For four months, I was stuck in a nightmare with traderup.com, unable to access my funds due to a PIN issue. Despite numerous attempts to resolve the problem by contacting their customer support, I was repeatedly promised a solution within 24 hours, but nothing came through. I checked my inbox and spam folders, but I never received any follow-up emails. I even tried reaching out through their Telegram channel, but that led to no progress either. It became clear that traderup.com was doing everything it could to prevent me from accessing my money, Feeling completely helpless and desperate, I searched online for a solution and found Blockchain Cyber Retrieve. Although I was initially skeptical, their professional and attentive team quickly put my mind at ease. They acted swiftly and, within a week, I had my funds back. Blockchain Cyber Retrieve truly saved me when no one else could. I highly recommend their services to anyone facing similar issues.

I could look at a SCSI device or a SCSI cable with my eyes and see what I was getting into with good-enough detail to understand the playing field I was dealing with today.

With USB C, my eyes don't help at all with devices nor with cables. Is it a power input? A power output? Both? Does it support a display? Is it USB 2, 3, or none? I have no direct way of telling -- my eyes don't help, and nor do my other senses.
> FTA: 11us is _unbelievably good_ digital latency, but with near unlimited length is actually a pretty good value proposition for Live Audio. There may be a niche demand for a product like this: slap in some SFP adapters, transmit a channel of digital audio over whatever medium you like.

Used to be you could get an PRI (ISDN/T1) phone line for this kind of work, but I think it's pretty doubtful that you can keep it end-to-end low latency PRI with modern telephony. You'd have to be ok with single channel 8-bit, 8k uLaw, but that's not that bad; you could probably orchestrate multiple calls for multiple channels. Someone is going to convert it to SIP with 20ms packets and there goes your latency.
In response to their request, I said nothing and brought them a red and white paper cup with "Cola" written on it in the Coca-Cola font.
So I misclick a link in my email client and the evil guy who requested in is now logged in on his browser god knows where? Surely that can’t be real. It sounds awful. TVs involve copying a code to make sure the right device is being authenticated, or the ones I’ve used have at least.

Baba is You and Stardew would require scaling because their pixel art expects a certain gridsize to encompass the screen. Factorio might as well, I'm not sure. Dwarf Fortress is played in a terminal so whether it can be stated to even have graphics is debatable.

See how that works?

The specific places in California where Facebook had "trust and safety and content moderation teams" were places that very much don't reflect the average politics of the US. That is naturally going to reflect itself in the ideological composition of employees, and therefore in political bias in the fact-checking process.

We've already seen harm from this. For example, Facebook suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop story (https://www.yahoo.com/news/zuckerberg-admits-facebook-suppre...), even though:

* there has never been any evidence provided to link the story to supposed Russian disinformation;

* The FBI (i.e., the agency supposedly telling Facebook and other social media companies to be on the lookout for such disinformation) acknowledged that they did in fact seize the laptop from the computer shop owner in 2019 (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/22/us/politics/hunter-biden-...) and verified that it was Hunter Biden's - which later came up in a criminal case against him in mid 2024 (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/live-blog/hun...

* there is no good reason a priori, outside of political bias, to suspect the New York Post (founded 1801 by Alexander Hamilton) of spreading such disinformation.
And please do not pay anyone for "ATS compatible resume templates" or other ATS related services.

I don't think people realize how many of the ATS myths have been promulgated by people trying to sell services to job seekers. The ATS myth resonates with people for some reason, so desperate job seekers will often pay (unnecessarily) for various "ATS friendly" templates or ATS reviews.
What an oddly super specific thing to ban.
I think the author is really on the right path with his vision for LLMs as tool for software development. Last week I tried probably all of them with something like a code challenge.

I have to say that I am impressed with sketch.dev, it got me a working example from the first try and it looked cleaner form all the others, similar but cleaner somehow in terms of styling.

The whole time I was using those tools I was thinking that I want exactly this a LLM trained specifically on the Go official documentation, or whatever your favourite language is, ideally fined tuned by the maintainers of the language.

I want the LLM to show me an idiomatic way to write an API using the standard library I don't necessarily want it to do it instead of me, or to be trained on all of the scrapped data they could scrape. Show me a couple of examples maybe explain a concept, give me steps by step guidance.

