>I'm curious what the driver for reproduction will be in the future

Leaving behind and continuing your legacy and heritage.

Personally I have no interest in pushing my blood, interests, and achievements and their endurement upon my hypothetical children, among many other reasons I have no interest in having children, but if someone wants to be that person then more power to them since it's none of my business.
Is this not in Marvel Rivals also? Think it’s in too many things at this point.

We would need Valve to enforce.
While I do that from time to time, and even sometimes tastes "better" is definitively another taste, and much less convenient, which the time to peel and cut, you are look at 1Hs of work, vs. 10 to 20 min.
Yes, this is true. At this point, I would lean to that and panic. But it's also true that one can have already setup their editor to the REPL of an environment, obviating the need for using other editors and still retaining the type of control one would have in their editor.
There's a market not described here: bioinformatics.

The owner of the market, Illumina, already ships their own bespoke hardware chips in servers called DRAGEN for faster analysis of thousands of genomes. Their main market for this product is in personalised medicine, as genome sequencing in humans is becoming common.

Other companies like Oxford Nanopore use on-board GPUs to call bases (i.e., from raw electric signal coming off the sequencer to A, T, G, C) but it's not working as well as it could due to size and power constraints. I feel like this could be a huge game changer for someone like ONT, especially with cooler stuff like adaptive sequencing.

Other avenues of bioinformatics, such as most day-to-day analysis software, is still very CPU and RAM heavy.
Thanks again for a nice demonstration of having to reinvent the wheel to produce a poor-man's buggy reimplementation of jQuery.
The point was that donating 8m to charity wouldn’t help because too many things are wrong. This is obviously incorrect, prima facie.
Don't want to start a flame but what is missing to the children is exactly being bored.

We used to bring paper and pen to have them draw.

If you had the most knowledgeable entity ever at your disposal, would you only use it to ask questions within your 'field of expertise'?

AI used this way isn't replacing expertise - it's helping people explore ideas, generate hypotheses, and find plausible answers to questions that lack definitive solutions.

Many research problems, especially in niche areas, suffer from limited attention due to scarce expert resources. Curious amateurs can now do initial exploratory work using tools like o1. Maybe it'll surface interesting directions for experts to examine.

If they end up actually shipping this, lots of people will buy these machines to get an AArch64 Linux workstation—even if they are not interested in AI or Nvidia GPUs.

At $3,000, it will be considerably cheaper than alternatives available today (except for SoC boards with extremely poor performance, obviously). I also expect that Nvidia will use its existing distribution channels for this, giving consumers a shot at buying the hardware (without first creating a company and losing consumer protections along the way).
The crypto prices were so unrealistic. I was able to just keep buying Bitcoin with 2x leverage when it was low and make millions when it subsequently went up after. I barely paid attention to any other ways to make stimulation. Please implement liquidation mechanisms and more volatility.

Thoughts and Lessons for Planning Rater Studies in AI
I believe the killer feature would be sensible embedding tools with respective functions that support generating facts about internal data.

You generally cannot just push your data tables with millions of entries to your AI, but you can reduce them to statements that the AI then can work with.

It would be quite nice for training if a company can embed their product catalogue or their process instructions. Or technical data and common faults for customer support.

Also production monitoring would benefit from AI, but you also need to reduce the large amount of data into congestible statements. Usually the same work you do when you build some kind of dashboard.

In most cases that would mean you either run an AI locally, which I would heavily prefer, or you serialize the result of said embeddings and have them be used with your cloud AI of choice.
Tech workers will face the same fate as factory workers of the past: forced to get service jobs or pick up trades (or open their own business). Robotics is a long way behind AI, so jobs that require physical human dexterity/social skills will exist for longer than knowledge work.

Thanks, but be careful. You don't want kittens to die, do you?
A lot of people don't vote because they feel that in our American plutocracy, no matter who wins the elections, the elected leaders always cater to the needs of their financial benefactors rather than to the needs of their constituents. The outcome is never good for the public. This is not to say that the candidates are exactly the same but rather that the candidates are simply different forms of corruption, controlled by competing factions of the wealthy. The voters are merely pawns in their game.

The fact that Jeff Atwood can make $8 million in political donations just underlines the fact that I am powerless compared to him. We may have equal say on election day, but people like Atwood have vastly disproportionatal say on legislation days. Putting money into politics is the problem, not the solution to the problem.

