"Ourmandave was mistakenly identified by Internet Sleuths and is NOT the shooter in the Grassy Knoll."
I would look at why you're outsourcing this thinking to HN instead of putting together data and an understanding of your own environment.

Or just ask the LLM's to write it for you.
This API only model with a 1M context window was released back in Nov. Just for some historical context.

I mean, diversify, sure, but not into _everything_. Like, there are plenty of old fax machines around, but you probably shouldn’t add any to your portfolio. You have to consider whether the diversification is into something sensible.
I've got coding to work, but you do need to change how you manage your windows. They've got the resolution but the virtual screen is too far away, so you need to magnify the text and keep what you're working on centred.
If it’s a clear message, they will simply avoid your AI identification heuristics. Better to feed them 404s so they eventually give up (or you drop their requests with no response, assuming known IP blocks crawls originate from). The less signal provided, the better, broadly speaking.
I think it's less bot marketing but more that a lot people hate C-suites. And a lot people hate the USA.

The narrative is the USA can never win. Even the whole AI trend was entirely started by the US companies, the moment a Chinese company publishes something resembling the SOTA it becomes the evidence of the fall of the USA.
We are one government/imperial collapse from US stocks losing all value. Historically which is more likely to happen?
Because it's not a right and left issue, it's a "my investments must go up and poor people can get fucked" issue.
I think you mean American EV competition. China has a very large and primarily-unknown-to-the-average-American large EV industry. It's not just Tesla.
Not sure what you mean. Cutting edge computing has never been cheap. And a Mac Studio is definitely within the budget of a software developer in Norway. Not going to feel like a cheap investment, but definitely something that would be doable. Unlike a cluster of H100 GPUs, which would cost as much as a small apartment in Oslo.

And you can easily get a dev job in Norway without having to run an LLM locally on your computer.
It’s a double-edged sword. If the press is prohibited from reporting on arrests, you can end up with people just apprehended without a trace. The US certainly isn't above that, especially for "national security concerns."

I’m not sure what the right balance looks like, but it’s definitely not a straightforward issue to resolve.
Poisoning. Like cops posting fake speed trap locations on Waze.
No, this is not the first local model with a context length of greater than 128k, there have been such models, for example the following

The irony - people looking to buy a house in Bay area laugh at my 6K mortgage because it’s so ridiculously low to them.
The parent comment feels like a “Reddit” comment. It appears when taken at face value defamatory and potentially in violation of California law. It implies guilt and does not use words like allegedly for things that have not been proven.

This seems like an unwise post to make, and adds nothing to the discussion. It very well may also violate the rules of HN.
Misread me, but as it happens, I might have seen exactly that.

I didn't ask for it, one of the Phi models got confused part way though and started giving me a python script for machine learning instead of what I actually asked for.

I'm saying I have no evidence that humans have ever demonstrated this capability either, and if we were to invent such an algorithm and model (even more generally than LLM) the AI that is this would by definition necessarily have to pass this test.
And there are patterns for that, that allow you to convert a static exclusivity check into a dynamic exclusivity check - something like a mutex, where multiple threads can simultaneously hold a mutex, but only one thread at a time can gain access to the contents of that mutex. You still enforce that mutation requires exclusive access to an object, but you are now enforcing that at runtime instead of compile time.

You never want multiple threads to be mutating the same data without some form of synchronisation, but with ownership rules, you can still have that synchronisation.
It's a problem, but the counterbalancing problem is (IMO) an equally big one: the public has a legitimate interest in how the criminal justice system handles cases, particularly when cases are dismissed before entering a public trial period.

Florida has the worst possible version of this, where local governments/PDs appear to revel in publishing mugshots with virtually no pretense. But if I was a taxpaying citizen in SF, I believe I would be right in feeling entitled to read more about why a domestic violence case with a pre-existing written statement was dismissed and then sealed.
> There literally was an outbreak among lab workers in November to December of 2019.

No, there wasn't.

The 1st Trump administration leaked a rumor to the press that three workers got a respiratory virus sometime in the winter in 2019. Even if true, that's completely uninteresting. A large percentage of Earth's population gets any number of respiratory viruses every winter.

I have no idea where you're getting the rest of the details that you're claiming ("looks vaguely like COVID," "quarantined over it," etc.). They're not even in the Trump administration's leaks, and I suspect you're getting them from the online rumor mill.

> And we only know about the research they published, not what goes unpublished.

