Good thing to me (besides being an open spec) is their simplicity, with libraries such as FastMCP you can just bring stuff you already have implemented into Claude (or any MCP client).
Finally, someone mentioning Shor and his algorithm.

Shor’s algorithm is where the rubber meets the road for me. Synthetic benchmarks like what Google made just aren’t that useful imo.

There’s even a case to be made that all the work needed to make quantum computing reliable negates the supposed advantage and makes it no more unscalable than conventional computing. I don’t subscribe to that, but a successful Shor’s Algorithm attack on RSA (with enough bits) would certainly prove that wrong.
I've heard enough slop using the ElevenLabs voices that I can recognize them almost immediately now. But you're right. Higher end models with less familiar voices are harder to notice. One consistent failing is that they are always too perfect. No mistakes or signs of cuts to edit out where a human VA would have made a mistake. Its all very smooth and perfect. As if they nailed it in the first shot. Once the cheap/free models manage to fix that then we are in real trouble. Also, some really lazy slop creators don't bother to fix issues with pronunciation. But that's not the fault of the model really.

Most musicians, even really big ones, make the vast majority of their money from performing. So this wouldn't impact them much at all.
Your point is well made. If someone shoots you in a trailer park or the hood, nobody is launching a nationwide manhunt.

I redact my previous comment but leave it for posterity.
You may think Anthropic is different? It's the same UI + API. The difference is they don't create free accounts for personal emails. Sort of shadow banning. However they accepted my work email for free account and personal email for payed API. May be that's just me, I tried several personals.

As for model's quality they are both impressive. I haven't run meaningful comparison tests.
the problem with ads targeted to what I might like is they lead to more purchasing and spending, which is not without cost. something you won't buy without seeing an ad for it is probably an impulse purchase, and those are somewhat predatory.

it seems more reasonable to me to only advertise like that when a user signals they're interested in a particular type of product, not passively all the time.
"There is no consensus on the main cause of this surge in violence"

If I am not misunderstood, the consensus in Sweden and globally is that the situation is caused by lax immigration policies and taking in too many immigrants who have not been able to integrate to the society.
> how can I trust "Redis Inc." will not decide another small change which does not affect me

Good point: the key is that, starting from now, Redis Inc. should make small changes that positively affect you.
> Redis, Inc. could some day be acquired by Oracle

This is truly the nightmare scenario, and it'll be interesting to see how it plays out when such a thing happens. Not saying specifically with these two companies, but so far these licenses aren't particularly tested, and it seems we just can't really know what will actually happen without running the experiment.
The funny thing is we've now drifted to the other extreme. A bunch of RGB colors were named after pigments like vermillion or international klein blue that fall outside of the RGB/CMYK color spaces rendered by monitors and print (humans can see significantly more shades than either can reproduce), so now common parlance has compressed the world of color into the narrow band supported by modern technology.
Yeah, you can launch workflows directly from an HTTP handler. So here's some code that idempotently launches a background task from a FastAPI endpoint:

@app.get("/background/{task_id}/{n}")
def launch_background_task(task_id: str, n: int) -> None:
with SetWorkflowID(task_id): # Set an idempotency key
DBOS.start_workflow(background_task, n) # Start the workflow in the background

Does that answer your question?
Ornaments? Parents keep asking for my kid's to "create" an ornament. The fun of doing on paper is obviously great, but it'd be neat to convert it into something more durable too.

Yep, because everything is QR-based I can provide almost the same experience for people on their phones or those who opt for a card. The card even has a URL on it you can go to to claim the card (convert to a user account in the system) or a page you can go to and see the balance without needing to create an account.
Canadian doctors are extremely well paid by Canadian and international standards, just not by the standards of American doctors (who have to repay massive medical debt). Increasing their wages is not really feasible, outside of a few underpaid specialties.
I've done this a few times, both local shops and one further away (driveable, but I shipped to them instead). They take quite large margins (50-60% or monthly shelf fees) and for it to be profitable for both of us, they would have to price the pieces quite high. I need to find a product that has higher value that's not already done.

As for people coming to my house, I've completed nearly 1000 orders (most have done local pick up) and have never had an issue. Most often I leave the order at the front door and they either leave cash in mailbox or they e-transfer at pick up. Knock on wood, but I've never had anyone not pay.
> I also cannot really review code well in a PR - it's meaningless until I've worked on that code and thought "oh #$%#$%,

I kind of feel that way with code review in general. It's the author's code. I didn't write it. So I don't have much understanding or context (except for the simplest of PRs).

You can also avoid managing the stash in Git. By not using it.
> You cannot conclude that USA has excellent educational system if it delivers the great outcomes for certain advantaged subgroups.

