Sorry, I strongly disagree. Comparing detaining someone for 10 days (for, apparently, a genuine violation of immigration law - self-employment on a TN visa) to killing twenty million people is in no way reasonable, and it's certainly not informative or curious. It's just a snarky ideological barb and a violation of those guidelines.

And just to take a poke at the title of the original El Reg article: Do you really think the problem is that they just haven't "learned" yet how to "play nice"? I'm sure the great oracle goggle, just needs someone to poperly splain it to them.
In a separate thread I estimated cost of doing the full output 10x. $18. It certainly adds up, yes, the thing I get indignant about (not with you, just, in general) is even the most expensive is definitely an OOM off and most likely 2 OOMs off from paying an engineer.

It's non-trivial work that requires domain knowledge, i.e. it would have been a 4-6 week project for a noogler, and I would have been impressed if they did it without heavy guidance. (Emergent requirements around purposely using an older API, stuff like that).

Related, the similarities I see when a human runs out of context window are really interesting.

I do a lot of interviews, and the poor performers usually end up running out of working memory and start behaving very similar to an LLM. Corrections/input from me will go into one ear and fall out the other, they'll start hallucinating aspects of the problem statement in an attractor sort of way, they'll get stuck in loops, etc. I write down when this happens in my notes, and it's very consistently 15 minutes. For all of them, it seems to be the lack of familiarity doesn't allow them to compress/compartmentalize the problem into something that fits in their head. I suspect it's similar for the LLM.
Yes, that is all covered in that video.
I like your resolution.

That said, subscriptions could also be opt-in for renewal.

I think all of this is friction over a bad/predatory business model.

The unintended consequence of this is that it effectively elevates Apple's protocols and methods to standards, without any kind of industry consultation.

The reason that's a bad thing is because the standards are filled with nuance to suit a range of scenarios that extend well beyond the custom methods that Apple have built to match the limits they chose for their particular accessories.

Due to Apple's size, this removes power from the decision making bodies and hands it over to Apple's entirely private process. It also hamstrings development for standards that would have emulated certain Apple features, since the "why bother" factor comes into play.

Meanwhile I don't actually hold much hope out for these changes to "increase competition". To use AirPods as an example. The only difference between setting up and using the AirPods versus a set of standard bluetooth earphones is the flashy set up process. Yes the Apple process is faster, but the normal process is not at all inconvenient, and Apple did not make any changes to add friction to that process. In every other way the devices will function identically. The popularity of the AirPods instead comes from the decent sound, range, battery life and stable connection - these aren't things Apple can fix for junky competitors.

The EU seems unable to discern the difference between success from merit versus success from lack of competition, their clumsy and ineffectual attempts to change the market for their advantage demonstrate that, meanwhile everyone has to deal with the unintended consequences.
For experimentation and smaller models, single gpu is the way to go! Tbh I normally find most people to spend the majority of their time on datasets, training loss convergence issues etc!

But if its helpful I was thinking about spinning up a platform for something like that!
I’m not sure I’m misinterpreting what you’re saying but if you’re suggesting someone dealing with loss or grief, particularly really bad ones like losing a child, is not a functional mature adult because these emotions interfere with their day to day functioning, I would posit that a person who made such a claim has never experienced a loss like that. I hope I am not misinterpreting your first statement.

as for your second, that’s often, if not always, an unconscious action
Compressing existing models is exactly what we are talking about here.
Ahh yes. Because that other AI model is 100% perfect. Gee whiz.

Man the people working on these machines, selling them, and using them lack the very foundational knowledge of information theory.

Let alone understanding the humanities and politics. Subjectively speaking, humans will never be satisfied with any status quo. Ergo there is no closed-form solution to meeting human wants.

Now disrupting humans' needs, for profit, that is well understood.

Sam Altman continuing to stack billions after allegedly raping his sister.
Huh?

