> It seems bad to fix a problem that can be addressed by self control.

I don't think it's only about self control. but it would probably be easier if the industry wasn't pushing junk food and sugary food on Americans. Look, other countries don't have this problem. Does it mean that self control vanishes within US borders?
A terminal prompt has worked great for me for years…
Front running customer purchases is not the concern. In the running of an index fund there’s many levers you can pull to create revenue streams that don’t show up on expense ratios.

Funny business can absolutely be pulled during rebalancing.

Another big one is securities lending income. Vanguard pays that out to investors which effectively creates negative expense ratios in certain funds. Index funds from other issuers don’t necessarily share that securities lending income with customers.
It looks funny.
Not sure about SK, but headwinds in Japan are showing a political both-siding after all the backstabbing and increasing Chinese population throughout all prefectures in Japan. Rightfully so, I would say.
Hmm I haven't tried any flight sims. I guess those would be much easier on the brain because they don't really simulate your head moving but an enclosure you're sitting in moving.

I also hear VR is great for Euro Truck Simulator. Which simulates the same thing, vehicle driving.

Maybe I'll even try one day, but the only PC option left on the market requires a Facebook (or Meta, I don't care how they call it so don't correct me) account doesn't it?
don't you think the problem of checking for correctness then becomes more insidious then? we now can generate hundreds of reports that look very professional on the surface. the usual things that would tip you off that this person was careless aren't there -- typos, poor sentence construction, missing references. just more noise to pick through for signal
It's an interesting approach. In similar cases has anyone got experience using a database more optimized on writes, e.g. Cassandra?
Assuming the tech is solid, I think that if you had developed this as a browser extension to work on top of Meet/Teams/etc, not only would your dev time have been much shorter and adoption much faster, but Google/Microsoft/etc would have probably bought you out in a blink of an eye.
Quick note that this is for Android and gets rid of the centralized gateway talking to the centralized Google service. Leaving only the centralized Google service. There's no decentralized way to get a push notification onto a Google/Android phone. Except perhaps if you hack something up using EAS.
> This is like suggesting that running applications in a Windows VM and running them under WINE isn't a big difference.

False equivalence. WINE reimplements windows libraries and higher level APIs to convert to Linux-native ASAP.

Waydroid/containers operate at a kernel level. The entire userspace is "virtualized".

> One might say "but it's the same OS!" - but it's only really a similar kernel, and even that is heavily customized and not at all the same as your laptop runs.

Exactly my point. The only difference is whether or not the kernel is shared, which is a very, very small fraction of the OS.
If you believed (like Eliezer has since about 2003) that AI research is a potent danger, you are not going to do anything to help AI researchers. You are for example, not going to publish any insights you may have that might advance the AI state of the art.

Your comment is like dismissing someone who is opposed to human cloning on the grounds that he hasn't published any papers that advance the enterprise of human cloning and hasn't worked in a cloning lab.
The problem when a creative niche gets flooded with low quality ripoffs is that people end up fed up with the entire genre.

Plus even that aside, people often crave change. No genre of music has ever remained entirely static. And all styles of music comes in and out of fashion.
I guess the things I don't like about Chat are the same things I don't like about pair (or team) programming. I've always thought of programming as a solitary activity. You visualize the data structures, algorithms, data paths, calling flow and stack, and so on, in your mind, with very high throughput "discussions" happening entirely in your brain. Your brain is high bandwidth, low latency. Effortlessly and instantly move things around and visualize them. Figure everything out. Finally, when it's correct, you send it to the slow output device (your fingers).

The minute you have to discuss those things with someone else, your bandwidth decreases by orders of magnitude and now you have to put words to these things and describe them, and physically type them in or vocalize them. Then your counterpart has to input them through his eyes and ears, process that, and re-output his thoughts to you. Slow, slow, slow, and prone to error and specificity problems as you translate technical concepts to English and back.

Chat as a UX interface is similarly slow and poorly specific. It has all the shortcomings of discussing your idea with a human and really no upside besides the dictionary-like recall.
Cool. Japan will then not work on US Navy ships because it's a national security threat. Good luck.
100% I started not passing then lost a ton of weight and found out I have alot of traditionally feminine interests. I went from being spat at in the street and almost attacked with no help, to people going out of their way to protect me from creepy men following me.

From my experience passing, how attractive you are, and your interests/hobbies are all attached to how well you a treated in the world right now.

