but then, but then your corporate provided laptop with 8GB RAM and 128GB with locked down Windows Entprise™® may need 1000th of security policy exceptions and won't even fit all dependencies on its disk. Not to mention that it would be building for like 10h. Think of the shareholders! The corporation would have to buy actually usable hardware for it's workers! Think of the cost! /j

For real tho, not every project can be build by everyone locally, but at least parts of it should be locally runnable for devs to be able work (at all IMO).
What I am noticing is more and more coding is being done on some server somewhere Github Codespaces anyone? Google Colab? etc.

What I am also noticing is that this tools like GH-A there is not really a way to test the CI code other than.. commit, push, wait, commit, push, wait...
That's just absurd to me. Obviously all CIs have some quirks that sometimes you have _just run it_ and see if it works but this... it's like that for everything! Abusrd I say!
Couldn't they have at least used the word "ruler" then?

Wrong. It's telco money - SoftBank Group is primarily a telco vendor and provider, and works closely with NEC, DoCoMo, T-Mobile, Vodafone, and Airtel.

SoftBank Vision Fund is a separate subgroup of SoftBank targeted at VC, and was largely operated and managed by ex-Deustche Bank alumni due to Rajeev Misra and Colin Fan poaching their colleagues like Ziyad Al-Ashaikh (the guy who helped land the Saudi PIF deal), Akshay Naheta, Munich Verma, Saleh Romeih, etc

It should be familiar from the <hr> tag (horizontal rule).
Largely agree. Arm / Softbank is in a tricky place if there are no credible customers in a given market. Does it just sit on its hands or actually get out there and build some chips! It has helped fund or help some startups that were using Arm designs to get into new markets (eg Annapurna Labs) but sometimes that doesn't work out at all (Nuvia!)

And to be fair I think Rene Haas has been fairly upfront about changing their approach.
I buy software on Steam, I don't buy it elsewhere and won't start buying it elsewhere just because of firefox.

I have some experience with accounting software and its use in various types of business (not just startups).

Xero (rather than Quickbooks) is dominant in the UK and it has a lot of problems. However, I think you are addressing a fundamentally different market. Quickbooks and Xero are both targeted at the long-tail of small businesses - think tradesmen, cafes, hairdressers, etc. The main thing they accomplish for those customers is basic book keeping and business functions (like invoicing, payroll, etc)

Your software seems much more aimed at small companies which want sophisticated tools to generate financial insight. This is not a criticism, just a comment that this is a different and potentially smaller market.

However, one way you could capture the "long tail" of small businesses is by winning over the high-street accountant. If you could let them prepare annual accounts with 10x less work - even if the customer book keeping is a mess - then every accountant will recommend your software to their clients.

Anyway - great to see something new in this space. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss further.
And the remainder of that quote:

How are they extracting value here? Is this just space-race-4-turbo propagandising?

I see plenty of GitHub sites that are barely more than advertising, where some company tries to foss-wash their crapware, or tries to build a little text-colouring library that burrows into big projects as a sleeper dependency. But this isn't that.

What's the long game for these companies?
No nostalgic feelings here: I was conscripted when I was 19 and did my alternative civilian service in a home for Alzheimer patients for roughly a year. Although I was not directly involved in care (I managed the kitchen, gave food to the patients, did smaller repairs, cleaned), it was, by a large margin, the hardest job I ever had. It was the first time I became clearly aware that there is a part of the population that cannot even publicly complain about their workload because they are too tired in the evening to even hold a basic conversation.

Although the home looked nice and clean, and there were some sweet moments, the place in general was crazy and frightening to newcomers and visitors. Patients wandered off through the fire exits, they fought with each other, they died, they went to the toilet in the corner of their rooms, they were sexually interested in each other, grabbed breasts and ran around naked, they fell and injured themselves, they got panic attacks because they wanted to go home, because they suddenly thought they were in a bomber attack on Berlin in 1944 and had to go to the bunker - I could go on and on. One patient, a sweet old lady, was convinced that I was her fiance who died during their flight from Danzig in 1944. After a few weeks, she was convinced I had an affair with another woman, and her feelings towards me became more hostile. During my first week, an old, huge WW2 U-boat sailor became convinced he was in a bar fight and started attacking people. We had to lock him into his room.

My major responsibilities, lunch, breakfast and dinner, were usually complete chaos: imaging a room full of adults who behave like 2 year olds. They tried to eat their drinks with a fork, fell into their soup plates, threw their food onto the floor, complained about the food, refused to drink, cried, choked on the food, wandered off, all while a single patient who didn't even recognize her son anymore loudly proclaimed poems she learned in school as a little girl.

Dealing with relatives was also challenging, because they usually refused to accept the state their loved ones were in. We had one wife who repeatedly wanted us to get her husband to read Plato and Aristotle again, because "he loves doing this". But her husband, a former professor, couldn't even read or write his own name anymore and was mainly interested in trying to get female patients naked.

