C already felt outdated in 1993, that is why since then I rather use C++ than C, when the choice boils down to these two languages.

Exception being when there is really no way around C, like UNIX clones related development, or some kinds of embedded development.

Even when using TypeScript, we sometimes have to occasionally get dirty with JavaScript. :)
Results don't matter as much as PR, this is time when this is unfortunately valid. Just look at US elections.

Measurable results affect rational aspects of our minds, PR attempts to attacks directly emotions bypassing the former, ie to induce impulsive shopping.

Also, what actual security? Apple is as vulnerable as cheap chinese phones against state actors using 0days. Apple devices are still being stolen for spare parts, Apple doesnt secure each component AFAIK and thieves know this (very recent case with friend of a friend, they even knew how to bypass that built in airtag tracking). I haven't seen anything but very well crafted PR statements on this topic. All money-accessing apps on absolutely any phone are a security risk.

But folks love convenience above all.
I've been trying to use genetic algorithms to evolve voice style tensors for Kokoro-82M TTS. My current main barrier is that the scoring function is powered by resemblyzer and whatever it is using to compare the audio data has limitations. The generated tensors over fit and make garbage sounding audio that scores high, but doesn't sound like voice. Considering alternate methods of scoring.

Even though it indeed doesn't look great, I think it's still too early to call US like that. Trump is behaving not unlike Biden insofar that his mind has clearly degraded over the last few years significantly.

It's up to the people supporting him and about who talks to him just before he issues actual orders. Recently, it has been people like Putin which is reflected on his output. Others wilö talk to him too.

Thats fascinating. Wolf Hall has a lot about Thomas Moore in it ... I should note Wolf Hall is essentially fiction but largely based on things that did happen - I guess you can view it as "lets imagine how the story of Henry VIII would work if much maligned Thomas Cromwell was actually the good guy"

... anyway in Wolf Hall, the character of Thomas Moore as written is largely consistent with what the OP is finding in that old manuscript - someone quite keen on their own cleverness and relatively comfortable with interrogations and burning people at the stake. In Wolf Hall his death is stubborn and needless, and in defiance of the wishes of his wife and daughter. At first I took those parts of Wolf Hall as an exercise in "lets see if its possible to invert the plot of A Man For All Seasons". But then this document "A dialoge concerning heresyes" seems to actually back up the Wolf Hall picture of Moore.
Funny how even the demo on their website has the annoying "rate this app" popup.
Torrents are split into pieces, each of which has a hash that allows it to be validated independently.

However, these pieces can themselves be large, so it is often recommended to split them into smaller chunks that are sent one at a time. You cannot validate a chunk independently, and if you assemble a piece from chunks from multiple origins, you can’t immediately tell which origin is bad.

You need to explicitly handle this case, like the sibling comment mentioned by isolating peers who may have sent bad data and forcing validation.
To say that the greens are not involved in the environmental decisions, especially the National Hydrogen Strategy, would be very false. the National Hydrogen Strategy explicitly calls out natural gas as a central role, for which was the basis when Germany advocated to label natural gas as a sustainable investment.

We can run around in circles looking for political disagreements within the coalition, but this is the German environmental policy for which the greens support and helped creating. Invest into (and subsidize) renewables to create cheap clean energy when the weather is optimal, and invest into (and subsidize) natural gas to create cheap grid stability for when the weather is suboptimal. When the technology is there, then shift towards green hydrogen. The strategy has been exceptional consistent and operated for at least 2 decades, with the result being exactly what the strategy planned. Increased use of renewables in both output and subsidizes, increased subsidizes in fossil fuels, and reduced use of nuclear power and coal. The only thing that did not go as plan was Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the natural gas pipeline to Russia that then got blown up.

How is it that America and Canada are both well saturated with freight rail, but getting the right of ways and building permits for high speed rail is evidently a completely different animal? I understand that high speed rail needs different right of ways than lower speed rails, larger turns and all that, but it seems like the processes for getting shit done in one case should at least cross over to the other.