I really don't understand this perspective. Sum types are crazy useful for data modelling. A couple examples:

- Its quite common to need to model user input events. Eg, MouseClickEvent { mouseid, button }, KeyboardEvent { key, modifierFlags }, and so on. The most natural way to express this is using a sum type, with an event loop in your application matching out the different event types.

- Actually, most events follow this pattern. Eg, window management events, event sourcing (eg in kafka), actor mailbox events, etc.

- I've been working in the field of collaborative editing for the last ~decade. There, we talk a lot about editing operations. For text editing, they're either Insert { position, content } or Delete { position, length }. Some systems have a Replace type too. Sum types are a much more natural way to express operations.

- Results are sum types. Eg, if I submit a request to an RPC server, I could get back Ok(result) or Err(error). Thats a sum type. Likewise, this is what I want when I call into the POSIX API. I don't want to check the return value. I want a function that gives me either a result or an error. (And not a result-or-null and error-or-null like you get in Go.)

How would you elegantly express this stuff without sum types? I guess for input events you could use a class hierarchy - but that makes it infinitely harder to implement data oriented design. Things like serialization / deserialization become a nightmare.

Frankly, all the alternatives to sum types seem worse. Now I've spent enough time in languages which have sum types (typescript, rust, swift, etc), I can't go back. I just feel like I'm doing the compiler's job by hand, badly.
Yeah, the behaviour which was fixed recently was even worse, but it's still a bit of a concerning feature of a scheme which is supposed to be 'unphishable'
I do wish we’d have better sources since there could be a range of jokes about the two shooters during the campaign which could get close to a plausible threat, but the fact that they just shipped him home makes that seem less likely.

> If they were people would have moved, or somewhere would have ended up being a lot better.

sorry, I am not going to bother reading the rest of your comment before writing this reply because reading this part stopped me immediately.

Gentrification and displacement has been a growing issue for decades. Especially in California, people who grow up here can't afford to stay here and end up moving from high cost coastal areas to exurbs in the central valley or inland empire or just leave the state entirely for places like arizona, nevada, texas, or beyond. These are the places that have been growing most over the past couple of decades. Population in the high-cost areas may be increasing too (or at least staying the same) but that's because higher-income people who can afford it are willing and able to move there.
It's almost certainly better than the status quo, but it's an awkward hole in a standard which is billed as 'unphishable'.

> In addition, before the integration into Chromium, we ran a wide set of pixel comparisons in Skia, comparing FreeType rendering to Skrifa and Skia rendering to ensure the pixel differences are absolutely minimal, in all required rendering modes (across different antialiasing and hinting modes).

I'm hoping (but not sure) Skrifa will support hinting (though I'm not sure how it interacts with fontconfig). I noticed your screenshot uses full hinting (a subjective choice I currently don't use on my machines), presumably with integer glyph positioning/advance which isn't scale-independent (neither is Windows GDI), though this is quite a nonstandard configuration IMO.

Appreciate the thoughtful feedback. You're right that accountants play a huge role in software adoption, and we’re spending a lot of time talking to them to understand their workflows.

That said, we think the landscape is shifting. AI and automation are changing how accounting gets done, and the next generation of software won’t be about preserving unintuitive workflows. It’ll be about eliminating unnecessary manual work and giving both businesses and accountants better tools.

QuickBooks has deep roots, but businesses today expect more than just accountant-approved tools. They want real-time insights, automation, and software that works for both them and their accountants.
Thank you! I'm not against such hype TBH :)
>But again, why call out specific groups by gender or race and not call out others?

History. There is an undeniable legacy of gender and race-based discrimination. This discrimination was absolutely laser-focused on gender and race, so is it fairer to simply ignore this and call it a wash?

For instance, some estimates of the value of free labor provided by slaves in the U.S. are upwards of $100 trillion, with an amplification effect (including an inverse one), compounding over generations.

>Do people really think that a white guy from some poor area has more privilege...

No. There are programs for people in rural areas, poorer areas, etc. To the extent that these are inadequate, they should also be addressed.

But, it's not just about economics. It's also about culture, socialization, etc.
I’m working an AI coding agent[1], and all changes accumulate in a sandbox by default that is isolated from the project.

