Analyzing the json_value struct, I don't get why values, object_keys and length are fields outside the union. I expected something like:

struct json_value {
enum json_type type;
union {
bool boolean;
char *string;
double number;
struct {
char **keys;
struct json_value *values;
size_t length;
} object;
} value;
};

Of course I would also use anonymous structs and unions to simplify

json->value.object.length

to

json->length
Yes, it can, and by default be through SignalR. The problem is both SignalR has its own limitations as well as web-sockets in general.

I have never seen a SignalR (and recently Blazor) implementation without significant and characteristic issues the moment you actually star to observe end-user errors/issue/anatomies. Either through automated reporting or user feedback. And this is because SignalR is built on .NET and .NET has many different threading issues when you need those thread to be stable and robust (not talking about transit B2B apps)

It always happens. Without exception.

You do not have to take my word for it, look at the active, open, and historical issues here: https://github.com/SignalR/SignalR/issues

The issues are plainly fundamental.

It's absurd. And it only survives because it's Microsoft.
All the models do that. If you tell them to keep it short and to the point, they oblige.

If you're talking about how much it takes to build the fab: infinity dollars, nobody builds new fabs in these nodes anymore. Skywater is barely keeping its head above water as-is and that's mostly wafer services, not tapeouts.

> Showing off main cities is not proof that people don’t live in poverty.

The claim was:

“Showing off main cities” is a perfectly reasonable thing to do to support this claim.

Right, that's the exact point I make in my blog post: you have to TEST the code - not just with automated tests, you have to actually try it out yourself as well. https://simonwillison.net/2025/Mar/2/hallucinations-in-code/

You're being a little deceptive here, by summing votes for all candidates combined as "against".

What really matters is Trump v Harris, and Trump won that both in the electoral college and in the popular vote.

Wait, is this supposed to have already happened, in your view? Shouldn't people be reading generated novels, teaching from generated textbooks, optioning generated movie scripts, etc if that were the case?
Sadly, the last art of that MO is “…knowing that if you do fuck something up critical, that other people will point out your mistakes, so you have no incentive to actually be right in the first place”.

I still feel like they don't have the right amount of human to them, maybe it's because I'm Australian and it sounds like I'm hearing an American robot?

Edit: well I asked the "male" model to speak more like an Australian and yep, getting way more uncanny. If it had an Australian accent I think it would mess with me more
ideally they should but when I asked the model to talk about the axioms of group theory it turned really sad and noncooperative;)

One interesting aspect was when I said what the fuck it ruined the whole conversation, maybe there will be a co-evolution of mannerism, so humans will have to learn that the way they talk to machines will have consequences down the line. Or we teach the machines to be cooperative no matter what, just like ChatGPT (or north koreans).

This is partly true, Automated object detection already exists. If LLMs haven't fundamentally shifted Ukraine war yet then it's plausible it has limited value in progressing drone warfare.

I disagree you can simply automate it via IFF though... basically because IFF is easy grounds for counter drone attacks. Establishing IFF just makes your enemies job easier unless you have heavy anti drone tech which no country does yet.

Automating "this person holding a gun in a given GPS grid is hopefully not holding a stick and is hopefully not a friendly/civilian... and calculate odds they should be executed" is not something easily done by a drone. Especially when there's electronic warfare and drones don't have the luxury of spending lots of time looking.

In Ukraine for example people wear 50 different uniforms because they buy them on the internet or come from random countries. And they carry similar AK rifles. What's an LLM going to do? Kill random people with ~50% accuracy using a very finite supply of drones? Or just have humans fly them from the rear.
SerenityOS was already quite successful before they started Ladybird. So successful that he was already making enough off sponsorship to do it full time. It was having the time to take on something as ambitious as a full web browser for SerenityOS that led to the project to begin with.

I agree that Ladybird is lucky to have a dev not only of his seniority but of his specific expertise. However, there is no denying that a huge reason for the success of his projects is non-technical and more about his ability to build community and engagement.

You don't have to worry about this. Ideas are what matter - American startups aren't spun from any special cloth or unique talent. That's jingoist hoo-haa.

Having worked for a few US-based startups, I can't help but roll my eyes when people venerate our business culture. At the bottom, startups are built with the cheapest foreign labor and shipped with the shittiest minimum viable product. Widespread success is attained less through iteration on innovation, and more through exploiting moral ambiguity and offshoring better than your competitors. You're not in a race to disrupt Apple and Google, you're in a race to find something equally as lucrative as an advertising or service monopoly. To beat America at it's own game, you'd have to import our own ignorant politics. Even China can't fully embrace that level of contradictory stupidity.

