KAPLAY is just too good as a library to pass up. It's intuitive, easy and comes with a lot built-in. It makes making games actually fun with it's ECS-like API.

If KAPLAY existed as a WASM runtime or in another language, I would use it.

We don’t need exponentially more physical qubits because we have quantum error correction schemes that exponentially decrease the logical error rate with only a polynomial increase in the number of qubits. There are in fact many schemes for this (https://errorcorrectionzoo.org/) with the surface code mentioned in the blog being a leading approach.

Details for how this could work for factoring are here:
https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.09749

There will be engineering challenges to scale up these implementations but in principal you shouldn’t need exponential resources (unless there is something wrong with quantum mechanics). This sort of error correction scaling does not exist, for example, for analog computing.

Wasps absolutely have attack pheromones, and they absolutely spread those when they get injured (in the same way that bees do when they're injured) and when they attack (but here they might be able to do it "consciously"?).

What's nice about wasp stings is that because the stinger with the venom pouch and pump doesn't get stuck in your skin you get a much smaller dose than with a bee sting.

When I've been stung by bees where the stinger didn't get stuck in my skin the sting was no big deal. When the stinger gets stuck in my skin it's much worse.

The thing about company secrets is that once they're exposed (or guessed, or reverse engineered), then anyone can use them. This is essentially security through obscurity, but for ideas. It's not solid.

In particular, it's not a protection against an employee leaving and starting another company that does the same thing. As the employee, you thing that's good, but a business owner would think it's bad.

I know, that viewpoint doesn't help you personally. (Also, many times patents are overkill.) But a company owner may really not like your solution, because from their position, the weaker protections are a threat vector.

Garry Kasparov: Elon Musk is a danger to democracy
Your processor has two P cores, and ten cores total, not twelve. The HyperThreading (SMT) does not make the two P cores into four cores. Your experiment with 4 threads will most likely result in using both P cores and two E cores, as no sane OS would double up threads on the P cores before the E cores were full with one thread each.
There are bees that are monogamous, where the female and the male act a lot more like birds as far as mating and young rearing goes, and there are eusocial bees that where the female absolutely dominates.

Honeybees keep very few males (drones) around, and in the Fall they push them out of the hive and let them die of exposure to the elements. Honeybee workers work themselves to death. The queen is their slave. It's a pretty crappy life, but they make wonderful honey, and they collect wonderful propolis.
I understood it as reestimation with a dynamic weight factor based on the perceived error factor. I know it’s more complex than that but this simplified version I needed at one point and it worked.

Same! If I could convince myself that it would be a calm computing alternative or some other such nonsense to another device I phase out, maybe. Or I could foist the eMate on a kid who has a Chromebook at school, good luck.

What holds me back from any of these less capable devices is that the type of screen is not going to make a difference. I just need to be off the net.
You might be true for the market.

However, that target audience, those hobby enthusiasts, hobby developers, also university labs with low budget, those are the people who will develop the future open source frameworks, and ultimately/implicitly those are the people who can have a quite big impact on the future development of brand recognition and the open source ecosystem around the hardware. Those people can shape the future trends.

So, only looking at the market, how much units you would sell here, that totally ignores the impact this might have indirectly in the future.
In the Scott Aaronson talk he links at the bottom[1], Prof. Aaronson says

> A fourth reason why people didn’t take QC seriously is that, a century after the discovery of QM, some people still harbor doubts about quantum mechanics itself... Or they say things like, “complex Hilbert space in 2^n dimensions is a nice mathematical formalism, but mathematical formalism is not reality”—the kind of thing you say when you want to doubt, but not take full intellectual responsibility for your doubts.

How is that a failure to take intellectual responsibility? (Asking because it's basically what I think[2], but I promise not to argue with any explanation given here. :-)

I appreciate you taking the time to help people understand higher level concepts.

From a different perspective... I have no traditional background in mathematics or physics. I do not understand the first line of the pdf you posted nor do I understand the process for obtaining the context to understand it.

But I have intellectual curiosity. So the best path forward for me understanding is a path that can maintain that curiosity while making progress on understanding. I can reread the The Six (Not So ) Easy Pieces and not understand any of it and still find value in it. I can play with Arnold's cat and, slowly, through no scientific rigor other than the curiosity of the naked ape, I can experience these concepts that have traditionally been behind gates of context I do not possess keys to.

