> You are the one assuming things wrongly about me, you know absolutely nothing about what I know and don't.

I know you don't care to read about things you comment on and like to throw uninformative recommendations about what people working on a project should do, that directly contradicts the goal of the project and why developers started hacking on it in the first place. Seriously, how do you expect your low effort backseat comments to be taken? You don't think the very capable OS developers already know that reusing existing Software takes less time than creating it? Or maybe you're missing some context on the project your commenting on, like its entire purpose for being?

Andreas did not change his mind about SerenityOS which is still a hobby OS project for Hackers as it has always been. He just moved on to work on Ladybird full-time to compete as a mainstream browser alternative to Blink/WebKit which has completely different goals to SerenityOS which is no longer a supported target since it incorporates 3rd Party libraries.
As long as TSMC keeps improving die size it will keep getting incremental improvements. These power/thermal improvements are not really that much up to nvidia.

The intel problem was that their foundries couldn't improve the die size while the other foundries kept improving theirs. But technically nvidia can switch foundry if another one proves better than TSMC even though that doesn't seem likely (at least without a major breakthrough not capitalized by ASML).
Just the video:

Yes, I know. I've been on HN for almost 18 years and am #26 by karma on this site.
> Sometimes it's better to paraphrase dialog to reduce the amount of text that needs to be read

Please no. Some subtitle companies do think like this, and it's really weird, like when they try to "convert" cultural jokes, and then add in a bunch of more assumptions regarding what cultures you're aware of depending on the subtitle language, making it even harder to understand...

Just because I want my subtitles in English, doesn't mean I want all typical discussed Spanish food names to be replaced by "kind of the same" British names, yet something like that is something I've come across before. Horrible.
> The rest of the society should not participate in "delivering justice": obviously not by hitting them or torturing them, but also not by taking away their property or social capital.

Well said.
I felt he was rather calm given that he was inside a malfunctioning autonomous vehicle. If a human taxi driver drove me in circles rather than taking me to my flight I would probably send them the bill!
I'd still do the first tutorial above, so you can understand how to use VCV Rack, but here is a small tutorial (10 minutes.) That will help you understand what's going on under the hood of your favorite FM synths. He doesn't do this in the video, but I would attach the output to the oscilloscope module to get an intuition for why certain parameters affect the specific harmonics that give FM its characteristic sound.

Your FM synth at home is 100x more time complicated than this patch you build but if you grok what's going on here, you should have a better idea of what going on in your other FM synths.

Most of us, here on HN, don't want to read comments that, even if we agree with them, are poorly written or unoriginal.

Some days, there are political threads here on HN that are as high quality as one can find online. Other days it all goes wrong, and dang steps in.

My feeling about this article, which, as far as I noticed, does not even allude to current events, is that it's worth reading regardless of who happens to be president, and that we ought just to flag any dumb comments it attracts, if it does attract them.
As of yet big auto-subtitle providers like YouTube fails miserably at this, and as far as I've tested the Whispers they also do. Would be nice if embedding it wouldn't become the default.
If you have the luxury of requiring subtitles in English, sure. There's a huge scene of people making them and high quality subtitles available for pretty much everything. If you need subs in another language though your experience might change dramatically. Especially for any media that is old or less popular, in which case your options are probably either really bad subs, out of sync subs, or most likely, none whatsoever.
OpenSubtitles as a cache, maybe? (With their collaboration, of course.)
If you're already using Jellyfin, then why not? Don't want to complicate the stack?

WebGPU Sponza Demo – Frame Rendering Analysis
The most interesting TED talks (to you) are also presumably on topics that you’ve selected to watch. In random conversation, you may need to Taylor your responses to the situation. The idea that friends are the people who exclusively share topics of interest and therefore are infinitely interested in hearing each other speak is not realistic. This is a social skill that (s)he’s trying to develop.
Would be great to add a system of sharing the results instead of having to waste resources transcribing the same video over and over again with no chance of correction
In his defence, I am imagining this being a really stressful time for the passenger. Many people - most, even - would be panicking at this point, and people react differently and irrationally in these kind of not-in-control scenarios.
It’s different because you also get the complete office suite from Google.

Are you really saying the difference between $6/month for the lowest tier that you said is affordable and $12/month for a shared 2TB pool of storage would break the bank?
The big red button on the roof triggers the ejector seat. To stop you need to press the small blue button next to the cup holder.
VLC has a "check my media online" feature, next to "check for updates to VLC on startup" already. Could they offer subtitle downloads?

Previously, that was used for mp3 album covers or something?
I would like to piggyback on this sentiment to call out a common feeling in the US (and probably elsewhere).

When people are facing jail time, they are usually told to expect to be brutalized in prison by the other prisoners and guards.

Putting additional punishment in the form of abuse (physical, mental and sexual) and then putting the onus of that additional punishment on a vulnerable population is a recipe for disaster.

Prison is the punishment, anything on top of that is a crime and a lot of people turn short sentences into life by targeting other prisoners with certain crimes.