Trans people call it passing privilege for a reason.
That's just a regurgitation of talking points, so I guess there's no conversation to be had here.
Show HN: Incorporating AI in engineering on-call workflows
Hello HN! My name is Max, and I’m a co-founder at Lynx (https://uselynx.ai). We’re building an AI-powered incident resolution platform to help engineers debug and resolve on-call issues faster. If you’ve ever been paged in the middle of the night and had to spend hours piecing together logs, metrics, and code, we’d love your feedback.

* The Problem *

On-call hasn’t kept pace with modern engineering. Even with great observability tools, diagnosing incidents is slow because:

- Systems are increasingly complex.

- Logs, dashboards, and documentation are scattered.

- Context often depends on tribal knowledge.

Lynx is designed to reduce the time and manual effort involved in incident resolution.

* How It Works *

Lynx runs on your servers and integrates seamlessly with your existing stack—including your codebase, infrastructure, logs, metrics, tracing, CI/CD, and cloud services.

- Direct Integration: Lynx connects via a local agent installed on your servers. This agent interfaces directly with your systems, enabling real-time command execution, log retrieval, status checks, and overall infrastructure interaction.

- Automatic Context Aggregation: Using our proprietary chain-of-thought execution process, Lynx automatically gathers and synthesizes context from across your stack—from logs and metrics to code insights and infrastructure status.

- Command Generation and Execution: With the aggregated context, Lynx generates targeted commands and executes them to resolve issues, streamlining debugging and remediation.

Our method delivers direct, actionable insights and interventions that accelerate incident resolution and overcomes many limitations of traditional diagnostic tools.

Check out our demo: https://youtu.be/atzdMyd7PG0?si=Ntvh6uhE3bwE5z7F

* Safety and Security *

We built Lynx with security in mind to ensure it only takes safe, controlled actions:

- Manual Command Approvals: You can require manual approval before any command is executed.

- Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Lynx supports RBAC for many integrations. You can grant specific permissions for investigative tasks while restricting access to sensitive operations or data.

- Optional On-Prem Hosting: Lynx can be deployed on-prem or in your private cloud, keeping all data and operations within your network.

* Looking for Feedback *

If your team deals with heavy on-call loads, we’d like to hear how you’re managing debugging today and any feedback on our approach.

- Try it out: https://www.uselynx.ai/getstarted

- Discuss: Reach out to founders@uselynx.ai

Your insights will help shape Lynx into a tool that truly addresses on-call pain points.
This is why AI should never give the final code review approval
Police are the state's manifestation of the monopoly on violence. Comparing that to civilian safety orgs makes no sense.
Ha. Hours in terms of video footage from multiple devices doesn’t explain the delayed response from the National Guard nor the DOD’s lying about it to Congress. They only had to delay long enough for them to get inside.
Does this means republicans did better propaganda than democrats?

My dad recalls playing Star Trek at Berkeley in the 70's, and they used a teletype because whatever computer lab he played it in didn't have any terminals with monitors yet.
Yeah, this article misses the mark.
The author definitely frames the issue of AI-generated music and stock music in Lofi Hip Hop through a Spotify-centric lens.
While they acknowledge that lofi originated and gained popularity outside of Spotify's control, particularly mentioning YouTube channels, it's BS to act like Spotify is the be-all and end-all of this (or any) genre.
Disclosure: I've never paid for a Spotify account.

The Truth: Lofi Hip Hop continues to flourish far beyond the profit-prioritized walls of Spotify's garden, a meticulously manicured space where genuine discovery is choked out by the weeds of algorithmic control.
True artistry is blossoming in the wilder, freer spaces online.

Also I really recommend Shlohmo & quickly quickly for some fresh Lofi.

You realize this is a decision the courts made. Harris agreed to follow the law. That's it. And you know what -- these same laws were on the books under all four years Trump was President.

I have a BS in neurobiology from 2005 and the one lesson I took away and has been reinforced over and over again for me is that we know very little about biology. For example, epigenetics was only just getting talked about when I graduated. We are still only scratching the surface.
I agree. I'd expand this by noting this doesn't only apply to borders, but the whole territory too. The article does note:

> [...] the trade in other chemicals involved in the manufacturing of fentanyl - some of which can have legitimate purposes - remain uncontrolled, as those involved in the trade find new ways to evade the law.

