This is the can of worms introduced by doing event processing. As soon as you break the ties between request and response a billion questions come up. Asking what happens to the reservation in a request response scenario is just chuck an error at the user and ask them to try again.

As soon as you accept the user input and tell the user all is well before you have processed it you enter into these kinds of problems.

I know not every single thing we do can be done without this kind of async processing, but we should treat these scenarios more seriously.

It's not that it can't ever be good, it's that it will always be complicated.
Noting says you need to wait a full week between collecting garbage.

That’s the thing about changing how things work, you can change multiple things at the same time.
It looks like you are stuck in a corporate hell-hole where levels and blame games take higher priority than software or business development.

I personally don't enjoy environments where every management level shifts blame downwards and reorgs to find more scapegoats. I like environments where management wants to solve business problems because it helps the business, not as a CYA.

I would have coasted or quit. I find it impossible to not work a fair trade of my time and labor.
What if, even if so? The US is the country that was defeated in one day of fighting against Hezbollah, and that has invaded Canada... four times and lost? I forget.

I dare say that sane people at the Pentagon will stop war.
Then it's not a very useful framework, is it.

I tried Mastodon twice, and got banned in both occasions for saying things mildly critical of Israel and Ukraine.

Mastodon's biggest problem is the hyper-aggressive content moderation on the larger instances. Speaking about Mastodon's tech and UI, it's vastly superior to Bluesky. But they drive people away and then complain that people don't come.
No, probably not. I'll admit that I don't really know enough about unilateral trade agreements so as to understand the details of the USMCA or NAFTA, but it does seem like just reneging on a deal that the US (and specifically the same president) signed is going to lead to a lot of ill will from our allies.

I don't really know if countries have a "credit score", but it does seem like it's greatly going to erode away at foreign nations' trust of the USA if we aren't going to honor our trade deals.
My opinion of all non life critical products is: ask me don't second guess and definitely don't recommend.

Replying to myself: apparently it's not 100GB VRAM but more around 700GB VRAM that's needed to run DeepSeek R1. The gear needed to run that would cost something in the vincinity of 100K€ !
Yes, interpretation on the fly was never its intention. The intention was to provide interpreted languages with a way to implement fast compiled functions.
I meant to cover that in the last (parenthesized) sentence or my post. There will always be incentives in a broad sense, but it is not necessary to “incentivize” people via official productivity metrics. Academics used to figure out who to promote without creating a rush for everyone to publish as much as possible, or to maximize other gameable metrics. I don’t kid myself that there was ever a golden era of true academic meritocracy, but there really did used to be less of an obsession with silly metrics, and a greater exercise of individual judgment.
um, have you tried to export all your raw data from garmin? i have 15 years of logged data, and that dump does not include any fit/gpx/tcx files. it was 196 json files (228mb) which are just high-level summaries. using one of the hacky third-party export libraries, i was able to get the actual fit files (5708 files, 373mb). even that has missing files, empty files, and duplicates. very frustrating.

the lesson i learned is you can't just expect these exports from any online services to be complete or what you expect. i highly recommend going through an export of anything you depend on and see if it has what you expect.
Even in countries where the cost to sue is low (mine), it's at lest 20 hours, and low 4-figure at the very least (unless it's against an employer, in that case unions will foot the bill, or against the state/an elected official, an anti-corruption NGO will do it for you)
Could you expand on this point? Are climate refugees not expected, at least in the short term?
No the sun either is or isn't powered by nuclear fusion. There is no way of knowing whether that's the case until you can come up with a good explanation (hard to vary) everything before that is just guessing.

I can assure you Deutsch is no confused by anything in that matter and it's obvious you don't know who he is.

He is literally the guy who created quantum computation and IS a scientist.

And no that's not his argument against the the sun is revolve around the earth.

Recent times have made me ashamed of what this site has become. I'm with jaquesm- this is ridiculous.

