FWIW, I'm not necessarily envious of Musk, et al.

With that being said, I'm not sure personal bankruptcy is a particularly meaningful risk when the individual in question can enjoy substantial riches by sheepishly(?) returning home to the care of their parent(s).

Granted, neither you nor I know if this is an option for Musk, but given that his mother speaks quite fondly of her son in public, it seems reasonable enough to me to believe that it is.

What I'm trying to say here is: Musk's risks are not mine. Would personal bankruptcy result in both he and his offspring living in poverty?

Celebrating someone for having taken a risk while omitting what exactly was on the line for them is a debate tactic built on a false equivalency which can be used as a cudgel to beat opponents down in arguments if its foundational trick goes unnoticed.

It would not surprise me if most people could not tell whether some story about the human condition is human or AI generated. Excluding actual visual artists that have specific context of the craft, most people already can't tell AI art from human art when put to a blind test.
You're likely right here, combining two trust systems does add complexity without solving the core problem. While browsers requiring CT was a great step forward, it's surprisingly under-utilized by orgs. I wonder if this is due to limited tooling for log interaction, or just general lack of awareness?
The WebPKI is drastically different than it was in 2012. Browsers all run their own root program. Certificate Transparency was not only launched (in 2013) but is now effectively mandatory for all CAs. Some of the largest CAs in the ecosystem were surveilled, had misissuance detected, and were put to death by the browsers. In 2010-2012, companies were still being sold CA:TRUE certs so they could intercept traffic on their own networks; now that would get your whole signing CA burnt.

It's OK not to pay any attention to the WebPKI! It's a whole specialized thing. But that's what you'd have to do to reach the conclusion that "not much has changed". The years following 2012 were the most momentous in the history of PKI.

> The US, UK, EU and realistically most developed countries I would say have fairly similar quality of life within margin of error.

Ahem... Have you seen the standards in the UK get diluted year after year post-Brexit?

There's more to the story than the listed examples.

Environmental standards dictate your risk of developing various diseases later in life so are a big difference in quality of life. E.g., if you drink tap water from UK vs other countries, with high PFAS levels, where it essentially comes from a spring in the mountains - that's a huge difference.

Another difference is job security which again has a huge impact. Consider France: If you get an unlimited contract at a company you're essentially set for life (unless the company goes busy, or you mess up in a very bad way). Compare that to the scare many US dev employees hat to ensure in spring 2023 when all the big tech companies were doing layoffs. Also, France had a much shorter work week.

So, no, quality of life doesn't even compare remotely between these countries. Only perhaps for the upper 3% it is similar - if you're an average tech dev, your life will be much much nicer in Paris than in a random SF/LA suburb.
The classic from which all this comes is the UK bus system. You had the driver and the conductor. Equivalent jobs, from an equivalent background, with equivalent lifestyles away from work. But drivers sat and the conductors stood. Very, very different outcomes.

There is a lot of utility in bypassing the credit card company cartel which have been abusing their position to create a pseudo government to shut down or kill the value of (maybe to make them easier to buy out?) targeted businesses.

Thailand is an amazing country and dollars/euros/pounds go a long way. But there are also a ton of Westerners who either ran out of money (or never had any) who live like leeches and even some who "begpack." Plenty more who just barely get by as a language instructor or such.

I'm not claiming there are no productive or welcome foreign retirees -- there are many. But I was responding to "xenospn"'s comment that they bring in money for free, which is absolutely not universally true.
How is that different than tests? Or is it just that the tests aren't used as context when creating the app?
I think generic metric metrics like GDP PPP have to be put into context. When I was in China I was shocked by how much stuff there was. Not even nice things, but stuff to the point most westerners would consider cluttered.

Rent was also super cheap.

On the other hand iPhones were pretty expensive. Enchiladas were super expensive too.

These aggregated stats have to guess what you’ll buy and base their estimate off of that. Your actual financial situation will be very dependent on what you need to buy.

