Apache Superset switched many of their interesting charts over to ECharts:

Yeah you can customize them a bit.

What I've always wanted to be able to do though is restyle the actual DOM element as it animates from one part of the screen to another. Unless this changed pretty recently, my understanding is that the browser is basically grabbing a screenshot of the DOM element before it navigates and animates the snapshot itself across the screen.

I've also run into random issues related to having to tag the element targets. I don't remember all the details now so I can't give a great example, but especially when using libraries like HTMX I was having issues trying to make sure the right elements were tagged to animate correctly.

Conditional animations can be done, though its a little odd to wrangle and you can end up with code mixed between HTML, JS, and CSS to work with it.
Ok, do you write tests? If you do, you are already employing analyses :).

The interesting bit about a test is that it's inexpensive to create and you can create it within the context of your system after you know the problem. You do not download it from the web. You create it in context and then, when even a single test fails you might stop and fix that one. Why? Because it reveals something you consider valuable.

Now, tests answer functional questions, but the same idea can be applied to any other kinds of analyses. The key is to have them created within the system. If you download an analysis from the web, they will be solving some problem, just not yours, so it will not look interesting.
Superset[1] BI tool is a good example of how useful ECharts are

we use eCharts for all the visualizations in https://www.definite.app/.

We evaluated pretty much every option and it's the best non-react option. Recharts honestly seems a little nicer if you're using React, but our frontend is in Vue.

It's related to my ISP not supporting IPv6. I don't have time to explain this in detail, but at least that's one angle of it that you might want to explore further.
One of the few upsides of Crypto is that it provides a constant reminder of why we have banking regulations. Anytime says regulations are onerous or slow down the process and are outdated you can point to our current day poorly regulated crypto markets and show them what it could be like instead.
I didn't see evidence of cheating in the article. Having a slightly differently tuned version of 4 is not the most dastardly thing that can be done. Everything else is insinuation.
To me, this is one of the most frustrating parts of this type of ML. If we could actually track the steps taken in the LLM, it would be trivial for the judge to evaluate the output of each intermediate and detect when reward hacking is taking place.

I wonder if there's any alternative other than trying to build the perfect judge for every single test case.

> russian gas is cheaper is russian propagandist lie.

That's not true. It is cheaper. Logically it makes absolute sense, as it is cheaper to transport through a pipeline than tankers and there is no other pipeline in Europe that can cover what russia used to provide. That's why countries that import Russian gas have significantly cheaper household natural gas prices [1].

I'm not going to get into the bribe tangent. As long as russian gas is cheaper, that will be the biggest reason to buy it IMO.

Switching energy source takes years and huge investment. The big problem is that a lot of households rely on natural natural gas for heating, and a lot of them can't afford to switch.

If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe, and if you want to be able to right-click and/or highlight some text in your child's school's communications app you must first start a company, find funding money, hire developers, develop a go-to-market strategy, A/B test, pivot, pivot again, and eventually maybe release a product or maybe just get bought out.

The number one rule in tech, if you aren't paying you are being manipulated and someone else has the power behind the seen. I'd rather the un-elected people with great control over my government WERE paid by the government.

I would think that, if AI-generated content is inferior, these games will fail in the marketplace.

So, where are the games with AI-generated content? Where are the reviews that praise or pan them?

(Remember, AI is a tool. Tools take time to learn, and sometimes, the tool isn't worth using.)
Standardization is a huge benefit if as here you can actually standardize so that things become interchangeable. e.g. I went out for an impromptu dinner yesterday, two different people had phones which were low, a friend had a power bank, everything speaks USB C so it all just works. I think one of them was an iPhone? I don't remember the brand of power bank, it doesn't matter, everything uses USB C.

It's not useful where "standardization" means either writing a document everybody agrees but nobody actually implements, or, the document just says do any of six things but each vendor chooses differently, or worst of all the document says it's basically dealer's choice so in practice the standard was worthless. In these cases the "standard" is just a thin barrier to entry, no real benefit to consumers since they can't swap supplier.