Tons of new accounts <1mo throwing the discourse out with the bath water and no one stopping them.

HN has become the LA of websites. Y'all think everyone thinks like you and anyone who doesn't is just wrong. But when it all burns down and people are cheering you will be left wondering why.

It has devolved and only gotten worse. I feel those of us who are more center have slowly but surely gone AFK and now all thats left are the two extremes.

Comments flagged for absolutely no reason, the attacks- it even feels like dang has gone hands-off lately.

Since Trump's election I've seen nothing but rule-breaking everywhere, and it has become absolutely rampant.

I dont even come here for the comments anymore. yall can have the burning garbage heap this has become- it was a good run while it lasted.
could not disagree with that
This feels very similar to ophthalmologists who make their money pushing LASIK while refusing to get it done on themselves or their relatives. "This procedure is life-changing! But..."

Anyway, bring back in-person interviews! That's the only way to work around this Pandora's Box they themselves opened.
I didn't actually give it a goal of writing any particular length, but I do think that perhaps given my not-so-large online footprint, it may have felt "pressured" to generate content that simply isn't there.

It didn't pick up my HN comments, probably because my first and last name are not in my profile, though obviously that is my handle in a smooshed-together form.
Considering that, according to polling, most residents would rather live with rats than lose the parking spot per block required for proper bins, I’d say this is a huge accomplishment in the fight against rats… and car brain.
Are those outputs actually from the 671B model? The 671B model needs 8xH200 GPUs at minimum, which is $25/hr to rent. If you didn't pay that much, you were not running R1, but rather Qwen or LLaMA based distillations. We paid that much to rent a machine to run the full 671B model!
There already is.

That's missing the point--philosophy as a whole is not required for science. Invertebrates were adjusting their beliefs to observations (science) long before the first philosopher. I'm not confusing Bayesian models with Bayesian epistemology.

What this is at its essence is that science has allowed us to evolve, learn to kill lions and bears, create agriculture, build ships, cure diseases, travel to the moon, build AI, etc. And all this time while science has been empowering humans and saving lives, science has been under attack by philosophy. You have a scientist saying, "I observe that solar and lunar patterns are more consistent with the earth revolving around the sun" and a philosopher saying "ackchyually the bible says the sun revolves around the earth". When evidence (collected through scientific methods) for a hypothesis becomes overwhelming, the last refuge of ignorance is the philosopher saying, "ackchyually, you don't know that because nothing is truly knowable".

Epistemology is an attempt to understand how we know things, and Bayesian epistemology is probably the best description of how we know things based on science. It's a description, based on observation of how scientists practice science, of how science works.

So when philosophers come in and say Bayesian epistemology doesn't work, they're saying science doesn't work. It's yet another attack on science by philosophers.

And as I said in my other post, Popper's criticism of Bayesian epistemology is actually smart: he does understand what he's talking about, it just doesn't, ultimately, matter much, because the practice of science de facto works, in practice, even if the philosophical model says it doesn't. If all the nuance of Bayesian epistemology and Popper's ideas isn't captured, it's easy for it just to become a straw man argument for philosophers to say that science doesn't work. When it comes down to it, the way people talk about Popper and Bayesian epistemology is just a more sophisticated version of "ackchyually, you don't know that because nothing is truly knowable".

I'm not defending Bayesian epistemology, per se. I'm defending science, as it's practiced, because as I said, science is fucking important. Now, more than ever, in the era of anti-vaxxers and climate change denial, we desperately need people to believe in science.
Why use Linux? Everyone knows Windows, it only adds $30 to the cost, it’s easy to hire cheap Windows admins, etc.

I was saying that the operating system doesn’t matter between Windows and Macs where there is mainstream commercial software - especially Office365 - and people are already comfortable with it.

They don't need to be obscene - I think a good example would be non-sparring martial arts like Aikido or Tai Chi.