We actually know much more than what gets published. Researchers from the Wuhan Institute of Virology regularly go and give talks at international conferences. There are visiting scientists at the WIV from other countries, including the United States. WIV scientists upload RNA sequences that they gather in the field to US-based gene-sequence databases. This wasn't secret research. It was out in the open. They would have had no reason at all to conceal the progenitor of SARS-CoV-2 if they had had it. Yet there's no indication whatsoever that they had it. Everything we know indicates that they were just as clueless about the virus when the outbreak began as everyone else.
What about GF2P8AFFINEINVQB?
Meanwhile domestic energy production hit record highs under the Biden administration.
Ty for the heads up. I think I identified the issue (not, sure why it was affecting some users and not others). Updated! Might take a little time to propagate.
Maybe, but I’d stay very far away from bitcoin options or any funds that deal in them. They are likely paying a lot in fees and taking hidden risks that will be passed on to shareholders.
This one? https://www.techemails.com/p/bill-gates-tries-to-install-mov...
I can't remember the last time I saw news reports about an arrest where the arrestee plausibly benefited from the story being publicized. Maybe Snowden (who I think was charged but not arrested)?

I think you'll find that where the state has an interest in keeping something under wraps it will be kept under wraps. Most arrest reports are of the casual voyeuristic kind, not serious journalism trying to keep the government accountable.
You're arguing against Wayland, but for a more secure Linux desktop? I recommend you spend more time getting to know the X11 protocol then, because it has plenty of design decisions that simply cannot be secured. The same people who used to develop XFree86 designed Wayland to fix things that could not be fixed in the scope of X11.
Could definitely use this with some of the PG mailing list threads.
Vanguard can have whatever policy it wants to, it's a free country.

But I do think it's somewhat hypocritical of them to not have things like gold and bitcoin when they do give access to other currencies -- many who's fate is also ultimately dependent on political decisions and global social consensus.

It's one thing to say we're not going to be let people speculate -- it's also another to say we're not going to let people hold assets that can hedge against global turmoil or hyperinflationary periods.

In terms of returns, I agree -- bitcoin's supposed "return" doesn't come from a productive use case in the same sense as other forms of capital (at least not yet.. though it is increasingly being used as a productive form of collateral in many cases, much in the same way that gold used to be used in contracts). But if you believe there is a trend of net shift in consensus away from gold and towards bitcoin, then it's also easy to see why you might expect the price per unit of bitcoin to go up.

It seems weird to me that vanguard lets you a make a statement like "I believe in the US gov's solvency so I'm going to hold all my financial worth in a sweep fund that earns money off of short term gov debt", but then at the same time not say things like "I think there's a small chance that the US gov might f' it up, or the balance of economic powers might shift in the world and so I want to hold other consensus assets that might diversify outcomes in those scenarios".
In a healthy economy I would expect the government to prevent that level of concentration and ensure that every potato producer and every potato buyer had multiple local options for processing and distribution. Like you said, mature technology, very little innovation or geographic specificity - anyone with startup capital should be able to get in the business. Instead we let a handful of corporations define and regulate the market for their own benefit. How does that make any sense?
I think they're pointing out the Streisand Effect at play here.

You are probably being downvoted because your comment is not very helpful, and also a bit rude (ending with "dude").

It would be more helpful to provide some information on why you think this person is not using R1. For example:

You are not using DeepSeek-R1, but a much smaller LLM that was merely fine-tuned with data taken from R1, in a process called "distillation". DeepSeek-R1 is huge (671B parameters), and is not something one can expect to run on their laptop.
Problem with stablecoins is that in reality they are just extremely fancy IOUs or namely debt. Issuer promises to give money back. And if they don't well best you can do is to sue them.
> I can't remember the last time I saw news reports about an arrest where the arrestee plausibly benefited from the story being publicized.

The current POTUS and O.J. Simpson come to mind.
> One good example of this might end up being the American energy policy under Trump (with emphasis on the word "might"). Energy costs being high can be well-solved by increasing the supply of energy (drilling, etc).