One has to imagine there's local manufacturing of fentanyl too, and one has to wonder the magnitude of it.
I think leaving disputes to the customer and only acting on legal orders is actually the most professional thing a provider can do.
This doesn't make any sense. Crises planning should be a fundamental function of the government. Just exceptin that every crises puts us close to being ruined and eventually one will, but it's fine because with no crises were doing ok, is unacceptable
Congrats, really cool idea! You should add the demo video to your website in addition to the interactive version.
That’s a valid opinion, but it’s still illegal not to have Congress change the law just as it’s illegal for hurricane survivors to help themselves to Walmart’s stock even if they really need food or clothing.
I agree with you.

Yesterday, I asked o3-mini to "optimize" a block of code. It produced very clean, functional TypeScript. However, because the code is reducing stock option chains, I then asked o3-mini to "optimize for speed." In the JavaScript world, this is usually done with for loops, and it even considered aspects like array memory allocation.

This shows that using the right qualifiers is important for getting the results you want. Today, I use both "optimize for developer experience" and "optimize for speed" when they are appropriate.

Although declarative code is just an abstraction, moving from imperative jQuery to declarative React was a major change in my coding experience. My work went from telling the system how to do something to simply telling it what to do. Of course, in React—especially at first—I had to explain how to do things, but only once to create a component. After that, I could just tell the system what to do. Now, I can simply declare the desired outcome, the what. It helps to understand how things work, but that level of detail is becoming less necessary.

I'd rather not have to trust a non-profit insurance company to keep a very small portion of my funds safe. This stuff should be in-code and immutable by any one individual or corporation.
What does this mean for folks like me who buy Vanguard ETFs through Robinhood.

The Vanguard UI / UX is absolutely terrible. Opening the website instantly transports me to 2002.

> I was a happy mercurial user until market forces and consulting needs made me, regrettably, use the inferior, more complex, more error-prone git.

Right? I even started with git, and had been somewhat comfortable with it for years. Then I joined a mercurial shop, and was more proficient with `hg` in 1 month than I had been with `git` after 5 years. It ruined me on git forever, I can't see it as anything other than a mess of wrong abstractions.

And unfortunately, these days I'm back using git with the rest of the world. Can't wait for the day when Jetbrains gets a good plugin for either `jj` or `sapling`, and I never have to google another git command again ...

Upgrading a GPU is not much of a hassle on an ordinary desktop, you open the case and plug it in, at worst you also need to upgrade the PSU. And you do that maybe once during the lifetime of the machine.

The real problem with the Apple approach though is that the very highest end SoC gives only the performance of a much cheaper midrange discrete chip and does not support all the software. Unified memory is nice, but that does not make up for it.
This is for the same reason they don't mix gold ETFs into their indexes. The point of their funds is to track companies that produce goods and services, not asserts and commodities.

It is not FOSS. The LLM industry has repurposed "open source" to mean "you can run the model yourself." They've released the model, but it does not meet the 'four freedoms' standard: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3/blob/main/LICENSE...
If you are incapable of identifying some of the insane positions that clearly lost them the 2024 election, I'm afraid you may be in a bubble and no amount of someone explaining it is going to help.
Lo-Fi hip hop already sounds AI generated. It’s music for bubble tea shops.
I totally agree. Standard ML set the stage for everyone to finally formally specify a full language, and only WebAssembly has carried the torch as far as I know (other than small research languages).
Lets toss in a minimum number of [digital] signatures.
When it comes to mirror sponsorships, we (IPinfo) offer IP location data sponsorship. We spoke with Alma Linux and they used our IP location data to route traffic for their mirror system: https://almalinux.org/blog/2024-08-07-mirrors-1-to-400/

At the moment, we operate 900 servers. We evaluated the idea of hosting mirrors on some of our servers, but our servers are not super powerful, and we have to pay for bandwidth. We use these servers in our production pipeline. Maintenance alone is a massive task, and hosting distro mirrors could be incredibly challenging. We are not at that scale yet.

We could provide IP location data sponsorship to popular distro mirror systems, which would make traffic routing and load distributions more effective.
Biden kicked off the biggest reindustrialization in our lifetime, and certain consumer protections were improving. Everything you want was blocked by repubs in Congress and trump appointed judges.

I like the idea, but one thing about Wikipedia is that with technical or granular topics it approaches things in a focused way. A specific molecular biology term's page isn't there to explain exactly how it fits into a larger biology topic. It makes random pages difficult to glean information from.

Even wikipedia articles I understand, more on computer topics, fall into the category of "the only people who understand this page are people who ... already understand it / don't need to read this".

