Whenever you feel like not doing your job, just tell your boss "I don't want to" and see how that goes for you.

I understand how motivation works. Sometimes doing a job sucks. That's part of why you get paid to do it.

It sounds to me like those police officers don't want to do their jobs. I'd encourage them to quit instead of wasting tax dollars. Of course the real issue is they want the money without the work, and the respect without having to earn it.
Is there a non-paywall version of this article?
Of course not - that would be ridiculous - it's clearly a job for a Mini-Me! ;)

You've made a reasonable argument that LLMs cannot on their own be an implementation of GAI. But GP's claim was stronger: that LLMs won't even be a component (or "building block") of the first GAI.

> In your neighbor's house example, it would be like if there was a street market auction for trading cards happening in your neighbor's front yard, but in the house your neighbor and another neighbor had gotten together to trade 100x the average #of cards using the prices they hear from outside, and the people outside only see the deal they made after it's done.

Isn't that how everything is traded? Am I supposed to be outraged that everything I buy retail also exists in a wholesale market?
Probably because they're not actually patching anything, but playing a shell game.

If they were serious about patching issues, they would have added LiDAR already. They're trying to software patch their way out of the fact their perception stack is essentially blind to huge classes of objects drivers encounter every day.
The invention of writing in Ur has an uncanny alignment with the Jewish calendar.
The movie "Echo in the Canyon" is a little too worshipful and has a little too much Jakob Dylan, but it really highlights how all of the artists of that time including the Beatles were listening to each other and pushing their own art further to match or top what they heard from other artists.
Thanks. So the structure in the OP is an array of uint32s.

Not to be flippant, that sounds like working at a lot of big tech companies nowadays. More conceptually, you have the constant churn of in house tooling meaning what you wrote last year needs to be rewritten to work with the new version of X (be it the ticketing system or the new process to store secrets or the new frontend framework that will fix everything). And even more concretely, there are teams that will fully get sunset when a new product or service deprecates them or beats them to market.

That's basically how I designed the magic bytes for the OpenTimestamps proof files:

$ hexdump -C foo.ots
00000000 00 4f 70 65 6e 54 69 6d 65 73 74 61 6d 70 73 00 |.OpenTimestamps.|
00000010 00 50 72 6f 6f 66 00 bf 89 e2 e8 84 e8 92 94 01 |.Proof..........|

0) Magic is at the beginning of the file.

1) Starts with a null-byte to make it clear this is binary, not text.

2) Includes a human-readable part to make it easy to figure out what the file is in hex dumps.

3) 8 bytes of randomly chosen bytes, all of which greater than 0x7F to ensure they're not ASCII.

3) Finally, a one-byte major version number.

4) Total length (including major version) is 32 bytes to fit nicely in a hex dump.

Taking a guess based on the text in the cited intro, I wonder if the problem wasn't one of copyright, but one of credit.

Even in a group that doesn't care about copyright at all, it'd be tacky to copy someone else's code and not credit them, or to pretend it's all your own work.

Plus, many "wealthy expats" don't live in the city, preferring neighboring suburbs like Cascais or Sintra. The Lisbon proper is very dense, lacks greenery, and chokes in traffic, an interesting place to visit, but not to live in.

Meanwhile, every single real estate developer / agent sets their prices incredibly high hoping to sell or rent out the property to those mythical "wealthy expats". I saw a stat somewhere that less than 0.2% of all real estate transactions in the country each year involve foreigners, and yet everyone blames them for high real estate prices.
>As an analogy, I'm imagining a country where there is no reliable municipal property registry, and no one knows who owns a particular house. Wouldn't that create chaos?

That's basically how it works in many (most?) US states. There's no authoritative record of all claims on a property. Land registries exist, but they're not authoritative. Liens can exist without being registered on it, and surface later. Hence the need for "title insurance".

25 years takes us back quite a bit. Meaningful breakthroughs in physics I can think of:

The Higgs Boson was a pretty big thing. We "saw" gravitational waves with LIGO. There was that picture of a black hole. Despite the unavailability of a useful quantum computer, there's been a ton of advancement in that area. Neutrino stuff won the 2015 Nobel Prize that stuff will require new physics.

It is hard to call it "literal" interpretation of my words when they do not contain any occurrence of the word "zealots".

I think exegesis is a skill you need to hone further.
Acts in public are not protected. This, however is:

"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
The only time to directly threaten legal action is when you don't think legal action will achieve your goal, and you've got nothing else. Otherwise, there is no benefit to threatening legal action. Sure, you can imply it, but you gain nothing by showing those cards.