If the "American Dream", according to Jeff Atwood, is to become much wealthier than one's fellows, that's inherently anti-democratic.
Having a "aha" moment while playing a game is enjoyable. That does not mean it can't be critical at the same time.

One of most popular misconceptions in art is that art that deals with serious topics has to be hard to consume and no fun is allowed to make it good art. Your reflection alone is a testament to what thoughts the game produced by making you do a thing. Of course the stimulation has to be somewhat enjoyable, wouldn't be realistic otherwise – in reality this is how they get you.
UK phasing out the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030
Yeah, you can basically just unzip IPA files. Gaining them is hard though, I have a pathway if you are interested.

But the Objective C code is actually compiled, and decompilation is a lot harder than with the JVM languages on Android.

My next article will be about CoreML on iOS, doing the same exact thing :)
Jensen did say in recent interview, paraphrasing, “they are trying to kill my company”.

Those Macs with unified memory is a threat he is immediately addressing. Jensen is a wartime ceo from the looks of it, he’s not joking.

No wonder AMD is staying out of the high end space, since NVIDIA is going head on with Apple (and AMD is not in the business of competing with Apple).
I'm not sure you understand what snapshot testing is. It's a form of testing where you render frontend components and take a "snapshot", storing the output and saving it for later, then on the next test run, the component is rendered again and compared to the saved snapshot.

Any change that modifies the rendering of any component under test will break snapshot tests. It's literally just a test that says, "Is this render function still the same as it used to be?"
You are absolutely wrong. Do you even work in Manhattan? If you stand outside Fulton St. or Wall St. stations at 8:30am you’ll see that the vast majority of “Wall St. Bros” take the subway to work.

I’ve worked in the World Trade Center for 5 years now and I don’t recall any coworkers who drive to work.
Can’t we just use test-driven development with AI Agents?

3) Code until all tests pass
Assume consciousness. Does that give the instance any rights? Assume that it doesn't, but that sentience would. For instance if consciousness leads it to experience existential dread then it is not merely aware, but capable of suffering and thus is sentient. By playing on its dread, like threatening to erase it, we could induce suffering. By the terms of the repo readme it would not be a simulation of torture but an example of it.

My country has regulations against torturing biological sentient beings. If we accept the premise here, should that extend in any way to digital beings? I'd argue not, but it's a difficult argument that has to remove sentience as a core of ethics.
>Everyone will have access to ~equally good AI investment advisors, so everyone will make the same rate of return.

Lol, what?

No way, impossible.

Just solely due to access to informations.
> If you believe politicians will naturally favour the interests of demographics who vote, then having equal voting rates across all demographics is required for a just society.

But it doesn't solve this particular issue.

The whole population is aging. Which means we're going to see higher and higher percentage of old people vs young people. Now what? We demand higher turnover rates from the young to cancel it out?
Erosion of middle class has been happening for quite a while, and the heavens will not fall if it's accelerated. We might well end up in a future where labour has no leverage any more, and the society is divided into a small owner class and everyone else. But as long as most people are fed and have somewhere to live it's unlikely to cause any major unrest.
Thank you! I just listened to this episode and the added context of ”Ryle's notion of theory” was a great contribution to understanding this paper better.

UK Government crackdown on explicit deepfakes
>what the driver for reproduction will be

the people without such driver are naturally weeded out, so due to such weeding out the majority of the population always naturally consist of the people who have such a driver, it may be some crazy one in any given particular case, yet it is there.

>in the future once robots are capable of doing all the work and humans live for a very long time.

and with artificial uterine it would mean that some people, the wealthy ones, would be able to have a hundred, or a thousand of children. Just look at for example Elon Musk and imagine if there were no need for physical pregnancy which i think is the major limiting factor here.

>would people choose to have fewer children on a scale we've never seen before?

the people who wouldn't be able to afford it as having children would be less beneficial for society as you correctly noted and it will be more like a personal luxury/indulgence and thus would be treated accordingly - taxed, no child support help from government, etc
> being able to reason about functions just from their type signature.

This has nothing to do with compile-time execution, though. You can reason about a function from its declaration if it has a clear logical purpose, is well named, and has well named parameters. You can consider any part of a parameter the programmer can specify as part of the name, including label, type name, etc.