Granted sometimes the social media context is kinda opaque, but usually "man fall down it funny" is pretty universal.
I've always heard the opposite. That biological sex is biological. Gender is socially constructed. That's the standard progressive position, although I'm sure you can find someone that says otherwise, or in casual usage conflates sex and gender.
> Specifically I’m thinking of AI image generation

I heavily disagree here, chat - or really text - is a horrible UI for image generation, unless you have almost zero idea of what you want to achieve and you don't really care about the final results.

Typing "make the bar a bit more like a fizzbuzz" in some textbox is awful UX compared to, say, clicking on the "bar" and selecting "fizzbuzz" or drag-and-dropping "fizzbuzz" on the "bar" or really anything that takes advantage of the fact we're interacting with a graphical environment to do work on graphics.

In fact it is a horrible UI for anything, except perhaps chatbots and tasks that have to do with text like grammar correction, altering writing styles, etc.

It is helpful for impressing people (especially people with money) though.
Yes, that’s why we have laws specifically banning insider trading and people in senior level positions are required to disclose their trading activities.
I’ve been working on something that provides document search for agents to call if they need the documents. Let me know if you are interested. It’s Open Source. For this many documents it will need some bucketing with semantic relationships, which I’ve been noodling on this last year. Still needs some tweaking for what you are doing, probably. Might get you further along if you are considering rolling your own…
> generally things are pretty rough

But better than everywhere else in the world. Virtually every other country did worse over the last 4 years than the US did.

They had 2 opportunities to bypass the Senate filibuster and pass far-reaching reforms. They chose to use those two opportunities to fight inflation and stabilize the economy.
So the runtime and libraies incorporated into native applications compiled by Oracle GraalVM is freely licensed? I tried to find that information but it's all a sea of legalese.
That's also why AGI as defined today is an interface problem. Imagine we've actually achieved it, and the interface is a chat prompt. It will be really hard to differentiate it with the current tools we have.

For writing, the canvas interface is much more effective because you rely less on copy and paste. For code, even with the ctrl+i method, it works but it's a pain to have to load all other files as reference every single time.
There seems to be a lot of anger around Spotify these days, often misplaced I reckon.

One of the biggest impediments to new artists making a living from recorded music is not the existence of Spotify and other streaming platforms, rather it's the massive and growing library of existing music, some of which is excellent.

But it's not impossible. My neighbor manages his music career himself. In 2024 he went from having 250,000 monthly Spotify listeners to 800,000. A few months ago he was able to give up his job and devote himself to music full time - he is getting decent streaming royalty checks.

If you complain that Spotify is contributing to a generic and bland listening experience then that is totally your own fault. Spotify will give you excellent and adventurous listening experiences, but you have to put in the time to 'train' your personal algorithms first, mainly by liking tracks, saving albums and playlists, and making playlists. Also: by paying attention to DJs/curators and researching dark corners of the music blogosphere, SoundCloud and Mixcloud.
No, I'm saying that consumption at subsistence levels and investment opportunities having to overcome a deflation hurdle is bad.

It is very good that the default thing to do with excess money is invest it.
As a source control expert and jj's number one fan [1], I would count being able to defer merge conflict resolution as a new capability, FWIW. In general I think jj's greater than the sum of its (very good) parts because of how its features work together to create a coherent and pleasant user experience.

Assuming P != NP we still don't have any proof that sha-2 etc can't be reversed (obviously there is a loss of data). It's implausible for now but someday I guarantee we will have the math that makes it trivial. It does not require P = NP.
So I just found this a few pages down at rank 129, where its ended up in only 3 hours, despite garnering 250 points in that time. That's abnormal for such a popular post. What gives?

The key to doing nearly nothing and getting rich is to start out rich and then invest.

The problem is not being 'owed' an income. The problem comes in when there end up being a class of people that can't make a living doing anything. When this class becomes too large bad things tend to happen. Be it government enabled purges or the masses breaking out guillotines or riots burning entire cities down.

I, an invested member in the continuation of society, would like a rather non-violent world to be in our future.
Since you know the people in question, do you have any ideas? I am honestly mystified myself and hopeful someone who knows the people in question can shed some light.

>Twitter has bleed so many advertisers strictly because it no longer offers a competitive ad platform

That's irrelevant to its technical operations which was the concern I addressed though.

Seems like a reality in my daily use. Any operational issues you're seeing that I don't?
What are you on about? I was trying to aid the discussion of "requirements to be an ATC" and you're pissed I don't give a fuck about what those requirements are? Don't have strong opinions on them? What the fuck?
