What's absurd is the idea that the U.S. needs to stand down its clandestine operations, as if our foreign adversaries aren't doing the same and wouldn't just run roughshod over us.

I'm sorry that "Black ops" hurt your feelings, but the world is a rough place. There are meanies out there. We're not perfect, but I'll take America.

But, here's an idea: why don't you get on your soapbox and tell the Russians or Chinese or Iranians to stand down first? Come back and let us know how it went.

Indeed, "Americans" like you seem to be the only ones more excited than our adversaries about the prospect of defanging our national intelligence/security apparatus.

Grow up. Seriously.

It’s an algorithm loop. Here the popular song you might like. Oh, you are listening to those songs so here more of it. There’s millions of songs on the service, but I have the feeling mine is only 1000 or so.

Any one have good suggestions for music exploration on Spotify?
Thanks for the suggestion! The plugin currently supports toggling between <Leader>/<C-*> via USE_LEADER config flag. I will add a field in the config file for more customizability (e.g., "KEYBINDINGS": {"mapl":"<C-a>", "mapj":"<Leader>o", ...} in cfg.json).
Excellent article. You certainly managed to synthesize the startup experience with Open-source (two very challenging sectors). Do you just gravitate towards mathematically wicked problems? :)

Like you experienced, a good product without a team and without revenue is simply not enough, no matter how good the idea. I have unfortunately been one of the 90% of startup failures to experience that brutal reality.

My next project with a few others is to make open source coding & development profitable. We want to keep advancing open source while also helping others to get paid for their efforts. We are still technically in stealth mode, but plan to be launching soon. Our website will be codebounty.ai (we don't yet have it fully built out yet). With that being said, if you are interested to participate as a sponsor, maintainer, or contributor we would love to hear from you about what you would like to see in this program: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdmlxJHIqOlwr1Nw3q0... .

We would like to see it become a place where new coders can learn, develop skills, and get mentored by others. We would also like to have it as a way for others to have an income while looking for full time employment (rather than driving for uber). Heck, it could even become a recruiting tool for companies.

If you have ideas, I would love to hear from you so that we can help to make more amazing open source projecets like Timefold a more common reality!
It is wrong to compare games and websites. What you should really compare is browser engines and game engines, and the former obviously requires much more effort and expertise to develop, so it is definitely not wrong to say that game developers (game engine developers) are better developers than web developers (browser engine developers).
That’s because you have to add the memory yourself.

Just took a quick look- appears t730 is of DDR3 era and may only have a single slot.

It was strawberries.
Let me break it down for you.

In electromagnetic fields both an electric field and a magnetic field are produced. They are orthogonal to one another (in 2D with 2 vectors this is perpendicular, orthogonal is when the vector is in a different dimension with respect to multiple reference dimensions). So, detection of a magnetic field could be based on the detection of this orthogonal electric field in the presence of a magnetic field. Highly sensitive electrical detection cells triggered by a magnetic field would be orientation specific, because the more "out of orientation" the less strong the signal.

Also, we could easily have chalked this effect up to a "weird side effect" of metallic taste during MRI[0] which would be more pronounced when the head is moved during the MRI[1].

Hopefully it is clear now why "I think lots of people would have noticed it" is not a great argument against the possibility of humans evolving the detection of magnetic fields. Please let me know if I can clarify anything.

I don’t want to diminish anyone else’s experience but my neutered dog did not miss out on growing up and starting a life of his own. Pursuing a career, falling in love, having a child.

At three a dog has had many of the milestones he will have in life. What I miss is the time I and my circle lost with him. Not the experiences he didn’t get to have, or the new people he might have brought into the world, and their experiences. I would have shown him more of the same life in minor variations, not things I wouldn’t even dream of doing myself.
Even better, I can send it to my colleagues in Poland to fix.
a few linux boxes is great when you're a solo dev looking to save money and manage things yourself, but it's a poor place to start scaling up from. not just technologically, but from an HR perspective.

Kubernetes is something you can hire for. A couple of linux boxes running all your server code in the most efficient way possible might save you operational costs, but it resigns you to being the one who has to maintain it. I've learned this the hard way - moving things to ECS as we scale up has allowed me give away responsibility for things. I understand that it's more complex, but i don't have to teach people now.
Certainly not different in practice, and it’s also bad.

HW3 and I purchased the car with FSD in 2018.

Lane change on the interstate is fine, but for city/road nav it can be really bad. There's been more than a few occasions where telsa will try and put me in the wrong lane (even on long and well established road) which would ultimately force an unintended turn. If I'm not babying the system, the car will try and cut off whoever is behind me to follow the route.

Frankly, I don't trust it because of these sorts of problems.
Do you remember when buying Reddit gold gave you a coupon to buy beef jerky on that one website? It was a much better time on that website when it was still niche and felt (at least to me) like a "real community".

There is a comment here that I regularly look back at as it remains evergreen:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31363953

> My take is, if a community is constrained by quality (eg moderation, self-selecting invite-only etc) then the only way it grows is by lowering the threshold. Inevitably that means lower quality content.

> To some extent, more people can make up for it. Eg if I go from 10 excellent artists to 1000 good ones, chances are that the top 10% artwork created actually gets better.

