I have no recollection of ever interacting with you before, so why are you repeatedly implying I'm a cheap freeloader? I really don't know what your problem is, but seriously you're way out of line. Do you work for Uptimerobot or something?

Not that it's any of your business, but I signed up for Uptimerobot only barely two months prior to receiving this email about the free plan change. I was using it as a secondary/auxiliary uptime monitoring service for my bootstrapped business, to supplement my primary monitoring. In that brief time, I had no actual outages, but Uptimerobot did have one false positive outage report where they claimed my site was down when it wasn't. So my overall impression of their service was already "need more time to see if this is worth paying for".

Upon then receiving notice that they would be terminating the free plan during Thanksgiving weekend with less than a month of notice, my impression changed to "never ever trust this service for anything". If they had instead offered a more reasonable time period, I would have seriously considered switching to a paid plan, assuming there were no further repeats of their false positive alerts.

I was only using Uptimerobot to monitor 2 sites, which means they were sending less than 600 tiny HEAD requests to my infra per day. The approximate cost of that to them should easily be less than one cent per month.

fwiw, my own product has a free version which has been downloaded over 2 million times and is used by several thousand companies, including some of the largest companies in the world who nonetheless pay me nothing. Despite that, there is no conceivable situation in which I would discontinue a free product with only 26 days notice, as that just pisses off users, flushes reputation down the toilet, and is completely counterproductive to improving revenue.
> Who cares if a LLM can spit out an opinion on some political sensitive subject?

Other governments?
At what point will it be universally understood that "free speech" is only legally binding when a person is speaking with the government.

Well this isn't the case. I'm writing this comment and directing it at you and other non-governmental actors who use HN. So I am not 'speaking with the government'. But the law protects my speech from interference by the government.
Outside philosophy class, do you not distinguish between those things you have personally experienced, characterising them as things that are known (to you), and between those things that you've seen on a screen or heard, characterising them as (mere) possibilities to you, yet to be experienced/verified?
Sorry for the random question, I wonder if you know, what's the status of running LLMs non-NVIDIA GPUs nowadays? Are they viable?

Wow this is fantastic, and I feel a little bit sorry for the LLM. It's like the answer was too simple and it couldn't believe it wasn't a trick question somehow.
The leaps in this writing pain me. There are other aspects, but they’ve been mentioned enough.

Vendor lock in does not come about by relying only on one cloud, but by adopting non-standard technology and interfaces. I do agree that running on multiple providers is the best way of checking if there is lock-in.

Lowering the level of sharing further by running per-service and per-stage clusters, as mentioned in the piece was likewise at best an uninformed decision.

Naturally moving to AWS and letting dedicated teams handle workload orchestration at much higher scale will yield better efficiencies. Ideally without giving up vendor-agnostic deployments by continuing the use of IaC.

>You can regulate large companies, you can regulate published software sold for profit, but it's impossible to regulate free and open source tools.

Regulation is putting legal limitations on things, if it is impossible to regulate free and open source tools then it would be impossible to regulate murder and lots of other things, but it turns out it isn't impossible, sure - murder happens - but people get caught for it and punished.

Sorry, but this argument is much like the early internet triumphalism - back when people said it was impossible to regulate. Turns out lots of countries now regulate it.
Nope, in fact i have no built in mic or camera, and theyre unplugged when not strictly needed.
Quit being a doomer or keep it to yourself. This reminds me of the sound boards that were popular in the early 2000s except way more versatile. Some things are just good for people to have fun and THAT'S OKAY.
Hall effect switches are more like the old hotness that fell out of style and is now viable again among the niche of people willing to pay high prices for keyboards.

Ahh, the typical reaction, lashing out, and ad-hominem. I am sooo unsurprised.

I am well aware that everyone has their breaking point. What is easy for one individual is hard for another. No worries. However, I never expected phone compulsion to make someone fail the Gom Jabbar test. I mean, seriously? If you have trouble regulating your tool usage, how do you even get through life!
This is what I used when I first learning: https://serversforhackers.com/

For a really good practical project: build a website, then host it on your mini-PC and find a way to expose it to the internet. This will teach you a lot about DNS, proxying, building websites, managing the server (via some config management or container), monitoring, etc.

> your point is that existing contaminants in the food and air are analogous situations to these mosquito vaccines, and since we already don't give consent for the former, we shouldn't bother with the latter

Not quite. Contaminants as well as substances we intentionally introduce into our food and water for public health purposes. (Including biologics [1].)

And not that we shouldn't bother. But that the argument for individual consent in a case where we've ample history of not bothering with it, often for the best, isn't a great argument.

