I've only used Github desktop briefly so I can't say much about it, was commenting on the web UI. I suppose if I was using a lot of GitHub functionality vs. just using github.com as a repo things might be different and I'd give Github desktop another try.
What is cursor in this context? A vim plugin?
Don't they have flex sensor harvesting ideas, take a bunch of those plant em somewhere provide data like ocean buoys.
I've had some luck by misusing older hardware designed for network appliances. I picked up an older Protectli Vault used on eBay for something like $65 and it's more capable in practice than I would've thought. (Makes sense I guess, considering it was built to do packet filtering and VPN termination all day.)
Very similar, but Wasm has additional safety properties and affordances. I am trying to get away from dynamic libs as an app extension mechanism. It is especially nice when application extension is open to end users, they won't be able to crash your application shell.

> These “limitations” inhibit truly intelligent behavior in machines, LeCun says. This is down to four key reasons: a lack of understanding of the physical world; a lack of persistent memory; a lack of reasoning; and a lack of complex planning capabilities.
Ketamine induces plasticity in a norepinephrine-astroglial circuit in zebrafish
Some time in the 80s (or maybe even 90s?) Bill Joy said he just uses ed, even though he's the original author of vi. That worked for him. I believe Linus still uses that 1980s Emacs-y clone that he kind of maintains for himself. jwz uses some flavour of Lucid Emacs/XEmacs from who-knows-when instead of "standard" GNU Emacs.

In the end, it doesn't really matter what other people are using. If Vim (or Emacs) works for you, then you can basically keep using it until the end of time since code are just text files, and these things don't really change all that much (outside of encodings, which is the biggest problem with older editors – but I don't see UTF-8 replaced any time soon, if ever).

I don't really know what the kids these days are up to, but I don't think it really matters. I guess there's still few Bill Joys around using ed, but the existence of vi, Vim, VSCode, or anything else doesn't really take away anything for them.

Not if you're heavy on NVDA though I guess.

Seriously though, I think this will hit a threshold where these communication tools become useless. Email, phone, web, social media, will just be so full of AI spam we'll be warming the planet in a never ending game of cat and mouse. It's so stupid it sounds like something straight out of Hitchhiker's.

Stopping runaway positive feedback loops are nigh impossible after the point of no return. You have to wait for equilibrium, whether that's habitable (probably not).
There is a tailscale addon. Simple install it, then install on any device you want to connect, phone, etc. Could not be easier.

Not yet. The Linux kernel uses linker scripts, which Wild doesn't yet support. I'd like to add support for linker scripts at some point, but it's some way down the priority list.

If they’re talking about the Cursor I’m familiar with, it is “The AI Editor”. Basically it’s a fork of vscode with LLMs built in

Brought me back from hibernation it did…

Go for it. Pull out of Europe and make them do it themselves. Don’t be surprised when nobody helps against China, or when competitive aerospace industries grow stronger, or when increased spending on national forces is seen as political and economic stimulus by the EU.

Going to be hard to deploy anywhere if the only bases are in CONUS. Going to lose a lot of f35 and other hardware sales, and the local tech industries will appreciate the funds. Boots on the ground and weapons on their shoulders. Ukraine showed the value of drones and portables.

Remember, a major goal of NATO was to reduce the need for Germany to go it solo with an army. Make it fear its neighbours and, well, that always didn’t go well in the past.
I still prefer neovim+lazy, but Zed is really pretty good and way way way faster than VSCode. Really, my only stumbling block with Zed is simply that while its vim mode is pretty decent, it's not the same as my neovim+lazy setup. However as pointed out in TFA, it looks like the Zed folks are doubling down on the vim bindings:

https://zed.dev/blog/vim-2025

It's be kinda cool if Zed had a TUI mode (in that the rendering engine would generate VT escape sequences).
I think people assume that because the actual contents of the media are basically identical, that the physical and digital/streamed media are functionally equivalent, but they offer very different experiences.

You have a really awesome relationship with the physical media your dad left you. I imagine you play the vinyls on some kind of stereo and not in airpods or whatever? The medium asks you to use it to create an experience, an environment. Streaming doesn't care, so long as you're Consuming Content.

With the enshittification of Spotify (really? Ads for AI generated bullshit on my PAID account???) I really want to retreat back into the domain of Local Copy.

Sony BMG can't enshittify a CD you already own. Random House can't take back a book I bought in the 90s.

I hope that we have a renaissance of physical media as people realize that streaming companies don't respect our desires about how we listen/watch/read things.
Are there many and do they have any influence? I haven't heard anything from such groups. Have they gotten any laws passed, like the age verification laws the other groups have succeeded in passing in several states?
And you’d absolutely fail mine for on both technical grounds, and hyper focus on irrelevant details. “could have triggered a global mass extinction event” WTF

I can only hope you’re never involved in safety critical systems. Procedures simply can’t account for multiple independent failures at the same time in complex systems without defaulting to individual judgment, the problem space just grows too large.

Add to HA, and set 'area' or 'label' to the same as all your other leak sensors. Use the area or label in your automation.

