> People did not like it at all that it was not about quantum physics.

As a physicist: You would not believe how annoying it can be to find good information about actual quantum physics. It's not just WFC, people love to name stuff after physics stuff. When the electron framework came out I braced myself, knowing that lots of regular internet searches were about to become more inconvenient.
It's forward confirming reverse DNS. I assumed that everyone does that by default.
The drones are also clones (?) of the prior queen. They are unfertilized eggs, so they contain a genetic copy of half the queen's DNA. Mating with a drone from you hive would be like mating directly with your genetic mother. It's going to result in real bad inbreeding real quickly. Especially since queens mate a single time, and live for only a few years.
I feel that Europe has exactly that very right, as I support our right to exorcise control of the CCP from TikTok and/or shut it down. I completely understand why they would.

It's not that you don't get bug reports from data center customers, it's that data center customers have scale in a bad way. They buy thousands of GPUs, they do whatever they're going to do with them, they have a problem, they report the bug. One bug report across thousands of GPUs, because they're all being used for the same thing by that customer so they only have the problems you have when you try to do that. Another data center buys thousands of GPUs and they're doing something else which is extremely common and well supported, so they don't have any issues and you get zero bug reports from them.

Compare this to, you sell a thousand GPUs to a thousand professionals and 10% of them have some problem, but each a different one. You get 100 bug reports, you fix 100 bugs instead of just one, things improve much faster.
I feel it is a very strange hill to die on for them, given all the good they can do in other places.

> Parallels notes that these operating systems currently run "really slow" due to the overhead required for translation. Windows takes between two and seven minutes to boot, depending on the speed of your Mac, and "the responsiveness of the operating system is low." Rather than attempting to multi-task, Parallels says you should close the app you're using before trying to open another one.

I tried to run x86 Windows using UTM a while back (I was trying to test something that was x86-only and used a kernel driver, so couldn't run under ARM Windows). I had to give up on it because it was taking too long to boot (i.e. way longer than 7 minutes). So this sounds like an improvement.

On the other hand, we've had success using UTM for students with Apple Silicon Macs to run our x86 Linux VM that we use in our 2nd year University operating systems course. It's terminal-only (no desktop environment), but we do use VS Code's Remote SSH with it (which runs the VS Code backend in it).
CVE-2024-12084
I don’t think long-term value is their guiding star, if their previous NFT forays are anything to go by
What people are discovering with the latest models is that often their errors are due to entirely reasonable choices and assumptions... which happen to be wrong in your specific case. They call a library you don't have installed, or something like that. Short of inventing either telepathy or spice which can allow LLMs to see the future, it will increasingly be the case that you cannot use the best models efficiently without giving them extensive context. Writing 'reports' where you dump in everything even tangentially relevant is the obvious way to do so, and so I would expect future LLMs to be even more so than o1-preview/pro.
Yeah it very much feels like a case of biting the hand that feeds. What’s the long term goal of AO by doing this?
I believe this approach is destined for a lot of disappointment. LLMs enable a LOT of entry- and mid-level performance, quickly. Rightfully, you and I worry about the edge cases and bugs. But people will trend towards things that enable them to do things faster.
> ...cron just does what it says on the tin with no problems.

Yeah, tell me about it.

We had a production-down support ticket filed for one of the things that I work on at $DAYJOB. The customer's VM's disk was full. Why? Because the 'timer unit' that was supposed to run logrotate every day had never been run and was never scheduled to run. (The VM had been up for a month at this point.) No other customers had ever reported this issue, and we'd not changed anything about that timer unit or what it is supposed to run in ages.

No amount of gyration or agitation with 'systemctl' and friends OR rebooting of the VM kicked the cron replacement into proper functioning. 'logrotate' was simply never being scheduled to run. This fucker was WEDGED, and the tools weren't helping us understand why.

We read through all the docs on all the various kinds of units and don't see what we're doing wrong. We do a BUNCH of digging, and find an -IIRC- open Github issue from years back where someone was running into this problem. More or less the last word on the issue was Poettering saying something like "Well... actually, now that we've said that that particular cascade of options isn't actually supposed to work, now I'm not so sure that they're NOT supposed to work.". And that was -apparently- that.

