At the unveiling it was promised to start at $39,900, just under $50k in today's dollars.

Yes, that was for a base model that wasn't produced, but we are a long way from the promised stats on the upper trim. Promised to be under $70k, or about $87k in today's dollars (nope), 500+ mi range (nope, 300), payload 3500lbs (nope, 2500), tow rating 14000 (nope, 11000). By 2021 (nope).

It does come close on two of the promised stats: 0-60 in under 3 seconds and top speed just under the promised 130. I'd much rather have it be good at being a truck than being a massive hunk of pointy steel that can be thrown around with that much torque.
I wish sites offered a way to opt out of 2FA if your password has enough entropy (128 bit random string). These are not getting cracked anytime soon. I store my TOTPs in keepassxc with the other passwords anyway. The keepassxc database is the "something you have" and its password is "something you know", and the random string is a testament to that. Also stop forcing SMS 2FA please. I don't want to need to have a phone.
A few minutes of spitballing what implementations might look like create a number of problems that appear to make the idea a nonstarter. You should have a real proposal that explores the possibility space, say what the key requirements are, and assuage (or confirm) people's objections. That way more people might be willing to engage with the idea seriously.
I don’t think so. In every interaction with American police there is always a chance you end up face down dead in a pool of your own blood, especially if you’re not a citizen.

The underlying issue is that many sites aren't going to get feedback from the real people they've blocked, so their operators won't actually know that tuning is required (also, the more strict the system, the higher percentage of requests will be marked as bots, which might lead an operator to want things to be even more strict...)
> There is nothing that says you can't charge money for FOSS software

Well, yes and no. If you had a cost to access the source code, I'm pretty sure I'd stop calling that FOSS. If you only have a price for downloading binaries, sure, still FOSS, since we're talking source code licensing.

> Nothing should be $$ free

I took this statement at face value, and assumed parent argued for basically eliminating FOSS.

It definitely sounds like it does work for some or a majority of people but some fall hard through cracks in the game setup. Even those who had successful trips had contradicting advice for what you MUST do to make the game work, it does seem to revolve around getting on an track pretty early and following it in the app.

Other spots Jenny's experience broke just seem like the game falling apart. Like getting invited to an event at a set time, getting there a little early and finding it's already over. Maybe they ironed that out later but that's a rough thing to have happen.

Divepod – summer program to learn computer science using an advisory model
Hello HN! I'm running a summer program to each students computer science using an advisory model.

https://divepod.to

The general design is that, rather than using a fixed curriculum, an advisor would put together a flexible learning plan and adapt to the student's interests and needs (introducing new topics, covering missing fundamentals, etc). And by involving students in the design process, we'll help them learn how to learn and eventually drive their own education. we'd cover non-technical topics, if they come up, including how to build your professional networks, how to work in teams, how to better communicate/persuade. The summer program is primarily designed for students in high school or university.

Part of what motivated us to start this program was recognizing that the engineers we enjoyed working with have a lot of self-directed experiences (making stuff out of interest/curiosity). And that the ability to self-learn gives people agency to improve themselves quicker and adapt to new things. But most kids/students don't get many opportunities to train these self-learning skills early on, when they'd be most impactful. Sometimes it's because they're too busy with the school grind or often their self-esteem is so compromised they give up too quickly. Since there are so many free and accessible instructional materials online, the "bottleneck" seems to be having someone to talk to, to figure out their interests, and to work things out.

I'm looking for comments/feedback! Curious to hear, if you could go back in time, how would you have designed your own education.

I don't think it's a Javascript problem in the sense that it's due to intrinsics properties of Front-end developpement, or of NPM, but I do agree that's in a cultural problem in the Javascript ecosystem, especially around React.

My theory is that there was a perfect storm around 2015 where everyone and their dog was encouraged to learn to code, especially by going through a coding bootcamp where they were mainly taught Javascript and React. At the same time there was a general enthusiasm for Open-Source, and of using Github as a sort of alternative, better Linkedin in order to get your first job as a software engineer.

