Indeed classic: talking about the form of my comment instead of the content it addresses: that many ISP are incomplete because of CGNAT and do not provide real internet access (ie, being able to receive connections to tcp ports). These incomplete ISP without ability to participate in the internet should not be called ISP because of this lack. Your objection to the term itself is inconsequential. Do you deny the original posts claims? Is this just insult time?

As for incorrect? How so? Perhaps "web service providers" is a bit glib and incomplete too, but it gets to the core of the issue here: ISP not providing internet service and only providing a limited subset. if the 'web' works that's all that really matters for advertising and getting people to pay them. Meanwhile most people aren't even aware of what they're missing and their inability to participate in the internet; but they, and especially their kids', educations are stunted by the lack of being able to participate, etc. And all of society is worse for it.
It’s been twenty years so my opinion is skewed and my memory is quite faded, however, I’ve got opinions on the guide and class in general.

The main thing is there are no surprises or tricks. The exams are straightforward and EXHAUSTIVE. I do all the assigned homework twice. Once when we cover the material and again before the exam. Let’s hope that strategy pays off again.

This was a my favorite book last year. Friend and I went on a hike across Isle Royale and while we skipped the area that is inhabited by beavers they had the book at the gift shop and it sounded pretty interesting.

REALLY good book and made me think very differently about beavers. Highly recommend it!

Edit: The section of the book dedicated to European beavers is much smaller than the American counterpart, in case that matters. I do think the coverage was good on both sides though.
Quora has a great math and physics community, along with other long tail topics you rarely see discussed anywhere else on the internet. Oh sure, they have political topics as well, but you already know that's going to be a cesspool. Hardly surprising.

Not OP, but I have found MathAcademy to be infinitely better. I really liked the assessment portion which levels you and gives you an idea of where you are are at the present. As someone who graduated with an engineering degree a while ago, there were things I realized I didn’t know as well as I thought I did and I probably would not have prompted an LLM to review.
I'm working on an alternative Iceberg client to work better in write heavy use cases. Instead of many smaller files it writes on the same file until it's 1mb in size but it gives it a new name. Then I update the manifest to the new filename and checksum. I keep old files on disk for 60 seconds to allow pending queries. I'm also working on auto compaction, when I have ten 1mb files I compact them, same with ten 10mb files, etc...

I feel like this could be a game changer for the ecosystem. It's more cpu and network heavy for writes but the reads are always fast. And the writes are still faster than pyiceberg.

I want to hear opinions or how this could never work.
This is Commons, not a Wikipedia article. This image is incorrect, has been removed from the enwiki article, and is in fact explicitly tagged with a disputed factual accuracy notice.

Dunning-Kruger described a relationship between people's subjective opinion of their skill, and their performance on a test. They find the subjective curve is less steep than the objective one (low performers believe they are closer to the center than they really are, and so do top performers). There's no "peak of stupid", or anything else on that graph.

Repeating vague associations you've seen on the Internet before is how misinformation spreads.
Table buckets are currently quite hard to use for a lot of use cases as they _only_ support primitive types. No nested types.

hopefully both gccgo and any llvm backed implementations eventually mature to production grade. I think the thing that'll hold them back is that the toolchain is (by definition) completely different. 'go build .' is pretty nice.

the biggest value they bring is that unclear parts of the specification=be brought to light and clarified.

My parent's neighbours, they're not my parents' goats (they only have a few to keep their property clean).

The neighbours have a big piece of land and electrifying the fences would be quite expensive, the guard dogs seem to be doing their jobs quite well, no attacks since then.
What matters is quantity of deep sleep and REM sleep.

REM sleep seems to be related to archiving of events( memory formation ) while lack of deep sleep affects the brain itself.

Pickup a smartwatch and track the sleep stages with Apple watch being the most accurate.

One question I have is, how exactly does it record and what are the boundaries of the recording?

For example does it only record the userland execution of a single process, or does it have broader boundaries like including kernel code and/or execution of multiple processes? How does it handle shared memory regions that may be modified outside of the recording?

It was High Performance SQLite:

https://highperformancesqlite.com/

The course content could all be learned from the excellent SQLite docs, and in greater detail. However, I think paying the $200 was worth it for me, since the course led me through a structured learning path, this is my "year of structured learning", after all. I had some minor complaints, but in the end I learned a ton and feel empowered because of it. I'd like to take his Postgres course too but the price is too high for me.
That sounds good (it's what I'd do) but doesn't seem to be related to what I'm commenting on.
> if the manager is thinking about and getting involved in architecture after the PR is written it does suggest something has gone wrong. If there are architectural considerations then it is good to discuss them with the coder before they start developing.

That's the ideal yes. The problem with poor design/architecture is that it's never actually architected and designed. It just happens as part of a process where someone codes something without actually considering this to be a "design" (something that will affect future code, and solidify over time).

So the job of whoever it is (senior developer, manager, colleague, ...) is to point out the poor design. The hope then is that it can be fixed before it is merged AND that next time there will be no "accidental design".
> XMPP doesn't support all these (and future) content types, and it's difficult to ensure an XMPP client is rendering them appropriately. As such we've decided to sunset the XMPP Chat API.

This is such a lame excuse, and reveals how much they're control freaks. One of the main points of an open, federated protocol is that people can choose clients that behave the way they want and render things the way they want. "Oooohhh, we can't guarantee with an iron fist that our stupid 'stickers' render correctly on all clients, therefore we can't deal with it!"

This same mentality infests the web, and is why companies insist on slathering JavaScript into everything to force browsers to render their pages exactly as designed, rather than just letting the user agent serve the user's needs.