I also share his frustrations with the chat based approach what annoys me personally the most is the anthropomorphization of the LLMs, yesterday Gemini was even patronizing me...
Gulf of Trump have better change than Texas or Ohio.
Oh wow, this puts words to an insight I've had and lived by for a long time.

I think I'm not just a moral incompletist but also a moral inconsistentist.

My take on the trolley problem is that while it's "best" in some sense to throw the lever, it's not wrong not to. And generally the goal should be "tend towards greater than zero" instead of "maximize morality points". Missed opportunities for moral behavior count as 0 and carry that neutral emotional valence instead of being a negative thing to agonize over.
>There are not really ceilings, barrier to entry, or way around the system, so it's resistant to spams and manipulations.

I feel like we must be using different internets. Spam and manipulation are rampant on social networks lately, far beyond what they used to be, and while there aren't really barriers to entry there absolutely are barriers to reach: you're not as widely followed as the spammers, your stuff will be drowned out.

As evidence I offer: any cursory glance at Facebook or Twitter, both of which have likes and retweets.
You’re not wrong but let’s not give anyone any awful ideas…
Those are the most obvious and easy to spot signs. Metabolic syndrome is dysfunction at the mitochondrial level.

Fairly often, I find myself writing in C when I would rather be writing Julia, because Julia just isn’t quite there yet. I figured that the author was probably in a similar conundrum, judging by the mix of languages in the repository. I suspect I did not communicate this sentiment clearly haha
The disconnect is that the news is completely wrong. I can confirm that it’s an employer’s market from personal experience as well.
Asterisk just published an interview with the folks behind Community Notes at X (Twitter) - https://asteriskmag.com/issues/08/the-making-of-community-no...

I don't use Twitter so I hadn't seen it in action, but the interview convinced me that this is a good approach. I think this approach makes sense for Facebook as well.
It would be useless to test against a system that companies weren't using. I wouldn't count on anything open source in the HR space, to be honest.

I remember seeing a list of companies you could "apply" to with your resume that would then show the ATS-parsed version back to you. Every single person who used it got a reasonable result back, which is usually enough to put an end to all of the ATS myths out there.
tell us how to do it right.
The EA people started with similar ideas but eventually determined that minimizing current human suffering was not nearly optimal for minimizing total human suffering. Once they turned their focus to future human suffering, everything quickly coalesced around climate change as the biggest threat, and there was no need for a fancy dynamic model.

The broader policy shift this announcement is part of reads as trying to curry favor with the incoming administration, and it’s really kinda disgusting to watch unfold.
Can we please get some clarification on "trapped" from someone who's used a Wayno? Surely the driverless car hasn't locked him inside. Right?

Surely every driverless vehicle ought to have a button that when pressed gracefully stops the car so the passengers can safely exit.
Thank God Congress finally passed a law that made it illegal to get brain cancer from cell phones.

The study quantifies the effect. The paper doesn't just say "Drinking too much sugar is bad for you."

Say one group drinks six cans of coke a day per person vs another group drink only water. Overall they have similar caloric intake and expenditures. What is the increase in type 2 diabetes for the first group vs the second? Yes, it is not surprising it would be higher, but is it 5%? 10%? 50%? 100%? more?
Please acknowledge that your situation is pretty unique. Just take a look at the comments: how many people say, or outright presume, that their company's code is already on GitHub? I'd wager that your org doesn't keep code at a 3rd party provider, right? Then, you're in a minority.

I don't mean to dismiss your concerns - in your situation, they are probably warranted - I just wanted to say that they are unique and not necessarily shared by people who don't share your circumstances.
>Free from heat emissions

So, there's no electronics in it whatsoever?
I asked it for "one hand stabbing another with an ornate dagger, traditional style." It got the style right-ish but everything else was terribly wrong. Daggers with multiple blades, hands with hands on them, fingers with multiple fingernails, etc.

This could be useful if it can reliably get the core requirements correct though. I can see myself generating some ideas with this and taking them to an artist as a basis for them to start with.

OP: It would probably be good to have a "these aren't even close, please try again" button which allows for a couple free retries.
Yeah, you wanna use Claude for code. That's the problem. Try Cursor or Bolt.
I think most of the data they collect is pretty bad so it’s more like pissing in an ocean of piss.
I read 5 vaguely written paragraphs of generalities and then am being told about the sham "effective altruists" who gave us Scam Bankman Fraud as their best known adherent.