I'd like to gauge if there's actual interest before publishing something nobody will use

If you don't publish it, it is certain nobody will use it.

If you don't have intrinsic enthusiasm for the library, in the long run, it probably won't matter much how other people feel about it.

Using the heuristic only 1% of public forum users ever comment and the small size of HN userbase, you are unlikely to hear from actual potential users (I am not one).

Finally, building many things is the best route to building something worth building. People who are good at building are good at building because they build things all the time. Because they build all the time, building something that might not work doesn't fall into the waste of time bucket -- for them that bucket is filled with didn't builds. Good luck.

> I'd far rather have the OS provide a verified safe socket layer, and a dynamically linked SSL library, that can be easily updated without any of the application layer needing to worry about security bugs in the networking layer.

Then you're trying to rely on the OS for this when it should actually be a dynamically linked third party library under some open source license.

Trying to get the OS to do it fails to one of two problems. Either each OS provides its own interface, and then every application has to be rewritten for each OS and developers don't want to deal with that so they go back to using a portable library, or the OS vendors all have to get together and agree on a standard interface, but then at least Microsoft refuses to participate and that doesn't happen either.

The real problem here is that mobile platforms fail to offer a package manager with the level of dependency management that has existed on Linux for decades. The way this should work is that you open Google Play and install whatever app that requires a QUIC library, it lists the QUIC library as a dependency, so the third party open source library gets installed and dynamically linked in the background, and the Play Store then updates the library (and therefore any apps that use it) automatically.

But what happens instead is that all the apps statically link the library and then end up using old insecure versions, because the store never bothered to implement proper library dependency management.

I've been playing with the HSTX (High Speed Serial Transmit) peripheral lately and it's craziness too.

They have a DDR (Double Data Rate) system that allows you to generate signals from bitstream shift registers that are twice the speed of the system clock.

This means one can generate ~300-400MHz signals from these ~$1 ICs.

Run this with the PIO subsystem, dual core 150MHz, Floating Point hardware, 512K (of expandable) SRAM and massive storage options.

Absolutely wild device and unlike most chips that are half-as-capable, cheap enough to stock up on in case of future supply chain disruptions...
I don't agree with the idea (and technically by Jefferson's logic it should now be a much longer period, which shows it would need to be more flexible), but whatever process approves the new Constitution (probably involving a Supreme Court-type entity) would have to require these changes. Future Constitutions would both have "this document expires in 19 years" and "the successor of this document must include this clause, and the clause 'this document expires in 19 years'", and another for privacy (which would be up to whatever court allows the new Constitution). Enforcement is still "difficult", but that's kind of inherent in the process.
Coming from 10+ years of pip and also heavy venv user - uv seems pretty good.

First impressions of uv are quite nice, but how does one change Python versions once you have a project up?

I installed 3.13 with `uv python install python3.13`

I see bunch of Python versions now with `uv python list` (uv even found my old Anaconda 3.9 install from way back)

But how would I switch to 3.13?

LLM hallucinates with `uv venv use 3.13` but that command does not work.

I see from https://docs.astral.sh/uv/concepts/projects/config/#python-v... that one can specify the version in pyproject.toml, but should not there be a command line to switch?
The key breakthrough for 5G was allowing ~10x the number of devices to connect to a node compared to 4G. 5G is what allowed the toppling of data caps that was by far the #1 consumer complaint for years. 4G just couldn't handle heavy loads well, so data caps were needed to constrain demand.

Teleco's aren't going to say this out load, but it's the real reason why they were so celebratory about 5G, despite it coming off like just a renamed 4G to the average user.

Welcome to having a job/career. We've all put time and effort in to projects that never materialized. Do you expect every one of your ideas to be adopted and implemented by others? Surely not...

LAPD is a bastion of terrible police work. They have a rich history of killing, beating, racism, and organized crime. Maybe they're still doing bad police work, ever considered that? This budget is to protect them from civil rights lawsuits they're losing on the regular... which actually makes them the law breakers.

While Jefferson is an understandably venerated figure in the foundation of America, he was not active in the creation of the constitution. He of course wrote The Declaration of Independence and while having misgivings about the strength of the executive branch, he went on to become a hugely influential president.

On the filp side, it took him a while to come around to see the folly that was the then French Revolution whereas his political critics - notably Adams, Washington, and the frequently maligned Hamilton, were quick to keep their distance from it.

I like Jefferson but he sometimes seems to have an overly rosy and romantic view of revolutions. Tearing down is easy. Building up is very hard.