There isn't really an incentive to pay to watch top performers in the arts demonstrate technique beyond a handful of people wanting DVDs. There's zero stakes because you aren't competing against another person to be "the best". BUT, the physically can also be a turn off to many people. The joke I was taught was "to make a small fortune, start with a large one and open a dojo".

The martial art business model therefore is pretty small scale - kids classes, seminar fees, clothing and equipment sales, that's about it. But none of those things are really going to make you super wealthy because the non-competing aspect removes a lot of that business-oriented focus.

Comrade, such "me no frego" apathy is fascistic.
While not the case here, I feel like if some system really does have a lower error rate than humans on some task, then it'd be wrong to rule it out just because it can't be held accountable or punished. To me those are primarily means to reduce mistakes, opposed to requirements or ends onto themselves.
> How often is garbage day?

For general household trash, if you are eligible for DSNY collection, it's two times per week except for some holidays. Recycling and compost are once a week. If you contract to a private garbage collection company, it's whatever you specify in the contract.

> Also a bit wild to me that there's not like a communal dumpster.

Large apartment buildings of course do have trash chutes leading to a dumpster of some sort. But inside or outside smaller buildings, there is no space.

> Some population dense cities also do underground dumpsters, has that been floated?

There is an underground garbage handling system on Roosevelt Island. The idea of underground dumpsters in other parts of the city been floated, but it's impossible because there is too much density of existing underground infrastructure and much of this infrastructure is not mapped, making it impossible to plan an excavation project of such a scale. See e.g. https://dsny.cityofnewyork.us/wp-content/uploads/reports/fut... (pdf). (There are also interesting engineering questions of how underground dumpsters would work after heavy snowfall.)
> War with Canada would end up with nukes, French ones, blowing up in US.

The future is hard to predict but I will call this out. There is no reason why France risk itself to save Canada. Or the UK or Germany. No European power is going to nuke or threaten to nuke the US over a Canadian invasion.
Pro tip: ask about their previous experience and go deep there. It will be impossible for the AI to generate fake experience on a user, and very easy to catch for the interviewee
I suppose it's possible that Trump is playing 4D chess and somehow this is going to all work out great, but it sure doesn't seem that way.

Obviously I don't have access to Donald Trump's brain, so I am only able to judge things from how they are. How they are, at least right now, seems to indicate a completely economically illiterate person.
It doesn't bring respect when 90% of the third world already despise Americans.

You're just giving away resources to people that hate you.
Use NextDNS (https://nextdns.io) on your mobile phone as a Private DNS provider, and switch as many apps as allow it to be web apps, i.e. https://m.uber.com works just fine, and use Firefox on mobile and enable `about:config` via `chrome://geckoview/content/config.xhtml` , from there switch `beacon.enabled` to false.

Far less requires an actual app than most people imagine. It's the apps that leak so much.
"Occasional nonsense" doesn't sound great, but would be tolerable.

Problem is - LLMs pull answers from their behind, just like a lazy student on the exam. "Halucinations" is the word people use to describe this.

Those are extremely hard to spot - unless you happen to know the right answer already, at which point - why ask? And those are everywhere.

One example - recently there was quite a discussion about llm being able to understand (and answer) base16 (aka "hex") encoding on the fly, so I went on to try base64, gzipped base64, zstd-compressed base64, etc...

To my surprise, LLM got most of those encoding/compressions right, decoded/uncompressed the question, and answered it flawlessly.

But with few encodings, LLM detected base64 correctly, got compression algorithm correctly, and then... instead of decompressing, made up a completely different payload, and proceeded to answer that. Without any hint of anything sinister going.

We really need LLMs to reliably calculate and express confidence. Otherwise they will remain mere toys.
I know where you're coming from but there's something that's a bit off for me.

The way I think about it is if I take my daughter to the park and let her run around. I have my eye on her of course and she knows that I have my eye on her.

I'd be less comfortable if I told her to go the park and have fun but then without her knowing went over to the park and watched over her.

