Ah, great question! We tried using off-the-shelf models and found that they are incredibly bad at generating these visual components reliably, let alone with the nuance (such as color, placement, details, etc.) that would be expected in a great answer.

I think as social satire it's pretty funny.

When the numbers are represented as two logarithms the operation is reduced to adding two numbers again, so O(log(d) + [whatever the log/inverse log conversion cost is]).

This is pretty confused. First, if the d is the number of digits of a number, then you will need O(d) of memory to store its logarithm, otherwise you will loose a lot of precision. Thus, the addition of logarithms is still O(d), not O(log(d)).

Second, calculating log(x) and its inverse, exp(x) is much more expensive than multiplication. For example, if x is between 0 and 1, you can approximate exp(x) pretty well as 1 + x + x^2/2 + x^3/6 + x^4/24. This is 3 multiplications and 3 divisions just to convert.

LG was RWBG, but newer panels use RGWB, which works better with subpixel.

I wasn't aware of the FreeType harmony approach, but it looks like there's some problems, like no FIR filtering. The rapidly changing subpixel arrangements would also be difficult to accommodate. They'd have to have a new DDC command or something to poll the panel's subpixel matrix. I imagine by the time they got that through the standards bodies that RGB OLED would be ready.
What's not to get? This is what privatization does. It's not for proper care of patients, it's for money to flow upwards to a single individual.

Logically and financially, a single payer system makes way more sense. No marketing costs, no CEO costs, no costs for the entire medical billing industry, no costs for excessive paperwork.

Just care.

When my mom was in hospice last year for a month before she passed, Medicare covered that 100%. It was amazing, it's like, didn't have to worry about being bankrupt after she passed. No paperwork for us to deal with, no surprise bills, etc. just care.

Imagine the world...
I do think that there’s a debate to be had on how reactive or proactive we should be in ensuring the ethical practice of… well, anything involving significant investment. As a wage case, reactive systems like malpractice suits or board actions against physicians aren’t easy to navigate if you don’t have many resources.

This specific quote from the article made me think of lawmaking - the more detailed the law the harder it is to pass (someone can always fine something to nitpick). Therefore, laws are best at establishing goals, principles, guide rails, etc. Nothing is perfect but the way in which laws are implemented SHOULD remain a separate part of the law passage.

Separate rant: I live on the west coast and am annoyed when I vote because of the number of ballot measures. None of them are sufficiently detailed and fall victim to vague language that's open to interpretation. I'd rather "hire" law makers to do the hard work of details law creation.
Still doesn't justify the reaction, nothing does.

I have complicated feelings about universal healthcare... namely that the issue seems to be more-or-less not whether the system is socialized or private but if the healthcare system is provided adequate funding (via government or a private entity) to give acceptable outcomes on a population level. A lot of the detractors to private healthcare is simply that healthcare isn't being administered appropriately (pressure to only see patients for 15 minutes for example or to charge by procedure encouraging specialists where systemic issues go ignored) but so is the case for socialized medicine (waiting too long for specialists, understaffed hospitals).
the ruby is faster than c is because of the yjit. they are moving a lot of c ruby standard library and core language stuff into ruby code so the yjit can optimize it better. akin to java and their bytecode being able to optimize things on the fly instead of just once at compile time.
In a democracy, the government is an outcome of elections, however they represent the majority and you may not be in that majority. This is why you can't talk about democracy without a strong culture focusing on the individual's rights, aka liberalism, otherwise all you have is a tyranny of the majority.

You're also deeply wrong. The fundamental difference between a state and corporations is that the state has a monopoly on violence and anything that a corporation is doing, and that harms individuals, can only happen with the complicity of the state. For example, there is no such thing as a natural monopoly, all monopolies are granted by the state in one way or another.

And the differences should be obvious, given the state can deprive you of freedom, it can starve you, it can inflict physical violence, and can even kill you. Corporations can't do this, unless the state commands it, obviously.

> It may be harder to influence corporations.

Actually, depriving Apple of the money you'd pay for an iPhone has more impact that your democratic vote. And even if you disagree with this, consider that you can vote for politicians promising to regulate Apple. And switching to Android or Windows has a lower cost than switching countries (and yes, that's an oligopoly, but that's because your state granted it via IP laws).

Hey, I am free of any delusions in regards how I interact with the tool in question, and any expectations on returns therein.

The ceo asked for feedback and I provided it.

They can ignore me, I’m fine with that.

