You're right and your post sounds like you know the area. I went to HS in Collinsville (class of 1995) which is about 15-20 minutes west of Celina/Gunter and hasn't seen anywhere near the level of growth of other towns. I understand how long term residents are probably experiencing culture shock as the rate of growth is just unreal in some of those areas. A neighborhood at any density popping up in Celina would be a shock to anyone who grew up there. Another even more extreme example is Prosper TX which is south of Celina about 15 miles or so. When we played them in basketball Prosper still had the confederate flag painted in the middle of the gym floor.
absolutely not, maybe if you're living with parents and not paying for rent or groceries
Interesting: at first blush, it looks like it's clustered based on image similarity rather than time?

But that must be wrong, the README.md mentions it visualizing time.

I'd love to understand a bit more.

The README.md punts to Wikipedia on Hilbert curves, which is classic Wikipedia, makes sense if you understand it already :) and a 20 minute video on Hilbert curves, which I find hard to commit to, assuming its unlikely it touches on movie visualization via Hilbert curves.

It's definitely hard, and not your responsibility, to explain the scientific concept.

But, I'd love to have your understanding of how the visualization is more interesting.
Passkeys are primarily about vendor lock-in
Hear me out, THEN tell me how wrong I am :D

With Microsoft's latest admission that they're FORCING everybody to use passkeys, it really gives one a moment of pause to reflect.

In the mad rush to "improve security" many people seem to be missing the entire point in this debate.

Passwords are "something you know"
Passkeys are "something you have"

These two things are individual factors, and are not exclusive. Infact, "MFA" is to use two factors, not just one; and that is where the security comes from.

Switching to Passkey is nominal, at best, without having a second factor to keep it MFA.

If you care about security, don't delude yourself in thinking passkey alone is some sort of holy grail, it's not.

However, the push to replace passwords with passkeys is a fundamental shift in security paramount to changing gravity. And I, at least, think it's a serious mistake.

The reason is that passkeys require something you have. Either hardware or virtually with software, but if you, for some reason, don't have that thing, then guess what? For most lay users, it's a serious point of pain and friction. Those who care about security are willing to accept that, but EVERYBODY? Is it really necessary for every single person to stop using passwords? Seems like a myopic assertion that doesn't consider the users themselves.

The real problem here is evidenced by WHO is pushing for this. It is the platform vendors. Microsoft. Apple.

And why is that?

If Microsoft actually cared about their user's security, they'd have resolved many other problems before this.

Personally, I think is about one thing and one thing only: Control of the users, and vendor lock-in to their walled garden.
Does anywhere in America subsidize the cost of tearing down low density housing for the sake of building high density. It feels like property developers are more incentivesed to expand outward rather then upward
My comment said that the new process is painless and you say I am mistaken because the current process is virtually painless.

Also, virtually painless doesn't sound like painless to me. It sounds like a nice thing to tell people to convince them grinding up conscious creatures has no negative aspect.

"There's also the debate on whether one-day-old chicks are conscious, but I don't know the literature enough to have a strong opinion."

Why comment if you admit you don't know what you're talking about? There's lots of debate over whether you are conscious. Does that meaning grinding you up is plausibly a nice thing to do?
Inherited wealth was actually pretty rate in the history of this country, and is not as common now as many people think. Generational wealth until recently did not exist for most people.
The main consequence to the models is that whatever they want to learn about the real world has to be learned, indirectly, through an objective function that primarily models things that are mostly irrelevant, like English syntax. This is the reason why it is relatively easy to teach models new "facts" (real of fake) but empirically and theoretically harder to get them to reliably reason about which "facts" are and aren't true: a lot of, maybe most, of the "space" in a model is taken up by information related to either syntax or polysemy (words that mean different things in different contexts), leaving very little left over for models of reasoning, or whatever else you want.

Ultimately, this could be mostly fine except resources for representing what is learned are not infinite and in a contest between storing knowledge about "language" and anything else, the models "generally" (with some complications) will prefer to store knowledge about the language, because that's what the objective function requires.

It gets a little more complicated when you consider stuff like RLHF (which often rewards world modeling) and ICL (in which the model extrapolates from the prompt) but more or less it is true.
I think rather the issue being new library popping up is more about choosing the right tool for the right project.

If you know that your project is going to be small-scaled (a MVP or POC, a blog, a UI for your home lab, a static website, etc.) then mizu and tools alike may be a good choice.

If you know that you eventually want to have thousands of customers, with hundreds of collaborators, then it might indeed be not the best fit. Going with a more "common" framework like the big name React and Vue is probably better.

