There are large groups of Americans who believe The Handmaidens Tale is a real potential future. The lack of perspective and melodramatic discord in political theater is exhausting.
Agree. We use Rust to build highly performant systems at the lowest level, removing any language-related friction. Our system enables better management and auditing of agent interactions, leading to more effective activations and greater overall impact.
Maybe there's a prime number that makes a mildly interesting picture when rendered in base-2 in a 8*8 grid.

OpenSSL Position and Plans on Private Key Formats for Post-Quantum Algorithms
I'm surprised how little attention Bitbucket-related stories get here. We use it at my work, and it seems to do the job, but I rarely hear about it in the dev community compared to GitHub.

Is GitHub just that much more dominant, or am I missing something?
This is a bizarre response on a platform that frequently discusses moving things off of centralized applications and services out of concern for the long term stability or safety of that platform - you assumed their motives and turned it into a political statement right out of the gate.
To your credit, our approach never worked :)

I totally agree that you'd need to find a reasonable average weekly cost because costs and timing would vary. In my mind, this means you could find a reasonable average weekly cost that you often go under, and seldom go over. But, it just never happened for us. In principle we could have just kept raising the price ceiling, but eventually that becomes meaningless in the context of a budget. To me, at least, it felt just like calories; what could have been a pretty easy math problem was defeated by human psychology.
Reminds me the demonstration that all whole numbers are interesting in a way or another. Being memorable in this case is not so much about memory but about having an easy to notice pattern of digits, or a clear trivial algorithm to build them.
Since creating separate URLs would largely defeat the purpose of caching, a simpler solution would be to just disable caching, as Cloudflare suggested in their response.
I don't know if they still do this, but I remember Special K cereal had identical calories listed for their various varieties, despite obvious differences in the ingredients; they just changed the portion size for each variety.
Well, it's a fact that you're at high risk of a problem with those meds if you have a cardiac, renal or neurologic medical problem. Now, personally and as a doc myself I'm perfectly open to people taking whatever they like if they're aware of the risks they take. I didn't know Viagra was OTC in some countries, but if accompanied by proper warnings, I'm ok with that. And some states are too, it seems. I'm not an expert in the matter, so it's possible I overestimate the risk.
We need a culture of greater collaboration in the channel

That's partly because writing enables time-binding (improvement across the lifetimes of men). Writing does not wither thinking, as such, although it may hurt our memory.
Ask HN: Is AG Grid worth it?
As a young FinTech startup (± 2yo, 10 software developper), we are considering to adopt AG Grid as our main framework to display data table in our VueJS / GraphQL webapp. The licence is pricey and the learning curve does not look quite easy. Is AG Grid really worth it?

Samsung has had 2+ day charge for several generations.
Their software was/is terrible, but since the switch to Google code 2 generations ago it is not bad.
So, one final appeal to logic from me here:

1) You must have tested and realized that these models can spell just fine - break a word into a letter sequence, regardless of how you believe they are doing it

2) As shown above, even when presented with a word already broken into a sequence of letters, the model STILL fails to always correctly count the number of a given letter. You can argue about WHY they fail (different discussion), but regardless they do (if only allowed to output a number).

Now, "how many r's in strawberry", unless memorized, is accomplished by breaking it into a sequence of letters (which it can do fine), then counting the letters in the sequence (which it fails at).

So, you're still sticking to your belief that creating the letter sequence (which it can do fine) is the problem ?!!

Rhetorical question.

I agree. I like nostr the most out of the similar attempts at creating a standards based multi client social graph. Not a huge fan of federated servers like Mastodon. Bluesky seems like it has some good parts with the @ protocol, but is quite bad at non-partisanship in practice.
Don't feel obligated to ask if you are not comfortable, but why are you trying to find a middle ground? When you say middle ground, what does that mean for you? Does that mean you have some faith but maybe not in a particular sect?

I hate this specific journalist because on many occasions she gets things wrong. The author also frequently engages in needlessly gendered debates, including this one. The only reason she's in the industry in the first place is because she's well connected. Another thing is that she has spread so much AI doomerism and yet this article is clearly assisted by AI. I also wish the author wouldn't insert pro Israel and pro Netanyahu statements randomly in her articles.
When my son was in preschool, I went to pick him up one day and the teacher took me aside and said, "we were reading a story about a mom and how she had a baby in her tummy, and your son raised his hand and said, 'That's not true. It's in her uterus!'"

