Yep. I worked on a SaaS for one particular retail industry, and I would bet you anything they see more traffic when biweekly paydays and the calendar line up in certain ways. Either a couple days before (window shopping) or a few days after, once other bills are paid.

I loved Renegade. The multiplayer demo was great. It had such excellent map design. The trade-offs in buying upgrades felt very strategic, as well.
The blend operation happens on linearized values, so the frame buffer being gamma corrected is not a problem.

I took the screenshot of the the bill in their article and ran through the tool at https://va.landing.ai/demo/doc-extraction. The tool doesn't hallucinate any of the value as reported in the article. In fact, the value for Profit/loss for continuing operations is 1654 in their extraction which is the gt, still they've plot a red bbox around it.
you can probably get a sense of it based on your own usage of terraform and the log output (or the time various resources take to get managed in the Terraform Cloud/Enterprise UI). I think in the majority of cases you'll see that the bulk of the compute time is actually network bound, not because of the number of resources, just because the server at the other end (AWS, Azure, GCP, etc.) is doing a lot of work. I know in some cases things like SQL Server Clusters on Azure can take literally hours to provision. Terraform will spend that "compute" time sitting there waiting, it's not actually doing much resource intensive though.

And then at the end as you said "stores the new state". Which is basically a big JSON file. 10 resources? 1M resources? I'll leave you to work out how much it probably costs to save a JSON file of that size somewhere like S3 ;)
I never see ads with default Brave. I was under the impression that uBlock was obviated by Brave.

On the first day I played, I would always get stuck ante 5-6. The thing is, you need to build your strategy around the "X Mult" jokers in order to progress past that point, which often involves completely pivoting your strategy in the middle of the run.

I think the term they use online is "CMX": First get CHIPs-boosting jokers, then get MULT, then get X Mult.

You also have to have good economy and take advantage of interest or some other money-generating card. It's very much a win-more game where you need to get the steamroller going. I don't think I've ever beaten the game without a good money generator, either a money-generating joker or interest.
Turns out, nobody's quite figured out how to successfully charge for free shit, but it's moot when you can just burn venture capital for ten years until you get acquired and chopped for parts.

I am, unfortunately, looking at alternative browsers because of this. Firefox was the best fit. Big enough that they could reasonably keep up but not one of the corporate browsers that I have 0 trust in. It wasn't perfect but it was better than chrome for sure.

Browsers are like cars now. It is becoming impossible to buy a new(er) car and have your privacy respected, but it is unreasonable to expect any normal life (at least in most of the US) without using cars or browsers. So, things like cars and browsers should have strong protections because there is no avoiding them. Unfortunately that is obviously not the case. You should never be forced to sign an adversarial TOS to earn a living or live a normal life, but here we are. TOS that are effective without you even reading them, that say they own you, everything you type, everything you do, that change and bind you without your consent or knowledge and what are you going to do about it? Given any reasonable choice I will take it, but the reasonable choices are dwindling.

It’s not even that they have to “break in.” The government allows big tech companies to basically do whatever they want as long as big tech provides the government with an easy way to move forward with the parallel construction needed to bring case against literally anyone should officials be motivated to see that person imprisoned.

Poisson could probably explain it elegantly, but he's not here, just us.
Good.

Having personally experienced how leaks can damage the rollout of a product by depriving the creators of a chance to tell their own story, I have little to no sympathy for leakers.

Leakers damage internal trust and openness by forcing product leadership to create secretive silos (aka. tents) for product development, and by limiting how detailed strategy discussions can be.

And no, leakers are not necessarily whistleblowers; that's a common motte-and-bailey. In the vast majority of cases, they are not exposing harmful practices or creating space to hold leadership accountable. They're just gossiping.

Good riddance, and I hope this continues.
There have been larger changes in areas that the SEC could point their fingers at, to make things more uniform between IBM and Red Hat. Sales also had some changes on both sides.

For engineering almost no difference other than switching to Slack.
Oh boy. Do I need to tell you how to communicate?

That comment is making fun of their wording. Maybe extracting too much meaning from their wordplay? Maybe.