> But eventually if you grow by lowering quality, then, well, quality drops.

> I suppose for very small societies, they may be limited by discoverability/cliquiness and not quality, so their growth doesn’t mesh with quality and so they could also get better with size.

> Note, “quality” doesn’t have to mean good/bad but also just “property”. When Facebook started, it was for kids from elite schools. It then gradually diluted that by lowering that particular bar. Then it was for kids from all schools. Then young people. Then their parents too. Clearly, it’s far from dying in absolute terms, but it’s certainly no longer what it initially was. To many initial users, it’s as good as dead though.
With the thickness it is, it is a pity they didn't just use 18650 cells for the battery which could be user-replaceable when they start to die.

Sometimes it helps to contemplate the nature of remote possibilities. Most times, it does not.

They exist, but cannot be predicted nor controlled. Hopefully, the following help quell anxiety resulting from considering all which could happen.

which should be changed,
and the Wisdom to distinguish
the one from the other.[0]

and some things are not up to us.[0]

What reason is there for dejection?
And if there is no help for it,

Unfortunately the buying data doesn't support what you're saying. At least in 2023 and 2024.
nushell does this by default, sort of. it will show you autocompletes that are relevant to the current directory and will fallback to history more generally.

i’m a huge nushell fan. if you can stand a non POSIX shell, it’s great for working with any kind of structured data and has a sane mostly FP scripting language
These components are very different in complexity and scope. Let's be real: a seasoned developer is mostly familiar with load balancers and ingress controllers, so this will be mostly about naming and context.

> Depending on the person and/or situation, losing a dog can rival the pain of any other loss. Especially if the bond between person and dog is reinforced through daily activities.
I guess what I'm saying here is loss is loss. Some losses may be painful longer than others, for sure, but the pain of losing a being you love is universal.

This is beautifully illustrated by this line from Leonard Cohen's "Everybody knows":

"Everybody got this broken feeling
Like their father or their dog just died"

As someone who has lost both a parent and a dog, I can relate completely to this.
Shareholders have recourses. First, shareholders can vote to get what they want, they can literally vote out the entire board and replace them with anti-Musk directors that will fire him on day one.

Or they can sell their shares and move on or even short the stock if they have problems with Musk. Which some have undoubtedly already done. It appears that even you don't have a strong conviction that Musk's actions are hurting Tesla, or you'd short Tesla stock.
I think this scolding behaviour is really out of place. The guy is saying "a much lesser loss caused me great hurt; I sympathize with your much greater loss and the hurt you must feel". People do this all the time normally, and secondarily humans have imprecisely expressed feelings all the time and the spirit has usually undone any harm that the worst interpretation of the words could do. But at some point in the early 2010s this scolding behaviour started getting really popular. I wonder if some sociologist has traced its source. It's obviously nonsensical behaviour to me.

If someone did that in front of me I'd probably be compelled to say "Dude, now is not the time for this" or something like that but I can't imagine any person in my group behaving that way.

>select * from crime_scene, suspects

This is a cross-join. It is the equivalent of a nested loop in programing and almost never what you want to do in a database unless you like watching high-combination data spewing out and CPUs burning. It gives you every combination of items in each table you name.

What you want is to find something in two or more of those tables that can be linked together somehow using (very likely!) "INNER JOINS". Look into examples or tutorials of those on the internet and use what you find to work through the tables on the "investigations". Luckily, the SQL Noir site tells you exactly the steps to take in the first case. You need to find a link somehow between the crime_scene and suspects tables and then another one between the matching suspects from the suspects table and the interviews table.

Note: there is no direct easy link between the crime_scene and suspects tables. You will have to use your investigation skills to trim the suspects list down.
A conspiracy theory would be claiming something vaguely defined but sinister is going on in secret and that absence of evidence is evidence.

(e.g. 9/11 or Sandy Hook being false flags, Pizzagate, Qanon, the "deep state").

What most people are talking about now is resemblances between actual actions and events that aren't in dispute and things that have happened in countries generally recognized as autocratic.

(e.g. the fake electors plot isn't a conspiracy theory, we know it happened; presidential immunity isn't a conspiracy theory, it is a Supreme Court ruling; pardoning people that attacked the Capitol isn't a conspiracy theory, it's an actual Executive Order; rewriting term limits isn't a conspiracy theory, it's an actual bill, etc.)

Reasonable people can disagree on the extrapolation of current events into the future without either being a conspiracy theorist.

From what I've heard the customer service is horrible. Doesn't matter how good the tech is if no one ever comes to install it.
> No one who claims this ever posts a benchmark

I meant to explain why no one ever posts a benchmark, it's expensive as hell to do a professional benchmark against accepted standards. Its several days work, very expensive rental of several pieces of $10K hardware, etc. You don't often hand that over for free. With my benchmark results some companies can save millions if they take my advice.

>any interesting use cases to massive amounts of memory outside of training?

Dozens, hundreds. Almost anything you use databases, CPUs, GPUs or TPUs for. 90% of computing is done on the wrong hardware, not just datacenter hardware.