It's possible, I have no idea how Bitdefender rates websites. But when I first checked urlvoid, the site had been scanned months ago and had more than 3 or 4 positive hits. It's a WordPress site, so it isn't out of the realm of possibility it was hacked and something malicious was dropped in that was later cleaned up.
Bit of a tangent, but I've always wondered why the United States has a very clear dividing line between the populated east and relatively empty west. It's really visible in the first map you shared. Is there a historical reason behind that line? Or some geographical boundary?

Ask HN: What makes a good ideas person?
Maybe the question would be more interesting in the opposite, what makes a bad ideas person, but I'm definitely more of an execution person. There's obviously something funny about this wording but: I care much more about how we're going to do something then what we're going to do. I care much more about seeing a project get completed than having a bunch of ideas for things. And anytime I hear a person self-identify as an ideas person, I'm always suss.

So self-identified ideas people(or people who value them): What do I not know about your contributions? How do I tell the difference between a good ideas person or a bad ideas person?

Almost all of the emails being sent from these services are transactional, so we would see noticeable abandoned user activities (i.e. confirmations, 2FA) or complaints from active users about not receiving emails.

We did have an issue delivering to a specific provider, but that was resolved by updating our DKIM with a more robust key length.
I disagree, because I’ve lived it and I know how it goes.

Sure, I did not want to be overly dismissive; I've worked in the space and most options suck and/or are fairly expensive for what they are, so any decent to good OSS option would be really appreciated. However, these points would make for a hard sell.

Ubiquiti was founded by some Apple employees after they closed their Airport division.
I sincerely doubt they want to go through the trouble of collaborating with a company that was too greedy to keep investing in their network hardware.

Ubiquiti is decently priced, especially for niche hardware, unlike Apple. Fundamentally they diverge on the way to do things...

> You say that as if it’s impossible to write clear code.

not the parent, but i feel their usage of the word “code” was in error. i don’t care about how, i care about what.

the HCL is purely a defintion/description of what the infrastructure looks like. what resources will be created? that is all it is. i want that. to define the infra and move on. i don’t want low level control of every minutia to do with infrastructure. i want to read a config file and just know what resources will exist in the account. wanna know every resource that exists? `terraform state list` … job done. no reading code required.

HCL/terraform is to define my cloud resources, not to control them or their creation. if i want control, then i need to whip out some go/python.

that’s my vibe on CDK libraries/platform APIs versus terraform.

If you want, you could even use that opportunity for some research into AI bias: Are e.g. players with commonly female-interpreted names more or less often suspected of being Mafia than others, and how does the name the AI is given influence its playstyle?

Stuff along those lines, could be interesting :)

It has! More impressively, it's done so while Vehicle Miles Travelled has gone up as well.

But it feels like we're reaching a point where we're trying to catch a falling knife, where every safety improvement is _obviously_ worth it, even as the easy gains have gone away. We've also (almost) completely ignored the safety of everyone outside of the vehicle in our arms race to protect occupants.

>VW should investigate why their cars are that expensive.

Investigate what exactly? This is a known accounting fact.

Where do you think the money comes from that gets every German VW factory worker 30+ vacation days per year, paid sick days whenever they don't feel like coming to work, great pension plans, inflation beating Yearly raises, unions that keep unproductive people from getting fired and best severance packages in the industry in case they do.

All those perks they have get priced into the final product. You can't manufacture cheap commodity goods while treating your workers so lavishly when competing with Asia and how they treat their manufacturing labor.

This was economically feasible when European cars had no foreign competition in terms of quality and technology, but this is not the case anymore and something will have to give.
Good luck! You can do it! I started doing statistics classes three years ago when I was 45, continued doing a MSc degree, which I finished successfully a few months ago. I am now looking into doing a PhD. This is more fun than I ever imagined (fair enough: I was a teenager when imagining it).
We are also planning to develop a distributed tracing platform, similar to Jaeger and OpenTelemetry, that continuously records the execution of many distributed processes (e.g. micro-services).

Unlike the existing platforms, which capture only message flows and require you to make educated guesses when some anomaly is observed, our system will let you accurately replay the processing code for each message to quickly identify the root cause for the anomaly.

This would rely on our ability to jump to the specific moment in time when a certain incoming message starts being processed. This moment can be identified either by a log line with a specific format or by a call to some special tracking function (e.g. track_incoming_message(request_id)).

For the system languages, the RR[1] recordings try to be practical by capturing only the non-deterministic events in the program execution. You can pair this with a ring buffer that discards the data after a certain retention period.

For the scripting languages(or any implementation using the db-like traces) we might add some advanced record filtering options.

(But maybe we are misunderstanding the question?)

I’ve heard this described as talking in “Neuralese”. It seems plausible that this will be the most dense language for model-internal dialog (or presumably inter-LLM dialog assuming they share the same weights).

You will penalize this inasmuch as your alignment strategy depends on Deliberative Alignment. But at some point I assume that will come with a real capability cost as Neuralese can be more conceptually dense.
Especially since the trace files are in .json. [0]

I think you probably need to change the way this is done to produce structured data... most llms will separate chain of thought and what they want to say and what actions they want to take as yaml or json if you ask them to and probably will fix a lot of the really dumb reveals. You probably need to return structured data to the llms as well, most of them can handle parsing it in a reasonable way if you're consistent and explain the spec in the prompt.

Often the regulations are the start of the problem.

They intentionally set things up to push the poorest and most vulnerable 200k people into homelessness.
