There are LTE-M and NB-IoT for low power IoT on 4G. NB-IoT is for low bandwidth and super low power, LTE-M is for regular data but limited bandwidth. I think NB-IoT needs new gear on towers while LTE-M uses existing LTE. NB-IoT is lower power and wider coverage than GSM.
>Imagine that you have some semi-trusted software and because you don't want to take any risks, you run in nested VMs three layers deep. The software has some plausible excuse to require access to the Bluetooth (perhaps it's a beacon demo?) so you grant an exception. You're not happy with the result (the beacon demo does not work as promised?), you remove the software and you also reset all three VM layers for good measure, nice. Unfortunately the guest the malware installed on the ESP when it has access is still there. Yes, undocumented access to your own subdevices can be a really bad thing, in particular when persistence is in the picture.

There are approximately 0 people who have the type of setup you described. Moreover, the chipset in question is only used in IOT devices, so it can't even be used in the way you described. Finally, does the chipset even have writeable memory? Or is it an exploit that only persists until the next reset?

I'm not really sure if I can agree on stability. For all its warts and flaws, you can largely still write React 18.x the same way you wrote React 0.x. There's many new features and fancy tools in your pocket, but underneath it all, you can take the knowledge you had of 0.x and go straight to writing 18.x. It might not be whatever is the current vogue best practices, but it will work. While React has had many breaking changes over the years, I would argue that all of them are fairly minor, whereas Vue, Angular and now Svelte have introduced big breaking changes. Stability wise I feel like React comes out on top in that regard.

I do agree that Vue is clearly the better paradigm, but unfortunately it's still very much lagging behind React in terms of adoption. I think big breaking changes might have a considerable part in that, it's hard to sell that upwards.

I've only ever seen Redis used in two scenarios: storing ephemeral cache data to horizontally scale Django applications and for ephemeral job processing where the metadata about the job was worthless.

I reevaluated it for a job processing context a couple of years ago and opted for websockets instead because what I really needed was something that outlived an HTTP timeout.

I've never actually seen it used in a case where it wasn't an architecture smell. The codebase itself is pretty clean and the ideas it has are good, but the idea of externalizing datastructures like that just doesn't seem that useful if you're building something correctly.
When people starting building tools like this to analyze media coverage of historic events, it will be a game changer.

I'm also not really sure what's going on with the hype wave atm (people like having things to hype?) since MCP has also been around for a bit, seems like a bit of a meme.

IMO, the main value (as an agent / AI developer) that you get from MCP is another style of tool repository. Similar to how it's nice to have pre-made tools (eg Composio), MCP servers are another repo of tools to pull from (you just need to add MCP client functionality to your agent loop). So if a ton of energy is going into building MCP servers, might as well add MCP client support so that you can take advantage of the additional tools.

This isn't some spaghetti ERP on Excel or some other blatant overuse of the application. This is tagging some lines on a CSV file to categorize expenses. A few filters, a few formulas, create a summary sheet with SUMIFS or just create a pivot table, done.

Evaluating the problem tells you how complex the solution needs to be. This problem of categorizing basic financial transactions is pretty basic and I'd take the basic approach every time.

Depending on the quality of your audio equipment, some disks (Blu-Rays mainly) are a better experience audio-wise than streaming. So there is a point to some physical media beyond sentimentality, at least until streaming services up their audio game.

And I don't even consider myself an audiophile or feel a need to get snobby about it; it's just when I watched a movie on UHD Blu-Ray as opposed to streaming, I went "wow, you can really notice the sound quality."

Sidenote: Voidzilla did a 6 minute video about this interview [1]. Tucker focused on injustice, but not the billions SBF stole from people, but the fact that the people who took SBF's political contributions didn't get him off. The implications seem to be that Tucker values transactional justice rather than unbiased justice. This is a sea-change in American (and indeed Western) jurisprudence that is (to me) some combination of shocking and expected at this point.

'Because a man who hypes Social Security "as a ponzi scheme" '

The only thing that differentiates Social Security from a typical Ponzi scheme is that a typical Ponzi scheme is now illegal.

Neither Boomers, Gen x, nor gen y, are paying enough contributions to meet their demands and are instead relying on contributions from future donors.

That is indistinguishable from what Ponzi did.
No; Grin doesn't require transacting parties to both be online. The necessary back and forth can be done by email, by direct message, by carrier pigeon, or what have you.

Grin's hiding of amount and address doesn't depend on that.
Only the use of CoinSwap to hide the tx graph would depend on a sufficient amount of daily CoinSwap txs.

While Monero's privacy is a little better, it pays a large price for it: having a 20x faster growing chain, and the need to remember randomly accessible data from every output ever spent.