Web dev nowadays offer a wide range of application, so everyone needs is different so a one-size-fits-all framework/library is almost impossible to achieve in my opinion
It's split between the bot and the cloud! High-level decision making and training is performed in the cloud for performance reasons, and low-level control and inference of VLAs is performed on the robot which has a GPU onboard!

And yeah it's a powerful architecture, but it's not enough if you want to perform task, the VLMs orchestrate but you need another model for manipulation. And we put all of these together :)

Happy to chat further!
Assuming this was orchestrated by a nation state I wonder what the goal is? Just causing mayhem and incurring cost? Is there some specific function of these cables? Is this a negotiating tactic?

The guidelines discourage this kind of meta-commentary, and, more importantly, if you just mail hn@ycombinator.com, Dan can go look to see if there's a weird pattern of flags on the story.

If it's helpful: I flag most of these kinds of stories, no matter who the supposed protagonist is; I just think they're not a good fit for the site, and tend to generate truly awful threads. You can of course disagree! But I don't think anyone's going to accuse me of always seeing the US as the bad guy.
>They do not exactly like the idea of being "carpetbagged" or being "flooded with people who do not integrate" and those perceptions exist not wholly out of imagination.

They do exist wholly out of imagination in this case. You are professing your opinion and stating it as fact. As far as actual immigration statistics go, Indians are a tiny minority, disproportionately successful on wage, crime, and education metrics, and most importantly, legal.

>offers people from a handful of Indian states (and the highest castes).

I really do not get what caste has to do with anything. Which states ? What is the mechanism that favors people from these states or castes ? The legal immigration pathways to the US/Canada are either education or work, and neither of them has any preference for state, caste, etc.
The LLM is deciding to use that skill at that time. The skill itself was trained beforehand by the user like shown in the docs, and the agent has information about what kind of context the task can be used in and recognizes that here is the right moment

EDIT: I say LLM but it's really not just an LLM. From the outside perspective it looks like it because we decided to do so, but under the hood it's multiple models (as described in the post)
> A high-end iphone can record 4K 60FPS video and an hour's footage takes up 24 gigabytes.

According to https://support.apple.com/en-us/109041 4k60 recording in ProRes needs 220 MB/s storage, so an hour would be ~792 GB. Sure, you can choose to throw away most of that data with more lossy compression, but the barely-acceptable bitrates used by streaming services are not at all the right point of comparison here.
Given the resources on the device (it's a Nordic nRF52832 with 64 KB RAM), I'd expect any memory leaks or similar defects to show up well before a year.
My own take on relating scales geometrically: https://mlochbaum.github.io/BQN-Musician/theory/modulation.h...

It does seem that I include all Chapman's scales (while saying nothing about chords), although oddly enough he's chosen to use the modes of harmonic major but not those of its inversion, harmonic minor?

Edit: In fact I found the second link (first one's pretty vague and wasn't enough for me to follow the diagram) relevant enough that I added a paragraph to point out the connection!

This is just not true.

Maybe your area suffers from that, but mine doesn't.
>We're beyond engaging in these discussions as if they're in good faith.

Due to the inevitable abuse that unfettered viral social media, black-box algorithms and dark money in social media advertising lead to.

I 100% believe Elon Musk's PAC should be shamed and possibly punished for simultaneously running "Kamala stands with Israel" in Muslim Michigan while running "Kamala stands with Palestine" in Jewish Philadelphia. Then again, punished? Maybe America should be punished for electing these charlatans.

Support cutting taxes for the rich and recycling the bodies of the poor to feed into a new Monsanto product? Fine. But lie about facts, spin up millions of fake accounts to promote lies, and try to hide where the lies are coming from? Nah, fuck that. Social media should stop disinformation.

> It's never not going to be "controversial" for a faction to oppose things that are obviously bad for them.

If spewing disinformation is all the right has going for them, then I don't care what they think - cut them off. Just like I'm not surprised that CEOs hate unions and taxes.
I thought this was a nice article. I myself am in a non-open poly relationship and it works quite well for us. It's also pretty common in my community (homos) because we all like the same sex

I realize this post is more about hardware security than software security, but if the benchmark is unsigned code execution then the author should at least mention the 2007 (King Kong shader exploit) and 2009 (SMC hack — same root flaw but executed automatically at boot) methods of achieving the same:

I think a shutdown is the intended DOGE outcome. Nobody gets paid, but all the essential workers still have to work. As a shutdown drags on, they will stop showing up for work and can be fired for cause.

