I agree that it would be tough to create a uniform standard; there’s at least one library that tries to use/extend SVG features for defining node shapes, and even they admit it’s a PITA and so provide programmatic wrappers: [GoJS Geometry](https://gojs.net/latest/api/symbols/Geometry.html)

They leverage SVG Paths [1] to define node/object shapes, and so you can use Bézier curves and other entities defined in the SVG spec in your graphs [2]. Alternatively you can just reference .svg files. They have a lot of cool samples [3]. I don’t remember where I came across it, but I’ve been digging through github to find the libraries that popular tools use; there are 3k forks, so somebody likes it.

1. [SVG Paths](https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/paths.html)
2. [GoJS Path Strings](https://gojs.net/latest/intro/geometry.html)
3. [GoJS Samples](https://gojs.net/latest/samples/)

I’m personally not liking Kagi anymore. There are a few bugs that I’ve been dealing with for a year now that haven’t been fixed.

I’m using Safari on iOS. After you make a search and you want to modify your search text by pressing the search bar, the cursor doesn’t show up at all. So when you type, it either doesn’t type in anything or it types in the middle of the search words, if that makes sense. You don’t know where the cursor is until you type.

Just those little things makes me not want to use it.

And the search results aren’t all that great either and I have to depend on Google sometimes.

It’s hit or miss but when I expect Github results for a repo, it doesn’t show up unless I add “gh” or “github” to make it show up. It’s not like I ranked github lower, it’s actually in the normal rank setting.

Thanks for releasing this! More ideas are great and welcome, and even I don’t use this directly, maybe the ORM I use will like some of the features and add them.

But I have to admit, this one bit almost made me stop reading:

> For those who don't know, SQL is the standard when it comes to interacting with databases.

I can scarcely imagine anyone who both 1. would want to use this and 2. doesn’t know what SQL is. So if I’m reading this, and you’re telling me what a database is, I assume you assume I’m an idiot. This makes me wonder if it has design choices to protect hypothetical Rust-using, DB-using idiots from themselves at the expense of making it hard to handle edge cases.

I’m sure you didn’t mean it that way, but that’s how it rubbed me. Maybe consider leaving out the extremely basic introductory bits.
Given the context, it appears they are not benchmarking against other models but comparing differently sized versions of the same model. The 8B one is just the one they decided to give a catchy name. The other ones are probably also just fine tuned Llama models. But without information on the total compute budget (i.e. nr. of trained tokens), this kind of plot is pretty useless anyways.

tech which was called a "kill switch". Media rushed to say it's not really a kill switch, just "sensors or cameras to monitor the driver’s behaviors, head or eye movements" and "block the driver from operating the vehicle". So... a kill switch.

It's not a kill switch, the link you provided explains that it's not a kill switch, yet you still call it a kill switch.

If you were paying any attention, then you know that idiots online were portraying this as the cops being able to remotely disable your car at their will.

In fact, the requirement is for the vehicle to pull safely to the side of the road when it detects an impaired driver (DUI or medical emergency). There is no external initiation, it's entirely self-contained.

It's not a kill switch. It's not remotely like a kill switch.

Having personally been within minutes of crashes involving a drunk driver who blew a stop sign and smashed into a fire hydrant, and another driver experiencing a health emergency who crashed through an intersection at 80mph in a 25mph zone, I say bring it on. Ignore the Rogan-sphere FUD peddlers.

Thanks for the feedback! The point about perplexity is totally valid for the nondeterministic shuffle baseline. This seems to have misled a lot of people. But for all the other baselines, we're applying some one-to-one transformation function to the original training set, and so not increasing the inherent entropy of the distribution being learned.

As for tokenization, good point: it's worth retokenizing based on the altered datasets to see if that changes anything. I think it might not, because the tokenizers we use are based on the frequency distribution of "words" identified by whitespaces, but we'll have to check.

I don't think it was arbitrary though. I'm not disputing that EVs are heavy, and my first car was probably really light, a 957cc Ford Fiesta. That thing taught you to anticipate the road because you had to apply in writing when you wanted to accelerate. Got 50MPG out of that on one trip though. My friend stated that my Leaf would be heavier than his car, and when we checked, we were surprised. I think it is relevant because we are of a similar age, and same profession. It's anecdotal but the people buying EVs, especially early (my Leaf is 2018 and we were still being asked stopped and asked about EVs then) would probably by buying cars that were of a similar weight anyhow. We do need to get the weight down. We do need better battery chemistry. I am disheartened that my tyres are polluting, but for this sample size of one, the tires are probably not more polluting than if I had an ICE.