This culture of retribution runs deep.
What models are new enough to consider? Do any of these support ECC ram? And would you say mirrored ZFS is good enough for home use? Most of my storage is media for Plex or edited in Resolve and such. I have a 6x3TB zraid2 setup at the moment with aging disks (2015~), but looking to upgrade that. Not sure if I can go the route of just having 2x10TB or something instead, perhaps with a off-site backup to a identical system for the important stuff. Currently I rely on having the important bits copied several places, and just accepting I'll lose some data if everything catches fire here locally
Unless he starts invading Canada etc. Trump doesn't really affect me at all (other than through hard to predict global economic pressures, which aren't worth reading about others' guess/predictions) - HN discussing the feasibility of something similar happening in the modern US seems about the most interesting 'Trump stuff' I could read pretty much anywhere.

And that's assuming it is an intentional link anyway, article was interesting, doesn't mention Trump, and is timed to anniversary of Hitler's ascent to power.
My experience is that, for whatever reason, social interactions require effort, often seemingly more effort than the reward you get. That's not to say you don't bother - they are fun and nice etc. but that easy interactions with conversations free-flowing are rare.

My rough playbook:

- make opportunities for people to talk. Ask them things they can talk about at length. People who feel heard are more likely to listen

- create social opportunities where participation doesn't rely on talking. Cinema, games, walks etc.

- value 1:1 meetings. The dynamics are very different.

- really value groups and people with whom interactions are effortlessly fun. There's a limited supply of people like that in my life, so I really cherish and appreciate them

It often feels like I'm providing more than 1/N of the effort and less than 1/N of the reward. But I concluded that

- I still prefer that to no social interactions

- it might be a perception thing. Everyone always feels like they are doing more than their fair share

As to why I happens to you... Maybe you happen to like people with particular characteristics? Also bear in mind, if there are N people and everyone speaks for 1/N of the time, actually that's very little time per person - but for me for example, instinctively I feel under-heard unless I'm talking 25-30%+ of the time.

As to your wife, you can just directly explain to her that in general you expect to be heard and paid attention to, just as you listen and pay attention to her. Or ask her what about your interaction leads to such attention lapses.
Note that I was surprised to discover it was not possible to install Linux headless easily like on the SBCs. Also I decided to try out nixos but I don't really have the time and energy to learn a new paradigm and I will probably go back to Debian or similar when I have the time
People keep saying this, but I've yet to see a company follow through.
Loopholes of this kind exist these days as well.

When I was working for a major retailer, who, you'd assume would have thought about these things well enough, you were prevented from executing sudo, except for being able to use it for text editing (sudo vi). I needed to install some packages with a root shell at the time, so I used the command execution feature within vi to get that.
Android and iOS already support live captions and AI Accelerators are becoming more common in PC hardware. If you can generate it with little compute at home, then there is no need to set up a share system.

You also want local generation in a lot of cases. If you have your own videos you need to generate them yourself. For Accessibility it's fantastic if they can have subtitles on every Video.

If generating your own is fast and good enough and takes little compute, then it isn't needed to share them. Having subtitles generated by the best models and optimized by humans is better, but not needed in most cases.
Well, erratic seems like a bit of an exaggeration. It’s continuously driving the same circular route around a parking lot, but it’s not driving on a kerb or anything like that.

You can see on the map that it goes into the drop off lane, for some reason thinks it can’t drop him off, so drives back into the car park, turns around, and heads back into the drop off lane. It’s not like it’s stuck in full lock doing donuts.

Seems useful, but only half useful given that most structured interviews are more based on the role the candidate is applying for than the candidates resume.

So it might be good idea to ask for the user to upload the job posting/description as well, that way your GenAi engine can adapt the structured interview questions to what the target company typically asks for that kind of role.

Also instead of email it might be good to give a linkedin link option as well? That way you can:

1) Make life easier for the candidate as you can get the CV data out of his/her profile

2) Get richer data that can help you offer other kind of
career services in the future

3) Track which user that used your service actually landed a job that you trained him for
I don't watch it either, tedious unless got skin in the result, but my tastes aren't the public's.

Would be great if they wound back all the dainty fouls stuff though. Bring back two leg slide tackles etc. But they did all that precisely because the sport got so popular - costs of multi million dollar players getting legs broken wasn't acceptible.
Ergonomics have value in itself, dressing up DBs in good ergonomics around some applied use-cases has quite some value for companies to not have to deal with edge cases that email + spreadsheets will suffer from at scale, that's also why I do not understand Salesforce.

The products are clunky, difficult to integrate/use/deploy, a lot of times they simply don't work or require an immense amount of effort to be barely workable. It's really hard to understand the value proposition, I guess they might have very good salespeople reaching out to the right clueless people to pitch.
Show HN: DeepNode – A tool to search smarter and learn better
Hello HN! I recently launched DeepNode - a tool to simplify learning and research with a visual breakdown of any topic (and much more).

Think of it as ChatGPT (AI) + Structure + Google (Web sources)

When learning/searching for something, web searches can be time-consuming. AI chat tools lack structure and visual elements.