But energy supply (by many different metrics) have been increasing for years. So either (a) energy costs are not high (b) increasing energy supply will not affect energy costs (c) it takes way more energy supply than we've seen over the last several years to affect energy costs.
Its very interesting, but I would love to see other Wayland implementations other than GNOME's. Its kind of hard to tell if its the GNOME specific implementation or if this is going to be a trend across KDE X vs KDE wayland and specific window managers like sway -> i3 and hyprland etc... But still a really cool blog post.
It's all well and good in theory, but no one publishes the follow-ups because they don't get engagement. Unless there's a very good story behind it, the vast majority of dismissals go entirely unreported, so the only record you get is that so and so was arrested. If it turns out that they arrest someone else for the same crime, you might get a follow-up that mentions that the original person was exonerated. But you certainly don't get a report that "such and such wasn't actually as exciting as it first appeared so charges were dropped".

As you say, this case is the exception, but there has to be a decent middle ground that allows exceptions and doesn't allow casual voyeurism.
Hardware cursor is still a thing to this day on pretty much all platforms.
Right now I’m typing on a glass screen that pretends to have a keyboard on it that is running a web browser developed with a UI toolkit in a programming language that compiles down to an intermediate bytecode that’s compiled to machine code that’s actually interpreted as microcode on the processor, half of it is farmed out to accelerators and coprocessors of various kinds, all assembled out of a gajillion transistors that neatly hide the fact that we’ve somehow made it possible to make sand think.

The number of layers of abstraction you’re already relying on just to post this comment is nigh uncountable. Abstraction is literally the only way we’ve continued to make progress in any technological endeavor.
X had garbage handling of multiple monitors and especially multiple monitors with different DPIs, and there was "no plan" to deal with that either. Nobody wanted to work on the X codebase anymore. The architecture bore no resemblance to the way any other part of the desktop stack (or hardware) works.
If you’re buying stocks in a company which _doesn’t have a working product_, then, er, yeah, that’s not a million miles away. You probably shouldn’t do that. Arguably those stocks should never have made it onto the public markets; where this happens it’s generally due to SPACs, which arguably should never have been allowed in the first place.

“Losing money” is a bit different; if a company is, deliberately, investing in growth rather than generating a net profit, that _can_ be a _good_ thing, as it implies greater future profits. Amazon, say, _could_ have become profitable far earlier than it did, but it would be a much smaller company if it had. If they’re buying something for $20 and selling it for $10, then yeah, not so much, but again that’s in the class of companies that you should not invest in, that most people do not invest in (they’re not in the major indexes), and that arguably should never have been allowed to float.

When people talk about investing in the markets, they’re usually talking about either investing in an index, or in some approximation of an index (whether through active management or cobbling together their own portfolio of real companies which will generally more or less mirror the top 10 of at least one major index). They’re not talking about buying shares in weird scam companies; _that_ is speculation.

>> was arrested in 2021 for domestic violence for beating up his girlfriend.

The 2021 arrest (and charges) seem plainly factual. Is your position that the arrest might not have happened?
Affordable housing are the old "luxury" apartments people vacate to go live in the new luxury apartments. Fighting new luxury builds is dumb, because you need them to free up the old builds for lower income.
Good point. I agree actually, many people do put the work in to understand the whole stack. But one person could not have built the whole thing themselves obviously. All I was trying to say is we already live with superhuman intelligences every day, they are called "teams".
Not just small newsrooms; Gawker was plenty big.

The Platform for the Universal Personal Assistant
The quest to build the universal personal assistant (UPA) has been reignited, with both OpenAI and Google going head to head. But what would the ultimate personal assistant look like? Would it be an app, a browser, an OS, or even a physical robot?
Reminds me of the Tuareg peoples.
OJ was pre Snowden, but I'll take the POTUS as an example! Not a great argument in favor of allowing the reports, though.
By died out I meant the household aspect is gone, the original meaning included things like paying a carpenter to fix your roof which just seems like an alien use of the term. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oeconomicus Outside any transaction playing a role in the overall economy.

