Hadn’t had much luck with o3. One thing that came to my mind with these test time compute models is that they have a tendency to “overthink” and “overcomplicate” things this is just a feeling for now but has anyone done some study on this? E.g. potentially degrading performance in simpler questions for these types of models?
For data-oriented style you can use records, tuples and structs.

You can import all methods from a static class to use them as free-floating functions.

C# started as OO so older codebases are OOP heavy.
Submodules bit me more than once, because they break the assumption that once you check the top level repository out everything is in the state you checked out.

I understand why nested repos isn't a straightforward problem to solve, but I feel this could be solved better, especially in the UI.
They need to be re-nationalized for a £1 and all the debts written off. The current owners and their investors can go to hell. No doubt it could be done with an act of parliament, but I doubt Starmer has the balls.

There’s a mix of both approaches. I suspect most are the latter at least for customer facing roles.
Often the event being photographed has the participants fully involved, they don't have time to think about photos. Hence the need for a professional. DIY has limits, people are single-threaded. You need to hire professionals for extra threads.

Often, the most despotic legal institutions have what are among the largest and most centralized legal structures for their time. One does not carry out a Soviet-style purge on little more sheer whim. It takes quite a bit of organization to achieve such carnage and displacement that soon follow.

> There ultimate in removed regulation is an apparatchik unhelpfully advising: "Just don't screw up"

What you posit as merely "unhelpful advise" is in practice an unpronounced threat: "Do it the way we expect or else". It isn't a removed regulation but an obscured one where the final interpretation rests with the apparatchik.

>The ultimate in simple taxes is serfdom

I never got the memo when black became white. The simplest tax paid is zero taxes. Serfdom renders individuals as property fixed to the land/estate they pay tithes/taxes to. They couldn't by an be further from each other.
Something strange that people, and myself, have observed in diving is that being submerged in water tend to turn off nausea and abdominal pain. The theory is a combination of mammalian diving reflex and pressure will inform the body to focus on respiration and blood flow, in favor of other lesser emergencies. With personal experience with malfunctioning digestive tract, I discussed this with a researcher and it was also something he had heard from other patients.

Obviously it doesn't fix the underlying issue, and it add some risk to the diving itself, but the temporary break from symptoms are something I value a lot.
This is true in theory. However, Python also supports a wishy-washy version of OO, and most people don’t write code in an object-oriented style.

Modern Python in startups uses loose types and fairly stateless functions. But that’s not the case in C#. Most C# code I’ve come across is extremely Java-like, and while some people find it appealing, I prefer the Go, Rust, and Zig way of coding.

Both strategies have their place. It’s just that in the startup space, OO has fallen out of grace, and no one I know is excited about using C# to solve a novel problem. Also, CTOs always complain about how hard it is to hire for OO languages these days.
There are at least two things here.

One, about the field itself. So far, I have been a know-it-all, and I dabbled in management too, besides that. This worked for me, because no matter how the field any my opportunities shifted, I always had a card up my sleeve. This is highly personal though.

Two, about managing angst. Whatever you experience now, you will in the future too. Circumstances won't matter at all, your brain will convert whatever it perceives around you, into these feelings that you generally experience. You can be at your highest high, and the lowest low, and you will always gravitate back towards these familiar feelings of yours. So, what you can do to have a nicer experience is to be a good partner yourself, and learn how to live with these specific feelings that you have.
Unless there’s another AI breakthrough, the real applications of AI are and will be things that it’s ok to get wrong 10% of the time, usually because prior approaches were wrong more than 10% of the time. This is fine for the Playskool world of entertainment communication, in which there’s no end goal except emotional stimulation, but the opposite of what’s needed in any real attempt to engage with the world, in which we already struggle to capture the complexity of reality.

You make it sound like shares in companies are anonymous objects like pieces of gold. But that is not the case. The data about who "owns" shares in US companies is stored digitally in the US.

Similar situation with the Dollar. That's why Russia can't just sell their Dollars to other countries.

I'm not saying there are crimes committed. But it looks like Europe is losing the ability to produce stuff of value. Because it is missing out on technology. And the US might not want to send stuff to Europe when Europe has nothing to send back.

Ask HN: I Built a WebAssembly-Powered Zod Alternative – 2.5x Faster!!
Hey HN,

I’ve been using Zod for TypeScript validation, but I kept running into performance bottlenecks in high-throughput applications. So I built DHI – a WebAssembly-powered validation library that offers a familiar Zod-like API while being significantly faster.

Why I Built This:

• Zod is great, but it slows down at scale, especially with large datasets.

• DHI uses WebAssembly to execute validations at near-native speeds.

• It’s TypeScript-first and async-friendly, with built-in support for batch validation.

• I love to build things and this was just a passion project that I did in a day

Benchmarks (for 1,000,000 validations):

Library | Time Taken (ms) | Validations per sec

DHI | 3010.11 | 332,214
Zod | 5679.42 | 176,074

Features:

• Familiar API inspired by Zod.

