Germany is IBM. Existing industries are too valuable and influential, and shifting something as entrenched as German auto industries is an expensive, difficult endeavour that isn't immediately as profitable as the existing business.

At least maybe we'll get to stick around as business consultants and selling mainframes to a handful of companies convinced by "nobody was ever fired for buying German".

Good luck man, glad you had a great two years, thanks for sharing!

Also, keep operating costs super cheap so you can keep the side hustle going and watch it grow over years. Don't shut it down unless you have to.

To make $600/m you would have to invest $180k at 5%, so from that perspective you have created something valuable already.
Right, the data is worth nothing without additional info.
I was curious what happened to the programmer Chris Sawyer. From Wikipedia:

> He volunteers with the media team at a local primary school. Sawyer travels the world to visit roller coasters as an enthusiast, and gave his "coaster count" at 770 in 2024.

Here's a video of him checking out a roller coaster https://youtu.be/UU73g72NTHc
> The big advantage of Make is that it is probably already installed.

...unless you're on Windows, like me!
There are plenty of contexts where you won't have a compiler today - embedded (optimize for space) and very security hardened deployments (minimize attack surface).

Historically people used to sell compilers - so minimizing installation to dev machines probably was a savings (and in those times space was at a premium everywhere).

That said - I am with you, give me any other programming language besides shell!
Of course I would also want the information from your second question, but it never occurred to me that asking directly would get me that information. I guess if it's a leaf node they might just tell you the truth, but in general you'd expect the interviewer to say what they think you want to hear wouldn't you?
I'm not familiar with workday and new to coding. Is this beneficial compared to scraping company pages because workday will have consistent structure across companies?
It would be quite different from Earth in lots of ways.

The most habitable region would probably be the twilight zone but “life will find a way” as Jeff Goldblum famously said. Life would have been evolving for billions of years in that environment before intelligence arose.

The temperature gradient might not be as nuts as you’d think. A thick atmosphere would develop powerful prevailing currents that would move heat from the hot side to the cold one, basically a heat engine. It would keep the hot side from being insane and the cold side from being cryogenic. My guess is that the far poles would be extreme but anywhere from 1/3 to 2/3 of the non-twilight sides would be potentially habitable by something.

If there were large oceans you'd get prevailing currents there that would move heat too.

There’d also be a water cycle. Imagine regions of the hot side where it rains a lot. You might have this hot steamy jungle in eternal daylight, meaning 2X the energy available for photosynthesis.

There’d probably be critters that would migrate around. I can imagine stuff living on the night side by eating those, scavenging, etc.

I wonder if an environment with massive prevailing winds would drive the evolution of wind energy harvesting? Imagine a big tree like thing with big leaves or vanes shaped to flap in the wind and specialized cells that use that mechanical energy to make food and nutrients. Muscles go from sugars to motion. Seems plausible that something could go the other way, especially with billions of years of evolution and a massive amount of energy available that way.

If that kind of thing evolved you could have wind powered ecosystems on the night side and solar powered ones on the day side.

Lots of possibilities.
Hey! Author of the blog here. The current implementation uses llama.cpp GBNF which has allowed for a quick implementation. The biggest value-add at this time was getting the feature out.

With the newer research - outlines/xgrammar coming out, I hope to be able to update the sampling to support more formats, increase accuracy, and improve performance.
Yeah it’s hyper-localized in the cities. There are 1,900 law enforcement agencies in Texas, 87 of them in the Houston area alone.

Here’s a list of the law enforcement agencies in the Houston Area: https://hapca.org/Member%20Agencies/member-agencies

They get as local as a department for just 150-300 acres of Brazosport College / Rice University or the Tiki Island Police Department covering a village of 1,100 people, despite being just a 5-minute drive to Galveston (a city of 53,000 people)

I don’t think the problem is local vs national police. Either way the national culture can be poor overall (as it is now) and each local area can have widely different quality (as they do now)

esbuild is a bit unfair example because Go is really great fit for this kind of job, it does a lot of I/O, it allocates a lot, and then it just dies. evanw even tried to use Rust at first but it was slower than Go version.

Most people I communicate regularly with have messages from me from both accounts, so if I lost one, I could carry on communications until I established a new alternative.

All important subscriptions using one account for contact, I use the other for an alternate.

Phones were expensive, in 1960, you’re looking at the equivalent of a $75/mo bill today. The median income then was about $58k 2023 dollars, about 18% less than todays median income.

Also, urban apartment buildings weren’t always wired and while traveling you didn’t always have phones in motels. My grandfather had a bar whose clientele was mostly from a shipyard. When they’d furlough the workers for a retooling or something, he’d close the place and work as musician in a resort town for a few weeks - he’d send a postcard with a pay phone for folks to call at a certain time window.
How would we do that?

We will probably just keep downgrading its probability into more and more absurdly low values.
Thanks for the tip!

> I think there would be fewer instances of reluctant prosecution if the cops were not from the local area.

A consideration: One form of community policing uses officers that live in the area they patrol. The notion is that police will better know and protect their own community.

To support your larger point, it is my experience that there is little oversight of LEO at the peer level. ex:When meaningful oversight of county/city police happens, it is typically by state or federal LEO authority.

