LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nug-doug/ (I'd love to connect with more people from HN, whether or not you can hire me. I _like_ you people.)

I'm a DevOps/Platform/Site Reliability Engineer near Cleveland. I have ~10 years experience with the platform stuff, and I was a Mac/iOS developer for a few years prior to that. I have a BA in CS (there's a story as to why I didn't get a BS Eng). I currently have a public trust clearance and should be able to get higher without issue.

I thrive on anything in the SDLC – developer experience, CI/CD, test automation, you name it. I recently led a small team that modernized a major product for the Department of Veterans Affairs, completing the migration in under a year, cutting deployment time, adding integrated tests, reducing incidents, increasing observability, complying with everything we need to comply with, etc.

I love digging into complex systems, eliminating headaches, and creating environments where teams feel confident and empowered.
I think this is a good start, X high speed queries per hour then unlimited low-priority ones after. Do you know of any specific companies that do this we could take a look at?

Microsoft removed the mandatory requirement, so now instead of refusing to install it just gives a disclaimer that it's "unsupported" as per the linked page

So you can install Vanilla Windows 11, no third party, on decade old hardware without losing anything other than performance (And an annoying disclaimer)
As someone who had a juvenile record I can confirm that companies do background checks. The felony misdemeanor as a minor still followed me for 7 years into adulthood.

As a consequence I hold my breath about job background checks to this day. Realize that background checks aren't done until they've offered you the job. In Seattle Tech, and thus covered under WA State laws, I've always had criminal record, job history, sometimes credit, but very rarely education. Never had a drug test.

Expect Federal background checks, and then they check in the cities, county level, and state based on the prior addresses you supplied.

Most job history in the US is tracked through Lexis Nexis or Equifax (owner of The Work Number). Education history through the Education Student Clearinghouse.

The whole process is automated. It's software, looking for records that contain the word "felony", deciding your future. Anybody working there is making very little money and they have no power nor oversight.
Do the people who hack 360s also know how to prevent them from inevitably red-ringing? Cause that's the biggest thing discouraging me from buying another (my other 2 went red).
I really loved using slim and only recently abandoned it because the benefits for using Cursor to code were so good.

Slim made views way easier to look at, understand, and code. I personally gained a lot of efficiency working with it.

I met her when I was 35 and she was 36. Totally unreal human who is the best person I have ever met. She settled on her ex-husband and after 5 years they split amicably, both understanding their mistake. She was "too old" so she figured she would just live a solo life. After a few years her friends made a profile for her and put it up. Its been two years and people are still jealous of our intense bond. Currently I'm looking for a ring.

Hold out hope, it's not totally over. I was you for many years.
Interesting stuff, thanks for the clarification!

Did MS provide SDKs for other OSes for v1 or was it just easier for people to make an open source one?
If structured properly, Onkel Franz takes equally or less than Uncle Sam.
so you mean how academics search for relevant publications on a topic, which is the direct inspiration for the original Google ranking algorithm, back in the happy days when the web was young and had not optimized itself around short-term money making.
Congrats on the launch! Does it support Hinglish (Hindi + English)? I'm a native Hindi speaker, but I found the Hindi in the demo video hard to follow. Many Hindi speakers, especially in everyday conversations, naturally mix Hindi and English — often using English for technical or difficult terms. Would love to know if the model handles that kind of language blend
I have been migrating my private repos to a private Gitea instance of my own. I am well aware that anything on Github is used to train Copilot.

> At this point I am fairly convinced that software development is solved.

Writing code is 20% of software development, which is why I am still in demand even if I refuse to use LLM software. But employers and recruiters are not rational, and will soon rather hire cheap, expendable "monkeys on a typewriter" than experienced engineers.
> It would be a huge undertaking for my wife and me to uproot our lives and move to someplace exotic and different, but even if we were to do so, we couldn't move to everywhere exotic and different. And anyway, we wouldn't be "starting a new life" there in the same way that a young person would.

I say this gently, but it sounds like you're trying to find reasons why you can't move anymore, none of which are very convincing.

Of course you can't move to everywhere exotic and different—that was never possible even when you were young. Of course you can't start a new life there in the same way that a young person would—even as a young adult it's often impossible to integrate as deeply as someone born there.