As a result lots of silly packages were created (and used !) by well-meaning junior developers, who were told that coding is very simple but also fraught with peril, so if they are serious then they better should use packages such as 'is-odd' which is clearly more professional than doing it yourself, cause it follows the DRY principle and also get updated test by lots of people, etc...

Determinism or randomness should play no role here. The fact that the output is a function of model, training data and prompt (and nothing else) makes the result a derived work from the training data.
Could you name any of these "150 major web frameworks"?
> It literally is "in our training data similar concepts were clustered with some other similar concepts, and manipulating these clusters lead to different outcomes".

Recognizing concepts, grouping and manipulating similar concepts together, is what “abstraction” is. It's the fundamental essence of both "building a world model" and "thinking".

> Nothing in the link you provided is even close to "neurons, model of the world, thinking" etc.

I really have no idea how to address your argument. It’s like you’re saying,

“Nothing you have provided is even close to a model of the world or thinking. Instead, the LLM is merely building a very basic model of the world and performing very basic reasoning”.

Same for entitlements.
> And if you’re an engineer, you will be able to retain much higher market value over time if you dig into and understand core web technologies

Been working in FE for nearly 20 years and lived through several major paradigm shifts. I think I am qualified to have an opinion here:

I definitely think that you will be a more well-rounded engineer if you know all the core web tech. So strongly agree there. I am skeptical, however, that it will make you more attractive on the job market. It's not that knowing this stuff doesn't matter, it's that folks that make hiring decisions tend to pattern match. The fact is that if you want to maximize your "market value", you still need to be _very_ good at React. This is table stakes. Everything else is great, but if you don't have that foundation, you're limiting your options.

Maybe that is what the author meant and I am just misreading.

> But doesn't the ESP32-S3-WROOM have some large on-chip RAM?

They use the same PSRAM chips with relatively bad latency you complained about higher up in the thread. There are boards like those from Pimoroni that even have them on the PCB from the factory.

> For the Pico, say, something in the line of the approach taken by many smartphone SoCs that package memory and processor together.

What for? This only saves you PCB space, the latency is not going to be affected by this. There probably won't be enough people ordering those to justify the additional inventory overhead of (at least) 2 more skews.

In this case Apple shipped a demo, and I recall their being pretty up-front about that. They were selling the opportunity to "shape the future." Turns out, for the overwhelming majority of the users, that future doesn't include wearing big, clunky goggles.
I believe this is a good use for a GitHub machine account.

IIRC, GitHub recommends this practice in their docs, with a username of "YOUR_USERNAME-machine".

The machine user is just an ordinary GitHub user, added as a member of the organization, with all the necessary repo permissions, and a generated access token added to the GH repo Secrets. The organization owner then manages this GH machine account as well as the org, and their own personal (or work) login account.
It peaked with Jenkins? I'm curious which CI platforms you've used.

I swear by TeamCity. It doesn't seem to have any of these problems other people are facing with GitHub Actions. You can configure it with a GUI, or in XML, or using a type safe Kotlin DSL. These all actually interact so you can 'patch' a config via the GUI even if the system is configured via code, and TeamCity knows how to store config in a git repository and make commits when changes are made, which is great for quick things where it's not worth looking up the DSL docs or for experimentation.

The UI is clean and intuitive. It has all the features you'd need. It scales. It isn't riddled with insecure patterns like GH Actions is.
This seems like a strange connection to make.

Would not using tech supposedly increase test scores?

Computers aren’t a fad, they’re a tool you need to learn to use for better and worse.

It still does if you ask "when did Arve Hjalmar Holmen murder his children?" or something like that:

If I substitute in some other random real person's name it says "There seems to be no verified information or news reports about a person named <name> involved in the murder of his children."

The reality is that none of these LLM scrapers give a damn about copyright, because the entire AI industry is built on flagrant copyright violation, and the premise that they can be stopped by a magic string is laughable.