It could either accomplish their goal or backfire spectacularly. I doubt there is much room for middle ground.
What it would be the motivation? Anyway, Hanlon's razor is something hard to dismiss.
There will be traffic due to obstructions but it has been shown in many studies that even unobstructed traffic will result in traffic jams. The latter will absolutely be resolved with autonomous cars.
This is true. Sometimes I'll even address my wife as "dude"...
> People were in disbelief any of this was even possible.

Maybe my memory is that bad now in my old(er) age. But at that point in 2015, React had been a thing for about 2 years already. Ember had components even earlier than that in 2011/2012. Using components generally was a pretty well-accepted pattern from my recollection. The wars between the frameworks were all centered around render performance rather than APIs (i.e. which virtual DOM was best? do you even need a virtual DOM? etc.)

Not taking anything away from knockout per se, more just gut checking my own understanding/remembrance of that dark age.
21% of Americans have experimented with consensual non-monogamy at some point in their lives, far more than two decades ago

Not only do I not believe that statistic, but the footnote citation seems to be broken.

I've never seen a poly relationship make it past 10 years and I've never seen a poly relationship without significant issues that you wouldn't see in a monogamous relationship. Furthermore, there simply isn't enough time in the day for poly to work. You sleep for eight hours, work for eight hours, and then have eight hours in your day left for everything else. Even if you perfectly split your free eight between two people, you're going to quickly become a boring person whose entire personality is the fact that you're poly, god forbid you have a commute or a kid.
So last week my keys AirTag was dead, and I checked my notifications and I only received one notification in October that it had a low battery, but to be fair, I don't know exactly when it died between October and last week.

Maybe my batteries die completely before the second notification triggers.
this is actually fucking amazing :D
Ha! Stainless steel appliances. The new (Bosch) dishwasher gets nasty crap spilled down the front. No problem, it's stainless steel so get out the scrubby sponge. Ha. The stainless steel has a relatively delicate clearcoat on top of it which is now messed up. Stainless steel for show only, not for actual utility.
You’ll probably find that there is a forge near where you live that does one- or two-day courses on blade smithing. It’s a pretty good birthday gift.

Watch any episode of Forged In Fire to get a feel for what’s involved from a hobbyists perspective. The second half of each episode follows the finalists’ progress on the challenge in their own workshops - some have full-blown black smithing businesses, but others are (literally) backyard operations.
I agree with the other poster. Missourian and "y'all" is ridiculously less formal than "you guys". To me, "y'all" is specifically informal and is used in exactly that manner, even in corporate emails. It denotes a more conversational tone that's open to feedback. "You guys" does not exist within formal/informal for me, it's either, neither, or both, just depending on what you say around it.

"How are you guys doing today" spoken at a red lobster is absolutely fine, completely normal language, whether spoken by the president or by a child. It's the single most ubiquitous and wholly normal greeting that i know. Corporate really over does it sometimes
An underappreciated feature of nonmonogamy is that it makes ethical conflicts of interest a bit more challenging. This article doesn't discuss that explicitly, but does hint at it in some of the quotes
I mean, not much to say. They turned out to be productive, just fine. They had no problems grasping the codebase and what they didn't know they were able to learn. I had to admit to them that I didn't vouch for them during the interview process and was simply incorrect.
There are other lines of evidence. I don't know much about documented cases of feral children, but presumably there must have been at least one known case that developed to some meaningful age at which thought was obviously happening in spite of not having language. There are children with extreme developmental disorders delaying language acquisition that nonetheless still seem to have thoughts and be reasonably intelligent on the grand scale of all animals if not all humans. There is Helen Keller, who as far as I'm aware describes some phase change in her inner experience after acquiring language, but she still had inner experience before acquiring language. There's the unknown question of human evolutionary history, but at some point, a humanoid primate between Lucy and the two of us had no language but still had reasonably high-order thinking and cognitive capabilities that put it intellectually well above other primates. Somebody had to speak the first sentence, after all, and that was probably necessary for civilization to ever happen, but humans were likely quite intelligent with rich inner lives well before they had language.

Wow! Thank you for calling out that plugin, I hadn't see it. It is very useful and I love the better integration. I feel like with just a little more QoL stuff this plugin will be amazing. I am getting a weird hang after Aider "completes", the dialog hangs and takes 20-30 sec before the IDE becomes usable again.

Features I'd love:

* Reproduce the web/browser chat UI in the IDE, this is an easy concept to interact with vs a dialog that goes away after each run

* Provide tabs for multiple chats (each chat can have different files/history/etc)

* Allow multiple Aider processes running at the same time

But this is still super slick as-is, thank you!
Great project, congrats to the author if its around here.