Or is it the case that all the rail we already have is from an era when we were still competent at building, and if we had to do it all over from scratch we wouldn't even be able to get freight rail done?
Agreed, it was a typo.
Ah yeah, I can totally see how it can be useful for churning put tons of code. Even without copy-paste, just generating a ton of references and rewriting/improving them. Anecdotally, I’ve tried asking deepseek to review a few files of my code — it wasn’t bad at all, though not without false positives.
You know, I initially didn't watch the video, because there's so much bs that I don't have time to consume all the bs. It seemed plausible to me that people would exaggerate or misrepresent what Musk did, because that's what people do in (current year argument).

But then I watched the video, and it's just flat out a Nazi salute. There's no doubt. He's not "throwing his heart to the audience," he's not accidentally making a cumbersome gesture, he's just Heil Hitlering right in front of everybody.

So I don't know what you mean by "unironically believe this." I don't know what the "mainstream media" says, and I don't really care. I have eyes. I can see what he did.

So tell me this, whom should I believe, you and your complaints about the media, or my own eyes?
I'm working on a tool which validates the HTML in your web application as it's being used. Because valid HTML is still important, and otherwise you need to integrate HTML valid into a test suite in CI (which is hard), or you need to manually validate pages with one of the online validators (which is tedious and doesn't scale).

While I think your points about some of the difficulties that arise in multi-language/framework projects is fair, I sort of roll my eyes whenever someone frames Rust as something like the "hip new thing".

The Linux kernel's first "release" was in 1991, hit 1.0 in 1994, and arguably the first modern-ish release in 2004 with the 2.6 kernel. Rust's stable 1.0 release was in 2015, 13 years ago. There are people in the workforce now who were in middle school when Rust was first released. Since then, it has seen 85 minor releases and three follow-on editions, and built both a community of developers and gotten institutional buy-in from large orgs in business-critical code.

Even if you take the 1991 date as the actual first release, Rust as a stable language has existed for over 1/3 of Linux's public development history (and of course had a number of years of development prior to that). In that framing, I think that it's a little unfair to include it in the "hip new thing" box.

No, we do not agree.

In the short term irrationality can and does prevail in both markets and democracy. In the long term, the best product and ideas always win. This is why both democracy and markets are durable.

Paraphrased differently, this is the weak-form of the efficient market hypothesis. All decentralized processes have some level of gravitational pull toward efficiency. They're not perfectly efficient, obviously. But they trend in that direction on long time scales, unlike the alternative which is being anchored only to the whims of the fickle elite.
ROA (route of administration) also matters, and those figures you've given appear to be a mix of IV (intravenous) and IM (intramuscular) injection doses.

Many recreational users insufflate (snort) ketamine, and that ROA has much lower bioavailability than IM or IV - IIRC, it's something like 20% for insufflation, 80% for IM, and 100% for IV. Thus, you need a much higher dose for snorting.

Show HN: Instantly Translate Manga – TranslateManga
Since I was young, I've loved anime, and over the years, manga has brought me joy, given me courage, and sparked excitement in my heart.

However, as I read more, I realized that many of these manga weren't translated at all. I also came across some AI-based translation tools, but the results often fell short.

So, I decided to create a tool that allows manga fans to read and enjoy their favorite manga, no matter the language or whether a translation team is available.

This product has just been launched, and there are certainly areas that can be improved. However, with time, I'm confident it will only get better.

You're welcome to try it out and share your valuable feedback!
5% accuracy can be worth a lot.

The price of any of these services pales in comparison to getting a human involved in any fraction of cases.

It is likely reasonable to expect the base LMs to keep getting better and for there to not be a moat on accuracy in the long term, but businesses are not just built on benchmark accuracy and have plenty of other ways to survive, even if the technology under the hood changes.

>It sucks that all the Civ competitors seemed to have failed so far. The genre really needs some innovation.

They failed because they were not the full "civ experience", which is to say attention to detail with character design, artwork, music, voice acting, etc. etc. They were mostly just attempts at innovating on the gameplay mechanics and treating the historical aspect as an afterthought, rather than a main focus.

Indie devs can make great games with great mechanics, but this video from the OP kinda demonstrates the difference between indie and AAA dev. No matter how good of a game you can make, you simply will never have the resources for the level of polish required to truly compete against something like Civ. Short of another AAA studio taking up the mantle, I doubt anyone will ever outdo them.

