It’s difficult to measure religion’s overall impact, since it has had both positive and negative effects, and I’m not interested in engaging in speculative “what if” scenarios. From my perspective, moving beyond a singular religious influence has been beneficial because it allows individuals and communities to develop norms and policies based on wide-ranging human needs and evidence-based reasoning rather than strict dogma.

If you believe a particular group is inherently superior and that anyone can join it simply by following arbitrary rules, then our discussion ends here. Such a view indicates an unwillingness to seriously consider broader philosophical questions.
Kudos for trying!

> That’s when reality hit me: only one person signed up for the newsletter. Just one. It was a painful but clear signal—I hadn’t validated the idea properly.

I'm always confused by the industry and people at large about validation and "failure". What failed? Is it the idea or the execution or the end product or? I see so many inaccurate "experiments" deemed as failures when it's not the same thing.

> I envisioned a platform that would aggregate this information and generate useful analytics and summaries for teams.

Some form of this is a "success". There's been at least a few companies that have raised funding (and/or still making lots of $$$) in this area. So did the idea / the problem you see "fail" or something else? Why does it have to be an outright failure? Perhaps a different form of it would work for example. Maybe the newsletter is the issue. Who knows?

The final version of the Kinect, called "Azure Kinect" was based around the ADSD3100 time-of-flight sensor from Analog Devices. The Kinect has since been abandoned by Microsoft. However, Analog offers a match-box sized module ADTF3175 integrating the ADSD3100-sensor, optics and VCSEL (940nm laser illuminator) with MIPI 4-lanes output. A devkit [1] also exist and is available from mouser, digikey, et al.

The idea is this. If you can save US$50M by employing an extra $1M to increase bureaucracy, why wouldn't you and take the savings as a windfall?

Unemployment hasn't really picked up, and is unlikely to do so, unless the central bank is incompetent. (They have been from time to time.)

However, some advances don't show up in GDP. Eg Wikipedia is a tremendous achievement. But nobody pays for it, so it doesn't show up in GDP statistics.

> For example, the German "Ich sehe die Frau mit dem Fernglas" (I see the woman with the binoculars) is _unambiguous_ because "die Frau" and "mit dem Fernglas" match in both gender and case. If this weren't the case, it could be either "I see (the woman with the binoculars)" or "I see (the woman) with [using] the binoculars".

My German is pretty rusty, why exactly is it unambiguous?

I don't see how changing the noun would make a difference. "Ich sehe" followed by any of these: "den Mann mit dem Fernglas", "die Frau mit dem Fernglas", "das Mädchen mit dem Fernglas" sounds equally ambiguous to me.

To me, a startup is defined by Equity. Everyone has part ownership in the company, and that motivates them differently than a 9-to-5 employee at a Fortune 500 megacorp.

Nobody is seeking promotions, or stability. No managers are knocking on your cubicle asking for TPS reports. Nobody is setting deadlines or asking you for estimates. No GANTT charts (good Lord no!).

Instead, everyone is autonomously working toward getting the product to profitability as soon as possible so they can cash in their equity and move on to another fun startup.

If you end up taking this further and self hosting a model you might actually achieve a way faster “frame rate” with speculative decoding since I imagine many frames will reuse content from the last.

> I'm not entirely convinced this type of iterative gap finding and filling is really much different than natural human learning behavior.

Take some artisan, I'll go with a barber. The human person is not the best of the best, but still a capable barber, who can implement several styles on any head you throw at them. A client comes, describes certain style they want. The barber is not sure how to implement such a style, consults with master barber beside, that barber describes the technique required for that particular style, our barber in question comes and implements that style. Probably not perfectly as they need to train their mind-body coordination a bit, but the cut is good enough that the client is happy.

There was no traditional training with "gap finding and filling" involved. The artisan already possessed core skill and knowledge required, was filled on the particulars of their task at hand and successfully implemented the task. There was no looking at examples of finished work, no looking at example of process, no iterative learning by redoing the task a bunch of times.

So no, human learning, at least advanced human learning, is very much different from these techniques. Not that they are not impressive on their own, but let's be real here.
If the success of secular societies is attributed to their Christian roots, it raises the question of why nations with large, active Christian populations aren’t even more successful.

Perhaps the key isn’t Christianity itself, but rather the move away from any one religious framework.

By broadening our focus to the well-being of all citizens, guided by compassion and inclusivity rather than a singular religious authority, societies can foster more equitable systems.

This shift encourages diverse perspectives, evidence-based policymaking, and a shared commitment to improving everyone’s quality of life.

is it though? the senate has been ~50-50 for a decade straight and every 2 years this same algorithm fueled coping mechanism resurfaces for some partisan recovery (newsflash - the other side believes the same thing, no matter which side you're reading this from), and there is zero - and diminishing - data to lean upon for anything different to happen except every demographic in this country drifting right for a 53 seat majority.

no party is going to pass the filibuster, so it doesn't even matter what happens in the house, we're still going to be getting budget reconciliations, and post offices renamed as the only things passed.

Ask HN: Are there any money-saving hacks that AI can assist you with？
AI Agents are becoming increasingly powerful – they can search online, make phone calls, and engage in ongoing communication with humans to solve complex problems.

So, think about this: are there things you know could save you money, but you don't do them simply because your time is too valuable and it doesn't feel worth the effort?

Perhaps these are the perfect tasks to delegate to AI Agents.

