This need some clarification.Not all CRP should be put in one bucket.

Out of hospital/unwitnessed arrests - mortality is bad.

In hospital/witnessed arrests - CRP mortality was better.

Downtime (ie time without perfusion makes a difference) the longer it is - the worse the outcome. The difference between long and short is minutes.

That doesn't mean CRP isn't worth trying. The hard part is making sure families understand when futility begins. Some families never get there.
This was very unclear in the article - typically artificial hearts have external pumps and motors, the internal component is basically a fancy valve to manage flow/oxygenation correctly. But this one has an internal pump and motor, like a real heart, but with an external battery pack. (The battery currently only lasts four hours...I am too absent-minded to be trusted with this!)

This article was a bit more clear: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-03-12/sydney-hospital-artif...
I don't know where GP is, but in Canada there are certain corporate obligations that come with doing a layoff which companies try to skirt around by staggering their layoffs over some period of time rather than letting everyone go at once.
One more vote for Mistral for local models. The 7B model is extremely fast and still good enough for many prompts.
Maybe finding slights and holding grudges is a tendency that post interview reference checking suggested and an intent based on perceived cultural fit was reasonably abandoned.

From the limited testing I've done, Gemma 3 27B appears to be an incredibly strong model. But I'm not seeing the same performance in Ollama as I'm seeing on aistudio.google.com. So, I'd recommend trying it from the source before you draw any conclusions.

One of the downsides of open models is that there are a gazillion little parameters at inference time (sampling strategy, prompt template, etc.) that can easily impair a model's performance. It takes some time for the community to iron out the wrinkles.
>It's harmful in that there exists a significant and vocal subset of users who does not wish to see that content or does not wish their children to do so

It's hard to think of a scenario where there's a child technical enough to run Gemma 3 locally but somehow unable to access any other written erotica. Project Gutenberg is full of erotic textual content and I haven't heard of anyone calling for that to be banned.

>Then there are the non-chat-gpt-app use cases (like customer support chatbots, automatic summarization etc), for which unprompted erotica is highly inappropriate. Those are the "business travelers" of AI, not the first thing one thinks of when talking about who uses AI models, but extremely important nonetheless.

And how many of these are going to be using Gemma, when Gemini over the API is cheaper, faster and easier to use?
To me the functional style is much more easy to parse as well. Maybe the lesson is that familiarity can be highly subjective.

I for example prefer a well chosen one-liner list comprehension in python over a loop with temporary variables and nested if statements most of the time. That is because usually people who use the list comprehension do not program it with side effects, so I know this block of code, once understood stands for itself.

The same is true for the builder style code. I just need to know what each step does and I know what comes out in the end. I even know that the object that was set up might become relevant later.

With the traditional imperative style that introduces intermediate variables I might infer that those are just temporary, but I can't be sure until I read on, keeping those variables in my head. Leaving me in the end with many more possible ways future code could play out. The intermediate variables have the benefit of clarifying steps, but you can have that with a builder pattern too if the interface is well-chosen (or if you add comments).

This is why in an imperative style variables that are never used should be marked (e.g. one convention is a underscore-prefix like _temporaryvalue — a language like Rust would even enforce this via compiler). But guess what: to a person unfamilar with that convention this increases mental complexity ("What is that weird name?"), while it factually should reduce it ("I don't have to keep that variable in the brain head as it won't matter in the future").

In the end many things boil down to familiarity. For example in electronics many people prefer to write a 4.7 kΩ as 4k7 instead, as it prevents you from accidentally overlooking the decimal point and making an accidental off-by-a-magnitude-error. This was particularly important in the golden age of the photocopier as you can imagine. However show that to a beginner and they will wonder what that is supposed to mean. Familiarity is subjective and every expert was once a beginner coming from a different world, where different things are familiar.

Something being familiar to a beginner (or someone who learned a particular way of doing X) is valuable, but it is not necessarily an objective measure of how well suited that representation is for a particular task.

if your concern is keeping your family fed, consider the last time you had an extended outage. then run the numbers

if it was recent, such as living in certain parts of texas, you should be keeping large amounts of stable water for each person for at least a week (gallon jugs + water filter pens), fuel/burner/pot, rice/beans/etc in a water sealed emergency kit

if it was a long time ago, you should be keeping enough water, vitamins, and high density calorie bricks for 96 hours

it'd be nice to have fresh food, but it's way more practical and reliable to have sustenance stored in a closet somewhere

for a family of four, premade emergency kits for 7 days will run you about $150, and youll need about 25 gallons of water - <$25

$175 or a $1000 battery + $25 for water. idk choice is easy

Thanks again, very interesting.

One unexpected (to me) use-case appeared not long ago when I found myself without internet but wanting to fix some non-standard Linux configuration issue. As a Windows guy I tend to web search such things, but local LLM to the rescue!

Even smaller models like Gemma 2 9B has enough compressed knowledge that it managed to help me quickly solve my issue.

This got me thinking how such smaller, but very capable models might be a game-changer in communities where internet might not be available or too expensive for continuous use. It's almost like having a portion of the internet in a box, just add electricity.
Metallic as an adjective, behaving like a metal - due to the insane pressures. Different usage of the word "metal".
TBH, I REALLY like the tiny models. Like smollm2.

