Cardiac served two purposes: beginners would have the opportunity to see what assembly language was and how it directed the computer to do things. Non-beginners would have an excellent opportunity to create e-Cardiac, which would let beginners work with digital files on a larger machine. Looking back, I can't think of too many things that provided such broad-range training in such a simple object.
I don’t trust those plans - it’s easy to forget to cancel it, and most products are simply hoping that you will forget. If I actually think I will want to cancel it, I will not sign up for services with this pattern. It’s a simple rule that saves a lot of mental overhead.

> hey use more than half of the things you mentioned.

You have to start over and make a cogent argument. I'm not following you. Zelensky is allowed to land in the US because the US allows it. Same with banking, defense, and anything else. If you declare your independence as a nation, you'll have to gain the same recognition, which will be very expensive. Or you can join another nation that has that recognition. Or you can stay a citizen of this nation. But you can't just declare your independence, and get to freeload off all our resources.

> but it was a threat -- pay up for X or else your wife stands to be raped.

That's not a threat, it's the law of the jungle. That's just the natural order of things, and it's why there's such a strong incentive to spend billions on defense. It's not even an abstract thing because we see it happening in real time.

> I understand what you're saying but I find it exhibits a sort of conversation that isn't adhering to a particularly strict decorum that merely mirroring using your own rhetoric creates.

The only thing I ask is you adhere to the HN site guidelines, which is we are here for debate. I called out your last reply not because it was offensive but because it degraded the thread by not providing anything to respond to, so it was thought-terminating. Our other thread got more substantive over replies, which is the ideal. If you have an argument, make it. Snark isn't needed, I've caught myself doing it too, so when you're called out on it just stop and move on.

I'm not bringing up your family to break decorum, I'm bringing it up as my actual argument for why you need to gladly pay taxes, and why you're not as independent as you think. The topic of this whole thread, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, is the case-in-point of that, so it's not even an abstract problem people face in the year 2025.

TBF, you could say something similar about all stocks remotely related to transportation the moment someone invents a teleporter.

I agree there's a difference there, but I don't think it has to do with the vulnerability of the asset.
No new headcount. Layoff the bottom 5% of the institution per year based on performance reviews and replace them with new hires. When someone leaves, replace every 3 people leaving with 1 new hire.

Your 2nd line is a unsupported claim, plus you paint the refugees as social security leeches. Can I counter-claim, that you're a worm-brained Russian troll (like RFK's worm, which can be the right-wingers' version of the "woke mind virus"), with a 10 minute old account?

Yeah, "discussion" seems a lot harder than downvoting idiotic claims. What is this "peace" you (or your -- I suspect -- other account ossobuco, his is the only comment about "peace" that's flagged to death) talk about if it's not "surrender"?

But hey, good news, there's lots of Trump lovers in here too, a comment about Trump loving Putin is also grey because of all the downvotes.

If the comparison was 4000 towers on Earth compared with 32 satellites in high orbits, and if we assume the same cost as standard radio towers (?), then I'd wonder which cost more - especially over a lifetime which includes servicing, etc.

For the moon, it depends on many factors that differ from Earth. The radio towers' structures probably need less material, at least.
Central planning did create ghost cities that persisted for years, and that is extremely inefficient, which is my point.

I use it on android to talk to my synology and a proxmox server at my house from anywhere.

It comes in handy from time to time. I run a "public" subsonic server but I don't have most of my own productions on it, but I can open VLC on android and go to a bookmarked share and play it all there.

Also stuff like NVR camera feeda I can look at over tailscale, too. No "cloud" storage needed.

I wish there was an easy reliable way to do this that didn't involve a for-profit; but until awful things happen I am fine using this for low-friction, trivial network access.
That's a good point. You also need consistency in the chirality on asteroids (also with earth).

If we find one asteroid with chirality that doesn't match earth, it's good evidence that self replication just happens spontaneously rather than being seeded.

If we find only one asteroid with one chiral molicule that does match earth, that supports panspermia very weakly: it still might just be random chance. But multiple matching molecules, on multiple asteroids, starts to seem like evidence for a common source.

On the other hand: If we find multiple molecules with matching chirality, on multiple asteroids, and none of them match with earth... well, we should probably start preparing for the invasion.
I also wondered about binning, so I pulled together how heavily Apple's Max chips were binned in shipping configurations.

M1 Max - 24 to 32 GPU cores

M2 Max - 30 to 38 GPU cores

M3 Max - 30 to 40 GPU cores

M4 Max - 32 to 40 GPU cores

I also looked up the announcement dates for the Max and the Ultra variant in each generation.

M1 Max - October 18, 2021

M1 Ultra - March 8, 2022

M2 Max - January 17, 2023

M2 Ultra - June 5, 2023

M3 Max - October 30, 2023

M3 Ultra - March 12, 2025

M4 Max - October 30, 2024

> My guess is that Apple developed this chip for their internal AI efforts

As good a guess as any, given the additional delay between the M3 Max and Ultra being made available to the public.
I have noticed that asking an LLM to output a confidence score and the reason for assigning the confidence score, works really well. These are tangential to the actual task, but still improve the quality.