To the contrary, you could totally conclude from this that US has excellent educational system at least with respect to these, as you call them, “advantaged” groups. At best you could argue that the system is not so excellent for other, less well performing groups. However, these less well performing groups still perform better in US system than matched groups outside the US, so it is indeed the case that for both higher and lower performing groups, US educational system beats all other systems around the world.
My (unpopular) take--programmers have been 'gassed up' by a decade of overcompensation + title inflation.

People think the high pay and the fancy titles* they're (often) given reflects their value or intellect*, even subconsciously, and they behave in such a manner.

*Sorry, I don't consider web programming (which comprises a majority of modern software development) "engineering"

*Many are some of the most intelligent people quite literally on Earth, or are otherwise exceptional.

I think it mostly just seems intractable because people at the end of the day don't care about local journalism (at least not enough to pay reasonable amounts of money for it). At the end of the day I think there are some problems that are pretty simple with collective action but people just don't want it badly enough to actually sacrifice anything (in this case, money) for it.

Where I grew up had a local paper, and the community was more than wealthy enough money to pay for it but circulation was ever decreasing. In my naive view it died a death of apathy more than anything else and it's not surprising there's not a satisfying solution to it.

> probably be a disaster

disaster is a strong word, but yes, it would definitely have issues. but would it be an improvement over what we currently have, for most people? that is the standard that matters.

no system will be perfect. i'd argue that no healthcare system will even be that good, knowing human nature, especially given the culture in the US which values the individual's right to obtain money over most everything else. but even given these facts, i think it's defeatist to think that this is honestly the best we can do.

Everyone won't be a software engineer but everyone can build
Fast fashion meets software: AI enables rapid, disposable apps tailored to niche needs. From workout timers to Chutes & Ladders spinners, bespoke solutions are now accessible to everyone. While true software engineering remains complex, AI empowers individuals to create artisanal apps for personal use. Expect a surge of niche tools improving everyday experiences. What have you built lately?
Late reply, but basically I would end up writing myself into a corner and discover that I didn’t have a great plan to get out of it (this exposes my tendency to skip the initial planning process and just write). Those are the moments I would like to put in front of me in order to take stock of where I’ve carried the story. I think it would be helpful to drop into the story at the moment I’m stuck and take a look around. Take in the scenery. Does everything look right? What’s missing? And most importantly, what paths forward present themselves in this scene?

It's not. Centralization of liquidity is better for everyone. HFT thrives on fragmentation of liquidity. HFT is not wrong, but fragmentation of liquidity is.

The niche I went into was making rolling trays I wouldn't mind my grandma seeing, because they don't look like the cheap steel Rick and Morty trays that they sell at head shops.

I don't know why I'm able to make so many sales. A lot of the other shops that are in this space don't sell as many, so maybe it is design + price point? At crafts shows (which I haven't sold at), similar sized but much "trashier" trays sell for double what I sell for on Etsy, but I'm not able to increase my price at all on Etsy (fucks the algorithm up).
I thought I remembered this model being released many months ago? Or is this a new update to the model?

> this will dissuade people from using OSI licenses

Yes, because other projects will follow the pattern of successful ones.

> this will dissuade people from using open source components in their products all together,

Yes, because now there is a very real risk that after you have invested in using an open source license, the owner might change the license on you, which makes potential users more wary of open source projects.

> this will dissuade people from contributing to open source

Yes, for similar reasons to the above.
The point is that Operation Choke Point was an actual operation, but Operation Choke Point 2.0 is not; it’s just a label that someone started using to try to generate sympathy for their private business goals.

Ask HN: Programmers, are we in a race to the bottom?
I am in the Northern EU.

I have no idea what is going on. But in my 24 years of professional programming, the job market haven't been this "strange".

By strange I mean there seem to very little jobs and the jobs there is, it seems that I can hardly get into the first round of interviews.

I am a normal bread and butter programmer. I know my abstractions; tcp, http, sql, patterns, different popular languages and I know different business domains.

But little does it matter.

The I wonder, who gets the jobs ? Is the lower wage juniors or is it special knowledge seniors ?

I have also thought about if nearshoring is a part of the issue? Cheaper wages ?

Have we entered the time where software development is democratised so much that we are simply fighting over the same jobs ?

Any suggestions or insights here ?

Thx
thanks. I am sad, but not that surprised, that a lot of people here are interpreting this as we claiming that we're already faster than sqlite all over.

I don't even care about being faster than sqlite, just not being slower, this early, is already the win I'm looking for.
I'm not responsible for making a web site owners business model work for them. I'm just filtering data that I downloaded from a publicly-available because I don't want advertisers tracking me around the web and profiling me.

Advertisers are welcome to treat me like a magazine from days gone by with lots of static images of their products and no code involved. If they don't like that, then I'm okay with going back to the pre-commercial web where people with passion built websites without trying to be the next big thing.