Often the strong type system of C++ means that if take C code and compile it with a C++ compiler it will run faster. Though part of the reason it is faster C++ will allow the compiler to make assumptions that might be false and so there is a (very small IMHO) chance that your code will be wrong after those optimizations. C++ often has better abstractions that if you use will allow C++ to be faster than C can.

If Rust doesn't also compile faster than C because of the better abstractions that should be considered just a sign of compilers needing more work in the optimize and not that Rust can't be faster. Writing optimizers is hard and takes a long time, so I'd expect Rust to be behind.

Note that the above is about real world benchmarks, and is unlikely to amount to 0.03% difference in speed - it takes very special setups to measure these differences, while simple code changes can easially but several hundred percentage differences. Common microbenchmarks generally are not large enough for the type system to make a difference and so often show C as #1 even though in real world problems it isn't.

> - when it comes to torrent management, there is no way to group torrents into groups with common settings (important if you use multiple private trackers) - people recommend having multiple installations of qBittorrent side by side

Probably easiest to do this via docker-qbittorrent-nox.

The Linux ISOs (not a euphemism) I'm seeding probably get about a third of their peer connections via IPv6.

The amount of copium when it comes to China vs US is illogical. If you’ve ever done business in China, you know there are honest folk and there are officials who do backroom deals that flaunt or bend the law, particularly abroad. If there’s money to be had, it will be made. If there’s points to be scored on the latest edict, they will be scored. If it needs to be done, but the public can’t handle hearing about it for their own good, it shall be so.
Thanks for your advice.

I won't argue with you so hard if it's your "opinions". What you described is not an opinion. And facts could be wrong. Plainly wrong.

Yeah, as I said earlier your number might be correct as an estimation for prefilling 1000 tokens on Llama 3 8B. That's not what everybody here called "decode". Your number shows that prefill is compute-bound. So what?

As far as I'm concerned FreeCAD has been the world's leading CAD program for at least the past 8 years (which is how long I've been using it).

All of the competition is at least one of (worse; proprietary; doesn't run on Linux), which means FreeCAD beats all of them in my value system.

Data structured as trees permit a lot of sublinear operations. Set intersection for example, you traverse the two trees in the same order, and where a node exists in one and not the other, you know nothing under it is in the intersection.

> If those insights ever do come, I don’t believe they’ll correspond to anything prewired into our brains or experienced in our lives, and will never be remotely satisfying.

I don't know why you'd assume that.

Euler's identity certainly doesn't correspond to anything prewired, and yet it's very satisfying.

The philosophical insights will be satisfying if they are simple and elegant. Our theory of biological evolution through natural selection isn't remotely prewired either, but that doesn't stop it from being one of the most philosophically satisfying theories we've come up with.

High speed travel in Europe is quite affordable. A 3h train trip (~360 miles, like the distance between Toronto and Montreal) costs about 40€ in Italy or in France if you buy in advance.
Research is also very taxing on the mind. I'm not sure I could do it for a whole career, as enjoyable as it has been.
Also, who's going to want to go from Toronto to QC/Montreal? Unless you live in/near the French quarter of Toronto, this doesn't really benefit many people... language barrier and Quebec's deep hatred of English and such...

> There is no choice to earn less, take it easy

There is no choice to go to your boss and say “hey I want to work 20 hours, can you cut my salary in half and keep my benefits”?

This misunderstands your value as an employee (linear function of time at the office) and signals you aren’t really interested in the project.

However there absolutely are companies, and roles within the company, where you can work much less than 40 hours - you just can’t explicitly ask for it.

At some level of wealth, in modern-day America, the idea of a court appointing a psychologist against someone's wishes and this actually being enforceable becomes fanciful. Even the idea of punishing such a person for any crime short of publicly documented ritual murder is dubious. I don't know if Elon reached that level of wealth, but I suspect he has.

Has anyone outside of China tried to tackle the kinds of long distances there are in Canada?

Good timing because Trump should be significantly weaker, and it'll be clear where Trumpism is headed in the culture, but also it will be more clear where AI will end up.

Geography and density are the only things excluding the rest of the country from getting HSR.

Vancouver to Seattle and Edmonton to Calgary are the only other locations in Canada where it would be cot effective.

Edmonton could even end up with a terminus station in downtown Edmonton instead of the airport at the edge of the city but that likely won't happen due to provincial and municipal incompetence if they even get around ot building HSR in Alberta.