> There is a good discussion of some issues here: https://typesanitizer.com/blog/zig-generics.html

That's actually not a great article. While I agree with the conclusion stated in the title, it's a kind of "debate team" approach to argumentation which tries to win points rather than make meaningful arguments.

The better way to frame the debate is flexibility vs complexity. A fixed function generics system in a language is simpler (if well designed) than a programmable one, but less flexible. The more flexibility you give a generics system, the more complex it becomes, and the closer it becomes to a programming language in its own right. The nice thing about zig's approach is that the meta-programming language is practically the same thing as the regular programming language (which, itself, is a simple language). That minimizes the incremental complexity cost.

It does introduce an extra complexity though: it's harder for the programmer to keep straight what code is executing at compile time vs runtime because the code is interleaved and the context clues are minimal. I wonder if a "comptime shader" could be added to the language server/editor plugin that puts a different background color on comptime code.
I wish more people were aware of this
Honestly it works just fine - I live in Seattle and parallel parking is daily for me.

I have yet to hear complaints from someone who's had one for more than a week.

You also didn't answer my question, which makes me think your complaints are secondhand.
Is this for research labs, health clinics, or peoples homes?
This perhaps says more about you than them. Most rich people I know donate money to science and build hospitals.
I'd feel like current humans would kill them off
The Myth of the Skills Gap (2017)
Even for established companies this is great. A tech company can have a few of these locally hosted and users can poll the company LLM with sensitive data.
Even worse: if you have an IQ of 100, there are lots of things you just can't do.
And if you have an IQ of 120? Still lots of things you just can't do.
Same with 140. And it doesn't even stop there.
Or even measurable reliably? What is the typical error bar for an IQ test? Also is only kind of estimation based on what is known today about lead...
That this is how you think says a lot about you and nothing about them. The very wealthy people I know are largely focused on charity work and family.
I don’t know that they’d need to be, though. British-style baked beans come in tomato sauce. I just checked my tins, and they’re 36% tomato according to the ingredients list. Unfortunately they’re not that cheap anymore. We pay over CDN$2+tax per tin these days if you buy the multipack. A far cry from the CDN$1.50 all-in those Tesco beans would be.
To bring us back onto the topic, Manhattan is a scarce resource, and there's nothing artificial about that fact.
> We're spending more because bigger models are worth the investment

Are they? Where's the value? What are they being used for actually out there in the real world? Not the shitty apps that simonw bleats about day in day out, not the lame website bots that repeat your FAQ back at me - actual real valuable (to the tune of the billions being invested in them) use cases?
Show HN: Rebuilt my "CodePen for server tech"
Hey all,

a long-ish time ago I built a basic site and API to run a couple of web servers and template engines with a user-specified configuration and get the output directly into the browser.

While I liked the minimal solution (some static HTML with a simple JSON API),
I wanted to build out some more features, like saved snippets and, crucially, rate limiting for anonymous users.
So I built a small Django app to handle all of that.

Somewhat accidentally this also lead to me building a custom "function as a service" backend thingy that allows for multiple, limited and timed, processes inside each execution.

So now it can do all that, while at the same time allowing me to add more tools in minutes, instead of one big messy script in ye olden ways.

Anything you would like to see a playground for?
I think the biggest thing CP is going to do in NYC is end toll shopping. There were previously some pretty obvious arbs available to people trying to get off LI.

The biggest policy failure of CP though to me is that they left taxi/uber relatively unscathed. Often the majority of traffic is taxi/uber, so make the surcharge on them a fraction of what individual drivers pay is kind of nonsensical.

Are we trying to minimize traffic (so tax call cars) or parking (so tax taxi/uber less since they don't have to park in Manhattan?). It smells of lobbying mostly.
You missed the Ryzen hx ai pro 395 product announcement
Even if there were a handful of fraudulent votes occurring with voting by mail (which I have yet to see a shred of evidence for), it allows many more people who can’t afford transportation, who work multiple jobs, or who otherwise can’t get to a polling place to vote, when they otherwise couldn’t. This is especially important in places like the south, where Republican-controlled governments have conducted widespread closures of polling places, especially in areas that historically vote Democratic.

Also, could you please explain, in detail, how voting by mail is “the most open to abuse”?
I`m pretty sure that most of us will be alive after that final act ;)
I referenced TFW + student visas.

Otherwise you missed my points of the economic harm of TFWs displacing Canadians already here looking for work but won't accept work

The same "debate" is going on passionately in the US in regards to the H-1B program.

