"OpenAI’s models are trained to not replicate works for consumption by the public. Instead, they learn from the works and extract patterns, linguistic structures, and contextual insights," OpenAI claimed. "This means our AI model training aligns with the core objectives of copyright and the fair use doctrine, using existing works to create something wholly new and different without eroding the commercial value of those existing works."

What do you think? Do they have a point and is their alleged law-breaking simply for the greater good of pushing civilization forward, or is this just a desparate comment of someone who based their business on illegal material?
He had three wives in succession. Any one or three could make the claim. There was probably a limited budget that had to go through a small committee to allocate the new funds. After a while it runs out.

Who is that? I am not sure why you would assume everyone knows who that is?

Efficiency certainly isn't unimportant but fast charging can overcome it.

I would also argue that EVs can't succeed unless fast charging overcomes efficiency. For EVs to succeed and overtake ICE vehicles they need to work for vehicles that are inherently inefficient, such as minivans, 3-row family SUVs, trucks, and commercial vans.

This is especially true since large vehicles are often the most profitable in the US.
You have it all wrong.

People are not equations.

Let’s define risk in this discussion.

Risk is the relative impact your decisions have on the org at large. If you make the wrong choice as the CEO, you can tank the company.

If someone’s job involves risk, and you pay them peanuts, they’ll either go to a job that doesn’t involve that much risk or make decisions that are always maximally safe, regardless of potential upside, usually at the cost of company growth.

You want your staff to feel comfortable taking risks so that the company can grow, because a stagnant company will die. So you pay your positions more when they have more risk.
Nobody said you had to retire. If you want to work until your 80s, have at it.

Just don't support a society where it's a necessity
The point is that any formal borrow checking will reject perfectly valid patterns because they are impossible to statically prove, and this comes up especially often with data structures like graphs. So you end up struggling against the compiler - either you just go unsafe (in which case you have to be even more careful than in C and Zig because Rust makes more optimization assumptions based on ownership which you're now responsible for), or else you use hacks like using indices instead of pointers to, basically, work around the borrow checker.
Now that ClickHouse is moving towards becoming an observability platform, what does the future look like for other products like HyperDX that are essentially ClickHouse wrappers? Are we looking at another controversial license change?

Don't almost everyone sell themselves? Many people, as employees, sell themselves for 5 days per week, every week, except days off.

And everybody buys stuff, and therefore relies on people selling stuff.

The only way I see we could avoid being exposed to selling would be do have a different way to organize the economy / the society.

> He had three wives in succession.

This means that the first two probably died.

Edit:

I've checked and indeed his first wife died in 1826 (maybe during childbirth looking at the date), his second in 1851, he married his third wife that same year. Ruth was actually his 7th and last child.
It was the 19th century. People didn't "just" divorce and people also tended to die of many deceases and during childbirth.

> Any one or three could make the claim.

Well, no. He could only be married to one at the time of his death (even if the others were still alive) and so only leave one widow behind to make a claim.

Show HN: We made our CRM/ERP platform open-source thanks to AI
We've recently made our product, ozma.io, open-source. It's a CRM/ERP platform for building enterprise systems.

We believe that AI will soon handle implementing most of the boilerplate and UIs in the specialized business software. Just look at what lovable.dev does today! Soon products which make creating business software easier for developers will become obsolete, or transform into "libraries" to be used by AIs.

We are losing this race, so we go the second route — publish everything and go on building other products on top of it.

Ugh. This is probably one of those "Thanks, I hate it!" moments. You're probably 100% right, and this is why I could never be an independent contractor. This kind of self-promotion and lead generation seems so demeaning, slimy, and shameful, and I'd probably die of embarrassment if I ever had to do it. Yet it comes so naturally to some people. It sucks that this kind of skill is required to make it on your own.

But 5f is still high.

This is actually terrible and supports their point. Heat pumps are not sized as if they were running at a mere 100% or less, they are sized for the btus they normally produce, and aim to run close to 100% of the time, meaning they will be too small and not be able to do the job when they drop below 200-300% efficiency, unless they are grossly oversized. That leads to short cycles which makes condensation and moisture in the summer and wear and tear all year and less electrical efficiency because starting a pump and blower costs more than running it.

Current inverter types that can run slow do allow them to be oversized but it's still not great. Those are more expensive and have more failure points in electronics too.
Interesting.

For Virgil, I started with mostly Java/C syntax, but with "variable: type" instead of "type variable", because it was both easier to parse and was more like standard ML and what you encounter in programming language theory. That syntax was already catching on, so I felt like I was swimming with the stream. I initially made silly changes like array indexing being "array(index)" instead of "array[index]", which turned out to be annoying to just take random code and change all the "[" to "(" and "]" to ")". Also, I had keywords "method" and "field", but eventually decided things looked better as "def" and "var", because they were easier to eyeball and readily understandable to people who write JavaScript (and Scala, as it turns out).