I guess that's not really a new opinion, and I'm sure HN will drag me for bringing it up. My $0.02 is that you don't want an American economy, and Europe will work very hard to ensure startups don't reprise the mistakes of America's most lucrative (and harmful) success stories.

> as long as the aliens didn't use the work of human musicians.

Don't you mean "inspired by" the work of human musicians? It's a fine line between inspiration and training.

If AI listens to human music in order to produce similar music, isn't that similar to human musicians listening to other music, then setting a goal to do their own take?

Musicians who use four-on-the-floor or familiar arrangements of verse-chorus-verse, and lyrics about love and loss, are aiming to fit into an existing pop music market. Without "training data" from other music already in the market, do you honestly believe those musicians would have created the music they did? Of course not, so why can't the Aliens/AI listen/train on our music and make their own version which sounds similar in order to fit the market?
I guess SLIME just works well for most as I would say it is still ahead every time I see python devs using their 'great tools' including a lsp in pain. I like a lsp where, during development, my core runs and I can see live feedback of it running when I make changes. Kind of like, you know, an image. That does not say you need to depend on that image outside dev (like an lsp, reset it when you reload a project, quit the editor etc), but during dev it's just superior imho.
Most of those BYD numbers are hybrids.
Because it’s a matter of both time (if you don’t react definitely, that means that you may have the weapons but not the discipline to use it, so no credibility), and deterrence (conventional destruction is not a deterrent in this case, and you will only refrain from using your nukes if your are confident that the response will be more nukes towards you - in which case, your initial military objective is void, because the consequence of your action is that you don’t exist anymore).
Setting aside how completely made up this sounds, how could that possibly be what "shattered" credibility in mainstream science for you?
Ah okay, I think I misinterpreted what you were saying.
Where Biden really failed was messaging, and the failure was at least in part related to his age.

Trump does an amazing job messaging. Sure, 99% of what he says is either a lie senile ramblings, but he’s out there all the time. A social media POTUS indeed.
I learned several languages before Python, but the one that made it the most difficult was Ruby. After having done Ruby for years and becoming really familiar with idioms and standard practices, coming to python feels like trying to cuddle with a porcupine.

List (or set, or dict) comprehensions are really cool... one level deep. The moment you do 'in...in' my brain shuts off. It takes me something like 30 minutes to finally get it, but then ten seconds later, I've lost it again. And there are a bunch of other things that just feel really awkward and uncomfortable in Python
There are newer, non-amphetamine drugs for treating ADHD like Strattera, an SNRI (Selective Norepinephrine Re-uptake Inhibitor). It will be interesting to see what happens if and when these drugs displace the amphetamines (the current front-line treatment for ADHD) to the point that getting a prescription for Adderall or Vyvanse or some other form of medicinal speed because you have (or think you have) ADHD becomes difficult or impossible.

Mere inaction in a 78-year-old is not reform. If it were, A Christmas Carol would have been a much shorter story.
18F is not the only department that is being shut down.

The current iteration of USAID was created by an act of Congress. Unless the President's office has been given the power to create and pass legislature at some point in the past five weeks, only Congress can unmake it.

So was the CFPB, which is also being shut down.

So was the Department of Education.

> We demonstrate that we can improve BBB function and reduce neuroinflammation and cognitive deficits in aged mice by restoring core 1 mucin-type O-glycans to the brain endothelium using adeno-associated viruses. Cumulatively, our findings provide a detailed compositional and structural mapping of the ageing brain endothelial glycocalyx layer and reveal important consequences of ageing- and disease-associated glycocalyx dysregulation on BBB integrity and brain health.
Not an expert here, but afaik a turbine section consists of alternating spinning blades attached to the shaft and stationary vanes attached to the duct, which de-spin the air coming off the blades and prepare it for the next set. I'm not sure why the vanes are often hidden in cutaway views.

If you had a spinning duct, you'd presumably need a stationary shaft in the middle for mounting the vanes, and would have similar tolerance issues between the tips of the stationary vanes and the rotating duct. There's reasons that it might be easier to solve (the duct can be lower temperature) and reasons it's harder (bearings for a giant spinning duct). Not sure if anyone has tried such a design.
This is still far less bitrate than the equivalent BluRay. Netflix dropped their 4k bitrate during COVID and never looked back.

