It's interesting that you used "wants" in the first sentence and "needs" in the second.

Not saying that you're totally wrong, but I think this difference is not necessarily a deliberate decision by individual engineers, or caused by personality or skill level.

The employee market demographics surely play a role, but this is about concretions, not generalizations.

There is no lack of (often poor) generalizations when it comes to the skills and requirements demanded by BE and FE roles, respectively.

Not wanting to dismiss your idea / the grain of truth. But IMO you are falsely generalizing.

Also, there are not only FE devs claiming to be "full stack" when they don't know HTTP basics.

There are also BE developers with similarly daunting knowledge gaps.

Or in other words, in both worlds there are juniors masquerading as seniors and the other way around, depending on the organization.
If the US is planning on stopping the thing that made them OK in the first place, why do you think they would be OK after?

That’s also before you get into the fact that stopping immigration into the US doesn’t make those people disappear * , they’ll immigrate to other countries or stay home may very well cause some countries with a declining population to stop or reverse that trend

* Not en masse anyways, that’s come later as more of a final solution
I can only assume that delaying the search for another eight-ish months will only widen the search area when they do resume the search, which will make it even more challenging to locate the wreckage due to ocean currents and seabed shifts.

With multiple searches failing despite advanced technology over the course of (more than) a decade, I personally think that it’s hard to believe MH370 will ever be found.
The new Nvidia developer workstations (believe they are much cheaper than full DGX systems) are definitely interesting.

I have a desktop with a Titan XP (somewhat similar to your Titan X). If you look up LLM performance however these older GPUs (even with enough VRAM) do quite poorly. They still hold up great for gaming and many other GPU hungry tasks though.

Personally I think a really cool setup would be something like a modern MacBook Pro with a ton of RAM and high core CPU that could be plugged into an external GPU enclosure when needed. Depending on LLM needs you could be upgrading the external GPU and still use the power efficient laptop on the go.

Because they also believe the development of superhuman machine intelligence will probably be the greatest invention for humanity. The possible upsides and downsides are both staggeringly huge and uncertain.
Sounds like a good argument for a carbon tax!
For the market's aren't the economy crowd: I agree, and even to the extent it does say something about the economy, it is noisy and often inaccurate.

However, there are a few counter arguments. When markets really tank, it does impact businesses directly: companies can sell stock to raise capital, that's really the main reason for going public, and having stock valued less means you can sell it for less, so you either have to sell more stock, or have access to less cash. Also a lot of people get some portion of their salary in stock options, so they'll be getting less money. And companies often care about their stock price, so if it is tanking, they may do things like lay people off, make less risky decisions (investments), etc... which will have a direct impact on the US economy.

Also, markets are forward-looking, so a major selloff here isn't an indication of always what has happened, but often is an indication of investor sentiment regarding the future of the economy (or specifically, the performance of companies that they own shares in).

Anyway, I wish I was able to just sit back and watch this! I wish we could all do that, because it's going to be really interesting, but the unfortunate reality is this is going to cause a lot of pain for a lot of people - and not just in the US. Hope everyone holds up OK.
OK, but then we need a common standard. If Facebook is allowed to use libgen, I should also be allowed.

Bad? Nah. I would use the words "exciting or "annoying" as it was annoying to wait but exciting as you were edging closer to playing with new software.

I worked with him in the 90's at SCO and we became friends based more upon music than tech.

He was an early adopter of a kludgy midi bass which he insisted I play but we had lots of laughs at how ridiculous it was.

He visited us in NM about ten years ago and voraciously consumed my wife's pumpkin waffles like he had not eaten for days. Which, knowing him, he likely had not.

I called him MTaht since that was his email handle at SCO.

Many other tales to tell but I will stop.

I am shocked at his passing too soon.

Happy travels, amigo!
iFixit also sells batteries although I have no idea how good they are. I thought their toolsets were decent value for the money though (and they'll probably be around as a company for awhile).
Show HN: Trip Mate – Find cheap one-way camper van relocation deals
Hey HN,

I built Trip Mate after discovering that rental companies often offer extremely cheap (sometimes even free) one-way camper van trips when they need their vehicles relocated. These deals were scattered across multiple rental platforms, making it tough to find them efficiently.

The most interesting technical challenge was creating robust scrapers for multiple rental platforms, each with its unique data structures and quirks. I solved this by developing a flexible scraping framework in Python combined with PocketBase for storing and serving the data in real-time. The frontend uses Next.js to provide a smooth user experience with instant notifications via Telegram or Discord.

I actually found a rental trip myself using my scraper and took it!

You can try it now for free and without signing up.

I'd greatly appreciate your feedback and am happy to dive deeper into any technical details!
Mistaking model for meaning is the sort of mistake I very rarely see a human make, at least in the sense as here of literally referring to map ("text"), in what ostensibly strives to be a discussion of the presence or absence of underlying territory, a concept the model gives no sign of attempting to invoke or manipulate. It's also a behavior I would expect from something capable of producing valid utterances but not of testing their soundness.

I'm glad you didn't write that paragraph by yourself; I would be concerned on your behalf if you had.
A violent crackdown against who? The people who stormed the capital and assaulted police officers?