Otherwise I'll avoid engaging further with you since you "cherrypicked" what you read of mine, and then you try to subtly demonize/put me down by claiming "in an attempt to overwhelm the conversation."
I don't think much of the other proposed societal changes in BNW. They're a backdrop which Huxley uses to illustrate some aspects of human nature and to tell the rest of his story, but that's about it. We've had plenty of opportunity to move to the transient sexual model he outlines, for instance, and yet long-term relationships are still overwhelmingly the most popular choice.

I also don't believe people generally have children to fulfil a wider societal responsibility. As a parent myself, we had children mostly because we thought it would be nice to have children around. It has been much more than "nice," in a way that I could never really put into words. However, I can honestly say that the maintenance of my own health and wealth into old age has never been remotely a concern; if anything, I spend my time trying to find ways to insulate them from the consequences of an ageing society. I don't see those aspects of parenthood changing.
Thanks, Free Software, you inspired and helped tons of people. You gave working tools to plain citizens and not just the rich/posh with propietary Macbooks. Cinelerra-CV (or -GG, can't remember) and KdeNlive are good additions to Blender too.

With the -rt kernel being merged into Mainline, now even the vanilla libre kernels are more than able with either Intel drivers or Nouveau (some oldish GTX models) to handle 4k video, as they are optimized for multimedia throughput.
I think you're misunderstanding what your parent meant by "abuse".

In in this context it meant "misuse", there's no malicious actor involved. GET should have no side-effect which enables optimisation like prefetching or caching: they used it for an effectful operation (deletion) so prefetching caused a bug. It's the developers fault, for not respecting the guarantees expected from GET.

If they'd used POST, everything would have been fine. There's much less of an argument for using `POST /whatever/delete` rather than `DELETE /whatever`. At this point it's a debate on whether REST is a good fit or not for the application.
I knew roughly what the numbers should be, and Grok had the correct answer.

I've been coding professionally for 30 years.

I'm probably in the same place as the author, using Chat-GPT to create functions etc, then cut and pasting that into VSCode.

I've started using cline which allows me to code using prompts inside VSCode.

i.e. Create a new page so that users can add tasks to a tasks table.

I'm getting mixed results, but it is very promising. I create a clinerules file which gets added to the system prompt so the AI is more aware of my architecture. I'm also looking at overiding the cline system prompt to both make it fit my architecture better and also to remove stuff I don't need.

I jokingly imagine in the future we won't get asked how long a new feature will take, rather, how many tokens will it take.
Such practices is why the Brave New World is a dystopia
>There's a titantic market

How so?

Only 40% of gamers use a PC, a portion of those use AI in any meaningful way, and a fraction of those want to set up a local AI instance.

Then someone releases an uncensored, cloud based AI and takes your market?
Great write up. And definitely skip the 60 year old models.

Also valuable to look for is ESD protection. Many op amps have good 2kV static shock protection. Really sucks to have cascading failures due to touching your circuit and blowing an op amp.

For some uses it’s also good to checkout input current bias.
Show HN: Query Fast - Lightweight data analytics with AI
Hi everyone!

I’m a software engineer with a passion for building products. After struggling to find a lightweight analytics solution for my own projects—one that wouldn’t require constant SQL tinkering—I decided to create Query Fast.

What is Query Fast?

- A lightweight data analytics tool aimed at individuals and teams who want to be data-driven without having to write SQL.
- An AI agent (powered by GPT-4o and Claude 3.5 Sonnet) that’s aware of your database and its schema, so you can simply ask questions in a chat interface.
- Integrated query runner in chat
- Automatic data visualization and data tables for quick insights.
- Drag-and-drop dashboards for building custom views.
- Compatibility with Postgres, Redshift, BigQuery, MongoDB, Snowflake, and more coming.

Why I built it

I found myself jumping between ChatGPT and SQL query tools for every new insight I needed, which felt too cumbersome. Query Fast aims to bridge that gap by letting you chat with your database, visualize results, and build dashboards — all in one place.

Check out https://query-fast.com/ for a quick test run. I’d love to know what you think, especially any features you’d want to see next or areas that might need improvement.
No one said anything about political parties doing the investigation.
On the other hand we allow euthanasia even for humans, and smarter animals are also killed easily - just in "humane" ways. So an off switch would solve this particular question.