If you rephrase that to tools which deals with what the endpoints emits there is a boatload. Most emits JSON but XML can be found as well.

Personally I use jaq. Gojq is nice as well. Both. Inspired by the original ja. You can find many lists[1].

I would especially point out jid[2] which often comes in handy to explore apis.

Or if we stay at the http calling level and the command line: wget or fetch.

If you include scripting languages then most http libraries will do. With Python a simple approach would be "python -m json.tool".

I won’t let a friend start development in Elixir.

Let me get it out: I love BEAM. OTP is awesome and one of the best systems in its kind. I was completely enamored with Elixir years ago as a modern Erlang which excited me to the bone.

It’s no longer the case. When you get into non-trivial things there are many sharp edges and paper cuts. Some from the top of my head:

- it’s impossible to disable warnings - test runs are often highly verbose because libraries ignore them and (as discussed somewhere in forums) warnings are deemed useful so they can’t be disable

- the only way to catch some, important ones, in CI is to use "warnings-as-errors" …

- so one cannot use deprecation flags because it’s also a warning

- when having non trivial ecosystem one cannot selectively deprecate and get errors, this has to be a human process (remember to replace…)

- when doing umbrella tests on non compiled code seed influences order of compilation

- this order of compilation influences outcome and can lead to buggy code

- dependency compilation is not parallelized - takes a lot of time and uses 10% of CPU

- compilation process can break and Elixir isn’t aware that it was interrupted - this means that it doesn’t try to compile properly app/dependency but instead tries to release crippled one

- documentation is hard to use - searching shows random versions and there isn’t even a link to „open newest”

- searching in docs often not finds the keywords you can actually see

- a lot of knowledge is implicit (try checking if you can dynamically add children to a Supervisor)

- sidebar with new ExDocs break for some reason so there is no navigation

- there is no way to browse navigation outside this broken ExDocs which outputs only HTML and LSP

- LSP is afterthought, there are few but neither works well

- Dialyzer/dialyxyr typespecs are useless most of the time

- Squiggly arrow works weird (i.e. ~0.3 might catch 0.99) - my colleague recently mentioned Renovate not picking it up

I could go on and on. I’m doing plenty of research so I’m working with various languages including „niche” ones like Prolog, OCaml, Clojure, Cuelang. Recently I’ve been developing tooling in Go and many core systems are developed in Rust in Elixir, and I work on the latter often.

In principle Elixir is awesome, but has the worst developer experience of all. Sometimes it takes 4h to prepare and push release. Tooling I’m working on can do the same in 5 minutes - I’m parallelizing processes in containers, making idempotent output artifacts and heuristic failure detection to retry on flakiness. When switching between Go and OCaml you can sense how tooling cares for me and my time. Often I bounce off forums where people’s need are shrugged off as non-essential, treating those who came as uneducated juniors (because who in sane mind would like to have a parallel dependencies compilation or disable compilation time warning).

There is nothing better than BEAM, but (for me) Elixir got much worse over the years.

> I hope they aren’t stupid enough to do that with their GPUs (again).

They have to keep the GPU part alive, if only to be able to compete with AMD. It's no surprise that both the PS5 and Xbox run on a CPU+GPU combination from AMD - if Intel wants to ever get a share of the console market again (which is admittedly low margin, but extremely high volume to make up for it) they have to be able to match the kind of degree of integration that a modern console requires, and seriously I doubt that Intel will hand over enough knowledge to NVidia to get a competitive offer.

In the non-server general compute market, the situation is similar. The ARM threat all comes with established GPUs as part of the SoC, and so does AMD.
I'd be fascinated by the full matrix, of US/CA/UK/IE/AU/NZ/SG/EU

I think the core would be US/CA/NZ-or-AU/UK. The AU/NZ/UK axis probably still shares some practices. AU is increasingly driven in US trends, but hires NHS staff who want out of the UK. Its my belief people who dont like the CA model wind up drifting south because $ but culturally AU/NZ/UK would be a better fit.

A lot of the specialities in AU seem to run as restricted entry guilds. They're keeping the lid on numbers for reasons I cannot fathom. A lot of the candidates have english as a second language it might relate.

Well once you've stated that the president is immune and can pardon whoever for whatever, there's really not much to do. The US needs a new constitution to enforce this, otherwise the very concept of justice cannot exist.

RISC-V is the most recent manifestation of the RISC insight -- and long term the most important one, mostly because it's non-proprietary and designed from the start to have room to grow and evolve.

> if anything over the past 30 years have shown CISC won performance computing. That is everything from PC, Smartphone or all the way to server.

That is simply untrue. Smartphones and tablets are fully (or 99.99%) running on RISC -- Arm64 is a far more pure RISC than the original Arm32 was. Apple is doing great with its RISC-based M1/2/3/4 Macs.

Amazon introduced the first low end Graviton instances (same cores as a Raspberry Pi 4, but with up to 16 cores) in November 2018 and by 2022 they were reported to make up 20% of AWS capacity. They are quite likely 40% by now. Something like 90% of the top 1000 AWS customers use at least some Graviton instances.

> We need RISC for embedded and stay embedded.

Who is "we"?

And .. waaaaay too late for that.

> Right tools for the right job. We need to stop the constant ideological / fashion / hype fighting in tech space and more good old fashioned proper engineering.

Absolutely.

Which is why many of the best and most famous engineers in the business are now at RISC-V companies.