It is depressing to think that future presidents will probably follow Trump’s lead. I liked having a boring president for four years who didn’t feel the need to be the center of attention all the time. I get that disciplined restraint must be balanced with communicating to Americans, like maybe the best kid was with Obama or Clinton, who communicated often but never did with so much bluster or arrogance.
It's an interesting and maybe useful idea definitely, but I agree I don't think it's passed yet.
Those are Russian bot talking points. Best to just ignore. Just like saying Ukraine started the current conflict and not so subtly removing all responsibility from Russia.
I have worked for a fair number of BigCos now, and they all have their own little annoyances.

As far as I can tell, pretty much all “enterprise” companies drain your life force. They’re all subtly slightly different in how they suck away your will to live, and some are worse than others, but they’re all kind of horrible in their own wonderful ways. There is almost always cutthroat shit.

I wasn’t a huge fan of working at Apple but don’t let me take it away from you if you do. If you can stomach it, stick with it, let the stock vest, and retire comfortably in your 50’s.
> There is absolutely no way you get something anywhere equivalent to a recent Severance episode (4K Dolby Vision Dolby Atmos) that Apple is streaming to you at ~25Mbps onto a DVD.

Well first off, what percentage of viewing hours are in 4K?

Second, a DVD could store a 54 minute episode at 20Mbps. That's close. And if I found the hdtvtest video you're talking about the bitrate was "between 15 and 25" so it would likely fit as-is. Also, that comparison was seven years ago with Apple using h.265, and today they could use AV1 to get the same quality with 20% fewer bits. Maybe h.266 to be even smaller or better.

(If you're interpreting their comment as "with actual DVD encoding", I think you're misreading them. I don't think they're suggesting streaming services are on par with low-noise 480p. And it doesn't fit with the CD comment.)
Population alone and artillery alone are the ingredients of logistics, not logistics itself.

The failure of the initial 3-days invasion was a demonstration that the « great Russian army », even with the support of Wagner and Tchetchenia, was unable to plan, execute and sustain a flash attack.

Yes, they may improve in the meantime. But that takes years of discipline and continuous training. So while that’s an option for them, that’s also a weakness that can be decisive.

I attended a bigwig event where Jason gave a speech; I’d heard of him but hadn’t followed his podcast or seen him talk before. I was dumbfounded by the arrogance and lack of concern for people.

If you own a home in your own country, please stay there. From my experience with EU it is not worth it. On the surface it looks crazy good. But west has their own share of problems.

The cultural mix is difficult, second class citizen is always going to be a thing. There won't be racism or anything like that. It just the aura of people change when they speak with natives vs non-natives.

Ask this important question before moving to EU: is it worth trading your family, culture, connection, and your ability to communicate for a foreign land where you are going to be second class citizen, your struggle will only give a glimmer of hope for your children?

Left EU for my home. Never returning there. The promise of paradise isn't appealing at all.

Experience it once in your life, but do not stay.

Agreed. I just had that moment like the guy in the movie "Her", the first time he speaks to his OS. Laughing at myself for talking to a computer like a real person. Then had to hang up because it crossed that uncanny valley.

But then I thought of one more question to ask, reconnected to ask it, and it said, "Hey! You hung up just as we were just getting to the good stuff!" which threw me off, so I stammered gobsmacked for a minute, and it made fun of my stammering, imitating it. Whoa! So so SO good! Crazy good.

Has the DOJ mandated that I'm wrong yet? Because if not, then no, Apple has every imperative to do as they please because the iPhone is evidently not a monopoly.

We had a loooooong time to bury this argument in the ground. I think the iPhone is a monopoly, but until the DOJ agrees it's all a bunch of hot air. Truly, their stance is that you should buy a different phone if you disagree. FOMO proprietors like Apple delight in that answer, Hacker News acts like it's pulling teeth.

A lot of bars in Asia will have working girls. I used to go to a Russian bar in Beijing called Chocolate Bar (ya, that was its actual name), which had a Russian stage show that is kind of cool if you’ve never seen one before. There were a bunch of girls in the back from Ukraine (or Russia), Mongolia, and China. Beijing had a lot of that actually, but I think Xi cracked down, although I stopped going to bars after getting married.
It really is an astonishing technological feat! Also note that the largest model they trained is only 8.3B parameters (8B backbone + .3B decoder). It's exciting to think that they're going to be releasing this model under an Apache 2.0 license.
I hear this type of statement often, but people rarely mention the scope or who the brain drainees are. In my experience, it's exceptionally rare that American talent comes to Europe compared to the opposite, and I see little reason why that would change in the near future. When it comes to Chinese individuals returning to China from the US, this isn't exactly traditional brain drain, and it's also something China has actively, sometimes aggressively, been pursuing the past decade or so.