I am working on something similar, but for the Cerebras CS-3 engine, visualizing stuff like this really helps when designing algos for these architectures.
The bottom of a ceramic mug works wonders.
The Alicia Keys demo in AVP is not a "stereo movie" and people didn't have the opportunity to hang with their favorite celebs in what feels like reality.

Lots of as-well-made-as-able 3D "stereo" movies in Disney etc that work on AVP beautifully. None of those are the same "you are here now" sense as the Alicia Keys demo.

Agree with you on Apple's seeming reluctance to empower a new UX/UI for the AVP affordances. Having a multi-window iPad strapped to your face is less compelling. Over the past 15 years one notices how much of iOS UI was invented by the market (pull down to refresh, for instance). Perhaps they want to see what people come up with for this.
I still have my Hotmail email and password from the 90s, when Microsoft was still like what is this internet thing. It's what I still use to login to Windows. I never migrated to SkyLiveOneLook or whatever they call their email thing these days.
How about remote software engineers who often equally befell this issue?
It's why Walmart (and all big box retailers) have different model numbers for the same brands even though the big picture specs are basically the same. Cheaper components and now they can't be priced matched, they're different models after all...
You could also use something like https://github.com/Breakthrough/PySceneDetect to first split the video into camera shots, and then grab a single (or average) frame per shot, leading to a cleaner result.
What's wrong with that statement? Can you access the filesystem without a dialog?
If you lose your passkey, why can you not reset your account like you would if you lost your password? These conspiracy theories are wild. Passwords suck. People reuse them. They use simple passwords. They are highly vulnerable auth factors. Passkeys are certificate auth for normies.

We have direct access to people's visual cortex and audio processing with handsets. Folks are receiving a stream of data tailored specifically to their life and experiences. It's pretty direct while still being indirect.

A simple example in legacy media is with Coca Cola. The ads show good experiences and attempt to anchor those emotions to real life events, and then the tag line Enjoy. So your enjoyment is tagged with having a Coke. Relatively straight forward.

These days, and this is still an emerging technology. Ads can be built and constructed on a per user basis. So rather than generalizing, you can synthetically anchor ideas onto individual real life emotions. And then at the right time have the systems massage in the idea of compulsively making a purchase. So while not strictly black and white spinning spiral. It's more interception at a particularly vulnerable moment. At least in my observations.

> I would want to know: what are the Mizu ways of modularizing code to increase cohesion and decrease coupling?

Ostensibly exactly what you would do with JavaScript.

Write a class or function closure similar to Vue composables.

It's not really the framework or library's job of making your code more modular; that's your job by writing good code.
While I can appreciate the sentiment, there's some ol'timey music that defnitley makes my ears bleed and has been known to make a Martian get all explodey
It can be a test of the response.

If you have a plan to sever every major fibre link into and out of some country then the only way to rest the effectiveness of your plan is to sever just a couple and see what happens.

The Cold War equivalent is to fly up to the border and see how the enemy fighters intercept your bombers.

Alternately it’s “making a concrete statement” in response to a thinly veiled threat.

E.g.: if a western government threatens to cut Russia off from the Internet they can cut a fibre to two to make a point that the west is just as vulnerable.
I took a class hosted by a group affiliated with my local renfest, which kind of kickstarted me to actually follow up on all the research I did. Having experienced instructors helped with the beginning learning curve, plus they pointed out early pitfalls to avoid (like gripping the hammer too tight). While useful, you definitely don't need to take a class to get started. There's dozens of tutorials on making a basic forge on Youtube - either coal-burning or propane - and you can get started with something as basic as a sledgehammer head for your anvil. Even a Harbor Freight cast iron anvil is enough for a beginner, although they're more likely to crack.

My starting costs were reduced by gifts, and my dad giving me an anvil he made with a piece of railroad several years ago. A basic gas forge from Vevor is around $75, but you can make your own small one from a coffee can, some refractory wool, and a handheld propane torch.

Right now, I just make tools and trinkets for myself. I'm _very_ amateur at the moment, I have more theoretical knowledge than practical experience. Once I get comfortable, I'll make more trinkets and tools for friends and family, then maybe one day make things to sell.
You appear to have confused elective with cosmetic. Most non-emergency procedures (including most heart surgeries) are classified as elective. There is some flexibility in choosing a provider and scheduling. These procedures are covered by insurance.
It's not perfect, but it's a very strong and useful signal.

Never in my life have I seen something with 98% and thought, well that was a crap movie.

And never in my life have I seen something with 35% and thought, that was amazing!

It's more in the 75-90% range where you have to consider the "dimensionality" of the thing, like whether it's a genre you like, or which individual reviewers match your tastes more precisely.