I wouldn't depend on the numerical value of the confidence score itself though. There is no way for the LLM to caliberate its confidence score wrt. multiple invocations on different data. I have found this metric to be mostly useless.

It works fine as a proxy to induce some thinking though.
This arbitrage is even more profitable if you only buy the lucky numbers.
LLMs are unlikely to be path to AGI

At least here in Germany, half of sale proceedings of state-licensed lotteries go into social causes (our open source ecology germany e.v. managed to get several projects funded through this).

Kinda fun. Low chess expert player here. The square color one was harder, but I don't really think about square colors like that, maybe I should.

In my experience, once I replaced the 3rd party toner chip with brother's, it started working fine. Definitely something to do with the chip that brother checks...
Quantum research is nothing but a scam designed to extract grant money and pump share values higher until they can actually factor a number larger than 21 using Shor's algorithm. They did that in 2012. Everything since then has been smoke and mirrors. For as much as you want to call Bitcoin a scam, you're relying on an incredibly more obvious one in your hatred of it.

Additionally, El Salvador is only "dropping" bitcoin (officially) because they are being economically pressured by the IMF. So much for sovereignty for the little guy and democracy (he WAS elected, you know?).

I guarantee you that a quick scan of any of those companies' websites will not equip one with a useful general understanding of the naming scheme they use for their products, in the sense that one can see a product name and immediately know where it falls in their lineup and what workloads it's meant to handle. That is what "the fuck" I am talking about.
Any sort of political/PR fallout in any organization can be greatly limited or eliminated if you just explain a change as an "experiment" rather than something deliberate.

"We were just running an experiment; we do lots of those. We'll stop that particular experiment. No harm no foul" is much more palatable than "We thought we'd make that change. We will revert it. Sorry about that".

With the former people think: "Those guys are always experimenting with new stuff. With experimentations comes hiccups, but experimentation is generally good"

With the later; now people would wanna know more about your decision-making process. How and why that decision was made. What were the underlying reasons? What was your end goal with such a change? Do you actually have a plan or are you just stumbling in the dark?
Apple are working on the hard problems of making AI useful (call them “agents”), not AGI

1. Small models running locally with well-established tool interfaces (“app intents”)

2. Large models running in a bespoke cloud that can securely and quickly load all relevant tokens from a device before running inference

No AI lab is even close to what Apple is trying to deliver in the next ~12 months
What if you're doing bulk inference? The efficiency and throughput of bs=1 s=1 is truly abysmal.
What are the primary downsides of self-hosting this? The top issues that come to mind:

Surely you're using that thing as a laptop in a minority of cases though, looks like it's basically just specs you bought. That's fine, but if that's all you want then it seems like rather than trying to give a mac a reasonable go of it as opposed to whatever else, you were trying to instead explore a fundamental difference in how you value technology products, which is quite a different battle.
That makes sense. I’m just thinking statistically though. All we’ve proven is that some asteroids have R-amino acids. If it’s a 50/50 shot you could easily find a dozen R asteroids because it starts to look really bad for it being a 50/50 split.

I guess the reason it makes things more likely is because homochirality happens so aggressively that finding right handed molecules at all drastically reduces the odds of left.
The original source was Louis Rossmann, a YouTuber known both for advocating for Right to Repair and for producing a lot of videos in the rant/complaint genre.

I know a lot of people are fans of his content, but this is hardly the first time he's rushed out a video with unverified claims that later turned out to be false/exaggerated. He also has a habit of moving the goalposts when manufacturers actually try to do something good, like when he continued to complain about Apple after they introduced their hardware repair program with loaner equipment.

He's very confident in his videos and presents a calm and collected demeanor, but his claims and content feel like they're scraped from the angry parts of social media. Take with a grain of salt.
Nice. Hard to tell whether it's really on a par with o1 or R1, but it's definitely very impressive for a 32B model.
Especially for the command line and a browser which are primarily rendering text, pixel density matters so much! Why look at pixelated text when you can have print-quality crisp text? I never want to go back to low pixel density displays!

I had an XPS 15 with 4k display in 2016, yet in 2025 it’s somehow difficult to find a laptop with that pixel density?

I wonder the same with phones actually, my Nexus 6P from 2015 (10 years ago!) had an amazing 518 ppi display. When the modem died I got a Pixel 2 which had only 441 ppi, and the display was a really noticeable downgrade, text looked significantly uglier, I could see the pixels and hinting artifacts again. I expected high pixel densities to become mainstream to the point where every screen has a density at the limit of what the human eye can perceive, yet here we are 10 years later, and Google’s flagship phones have only 495/486 ppi, worse than the Nexus 6P!

This isn't responsive to what I wrote:

> and yielding a bespoke bignum format is just as unusable as simply returning whatever's encoded in CBOR. How would I add two such values together? How would I display it? This is what bignum libraries are for.