This often means accepting that maybe the global standard isn't quite ideal for you in some sense, but must be enforced anyway.

It seems that they used CRISPR to make 20 modifications to 14 genes of Grey Wolf DNA to match the major characteristics of dire wold DNA samples from 13K and 72K years ago.

Evolution is a stochastic process operating almost entirely in the shadowy past, so the scientifically-responsible answer to this “why?” question is “we don’t know for sure”, I think we can all agree.

Moving past that to speculate though, I think Chomsky would point to two (surely somewhat syncretic) forces:

1. Evolution is not an exhaustive breadth-first search; even if an adaption would be advantageous, genetic affordances can make it unlikely on a finite timeline. Theres lots of speculation on why humans in particular were well-prepared to evolve language for internal deliberation and/or external communication, but it’s somewhat beside the point here.

2. Evolution works most quickly in reaction to environmental stressors. There’s something of a consensus forming around the importance of changing climates for our genus (i.e. why aren't there other apes in cold regions?), whereas birds were inherently afforded a much simpler answer to that stressor: migration.

All of that said, I think it’s important to highlight an under-appreciated fact: the only things we have ever observed using language are a) humans, b) possibly other Homo species like Homo Naledi, c) LLMs, and—as of the past ~week (!!!)—D) possibly Bonobos.

Lots of animals communicate using words/signs, and a majority (?) of plant & animal species signal to each other and others using scents, colors, shapes, body language, etc. But only the above four can intuitively synthesize those signs on the fly into contextual phrases — or, as Chomsky would say, “generate an infinite range of output from a finite range of inputs”.

It’s worth caveating that this is absolutely a subjective stance based on how you want to use “language”, and that a sizeable camp of linguists would disagree on that basis. But I think the underlying unique quality is important, so Chomsky is correct to single it out as “language” — otherwise, how would you even phrase the above question? Birds clearly have complex verbal and visual communication already, and “better communication” is vague and unsatisfying, IMHO.
So you want a file system data store that distributes the data over the nodes you own in a sort of dynamic P2P way?
Depends on what serious means here. In financial/wire fraud, the police often need support from the victim to collect sufficient evidence. If the victim does not cooperate, the case could be dropped due to lack of evidence.

Murder is typically more serious.
I worked on a project once that was a complete mess, they outsourced the QA of the product and the off-shore team was creating hundreds of dupe reports for each issue they found. Out came the burn-down charts, used as justification for requiring weekend work for the whole team.

I got tired of this and grabbed a couple other devs and split up the jira bug backlog between us, and we started closing out dupes and non-repro tickets, after about two days and thousands of tickets closed my manager angrily came over to my cube and demanded I stop because "it was making the company look bad".

Sometimes the best option is not to play.
I'd argue that it's not intelligence alone that lets us land a machine on the moon — it's our cooperation, written language, learned culture, communication. An individual person cannot land a machine on the moon on their own. It is not intelligence that produces that, but intelligence contained and continually improved upon within a superorganism of social culture.

Hehe explain aesthetics from first principles sounds like demanding the equation that proves Mona Lisa is a good painting.

I mean you can argue aesthetics, but it’s a fact that in the western world, a suit is considered by everyone, more or less, to be more formal than T-shirt and jeans, and more formal is widely considered to be more dignified than casual wear. The first principles that matter aren’t aesthetics, they are more likely customs and class (socioeconomic status).
Huh. The article claims at least an order of magnitude more SLT modules than the reference I found. I think it is still quite a bit less than the smartphone, but that makes global compute at least closer.

Still, 55 years of doubling transistors at a given cost every 2 years is about a 190 million fold transistor difference for a given cost. Clock speeds have improved by a factor of 1000 on top of that. Even with performance tradeoffs for battery life in a smartphone, there is no surprise that the phone should have more compute power than the world did in 1970.
White House says 104% China tariffs take effect at midnight
It does in this context.

The goal here was stated as "prevent China from militarily taking control of Taiwan". It wasn't "occupy Taiwan/Beijing/wherever and deal with an insurgency".