Oh. That’s interesting. Thank you. Yeah, my BP has been abnormally low since this thing and I am often finding I have a ridiculously high and weak pulse from nothing - usually when I stand up from tying my shoes, or picking up my daughter - I often have to grab something and breathe for a few moments while I break out in a cold sweat. And the whole “heavy lower legs” thing rings very true too, along with the constipation - fun side effect is I have developed horrendous haemorrhoids.

I’ve got into the habit of changing posture slowly, as it makes it far less likely I’ll keel over.

It’s pretty distressing as at the start of this year I was the kind of guy who would scurry up and down a mountain to watch the sunrise before breakfast, and now I’m struggling to walk to the car from the house.

And I can’t fucking sleep - again, it’s my heart rate - lying flat seems to send it soaring, and I have to wedge myself at a very specific half-reclined angle that invariably results in a sore neck for it to not.

Thank you. I’ll look into this.

"Unpacking the reasons for this increase goes beyond the extent of this essay,
and it certainly wasn’t just because of AT&T and Bell Labs. But Bell Labs’ achievements, particularly the invention of the transistor in 1947, seem to have prompted the decisions of many companies to start their own R&D labs, and influenced how those labs were structured."

1947 was a magical year. That announcement had profound implications. They effectively invented something that would replace the huge existing base of vacuum tube components with miniaturized transistors. This miniaturization phase significantly influenced Von Nuemann's recommendation for the ballistic missile program. Many of the discrete component systems manufactured during this time remained in service into the 1980's.

This is a photo of a D-17B guidance computer that deployed on the Minuteman Missile in 1962, 15 years after creating the transistor, and was typical of military printed circuitry at the time for general purpose computers, disk/drum storage drives, and printers.

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/38/Autoneti...

"The D-17B weighed approximately 62 pounds (28 kg), contained 1,521 transistors, 6,282 diodes, 1,116 capacitors, and 5094 resistors. These components were mounted on double copper-clad, engraved, gold-plated, glass fiber laminate circuit boards. There were 75 of these circuit boards and each one was coated with a flexible polyurethane compound for moisture and vibration protection."
I presume they locked out the solar recharging of the battery and home supply but do not stop mains grid power to the home ???.
If you're required to work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, gaining an extra hour or two per day could go toward leisure or recreation or exercise. Or maybe you're already sleeping only 6.25 hours a night, but it is having negative health and mood effects, and eliminating those negatives could improve quality of life without detracting from waking time.

It's odd how anti-hack Hacker News has become.
Great comment! I also struggle with the terminology, but from a much less cogent perspective :). It’s all over the place. As I dig into the existing libraries for tools like this in github, I keep finding new Topic terms that revolve around many of the same ideas: “dataflow”, “node based”, “graph”, “canvas”, “whiteboard”, “diagrammer”, “workflow”, “drawing”, and on. Systems being built with these components are blurring the lines between graph, diagram, and even text editor, and so maybe I am unfair to criticize; after all, it’s almost as difficult as cache invalidation.
It’s the hugbox you want with tooling to ensure nothing contrary ever has a chance to be heard.

Not unlike X, you only hear what you want to hear.
And also for the same reason China installed 180x more PV than nuclear (on a rated power basis) in 2023: PV is cheaper than nuclear.

China also installed more than 4x PV than coal on a rated power basis in 2023. I don't know the capacity factor of their coal -- I hear it's operated at fairly low capacity factor -- so PV installs could well exceed coal installs (especially net coal installs) on a levelized basis there.

Ask HN: Do you think anyone will ever sue Star Citizen?
The advice system that you mentioned is such a good example of this! I recently realized that I had come to rely deeply on xref navigation for going to a definition and then xref-go-back/forward to hop between different jumps. I was bummed that it wasn't a more general backward/forward capability, but then I remembered the advice system. In like 10 minutes I whipped up some quick elisp to add some :before advice around various navigation functions to call xref-push-marker-stack. Not only did it work perfectly to turn the xref marker system into a general navigation capability, I also had complete control over which navigation functions push a marker and which do not.

I think this is the difference with Emacs. Not only is it primarily a lisp environment and then secondarily a text editor, but it goes above and beyond to add general capabilities for modifying its own behavior. With most any other piece of software I can think of, you are relying upon the developers to provide you with the exact APIs to control the software. With Emacs, you control the entire lisp environment, and therefore control the editor running within it.