If that didn't stop you before, why does it stop you now? Do you perhaps simply like your current life enough that the incentive to move is much lower? If so, that's a great problem to have and should be celebrated.
They could as well call it Kickass Copilot and would have been more representative of health. A dragon is a symbol of evil power, dummies.
This kind of thing is blowing up all over the place, see here:

Only high oil and gas prices specifically. And honestly, low gas prices is good if it helps move away from coal.

But unfortunately, even the most liberal political groups have walked back any interest in solving climate change at the margin. You see this with the endless life of the "100 companies cause climate change" misinformation.
I guess that’s just the price of good software..
I’m surprised it topped the reasoning models for code generation and hard prompts. The style control results are also impressive: https://twitter.com/lmarena_ai/status/1896590154871210154
It is true that I plan a custom renderer with scripting support, to replace the HTML version. From the tests I performed by now, it can be smoother and faster than the current version. But it is yet to be seen how well would a substitution to HTML catch up with the current state of art CSS+HTML+JS.
Do we have to optimize everything?
Very cool! Actively exploring some ideas in the computer-use space, happy to connect! Email in my bio :)
I normally react to sites touching my scrollbar with language I shouldn't repeat on someplace as innocent as the internet.

Scrollbuddy is different. I would take a bullet for scrollbuddy. I want him on all sites.
That price is probably $4600 for one Xilinx Versal.

For the MPW run you would get ~100 parts. When everything is said and done, and you pay for packaging etc., on a MPW run you'll likely pay something like $50K. So ~$500ea

The eFabless price of $10K for a full run, including a packaged part, was an unparalleled deal.
I have a family member that is 70 years old, social security is enough to barely pay for their mortgage. They have been trying to get any job for the last 5 years but haven't been able to, most likely due to age discrimination.

They're alive but I wouldn't call it a life worth living, more like subsisting. If they didn't know me they would likely be homeless but since I can help with a few bills they aren't losing their home and can get 3 meals a day.

How can this person start a company with AI? Honestly. Your suggestion is devoid from reality for tens of millions of people. It feels like a troll because it's devoid of any empathy.
I can't help but think that XBox 360 emulation is the only long term path that exists for the 360, which is concerning because only Xenia to my knowledge exists and it's still experimental.
> you have to do a bunch of analysis to figure when something is being used as an integer and then you can make that code fast

It doesn't get much attention now that WASM exists, but asm.js essentially solves this, so a more head-to-head comparison ought to be possible. (V8 has optimisations specific to asm.js.)

I can't contribute that much yet. I'm working on a set of real estate investments to hopefully start the chain within 5-6 years. One of the things that would help for now is to experiment with small projects and hopefully identify something(s) that could make a good long term investment engine.

Recent masters graduate in applied compsci, have always held at least a 1/2 position (more outside of lecture periods) as a corporate student during my entire studies. Have about 5 years equivalent of full time experience developing mostly backend with some full stack experience. Consider myself to be an allrounder, from DevOps to Monitoring I can basically pick up anything pretty quickly. I prefer to work in Go, and my array of private projects reflects that. If you are interested, just shoot me an informal email and get to know me.
"Should be" is a joke, right?

You can pull off over $200k/yr and never touch the principal. If you can let it sit for a decade it will ~double in terms of purchasing to just a hair under $14M. Another ten years on top of that and you're retiring at 58 (still "early") with $27.5M in today's-dollars purchasing power.

Personally I'd probably just live off $200k starting today but there's a hell of an argument for retiring before 50 and still having ~$350k/yr in purchasing power.

Not every model of the 360 will inevitably red ring. Those were typically only the "fat" models and there are some fixes to prevent it from happening. It usually just involves changing to some better quality thermal paste & reflowing the board.

> if the user of the AI doesn't do any of the above then I think the US copyright office says it can't be copyrighted in the first place (so no profiting for them anyway).

Am I understanding right that the point here is that while you are able to get away with using copyrighted material to turn a profit, your end users cannot, so no worries?

If a cartel is alone in the forest carrying out no kidnappings, assignations, drug sales, or other physical effects that can be policed by conventional means... does it matter?

Hello,
Senior engineer here with a broad background across the corporate and non-profit worlds. Experience in both engineering and leadership roles, looking for either, but preferring leadership, especially product management.