Overall Virgil's syntax is a kind of an average of all the curly braced languages and where it differs at all, it's been to make things more composable and avoid cryptic line-noise-looking things. For example, to allocate an object of class C, one writes "C.new(args)", because that can be understood as "C.new" as a function applied to "(args)"--so one can easily write "C.new" and yes, indeed, that's a first class function. That works with delegates and so on. So I don't regret not exactly matching the "new C()" you'd find in Java or C++.
You mean Welford's algorithm. Since code was requested:

There's no amount of simplification that'll free you from the need to manually check and handle/propagate errors or deallocate resources in C. You might be able to reduce the amount of code you need to write, but it's still several lines of C versus one line of something else - and if you make a mistake or even forget something in those several lines, things will often compile and run fine, but you'll have memory leaks or sporadic crashes.
What would prevent gun stores from selling guns to criminals would be the law and the punishments doled out by the government. So if your argument is that Switzerland should punish Swiss companies for dealing with oppressive governments, then yeah, maybe. That's not the topic of discussion, though.

If someone buys a gun in a foreign country, and after returning to his home country he shoots a man, is he subject to the laws of the foreign country? To me that sounds like it would be a breach of the sovereignty of the man's home country. Not that I'm saying this is an apt analogy, but it's certainly closer.
Yeah, for real. They think that grifting was invented as recently as 1892? That's insane. One of the earliest known pieces of written language is some sanskrit calling one guy's limestone a ripoff. Basically a bad Yelp review. Obviously you don't need reviews if everyone is honest, ergo grifting most likely existed before written language

nit: The valve is a thermostat that vents the air/steam in the radiator when it's not hot enough, letting new steam come in and replace it. This gets heat to the radiator quicker (over pure diffusion), and provides a mechanism of controlling its individual heat output. Of course, these valves are often broken.

We're commenting on an Ubuntu discussion where an Ubuntu developer is proposing to make this mandatory for Ubuntu. Even when the alternatives system is suggested, that's quickly dismissed, because the real aim is to boot out coreutils permanently and make written-in-Rust the default.

The most likely bugs you'll encounter are due to Fil-C using musl, not glibc (that always leads to some incompatibilities for GNU code).

No.

Hi HN,

I've spent the past 4+ years building and refining go-zero, a microservice framework in Go. What began as a personal project to streamline microservice development has grown into a robust framework now used widely in production, surpassing 30,000 stars on GitHub.

My original motivation was to simplify the complexity around microservice architectures—making it easier for teams to build scalable, fault-tolerant, and maintainable systems. Today, go-zero includes features like built-in load balancing, circuit breaking, service discovery, and a simplified developer experience with minimal boilerplate.

Reaching this milestone, I'm reflecting on the journey, lessons learned, and the importance of open-source community feedback. I'd love to hear your thoughts, experiences, and suggestions.

Can you not pretend that my argument had zero nuance?

I specifically mentioned in my reply that Apple should be forced by consumer regulations to remove guardrails like disallowing competing app stores, and they should be forced to have more interoperability with competing standards and products (e.g., iMessage/FaceTime should be an open protocol where other vendors could make compatible communication apps).

But they shouldn't be forced to allow you to gain full root or dump the secure enclave's private keys.
How else would anyone actually know that you were available? And that they should give you money?

And, even if you get referred, you still need to seal the deal.

And even within a larger company, unless someone like your manager more or less does it for you, "advertising" your accomplishments is pretty essential if you want anyone to reward your accomplishments.

So at -20 and below they are basically very, very expensive resistive heaters. Good for medium climates, bad further north.

Also either need very expensive oversizing or backup heat sources to compensate reduced heat output, even if you get occasional cold spikes.

A lot of people are probably going to reply with "Use your network!" which has always struck me as kind of vaguely incomplete and unhelpful advice. It's like telling an investor "Buy low and sell high." and leaving it at that. OK, thank you, Captain Obvious, that's wonderful, but how?

Maybe it's different in the independent contracting world, but I've found my "network" only semi-helpful in gaining employment. They can give good ideas about companies to try, they can help you refine your resume, and do interview coaching, and if you're lucky they work at the same company you want to apply for so can submit your resume with the "recommend" box ticked, but that's all they seem to be able to do. I've never once had someone in my network who had his hands directly on the "hire this man!" lever at the company.

I’d argue the hypothesis is the third step Decide. The Orient step is framing of the situation and the most important part of the OODA loop versus the actual hypothesis step.

I think the major difference between the OODA Loop and Science seems to be that OODA Loop is in a way backwards looking. You take in the knowledge of the past and your enemy’s knowledge and make a hypothesis you execute on based on that assumed knowledge to not die. Science you predict a future state where the knowledge is unclear or unknown.
I mean, don’t undervalue your own network without trying. Maybe you haven’t worked with anyone famous, most of us haven’t! But someone you know might be in the right place at the right time and mention you to the right person. Of course it’s imperfect but you have interacted with a lot more people in the past than you are giving yourself credit for. It’s about putting yourself out there and allowing that to happen. No one said to just pray to the network and quit looking though. But people who already know you are a good apple from past experience are the best.
