That's advice specifically for official images, and it dates back before multi-stage builds. Most people are not building official images. Most people benefit from clear encapsulation and separation of concerns. The Dockerfile sets up the environment to run the provisioning script, and a provisioning script does the actual provisioning. Official images are different because usually the provisioning script is hidden in an OS package installed with e.g. apk add (or are we going to pretend that OS packages are bad practice for the same reason?).

He gives people permission to be their worst selves.

When the president gets away with all sorts of crime. When he openly mocks people. When he indulges in racism. When he complains about being treated unfairly. When he lies. When he defrauds, or grifts, or flip-flops. When he's misogynitic. What's he saying is "you too can do these things and get away with it".

People like that. People like that there's no accountability for bad behavior.

Sure, we can talk about policy, or economy, or whatever (how's that working out?) But deep down the democrats ask us to be the best version of ourselves (or else) and Republicans delight in us being the worst.

We don’t want a race to the bottom when it comes to agricultural products. American products are cheap but they suck. Ours are better but more expensive. Making American crap expensive is good for us. That’s a good use of tariffs: avoiding flooding the market with inferior products at the cost of local made.

You also cant actually legally own most Chinese stock. IE "internet" stocks. What you can buy is an instrument intended to track them. Its called a VIE.

That Alibaba stock you have? No, its a share from a seperate company setup in the Cayman Islands which should track the Alibaba stock. They are circumventing a Chinese law that makes foreign investment in Chinese companies illegal. It's a bad idea to own these.
Because he can, and because "owning the libs" is the whole modus operandi of the Republican Party that put him there. Seems obvious to me that the reason Trump uses tariffs is simply because that's the only tool available to him to exert his power.

Tariffs let him wave his dick around. Cutting taxes requires passing legislation. Raising other taxes requires passing legislation.
I don't think there's a good way to structure it in our current economic system. The only solutions I can't think of are more socialist or universal basic income. Essentially, if AI companies are going to profit off the creations of everyone in the world, they might as well pay higher taxes to cover for it. I'm sure that's an unpopular opinion but I also don't think it's fair to take an art style that a creator might spend an entire life perfecting and then commoditize it. Now the AI company gets paid a ton and the creator who made something super popular is out on the streets looking for a "real" job despite providing a lot of value to the world.
Many EU countries have done the same in recent weeks. This is less about putting diplomatic pressure, and more about warning people to avoid traveling to the US due to real danger.

At this point, I do wonder if long-dated (2-3 months) American-style Puts are a good idea.

The weirdness of this administration has created a lot of volatility. With American-style options you are allowed to exercise early, so if you think there's going to be a ton of ups and downs in the next few months, I wonder if this could be lucrative.

I might try this just as an experiment with one of the cheaper options.

CYC's aim to capture common sense knowledge is admirable, but its symbolic approach seems limited. Modern AI's success with statistical learning on massive datasets suggests an alternative path. Integrating the two approaches - symbolic knowledge representation and data-driven learning - could be a promising direction for AI reasoning.
How is this legal??
I'm not settled on transcribed conversation being an adequate substitute for writing, but maybe it's better than nothing.

There's something irreplaceable about the absoluteness of words on paper and the decisions one has to do to write them out. Conversational speak is, almost by definition, more relaxed and casual. The bar is lower and as such, the bar for thoughts is lower, in order of ease of handwaving I think it goes: mental, speech, writing.

Furthermore there's the concept of editing which I'm unsure how it could be carried out in a conversational sense in graceful manner. Being able to revise words, delete, move around, can't be done with conversation unless you count "forget I said that, it's actually more like this..." as suitable.
I don't get this reasoning. Without LLMs I would learn how to write sub-optimal code that is somewhat functional. With LLMs instantly see "how it's done" for my exact problem case which makes me learn way faster. On top of that it always makes dumb mistakes which forces you to actually understand what it's spitting out to get it to work properly. Again: that helps with learning.

The fact that you can ask it for a solution for exactly the context you're interested in is amazing and traditional learning doesn't come close in terms of efficiency IMO.

Sowing or stirring up doubt or implicitly initiating a conspiracy means you don't have an argument for crypto.

Bitcoin can never be a Pix replacement. It's too damn slow, and others have pointed out, having to manage the entire transaction history is just stupid. (A end customer might not have to do serious book keeping on transaction history, but companies would.)

Pix works great for Brazil. That's what it was intended to do. And that's what it does. Case-closed.
It may be possible for you (I am assuming you are > 20, mature adult). But the context is around teens in the prime of their learning. It is too hard to keep ChatGPT/Claude away from them. Social media is too addictive. Those TikTok/Reels/Shorts are addictive and never ending. We are doomed imho.

If education (schools) were to adopt a teaching-AI (one that will given them the solution, but at least ask a bunch of questions ), may be there is some hope.
It also makes it easy for Chinese manufactures to circumvent tariffs. Completely pointless theater for the MAGA crowd.

You will never convince any of his apologists that this is the case.

His first round with Canada back in February, and MAGA insisted "he won"

Then came back and tried the same thing again two months later. Same response from the Canadian side. Same slight backing off, reorganizing, but confusion, and nobody seems to actually know which tariffs apply and which do not.

It sounds now like 10% for the whole world, but still 25% steel and aluminum and other tariffs on Canada, the US's biggest trading partner and customer? How insane is that?

They're "flooding the zone" with confusion and chaos, and making money in the process. Anybody who wants to maintain power and influence and money has to get close to him, avoid criticizing him, and then they get the inside scoop.

Ask HN: Strategies or tools for embedding multiple file types?
I've worked a good bit with embedding strategies for RAG. But they've only been for documents that are identical in structure i.e. interview transcripts.