My background in industrial design and years of fabrication experience have given me a unique vantage compared to your run-of-the-mill software engineer. Read more on my website www.joshmleslie.com

I still don't get why you think I suggest you should "trust" anything
Sabine has a chip on her shoulder about academia and simultaneously she gets the most rewarded for feeding into the anti academic narrative. That also plays well on HN where there is a cohort of people that like to pretend a PhD is useless and that PhD holders are less intelligent than themselves.
This video does a deep dive on the subject:

Which JIT would be the easiest to implement to log this information? A time series LLM should be able to analyze it and give predictions.

Looks like PYPY is the most extensible.

And that the JIT is rebuilt from rpython, so it is fairly open to extension.
The point is that both for- and not-for-profit systems can be exploitative and often are. And not-for-profits have extra avenues for exploitation.

> Yes, that is corruption. However, it is being punished!

In the example I shared, the evidence suggests that the punishment, as you call it, has not been adequate to solve the problem. And that problem has been ongoing for a decade and a half. And still continues.
While I agree with the ultimate conclusion of the article, that FAA regulations need to be modernized for commercial use of sUAS systems, it completely fails to analyze any of the other relevant dynamics facing the American drone industry. There are a plethora of American companies building drones for commercial and/or defense purposes (I work at one) but this article reads like the author knows only about the most publicized one and another company they heard about on a podcast. The article would benefit from an understanding of the
Probably the most major blocker for the authors dreams of swarms of millions of American military drones is the following: jet engines and rocket motors can be produced in the US profitably, the American economy just isn’t set up to build drones motors, props, etc. in an economically efficient manner. Because of this, the cost-optimized drones developed for the commercial sector will never be acceptable for the us military.
Secondly, the author seems to think that self-organized systems are a brand new innovation and would trivially port to a battlefield environment. However, these techniques rely on 5G connectivity and gps, whereas military sUAS systems need GPS-denied autonomy and the ability to communicate in a heavily jammed environment.
> which would free us humans to work on other problems

We have heard this refrain since the start of the Industrial Revolution.
How does a regulation that creates an invasive federal ownership registry with no meaningful legislative controls on the confidentiality of that information help to protect the public?
Guarded devirtualization is different from the speculation that I'm talking about.

To me, speculation is where the fail path exits the optimized code.

To handle JS's dynamism, guarding is usually not worth it (though JSC has the ability to do that, if the profiling says that the fail path is probable). I believe that most of HotSpot's perf comes from speculation rather than guarded devirt.
Sure. I’m just pushing back on the notion that Social Security’s insolvency has been buried by anyone. The recent trend of rebranding personal ignorance as evidence of conspiracy is mildly annoying.
Thanks! It's not my usual writing style, but I read that book years ago and am probably channeling some bits of Leopold today. :-)
Between WWI and WWII, the US didn't get in any "hot practice". (Which is what I think you're talking about?) That didn't stop us from learning what we needed to know. Nor did it stop us from fielding a formidable military. The new technologies at the time were wielded by us to deadly effect. Carriers and tanks in particular. We didn't just sit around and get really good at digging trenches and moving dreadnoughts around.

The same will happen here. I guarantee you, the American military will be among the best in the world at employing the services of satellites, autonomous ordinance and surveillance, and cyber offensives.

You have concerns about our facility with drones? Be assured, we'll be able to work out how to create nightmarish swarms just as well as Europeans or Chinese can. We'll have the same facility with working with countermeasures and mitigating countermeasures as well.
I was thinking of static monomorphization as in Rust.

There is an open issue in OpenAdapt to implement COM support: https://github.com/OpenAdaptAI/OpenAdapt/issues/873

This could be a valuable reference.
Do you have a more specific criticism about the "chip on her shoulder" and how "gets the most rewarded for feeding into the anti academic narrative"?
COM doesn't work on the Web. They prefer to burn away the power features (like S/MIME in Outlook!) and release a strictly inferior, slower product, for the sake of...

... honestly I don't know what. It makes zero sense - it's pissing off corporate users, who are already captive. I'm guessing hidden inflation strikes again - they can't afford maintaining two versions, so they prefer to go with the worse one.
I do not imply that technical implementation is hard, they probably solved the problem even without AI, just have every step of the process (i.e. for every item going to employee 10 have red-amber-green buttons and red pushed back, yellow keeps but with deviations, green is perfect. And a flow would have all metrics. Some random QC/QA would verify and iron out issues.

It is the "camera in my face 8h" that would get A LOT of attention by member state gov/labour ministry and definitely the EDPS would have a party on their corpses.