Auto-commit is also enabled (by default) when you do apply the changes to your project, but I think keeping them separated until you review is better for higher stakes work and goes a long way to protect you from stray edits getting left behind.

But we don't work for the system, fundamentally, we work for ourselves, and the system incentivizes us to work for it by aligning our constraints: if you work that direction, you'll get that reward.

Overconfident people ofc do not contribute positively to the system, but they skew the system reward's calculation towards them: I swear I've done that work in that direction, where's my reward ?

In a sense, they are extremely successful: they managed to do very low effort, get very high reward, help themselves like all of us but at a much better profit margin, by sacrificing a system that, let's be honest, none of us care about really.

Your problem maybe, is that you swallowed the little BS the system fed you while incentivizing you: that the system matters more than yourself, at least at a greater extent than healthy ?

And you see the same thing with AI: these things convince people so deeply of their intelligence that it blew to such proportion that NVidia is now worth trillions. I had a colleague mumbling yesterday that his wife now speaks more with ChatGPT than him. Overconfidence is a positive attribute... for oneself.
I have a wake-alarm[0] that triggers 30 minutes before civil twilight, that is roughly 60 minutes before local sunrise.

In the northern hemisphere at 52 degrees it gets earlier by about 2 minutes each day (additional 4 minutes of daytime).

So I get more sleep and short days in winter and less sleep and longer days in summer. It's liberating basing schedule on it and not some arbitrary time.

A monthly transit pass costs me $100 where I am in the US. Also, as long as you use the same payment method every time, the system tracks when you've reached the daily max and monthly max and stops charging you for the remainder of the period so you don't even need to buy the pass ahead of time. It couldn't be easier and there isn't a reliable used car you could drive for cheaper.

I still own and use a car because there is enough friction in day to day errands that transit isn't a great option for. For trips to downtown or the various arenas, it works wonderfully though.

The HN comments are for our discussion. If you choose to latch on to portions of initial posts or comments like the latter for swipes than that's the kind of discussion we get to have. If you choose to focus most of the discussion on other lines like:

> I personally don’t agree - they’re clearly using their market power to lock consumers into their walled ecosystem. This causes there to be less competition, which increases prices and reduces innovation. DOJ seems to agree.

instead then the quality of discussion here will match.

What do you mean «Neither case would be good»? Not clear.

git diff != git log.

To expand on that, the problem with only having git diff is there's no way to go backwards halfway. You can't step backwards in time until you get to the bad commit just before the good commit, and then do a precise diff between the two. (aka git bisect) Reviewing 300 lines out of git diff and trying to find the bug somewhere in there is harder than when there are only 10.
You can just bring or buy some pop-up travel blackout blinds made for babies. We used those with great effect when visiting my parents' summer house in Northern Norway in the summers when the kids were young.

I feel like you are trying to draw a false equivalence in both directions to create a loaded question. Obviously the parent is comparing housing of approximately similar value, with different densities and local amenities. My answer is neither: I don't want to live in and maintain a massive mansion nor have to drive 20+ minutes to do literally anything in Bal Air. I'm also not interested in living in apartments which are often not representative of the advantages of urban living because they are frequently built away from transit and business districts.
Okay, I was being a little snarky. But that quoted portion doesn't really contradict my point; that is in no way an exploration of good reasons why Apple might want to make these choices.

> We need hardened and privacy-protecting Bluetooth stacks, not blaming people for using their phones as designed

Phones are explicitly designed to collect and leak as much of your personal data as possible. Nobody us going to implement hardened bluetooth stacks that protect you because that defeats the whole purpose. We're lucky they allow us to disable bluetooth at all. They've already changed airplane mode to continue using wireless and bluetooth even when enabled. Any useful features of bluetooth you might use with your phone is probably just bait to get to leak more of your data. They've removed headphone jacks to force your hand, but most people could at least make sure that bluetooth isn't enabled while it isn't in active use.