It's fascinating how much understanding of the world is being extracted and learned by these models in order to do this. (For the 'that's not really understanding' crowd, what definition of 'understanding' are you using?)

As far as I see, tech has destroyed the “legacy media” almost completely. Only the older generation pays any attention to it: all the young people get their news from TikTok and podcasts; even the older generation has gotten brain rot from falling into Facebook/Youtube attention algorithm hell. And that is just one part of it.

Look all around you and tech is everywhere, from apps to hail cabs to get groceries. Our lives are now so fully immersed and our decisions dictated by tech companies its fucking insane. That is a lot of power.

The wealthy (who do most of the polluting) will push any extra cost in taxes onto consumers and then continue polluting. The only way that a tax would help at all is if it were so expensive that many people were forced to stop driving and even then the usefulness is reduced by the fact that major polluters often have plenty of money and will insist on pushing any extra costs to them onto others. That means no reduction in the number of semi-trucks on the road, no reduction in, or penalty for, the pollution they cause, and the consumers getting sick by the dust are now also getting screwed by higher prices.

At best, you can be an external observer. You can't truly understand what the person is experiencing.

A common thread I see among people with brain damage is that they don't recognize it. For example, with patients with hemispatial neglect [0], if you ask them to draw a clock, and then only draw the right-hand side of one with the numbers 12 through 6 and they don't draw 7-11, then try to ask them where the 9 is, they might insist it's there. If you ask them to point at the 9, they'll either point to the wrong number or not point at all. And if you tell them they're not pointing or are pointing to the wrong number, they'll insist they're right.

But even with all that knowledge, it's still hard to imagine what that person is actually experiencing.

Bingo, that's me!

I suspect the OP didn't actually read the post.

1. As you pointed out, it's about getting the feature working, enabled and contributed into Ollama, not in llama.cpp

2. Digging through git commits isn't useful when you work hard to squash commits before merging a PR, there were a _lot_ over the last 5 months.

3. While I'm not a go dev (and the introduction of cgo part way through that threw me a bit) there certainly were technicalities along the way, I suspect they not only didn't both to read the post, they also didn't bother to read the PR.

Also, just to clarify - I didn't even share this here, it's just my personal blog of things I try to remember I did when I look back at them years later.

It's a test in the sense that it's meant to validate functionality. You're correct there.

The endpoints we poke at are provided as context when creating the application.

Our approach evolved to be more liberal in what was required to pass. So instead of looking for an HTML element with id="foo" we accept a 200 HTTP response code. It's subtle but had a huge improvement in the end user experience.

Citing the article and helix tests:

tests:
- name: addition_test
steps:
- prompt: "What is 2 + 2?"
expected_output: "4"

We would change expected_output to be "integer" or "not an error".

Open-Source Boilerplate for Startups: Kubernetes, React, Spring Boot, and More
Hi HN,
I'm a software engineer with over 15 years of experience building enterprise apps. After working on countless SaaS projects, I decided to package the framework I’ve been using into a boilerplate that founders and developers can use to prototype SaaS apps quickly.
This boilerplate includes Kubernetes, React + TypeScript, Spring Boot, Keycloak for auth, and a full observability stack (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Tempo). The focus is on using free and open-source technologies, so founders don’t need to pay for things like authentication but still get enterprise-grade features.
I’d love to hear your thoughts! Here’s the landing page: https://www.codesine.dev

> Brain work for me is like muscles for others - if I don’t squeeze out every ounce of energy from my brain with problems all day, I feel like I haven’t lived a full day. Many people prefer good workouts instead, if they don’t their body is punitive with restlessness and sleeplessness.

I need both.

Too little brain work and my thoughts are racing (unproductively) and my sleep needs fall down to ~4h (happens on vacation) which isn’t actually enough to make me feel rested.