> not a reason to give carte blanche to the government to go even further

Sure. But it's not "going further." It's business as usual.

One could go full R. F. K. and argue against the whole enterprise. But that's a fringe position. A proven losing argument. To argue against this (and other specific wrongs at the far end of the spectrum) you need arguments as to why those cases are different. Because going from N = 10,000 to 10,001 isn't qualitatively "going further," it's doing the same thing.

Camera, meet square of electrical tape. Problem solved. Remove tape as needed for video conferences and etc. Why harbour doubts when you can apply solutions?
If youre thinking modern carbon frames most of that is actually driven by design for manufacturability, not strength/weight/performance optimizations per se. Off the top of my head:

Frame “tube” dimensions driven by layup mold & mandrel/bladder requirements to minimize tooling and layup time

Press fit to reduce inserts and post mold operations with a “simpler” molded interface

Flat mount brakes to simplify mold shape and support simpler insert components

UDH and direct mount again the simplicity of molded in shape, minimal inserts, reduced post mold operations.

“Modern” UDH hangers move threaded components off the frame. much simpler than the old syntace style which need both precise thread alignment and/or frame tooling operations and/or additional inserts.

You could probably throw head tubes in here too; split races to avoid reaming, molded bare pseudo-press fit “cups”, and the absolute ridiculous sizes like IS47 and larger.

Many/most of those only help manufacturing costs for major frame factories. And are middling to suck for other materials and small volumes. Ex steel flatmount and IS47 is an absolute joke.
The issue is mostly with git itself, e.g. take a look at

git cat-file commit HEAD

to see something like:

tree <tree-hash>
parent <parent-hash>
author <author-name> <author-email> <timestamp>
committer <committer-name> <committer-email> <timestamp>
gpgsig -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----

<ascii-armored RFC9580 signature>
-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

<commit message>

You can view an example of the structure of this ascii-armored signature here <https://cirw.in/gpg-decoder/#-----BEGIN%20PGP%20SIGNATURE---...>.

You can add a patch to git to support more signature types than just OpenPGP. You may then be able to move mountains and get GitHub/others to join in the validation. Finally, if you can find bugs/exploits in GnuPG, you should report them and you will definitely get credit and recognition for them. They are not trivial to find.
Great stuff well done. What is your latency for real time Audio?
The most useful 3D prints I've downloaded (rather than designed) have got to be pegboard hooks and holders. There are a ton of different shapes and sizes, and they typically stay in the pegboard better than the metal hooks + plastic clip that you can buy at the hardware store.
No, I never said "outcast". We dont outcast children either, we just treat them like non-adults.

Tangential, I realized I can be satisfied by Redis from 2013. Who are relying on recent Redis versions?
Ah, that makes sense - thank you for clarifying!
Bluesky can implement any moderation policies they want, and it will never violate "free speech" laws.

What if Bluesky were to set up a hotline which the federal government can call to have any post censored, and makes it known to government actors that it will act promptly if they want anything removed?

Would that be legal for Bluesky, assuming no coercion from any government actors?
It's interesting which runtimes exploit the extra space for what reasons! Definitely makes more sense to have the extra address space on 32 bits compared to 64. I wonder if the extra addresses are specific to JVM / not something that works well in the C family?
Other governments have other subjects they consider sensitive. For example questions about holocaust / holocaust denying.

I get the free speech argument and I think prohibiting certain subjects makes a LLM more stupid - but for most applications it really doesn't matter and it is probably a better future if you cannot convince your vacuum cleaner to hate jews or the communists for that matter.
> Imagine creating a podcast where Mark Zuckerberg interviews Elon Musk – using their actual voices?

I'm imagining it. It sucks to imagine.

I'm imagining it being used to scam people. I'm imagining it to leech off of performers who have worked very hard to build a recognizable voice (and it is a lot of work to speak like a performer). I'm imagining how this will be used in revenge porn. I'm imagining how this will be used to circumvent access to voice controlled things.

This is bad. You should feel bad.

And I know you are thinking, "Wait, but I worked really hard on this!" Sorry, I appreciate that it might be technically impressive, but you've basically come out with "we've invented a device that mixes bleach and ammonia automatically in your bedroom! It's so efficient at mixing those two, we can fill a space with chlorine gas in under 10 seconds! Imagine a world where every bedroom could become a toxic site with only the push of a button.

That this is posted here, proudly, is quite frankly astoundingly embarrassing for you.