I'm curious how others have thought about handling embeddings for multiple file types (txt, pdf, image, docx, ppt, etc.)? Obviously, I could handle each file type individually and then build a flexible search layer on top, but I'm concerned about the level of maintenance required.

One idea I had was to build a translation layer of sorts that would take some arbitrary file type in, map it onto a standardized text schema, and embed that. For images (which are much less common in my dataset), I would use an LLM to describe the image and cast that text into my standard format. The standard format would allow me to simplify the chunking and embedding logic for each file type, and make the vector search layer a lot easier to maintain.

I know this won't be perfect, but I think it could solve most of what I'm trying to achieve.

Curious what others think about this and what you have tried.

When you say "buddies" what you really mean is "banks", "hedge funds" and "people to whom it was obvious that announced tariffs were bonkers". If you had the foresight and market sense, you could have made money, too. But you were scared, sold low, and now when it came back up, you suddenly found yourself at a loss (or the so-called "unrealised profit")

Don't blame the markets.

Well, it's a good thing I didn't say "fundamentally unable to learn this"!

I said that learning visual reasoning from video is probably not enough: if you claim it is enough, you have to reconcile that with failures in Sora, Veo 2, etc. Veo 2's problems are especially serious since it was trained on an all-DeepMind-can-eat diet of YouTube videos. It seems like they need a stronger algorithm, not more Red Dead Redemption 2 footage.
Querying and ORM are very different concepts. Object-relation mapping is concerned with, as it literally asserts, mapping between relations (or, more likely in practice, tables – but they are similar enough for the sake of this discussion) and objects. Maybe you are confusing ORM with the active record pattern (popularized by ActiveRecord, the library) which combines query building and ORM into some kind of unified concept? ActiveRecord, the library, confusingly called itself ORM when it was released which may be the source of that.
The market is huge but the actual capital is held (or at least controlled) by relatively few (probably more rational than average) people, no?

We'd probably need more background to help you, eg, are you currently a student? In what country? Assuming you're in the US, there are still some interesting things the Fed does wrt to payments, eg Fedwire, but getting into anything public-sector-related will be difficult at the moment. You could check out DCI at MIT Media Lab [0], they have some interesting projects in this space (eg Hamilton). If you're in a different country, most central banks are currently looking at CBDCs in some way. Many central banks also employ nationals of other countries, so you can cast a wider net than looking at just one country. In the private sector, there are several companies and/or academic groups that have helped smaller central banks set up their own CBDCs already, eg Cambodia uses Hyperledger with the help of some Japanese groups [1]. Word is that Polygon is also active in that space, but I don't have any references otomh. Larger countries will do a lot of development in-house. They will likely get outside help from the likes of Accenture or IBM. These could be good destinations themselves, but only if you're happy to be be working on something else most likely.

I also made an app to fix my scrolling issue — it’s called EvoCat.

The idea came from wanting to combine the best parts of all the focus apps I used: scheduled block sessions like Opal, mindful breathing interruptions like One Sec, and some light gamification to make it feel less like punishment.

EvoCat is a small animated character (a cat-phone hybrid) that evolves as you stay focused. The longer you avoid distractions, the stronger it becomes — and the harder it gets to cancel your focus sessions. It turns screen time control into something a bit more playful, but still effective.

I currently have a beta available on iOS and I’m happy to share a TestFlight link if anyone wants to try it out.
You can also check it out here: https://evocat.app

Would love feedback from fellow builders and focus-app nerds :)

There is still a piece of truth to it. If I warehoused anything but dollars as a "fractional reserve", the first time the system fails (as the banking system has many times even under the federal reserve most notably in the great depression) I would be prosecuted for fraud/theft/ whatever they could come up with when I explained I had only lent out the inventory and I had hoped I would have enough around at any point in time to satisfy anyone withdrawing. People would be angry and the sentiment would be quite popular.

Before the federal reserve existed and banks did fractional reserve on their own, after a failure it would be quite common for them to be accused of being crooks. Even if what they were doing was basically the same as what the federal reserve does but done privately. The banks ultimately colluded in a secret meeting under assumed identities with legislators (on Jackyll Island) to just to cartelize the system to hedge that risk, and the vote was rammed through before the public knew of the meeting or could react (and later written this was done on purpose because they knew it was democratically unpopular and would fail under transparency).

Markets are celebrating. How long before they realize that the China tariffs will destroy the profits of companies like Walmart, Apple, Dollar Store, Harbor Freight, etc, and a 10% tax hike on consumers across the board on all other imports? We are still headed for a recession, and the destruction from the greatest deal maker who ever lived will be lasting.

US is the biggest consumer market, the most dynamic economy, and the wealthiest country in the world. No real world metric would ever implicate US as uninvestable. What this move is doing is making a few things very clear

1. US is decoupling full on from China. Any ally negotiating will have to show that they are not helping china to export, by putting up similar tariffs on China. Basically, declare your allegiance. And so far, no one has unexpectedly sided with China.

2. For the laggards who are waiting until the last seconds to move away from Chinese supply chain, trump is giving them more time but also telling them, hey it’s your last chance

3. Short squeeze for those who dare attack US economy

4. Navarros is the chief architect and his vision is aligned with trump to fully execute his plan. Just go read his book, he lays it all out

Do we think FTX would have been prosecuted if Trump were in office? Note that if FTX were able to hide its fraud for a few more months, they would have been able to bounce back and then some. Not saying that makes it better or worse, but a few months of questionably legal delay tactics would probably go over fine these days (is my 2 cents).