Other highlights include the time I confused the liquid for our industrial dish washer with a container of hand soap (they looked exactly the same) and flooded the entire kitchen and dining room with a 10 cm carpet of foam. Also, I once worked the late shift for 11 days straight, without a single free day in between. I am sure that wasn't even legal. Afterwards I couldn't remember what I did on individual days, it somehow all blurred together.

All for a pay of around 300 EUR per month (40 hours/week, back in 2007). I was so glad when it was over. But the experience greatly helped me in my later jobs, to put the workload into perspective. It was a humbling experience.
> LLM "hallucinations" are more akin to a student looking at a test over material they only 70% remember grabbing at what they think is the most likely correct answer.

AKA. extrapolation. AKA. what everyone is doing to a lesser or greater degree, when consequences of stopping are worse than of getting this wrong.

That's not just the case of school, where giving up because you "don't know" is guaranteed F, while extrapolating has a non-zero chance of scoring you anything between F and A. It's also the case in everyday life, where you do things incrementally - getting the wrong answer is a stepping stone to getting a less wrong answer in the next attempt. We do that at every scale - from inner thought process all the way to large-scale engineering.

Hardly anyone learns 100% of the material, because that's just plain memorization. We're always extrapolating from incomplete information; more studying and more experience (and more smarts) just makes us more likely to get it right.

> It's not "inventive" to assume one math library will have the same functions as another, it's just losing sight of specific details.

Depends. To a large extent, this kind of "hallucinations" is what a good programmer is supposed to be doing. That is, code to the API you'd like to have, inventing functions and classes convenient to you if they don't exist, and then see how to make this work - which, in one place, means fixing your own call sites, and in another, building utilities or a whole compat layer between your code and the actual API.
> Just show me the pathway to at least 60g/kWh CO2 footprint for Germany. I'm not asking for too much.

The limiting factor right now is the fact that we have about 6GW of coal (and I think about 2GW of gas) production that's always on (those plants primarily provide heat, electricity is a by-product)

We decreased coal by 25% since pre-pandemic [0] and coal is responsible for 70-80% of the total emissions [1] (I'd rather use ourworldindata but they only have data up to 2023), which corresponds closely to the 25% reduction of CO2 intensity of electricity generation. So for the 60g/kWh we are 30% of the way there (starting at 400g/kWh). We are currently _not producing_ enough renewables to do significantly more than putting coal (and gas) temporarily to 0.

> German electricity imports rose by stunning 23% compared to 2023

That's correct but also irrelevant, as we always had the generation capacity to produce the shortfall ourselves. And yes, we absolutely will need to have some fossil backup capacity. As long as we don't need it often it produces not much CO2 (it's just expensive, hence the capacity market will be required). But that is fine, that is what regulators are there for.

> The last year, the maximum price rose to almost $1000 per MWh

It was for exactly one hour. And yes, that might still be a problem, if you are on a spot-market rate. But it's also only one of 8440 hours.

> The proof is in the pudding. The German "green energy" transition has reached its practical limits.

Again: We haven't even reached the point of renewable overproduction (which is the least one would need for any storage solution to even be an option!). This year might be the first one where we will have significant amounts of time where we will have "solar+wind > load" conditions. And this year is, coincidentally, also the one when we will have significant amounts of grid-level batteries installed. And even a one-hour capacity would move your 1000EUR/MWh to 700EUR/MWh. Beyond that it's much harder to estimate, but I would be shocked if 6 hours wouldn't be enough to push that whole day below 500. Still not sure how valuable that is, it's one of 365 days.

In addition to the problems other people have pointed out, it just doesn't have comparable specs to something like Ampere's Altra or AMD's Epyc.

24 CPU cores and 192 GB of memory might be enough for a small company's single on-site server, but those will likely want lots of storage and not want to deal with an exotic platform. Anyone who's willing to deal with ARM and macOS on a server will likely want a lot more performance per 1U.
Hi! Honest question, why did decide on using pulomi instead of just using the boto3 Python library to interact with aws? Feels like it adds a lot of overhead where something like boto3 could just be abstracted away?

The most unbelievable thing about that case was that Google actually deleted data instead of keeping then forever and use for ads.
I would create new pseudo elements:

.container:gap { background-color: red; }

This will allow for more fancy backgrounds (e.g. dotted or gradients) and using { padding: 2px } to set whitespace at ends of the seperator.

Possible with a :gap-horz and :gap-vert (or whatever css like to name it) to get seperate vertical and horizontal gaps.

Also: .container:gap:nth-gap(2n) { color: blue; } to get alternating colors.
I look forward to that. When you say, NIO, what specific changes would you make to use virtual threads instead? Could you give a small code example?

I see your point, but also consider that interactivity comes to mind in part because 3d models are so expensive to describe compared to 2d shapes that they're largely worth it for interactive stuff. We might see more innovation on that front with a low-cost barrier to entry.