Afterwards, evidence is presented that they did not have to do this, which makes that point not so important, and even wrong.

The commenter was not lying, and they were correct about how masterfully deceiving that sequence of sentences are. They arrived at a wrong conclusion though.

Kindly point that out. Say, "hey, the numbers tell a different story, perhaps they didn't mean/need to make a wordplay there".

If they've been proven to be equivalent, how is that not a constructive quantum field theory in 4 dimensions? Constructive qft for realistic gauge fields is still referred to as an unsolved problem, so I guess there must be some sort of mismatch.
Companies are often brought in and told that nothing will change, and as long as they can pull their weight, this may be true. IBM seems a pretty diversified company, and there RedHat doing 5% of the total revenue may not be too bad. I don't know how well RedHat is doing commercially, but a few bad quarters could draw negative attention of the sort where upper-management wants to start messing with you, seek more synergy, efficiency, alignment. Being a much smaller small company within Verizon, having been left alone for a little while, we were then told that The Hug was coming. It did. We didn't grow to be their next billion dollar business unit (as no surprise to anyone in our little company), nor were we able to complement other products (ha! synergy!) and we were shuttered. At some point... engineering will notice.
It's really not. Let me know if you find any lenders that will let me pay off a mortgage with a capital loss.

At least in the startup narrative that circulates on HN, most early employees at a company with that kind of IPO would hope to have a lottery like level of financial windfall. Now their upside is if they manage to get luck a second time they get to offset their winnings? :/

>Try easier hands like Two Pair or Pair or High Card

I've always found that bigger hands like Flush, Full House, Straight are easier to work with because they get more chips and mult whenever they level up. I've only used small hands if i've leveled them up a ton with "burnt joker"

I suppose it depends on how you use your discards. If you debuff discards and hand size, then it is harder to get big hands.

Actually, this comment of mine was incorrect, or at least we don't have enough information to conclude this. The metric OpenAI are reporting is the total number of incorrect responses on SimpleQA (and they're being beaten by Claude Haiku on this metric...), which is a deceptive metric because it doesn't account for non-responses. A better metric would be the ratio of Incorrects to the total number of attempts.

What are you equating "analytics" to here? Consistency or whatever growth thing you're talking about seems like isn't really a thing on Bluesky since it's less algorithm based. And isn't really a stat... more of a marketing strategy.

Your response explains the other one, which I found just baffling.

I didn't say forking per request, good god. I meant running a process per core, or some ratio to the cores to achieve full server utilization. Limiting all of HTTP/2 requests per user to one core is unlikely to result in good feelings for anybody. If you let nginx fan them out to a couple cores it's going to work better.

These are not problems Java and C# have.

I wonder if anyone at old school Nvidia remembers if the NV1 card did quads to try to win a contract with Sega, or if the designers at Sega overtly wanted a card that would do quads. My suspicion is that this must've been shitty influence from Sega.

The Sega Saturn released in November 1994, with one of the most mind boggling bad hardware designs ever committed to a console. The thing had two CPUs, and unlike every console or 3d rendering machine to come later, actually rendered quads rather than tris. This is because you can more easily render lots of sprites for 2d games with quads (!!!). It was allegedly extremely difficult to program for such that its complexity stymied emulation for years after its release. I also read that Sega (which is actually a US company) had some sort of weird dynamic with its Japanese division such that the Japanese side of the company would design and ship hardware without consultation from the American side. Allegedly, the creator of Sonic the Hedgehog (Yuji Naka; who is currently in prison for securities fraud) would not pass the 3d engine used to build "Sonic Team's" first 3d game to the American team what was supposed to develop the main 3d Sonic game for the Saturn, and the main programmer for the Sonic 3d game engine in the US (Ofer Alon, who went to to found the company behind the 3d modeling software Z-brush) could not get a 3d sonic game to run on the Saturn because he tried writing the engine in the "slow" language "C", rather than 'ol fashioned assembly like Naka's team.

Whelp, that was my knowledge dump on 90s Sega!
I have often not been the recipient of good will.

I have then proceeded to earn it, and if necessary through the upliftment of myself and those would hate me.

And I’ve also given good will to those who wish to abuse it.