Also lobotomized LLMs ("abliterated") can be a lot of fun.
I was just expanding on how ICE seems to implement its "one way to enforce the law".

They catch and detain people. Sometimes, some of the people with jobs, homes, families —something to lose— get bail after a hearing, but they only account for ~50% of ICE detainees. When you also factor that the average ICE detention is over 50 days, many of the people who attain bail, are only doing so after many weeks in prison.

I'm not saying you agree with that, but you seemed to be [at least partially] rebutting the previous comment. I think this case, and many like it could be dealt with that don't involve being kidnapped at the border. Either just rebuffing their entry, or trusting them enough and allowing them to return home via an internal airport if they already have a return ticket.

Or even just trusting people until they've committed a crime. Many people with border issues are merely suspected that they might be intending to work, intending to stay.
I can’t find the link now, but that chap who died a couple of years ago after living most of his life in an iron lung, had a similar story of being transported home on the back of a flatbed truck with a generator running, if the power went out he suffocated. His mother slept by his bed and in the case of a power cut had to manually help him breathe until the power returned.

An amazing man and amazing he made it so far in life.

I agree and people generally build off of other people's work. It being visual or technical. Here it's hard to deny that visually it was "inspired" by the other project. To me, it would be completely fine if you're upfront about it. For example "I saw this project (link) but didn't like how the recommendation system worked so I built a better one (new link)".
Hi mcsniff,
Thanks for your feedback.

The badges are both from the official communication and they seem to have roughly the same resolution, but I do agree that they are sized differently.

About the white text that's a good point lol. We wanted something light, what would you recommend to stay in this palette ?

Finally, regarding ads, we totally understand the repulsion that one might have towards ads, but in this case there are only a couple banners at the bottom of 3 pages. We made sure that they do not bother the user in any way. No videos to watch, no ads that would cover the entire screen, only two little banners at the very bottom.

Thanks again :)

This is not a principled argument.

This is the actions people I know are taking to manage investments.

Look - I can’t help you if you wish to believe something.

That’s an issue of faith.

I have no idea why you believe that this is ex post facto reasoning.

Tariffs cause recessions, it’s not even correlation.

Let me elaborate - the moment Trump was elected, I knew that he was going to impose tariffs, and that it was going to tank the US economy.

If you want logic, I can debate. If this is a matter of faith and belief that this is some error on my part and that no one can know things are causative - then that’s a matter of faith and religion.

Cursor's current business model produces a fundamental conflict between the well-being of the user and the financial well-being of the company. We're starting to see these cracks form as LLM providers are relying on scaling through inference-time compute.

Cursor has been trying to do things to reduce the costs of inference, especially through context pruning. For instance, if you "attach" files to a conversation, Cursor no longer stuffs the code from those files into the prompt. Instead, it'll run function calls to open those files and read bits and pieces of the code until the model feels it has enough information. This seems like a perfectly reasonable strategy until you realize you cannot do the same thing with reasoning models, if you're limiting the reasoning to just the initial prompt.

If you prune out context from the initial prompt, instead of reasoning on richer context, the llm reasons only on the prompt itself (w/ no access to the attached files). After the thinking process, Cursor runs function calls to retrieve more context, which entirely defeats the point of "thinking" and induces the model to create incoherent plans and speculative edits in its thinking process, thus explaining Claude's bizarre over-editing behavior. I suspect this is why so many Cursor users are complaining about Claude 3.7.

On top of this, Cursor has every incentive to keep the thinking effort for both o3-mini and Claude 3.7 to the very minimum so as to reduce server load.

Cursor is being hailed as one of the greatest SAAS growth stories but their $20/mo all-you-can-eat business model puts them in such a bad place.

If pressed I would have predicted delulu Atlantacist who can't eat crow for domestic politics would try to virtue signal some sort of defiant solidarity, even though on paper their ability to assist Canada is nothing burger tier.

One thing I absolutely don't understand about telecom security is how, in 2025, we're still using pre-shared keys in our mobile phone standards.

RSA and Diffie Hellman[1] have existed for decades, so have CA systems, yet SIM cards are still provisioned with a pre-shared key that only the card and the operator knows, and all further authentication and encryption is based on that key[2]. If the operator is ever hacked and the keys are stolen, there's nothing you can do.

To make things even worse, those keys have to be sent to the operator by the SIM card manufacturer (often a company based in a different country and hence subject to demands of foreign governments), so there are certainly opportunities to hack these companies and/or steal the keys in transit.

To me, this absolutely feels like a NOBUS vulnerability, if the SIM manufacturers and/or core network equipment vendors are in cahoots with the NSA and let the NSA take those keys, they can potentially listen in on all mobile phone traffic in the world.

[1] I'm aware that those algorithms are not considered best practices any more and that elliptic curves would be a better idea, but better RSA than what we have now.

How does the current state of Cursor agentic workflow compare to Windsurf Editor?