This article doesn't say anything afaict.

Maybe it should start with "don't be a fake altruist"?
I think this reinforces my argument that liberals view it as indisputable that there is no bias in their favor in media and all their opinions are "merely reality."
Duo 2FA works the same way. In principle yes. And it's basically always accompanied by a "click this link" -> "are you trying to log in, and is this you? yes/no" page to resist that.

Small code copying is also a very good answer though, yes. Roughly as easily manipulated, but nothing's perfect, and it's less "I didn't mean to click that button"-prone.

Interesting. I wonder if their interview standard fell during that period (because many engineers may leave or refuse to join a dying company). Same for Google in the near future.
You really want low latency in competitive shooters. From mouse, to game engine, to drivers, to display. There's a lot of nuance to this area, which hardware vendors happily suggest to just throw money at.

Btw, if you're using gsync or freesync, don't allow your display to cap it, keep it 2-3 frames under max refresh rate. Reddit to the rescue.
Noah Smith’s entire twitter feed is dedicated to pointing out progressive lies.
Yeah -- the best recruiters have been "let's meet in person and chat about what you're looking for" people who would send me jobs when I was looking. The worst ones open the conversation by asking for my social over the phone.
"Do no harm" is a far better precept than "be courteous". Lots of harm has been done by courteous people that I'm sure were perfectly lovely to their inner circle and local neighborhood.
Yeah, this happened to me at home. I have this lock on the door and I couldn’t get in because it was locked. I called support and they said I needed to use the key on the lock but that SHOULDN’T BE NECESSARY. Completely unsafe that the door wouldn’t unlock. Shelter is a human right and I was trapped outside of my house just because I wouldn’t use some “device” that so-called “support” was trying to get me to use.

Same situation as this guy and the “End Ride” button. It’s actually horrifying.

The typical soda in the US is either 12oz (can) or 20oz (bottle).

A 12oz coke has 39g of sugar. A 20oz bottle of coke is 65g.

Coke isn't close to the worst offender and this ignores soda at restaurants when 28oz is often the smallest you can buy

Such a great video. There is a really good chance I use that technique for a remote subwoofer at some point. Really elegant solution.
I doubt their preferences are >1x since they've always had high demand. In that case, the preference stack would just be the total raised over time (~$10B).
Thank you for such a comprehensive response, Kragen! I appreciate it!
When I first become a hiring manager I thought I'd be the exception and provide everyone with detailed and honest feedback.

I didn't last very long. Candidates would see the feedback as an invitation to prove me wrong or argue with my assessment. I got a few very angry e-mails from people who took their rejection very personally and made it clear that I was their enemy. One person (who was actually very unqualified) even went on a mini rampage across the internet, trying to "name and shame" my company and even my personally for the rejection. There were even threats of a discrimination lawsuit.

So I stopped. It's back to something like "We've decided to proceed with other candidates"
I have 3 rock-bottom criteria for responding to a recruiter:

1) They use the correct email address, the one I used on my resume and to apply for jobs, and didn't dig out my personal one somewhere.

2) They don't say something stupid that reveals they didn't even look at my resume. ("I see you have C# experience", uh no I don't)

3) They include anything at all that's supposed to interest me, even if it actually doesn't.

The vast majority fail at step 1. I've only ever had one email from a recruiter that passed all these criteria.
The root of why that doesn't work is because you're mostly thinking about yourself still. "am >>I<< a good person?". Good people spend more time thinking about others, how to make them feel better, how to help. Obviously there's a balance to be had, as you can end up burning out from never taking your own needs into consideration.
Possibly, though you'd hope that they'd include that information.

That they didn't makes you think that there's a reason they didn't.
Could it be that Waymo should just be able to stop the car? It doesn't seem at all ridiculous to you that he is already on the phone with them, and then they just read the script to tell him to pull out his phone and fire up the app? Just what I want is to ride in a car with Comcast level of customer service.
Not at all! It’s been talked about before.

The problem becomes, do you trust the company implementing it?

As someone currently working with a little team trying to make low-poly games using Godot - this is awesome!

> Also when creating things with nodes, you have to go back and forth between node GUI and code.

> All of the mainstream engines have a monolithic game editor. It doesn't matter how many features you use from it, you still have to wait 10 minutes for all of them to load in.