Great anecdote, I really like it and I'll definitely be using it myself with the parties reversed or changed in the future. But I can't help but feel like we're veering even further off topic here, since nobody was talking about the Russians or propaganda. If you had maybe changed the Russians to Chinese it could've been a real zinger, but I can only assume you just wanted to get what you thought would be a quick dunk in on me with your off topic anecdote.
I would have agreed up until a few weeks ago. ChatGPT search is getting better, but kind of superficial so I still preferred Perplexity. But the new Gemini Deep Research is waaay better than Perplexity at deeper Internet searches and I imagine only will continue to get better.

I bet that URL (or a predecessor) resolves to a 404 page that has a broken link on it. technically your problem.
The idea is that there is one task that does the locking. It does so by copying a value from a memory location A to B, when B is equal 0 (the initial value) at regular intervals. Any task that wants to get the lock, writes a unique task identifier (unequal to 0) to memory location A and starts polling B. When it becomes equal to its task identifier, it did get the lock. To release the lock, it writes 0 to B. If it did not get the lock and sees that B has become zero, and A is different, it may overwrite A with its own task identifier.

This locking is 'slow' and has 'unfair' behavior.
Did the Google experiment actually hit break even? I got that it had only demonstrated that surface codes did what they were predicted to do. Is it really only a matter of creating more hardware at this point?
It could be a bit of both. The popularity of TikTok indicates that their algorithm for picking relevant videos is pretty damn good. So they may consider that the US market is worth sacrificing for their sovereignty.
That doesn't really help here. TikTok is at an absolute minimum an order of magnitude more valuable than Perplexity, more likely two orders of magnitude. If ownership of NewCo was even roughly proportional to the market value each side is bringing, the ownership structure doesn't meaningfully change compared to TikTok.

And when the ownership structure is the problem, it's obvious that this deal structured as a merger would solve nothing. They'd need to bring a couple of hundred billion to the table; and then we're back to this being just embarrassing, because obviously the money isn't there.

just today using ffmpeg , I was thinking how useful it would be to have an LLM in the logs, explaining what the command you just ran will do
Also the `.service` part is optional anyway for most commands (including the start, stop, restart etc. ones they use in their examples). Only commands that can operate on services and other non-service units require it.
Slower, single threaded, greatly increases binary size, separate heap from JS so bad interop with extern refs. Wasm GC is a great thing.

Where is that documented? Fwiw, interactive use suggests they are not available to later invocations of the model. Any evidence this isn't the case?
Because people don't trust their own government and want to see the content that their government hides/dislikes, the tiktok ban was in part motiviated and accelerated by tiktok not making its algorithm biased against Palestinian content.
this is redundant; why not just use simonwilson's `llm` that can do this too?

* flagged.
I'm not sure why people keep expecting ByteDance to actually sell TikTok. The US isn't even that big of a market for them in global terms. India was a bigger market for them, and it was way bigger than the US. They're just going to shut down in US and focus on BRICS countries instead.

That was my frustration as well; and it comes up in discussions. Simple to medium complex things are easy in Inform7, but when you start hitting the edges, you find out that its expressive English-like syntax is in the uncanny valley and exactly how you phrase things becomes vitally important and difficult to discern, even from the mounds of documentation it generates from your story file and from the standard library and extensions.

By human standards, sure.

Weird take I know, but since only one female bee in the hive passes along her genes (which are shared with the other bees), it's a very different incentive structure.

BTW, when I get stung, if the stinger doesn't get stuck I sometimes don't even notice till much later -- this happens when I get stung through my gloves. If the stinger does get stuck in my skin the first thing I notice is the buzzing of the bee that stung me. The frequency of the buzzing of the bee that stung me and that is trying to rip off the stinger is absolutely terrifying because I know what comes next: a dozen more bees will flock right to where the one bee stung me and will all try to sting me, and since the one bee was able to it might be the case that her sisters will succeed as well. That buzzing spreads her injury pheromones, and the frequency of its sound also acts as a very loud and clear signal to her sisters. The buzzing lasts about 1 second or less; the pain from the sting comes a second or two later. It takes her sisters about 1 to 2 seconds to find the bee that stings successfully. Getting stung by a dozen bees at once is panic inducing, and the swelling that will create will take two weeks to subside. I was stung 13 times at once one time, and 5 times another time. It's no fun.
Watching a youtube video by a beekeeper demonstrating that a bee stuck in his arm will gently wiggle itself around until it can pull free and fly away. Between that one guy with his live demonstration and his plentiful experience being stung by bees, and you with everything you've ever read, I'm obviously going to stick with him.

You should read better sources.

Here, an example of how bees behave after stinging meat: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/7wH8dYiGbig

A bee that stings meat will pull itself out unharmed, if you let it.

Why would anyone have people implementing Kalman filters who found the math behind them "esoteric"?