So we have a system that is capable of doing what needs to be done. However, it likely has a tiny fraction of the resources (and will) necessary to broadly keep Americans safe.
For email which is the most important to get back under your control simply buy a domain and then there are plenty of options for email hosting (including Gmail, but you cannot be locked out now).

This is very misleading.

The platform flags only a small subset of the offers as supposedly unlisted (small “U” tag).

Moreover, I checked one with a unique title and I found it listed on linkedin - so even those can be listed.

Also, this is a paid product that offers no substance without subscribing - I wouldn’t submit this as “Show HN”.
It’s worth considering why some writers feel the need to puff themselves up with ridiculous macho fantasies about munitions. It reeks of insecurity like they’re trying to cosplay as Sebastian Junger.
In the past, BASIC was certainly the easiest programming language to use, but ironically, many newer programming languages are now actually easier to learn. Yes, BASIC is easy, but Python, PHP, and C# are actually just as easy as the old syntax when it comes to web based solutions.

You’re commenting in a thread about a MacOS Chromium version.
Sure llama.cpp does not do all of that, except that it lets you curl model from public and free to use endpoints, it does that. But SDK? - fuck that. Load, unload and startup services - who is even need that ? All this value is so minuscule compared to core functionality provided by ggml/llamacpp.

But this submitted link is not even about all of that, it is about what really llama.cpp does not do - it does not write more lines of marketing material than lines of code, which is that marketing material is about, lines of code that really just wrap 10x more lines of code down the line, and all of that by not making it clear as day.
Looks like the price went up to $15.49 within the last ten minutes. Supply must be limited. Demand must be soaring.
So this statistic means most people are not living paycheck to paycheck right? (Although I didn’t think that “paycheck to paycheck” meant you would be ruined by an unexpected $400 expense)

Anyway, it still doesn’t seem like most people live paycheck to paycheck, according to your link:

> Some financial challenges, such as a job loss, require more financial resources than would an unexpected $400 expense. One common measure of financial resiliency is whether people have savings sufficient to cover three months of expenses if they lost their primary source of income. In 2023, 54 percent of adults said they had set aside money for three months of expenses in an emergency savings or “rainy day” fund—unchanged from 2022 but down from a high of 59 percent of adults in 2021.
Also, there's no way to delete your account, or remove your email. Which is not just frustrating -- it's flatly against GDPR, CCPA, etc etc.

I relatively recently was looking for a new job, so I was curious to see how well my own search process compared to this. Then I was mildly annoyed to discover that they require email signup to actually view any details about the company or the job. So I give them my email. And then I was even more disappointed to discover that they require you to pay money to even see the link to a single actual job posting. Sorry, not gonna do that if I'm just trying to scratch the curiosity itch. So then I go to delete my account, and... nothing. No can do.

Honestly one of the quickest turnarounds from "oh, neat" to "jeez, what a disappointment" that I've had in recent times.

After coming back to this to see how the conversation has evolved (it hasn't), I offer this guess: the problem isn't at the object level (i.e. what ML research has to say on this) nor my willingness to engage. A key factor seems to a lack of interest on the other end of the conversation.

If you’re scripting on Windows, it’s better to use PowerShell instead of batch. Compared to Bash, PowerShell is also better suited for large scripts because it works with objects rather than plain text. This makes handling structured data like JSON, XML, or command outputs much easier, avoiding the need for error-prone text parsing.
But they've never demonstrated the operation working on an animal...
Really? Because that’s how I feel too.
This article is conflating a few different things.

1. Cop buys the kinds firearms regular people can buy using law enforcement discounts and then makes an otherwise legal private sale to profit from this. This violates the terms of these law enforcement discount programs. Also, federal law requires people who buy and sell firearms for profit have a federal firearms license. These firearms sometimes are used in crime.

2. In some jurisdictions like California and Massachusetts, law enforcement can buy certain handguns new that normal people cannot. This isn't about safety as these handguns are not capable of anything that the approved handguns are not. It's solely a measure to harm the market for handguns by restricting the kinds of handguns available and increasing their prices. Cops can legally sell these unapproved handguns to normal people. The problem here, again, is doing it for profit. These firearms sometimes are used in crime.

3. Cops buying "assault weapons" and then making illegal private sales to normal people who can't lawfully buy these weapons. This is nowhere near as common as the first two scenarios.

4. Cops playing games with post-1986 machinegun regulations so that federal firearms licensees who pay a special tax can acquire machineguns to rent to the public at ranges or just for their own personal fun. These firearms, which often are significantly more dangerous than the kinds of firearms normal people can lawfully acquire, have never been used in a crime.

Scenarios 1 and 2 have no public safety impact beyond private sales generally. Scenario 3 is only problematic from a public safety standpoint if you believe "assault weapons" are uniquely dangerous, which they aren't. Scenario 4 has not resulted in any violent crime.
well, I typed 'Rust' and nothing happened lol :D
I’m not saying what we have isn’t an improvement on that. But it’s also maybe uncomfortably closer to that than we’re willing to admit to ourselves. And it is terrifyingly fragile.