Show HN: Made this game in 5 minutes–but is it the best use of my creation tool?
I’m working on a creative tool that made it possible for me to build this game in just 5 minutes. It's a powerful tool, but I’m at a crossroads now—with only a month of runway left.

There are already some amazing tools in this space, like Bolt and Lovable. Should I add a paid plan and compete with them directly? Or would it make more sense to focus on a fresh angle or niche for this tool?

I’d really appreciate any advice or feedback. Also, feel free to check out the tool behind the game—it’s free to try, and I’d love to hear your thoughts on it.

bravo for trying. its bizarre to me that we are at a point in time that someone could even imagine that suicide, esp assisted, would be permissible in Christianity.

the protestant view dominates "public Christianity". even Catholics will happily tell you that "yeah we believe in this, but I certainly dont" in regards to things like abortion. they just ignore the leap in logic because it's "permissible" by some protestants.

for many, Christianity is simply "turn the other cheek" on steroids, wrongfully interpreted as "mind my own business" and "only believe in the parts I want to".

> Bring back those laws requiring fairness of media representation.

There is no way for this not being censorship and not being used to suppress less powerful opposition. Which is exactly how it was used in the past. Plus, just look what both sidesm currently does - it motivates journalists to write as if both sides were equal in situation where they clearly are not.

> Require that widely shared content is fact checked and that fact checking is automatically included while sharing and provide recourse for fact checking up to the legal system.

Fact checking is irrelevant to public opinion. And again, it is not that difficult to bias it.

Everyone chooses their own balance of bills. Personally (I'm not who you're replying to) I'm happy to pay more in rent and utilities if it means I can ride my bicycle most places instead of, say, being a 10-minute drive from the nearest crosswalk. In the end, my emissions are probably much lower than someone who can't imagine leaving their house without their car keys even though I drive an ICE.

We have those laws. You return the faulty device to the entity you purchased it from.

I bet some small-time installers that were sourcing on the grey market will go bankrupt because of this.
I think it's one problem at a time. Curbing driving is a separate goal. Reducing pollution from tires is potentially a smaller and direct goal. Either people drive less or use tires that don't shed. That's why I think the tax should be related to the composition of the tire. I agree that people may end up driving on bald tires, and we don't want that. I'm British but live in the US and I think it's utterly insane that vehicles aren't required to have annual or bi-annual safety checks. An emissions test is not a safety test. A safety test involves breaks, tires, and headlamp alignment. I really wish we had headlamp alignment tests in the US. I want the 'freedom' to drive knowing the other cars are safe or the other driver is going to be charged if they are caught or are involved in an accident.
Your choice of words implies it's the government murdering it's citizens. These people have requested it from a medical doctor.
So you get a bit richer for less effort... but how do you think moderating legions of spam posts affects the lives of independent website owners, who just want to create communities around the things they love?

Or indeed the users, who have to wade through trash invading their threads?

Or other legitimate users, who now have to answer captchas from CloudFlare just to access their favourite websites?

Ultimately this is a parasitical element, choking the internet. It will kill the things it profits from. Many will give up running these sites, you walk away with your $100k, and no one can ever do it again... you've not created anything of value, but destroyed it.

I have chronic fatigue issues and after trying thousands of dollars' worth of supplements over the years what worked best for me were blood glutamate scavengers (N-acetyl cysteine for me, I take an unnaturally high dose of up to 8g a day), which seem to help other chronic fatigue people, as well as berberine & niacinamide.

Other things help me that are specific to me but those definitely had a rather dramatic impact on me (after an initial period of feeling like I'd been hit by a train -- it tended make me experience my fatigue up front instead of as PEMS and also reduce the symptoms of it somewhat)

Taurine is great too, there's also TUDCA which is somewhat legendary in some parts of the fatigue community, very good supplement.

Hope this helps! <3 Doing the personal work of letting go of emotional stressors and ceasing all stimulant use when possible (I know it sounds horrible) was also really hard and made a big impact over the years for me.

Still not perfect but so much more functional than I used to be. <3
petrol ICE cars would only be usable for a year or so

The Internet really overstates this. Fuel injected systems are sealed. Carbureted systems are open to outside air, so the fuel is constantly evaporating, leaving residue behind, and absorbing moisture from the atmosphere.

Gasoline in a sealed container remains usable for far longer than people on the Internet say it will.

Anyway, the final state of an apocalypse car would be running on wood gas. North Korea runs some or all of their military trucks on it (this may have changed as they've increased relations with Russia). An episode of Car Talk explained how it was used by German civilians during WWII:
