I'm building this for myself because I want it too. I recommend you do the same, because it's been really fun to build and teaches you a lot about what LLMs can and cannot do well.

I plan to share it on Github, but waiting for my employer's internal review process to let me open source it as my own project, since they can legally claim all IP developed by me while employed there.
My wife was diagnosed of Parkinson’s Disease at age 61. She had severe calf pain, muscle pain, tremors, slurred speech, frequent falls, loss of balance, difficulty in getting up from sitting position. She was put on Senemet for 6 months and then Siferol was introduced and replaced the Senemet. During this time span she was also diagnosed with dementia. She started having hallucinations and lost touch with reality. Last year, our family doctor started her on Uine Health Centre PD-5 formula, 2 months into treatment she improved dramatically. At the end of the full treatment course, the disease is totally under control. No case of dementia, hallucination, weakness, muscle pain or tremors. My wife is strong again and has gone on with her daily activities as I share this experience. I’m surprised a lot of PWP haven’t heard of PD-5 formula. we got the treatment from uinehealthcentre. com on google

I’m curious to hear a bit more about your rationale for this. Is it because trust is otherwise hard to establish between you and the candidate? Is it like “if we can’t see the candidate’s code then we have no evidence they can code”?

Good ol' "U R MR GAY" strikes again.
The absolute numbers are awe inspiring, but the paper actually only adjusted the previous best estimate by about an order of magnitude. It's cool to see incremental scientific improvements getting some spotlight!
> Those quotes say nothing and are pure conjecture.

Apparently not: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/02/world/us-tariffs-canada-c...:

> When Mr. Trump imposed tariffs on China during his first term in the White House, some studies found that part of the cost was passed on to American consumers. Suppliers in China also cut their prices in many cases to offset part of the cost of the tariffs. [emphasis mine]

> I will tell you exactly who will pay the increase (and then some, because there's always juice on top of juice): we will; you and I, and every person and family we know. That's who.

It's worth noting that you're basically quoting a line of political attack. From the same article I linked above:

> Democrats spent the weekend hammering the message that Mr. Trump was responsible for making life in America more expensive.

> “In one reckless move,” said Representative Gabe Vasquez, Democrat of New Mexico, “the president just raised the price you pay for gas, the truck you drive to work, a computer for your small business and everything at the grocery store, from avocados to tequila.”

Underneath all that noise, I'm sure things are far less simple than any side's attacks claim. Unfortunately, all almost anyone hears on any issue are political attacks, which are blasted from the rooftops.
I understand why people read Dan Brown.

Why do people read Murakami? That guy writes disgusting drivel.
Title makes it sound like she was in an Neuralink office and physically shoved out the door. The non-clickbait version is that she is in the same agency that started a Neuralink investigation (due to perceive conflicts of interest in its board) and her dismissal has zero substantive connection to neuralink or elon.
who do you find to take the long position opposite you? Your mum?
> How is that correction mechanism supposed to work though? Do you mean the peer review process?

No. I meant somebody else publishes the opposite.

One of the things you learn if you are a world expert in a tiny area ( PhD student ) is that half the papers published in your area are wrong/misleading in someway ( not necessarily knowingly - just they might not know some niche problem with the experimental technique they used ).

I agree peer review is far from perfect, and there is problem in that a paper being wrong is still a paper in your publication stats, but in the end you'd hope the truth will out.

People got all excited about cold fusion - then cold reality set in - I don't think the initial excitement about it was a bad thing - sometimes it takes other people to help you understand how you've fooled yourself.
That's exactly what this model is! The @Step decorator is for external state modifications. Then @Workflows orchestrate steps. The example shows the simplest possible external state modification--a print to the terminal.

Steps can be tried multiple times (if a failure happens mid-step) but never re-execute once complete. Since idempotency can't be added externally, that's the strongest possible guarantee any orchestration system can give you (and if your step is performing an idempotent operation, which is the safest thing, you can use the workflow ID as an idempotency key).

I forgot to say, the aim is usually to integrate it into a bigger project that I'm writing by myself. The working code is usually for interfacing to libraries I didn't write - I could spend a year reading every line of code for a given library and understanding everything it does, and then realise it doesn't do what I want. The working code is to see what it can do first, or to kick it closer to what I want - only when I know it can do it will I spend the time to fully understand what's going on. Otherwise a hundred lifetimes wouldn't be enough to go through the amount freely available crapware out there.
One of the big WTF moments I've had in the "web vs. device" Ad-related privacy journey was realizing that even if you create an "anonymous" account on an app in your phone, your device ID is shared and can be recognized by Ad vendors.

Example:

- You're using a known account on a Mac to search for a shelf to buy

- You're using a anonymous account to browse Reddit on an iPhone

And the shelf Ad pops up on the Reddit feed. Yep, as long as you logged in with a known account on both devices, they're now linked by device id. An all you do on those devices (regardless of the account) can be traced back to you.

I read about this in "Chaos Monkeys" but it never really hit me until this experience.
> The EU right now is telling Meta that it is illegal to give users the option of either ads based on behavior on the platform or charging a monthly subscription fee.

And? With GDPR the EU decided that private data cannot be used as a form of payment. It can only be voluntarily given. Similarly to using ones body. You can fuck whoever you want and you can give your organs if you so choose but no business is allowed to be payed in sex or organs.
This is to be expected as a source of their data, no?
Not sure how mainstream furries are. Sure, they have conventions and whatnot but do you expect to see one on a box of cereal anytime soon? Probably not.

You mean the traditional Month of Partying? Nah, that's been thoroughly commercialized already.
I'm not sure how adding a subscription is 'the same thing'. Postman forced all of your data to be stored in their cloud, and held it hostage for $1,000/user/year.

Bruno seems to charge somewhere between 70-130 dollars user/year for unlocking GUI features. The same features are all accessible via the terminal or IDE.

The daily I'm not taking part anymore at work started today at 9:30 as always, and has currently (11:50) people excusing themselves because they have other meetings...

We need a revolution on exposing bad managers and making sure they lose their jobs. For every kind of manager. But that situation isn't very far from normal.
Not sure if this was posted as humour, but I don't feel that way. In today's world, where I certainly would consider taking the blue pill, I'm having a blast with LLMs!

It has helped me learn stuff incredibly faster. Especially I find them useful for filling the gaps of knowledge and exploring new topics in my own way and language, without needing to wait an answer from a human (that could also be wrong).

Why does it feel, that "we are entirely inside the bubble" for you?

In most enterprise jobs aside from specialized, vertical markets, the operating system doesn’t matter. So why not use Windows PCs? They are cheaper, companies like Dell have great enterprise support contracts, IT installed malware (ie MDM software) is mature, etc.

In tech oriented companies, employees are usually given a choice between Windows or Macs.
It has shaken up my core beliefs and assumptions.

Reading these have validated some of my points.

I don't want to mislead anyone. Neither do I want to cause trouble to myself or to anyone else. Things can be troubling.

I am open to posting it but I would like to discuss it with someone on HN before doing so.
The features you pay for are just GUI features. All of the things are still accessible in the terminal or IDE.
"Teach me something" is how the test prep companies would interview instructors. Same idea—have a candidate explain a topic they are totally comfortable with—but they were more focused how engaging the lesson was, how the candidate handled questions they didn't expect, etc. moreso than I expect you would if you use this in a IC coding interview. It's a neat idea though, I can imagine lots of different ways it would be handy.
It is deeply ingrained in lots of workforce in lots of jobs. Many people just don't care about doing a good job, especially in state owned institutions, and on the other hand being actually good at your job is not valued or recognized appropriately by bad middle management in tons of places, so people lose motivation to be better than orienting themselves at the average. Many want to do the bare minimum, understandably, when recognition for more does not exist.
When I saw new to llms, I used Bing ai in a fun way. So when I was writing my report, it was sometimes hard to find discussions or material about a certain topic.

What I did was to ask Bing ai about that topic and it returned information aswell as sources to where it found those, so I picked up all those links and researched them myself.

Bing ai was a great resource for finding relevant links, this was until I found out about perplexity, my life haven't been the same since.
Sorry, I guess you were not being sarcastic. LLM's are good at vocabulary and syntax, but not good at content (because nothing in their architecture is designed to do that). Since the kind of article we're looking for would be fine if written exactly the same, but it was true, an LLM is not a good match for finding this.

Now there might be algorithms that could, for example automatically checking for photo doctoring or reuse of previously used images that are not attributed. These sorts of things would also not be an LLM's forte.

My apologies again, it's just that LLMs are the subject of so much hype nowadays that I genuinely thought you might be saying this in jest.
Is USAID mainly serving US interests? (2013)
The fentanyl excuse is technically necessary because the US President only has emergency powers in matters of commerce. He would emphasize decreasingly-urgent excuses without fentanyl, each looking expedient and cynical. Failing to persuade Congress to rubber-stamp this might expose Trump as weak.
Yes but it only works if the field has consistently high standards and the team violating them is an outlier. In a surprisingly large number of cases replications are hard/impossible because the entire field has adopted non-replicable techniques.
I believe "merely aesthetic objects" in this case should be interpreted as "dead objects". The very word "artifact" signifies the distinction.

These objects were once alive - they were parts of active interactions. Now they are dead and ossified.

This is the difference between your album CDs when you actually listened to them, and then when you put them on a display case on the wall.
This plus immutable data is what makes doing web apps in Elixir using Phoenix so nice. There is a (demi-)god "%Conn" structure passed as the first parameter that middleware and controller actions can update (by returning a new struct). The %Conn structure is then used in the final step of the request cycle to return data for the request.

For non-web work genservers in Elixir have immutable state that is passed to every handler. This is "local" global state and since genservers guarantee ordering of requests via the mailbox handlers can update state also by returning a new state value and you never have race conditions.
I think a better question is "what is the value of thought?" when it came to conclusions such as yours: "I should be rude to this poster because they disagree with me"
Is your comment about the US' tariffs or the Ontario's decision?
You overestimate the importance of being correct
Yes, that's totally fair. Usually, a step is a meaningful unit of work, such as a API call that performs an external state modification. Because each step is a fair chunk of work, and the overhead is just one write per step, this scales well in practice--as well as Postgres scales, up to 10K+ operations/second.

> ...abuse of @decorators in Python, which are side-effect pits of hell.

And just as I posted this, an articles shows up on the front page (https://www.dbos.dev/blog/what-is-lightweight-durable-execut...) claiming this:

> So how does this work? The key is in those decorators, DBOS.workflow() and DBOS.step(). They wrap your functions with the code that durably executes them. At a high level, they persist your program’s execution state–which workflows are currently executing and which steps they’ve completed–in a Postgres database.

Ouch! Those innocent looking lines of @DBOS.workflow or @DBOS.step make decorated functions actually connect to a Postgres database somewhere, and you can't be certain if you can test those functions without Postgres anymore. Ouch, ouch, ouch!

So, developers, please, remember the implicit vs explicit rule of thumb.
Not familiar with the Costa Rican legal system, but in US law you can lose your trademark if you don't actively protect it from infringement. They are legally obligated to be litigious.
It was a few months ago, but when X was banned in my country I tried Bluesky for a while. It took a lot of effort (adding blocklists, muting words and blocking individual accounts) to cleanse the timeline of k-pop and furry content. I am not interested in either type of content and didn't follow any such accounts, but still, the "Discover" feed kept showing that stuff to me. It was the strangest onboarding experience I've ever had in social media.
I’m going to echo oneeyedpigeon - you changed my opinion completely. Minutes ago, I did not see a thing wrong with what Anthropic was doing. Reading your words completely flipped that.

This is exceptional writing and I appreciate your insight. Thanks for proving me wrong and giving me the chance to get closer to being right.
The irony is: AI is a silly thing to regulate. Why not regulate any software system that gives a bad outcome? Who cares about the implementation?

The only reason seems to be so the EU can claim to be a leader in AI regulation; a dubious accolade at best.
Yeah pretty much, they either go silent for 2-3 minutes or leave the call and claim their internet has cut out and need to reschedule.

Just one time someone got mad and yelled at the interviewer about nothing specific, just stuff like I’m not who you are looking for, you will never find anybody to hire.
In addition, the idea here is one of commodification of culture. An idol of religious significance and a spear used for fishing are the same kind of "stuff" from the point of view of a collector or someone visiting a museum. They can be traded, exchanged, which decontextualizes them from the non-capitalistic cultures in which they were created.
I'm a fellow audio dev and I have a hard time understanding who they even made MAD, they look very innocuous. Only thing I can see is they have one Bluesky post celebrating Independence day for Ukraine. That's it.

This is either a test shot, or some private grudge, and an obvious SWATting using YouTube automated systems. Someone tip off Google? This is beyond egregious. I started digging through their social media posts expecting they'd be some kind of noisy advocate, but nada. They seem totally innocuous and most of what they have to say, even in replies, is about their synth design work.

Even if I was missing something, I saw nothing TOS-violating or even within the same universe as that. Is this the new normal?
It is definitely a strategy for Apple to increase uptake of their non x.0 releases.
“Capital has the ability to subsume all critiques into itself. Even those who would critique capital end up reinforcing it instead.”

—Joyce Messier, Disco Elysium

Gibson is a concrete example. He fashions critiques of capitalism in a book, the book is distilled into the aesthetics of cyberpunk, and the cyberpunk aesthetic is repackaged and resold to us.
Interestingly, backpropagation is the natural way I'd describe this process, not reverse graph traversal.

Background difference I suppose.

> This must be what AI hype actually is. Complete incoherent language to explain a very straightforward concept.

True, a lot of papers overdo the jargon just for hype purposes. My favorite funniest example is this one from Google Research (and universities) (have linked the paper review video below)

https://youtu.be/Pl8BET_K1mc

See the YouTube chapter about "Multidiffusion" (around 38minutes)

They spent multiple paragraphs formulating an "optimisation problem" which when peeled down amounts to taking the mean, just to be able to superficially cite their own previous paper.

Quite the sorry state of things.
You keep ignoring the point. Show me how can I write a program in C# that works with a fixed size memory region, lets say 512KB. It should not do any dynamic memory allocation.

Here's a library that does this in C in case you are wondering: https://github.com/rxi/microui.
The datasheets for the early flash memories (SLC) were easily available and loudly proclaimed 100K or even 1M cycles of endurance and 10-20 years of retention. Now they're very difficult to obtain and are rated for only a few hundred cycles and a few months of retention. No wonder they're secretive about it.

This is what makes capitalism so insidious, it coöpts our very reality. It is an amazingly persistent mind virus.
What free market advocates fail to accept is that an unregulated monopoly position, whether it was arrived at "fairly" or "unfairly", includes Big Brother, bureaucracy and whatever other malpractice is profitable, every time. Because the choice of whether to pay a price for mutually beneficial provision of goods and services is gone through whatever mechanism is sustaining the monopoly. The benefits of a market disappear; Participation is no longer voluntary. Monopolies are the worst combination of traits typically associated with corporate and government organizations.

Introducing Automated AI Optimization
We noticed AgentsBase.ai triggers organic growth in google search keywords and models, so we added automated tracking for the AI models. The world's first ahrefs for AI models that automates generating content?
Every day it monitors your brand mentions across O1, perplexity, and Gemini so you can track how agents are growing your brand in the next generation of answers. This loop gives agents more signals to iterate better content.
AgentsBase downloads and transcribes all of your videos extract+analyze unstructured demographic data no marketing team on the planet currently tracks, just like the models that will soon be in everyone's pocket for nearly free.
You mean the ones banned by most social media, hard to find on google and even harder to find in real-life?
I’m not so sure about that part either, although ethnographic museums certainly have a history of, well, not being exactly respectful – or factually accurate – of the cultures they exhibit. Plus, of course, the BM is not a great example of capitalism, being free of charge to visit! I just included the quote because I found it while googling what Joyce’s exact phrasing in DE is and thought it gave interesting context.
Thanks! DBOS is simpler not because it ignores complexity, but because it uses Postgres to deal with complexity. And Postgres is a very powerful tool for building reliable systems!