These notes really resonated; the debug loop even with Godot, using minimal fancy features, felt a lot slower than other contexts I've programmed in. Multiple editors working around a single data file spec is also a cool idea! In finding that a unified IDE makes it easier for different developers to create merge conflicts, I could see having editors of a more specific purpose may also help developers of different roles limit the scope and nature of their changes. Keen to see how the engine progresses!
It's autos, so wouldn't the phrase be "Tesla is laps down from Waymo"?
I guess the only option they have is "pull over" which in this case just caused the car to continue circling looking for a safe place to pull over. If they had an actual kill switch, we'd probably be watching another video of some guy on a call to waymo support while stuck in the middle of a highway.
Seems like legal vs. illegal immigration is low-hanging fruit.
Bro, effective altruism is a simple thing: if you have some altruistic goal, you’ll get better results if you choose things that are good at getting the goal. It doesn’t require that your utility function matches anyone else’s.

For instance, I don’t think life (including human) is inherently worth anything so it’s not a big deal if a bunch of kids somewhere die of guinea worm. But for my objectives my charitable giving yields better outcomes. I’m happy with that.
This is a cheap political gotcha accompanied by a litany of unevidenced and vague allegations against a political out-group (which "particular group"? On what basis do you assert that "some AI somewhere" is involved, and why would that matter? Not to mention the tired "dog whistle" cliche) and a demand for self-censorship.

You've also made a bold claim about the relevant statistics without any kind of citation.

My understanding is that a higher standard of discourse is expected on HN.

But aside from that meta point: your argument seems to rest on the idea that your ideological opponents would prefer for cisgender teenage boys to be able to get mastectomies when they exhibit unwanted breast growth. But the source your interlocutor found suggests that the "breast reductions in teenage boys" you're talking about are in fact dominantly performed on transgender teenage boys (i.e., people your ideological opponents would consider "teenage girls"). So the intended gotcha doesn't even work; you haven't identified any kind of inconsistency in the position or potential for a "self-own".
Seems like a bit of a disingenuous take. There are electronics (wifi and bluetooth connectivity, battery that lasts up to a year), but eInk has no backlight and only uses power to change the pixels (even without power the image will stay.. as anyone who has a first gen eReader with bulging battery is probably all too aware)
> Unfortunately, because the legislation didn't target all nicotine products that left the door open for vape companies to come in and get Gen Z and Alpha addicted to nicotine all over again.

Gen Z and Alpha nicotine use rates are still lower than Millennials in absolute terms; it's happily not a huge problem (nevermind that stuff like Zyn is unambiguously much healthier than smoking cigs).
I've appreciated four years of a government that at least tried to do good things. Not looking forward to the impending shitstormfront.
I used to drink a lot of soda but stopped 15 years ago and have had a total of three or four cans since. I switched to unsweetened green tea instead of a zero-calorie soda because I don't like the taste of artificial sweeteners, and I am somewhat suspicious of the unknown long-term consequences of their use.
I have trained transformers on a 4090 (not language models). Here’s a few notes.

You can try out pretty much all GPUs on a cloud provider these days. Do it.

VRAM is important for maxing out your batch size. It might make your training go faster, but other hardware matters too.

How much having more VRAM speeds things up also depends on your training code. If your next batch isn’t ready by the time one is finished training, fix that first.

Coil whine is noticeable on my machine. I can hear when the model is training/next batch is loading.

Don’t bother with the founder’s edition.
I once tried calling my relatives in Russia and was instead connected with exactly this kind of bot.

> I think it's amusing that optic fiber connectors have had so little success in the market though I have a few TOSLINK and the coaxial equivalent in my upstairs home theater ...

Is TOSLINK that unsuccessful? I was already using TOSLINK a very long time ago (in the nineties) and I'm still using TOSLINK today. Enter any audio store and they have TOSLINK cables.

It's very old by now though and I take it there's better stuff but TOSLINK still does the job.

My "music" path doesn't use TOSLINK:

source, eg QOBUZ for (lossless) streaming -> ethernet -> integrated amp (which has a DAC) -> speakers

But my "movie" (no home theater anymore atm) path uses TOSLINK:

TV -> TOSLINK -> same integrated amp -> speakers

For whatever reason that amp is quite new and has all the bells and whistles (ARC and network streaming, for example) yet that amp still comes with not one but two (!) TOSLINK inputs.

I'd say that's quite a successful life for a standard that came out in the mid eighties.
