know were murdered on October 7. Two of them were babies, burned alive, one of those babies was an infant. And a child in my daughter's class was murdered, along with both his sisters (and both parents, too). Shall I go on?

Yes. Which proves my point.
I guess we have similar "No shit, Sherlock" files, but our respective files are rather different from those of other Americans.
Your activity throughout this submission leads me to believe you have a great deal of investment in this subject...somehow.

I was trying to reconcile between the comment that you were responding to (and its relevance in relation to the one that it was responding to) and your own (which was relevant also irrespective of your disinterest in entertaining its relevancy).

> I'd just rather you not conflate stuff like 3blue1brown with whatever feminist you have a bone to pick with. Both are "content creators".

To me it feels like we have similar things to say about the ambiguity of the word "content", but when I speak on it I'm conflating things. But when you're speaking on it you aren't doing anything other than correcting me on my perceived conflation.

Is it because my framing is different than yours that it's unworthy of legitimate criticism? That would suck. Because everything that you did say in response to what I said that reads like criticism on the surface makes me feel more confident in the things that you didn't address.

If you're able to, why not put your perspective on life into practice for me. Engage the part of my comment that has nothing to do with why you replied and doesn't appeal to you.

Evidently I'm in error somehow, but you withholding how I am from me because you don't care about what I'm wrong about does us both a disservice as human beings trying to figure out the present world's terrain.
How early on is that? What I remember of furry culture from the early-mid 1990s internet was pretty straight, at least to judge from all the announcements of heterosexual marriages, all the porn going around, and prominent internet-furry voices. I was a bit surprised when furry culture saw a resurgence in wider internet culture during the Tumblr era and now was strongly linked to non-cishet themes.

> But saying "they don't understand" when they can do _this well_ is absurd.

When we talk about understanding a simple axiomatic system, understanding means exactly that the entirety of the axioms are modeled and applied correctly 100% of the time. This is chess, not something squishy like literary criticism. There’s no need to debate semantics at all. One illegal move is a deal breaker

Undergraduate CS homework for playing any game with any technique would probably have the stipulation that any illegal move disqualifies the submission completely. Whining that it works most of the time would just earn extra pity/contempt as well as an F on the project.

We can argue whether an error rate of 1 in a million means that it plays like a grandmaster or a novice, but that’s less interesting. It failed to model a simple system correctly, and a much shorter/simpler program could do that. Doesn’t seem smart if our response to this as an industry is to debate semantics, ignore the issue, and work feverishly to put it to work modeling more complicated / critical systems.
Salt Typhoon Exploits ISP's Achille's Heel
Terminal, sadly.
You can lock on any object - if you dynamically create these locks, then you need to coordinate creation among threads.
Quote: "As reported by multiple sources, these PRC-backed threat actors associated with Salt Typhoon did in fact exploit an intentional backdoor in these ISP’s systems [edited: AT&T, Verizon, and Lumen] that had been put in place to comply with the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act (CALEA). These backdoors were intended to provide law enforcement with a technical means of executing legal wiretapping per warrants and subject to legal requirements. What Salt Typhoon was able to access represents a potentially serious compromise of the privacy of US citizens and carries significant national security implications."
Correct - Dynamic grammar based/constrained sampling can be used to, at each time-step, force the model to only make valid moves (and you don't have to do it in the prompt like this article does!!!)

I have NO idea why no one seems to do this. It's a similar issue with LLM-as-judge evaluations. Often they are begging to be combined with grammar based/constrained/structured sampling. So much good stuff in LLM land isn't used for no good reason! There are several libraries for implementing this easily, outlines, guidance, lm-format-enforcer, and likely many more. You can even do it now with OpenAI!

Oobabooga text gen webUI literally has chess as one of it's candidate examples of grammar based sampling!!!
