> I wonder what, if any, HIPAA fines will apply to Blue Shield if they're found to have inadvertently exposed PHI.

Well, they have inadvertently exposed PHI - this press release literally admits that they did.

In terms of what fines will apply, well, the annual cap for violations is about $2 million per calendar year, but I doubt they'll have to pay even that.

You should write your operator. You are correct: it is quite straightforward and you'll have solid understanding of what is happening and how it works.

That is how this project started. We wrote custom operators for the various platform components; that worked outstandingly well. Shockingly well to be honest.

This system evolved from that approach because we needed a way to rapidly customize our application models. If you don't need to support varied use cases _and_ have standardization writing your own is the way to go.

If do not you think past research by OpenAI and Anthropic on how to use LLMs to generate code is relevant to how Anthropic LLMs generate code 3 years later I really don't think it is possible to have a reasonable conversation about this topic with you.
This is a good point, and part of the unwritten rationale of the argument I was trying to make.

At first glance, knowing how to spell a word and understanding a word should be perfectly orthogonal. How could it not be? Saying that it is not so would imply that civilizations without writing would have no thought or could not communicate through words, which is preposterous.

And yet, once we start delegating our thinking, our spelling and our writing to external black boxes, our grasp on those words and our grasp of those words becomes weaker. To the point that knowing how to spell a word might become a much bigger part, relatively, of our encounter with those words, as we are doing less conceptual thinking about those words and their meaning.

And therefore, I argue that, in a not too far-fetched extremum, understanding a word and knowing how to spell a word might not be fully orthogonal.

B&H is so good that I don't care when their online store is closed, I just come back later. That they are still in business (and flourishing, from what I can see) is proof that their service is so good that people are loyal.

Chick-fil-A is famously closed every Sunday, yet is one of the most successful restaurants.

How did you know their bot would decompress it? I thought a bot would copy the HTML content of your article, maybe the images, and paste them on their own website. At no point does it involve editing or decompressing files?

Impressive animation, by the way—the number of bots is staggering.
You could do something like t”Hello, {“name”}” (or wrap “name” in a class to make it slightly less hacky).

Marketing is generally exempt from massive legal review as they hand wave away "We don't deal with HIPPA data" and developers just wanting marketing to go away, dropped the Javascript block into files that were used for a ton of products including HIPAA containing ones.

I don't know why you're being downvoted, because this is unfortunately quite accurate. You'd be shocked how often this happens, even for tools they think are totally secure and "HIPAA-compliant".

> EDIT: Most of these places are just feature factories with offshore developers who are very unlikely to raise concerns.

I don't think there's any meaningful difference based on where the developers are located. The developers aren't the ones making the decisions. Usually the issue is that the higher-ups want it, which is why practices can continue even after concerns are raised.

New York court rejects AI avatar man uses to argue his defense.
I’m not convinced that a language level feature is worth it for this. You could achieve the same thing with a function returning an f-string no? And if you want injection safety, just use a tag type and a sanitisation function that takes a string and returns the type. Then the function returning the f-string could take the Sanitised string as an argument to prevent calling it with unsanitised input.

I guess it’s more concise, but differentiating between eager and delayed execution with a single character makes the language less readable for people who are not as familiar with Python (especially latest update syntax etc).

EDIT: to flesh out with an example:

class Sanitised(str):
# init function that sanitises or just use as a tag type that has an external sanitisation function.

def sqltemplate(name: Sanitised) -> str:
return f”select * from {name}”

# Usage
sqltemplate(name=sanitise(“some injection”))

# Attempt to pass unsanitised
sqltemplate(name=“some injection”) # type check error

So we are well on our way to turning python to PHP.

Edit: Sorry I was snarky, its late here.

I already didn't like f-strings and t-strings just add complexity to the language to fix a problem introduced by f-strings.

We really don't need more syntax for string interpolation, in my opinion string.format is the optimal. I could even live with % just because the syntax has been around for so long.

I'd rather the language team focus on more substantive stuff.

TCP vs. Audio EnginersSolveSameProblems
Network Engineers

We're seeing major packet loss. Throughput's down 60% and latency spikes are all over the place.

Let's check the window scaling parameters. Hmm, TCP window size is set too small for this bandwidth-delay product.

Good catch. And look at these retransmission timeouts - they're way too aggressive for this connection.

Let's adjust the congestion control algorithm too. We're using Reno but BBR would handle these variable conditions better.

I'll reconfigure the buffer sizes while you're at it. These micro-bursts are overwhelming our current settings.

Done. Let's monitor... throughput's climbing. Packet loss is down to acceptable levels.

Latency's stabilized too. Flow is balanced across all paths now.

Perfect! The TCP stack is finally singing in harmony.

------------

Audio Engineers

This mix sounds terrible. The vocals are getting buried, then suddenly jumping out way too loud.

Let's check the gain staging. Hmm, your preamp's running too hot and then the compressor is overreacting.

Good catch. And look at these attack and release times - they're way too aggressive for this vocal performance.

Let's change the compression algorithm too. We're using a peak limiter but a multi-band compressor would handle these dynamics better.

I'll reconfigure the EQ while you're at it. These sudden high frequencies are causing harsh spots.

Done. Let's listen... the vocal's sitting better now. Dynamics are natural but controlled.