• WebAssembly-powered for ultra-fast validation.

• Supports batch validation for high-throughput processing.

• Minimal memory overhead.

• Supports all major TypeScript types.

Example Usage:

import { dhi } from ‘dhi’;

const UserSchema = await dhi.object({
name: dhi.string(),
age: dhi.number(),
email: dhi.string()
});

const result = UserSchema.validate({ name: “John”, age: 30, email: “john@example.com” });

console.log(result.success); // true or false

Would love your thoughts! Is this something you’d use in your projects? What’s been your biggest frustration with TypeScript validation?

There is also a live website to see the speed difference for yourself: https://dhi.trilok.ai
Glad it’s not just me who does this. :)
In the end the author expressed his frustration at the lack of input from security professionals, but the words he used were perhaps a little arrogant:

He said "to routinely make preventable mistakes because people with my exact skillset haven’t yet delivered easy-to-use, hard-to-misuse tooling".

I would suggest rephrasing this as a way to make it clear what skills he is referring to, something like "people who are senior security experts". Otherwise it might sound like he is implying that he is the only one who should audit everything, because who else would have the exact same experience that he has had all his life?
The subheader claims that they have done this without reducing wages.
For a moment I thought it was about a tech bro discovering diaries, but it’s about Dropbox Paper.
The other thing worth mentioning is that there are multiple formulations, and they're not all equal. Just to pick on Murata, the last character of their part number is a reeling code (something so boring it's often omitted or wildcarded), and then the three characters before that represent the specific dielectric material in use. (Or something like that. It's a private use field and I'm reverse engineering it here.) For the examples above, that's "E01", "A01", or "A88". Each of those will behave differently in SimSurfing, but all parts with the same dielectric code will have the same DC bias behavior. (At least, they will if they have the same size and value, etc. When those change too, behavior still follows the usual trends.)

Parts with different codes can have vastly different behavior under DC bias. You'll find that one of them is the clear winner in most cases. Unfortunately, Murata knows this too, and that one is invariably more expensive in distribution.

But at least you can specify it!

Other vendors do this too, but it's easiest to see with Murata's setup and tools.
Wow, just when I’d accepted MIPRO in DSPy was magic, here we are. Things continue apace.
Same here except I'm using Zed.
It wasn't clear as to whether this also included companies that allow you to work 'compressed hours' - ie a normal 37.5 hour week but in 4 days (start earlier, finish later), which is increasingly common.
Not only that, if you're referencing an element in a very large structure or array, the base address may be zero, but the actual access may be several pages past that.
The company I work for, Wonde, allows staff to choose the day. There's negotiation with the manager to ensure appropriate coverage across the week, and a fair bit of flexibility around swapping days around as and when necessary too.
I find that most LUA code sits between functional, imperative and OOP.
It's not the same. It's not a massive binary, but it's not tiny either.
> I would suggest rephrasing this as a way to make it clear what skills he is referring to, something like "people who are senior security experts".

Well, it needs to say exactly what it says, not a vague category like "senior security experts".

There are countless developers and security nerds who run circles around me. They can do everything I can do, and more.

A lot of the trappings that cause developers to make preventable mistakes is because my betters and I haven't delivered easy-to-use tools that solve their use cases perfectly, and I feel personally responsible for not being able to help more.

Not sure what's arrogant about that.
I'm curious if they've had any deeper examinations on their neck/spine.

As called out elsewhere migraines are a significant source of nausea and a wide range of things can trigger them. Spinal issues can wreck havoc across your nervous system and trigger an assortment of issues that can be hard to directly link to stuff like a herniated disc.
If it's been a long time I recommend taking another look. TBF you can tell it hasn't had the millions of dollars of investment that the Microsoft debuggers have, but still it's come a long way over the last 5-10 years.

e.g. it now has decent multi-process support.

I agree MI is kinda horrid, but no need for it these days, you can do everything via the Python API, and the modern equivalent is Debug Adapter Protocol which GDB claims to support now (although I haven't tried).

There a million frontends, including both Visual Studio (via ssh) and VSCode, if you like those.

The perfect developer tool does not exist, but I believe that if you're debugging native code on Linux more than a few times per year then you should really know how to drive GDB. It won't always be the best tool for the job, but it often will be.
Feel free to provide evidence that harassment is occuring, it sounds like people are stating how they'd like to be treated (clearly free speech), other people are disregarding it (again, free speech), and they're being told that's rude (still free speech). None of that is harassment.

If someone sets expectations or boundaries at work, and you disregard them, sure, you could be fired. Working at a particular place is a privilege, not a right. Professionalism necessitates going along to get along with people who may be from different cultures or subcultures, who may have different expectations of how they should be treated, different political views or values, who you may find annoying or frustrating. That's life.

> Sure, if that helps with your butthurt.