I’ve learned that for them, my good will was not what they needed.

They needed me to connect with their actual pain, and they operate on “respect me.”

Goodwill is a value, which is meant to uphold a better society.

If goodwill is not what’s needed to develop good faith, then it’s in the way of building a better society.

Today, the currency is attention. Goodwill is abused, so it should be used more sparingly.

If the other part of society respects respect, and respects strength, then that is what needs to be provided for them to have faith in your words.

Recently I've been asking myself, what do web browsers and the web look like in twenty years? I've been applying this to all "free" software (e.g., VSCode) released by the large tech companies who ultimately are incentivized by profit.

I really have no clue, but as far as I can see the answer is never better. More centralized, more bloated, more invasive, less choice, and less freedom.

It seems like you missed the point. Andrew Ng is not there to give you production grade models. He exists to deliver a proof of concept that needs refinements.

Nobody appreciates a grandstander. You're really treading on thin ice by attacking someone who has given so much to the AI community and asked for so little in return. Andrew Ng clearly does this because he enjoys it. You are here to self-promote and it looks bad on you.

I have no problems with Spotlight search. I use Alfred for the plug-ins, it's extensibility, workflows, clipboard history, everything else it can do.

Alfred search, in fact, really irritates me in that I've not found a good way to limit the search space. No, I really don't want files inside various node_modules folders filling up the search results. <Sigh> I'll try Spotlight, or go directory traversing, again. Anyone have a solution for that?

What I'm saying is, those farmers will be fine.
If we manage to read the next 2 questions on the list, or spend 30 seconds on a web search, one would find the link to Firefox's privacy policy which details the specific types of data they collect and how they use it, and has enumerated rights for users: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/privacy/firefox/

This is actually a much stronger guarantee than "we don't sell your data", which is not actually a strong guarantee at all. "Selling your data" is a nebulous term that means different things from person to person, and any company that doesn't literally exchange money for data could probably claim it with some level of credulity.
This is just a rude guess and not relevant to the actual reason

Ask HN: Interactive Demonstration of Video Codec
I remember a wonderful website that had multiple selectable layers of overlays to visualize aspects of video compression (for a specific codec, I think H.264, but I don't know).

It showed, among many things, motion vectors and macro blocks.

Does anyone know what website I'm looking for? This must have been 5+ years back.

I interpret this to mean we're in the ugly part of the old scaling law, where `ln(x)` for `x > $BIGNUMBER` starts to becoming punishing, not that the scaling law is in any way empirically refuted. Maybe someone can crunch the numbers and figure out if the benchmarks empirically validate the scaling law or not, relative to GPT-4o (assuming e.g. 200 million params vs 5T params).

I’d prefer this model if it were faster, but not at this cost. And so it is an odd release.

Still, with Deep Research and Web Search, ChatGpt seems far ahead of Claude. I like 3.7 a lot but I find OpenAI’s features more useful, even if it has for now complicated the UI a bit.

> First of all, it's going to take us 10 years to figure out how to use LLM's to their full productive potential.

LLMs will be gone in 10 years. At least in form we know with direct access. Everything moves so fast that there is no reason to think nothing better is coming.

BTW, what we've learned so far about LLMs will be outdated as well. Just me thinking. Like with 'thinking' models prev generation can be used to create dataset for the next one. It could be that we can find a way to convert trained LLM into something more efficient and flexible. Some sort of a graph probably. Which can be embedded into mobile robot's brain. Another way is 'just' to upgrade the hardware. But that is slow and has its limits.
The verb "to skype" means "to video chat with someone" to many many people, in the same way "to google" means to look something up online.

I don't even use skype, yet I say "I skyped my grandma on Sunday" and similar, using any number of other apps. It'll be a hard habit to break.
You can ask it to talk serious without any quips or follow on questions and it's just a more sycophantic chatbot with great interruption flow.

The realism is needed to unlock next-gen use-cases. Then you can trust it to be an easily adjustable medium on the fly while you do more things.
Europe has plenty of “Kangaroo courts” of their own and partnerships like five eyes encourages authorities to share information.

And vise versa with UK citizens or any western government.