Even AG Barr said there was no evidence of widespread fraud. The “plausible evidence” you speak of was a firestorm of unsubstantiated claims on social media that incited a violent attack on the capital.
But we don’t have tariff regimes. That what a common market means. It doesn’t mean that you can sell the same product to everyone. It just means that you can move that product everywhere. And even the regulatory regime is overwhelmingly European (that’s why you get manuals in 20 languages)
Building an Efficient GPU Server with Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090s/5090s
Why are you attempting to technically analyze a simile? That is not why comparisons are used.
Well, if I want to first understand the basics, such as “what do the letters OSINT mean,” I’d think the homepage (https://osintframework.com/) would tell me. But alas, it does not, and a simple chatgpt query would have told me the answer without the wasted effort.
We solve that partially by running the base state and the delta version through concurrently. This way most types of impact will impact both at the same time. This gives us the relative delta between versions.

Other than that, just like always, run benchmark on a stable dedicated set of hardware.
You could also try turning off hardware acceleration although that might kill performance.

Not sure if the T470S had the Nvidia option but disabling Optimus (and going either fully with the Nvidia chip or integrated intel GPU) can also solve issues sometimes
Prayer would just do nothing.

>But, it's no miracle.

All I can say to this is fucking good!

Lets imagine we got AGI at the start of 2022. I'm talking about human level+ as good as you coding and reasoning AI that works well on the hardware from that age.

What would the world look like today? Would you still have your job. With the world be in total disarray? Would unethical companies quickly fire most their staff and replace them with machines? Would their be mass riots in the streets by starving neo-luddites? Would automated drones be shooting at them?

Simply put people and our social systems are not ready for competent machine intelligence and how fast it will change the world. We should feel lucky we are getting a ramp up period, and hopefully one that draws out a while longer.
No. His argument is definitely closer to LLMs can't generalize. I think you would benefit from re-reading the paper. The point is that a puzzle consisting of simple reasoning about simple priors should be a fairly low bar for "intelligence" (necessary but not sufficient). LLMs performs abysmally because they have a very specific purpose trained goal that is different from solving the ARC puzzles. Humans solve these easily. And committees of humans do so perfectly. If LLMs were intelligent they would be able to construct algorithms consisting of simple applications of the priors.

Training to a specific task and getting better is completely orthogonal to generalized search and application of priors. Humans do a mix of both search of the operations and pattern matching of recognizing the difference between start and stop state. That is because their "algorithm" is so general purpose. And we have very little idea how the two are combined efficiently.

At least this is how I interpreted the paper.
That is a much better comparison.
thx for the pepp, appreciate it <3

This doesn't make any sense to me. No media is getting copied, unless the drawing is exactly the same as an existing drawing. Shouldn't "copy"right apply to specific, tangible artistic works? I guess I don't understand how the fantasy of "IP" works.

What if the drawing is of Indiana Jones but he's carrying a bow and arrow instead of a whip? Is it infringement?

What if it's a really bad drawing of Indiana Jones, so bad that you can't really tell that it's the character? Is that infringement?

What if the drawing is of Indiana Jones, but in the style of abstract expressionism, so doesn't even contain a human shape? Is it infringement?

What if it's a good drawing that looks very much like Indiana Jones, but it's not! The person's name is actually Iowa Jim. Is that infringement?

What if it's just an image of an archeologist adventurer who wears a hat and uses a bullwhip, but otherwise doesn't look anything like Indiana Jones? Is it infringement?
This assumes the difference in tariff stays consistent while you are setting up your multinational supply chain. The truth is that nobody has any idea what Trump will say tomorrow, never mind next quarter.
> What interest do they have in preserving it?

A good question. It is quite possible that they don't – that a different segment of the population has that interest.
>The scary thing is: I have seen professional human developers write worse code.

This is kind of the rub of it all. If the code works, passes all relevant tests, is reasonably maintainable, and can be fitted into the system correctly with a well defined interface, does it really matter? I mean at that point its kind of like looking at the output of a bytecode compiler and being like "wow what a mess". And it's not like they can't write code up to your stylistic standards, it's just literally a matter of prompting for that.
At the very least, if a professional human developer writes garbage code you can confidently blame them and either try to get them to improve or reduce the impact they have on the project.

With AI they can simply blame whatever model they used and continually shovel trash out there instantly.
Not OP but how much you are looking for that?

But we moved beyond LLMs? We have models that handle text, image, audio, and video all at once. We have models that can sense the tone of your voice and respond accordingly. Whether you define any of this as "intelligence" or not is just a linguistic choice.

This is another silly against AI tools - that doesn’t offer useful or insightful suggestions on how to adapt or provide an informed study of areas of concern and - one that capitalizes on the natural worries we have on HN because of our generic fears around critical thinking being lost when AI will take over our jobs - in general, rather like concerns about the web in pre-internet age and SEO in digital marketing age

OSINT only exists because of internet capabilities and google search - ie someone had to learn how to use those new tools just a few years ago and apply critical thinking

AI tools and models are rapidly evolving and more in depth capabilities appearing in the models, all this means the tools are hardly set in stone and the workflows will evolve with them - it’s still up to human oversight to evolve with the tools - the skills of human overseeing AI is something that will develop too

> I keep hearing this, over and over again. But I plug in my Magic Trackpad to my GNOME desktop and it works fine.