If we didn't see tons of people reaching their "target weight" on GLP-1 drugs while having unhealthily low levels of lean body mass, you might have a point.

But that is what we do see. I'd argue that they're still in a better place than they were before, and we know that muscle that has been lost recently grows back very quickly when exposed to stimulus and adequate protein and rest, so I absolutely am a full believer in GLP-1 medications.

But if everyone on GLP-1 meds were keeping up with their protein and resistance training, even leg day, there would be very very few that had huge legs. That one portion of their body might be, on average, more muscular than a totally untrained individual, but it's not like being fat is the equivalent of a low bf% bodybuilder when it comes to lower body muscle mass. A formerly 300lb person dropping down to 180 with average genetics is almost certainly going to have smaller legs than someone who has been lifting for a year at the same height/weight.
If this concept resonates, https://www.flow.club/ is where you'll find people who practice this technique regularly. We use it to do everything from the work we care about and want to be even better at, to work we don't care for like taxes, bills and laundry but have some mental block or emotional resistance to.

I think people with ADHD are hyper attuned to the effort that goes into everything from the moment we wake up (related term: executive dysfunction), so we look for ways to facilitate "doing." Other people who have similar levels of awareness tend to be self-employed (your time costs you), working parents (limited time and energy) and graduate students (long-term dread), but not everyone. And no, I don't think this is a purely remote work issue.

With all the AI discussion I'll just take a moment to talk about humans. HN probably thinks anything having to do with other humans are yuck especially on the internet and would be proven right most of the time.

Humans are already capable of “post-truth”. This is enabled by instant global communication and social media (not dismissing the massive benefits these can bring), and led by dictators who want fealty over independent rational thinking.

The limitations of slow news cycles and slow information transmission lends to slow careful thinking. Especially compared to social media.

Tinted front windows cause several problems:

1. It's harder to communicate with drivers with tinted windows and to check for their attention. This especially affects pedestrians and bicyclists who have to take pains to make sure they have a driver's attention before making their move, even when they have right of way.

2. You can't prosecute someone for a moving violation if they weren't identified as driving the car (because if a car is stolen for a joyride you don't want the original owner losing their license). Overly tinted front windows make it harder to consistently ID a driver, and let people get away with reckless driving.

3. Frankly it's annoying to not be able to see through cars. It makes certain turns iffier (because you can't see through the parked cars to identify oncoming traffic) and it makes it harder to predict a slow down if you can't see through the back windshield of the huge SUV completely obstructing your line-of-site. Obviously you should be maintaining a sufficient stopping distance to safely slow down, but that doesn't make it nicer to be able to see the slowdown/stop coming a bit before it arrives.

In Letta that's referring to an LLM agent that has persistent memory (eg keep running the agent far beyond its context window limit, but maintain some persistent state to avoid derailment / enable indefinite use / learning over long horizons).

If you implement this persistent memory via tool use, then it's related to inserting/querying databases, because some agent has to read/write to a data store (potentially backed by a database) to maintain memories.

You would want union types for that, they behave more like what you have in mind. (Scala 3 has such a feature, as an example)

Also, Rich Hickey's Maybe Not talk is sort of about this "non-composability" of ADTs. E.g. a function accepting a String can be relaxed to accept `String | None` without recompile, but changing it to `Maybe<String>` would make a refactor necessary.

At the same time Maybe<Maybe<String>> may encode a useful state that will be unrepresentable with `(String | None) | None = String | None`.

I expect that for truly innovative research, it might flag the innovative parts of the paper as a mistake if they're not fully elaborated upon... E.g. if the author assumed that the reader possesses certain niche knowledge.

With software design, I find many mistakes in AI where it says things that are incorrect because it parrots common blanket statements and ideologies without actually checking if the statement applies in this case by looking at it from first principles... Once you take the discussion down to first principles, it quickly acknowledges its mistake but you had to have this deep insight in order to take it there... Some person who is trying to learn from AI would not get this insight from AI; instead they would be taught a dumbed-down, cartoonish, wordcel version of reality.

Hey everyone, I'm going to need to respond to dozens of RFPs and the average one is going to be 40 pages long. About 1/3 of the RFP is just insertion of current content with some slight tweaks, the rest is answers to questions based on current answer bank.

What better way to "own the libs" than to openly transgress against sacrosanct values? There is a certain power when you demonstrate that shame, consistency, or principle has no hold on you. To avoid the internal backstabbing this would entail, you also need to convince the audience that it's all a kind of kayfabe, make-believe, and that you really ARE principled and trustworthy with your people, or for some short period of time to achieve a goal. It's foolish, but the world is full of foolish people believing simply because it feels good. Reality has no place in this calculus. This is NOT a partisan problem.