I've never had "the talk" with him, I talked to him continuously through his childhood. As he asked questions, I gave him answers.
Did you even read it? There's no IP leak. And if you're a high target, then using some kind of proxy is literally the first step you take. The attack is nothing but an exaggeration and has no merit in real world
Yeah, but it clearly breaks down the spelling correctly in it's reasoning, e.g. a letter per line. So it gets past the tokenization barrier, but still gets hopelessly confused.
That is… very rare? 2% of college students, and a… pharmacist?

Don’t get me wrong, I definitely interacted with them probably hundreds of times through similar venues. But again, it’s just such a tiny percentage of people. And from what I know from my gay circles, trans people tend to live in areas where they feel safer. Just like the gays did until recent times.

My general moral guideline has been to judge people by their actions. And trying to stick to it without thinking whether a person is straight or whatever. I just never cared, and hope others don’t either. If someone is just an awful person, I exclude them from my life for their actions, rather than who they didn’t choose to be.

But this isn't just claiming to produce some benign facts, it is trying to make claims on absolute truths with consequences as dire as "going to hell".

Even if you don't believe, the creators certainly intend for their bot to have eternal consequences. Like selling an LLM with the claim it can give advice better than most doctors and should be used as such, the intent behind the apologetics bot is just as reckless and conceited.

I know someone who committed a misdemeanor and is on probation, one term of which is that he's not allowed to use "social media" (chat, etc.) although he can use plain ordinary web sites.

This person made the mistake they did because of their social isolation and the probation officer is entirely supportive of his developing more face-to-face connection, but he finds it frustrating to find a poster for something like a board game club which has nothing but a QR code that points to a Facebook page.
But stiffer has no physical meaning that we can measure and is just a random word the researcher chose. There is no equation relating 'stiffness' to field range.

> For LLMs, “open source” is a bit of a misnomer.

This is an understatement: the “source” for an LLM or similar deep learned network is not the weights, but the training data and the scripts required to train it from scratch.
That's marginally better, but can still be a problem. Just consider e.g. a whistleblower working for a company with a very small satellite office in a given country.
Hi Hackers Creator of Needle here. We are launching our SaaS platform to connect different data sources, mostly unstructured, and make building RAG-based chatbots & agents a breeze.

It's a fully managed solution with SDK libraries in Typescript and Python. We believe:

1. Chatting with your whole data must be easier
2. Developing AI agents must focus more on the domain. expertise rather than setting up infra.

With these goals we built Needle, it has a forever free tier so everyone can try. Curious to hear your thoughts!
What powers it is Kagi Search :) All chatbots have access to similar models, what distinguishes the answer quality is/will be the quality of search results fed to them.

Yeah, marketing is full of lies.
The point is that gpt-4o can't read cursive very well. The chain of thought reasoning doesn't seem to help at all. It's a thing the model doesn't generalize to, that's relevant to this discussion.
You can use source material instead of LLMs for all of this.

"Is Bob Geldof's hair blue?" -> Search for Bob Geldof -> Look at images of Bob Geldof.

Intro programming topics can be found at the documentation of the website. Your searching query might be "[programming topic] getting started" and usually if it's a package or a tool there will be documentation. If you want good documentation on web dev stuff that isn't w3schools or geeksforgeeks you can use MDN documentation.

Or, if you really want a general overview there's probably a YouTube video about the topic.

Additionally appending "reddit" to a search will give better results than SEO junk. There are always ways to find quality information via search engines.
As I said in another response, I think (at least partly) a contributing factor was the essentially limitless salary budget that VC funded startups and the FAANG companies had. You had software developers who could suddenly make more than doctors and lawyers and of course many of them sensibly acted in their own best interest but that left other employers saying "we're not going to invest in employees who are only going to turn around and leave for salaries we can't pay" and "if we have to pay those kind of salaries, we're not going to hire junior people we want experience."
Yes, I read it. Information about your IP address is leaked, as that's how Cloudflare routes you to a given datacenter.

And I strongly disagree that being able to uncover somebody's rough geographic location is not a privacy problem.

I wouldn't be surprised if this, for example, lets you deduce if somebody is currently home, at work, or commuting (as all three ISPs might be hitting different Cloudflare datacenters). That's not information everybody is comfortable broadcasting to the world.
Other responses cover this well, but: the idea of having to change 20 functions to accept and propagate a `user` field just so that my database layer can shard based on userid is gross/awful.

...but doing the same with a context object is also gross/awful.

