It looks partly like OCaml, with the "let ... in" kind of syntax. Also the "unit" word. I think in OCaml it means a function that doesn't return any value, but why is the word unit used for that?
I've never used crypto or blockchain for anything. But I've used LLMs every day for years now. They are extremely useful. For example, I was able to get a quick summary of this 10,000 word article:

- OpenAI loses money on every interaction

- Hallucinations are unsolved

- Zitron questions the validity of OpenAI's user numbers

- He also criticizes their lack of product differentiation

- He points to the low adoption rates of AI products

Those are valid criticisms, but that's too many words for what mostly amounts to stating well known issues and then arguing based on our current limited knowledge that they likely won't be overcome. I'm not claiming the AI hype is real, but the doomsaying is overblown, too.

In the first pass (i=1), A[1] will end up with the largest value and a later pass cannot displace it.

In the second pass (i=2), A[2] will end up with the 2nd largest value (which might be the same as the largest value, if it appeared more than once in the list). And so on.

I mention sqlite + sqlite-vec at the end, noting it requires technical overhead and it's not as easy as read_parquet() and write_parquet().

I just became aware of lancedb and am looking into that, although from glancing at the README it has similar issues to faiss with regards to usability for casual use, although much better than faiss in that it can work with colocated metadata.
I've worked in many an ag company: All the ideas Sensei supposedly has are in in way innovative: places like Monsanto/Bayer had been trying to do work in those directions a decade ago, and it's not as if they were short of people that understand agriculture. But as far as I am aware, most of the efforts in those companies have been scaled back.

The fact of the matter is that agriculture startups have as nasty a failure rate as most other kinds of startups, but they take far longer, and far more money, until we reach the point that it's clear that they've reach said terminal state. I could name a couple that have been running for 6+ years with no revenue, and where insiders claim there's minimal prospects of the effort going anywhere, but there are some VCs that are happy keeping said 100+ employee startups running with no output anyway.
Every 3-4 hours I stop for a 30 minute meal. Ye, sounds reasonable.
Shhh ... you're spoiling everybody's confirmation bias against LLMs. They are obviously terrible at coding, just as we have known all along, and everybody should laugh at them. Nothing to see here!

Grok 3 with thinking is comparable to o1 for writing complex algorithms.

However, Grok sometimes loses the context where o1 seems not to. For this reason I still mostly use o1.

And going beyond this: my layman's understanding of biology is that the way in which genes are expressed can be highly nonlinear and modulated by all sorts of different pathways. If you have some clarity on how these pathways work, probabilistic programming might be a helpful tool here in a Bayesian context.

I don't know about Microsoft, but I'm very clear that the "miracle" operated by Apple was exactly to perfect foreign supply chain at a time when Intel/Dell/HP and others were still heavily focused on the US. The quality of Apple products was already there since the beginning, but they had no way to compete with the PC market until they figured out Asian supply chains.

My girlfriend lives in an upscale, gated community. Her HOA has done the exact opposite. They change the gate code weekly as way to "protect" themselves from this situation. However, it's kinda had the opposite effect - tailgating has become totally acceptable, even the norm, as people can't keep up with the gate code changes. Amazon drivers usually just sit outside for a minute or two, then tailgate into the neighborhood.
The copying here probably goes to strawberry from o1 which is like at least 6 months but maybe copying efforts started even earlier.
You can remove the word 'an' if you're attributing some weird meaning to it, the point is still valid. Genetic algorithms and optimizers are usually in there to make AI algorithms, they aren't themselves AI algorithms.

And you have to be doing something rather specific with a pile of if statements for it to count as an expert system.
It's hinted at in the article, but so far, it seems that 95%+ of use cases are satisfied by free-tier models, and will imminently be satisfied by local, open-weight models. It's not clear that people or businesses will ever be willing to pony up for the extra marginal accuracy when they can get most of the benefits for cheap or for free.

> In this case the code went from bad -> good.

That doesn't matter, the code changed. It's not like you can know what effects changes had before checking whether changes occurred.

> The bug had existed for a long time before it finally got triggered in a catastrophic way.

The issue isn't missing that one bug, it's not realizing that the code you are looking at isn't the version of the code on the affected machine.

> Even a large codebase has parts that are relatively stable. `fbagent` in this situation was a service responsible for gathering metrics, which is something that doesn't need that many changes (relative to, say product code) to it once it works.