I know this is what you've been getting at. Maybe I've been unclear about why this isn't useful, but here are the main points:

- Without bignum functionality, your data structure doesn't provide any more functionality than memcpy. How do I apply the base? How do I apply the exponent? How would I add two of them together? This may as well just be a `char *`.

- Speaking of just being a `char *`, CBOR's bignums are just that, so you'd just call `mpz_init_set_str` on whatever is in the buffer (zero terminate it in a different buffer, I guess, whatever). Parsing into your struct here is counterproductive.

- Even the minimal functionality you're proposing here is added bloat to every application that doesn't care about bignums and wants to ignore the tag (probably almost all applications). Ameliorating this requires conditional compilation.

> In practice many bignums are just left as is.

I'd believe this; I'd also believe there's very little real need for them generally. This is an argument for not including them in a data serialization format.

> By the way, sscanf is fine here

The problem with sscanf isn't that it can never be safe, it's that if you're not safe every time you blow everything up. It's better to just not use it.
It's a win for me and pretty much everyone I know. We can finally start buying Russian gas again and doing business with them. This means our bills will drop after they've doubled over the past three years. Not to mention, we won't have to worry about getting dragged into a nuclear war.

Not a single person I know is willing to sacrifice their livelihood to defend Ukraine's borders. What an absurd idea.
> and most state income taxes aren't as progressive as the ones in CA.

That's why poor wind up paying more in flat tax states, it is simply WAI.

Marginal rates don't matter as much as how much you actually pay. On paper, CA has a top rate of 12.3%...on income over 720k dollars. It exists, but it doesn't seem like a thing we should ponder too much.

States only have so much power in setting tax rates, given that people are somewhat mobile. California being overpopulated for so long gave them some latitude here, but honestly income inequality isn't going to be handled at any level below federal.

But the point about Europe is right, but only in the sense that Europeans don't pay nearly as much in income taxes as most Americans think they do.
I probably am misremembering then and just use the dean as a generalized title. This was almost 13 years ago. This person was definitely in charge of curriculum, I remember that much, so probably not the dean. Thanks for correcting my misuse of the word.
Understood.

I copy over all the previous months budget amounts and tweak it to match the current paycheck, if it's different. And frankly don't care too much if it's a few dollars off.

I do this in a spreadsheet. I had written an app for budgeting but it was too much hassle keeping it up to date. New versions of Mac OS would break it in subtle ways and wasn't worth the effort of all the bug fixes.

Phew--I can keep my waxed floss.
NOAA just fired hundreds of weather forecasters. World class ones, literally some of the best meteorologists in the world. And they knew how to interact with NOAA's systems to gather data and publish forecasts, issue realtime watches and warnings, and a thousand other things. Realtime forecasts are _vital_ to hundreds of different industries and save thousands of lives a year, and part of that is because they are able to quickly issue new forecasts when the situation changes. We get tornado warnings, fire forecasts, tsunami warnings, and a whole bunch else with enough time to get to safety because of these extremely talented folks.

These people are irreplaceable. And I know one of these forecasters very well, he's an old friend of mine. He is done with the federal government; even if they offer him his job back he's not going back, because his trust that his job as a meteorologist was safe is smashed to pieces. That's irreparable harm.

While this is a good recommendation, inkjet is a poor technology for most people's needs.

You want inkjet if you print a lot, at least a few pages every two weeks.

If you only need to print once every three months, you are going to hate inkjet, even with refillable tanks. Especially with refillable tanks. Disuse clogs up the head, which takes a lot of ink to clear.

Inkjet is only worth it if you use the hell out of it. You should only get a tank printer if you expect to actually use that much ink in less than a year.

If you want a printer that does nothing other than print your resume and tax returns- and you want it to just work every time- you want laser. You can even refill the toner if you really want. You shouldn't but you can.
Computer Science curriculum is often different from the practice of software development or "software engineering," in practice, which academic-learning departments may consider too-vocational and to the detriment of their students.

Some programs have had to supplement their CS-curriculum with courses incorporating instruction on software engineering practices (e.g. version control). The "AI" being sold today isn't going to replace these practices.

What finally forced me to switch to a 3rd party for SMTP (outgoing) was a blocklist (UCEPROTECT I think) that required you to pay to be removed and my mother-in-law's email provider (AT&T) used it. My wife couldn't email her mom which was a no-go.
Ok, running this by you one more time. There is a type called "int" in the language. This is a 63-bit signed integer on 64-bit machines, and a 31-bit integer on 32-bit machines. It is stored in 64 bits (or 32), but it's a 63-bit signed integer, because one of the bits is used in the runtime.
There is also a 64 bit integer, called "Int64". It has 64 bits, which is why I call it a 64-bit integer rather than a 63-bit integer. An "int" is a 63-bit integer, which is why I call it a 63-bit integer rather than a 64-bit integer.
There are still millions (probably hundreds of millions) of consumer grade printers out there. That is a lot of money for the refill makers to work with.
Fair, but it's not like other CPU/GPU manufacturer naming schemes give you that either. At least Apple's scheme clearly tells you e.g. "previous arch but more compute".