Except many of the most vocal criticizers of progressive prigs come from reactionary prigs and their enablers, and many of the most vocal criticizers of the reactionary prigs come from progressive prigs and their enablers. There isn't really a lot of reflective self criticism - the whole dynamic looks more like a prig battle, with criticizing the current popular fashion myopically just used to attract otherwise disinterested people to the cause of enabling the next trend.

Maybe I've just gotten older and less worried about social consequences, but as priggishness goes the currently-passing fashion felt pretty tame. In the mainstream culture - thirty years ago it was "godlessness". Twenty years ago it was "support our troops". Ten years ago it was "gender". And today it's "woke". Within specific subcultures, "gender" will continue to be one, as "woke" has been for quite some time. When someone starts talking (or even preaching!) with any of these unquestionable assumptions, you just keep your mouth shut, and hold your real thoughts for your real friends with whom you can imperfectly express nuanced views in an environment of good faith rather than getting jumped on for social points.
> They should have an obligation not to censor, because between them they can virtually block all practically available channels of communication

Absolute bullshit. It has never been easier in history to publish your own thoughts for the consumption of anyone who is interested in reading them. You can make your own website and put just about whatever you want on it. You can write and publish pamphlets or books with print on demand services. You can record audio or video with your phone and put it on your website or just send it directly to people. You can walk down to the town square and say pretty much whatever you want.

You absolutely don't need to be on Facebook or Twitter or ANY social networks to exercise your free speech. None of these companies has power over any means of communication other than their own platforms. You don't have to use their platforms.
I tried that, then all I got were crickets.
Very few of us are fascinated with this murderer.

Before looking for a solution, have you checked with your community if there's even interest in an alternative? I have yet to meet a non-tech person that cares about this issue.
hey granted im not an expert like Peter is, But I have gone through a similar series of events as you are describing here. I transferred to the US on a L1B visa in 2022 and after an unfortunate round of layoffs late 2023 I scrambled for another role and managed to get sponsored and obtain O1 status. I had a good background of experience working on some prestigious products, a degree and written testimonials from people "high" up in my industry, studio heads, people high up in award academies etc. there may be extra steps for you as you don't have a degree (if I'm reading that right) but i believe you can prove you have had "equivalent training" to a degree maybe using your experience.

>Or you post a meme to a Californian left-wing group and it gets cached in DC. Not hard to imagine situations where getting an unexpected rough location could be a valuable signal.

Not really. Any public meme group is inevitably going to be monitored by intelligence agencies, and you should assume as such. Even if it isn't, I can imagine agitators from the other side joining the group with a Russian VPN to poison the well. If there's a private group of people that you supposedly trust, any competent mole is going to be using device/network level VPN to cover their tracks. Otherwise they're 1 click away (eg. if someone shared a link) from an opsec fail.

What strikes me is that I alread have a central authoritative store of health and fitness information on my Apple devices bundled directly into the operating system but every single app in that category wants me to use them as the single database of truth instead. Even when they have integration with Health!

Everything goes into Apple Health but individual apps can barely talk to one another. Oura won’t pull heart rate data from Apple Health, so when I track my lifting workouts on my watch (a ring is a no-go for barbell work) it’s not there. Same for my Polar chest strap which I use during judo and BJJ. Oura is completely blind to this despite the data being available and it having access through Health.

Strava only pulls in workouts for apps that have been directly connected to it. So I have to have n:m connections between apps with this model, and only get sync between apps that have explicit Strava integration. For Garmin cycling workouts this works okay. When I integrate with Polar workouts, Strava insists on reduplicating the data back into Apple Health a second time. I have yet to find a way to get the data into Strava but have it recorded once instead sold zero times or twice.

Garmin directly refuses to use anything not recorded from their own devices. It won’t import sleep from my Oura or Withings trackers, heart rate from anything else, etc. Want to use any of the derived metrics in their app? Sorry, you'll need to exclusively use Garmin devices for everything in order to have all that data in place.

The only thing that isn’t a complete shitshow in this entire ecosystem is Apple Health.
90%+ of the effort is just weighing everything and writing it down. If you make a lot of custom dishes that's fine - just save the recipe and measure out the ingredients consistently. Weigh out your portions and it's not a big deal...

People who are tracking everything are usually doing it because they're trying to achieve a particular goal that involves cutting or bulking. I don't know too many people who do rigorous calorie tracking to achieve maintenance unless their body is their profession.
I think what made them not seem excessively large to me, is that it didn't really come with much else? Yes, it was more meat than I would get on a sandwich, typically. But... that is about it?

Maybe I got too used to some of the obscure burrito places around Atlanta that would put way too much on them?