IMO, when your cron replacement can be easily configured in such a way as to never even try to run the thing that you scheduled it to run, you really need to go back and rethink how you've built your cron replacement.
I love that this is a bash script.

> Most handwriting is legible to its owner.

Not necessarily, I'd be surprised if I could fully understand my old handwritten notes from when I was in school (years ago), since I've always had messy handwriting and no longer have the context in each subject matter to guess.

LLMs could help in some of those cases, since it would have knowledge of history/chemistry/etc. and could fill in the blanks better than I could at this point. Though the hallucinations would no doubt outweigh it.
Agree with this feeling. “Exciting to hear conceptually, curious if it’ll actually work though.”
They're like half-clones, yeah. Queens can mate more than once though, but usually just once, and if more than once just twice. A well-mated queen will have sperm from a dozen different drones.

Yes, by using Youtube's special playlist id prefixes and the "playlist_id" query parameter instead "channel_id".

Example: For channel id "UCXuqSBlHAE6Xw-yeJA0Tunw" replace the first two letters "UC" (channel ids always start with "UC") with "UULF". The feed url then looks like this: https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?playlist_id=UULFXuq...

It will only contain Videos, no Shorts, but also no Live Streams (in case you want (only) Live Streams use "UULV").

Ask HN: Apply to YC While Pregnant?
I'm one of three co-founders and I am currently pregnant. Should we apply to YC for the Spring 2025 batch?

My co-founders are very supportive of me and my situation. My partner is also staying at home and will be the primary day-to-day caretaker; I'm fully committed to this company.

My due date is during the latter part of the Spring 2025 batch (June). I don't want to wait for a later batch because we have great momentum and the bones of a very solid business; we know it may take several attempts to get in; we could really use YC help and guidance during this critical time.

Obviously I will disclose my pregnancy to YC - I just don't want to diminish our chances by applying for a batch with these timing considerations.

Has anyone gone through something similar before? Thank you!
My 'company' is actually a governmental agency, and they even had one or a few fake job postings. So, I completely understand companies using fake postings to artificially inflate themselves, but that would have not be relevant for us.

So, why did it happen then? Well, we have a handful of people on H1-B visas. Apparently, there is some requirement that employers are required to demonstrate that there are not any other capable applicants than the one they are sponsoring or something like that. So, my employer made the posts, collected all the resumes, and just stored them in one of my coworker's desk drawers.

I wonder how often other employers are doing this very same thing as well?

The non-hybrid version of the CX-50 is rated for quite good fuel economy. I encourage you to do the math on your own and check my results: it is unlikely that a buyer would ever save money by getting the hybrid option considering that they will likely keep it for no more than 7 years and that the non-hybrid will have larger discounts than the hybrid.
That’s not true. There was not endless hype about flying to the moon when the first plane flew.

I didn't say there was endless hype, I gave an example of how one technology would never result in another... even if to a layperson it seems connected.

(The sky, and the moon, are "up")

People are well aware of the limits of LLMs.

Surely you mean "Some people". Because the point in this thread is that there is a lot of hype, and FOMO, and "OMG AGI!" chatter running around LLMs. Which will never ever make AGI.

I don't like this. I only have a handful of family users but I could still benefit from the additional vulnerability proofing of Rust. It's not just about the scaling. My data security matters too. I have not exposed it to the internet for a while now because I already had my doubts. Also, as 0xC0ncord mentioned large federated rooms caused too much load so I wanted to move to standalone anyway. For that too I could have benefited from this.

This really sounds like "haha you community members are stuck with a sucky version of our software and you're never getting the good one!". It's not exactly making me feel valued as a community member. And we shouldn't forget this is what put matrix on the map. This feels very bait-and-switch'ey.

Also pointing out the flaws in one's own software doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. I think it would have been a sounder approach to paywall real enterprise features rather than the core product. Such as SSO, auditing, legal holds, that stuff. Basically all the stuff that Microsoft Teams has in Purview. The community won't miss any of that stuff.

Ps I thought dendrite was supposed to be the next big thing? It feels like element is often jumping on new things like big rewrites such as element X instead of improving the existing products.

Came here to say this.