Plus, scaling dynamic lighting up has always been the Big Bad of computer graphics, and precomputation will always give us an amazing heuristic to use against it. Everything else basically tends towards not mattering: we can only absorb a finite number of details, but we live in a world with virtually infinite lights.
YAML's problems:

* Very easy to write the code you didn't mean to, especially in the context of CI where potentially a lot of languages are going to be mixed, a lot of quoting and escaping. YAML's string literals are a nightmare.

* YAML has no way to express inheritance. Nor does it have a good way to express variables. Both are usually desperately needed in CI scripts, and are usually bolted on top with some extra-language syntax (all those dollars in GitHub actions, Helm charts, Ansible playbooks etc.)

* Complexity skyrockets compared to the size of the file. I.e. in a language like C you can write a manageable program with millions of lines of code. In YAML you will give up after a few tens of thousands of lines (similar to SQL or any other language that doesn't have modules).

* Whitespace errors are very hard to spot and fix. Often whitespace errors in YAML result in valid YAML which, however, doesn't do what you want...

The Finnish version of Excel used to have all of the functions translated to Finnish (in late 90s when I was doing Excel for living). It was literally impossible to do anything with it as none of the documentation knew about the translated functions and it was very hard to self-translate the functions (as in there was mostly no logic in the Finnish function names thanks to the way Finnish language works).

What was supposedly done in good faith to make it easier for non-English speaking Finns to do Excel functions ended up making it impossible for everyone. If you didn't know Excel then =IF() was just as cryptic as =JOS() and if you did know Excel then you couldn't figure out why =IF() didn't work. At least .xls files were compatible because apparently functions were saved as opcodes and not as strings.

I haven't used non-English software since so no idea if Finnish Excel still has translated fuctions. Hope not.
Interesting. When I tried Zellij I found that the menus were too much in my face, compared to tmux/screen more minimal design. I see how this is a good thing when you start using it but I wonder if it gets tiring in the long run, in a clippy sort of way.

But yes it makes sense that this feature makes it superior to tmux for some users. A good case for having diversity in software.

> The plainly explained point is that democratic backsliding is gradual. The road to 20 million dead isn't someone suddenly declaring "we are the baddies", then a week later they start digging the mass graves.

This is so important and so often overlooked. The Nazis took power in 1933, but the persecution of e.g. Jews ramped up very gradually. At first, it was mostly boycotts and prohibiting Jews from working in government jobs. In 1935, they were stripped of citizen rights. In 1938, Jews had to change their names and carry a mark in their passport and Jewish children couldn't attend school anymore, and later that year Jewish shops were systematically destroyed and many Jews rounded up and imprisoned. But it wasn't until the start of WWII in 1939 that mass killings actually started taking place, and only in 1942 at the Wannsee conference was the holocaust as we know it today actually planned.

Many Jews stayed in Germany until it was too late because they didn't think that it could get worse.
Because few ever write diagrams in SVG. SVG is an output format, not an input format, and asking for a diagram in SVG is asking for the model to translate whatever you're asking about (e.g. names of systems you expect the model to know, like AWS, or regular code that needs to be turned into a diagram) into some hidden diagram-ish form, and then generate an SVG out of it.

Can't see it working without letting the model output an intermediary form in PlantUML or Mermaid or Dot - going straight to SVG is cramming too much work into too few tokens.

For the same reason, textual diagram formats are better for iterative work. SVG is too open-ended, and carries little to no semantics. Diagramming language are all about semantics, have fewer degrees of freedom, and much less spurious token noise.

> so you cannot conditionally defer anymore.

I think you can, for example this way:

- declare a function pointer variable cleanup
- initialize it with no_op
- call defer ‘call cleanup’
- if, inside a block, you realize that you want to do
something at cleanup, set cleanup to another function

That’s more code, but how frequent is it that one wants to do that?

One thing this doesn’t support is having a call into third party code defer cleanup to function exit time. Does golang supports that?

CleanMeUp – AI-Powered Storage Cleaning
Hey HN,

I got tired of running out of storage on my iPhone, so I built CleanMeUp, a simple AI-powered storage cleaner. Most apps I tried either didn’t work well or made me go through everything manually, so I wanted something that just cleans up the mess instantly.

It helps with things like:

* Finding and removing bad photos and junk files automatically.
* Clearing third-party app cache (WhatsApp, Instagram, etc.).
* Doing everything on-device, so nothing leaves your phone.

It’s been a fun project, and I’d love to hear what you think. Open to feedback, ideas, or just a chat!

The Norwegian ISO3166 code colliding with the English word 'no' is not a YAML problem per se, I've been bitten by that a few times in other situations as well.

For example: Stripe uses constants for types of tax registration numbers (VAT/GST/TIN, etc.). So there is EU_VAT for European VAT numbers, US_TIN for US tax identification numbers, etc. But what value to use for tax-exempt organisations that don't have a tax number? Well... guess how I found out about NO_VAT...

On the bright side, I did learn that way that although Norway is in the Schengen zone, apparently they are not part of the EU (hence the separation of EU_VAT and NO_VAT). I guess the 'no' name collision has taught many developers something about Norway :-)