Back in the day, in my wet behind the ears phase, my first time implementing a Kalman Filter from scratch, the application was to perform magnetic heading normalisation for on mag data from an airborne geophysical survey - 3 axis nanotesla sensor inputs on each wing and tail boom requiring a per survey calibration pattern to normalise the readings over a fixed location regardless of heading.

This was buried as part of a suite requiring calculation of the geomagnetic reference field (a big paramaterised spherical harmonic equation), upward, downward and reduce to pole continuations of magnetic field equations, raw GPS post processing corrections, etc.

where "etc" goes on for a shelf full of books with a dense chunk of applied mathematics
> Ideally no one's art would be hindered by having to track down and pay someone for creating something in another "artist's style".

After "you" tracked them down, slurped up their art and spent a lot of electricity to garble it, it's oddly convenient to suddenly get lazy when it comes to giving credit.

And being able to understand, even SEE (or hear etc.) something well enough you can re-create it, that's one thing. That at least implies some common experience between artist and copycat, even in the case of just straight copying the style. Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, right? But copying and then garbling it with algorithms, forever and ever and ever, is something else entirely. Different enough that artists should opt-in.

It's like what killer robots are what to soldiers, too, and I'm not joking. At least until now, to create a lot of propaganda in text and image you would have to at least convince or force a proportional amount of humans to do it, which is harder the more atrocities and people they know and love are involved. No such qualms with machines, and no scaling issues.

And hey, the constant drowning out of intelligent and still applicable things that already have been made, in favor of some product, some content, some "take", produced by something someone who happens to live right now (which makes it important I see their thing, and not something made in the past that would do more for me) is already a problem without any machines involved. So I want to be able to opt-in as consumer, too. I don't want to restrict the choice of others, but it just allowing to mingle and drown out everything else by being infinitely cheap to produce predictably will destroy my choice.

If it's so great for creativity, and the results so great, neither should be an issue. I mean, the way you make it sound artists should be pushing for it -- where are they? And if barely any artists want to give away their art for it, and only computer people want them to, well, then the people who want their machines to make art will have to learn making art themselves, first. That is not too much to ask.

No lover of language looks at the output of LLM and thinks "I want to write like that". People who can't write (or "don't have the time" for the thought process while still oddly feeling entitled to the appearance of it) see that, want it for themselves, because it's better than what they can make. Same or even worse with music.
Great comment, hard to argue with that.
The hyperthreading should cover up memory latency, since the workload (compiling qemu) might not fit into L3 cache. Although I take your point that it doesn't magically create two core-equivalents.
Show HN: Surfer a browser that blocks the many of the most visited websites
I've had an idea for a while of a web browser that blocks the world's most popular websites as I've gotten very tired of spending a lot of time on the same select few and was missing the days when I used to explore and surf the web.

So last weekend when I found one of Qt's Pyside based web browser examples I decide to actually build out the idea as a fun little project.

Now as for Surfer itself the landing page is marginalia-search but I've also have bookmarks to wiby.me and neocities to help kickstart exploring.

While not the most cutting edge it is fun to use because as it breaks up the habit of visiting the same few websites everyday.

Let me know if you have any questions, know of any other good websites to have bookmarked by default, or have any simple features that you think would improve it.
Next Forester Hybrid will get hybrid technology from Toyota:

https://www.motor1.com/news/696979/subaru-forester-hybrid-to...
It might; it's not going to do the same thing. The LLM will tell you words that would likely appear in a similar text. Word frequency will tell you words that have actually appeared in your text. I'm postulating that the first kind of list is much more likely to show strong overlap between two similar documents than the second kind of list.

Vocabulary style matters a lot to what words are actually used, but much less to what words are likely to be used. If I'm following a style guide that says to use "automobile" instead of "car", appearance probabilities for "automobile" will be greatly inflated. And appearance probabilities for "car" will also be greatly inflated, just to a lesser extent than for "automobile". Whereas actual usage of "car" will be pegged at zero.

Determining how similar two texts are is something that an LLM should be good at. It should be better than a simple comparison of word frequency. Whether it's better enough to justify the extra compute is a different question.
Not really. The bee that stings you will flap her wings very vigorously, and it will rip its stinger off in less than a second trying to get away from you. Unless you're deliberately trying to get stung and save her, you won't have a chance.
Thanks!

I've put quite a lot of work into it and wanted the project to give a good first impression. This was important to me since I believe these "niche" TUI libraries need to immediately show what problems they are solving or how they save time, as users need a reason to _use_ an additional abstraction layer.
Well, regardless of how it reads, that is not the case.
That should be crystal clear to the hn crowd, or is that no longer the case?