Yes, Linux will -- in many cases -- work as well with accessories as any computer will in ways we'd largely have expected 20 years ago. The integrative cases I noted are something different. For example, the Continuity support between Mac and iPad/iPhone/Apple Watch. If you don't use those things, it isn't a huge deal, but if you do, it's not appetizing to give them up.

> We'd need a new Linux if you Mac pundits ended up writing all the rules for us.

The good news is Linux is free/open source. So, someone could do exactly what I'm advocating for in the article and not detract from the Linux experience from people who don't want that. In fact, it'd probably benefit all Linux users, because it would increase support from software developers, etc.

I can't imagine anyone being surprised that we've ended up with Trump et al. When all you offer is un-actionable thoughts and cowardly status quo, no one will listen to you. Meanwhile, the cohort of disenfranchised, disposable people grows around you until they fear the status quo more than they fear change.

I can't speak for everyone obviously, but my anti-AI sentiment in this regard is not that IP law is flawless and beyond reproach, far from it. I'm merely saying that as long as we're all required to put up with it, that OpenAI and company should also have to put up with it. It's incredibly disingenuous the way these companies have taken advantage of publicly available material on an industrial scale, used said material to train their models "for research" and as soon as they had something that vaguely did what they wanted, began selling access to them.

If they are indeed the output of "research" that couldn't exist without the requisite publicly available material, then they should be accessible by the public (and arguably, the products of said outputs should also be inherently public domain too).

If they are instead created products to be sold themselves, then what is utilized to create them should be licensed for that purpose.

Additionally, if they can be used to generate IP violating material, then IMHO, makes perfect sense for the rights holders of those IPs to sue their asses like they would anyone else who did that and sold the results.

Again, for emphasis: I'm not endorsing any of the effects of IP law. I am simply saying that we should all, from the poorest user to the richest corporation, be playing by the same rules, and it feels like AI companies entire existence is hinging on their ability to have their IP cake and eat it too: they want to be able to restrict and monetize access to their generative models that they've created, while also having free reign to generate clearly, bluntly plagiarizing material, by way of utilizing vast amounts of in-good-faith freely given material. It's gross, and it sucks.
I maintain the idea that we should shift to monthly shifts in time. Six up and six down by 10 minutes. Wasn't exactly tenable for a long time, as that was a lot of clocks to change. Modern times have most people not even realizing that their phones and such updated last night. Just the odd "why is the oven wrong this time?" Followed usually by "why do we even have a dumb clock on the oven?"

My argument remains that this gets closer to how sundials worked, where the natural shift in the amount of sun you get in the day automatically shifted people's behaviors. With the major grant that I did not appreciate how much the sun changes throughout the year until I lived further north.

I also fully grant that this has a snow ball's chance in hell.

I think one of biggest problems the American voter has is two fold: 1. We have turned politicians into celebrities/heroes. ALL politicians are just like most of us: they are flawed and incomplete individuals who desperately try to hide their flaws. (Under normal circumstances, this isn't so bad. However, to be an elected official with all that power, it's fraud at the very least.

2. Once elected, we refuse to hold the politicians we elected to almost any accountability. (This is very hard to do, no doubt, because of the way the laws have been manipulated to stop this very accountability.)

As for religion in politics: I'm a devoted Christian who is sane enough to know that not everyone will believe the same as I do. I have one vote on election day, to manipulate other people's vote by having my candidate changing laws to thwart the constitution is theft and immoral. (As difficult as it is to say, Christians today should read 2 Peter Ch2, taking it to heart. Stop only glossing over the cheerful faith verses and start reading the one's that call for accountability.)

That's the problem. The new norm will be 10x of pre-AI productivity, nobody will be able justify hand-writing code. And until the quality bar of LLM's/their successors get much better (see e.g. comments above looking at the details in the examples given), you'll get accumulation of errors that are higher than what decent programmers get. With higher LOC and more uninspected complexity, you'll get significantly lower quality overall. The coming wave of AI-coded bugs will be fun for all.

What people don't discuss about the taxation is that rich people will universally pundit, preach, undermine, subvert, and squirm out of any law to tax themselves more. If you are preaching more taxes thinking it will affect the politically well-connected, it will be unwound and castrated by the politically well-connected. Or just deflected into somebody else's responsibility.

In that case, someone else is going to be holding the bill that you might not have intended.

I hate discussion of percentages, because every percentage seems reasonable by itself. It's the summation of the percentages that politicians have no interest in discussing.

In fact, it should be a requirement of government to sum the percentages of federal,state,medicare,social security, sales, resort, fuel, local levies, internet sales into one effective percentage that a given citizen in a given city has to pay.

Has anyone calculated that number for themselves? I've been collecting all my transactions and taxes to figure out what percentage of my income actually goes to taxes.