DeepNode provides an interactive breakdown of your searches, allowing you to explore the "breadth" of the topic & dive deep into the specifics.

How it works:

- Enter a topic

- Get a visual breakdown of your search

- Dive deep into specifics to expand the search

- Explore the related images and suggested reads

- Take notes on the fly

- Export the whole knowledge map as a doc (Think: your tailored research doc)

Who's it for:

- Developers

- Students and Educators

- Content Creators

- Researchers

- Basically, anyone who's curious...

Hope you have fun searching! Looking forward to any and all kinds of feedbacks.
A Mac mini is still significantly bigger than a Raspberry Pi 5. On the other hand, there are N97/N100 machines with 12GB of soldered DDR5 RAM, but they are also actively cooled and their smaller blowers are whinier than their bigger cousins.

A passive RPi5 connected to a small 4TB external SSD is an almost industrial device which you remember you have one because it becomes unresponsive to a power cut or something. They're that reliable from my experience.

I have a newly acquired habit of getting the thing which requires the least amount of maintenance for my needs. I can replace it with a more powerful, power hungry and noisier device if I really need that, however this is rarely the case for me, and I can use my laptop for that oddjob.
It can actually send to Google the information on what you are playing:

At $120 it's just not a very attractive price. You can get more powerful mini-pcs for $150, and microcontrollers with as many GPIOs for $5.
AI subtitles are just text representation of the sound track.

There is no need for artistic interpretation, substituting words, or hiding information. If it’s in the audio, there’s no reason to keep it out of the subtitle.

An AI subtitle generator that takes artistic license with the conversion is not what anyone wants.
Can it really be called efficient in the capitalist sense until they figure out how to actually turn this stuff into a viable business? Apparently OpenAI is even losing money on the new $200/month tier.

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/sam-altman-says-losing-money-...
I totally get this. When I'm watching videos for the purpose of learning a language, I want all the actual words in the subtitles. But if I'm watching just ot enjoy, say in a language I don't care to learn, I don't mind someone creatively changing the dialog to how it probably would have been written in English. This happens with translations of novels all the time. People even seek out specific translators who they feel are especially talented at this kind of thing.
This is a misnomer, Calfire does a lot of prescribed burns already. It's really difficult to do them safely around urban interfaces.
Could they unionize?
I know a little Spanish and even I get annoyed when the English subtitles don’t match what they said in Spanish. Of course I expect grammatically correct Spanish to be translated into grammatically correct English.
So a direct quote by the director of the cdc is poor reporting?

> In the clip, Dr Fauci says “There’s no reason to be walking around with a mask. When you’re in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better and it might even block a droplet, but it’s not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is. And, often, there are unintended consequences — people keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face.”

Trust us, there's no reason to be walking around with a mask.

And then a few weeks later, again "trust us, you need a mask".

That would not work. It's the company who's responsible for compliance with EU laws and regulations in this case, not the user. So, if the company allows EU users they are de facto operating in the EU and thus out of compliance with the training data transparency law cited above.
Why are we still talking about this? Computers are INCREDIBLY efficient and still become orders of magnitude more efficient. Computation is really negligible in the grand scheme of things. In the 80s some people also said that our whole world energy would go to computations in the future. And look today. It’s less than 1%. We do orders of magnitude more computations, but the computers have become orders of magnitude more efficient too.

As another way to look at this, where does this questioning of energy use end? Should I turn off my laptop when I go to the supermarket? When I go to the toilet? Should I turn off my lights when I go to the toilet?

My point is, we do a lot of inefficient things and there is certainly something to being more efficient. But asking “is it efficient” immediately when something new is presented is completely backwards if you ask me. It focusses our attention on new things even though many old things are WAY more inefficient.

It's entertainment. Dogfights in space with pew-pew lasers are entertaining and make intuitive, if not technical, sense to people who understand how aircraft work. Drones making slight corrective maneuvers and sniping each other at light-second distances isn't entertaining.

85$ is not a lot of money in China either. Double so for English speaking help. Triple so when you get assembled PCBs at the end.

The theory I've heard is that where American business culture prioritizes profit, Chinese businesses are chasing market share. Thus you get combinations like Rumba and Kin Yat. Roomba subcontracts all manufacturing to China, earns incredible gross margins, while the Chinese manufacturer is free to make competitors. In time the competitors tech reaches and exceeds the original. Now Roomba is left with low/mid tier product lines and Chinese companies control the majority market share.

Great while it lasted. Lots of profits for over a decade. The profit maxing strategy just lacks a future.

I suppose this feature should have been termed closed captioning and not subtitling. It seems you're not going to get much sympathy for human translation here.
It seems like some kind of review process would need to be included to reduce abuse possibilities.

But yes, that would be quite nice, if there are enough people who don't mind uploading the file names of the media they play (or some other unique media identifier?) along with the subtitles to that service—and with user credentials? It would certainly need to be opt-in, which makes one wonder if it would be much effective at all.
You can turn off self-view by default.

Quality definitely can be lacking, on the other hand, it is significantly better than no subtitles at all.