The tone's balanced too. Everything's finding its place in the mix.

Perfect! The audio chain is finally singing in harmony.
Where Koreo excels is when your developer knowledge ends with a Dockerfile and your platform team is able to abstract service deployment away from them. Many organizations use a "god chart" to do such a thing but those will become cumbersome over time. Koreo's value prop also is greatly enhanced when paired with ACK or Config Connector as you have an organization specific DSL that will integrate your container runtime with your cloud resources. E.g. mount your rds address on your pod in one workflow.

I wouldn't say it was just that. The Ukrainians realized they were in trouble in 2014 when Russia lopped off Crimea, and ordered a painful introspective to highlight all the weaknesses of their military.

They spent 8 years overhauling their military and learning from invited western forces to prepare for an invasion that they hoping beyond all would never come. And it paid off in spades.

Agreed, although this doesn't work as well for HTML or SQL that doesn't fit on one line. Since having everything in a string literal is a little messy, and doesn't have the benefit of autoindent, syntax coloring, etc.

This is one place where s-expressions of Lisp make embedding these DSLs syntactically easier.

To borrow the PEP's HTML examples:

#lang racket/base
(require html-template)

(define evil "<script>alert('evil')</script>")

(html-template (p (% evil)))

; <p>&lt;script&gt;alert('evil')&lt;/script&gt;</p>

(define attributes '((src "shrubbery.jpg") (alt "looks nice")))

(html-template (img (@ (%sxml attributes))))

; <img src="shrubbery.jpg" alt="looks nice">

You can see how the parentheses syntax will practically scale better, to a larger and more complex mix of HTML and host language expressions. (A multi-line example using the normal text editor autoindent is on "https://docs.racket-lang.org/html-template/".)
Yes, you're welcome.

I'm from the Netherlands, middle-aged and have never met a person in my circles with a genuine hate of America or Americans.

There's plenty of critique on the state of US society, but that doesn't translate to general hate for any random American, unless you're intentionally provocative.

Likewise, we do not hate US products. It's just that in the case of food and cars, we have plenty ourselves of an equal or better quality.

Should you be conservative and drop a few of those views in casual conversation, I can assure you that this doesn't shock the average European. In fact, counter intuitively you may find out that progressive Americans are far more progressive than progressive Europeans. Culturally that is, not economically.

Do avoid obnoxious patriotism or bragging about the US.
I doubt that. People often say "without <person that started thing> we wouldn't have <thing>!" but it's nonsense. Someone else would have done it just slightly later.

That's okay for the base OS that doesn't change all that often.

However, that falls apart when you start trying to have lots of "toolbox"/"containers"/"docker" things that people want to use for development.

The DNFs you need inside the container pile up very quickly when trying to do development. Those want to be deduplicated between containers. There is a reason why Nix gets grief about how large its store becomes.

In addition, lots of people also want to containerize their working/home directory. That requires really good overlay support, and nobody has this right now.

There are LOTS of issues filed against "toolbox" for this, for example:
https://github.com/containers/toolbox/issues/183
https://github.com/containers/toolbox/issues/348
https://github.com/containers/toolbox/issues/1470

This is something that should be straightforward to implement. However, because the filesystem support sucks, it is not.

I can't believe people still buy the Purism scam after all these years...I ordered a Librem 5 and a Pinephone back in the days of the other supply chain story(Covid). The Pinephone flew in from China in less than 2 months; the Librem 5 took more than 4 years to arrive. All Purism offered during that time were "opportunities" to invest and exhausting delay stories about failing supply chains, while keeping their customers completely in the dark about their order state. Instead of preying on the goodwill of FOSS enthousiasts, they now try to tap into a new market (nationalism) to sell the same useless overpriced brick to.

The question asked why would people get angry about AI on an internet forum? The answer is that they don't.

This is a purely political move to suck up to the current administration. I'm pretty sure that at some point in the near-future, Llama will start telling us that, for example, the 2020 election may have been stolen — an assertion that has absolutely no basis in evidence, but that Trump and his cronies have manifested by screaming it over and over again. (See also: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43638616) When people hear this from Llama, they will believe it because they trust AI and don't check their sources.

Attempting to summarize your argument (please let me know if I succeeded):

Because we can't compare human and LLM architectural substrates, LLMs will never surpass human-level performance on _all_ tasks that require applying intelligence?

If my summary is correct, then is there any hypothetical replacement for LLM (for example, LLM+robotics, LLMs with CoT, multi-modal LLMs, multi-modal generative AI systems, etc) which would cause you to then consider this argument invalid (i.e. for the replacement, it could, sometime replace humans for all tasks)?
What would that actually accomplish?

White House Moves to Cancel Migrant's Social Security Numbers
This seems to amount to an attempt to change someone's legal status by manipulating the SSA database:

The effort hinges on a surprising new tactic: repurposing Social Security’s “death master file,” which for years has been used to track dead people who should no longer receive benefits, to include the names of living people who the government believes should be treated as if they are dead. As a result of being added to the death database, they would be blacklisted from a coveted form of identity that allows them to make and spend money.
Fair point. But it's a gray area because "should" only gets you so far. At some point, you have to start assessing their design against what's actually happening in the real world.