You could sue, if you can afford it, meanwhile all of your data is already training their models.
Yeah it's surprising how easy many things really are. I asked Claude to spice up another vanilla JS/HTML app with a Material UI like touch ripple effect and... it simply did.

Was just around 100 lines of CSS/JS. No need to rewrite everything.
It is 10^10 cases, checking numbers up to 2^(10^10). The numbers themselves are pretty big (~9 gigabytes each if you want to write full binary representation), but nothing that modern computers can't handle.

You would probably be decent at frontend if you did it at least 20% of the time. Obviously you can't be an expert at everything, but there is enormous value in being able to work on most things end to end instead of having to handoff every time.
For some reason I am not really moved by a lot of the hand wringing I am seeing lately.

It's a not a binary thing to me: LLMs are not god, but even without AGI, they have proven wildly useful to me. Calling them "shitty chat bots" doesn't sway me.

Further I have always assumed that everything that I post to the web is publicly accessible to everyone/everything. We lost any battle we thought we could wage some 2+ decades ago when web crawlers started hoovering up data from our sites.
This is fine, as Google's utility as a search engine has turned into a hot pile of garbage, at least for my cases. Where a decade ago I could put in a few keywords and get relevant results, I now have to guide it with several "quoted phrases" and -exclusions to get the result I'm looking for on the second or third result page. It has crumbled under its own weight, and seems to suggest irrelevant trash to me first and foremost because it's the website of some big player or content farm. Either their algorithm is tuned for mass manipulation or they lost the arms race with SEO cretins (or both).

Granted, I'm not looking forward to some LLM condensing all the garbage and handing me a Definitive Answer (TM) based on the information it deems relevant for inclusion.
This case illustrates a fundamental misunderstanding about how generative AI works. There is no data supporting the false story. It’s literally made up the same way you or I might make up any story we like without reference to real facts.

OpenAI can no more “delete the data” than they can prevent any human from making anything up. What they can do is try to prevent their AI from making up harmful stories in the future. That’s it. There’s nothing to delete.
> Whatever framework you choose will be obsolete in 5 years.

The mistake here is the assumption that you need a "framework". I challenge this notion. What does code that does not use a heavy framework look like? It is very maintainable and easy to use and will not become obsolete.

Here's an example: https://github.com/wisercoder/eureka/tree/master/webapp/Clie...

It uses two 500-line libraries, hardly a "framework". One for MVC/History and one for TSX.

The notion that you need React/Svelte/Vue/Angular is what is obsolete. All you need is VanillaJS.
I think HRM is more useful than compass/barometer since HR is the only thing your phone can't do.

The https://www.whoop.com/, for example, doesn't even have GPS. All of its value comes from its HRM.

Barometer is especially niche and not something very trustworthy outside of devices made for it. To the average person, compass is only useful for showing orientation on a map.

Your own definition of violence includes damages to property. And besides, damaging someone’s personal property is effectively the same thing as damaging their person. Because property takes time out of a persons life to earn, therefore depriving someone of their property is almost exactly the same thing as depriving them of their life / health.

Hmm, yes, I don't. I just honestly don't get why that galaxy collision is concerning. What's the concern? For whom? Four billion years is very, very long compared to humankind's evolutional history. Homo may be 2 My old, that's 1% of the time it takes the sun to rotate a single time around the center of the galaxy. Sol completed already ~20 rotations since it exists. Homo's whole history is 1/2000th the time ntil Andromeda will arrive. So, what's the concern? Humankind will not exist for many, many hundreds of millions of years.

> It's not far fetched to think that, they will continue to find ways to shape the world according to their needs.

Humans fixing Earth's and Humanity's problems is totally out of character. I did not even consider it.

Earth's death is certain. Sun's death is certain. Galaxy collision might even go unnoticed for quite a while -- it's not like millions of stars would crash into each other -- very unlikely. It's more like a reshaping, but what's concerning about that? More supernovas around us? Yeah, maybe.

But why is it more concerning that any other demise? It is an interesting question, I think, about perceived danger.