People are allowed to recognize the realistic negative outcomes of technology, especially on a forum that frequently discusses the tradeoffs of modern, cutting edge technologies.
I think they mean speech "in the style of" the same as repaint this picture in the style of Van Gogh, so they will do the audio and put the correct inflection on things but then rerender it with the voice of Katharine Hepburn for example.

on edit: example of course showing the difficulty as so much of Hepburn was her inflection.
> they’ve got pretty serious potential for letting tech companies get paid for a seasoned voice actor’s unique delivery, tone, inflection, etc rather than the voice actor themselves.

I think you mean "steal the labor of an actor"?
None of this is wrong, but it's not really relevant and it's also missing important facts.
The degree to which automation is now essential is astounding. Every time a human is on the clean room floor you are burning dollars in terms of defects. For a process node at 3nm and beyond, I don't think you could achieve any yield at all if the automation rate were to fall even a few percent.

Does anyone have experience with carpal tunnel or RSI and mechanical switches? I’ve heard some people recommend ZSA keyboards for ergonomics but I’m unsure if mechanical keys are healthy compared to the softer keys of older ergonomic keyboards like the ones Microsoft made.
Another semi recent one were optical switches (uses a tiny laser for when to actuate, lowest latency).

Hall Effect is the one that's probably going to stay longer, due to the possibility of changing the actuation point to your liking.

Let's see. The word is "strawberry." I need to find out how many times the letter "r" appears in it. Okay, so I'll look at each letter in the word one by one.

First letter: s - that's not r.

Second letter: t - no, not r.

Third letter: r - yes, that's an r.

Fourth letter: a - not r.

Fifth letter: w - not r.

Sixth letter: b - no.

Seventh letter: e - not r.

Eighth letter: r - another r.

Ninth letter: y - not r.

So, I found two r's in "strawberry." Let me just double-check to make sure I didn't miss any.

Starting over: s, t, r, a, w, b, e, r, y.

Yes, the third letter is r, and the eighth letter is r. That's two r's.

Wait a minute, is there another r hidden somewhere? Let's see.

s t r a w b e r y.

No, that's all. Just two r's.

I think that's correct.

I think the application for this is to return some dignity and independence to people who have physical trouble washing themselves. Of course the form factor of the 1970 prototype wouldn’t do that, but that can be fixed.

It’s pretty unlikely that this is true for a few reasons:

- Doctors want the best outcomes for their patients. They’ll use whatever treatment is most effective

- Doctors want the best outcomes for themselves. If they’ve found an effective treatment that others are overlooking then they’ll seek to publish

- Patients want the best outcomes for themselves. If there is an overlooked treatment then they’ll communicate it to their doctor

it’s unlikely for an effective treatment to exist and be ignored by the medical community for decades just because something can’t be patented
simple perfect idea
> Moreover, Sufism historically developed within the framework of Sunni Islam, with most major turuq operating within Sunni legal schools and their founders being prominent Sunni scholars. So invoking Sufism as somehow transcending or negating these divisions misunderstands its historical development and position within Islamic tradition.

That's how the turuq and everything else around it originated and has been for the majority of Islamic history. A modern "modern" meaning of the term sufi is not particularly Islamic and ignores most of Islamic orthrodoxy. It exists but it doesn't have much in common with Islam except the name "sufi".
In my experience Ye Olde Web App backend services tend to be particularly bad with time because so much is generally done in the request/response model.

For business-logic reasons, where I've generally seen it fall apart is when things go from fairly simple things like "after six months of inactivity this account is considered idle" to more complex interactions of timers and activity types. "Move fast and break things", "just get to MVP" attitudes rarely have the discipline to formally draw all the distinct states out as the number of potential states starts to exceed a couple dozen.

Identety - an open-source Identity Provider
Hi HN,
I'm building Identety, an open-source Identity Provider implementing OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect. After years of working with identity systems, I've found existing solutions are either too complex, expensive, or inflexible for modern development workflows.
The core functionality will be open source from day one, with a parallel cloud offering (identety.dev) for those who prefer managed hosting.

Tech stack (in progress):
---

- NestJS framework

- PostgreSQL with Drizzle ORM

- OpenAPI/Swagger docs

Core features (all open source):
---

- Full OAuth2/OIDC implementation

- Support for SPA, server, and m2m clients

- Role-based access control

- Type-safe from DB to API

The goal is to democratize access to enterprise-grade identity management. Whether self-hosted or cloud-hosted, organizations will have access to the same robust core features.

Github: https://github.com/identety
Good mechanical keyboard can easily cost more than hall effect ones. It got worse when hotswappables came out and paying another hefty sum for just the replacement switches became easier / more acceptable.