Too little physical activity and I’m restless and can’t focus, can’t sleep, and generally stuff falls apart.
Even if not zero, retirees' income is much lower than working people on average, and that income is taxed at lower rates. Further, tax paid to the US doesn't help the retirement country.
I think it's a pedantic distinction. Affording something always implied some level of comfort: you wouldn't say you can afford the car if you are paying most of your spare income on it, even if you can pay for it technically. Spending 50% of your income on rent may be feasible for many, but to the extent that people are unhappy with it, it is unaffordable.
I don't think it's that simple, for at least two reasons I can immediately think of:

1) Several Americans live paycheck to paycheck with no significant savings outside of property either. One unexpected emergency is enough to empty the savings of most Americans [1](https://www.yahoo.com/news/one-emergency-away-study-shows-22...). The idea that Americans make more money and that makes up for the difference just doesn't play out in reality for all but the richest and luckiest.

2) Taking a 30 day vacation and coming back to the same job without any threat of repercussion is much more valuable than simply 30 days worth of saved wages. The average American worker can't just take 30 days off, even as leave without pay, and expect to come back to the same job. If they want a 30 day period with no work, the vast majority of American workers will have to quit their current job and then hope to be able to find a new one later - which certainly isn't a given if you're working unskilled jobs to begin with.
> That's a chronically online take, but it's completely wrong. Immigration demand to the United States is extremely high, even for jobs that don't pay high salaries.

I would complement that it's completely wrong as long as you're unaware of the hidden health hazards the US poses (which are a consequence of low regulation). These won't affect your day to day life and thus are easily overseen, and are invisible - unless they start affecting you years down the line. Most people are uneducated in terms of en

Examples are the superfund sites in California, the high sugar added to most foods, etc.

Even if you live in the top 1% it's hard to escape these - if your company office is near a superfund site (eg Nvidia HQ) then good luck, your money won't help with that. Yeah you can buy organic foods but if you're going to a restaurant with friends you'll still have to deal with bad quality ingredients.

I'm often amazed how nad the internet it is too when I talk to friends in Silicon Valley.

Bottom line: your high earning salary can only get you so far to offset and insulate you from the health hazards living in a low regulation society impose

Certificate Transparency is pretty significant, arguably! It makes bad behavior much more transparent, at least.
I disagree. When one demonstrates contempt for the public we should be inclined to pay less attention to their opinions on public welfare.

I have found Android codenames to be a nightmare. Docs will sometimes refer to a codename, a version, or an SDK level. Why do we need three pointers to the same thing?

The “external index build” idea seems pretty interesting. How does it work with updates to the underlying data (e.g., new embeddings being added)? For that matter, I guess, how do incremental updates to pgvector’s HNSW indexes work?
Perhaps they are like me and have additional sensitivity to yellow and UV. Things which are dim or nearly-invisible for most are moderately visible to me, like the Pleiades for an example.
I don't really feel like bootstrapping is that much work, since you usually need that public key to deploy the whole clojure anyway.

Also, SCPing the file over is bad for reproducibility.

Markets are not a zero sum game. When the price goes up, it goes up for all holders.
Each transaction has a buyer and a seller. So in that sense it is a zero sum game. However the total market cap can go up and down and create value out of nothing (just like stocks).
A society that bans the sale incandescent light bulbs and washing machines that can be set to rinse clothes with warm or hot water is not a low regulation society.

I am wondering if this sort of thing could be used in the real world, in particular, as navigation helper for a blind pedestrian. Products like Orcam have shown a cam + headphones can more or less easily be packed onto some glasses (for OCR). Navigation helper tools exist since the 80s, but all they basically did until now is scan the environment in a primitive way and use some sort of vibration to alert the user. This is very unspecific, and mostly useless in real life. However, having a vision AI that looks down the path of a blind person could potentially revolutionize this sort of application. For obstacle detection and navigation help. From "Careful, construction site on the sidewalk, 20 meters ahead" to "tactile paving 1 meter to your left". Lets take the game to the streets! If the tech is there, that sounds like a good startup idea...
It’s not very nice to call someone a butthead, but to sue over it just sort of makes their case.