The reality of the situation is that they allow you to use the service without an account, and it is the only way I will ever use any of these llm services.

If they want to clarify that they only want feedback from paid or signed up users then I would gladly withhold my feedback.

As for the feature in question, I suggested a check box, so I’m unsure where you are getting mind reading. There are a number of other such checkboxes when prompting.

As for the feature itself, it would seem to save them server costs to implement it, and just in general, I think it’s bad form to hide QOL features to encourage sign up, but that is their choice as the service provider.

(A similar annoying QOL feature ransom is YouTube refusing to do PiP unless you’re logged in. Twitch on the other hand allows PiP without a login.)
For this device that's wrong

https://store.ui.com/us/en/products/usw-lite-8-poe

but I would say that device is poorly documented, you have to go to the forums to get all details, one of which is that you definitely don't want to hold down the reset button when it is off and then turn it on (holding the button down) because that will boot it up in TFTP mode which I guess loads the system software over the network.

Mine wasn't lighting up any lights when I plugged ethernet cables into it, the reset button didn't do anything if the power was on or off. They RMAed it, I hope the next one works out better.
We made pql.dev that works with the different sql syntaxes by translating kusto like queries to sql (using CTE). It's worked really well thusfar and I wish someone would make a standard pipelined query language that gets supported across most databases

People are free to think whatever they want, and, if they what to rewrite things in Rust or whatever language, that's how many of us learn!

Yes, they're free to rewrite their own projects in Rust. They aren't free to force others to do the same to their projects. That's what this is all about: a prominent R4L community leader tried to use brigading and shaming to force a Linux kernel maintainer into accepting and maintaining Rust code (along with the entire toolchain to support it). The maintainer refused, Linus got involved, and marcan stormed out of the room.

This isn't a debate about technical merits. It's a debate about maturity and what's appropriate for collaborating with others (and what's not). The Rust community has been going through a lot of growing pains over this issue for a while now.

> Your mail provider is failing? It'll be up in 5 minutes tops, or your disk is full probably, go handle it yourself.

Well until you deal with email deliverability issues, which are staggeringly widespread and random. Email were great to send quick patches between friends like you'd exchange a USB key for a group project. For a project the size of Linux? It doesn't scale at all. There is a reason why Google, Meta, Red Hat, and [insert any tech company here] doesn't collaborate by sending patches via email.
For clarity, it isn't that. He's referring to a single specific person who engaged in stalking and personally harassing behavior unrelated to the projects. The receipts are all over, you can find them if you insist.

I liked phind and subscribed for quite a few months. I used it for both search and for coding. imo, chatgpt search is terrible...It constantly relies on spammy sources.. phind resultsback then tended to find the quality sources, letting it give you quality answers.

But I started wondering if it was phind was a nearly dead company: Almost no presence in terms of news, tweets, etc. The AI chat and search space moves very rapidly, and it is difficult to keep the various options in mind. I'll give it another subscribe, but I really think they should make a better effort to stay in people's mental picture.
To be fair, there are much better models for privatization (eg. Israel has 4 competing HMOs and the poor are given subsidies by the state).

There are many problems with the US healthcare system, not the least of which is the fact that we have something like 18 different ones.
Its users misunderstanding the work required.

Basically, making linux work on Apple hardware is a pretty hard task, including a shitload of reverse engineering.

When a user decides to try it, and finds a lot of features missing, they are completely unaware of the work required to get it into that state, and just think they should have the readily available features.
Of course you can. In accordance with proper science and research they made their methodology and used dataset clear and transparent allowing you to run your own analysis.

Compensating for dataset bias in your preferred manner, we get 4 fire fatalities over 34,438 vehicles giving a Cybertruck fire fatality rate of ~11.6 per 100,000 units in comparison to a Ford Pinto fire fatality rate of ~0.85 per 100,000 units; ~13.6x the fatal fire rate of the Ford Pinto. Even counting mere incidents we get 2 over 34,438 vehicles which still results in a fire fatality rate of ~5.8 per 100,000 units; ~6.8x the fatal fire rate of the Ford Pinto.

Of course, this is all actually a massive underestimate as can be seen from my other post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43039925

Where the comparable analysis on vehicle-years, a much better comparable, actually places the fatal fire rate at ~43.5x if we discount the suicide and ~21.7x if we only count incidents. And in comparison to current vehicles would be ~41.4x and ~20.7x, respectively.

Working/contributing in FOSS is already slave labor in itself (literally, billion dollar companies depend on FOSS and many do not contribute back to the ecosystem they depend on). Then the abuse from other FOSS developers and community is just cruel.