Clearly changes were nevertheless happening. I don't care if you're dealing with a COBOL program that hasn't been updated since the 80s - if you have a problem now, I just don't see any reason why you would ever not check the revision history.
If something bad is done by a bad actor because of this vulnerability being discussed in public, that's no worse than something bad happening because this vulnerability exists but is only discussed in secret.

This is not some highly-technical vulnerability only accessible to nation-states with genius engineers and million-dollar labs with exotic instrumentation and brute-force supercomputers compute pulling down many megawatts of power. The OP literally logged into an open Wifi SSID, searched for the text on the page, and scrolled to the default password. None of those steps are hard to do, any jealous ex or disgruntled employee or divorced parent fuming in the parking lot for 5 minutes could effortlessly accomplish the same thing.

I honestly think it's likely that bad things have already happened due to this vulnerability - but not due to this disclosure.

But because it was only discussed in secret, no one ever got to the root cause of the issue and the hazard continued to be out there. Now that it's public, hopefully something will be done, and relatively quickly.
Neither a statement for or against Grok or Anthropic:

I've now just taken to seeing benchmarks as pretty lines or bars on a chart that are in no way reflective of actual ability for my use cases. Claude has consistently scored lower on some benchmarks for me, but when I use it in a real-world codebase, it's consistently been the only one that doesn't veer off course or "feel wrong". The others do. I can't quantify it, but that's how it goes.
I assume you have to be on that network to access the login. I'm 95% sure it the UI/admin is not accessible to the internet by default... but also, yes that shit should be way better. Even Comcast and other ISPs have done better than this for a decade or more now.
There is no cheap housing anywhere in the entire state of California. In the worst and poorest parts of the state where are basically no jobs or anything the housing is still way more expensive than anyone can afford.
No.

DeepSeek and now related projects have shown it’s possible to add reasoning via SFT to existing models, but that’s not the same as a prompt. But if you look at R1 they do a blend of techniques to get reasoning.

For Anthropic to have a hybrid model where you can control this, it will have to be built into the model directly in its training and probably architecture as well.

If you’re a competent company filled with the best AI minds and a frontier model, you’re not just purely copying… you’re taking ideas while innovating and adapting.
> That’s one way to measure it, sure. Another way is that archers can shoot 2 tiles away.

Well, if we are talking about games where the size of a square is a coherent question, they can only do that in Civ III; Civ 1/2 units have only attack/defense, units with weapons "better range" just goes into the attack/defense abstraction, whereas in Civ IV archery units get first strike, and artillery units damage city defenses, but, like all other units that can attack at all, they can attack only adjacent units. (Even the single use missile units in Civ 4 are just units with a lot of movement that are destroyed when they attack, not ones that have a "range" capability distinct from movement.)

Range units came back with Civ V, along with the introduction of hexes and the elimination of stacks.
Nice to see a new release from Anthropic. Yet, this only makes me even more curious of when we'll see a new Claude Opus model.

That could also lead to a depression. I haven't heard a lot of politicians here (Andrew Yang in 2020? does he even count as "a politician"?) with good plans for what to do when automation hits jobs even harder.
You would appear to be wrong, because A[1] ends up with the smallest element.

Specifically, on each case when i=2 and higher, j will still start at 1, so A[1] will still get referenced.

There's a door at work I regularly need to access. It used to be used for another purpose but now is just an extension of the work area. It's got a badge reader and simplex lock but I can't get badge access because I don't actually belong to that work area yet I'm there everyday anyway. However, someone wrote the simplex lock code on a sign in very small numbers for this exact purpose. Other simplex locks in the building use the default code you can find online. The whole building is secure so you'd never be able to walk up to these doors without proper credentials, they are mostly just there to keep out the curious or someone looking to borrow tools that they shouldnt.
Sounds like a great way to get locked into paying for more than you need.

There's a venerable history of this, from Oracle to Heroku. Solve today's problems slightly faster (minus a few days of plateng/DevOps work), and forever be exposed to having the screws tightened.

Hard pass. Infra should be commodity and replete with dozens of like kinded alternatives.

The worst offenders are those fancy JS CI/CD, one-click deploy solutions that cost 10,000x the underlying primitives. Roll your own and save yourself.

Even if someone didn't find your initial comment condescending, they likely would find this one to be so.
I agree that the assumption makes no sense, but the calculation offering an 80mi diameter elsewhere in the thread is, in fact, based on distributing the Earth's land area across the number of tiles in a (Civ 6 huge, IIRC) map, calculating the area of each tile based on that, and then calculating the distance across the tile based on the area.
> My gut feeling is that most Instagram users are now passive

That's just reflective of how the world has always worked. Most people are passive.