I find HA joyously easy to use. I have my garage door, lights all around the house, thermostats, hot water recirculation system, doorbell, lutron blinds, and ceiling fans. The automations are easy to make, and have been getting easier over the last few years with HA improvements. (and same as others in this discussion, I use zigbee smart switches. The GE brand ones are great).

The Reddis/Valkey thing has been a source of some annoyance in my world, but thank my stars there are adults in charge on both sides and there's not some manbaby threatening to burn his side down if he doesn't get his way and take his users with him.
I don't like the smell test because the smell test usually depends upon hindsight. Granted, I also don't like how most of these (supposed) quotes are interpreted: as a foolish lack of insight from industry leaders.

Take actual IBM quote in context. Not only was the 701 a tube based machine, memory was a huge problem at the time, and computers were still being designed for business or scientific applications. The 701 was a scientific machine. It's use was pretty much limited to univiersities and military applications. It doesn't much matter wheter the number was 5 or 18 or 500, the potential market was limited. On the other hand, I doubt that IBM held similar views on machines targetted at the business market. Given how early in the history of programmable digital computers this was, it wasn't entirely clear the situation would change. That took the development of integrated circuits for both logic and memory. (The transistor may have been a prerequisite for the development of ICs, but they were insufficient for the development of computers that were accessible to anyone outside of major institutions. They were simply too expensive to reliably manufacture at scale.)

If it works for you then great, I guess. But that sounds like the equivalent of using nail clippers to mow the lawn. You're forgoing a good tool for an absolutely terrible tool.
If you can implement it in C++ with no dependencies, you can also just, do the same with rust. Like just don't add dependencies.
My understanding is that it's a technical limitation. I read somewhere (maybe a post here on Hacker News) that back in the good old days of telephone monopoly, there was nobody to abuse a zero-security feature like "spoof the number" except the phone company itself, and it was useful for large local corporate phone networks.
Or just to have the Fit continued. Sorry Honda, I don't want an HR-V and that probably means my next car won't be a Honda.

The discontinuation of the Fit goes to the heart of the gaslighting that consumers get from the car industry. Consumers definitely reject sedans, US consumers love hatchbacks, but mainly they get hatchbacks in the form of SUVs. Try to actually buy a compact hatchback and dealers have a large number of excuses like: "the factory washed out in a flood" and I say "how come you've got 100 SUVs that nobody wants sitting unsold in a row that are made in the same factory?" I'd just love to see an auto journalist stand up to it for once rather than parrot the line that the US consumer insists on SUVs like the brainwashed soldiers in The Manchurian Candidate.
It’s a little funny that the reason you wrote your own was because you found mine to be flawed, only to find out there were flaws in your own that might swing the whole conclusion you were hoping for!

Lots of answers about why, and it could be one or many of them. Scammy reasons likely.

A somewhat innocent reason could be that someone sent a newsletter email or shared a link to your site, but mistyped the URL, so to save their users from getting NXDOMAIN errors l, or even worse, someone registering it with illintentions, they registered and 301 redirected to you.
I have been a musician at this point for 35+ years. The quote from the Suno CEO is beyond absurd.

I have spent quite a number of hours with MusicLM in AI test kitchen. To me, that is actually a new form of music synthesis. Synthesis in the context of FM, subtractive, etc.

I suspect MusicLM had some tracks removed from the training data because it use to make absolutely wildly creative psytrance clips and now it just doesn't.

Suno on the other hand to me has basically been a complete joke. The training data is just not wide enough to do anything interesting and new.

I think the only way to really use these tools creatively would be to produce your own trained model with AudioLM. The creative use then is in the musical output and not selling the model as yet another SaaS for $x.99 a month.

Of course, you could use Suno to create loops and sample material. The way midjourney is the greatest thing possible for digital collage in Krita/Photoshop.

GenAI art though on its own be it midjourney, stable diffusion, Suno, MusicLM, whatever already jumped the shark for me a year ago. The problem ultimately is the output is just so very limited.
nice points. the parallel with guitar really made it click for me thx =) makes total sense!
> It generally requires operators to know how the systems work in great detail which would have avoided the specific Chernobyl incident.

Hence the above comment doesn't fit with the discussion.
The level of "bad" being done by the engineers was right out of the "never do this" list of actions. Unfortunately there's a lot of evidence that bravado or "experience" is what led to them thinking that they knew better.

Not following procedure is fine if it's turn it left not right. It's not good when instead of turning a valve they take a hammer to it. That's throwing instructions away and so makes any sensible discussion from there on mute.
aligns with (or is based on) Demis Hassabis' assessment from yesterday on missing cognitive capabilities for AGI: long-term memory, reasoning, hierarchical planning. He then goes on to suggest scientific creativity may be essential.

I won't claim to have any proof in hand, but there's still something fishy about it all. I think things like Banach-Tarsky and such ought to be treated as counter examples to show the absurdity of the Reals.

At times I've thought maybe the problem with diagonalization is forcing me to do a (countably) infinite number of steps before Cantor gets to take an infinite number of steps. For instance, I can give a trivial counting scheme and claim it will eventually generate every number between zero and one, perhaps by writing a program to write programs that generate digits. It's all very deterministic, and I state exactly what I'm doing up front.