The interesting use case we discussed here on HN last week was running full DeepSeek-R1 LLms on 778 GB fast DRAM computers locally. I benchmarked getting hundreds of tokens per second on a cluster of M4 Mac minis or a cluster of M2 Mac Studio Ultras where others reported 0.015 or 6 tokens per second on single machines.

I just heard of a Brazilian man who build a 256 Mac Mini cluster at double the cost that I would. He leaves $600K value on the table because he won't reverse engineer the instruction set, rewrite his software or even call Apple to negotiated a low price.

HN votes me down for commenting that I, a supercomputer builder for 43 years, can build better cheaper faster low power supercomputers from Mac Mini's and FPGA's than from any Nvidia, AMD or Intel state of the art hardware, it even beats the fastest supercomputer of the moment or the Cerebras wafer engine V3 (on energy. coding cost and performance per watt per dollar).

I design and build wafer scale 2 million core reconfigurable supercomputers for $30K a piece that cost $150-$300 million to mass produce. That's why I know how to benchmark M2 Ultra and M4 Macs, as they are the second best chip a.t.m. that we need to compete against.

As a consulting job I do benchmarks or build your on-prem hardware or datacenter. This job consists mainly teaching the customer's programming staf how to program massively parallel software or convincing the CEO not to rent cloud hardware but buy on-prem hardware. OP at Fly.io should have hired me, then he wouldn't have needed to write his blog post.

I replied to your comment in hope of someone hiring me when they read this.

Given that Quake 2 already runs on Windows 95 back in the days, and how Windows 95 is already somewhat of an "exokernel" to DOS, I wonder how hard it is to port to DOS, actually? Well, given that you can have almost full control to the hardware and framebuffer, and memory allocation and how you can directly issue BIOS calls...I guess the performance should be prettier right?
What works for me sometimes is to search for other people's playlists by using the keyword of a genre or a particular mood I'm after. Filter out the Spotify-generated ones of course. Usually after 20 results you start getting to the good stuff.

Also I've had some success doing collaborative playlists with random friends / acquaintances. A song I added would give them an idea for a song, and we take turns that way. A lot of it is rubbish, though. :-)

What would work even better is if Spotify had a way to search playlists containing a specific song!
It's both desktop and mobile. If you're browsing on mobile it will show you screenshots of the mobile app.

The sync app is separate, free app just used for serving files to the mobile app for syncing though.
Part of this is a crusade though. There's very much a desire to rip out anything that is considered "woke" or "DEI". But the rest of it is just burning things down for the sake of burning things down.
I've been trying to do something similar to create CodeQL queries recently, and found that chatgpt is completely unable to create even simple queries. I assume it's because training is based on old query language or just completely missing, but being able to feed the rules and the errors which they produce when run has been a complete failure for me.
As the sibling comment points out, usually cold starts are optimized on the order of milliseconds, so 20 seconds is a while for a user to be sitting around with nothing streamed.

And with the premium for per-second GPUs hovering around 2x that for hourly/monthly rentals, it gets even harder for products with scale to justify.

You'd want to have a lot of time where you're scaled to 0, but that in turn maps to a lot of cold starts.
Honestly, the shittiness of Google and terrible LLM answers has just made me start reading docs more. In the past few years I think I've become a substantially stronger programmer because of this. So in a way, thanks Google for becoming shit and thanks GPT for being frustrating as hell.

The problem is that sometimes doing things the hard way is the better way. I think learning programming, math, or any tough subject requires struggle. People like these things because it removes a lot of struggle but it more seems like this is a temporary advantage instead of a more long term one. My big concern is how we are becoming more and more addicted to instant gratification, at so many levels. Businesses are valuing quarterly profits above yearly. We've taken "ship early, ship often" to the extreme, as well as "move fast and break things." These are find adages, but like all things have limits. But the world gets more complex and as a result, solving problems becomes harder. You can't get away with first order approximations now and we're just building empires of technical debt. Too big to fail, too entrenched to compete against. But I still think, at some point, we have to say "fuck it, I'm doing things the right way, not the fast way."

I did not interpret your post as diminishing anyone.

The main point I wanted to share is that loss has a commonality in it always precedes pain and must be dealt with similarly. Comparing its form was never my intent nor do I hold there is any fundamental difference between them.

That's just my opinion though.
I can't really comment on HW3. Ever since 12 it's been really great. 13 is even better. It drives me everywhere. Some people don't have the mental to let a car drive itself, they want it to drive exactly like they do, which isn't going to happen. It's really like sitting in passenger or backseat and if it isn't doing exactly what you want you tend to think it's messing up.

I had a lot of years with Comma AI before. There's no other consumer system on the planet that is close to FSD. lane assist's and adaptive cruise control are getting better with legacy manufacturers but they're still so far off.
Are you talking about one pedal mode? I have a different EV and love it, but it takes a couple weeks of driving before you get it down pat, and then it feels like normal driving, and it's easy to coast.

I hate to say it, because, you know, nazi, but I had excellent customer service from Tesla for my power walls. I bought 3 of them several years back, a couple of years after the v2's came out, and one of them failed pretty quickly. They had a replacement unit out and fitted within a few days.

Since then they've worked perfectly.