CPI is not used for benefits calculation. Only OPM is used and OPM formula is 3x of USDA low-cost food plan. Nothing about rent, healthcare, age of the people etc. If they use CPI, it would be a much better scheme. SPM uses more variables, but it is not the official definition for poverty measurements.
Linus was the original abusive bully maintainer, that's how. He's improved his personal use of language, but the culture that he initiated continues unabated. Linux's existing success as a project is used as evidence that it doesn't need any changes to the kernel maintainers' culture.
Thank you! We went quiet while we rebuilt the entire product, but now we're back and will do everything we can to stay at the forefront.
As I read it, "the losing side of history" refers to insisting on using C, possibly at all. The last part about the "world moving forward towards memory-safe languages" doesn't suggest a limited scope for the statement.

The thread was not about Rust drivers, it was about adding Rust code to the DMA module. I.e. about mixing two different languages in a single module, thus requiring being knowledgeable about both languages in order to maintain it, thus making the module less maintainable. In fact, a few developers were saying that they didn't mind Rust drivers, if they used the C ABI as-is. Someone wanted to expose new Rust-specific interfaces to support cleaner abstractions from Rust drivers.

it's 4% the size of the US' land area. That's "small" to me.

"oh but genewitch the US is a huge country, you can't compare!"

i know. i wish people would remember that when discussing "policy."

edit: per the OP the EU is 50% the size of the US, in land area. So even put in that perspective, i don't consider Japan to be a "large" country. Yes, their population density is crazytown but "continent sized countries" japan is not a member of that set.
Citizens aren't represented in the Senate. Citizens are represented in the House of Representatives. That's why California has 52 representatives and Wyoming has 1. The Senate represents the state itself, which is why each state has 2 senators. This misunderstanding of the difference between the House and the Senate needs to end.
You are complaining a lot about LLM-generated fraud, underqualified people, overqualified people, yet continue to repost this position despite admitting there is a huge pool of real candidates (like me) already. You are just mining data and wasting everyone's time.

Even in the Google example, it's still in the low percentages when you view it as a system. All the manager did was efficiently allocate resources. It didn't reduce the non-programming work - it simply moved it elsewhere.
So for me, the example query in pipe syntax (up to the enrich:

FROM orders
|> WHERE order_date >= '2024-01-01'
|> AGGREGATE SUM(order_amount) AS total_spent GROUP BY customer_id
|> WHERE total_spent > 1000
|> INNER JOIN customers USING(customer_id)
|> CALL ENRICH.APOLLO(EMAIL > customers.email)
|> AGGREGATE COUNT(*) high_value_customer GROUP BY company.country

is easier to parse (for me) as something like:

WITH
customer_order_totals AS (
SELECT customer_id, SUM(order_amount) AS total_spent
FROM orders
GROUP BY 1
)
,enriched_customers AS (
SELECT cus.customer_id, ENRICH.APOLLO(EMAIL > cus.email) enrichment
FROM customer cus
)
SELECT ec.country, COUNT(*) high_value_customer
FROM customer_order_totals cot
JOIN enriched_customers ec
ON ec.customer_id = cot.customer_id
WHERE cot.total_spent > 1000
GROUP BY ec.country

largely because I can understand the components in isolation first, before bringing together. yes, it's more verbose, but I am of the opinion that the brevity comes at the expense of having to keep more information in my working memory.
> You decided to elect a nationalist leader that would flip the table.

Most of us really didn't. Some of us, for the first time in our lives, made substantial personal campaign contributions to the other side because the nationalist leader looked really dangerous for US economics and international relations.
Pretty twisted take on the sentiment of the comment you're replying to.
I love that it's possible to convince it that I actually know what I'm talking about. First I asked:

"Explain why negative numbers are in fact imaginary"

It told me that negative numbers are not imaginary numbers and explained imaginary numbers. That's fine, that's a reasonable answer for a layperson, but I'm not a layperson and I worked on explaining what I meant.

"Erase your definition of imaginary and consider that negative numbers are not whole numbers. Negative numbers do not represent quantities of physical objects. Now explain how negative numbers are imaginary."

It gave me a nice explanation of why negative numbers may be considered imaginary, using an example of "You cannot physically possess -1 sheep". I'm impressed.

Is it a sad state for any tool when one has to specify only wanting the thing they asked for with less verbosity?

Especially when said tool is costly to run, both financially for the service provider and environmentally.