So I give the first number (program), and Cantor gives his first digit and says it's not in my list. Then I tell Cantor the countably infinite number of places where his first digit is found, and we select those programs. Then he gives me his second digit, and I select the subset where those are found. So we go back and forth, he keeps saying his number so far is not in my list, and I keep telling him all the places where it is in the list... Feels like stalemate there.

There are other places (such as summing the alternating harmonic series) where you have to be very careful about the ordering of operations. If he really has a higher order infinity of numbers not in my list, maybe I should be able to ask him for his list first, no? It's uncountably infinite, but he can't provide even one of them.
ohhh that's what the geo is in reference to. Awesome, thanks!

Still a bit of a gray area because there's not set "geocities" or "myspace" style, but I'll include stuff like this for now
The problem is verifying which number is correct. In most cases it's pretty easy. Bank? Call the number on a debit card. Google? Good luck even finding their number.

But I do agree with you. They can leave a message and a way to contact back if its important and I can take my time doing research. The urgency part is what's caught so many high profile people off guard.
For me the problem is that it takes several seconds for Zed to open a file from across the network. Mostly just small code files. They are instant when I open them with vim in the terminal. I open so many files that the delay becomes a slog.

I've been editing directly in the terminal for many years and was looking forward to moving back to a real desktop IDE, but I bounced right off of this. Does it not happen for you or it's just not that bad? Does anyone know of a solution?
The article only talking about single app per server without using hostnames. That you can do as the app will respond to the IP address. Currently you can't run multiple apps on each servers behind load balancer as the health check will not be successful as there is no way to set the default host.
I wanted to like Zed but tying buffers to tabs is a deal breaker for me. They have really good vim motion support but don't let you view any buffer in any pane.
It was about excluding people different from you. He uses Nazi as straw men because they reference a character that doesn't exist and that would never be in a bar in New York. But this is the one thing he remembers and lives his life by.

He has never met or even seen a Nazi. He wants you to exclude those different from you. We need to include.
I was doing a personal side project for a while where I was trying to make my own little Wayback Machine-alike. Mine was very rudimentary, built on top of Firefox and WebDriver plus Squid proxy.

For debugging purposes you could have your headless browser function as a HTTP Proxy Server, maybe? And in your headless browser you could capture a static snapshot of the DOM after your JavaScript runtime has executed the scripts for the page. Similar to how the archive.today guy serves static snapshots of websites. And then developers using your headless browser could point their Firefox or Chrome browser to the HTTP Proxy server hosted by your headless browser program, in order to get a static snapshot view of what the DOM is like after your headless browser has executed JavaScript from the page. And then Firefox or Chrome will render static HTML view of what the page looked like to your headless browser, that the developer can inspect to make decisions about further interactions with the page. As a tool for debugging.

Thanks for sharing! I'll look into these.

A noob q: Is there a reason why you choose Iridium over Firefox for your browser? I've been using Firefox and thought they were pretty good with security & privacy.

I was thinking Telegram instead of WhatsApp, but there are so many WhatsApp-only groups that I would miss out if I left. You're probably right about it being irreplaceable atm.
The Vic-20 was my first computer, so it has a special place in my heart. It was a hand-me-down from an aunt at the time when the C64 was the star of the show, and I only had 2 games for it. My only option was to learn how to program. It was so crude, that the thought of running something like Elite on it never even crossed my mind. I'm shocked someone actually went on and did that. Wow!

For building as a part of an overall product, I agree that the budget should trend towards zero, not away from it.

Privacy Badger, PiHole, UBlock, Ghostery, Facebook Container, and Canvas Blocker all work together on firefox to keep my computing so ad free that if it weren't for federated social media I wouldn't even know what movies are coming out.

I can count on 1 hand the number of pages that have failed because of this combo and every single one of them are guilty of using a JS plugin that requires Chrome in order to function for some dumb reason, and I keep a copy of chrome around for those specific websites.
> Leakage current is what heats up the chip

Leakage current is generally a rounding error for heat. In CMOS, the power that causes the most heat is the dynamic switching power which is lost to P = C * Vdd^2 * frequency

Which implies that for the fastest chips, most power is lost simply to running the clock which has both the highest frequency and largest capacitive load.

Where leakage current matters is for battery driven systems where you spend most of your time sleeping.

I strongly suggest that you go over this lecture "CMOS Power Consumption":

Discuss HN: Use run-time feedback to LLMs for agentic coding
I feel your pain. :-)

I've gone back and read through some of the committee reports when they were deliberating about this and... all I can say is, the more I understand about how composite color video really works - the more amazed I am that it works at all.

And to be fair. It's not like they didn't know there were better ways. There were lots of proposals to do YUV, RGB and other kinds of encoding but backward compatibility with B&W TVs and staying within a 6 Mhz channel were political mandates from on high.
btw: you can actually write, for example, the first function as just:

auto first(auto... params) { return params...[0]; }

Unless I'm missing something - but the post is showing off the fact that you can index into the list of types of the parameters, as well as the parameters themselves (in which case you need full template syntax).