Nostr is so far ahead it's not funny, in part because of this, in part because it's actually decentralised, in part because of already existing features built in to almost every client, like zaps.

I don't understand why anyone would invest their time in ATProto over Nostr, and don't know anyone who has studied both and has.
CommonCrawl’s data is up to a month old. Here you can write a custom crawler, and have a REST/RAG API that you can use with your apps and agents for the data that your crawler finds. All the while, it builds up a platform-wide cache, so duplicate/redundant requests don’t reach their origin servers.
Lol this isn’t Amazon. This is an impersonator. They’re crawling your git repo because people accidentally push secrets to git repos.

This assumes that Fitness is a meaningless aphorism. I would posit that Fitness is a meaningful concept that can be learned. It is defined by what happens to be reproductively helpful to a species, which is tautological, but to understand the definition, it just means you need to understand that particular species ecosystem and lifecycle.

If you really analyze any word, it loses all meaning except what we've assigned it.
What do you consider broken about Lunar Lake? It looks good to me. The E-cores are on a separate island to allow the ring to power off and that does lead to lower performance but it's still good enough IMO.

This is incredibly disappointing to me.

Performance has always been one of the most glaring issues with using Matrix. The article seems to be intentionally obfuscating the fact that performance and scalability issues stem from the activity a server participates in rather than just the number of users it has. If you're in a rather large room with hundreds of members and it's constantly active, you'll quickly notice your server struggling to keep up.

As a Matrix user, I feel like I'm being rug-pulled because Element HQ decided to gatekeep their solution to this problem that has plagued the community for more than half a decade.

Ironic, given that a ton of the security dogma these days is "don't trust anyone" --- you can guess why that started happening; precisely because of people like him.
It all depends on the company of course.

I worked at a place where if you left your laptop unlocked, anyone could use your slack account to announce you were buying breakfast for the team tomorrow. That was more effective than any training video they could have made us watch. But I obviously wouldn't do something like that as a lone wolf.
I find this comment interesting: https://mastodon.matrix.org/@element/113848890455666110 where IMO it is stated that Deutsche Telekom (with HessenConnect 2.0) did the free-riding and "directly contributed to layoffs at Element in 2022 and 2023". It sounds as if Telekom changed its mind after an initial contract or something. Or was Telekom one of many companies that did a similar thing?

I know from my own experience that making money based on an open source project is extremely challenging.

However, I don't understand why they frame their Pro version in this way and point to failure instead of success. I can't think of a better way (they will have to do the work :)). But it's already a good thing if they've won them as "Matrix believers", and they shouldn't scare them to get there.

Self-hosted PDS? If so, if it's possible to spin up a temporary PDS with TryCloudflare for the initial set up and keep the did.json hosted on static site instead?
Ehhh, is there any reason I should be worried about that? The <img> tag would have to be in a spot where users are likely to go, otherwise users will never view the <img> tag. A link of any kind to the honeypot isn't likely to, for example, go viral on social media, because it's going to appear as a broken link/image and nobody will upvote it. I'm not seeing an attack vector that gets this link in front of my users with enough frequency to be worth considering.

A bigger concern is arguably users who are all behind the same IP address, i.e. some of the sites I work on have employee-only parts which can only be accessed via VPN, so in theory one employee could get the whole company banned, and that would be tricky to figure out. So far that hasn't been a problem, but now that I'm thinking about it, maybe I should have a whitelist override for that. :)
These days you need a CPU, a GPU, a NPU and a TPU (not Tensor, but Teams Processing Unit).

In my case, the TPU is a seperate Mac that also does Outlook, and the real work gets done on the Linux laptop. I refer to this as the airgap to protect my sanity.
Yeah, as a past contributor and long-running homeserver admin I feel pretty rugpulled here. This violates the expectations set in past communications. Synapse was something very different to Element.

(This would at least for me have had a very different taste and reception if the private for-profit alternative would have been done under a different branding than "Synapse Pro" and not hijacking matrix.org community channels to promote it. They don't seem to be able to keep their hats and chairs properly separated)

You will have a hard time constructing Markov Chain that correctly models the real-time evolution of physical quantum-mechanical observables. The problem is that the transition matrix that governs quantum-mechanical evolution is exp[i t H], which is not a well-formed probability distribution.