If she was annoyed by this I couldn't blame her. I wouldn't really want to get in a situation where I'm worried she'll find out I'm surreptitiously spying on her.

If on the other hand it's the first scenario where everything is in the open and she's not happy with that - she's running away where I can't keep an eye her - then we can talk about it and as the parent if worse comes worse I can just say, OK no more going to the park because we can't come to a place where we're both happy.

At the end of the day though I don't want to be going to the park with my daughter. I want her to go by herself and not get up into shenanigans. The whole thing I'm doing is to raise her in a way that when she's on her own she's aware of what's bad/dangerous/stupid and doesn't do that.

Monitoring her (especially without her knowledge ) is only tangentially related to the goal. And if I'm doing it on the sly how do I let her know? Say, daughter, if you were in a park and if some guy offered you candy, you'd say no, right? Further wouldn't that give away the game that I'd been spying on her?
> The current system lies on the market of ideas - ie if you publish rubbish a competitor lab will call you out.

Does not happen in practice. Unless you're driven by spite, fanaticism towards rigorousness, or just hate their guts there is zero incentive to call out someone's work. Note that very little of what is published is obvious nonsense. But a lot has issues like "these energy measurements are ten times lower than what I can get, how on earth did they get that?" Maybe they couldn't or maybe you misunderstood and need to be more careful when replicating? Are you going to spend months verifying that some measurements in a five-year-old paper are implausible or do you have better things to do?

The Young, Inexperienced Engineers Aiding a Tech Titan's Government Takeover
I have wrote an article a year ago about this.
https://medium.com/fever-engineering/on-hiring-great-talent-...

tbh it's very hard, in general, to assess someone skills in ~1 hour, with the diverse set of problems we face everyday and people/companies often focus too much on "previous relevant experience" (do you know this?) instead of thought process and depth of understanding (how much have you understood what you have done) which, to me, gives more insights on someone personality and attitude and ability to learn new things and becomes harder to cheat on (you can memorize "cracking the code interview" and be a hero on leetcode and still have no idea about how to write good software, take decisions or work in a team :)
there's an approach missed in that article lying between ordered dither and diffusion approaches - low discrepancy sequences

https://web.archive.org/web/20180830004622/https://extremele...

I'm not sure how much use that is for "modern" systems where blue noise textures are cheap enough but for dithering on retrocomputing devices I find it useful - smoother than random, less expensive than error diffusion.

That page is still up, I linked to an archive because right now for me I see some of the images get blocked at the source.
Not sure about the semi moral judgement being levied here against the bros but certainly feels like SV is about to have a moment here similar to the other fields the Chinese are brute forcing. Solar, EVs etc.

Show HN: Check Supply – Send Checks in the Mail
When I lived in SF, my landlord required rent payments via check. For a while I just used my bank's bill-pay. If you remember Simple, they eventually killed their bill pay feature, and then they later shutdown altogether. I didn't want to buy a checkbook, stamps, and envelopes just for this one bill.

That's why I built Checks Supply with a friend to make check sending as simple as sending cash on Venmo. With our app, you can fill out your check details and have your payment processing within minutes after downloading.

Check writing is becoming a rarity, and many first-time senders find the process daunting. We hope Check Supply is a quick and convenient option for those moments you're puzzled why someone is asking you to pay by check.
This is 100% the difference.

That said I think the bar for telling people how to raise their kids is super super high.
Fincept Terminal is evolving into a powerful TUI-based financial platform with a sleek new look using the Textual library. The addition of features like global markets, ETFs, portfolio management, sentiment analysis, and a robo-advisor makes it a well-rounded tool for traders and investors. From a developer's perspective, integrating real-time data, GenAI-powered insights, and efficient API handling will be crucial for scalability and user experience. Excited to see how it shapes up!
Impressive! AI-driven market analysis and risk management could really change how we approach investments.