I think you should take a step back and reflect on this remark. You are the one who came to this conversation with complaints.
For the last 10 years I have used the same vim config it is about 30 lines.

Self-reported happiness (or life satisfaction) is only a part of the ranking. The objective measures correlate strongly with the subjective ones (with some outliers like Israel). But as any metric, it's of course not perfect.

"Happiness is measured using six categories including GDP per capita, social support, and healthy life expectancy, among others."
Most, including the company I work for, operate on a 100/100/80 model: 100% pay for 100% performance/output in 80% of the time. This means that, for example, meetings are generally short, on time, and straight into the topic. For me personally, and from what I've heard from colleagues, you get more done when you don't have the same mid-week or end-of-week slump.
There's a much more straightforward tricks that work to bypass.

You just need to get it working in a language that it's not censored in.

splat is the official name in Ruby, spread comes from the similar JS construct (obviously, lots of people using Ruby also use JS, so its natural for terminology from one context to sometimes get applied to similar concepts in the other even where it isn’t official.)
Yeah, fine-tuning is different from pretraining

Just read the abstract so far. Sounds amazing, but just for the sake of understanding, what would be the inputs and outputs of such a system? If the prompt is generated, how do you tell the system what you'd like to have? And what is the ground truth that is trained against? Examples of the desired text?
I’m starting to believe the obfuscation and lack of information regarding “four days but actually working longer” or “four days with reduced hours” models is deliberate.
Right now, more the former, but it depends.

I'm an iOS dev. The better models exceed what I can learn about the operating system I develop for, in the same way that a trig function on a calculator exceeds the precision a human can memorise. (So do search engines, but they can't respond to natural language queries combined several topics at once).

Because LLMs perform like juniors (sychophantic juniors with Alzheimer's), if you use them blindly without knowing the domain, that's still occasionally like picking random trig buttons because you don't know which of [sin, cos, tan] you wanted.
> I wish I could say the same for years of projects written in Rust and Haskell

Back in 2021 I ported a small C program I wrote into Rust as part of learning the language. Since I was inexperienced even though it's small and Unix specific I added about two dozen dependencies including transitively a Windows API dependency via somebody's terminal lib.

So, that's a 2018 Edition Rust program, untouched since November 2021.

The binary of course still runs just the same as ever, I've used it a few times over the intervening years - but we'll take that as read. Lets go into the source code and build it again today, how much work will it be to get Rust source code working years later with a brand new Rust toolchain and different OS?

It just works. Not like "Well, I had to run some updates and modernisations" it just works.
very thanks, this will be useful to simplify my debugging!

Incompetent VPs have a way of sticking around at Google and rising up into higher positions of power even if employee surveys show managers and ICs underneath have no confidence in them, at least based on the bad VPs I had to deal with while I was there (in a different org).

Neovim is 100% backwards compatible with vim, if you miss your old config it still works, OPs problem has zero to do with neovim. You could also just keep using vim.
> I call men "mister" out of respect. My other word for people who don't merit respect is "asshole".

I believe this to be the actual root of the issue. You have decided some people aren't worthy of your respect (I presume because you feel they are your adversaries in a political struggle). Anything they ask of you from that point, you take issue with and blow out of proportion. They aren't people to you, they're "assholes."

You don't have to like people to respect them. You don't have to agree with them either.

> I don't have to try to overcome my 50 years of habit in how English is spoken.

Language changes. Culture changes. They don't change because people are "schizophrenic," they change because they're part of an ongoing conversation.

You don't have to like it. You don't have to change. But if you choose to resist it, you'll come off as out of touch and you'll upset or offend people. And consequently they may not want to work with you or spend time with you. You've every right to do that. But those are the consequences. And they always have been. You can accept those consequences or you can make room for the way the world has evolved, but those are your options; time waits for nobody.

Take a step back and look at how patronizing your language is. Comparing people to children. Implying they're delusional. Insisting you've got it right and refusing to budge. Doesn't that sound like the way older people have always patronized younger people? Don't you remember being younger and people talking that way about your generation?

I don't see how your numbers (for which a source and some additional context would be appreciated) support your original point ("solar in Germany makes no sense").

As an actual counterpoint, please consider this recent study by Fraunhofer ISE [1], which provides average generation costs for various types of power plants. Even with current battery prices, large scale PV plants supported by battery systems are significantly cheaper than coal, gas and nuclear plants -- and this advantage is expected to increase with falling prices of both battery storage and PV systems.

Possible. I know little more than what I can google about .NETs history; I wasn't around for it.

What I can say (MS hesitance aside) is that it is excellent for web applications where the ability to sustainably bear complexity of business logic is critical to business success.

I only really saw that concern in the java ecosystem, and I am very happy .NET exists, if for no other reason than to force java to get better. Many ancillary tools (source generators, xml code generation, integration of compliance metrics) that are only ever found in java are already present and even better in the .NET world.