Spread the right kind of vibes and misinformation and you can get enough of the population to believe anything. Hell, upset enough people and they’ll start to do it themselves.

We’ve already seen several countries essentially vote themselves into dictatorships based on misinformation. This may have been a near miss.
It’s my personal interview approach, I have a some 60 lines of code example I will ask questions about. What does it do, if I wanted to change x, where would I need to do this, etc. Seniors will take 30 seconds for the first two questions. I‘ve had junior applicants where I had to stop after 15 minutes of trying.
Yeah the UI would be tiny on a phone and I wouldn't play it that way. But on an ipad-sized device it's a dream.

That other game you linked is something else entirely. It's a modern mobile interpretation of RCT, but not at all related other than sharing a name and them. Where-as the one I linked IS the original legendary game. I would skip the modern mobile game personally, as I don't like that of game.

A lot of people adjust their lifestyle to paycheck, so little is left afterwards. Concept of savings is quite foreign to them, they want to enjoy life now. So paycheck to paycheck, while sporting newest highend phone or other gizmos, nice package of vacations through the year or just look at fashion clothes they wear and how often they buy new ones.

I mean I would fit in this category too for maybe past decade, little cash left over after paycheck but I did like exotic 5 vacations per year and invested rest into mortgage for mountain apartment for rentals.
> The only way AI can create information is by doing something in the real world.

Everything done is done in the real world, but the only way an AI can gather (not create) information about some particular thing is to interact with that thing. Without interacting with anything external to itself, all information it can gather is the information already gathered to create it.
> Do you think that a LLM/"AI" can reliably

No. LLMs definitely have uses where reliability is not a requirement, but that's one requirement which LLMs clearly never meet
Workday (if used, there are many other HRIS systems out there) is traditionally the source of truth as an HRIS (HR information system), is built into the org’s recruiting workflow, and the data has consistent structure. You don’t know where the data is coming from when directly on the company website, who is updating it and on what cadence (if any), etc.
I believe the disconnect is that many don’t or can’t jump through the hoops required for cashless.

b) relationship with Apple/Google to establish your MFA/passkey

c) then you can you use Apple Pay and banking apps on your mobile phone. (Does Google still have Google Pay?).
> I let my kids roam free here in the US (Columbia, MD), but the reality is that they don't want to because there are no other kids outside to play with.

I suspect there are no other kids outside because there are few/no desirable places for kids to congregate - places that are safe from moving cars, enforced property laws and adults with poor judgment.
The mechanism is kinda like the Spotify fake songs case: https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/north-carolina-musician...

In the same way, there was a fixed pot of money available split up by popularity, so making thousands of songs and streaming them as much as possible with bot accounts is profitable, even though each bot account cost a few dollars per month.

Here, the bots you use to juice your numbers don’t even need a subscription fee!
Kinda worrying in many ways really - police taking guns from their departments and selling them to criminals and then saying "...but but I had no idea this was illegal or wrong!"

I doesn't even pass the sniff test.

Either the police are total idiots with no concept of right or wrong let alone knowledge of the law, OR they are willingly corrupt and will brazenly break the law to line their own pockets and to fuck with the consequences, which incidentally are pretty negligible because of the corruption and blind-eye turning of their buddies.

Both options are pretty troubling.
I think the fact that Anduril in particular is involved is relevant because Palmer Luckey and the whole Thiel company orbit around it are extremely divisive and there's a military / civil divide along political axis in the US. Here in Europe that's usually not the case and Helsing being a European company in particular now with the security situation on the continent just isn't going to cause much furor.
The answer depends upon what risk you wish to protect yourself from.

If that risk is: my 'free email' provider decides to shutdown my email with no notice, then the risk mitigation is: "buy a domain name".

Do note that "buy a domain name" and "host your own email server" are orthogonal. You can "buy a domain name" and pay someone somewhere to "host an email server".

If your risk is: my domain name provider will terminate my domain name arbitrarily, well then, you are getting into very expensive territory where you'd have to become your own registrar, buy a TLD, and so forth. But then you just moved the risk up to "my TLD provider might terminate me".

Eventually, you realize that there is no way you can mitigate all the possible risks (not without personally owning all the world wide internet infrastructure), so you stop worrying about the "what ifs" that are so remote that they will never happen.

The simplest, lowest cost, and most risk removal is simply: "Buy a domain name". You eliminate so much of the risk there that the remainder becomes "very unlikely to happen territory".

If you own the domain name, then you get to move it around to different servers (and, as email natively supports 'backup servers' you even get to have multiple servers hosting it, provided you want to pay for the expense of doing so). This mitigates all the risk of any given "server provider" dropping you. You just move the domain to another and you are back in business as if nothing happened.

Your second step to mitigate risk is to never, ever, leave the only copy of your email archives on any of the servers you pick to host the email. For all of them, as soon as they receive the email (or as soon as you poll for an email) you download it to your local machine that you control (and backup). That way, any given server closing shop tomorrow, or canceling you tomorrow, has zero impact on your ability to access your archives of past emails.

Once you take those two steps, the remaining risk possibilities become remote enough that you really need not worry about them.