The US left Vietnam due to lack of national willpower, not due to military defeat. Again, the problem statement here was formulated with "given a nationally united, determined US".

China, attempting to invade Taiwan and being met by the US military, would fare little better than Saddam Hussein's military did either time they went toe-to-toe with the US. The insurgency afterwards is not relevant to the discussion, as the US need not try to occupy China.
Show HN: Only health tech not monetizing your data. MYME Prelaunches today
Hey HN! We're happy to come here to announce MYME's pre-launch-induced-by-industry-news. While our full platform is set to launch in a few months, recent uncertainties around 23andMe ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43457666 ) have inspired us to offer early-access storage for your genetic data.

Our mission is simple: to give everyone a complete, accessible health record that helps healthcare professionals truly understand who you are and what works for you. We see your 23andme data as a vital part of this narrative, adding valuable context to your overall health story.

What is (or will be) this MYME? Simple! It is a health app designed to be your one-stop solution for managing your health. It will be the first solution made for the “patient” in the health tech space! You will own full control of your electronic health records (EHR). Think of MYME as your personal Data Lake for health data.

MYME was born after one of our founders was diagnosed with a chronic disease (and had to start keeping records of loads of health data) and his wife had to change the doctor that had been helping her treat her diabetes for more than 15 years. In both cases they needed detailed health records that were hard to get or downright non-existent or almost impossible to get (e.g.: a summary of more than a decade of consultations that were hand written). Those experiences showed how little control we have over our own health data, as well as how little of it is stored in a safe digital space.

Our platform will conform and exceed all regulations around personal data and health records. It will help you aggregate data from all places (e.g.: insurance, lab work, genetics, hereditary conditions, past and ongoing medication, etc) and then share with whom you trust (the doctor right in front of you during a consultation, for example). Our goal isn’t to sell your data but to harness its potential to improve care—all while ensuring it remains securely stored and entirely under your control.

Show HN: Astrocade - AI-powered game creation tool
Hi HN!

My startup has just launched a web demo of our tool to make 2D games with AI assistance. There are some other players in that space, but we are trying to make a truly codeless and casual platform for non technical people to make cool stuff.

I came to work on it after studying AI in grad school, and it's actually been two years since then... Classic statup journey stuff, lots of mistakes and lessons learned the hard way, so super rewarding to finally get a widely shared demo out there.

Would love feedback / for you to break it in creative ways so we can fix it.

Equity investments like this don't need to be repaid, so there isn't a legal obligation to repay them. Of course, there is an obligation to maximize shareholder value — but that is totally independent of the dollar amount invested.

When founders raise this much money, it's because there's (1) a lot they want to do and hire for, or (2) they don't want to worry about monetizing the product for a significant period and focus on growth or product development.

Investors expect that Tailscale will extract many multiples of their contribution from users.

If you'd like to avoid this extraction, you can fork their command line client code (along with the open source headscale server) and run a mesh network across your linux machines with all the magic DNS and userspace-TCP/IP-stack goodness that you're used to. Tailscale has given away a lot of the engineering for free.

However, as soon as your fork becomes incompatible with Tailscale's stack, you lose a massive value-add: proprietary platform support. Today, you can add the sale's guy's iPhone to your tailnet in seconds. If Apple's capricious automated AppStore security pulls the Tailscale app from the AppStore, Tailscale Corp is big enough to get Apple's attention. A small FLOSS group with some forked clients on github won't be able to provide this same operational stability.

The Rockefeller Center in general is such a vibe.

1. Done - so far - 12 new attempts, 12 new emails: 4 on gmail, 4 on protonmail, 2 on infomaniak and 2 on Tuta

2. Done - 12 diff exit points, in 12 diff countries, associated with each diff email (these also vary at times, by the intrinsic way the VPN picks dynamically servers in their exit points data centers). Used two diff VPN solutions: PIA and Mullvad (if that matters at all)

3. FF, Chrome, Brave, Safari (all on macos), Kiwi, Samsung Internet, Hermit and RIF (on Android) => changed the agent on a few, to match uniqueness of new email and new IP