I've been using Windsurf since it was released, and back then, it was so ahead of Cursor it's not even funny. Windsurf feels like it's trained on good programming practices (check usage of the function in other parts of the project for consistency, double checking for errors after changes made, etc). It's also surprisingly fast (it can "search" the 5k files codebase in, like, 2 seconds. It even asked me once to copy and paste output from Chrome DevTools because it suspected that my interpretation of the result was not accurate (and it was right).

The only thing I truly wish is to have the same experience with locally running models. Perhaps Mac Studio 512GB will deliver :)
I think the point raised by GP is about distribution of finite resources for maximum benefit. E.g. do we spend a large amount of money to extend someone's life by 2 years if we could spend the same money to save 10 lives elsewhere?
So much corporate branding has gone flat, boring and sterile. There's also guaranteed to be a backlash at some point, with flashy logos and bright colours. It's a pretty good way to stand out at least. Take Mozilla, they went bland, boring, now they're adding a "fun" ASCII lizard. Just embrace the old half-ugly red Godzilla-like lizard, it's fun, distinct, has a history and it's perfectly fine.

We lost pretty much all of the playfulness of the late 90s, early 2000s as companies are playing it increasingly safe. I'd love to see some of it come back, but also businesses segment more. There's no reason a toy store should have the same bland corporate identity as a bank, nor should an investment firma adopt the identity of a record company (or vice versa).
I would assume the kind of people who need a replacement heart are already on beta-blocker drugs, which clamp the peak heart-rate down significantly, so their body would already be used to a very limited heart-rate range.

How do you even compare those two things? And how do you separate technology from medicine? This statement seems like pure nonsense, hinging on a slippery definition of "technology" that in some contexts means "consumer gizmos," other contexts means "computers," and in yet other contexts means "Civilization tech tree."

> which hinged on your definition of what the word "inevitable" means is the narrowest possible interpretation of my statement.

My argument does not hinge upon the definition of the word inevitable. You originally said "I mean, I can't think of a time a high profile project written in a lower level representation got ported to a higher level language."

I gave a relatively thorough accounting of why you've observed this, and why it doesn't indicate what you believe it to indicate here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43339297

Instead of addressing the substance of the argument you focused on this introductory sentence: "I'd like to address your larger point which seems to be that all greenfield projects are necessarily best suited to low level languages."

Regardless of how narrowly or widely you want me to interpret your stance, my point is that the data you're using to form your opinion (rewrites from higher to lower level languages) does not support any variation of your argument. You "can't think of a time a high profile project written in a lower level representation got ported to a higher level language" because developers tend to be more hesitant about reaching for lower level languages (due to the higher barrier to entry), and therefore are less likely to misuse them in the wrong problem domain.
I don't think it's unreasonable to find accents from places you don't live hard to understand. A lot of accents completely shift the vowel sounds. It can take a lot of familiarisation to start to understand what each sound means. Some people find this easier than others.

India is a huge country with a strong local tradition of speaking English. That means Indian English has a lot of local quirks that someone from outside the country wouldn't know.

I imagine everyone who speaks English struggles to understand strong accents that have significant shifts from their local one. I work with lots of French people speaking English, and even after years of daily conversations it can still be a struggle to understand them. I've got better over time, but it's not nearly as straightforward as listening to a native speaker.

You're essentially saying you don't believe the OP actually struggles to understand some accents. Is that really an outlandish claim?

More than you think, particularly outside the US.

Companies and government organizations who have sensitive data are still unwilling to use these models over any API they don't host themselves.

I work in this space in the EU, and this is absolutely a problem.
At the end of the day it doesn't matter how good it its, it has no system prompt which means no steerability, a sliding window for incredibly slow inference compared to similar sized models because it's too niche and most inference systems have high overhead implementations of it, and Google's psychotic instruct tuning that made Gemma 2 an inconsistent and unreliable glass cannon.

I mean hell, even Mistral added system prompts in their last release, Google are the only ones that don't seem to bother with it by now.
Hi mindwork,

I didn't know about this app, it sounds interesting and is probably useful in some cases.

Regarding Pushmi, it's pretty simple. I tend to slouch so I always appreciate when someone tells me "fix your posture". That's how I came up with Pushmi. It's this person, reminding you of good/healthy habits, with you, everyday. So in my case, this was what I needed.

The reason you're struggling to understand is that you're thinking about this logically.

Adult content is obviously freely available to any child or adult with minimum technical skills. What makes LLMs different is that it's "the new thing" and people respond differently to "the new thing".

As someone doing research in physics, I’ve noticed this usage before. It seems fairly frequent outside CS [EDIT: and as the sibling comment says, specifically in numerical computing]. From what I’ve gathered, for them ‘code’ has become a count noun, such that ‘a code’ means something like ‘a piece of code’ or even ‘a program’, and the plural ‘codes’ follows from that.
I've found tools like Cursor useful for prototyping and MVP development. However, as the codebase grows, they struggle. It's likely due to larger files or an increased number of them filling up the context window, leading to coherence issues. What once gave you a speed boost now starts to work against you. In such cases, manually selecting relevant files or snippets from them yields better results, but at that point it's not much different from using the web interface to something like Claude.