The point being made, I think, is that Instagram is a greater source of motivation to interact with the outside world than Reddit/Gaming is.

It sounds plausible enough to me but who knows?

I don't see why it's at all surprising.

Each iteration of the outter loop restuls in the smallest element moving into `A[i]`. And then the first `i` iterations of the inner loop are just wasting time.
Personally, I don't think having deep domain knowledge is as important. However, being able to write the spec based on interactions with the client / customer / stakeholders is. (The AI Math and hardware optimization "never" being doable by an AI seems like an arbitrary distinction to justify one's choices.)

Incidentally, I put the word "only" in quotes because I morally and aesthetically appreciate the strength of someone who can write to spec. I have no interest in demeaning the effort it takes to do so. I have worked with supposedly senior developers who ignore specs completely, even when the specs are done by a technical person and include details / unit tests.
Show HN: The WilderNet
The WilderNet is a passion project my friends and I have been working on.

Like many of you, I miss when the internet was overflowing with interesting websites written by real people.

I've seen several blog-sharing projects like ours - including one that was posted here this weekend! - but this is our take on it. We want it to be simple but interactive, and to have some kind of user input on the quality of the websites that are posted.

We are looking for feedback on the types of features we should focus on building out. And, if you know of any cool blogs or independent websites, please feel free to add them to the site. Thanks!
What happened to the n in restaurateur?
Or, like Meta, they make their money elsewhere and just seem interested in wrecking the economics of LLMs. As soon as an open-weight model is released, it basically sets a global floor that says "Models with similar or worse performance effectively have zero value," and that floor has been rising incredibly quickly. I'd be surprised if the vast, vast majority of queries ChatGPT gets couldn't get equivalently good results from llama3/deepseek/qwen/mistral models, even for those paying for the pro versions.
Yeah seems like you'd want to either copy, poach, or acquire the talent at Oishii, no? They look like they know what they are doing, although it's not consumer cheap yet, and the economics might never be.
Sour grapes. Most economists were just happy with this situation until recently. What I mean is, the current situation arises by the desire of Western businesses of getting hid of productive investments and concentrating only on capital investments. It has nothing to do with trading with an authoritarian government or not, which almost everyone believed was Ok until recently.

I can't see how this looks like a bubble sort to you, the inner loop isn't even comparing adjacent elements of the array.

Moreover the comparison is the opposite of what you would normally do: if A[i] < A[j] then swap(A[i], A[j])

I think the format here is pretty brilliant, because you can look at what's outside of the brackets to try to fill in a reasonable answer. The Brady Bunch one was followed by ]orian, which made for a useful hint.
> Tech is a poor fit for agriculture.

Incorrect. I worked for an Ag tech company for almost a decade. Ten years ago, farmers were downloading high resolution satellite imagery of their fields directly to their GPS enabled precision sprayers so that the spray rate would adjust continuously based on the vegetative index of the land they were over. I don't know what state of the art is today, but I imagine it would surprise folks who aren't in the field.
> Each iteration of the outter loop moves the smallest element into `A[i]`. The first `i` iterations of the inner loop are just wasting time.

In the first iteration of the outer loop, i=1, and in that case the inner loop moves the largest element into A[1].

So I don't think you can be correct.
This AI race is happening so fast. Seems like it to me anyway. As a software developer/engineer I am worried about my job prospects.. time will tell. I am wondering what will happen to the west coast housing bubbles once software engineers lose their high price tags. I guess the next wave of knowledge workers will move in and take their place?
There’s also complementary vs competitive: C++/python (pytorch, itk, ROS) or Go/js (default web stack) aren’t going to quibble over what belongs in what language- react/swift or c/rust codebases have no such natural partition
Appreciate the feedback! We actually just changed our pricing about a week ago. We used to do individual seats, but we found that smaller teams—especially those without a dedicated ops function—typically weren’t at the stage where they needed an API layer between devs and infrastructure.

For early-stage teams, a PaaS or ClickOps usually makes more sense. Massdriver really starts providing value when a team hits the point where devs need self-service, but ops still needs to enforce standards and visibility without becoming a bottleneck.

That said, we do have a free tier beyond the two-week trial for open-source projects, non-profits, and some partners. Happy to add you to it if you want to try it out—would love to be wrong about earlier-stage teams, but just haven’t seen it yet!