I don't really see the need to optimize on 0.03% fee of index ETF such as VOO or VTI. There are much more important things like liquidity, tracking error in whether a ETF is worth buying. Not paying reasonable fee on a service just guarantees some other nefarious ways to get back sooner or later.

yeah i should have said ashkenazi instead of mennonite, but i didn't want to come off as or attract a certain type of comment.

this is a real thing. Gaucher's disease, while anyone can get it in principle, is almost entirely a disease that afflicts ashkenazim. the treatment is cerezyme, which is one of the most expensive drugs, and you must take it for life.

and you missed the comment about sickle cell (only affects west africans and people of west african descent). which is now curable, but VERY expensive to cure.
I know this doesn't mean much, but I spent a lot of time outside of work helping to maintain the Redis codebase. I attended our meetings and responded to issues on vacation because I cared about the community, it was more than just a paycheck for me. I don't regret doing any of that.

> Those people have no self-reflection and in 5 years when their claims haven't come true they'll have already moved onto whatever the latest hyped up thing is.

Yeap. Just like there are interesting use cases for blockchains (note that I said interesting, not necessarily practical) and machine learning, there are interesting use cases for LLMs.

The problem is that people then come up with new applications "really soon now" and use that to hype up wallstreet.
Looking past the condescending "bright-eyed and bushy-tailed" description and the unfounded assertion that the number of years spent looking at something or a person's age put a ceiling on how informed they can be about it, she does actually discuss the unblockables right there in the middle of the essay, and the cash flow ("Whereas the people who actually make the product? They don't make any money."), and the paid editing ("They are suffering from, uh, a not very ethical PR person going in there."). And she literally says she doesn't trust Wikipedia's information. I don't know what you could be asking for, for an interview with this structure at this level of depth.

Post some examples and we'll see what you think of as bullying.

Also $3M is a hilarious undercount and shows your own lack of understanding, because what good is some metal without ops, software maintenance, and support services? Might you also count the lawyers who get editors out of jail, or the specialists who handle CSAM so the volunteers don't have to, or does that count as part of the jetset board too?

TBH both US and Sweden have comparable high wealth inequality, and very high ratio of mean/median wealth. Their rich want their poor to remain poor.
You just need to devise a system where the vast majority of universes give the right answer for this to work.

Start by at least having a universe for each possibility so that every code path is computed. Then add a mechanism to create many more universes when a correct result is hit.

So each wrong result has 1 universe and the correct result alone has 2^300 a universes. Run this. You now end up with the correct result 99.99999% of the time.

I’m not arguing on the above take or not fwiw, it’s just that it easy to see how this could happen in many worlds. Effectively error correction just becomes a mechanism to create more universes for correct answers than incorrect answers and it all works. In fact it’s very reasonable to think of quantum error correction this way (it really is a mechanism to favour correct answers being observed and in many worlds that means it creates more correct answer universes).
> The U.S. government wants everyone to abandon C/C++

That's the position of two federal agencies, namely, FBI and CISA. They don't describe how this change will reduce CVEs or why the languages they prefer still produce projects with CVEs.

I don't particularly hold the technical or social acumen of FBI or CISA in particularly high regard and I'm not sure why anyone would by default either. Mostly because they say things like "switch to python!" without once accounting for the fact that python is written in C.

It's an absurd point to invoke as a defense of this idea.
Commercial sites brought ad blocks upon themselves with malvertising an insanely obtrusive ads.

It blows my mind how people are so accepting of the status quo, especially on mobile, where many news sites will put a sticky ad banner on the top, throw a video ad on the corner (with a close button that's only 1/8" across, of course), and then every paragraph (which is only like 2-3 sentences) is separated by an ad. At any given moment, well over half my screen is ads, even after managing to close the video ad in the corner.

Browsing the web on a phone, I wonder how many bandwidth and battery is being used just to show ads.
A cynical view is that it's not just 2-3 providers, its any competition to their cloud-hosting business. See for example the recent wordpress drama, which concerns a small competitor.

SSPL and related licenses are ambiguous and scary enough to ward off anyone potentially competing with the copyright owner, and I doubt that's seen as a downside.

Hi, and congrats on the launch!

I'm curious about how this service compares to, say, the offerings of zero expense mutual funds from Fidelity of Schwab? I guess there's a lot more variety since I don't think those brokers have 50+ indexes.

Have you found or might expect to find liquidity issues or spread costs with fractional shares? I imagine that if you have an account with, say, $3000 that is trying to implement S&P500, the portfolio will me mostly if not exclusively fractional shares.

About positioning, I don't think I'd be the target audience since I just buy and hold $SPY, $VOO, $IVV. If you could convince me that I could implement, say, S&P 500 and be cheaper, more tax effective than holding those ETFs, that would be something interesting!