I suspect it shifted with the rise of companies and machinery. So I agree people talk about a ships fuel economy they are referring to efficiency, but the non efficiency aspects of the original definition is absent. Meaning people talking about the economy being good because they got a raise isn’t referring to household budgets but the wider economic system.
There’s some strategic ambiguity going on here. If you’re going to a protest that looks like the Women’s March on Inauguration Day of 2017, you don’t have to worry about this kind of thing. If you’re starting fires or breaking into the Capitol building, you definitely do have to worry about this sort of thing. And just to make things even muddier, the exact same protest can radically change from one to the other based on specifics of time and place. In the summer of 2020, Seattle and Portland had mostly peaceful and uneventful protests by day in the exact same places where shootings and arsons would break out after dark, while on January 6th, just as some of the rioters were trying to force their way through the windows on one side of the Capitol building and clashing with Capitol Police, on the other side of the Capitol they were peacefully walking through wide open gates and doorways and milling around in the hallways as the Capitol Police looked on. And yeah, the peaceful ones get prosecuted sometimes too.
Just finished Kara Swisher's Burn Book today, in which she says she does not report on such scoops unless personal matters have a repeated pattern or could affect a company's stock. It never occurred to me that there is such a choice to make here, but after thinking about it a bit, I realized that this is what distinguishes a bad journalist who writes an article that could end up hurting people more and make matters worse (e.g. about people who are going through divorce), from a good journalist that writes about things that actually matter to shareholders and to the industry.
Congratulations on starting!

the Go way of as few dependencies as possible and no opinionated frameworks

That is highly opinionated and the opinion is based on Google’s business model, resources, operational strategies and engineering wherewithal. No startup has anything like any of them.
Sure. But perhaps some hype is justified? Here's what a senior research scientist from nvidia says:

> We are living in a timeline where a non-US company is keeping the original mission of OpenAI alive - truly open, frontier research that empowers all. It makes no sense. The most entertaining outcome is the most likely.

> DeepSeek-R1 not only open-sources a barrage of models but also spills all the training secrets. They are perhaps the first OSS project that shows major, sustained growth of an RL flywheel. (…)

In college, I took a computer architecture course that briefly went into CPU microcode. The fake CPU we studied divided opcodes into bit fields where a certain bit caused a certain primitive operation, like maybe triggering an adder. From this you could see that a specific opcode was just a particular composition of the right primitives. "Valid" opcodes were simply the combinations that were useful enough to document, and "invalid" ones were superfluous or meaningless combinations. Once you understand this, illegal/invalid/mystery opcodes are a lot less surprising; rather, they're inevitable.

I was also taking a logic course at the time and dreaming in terms of truth tables, so it was quite a formative time in my early understanding of processor architecture.
Indeed. Other commodities have other strengths; oil can be turned into a huge range of products that make people's lives better, wheat can be literally used to make food to radically enhance people's lived experience, aluminium is a key component in an enormous range of goods covering almost every aspect of life. If what Bitcoin can offer isn't having any actual application that improves anyone's life but is easy to move around, well, gotta go with your only strength, I guess.
Protocols can bake in unfortunate performance implications simply by virtue of defining an interface that doesn't fit the shape needed for good performance. Furthermore, this tends to happen "by default" unless there is a strong voice for performance in the design process.

Hopefully this general concern doesn't apply to Wayland and the "shape" you have described doesn't sound bad, but the devil is in the details.
> If it's a high-value domain, you call the registrar and get it back.

When a domain name is stolen, definitionally it leaves control of the registrar.

> Worst case, you can sue the thief if you hold a trademark for the name.

You can also sue a thief who has a blockchain name. Blockchains don't magically make it so you can't sue someone and win a judgement.

International lawsuits for domain recovery work fine if you're a medium to large company. But "just sue an international thief" doesn't work so well if you're a small business or an individual. In that case, DNS doesn't hold any legal advantage over ENS, whereas ENS allows for much greater flexibility in secure custody setups to prevent theft in the first place.

> There is. It's called "a lawsuit".

And you can just as "easily" sue someone who steals a blockchain name. Just dig past the fake identity they're hiding behind, figure out which city and country they live in, hire a private investigator to determine their name and address, and hire a lawyer that practices in the theif's country but speaks your native language. It's not any harder than suing someone who stole your DNS name.
The biggest new technology where America controls/drives it and all other countries follow along .. we are & continue to be number one in AI technology and all other countries come to and or follow us that brings America billions to trillions of dollars ... the more money we have the more secure & prosperous America is & continues to be. As well creating new AI tech and using it to further protect America from adversaries.

The genie is out of the bottle and America must keep it's momentum in AI up .. ahead of all other countries for it's continued prosperity and security!
you would be wise to in fact do the exact opposite. claim it does more than 10x. ask to spearhead the AI transformation of your company. promise huge cost savings. make your bag. and who knows, maybe you'll actually deliver on those promises as a side effect. and what if not? remember, the senior eng team is there as a convenient scapegoat ...

With that in mind, I would certainly say the choice for those won't be pseudo anonymous currency. As one sting operation and someone keeping too many records will get plenty of people discovered.
