Ask HN: Where to Resell Cloud GPUs?
Recently came into a number of cloud GPU credits from a friend who works at a large cloud org.

I'm going to use a fair portion of them, but I've been told it's fine to resell them as well. These range from nVidia T4's all the way up to H100 SXM gpus.

It looks like very few services like TensorDock exist for GPUs like this. I remember there being some listings for GPU servers to be rented on a case by case basis on HN maybe 6-8months ago but I lost the bookmark.

Leave a comment if you might be interested in renting the GPUs for at least 8hrs at a time. Make me an offer for the GPU / hourly rate you're looking for.
That’s why getting DMA right mattered so much.
The Performant claim there is counter to research I have heard. Plus as the PGO profile data is non-deterministic in most cases, even when compiled on the same hardware as the end machine "Committing profiles directly in the source repository" is the reason why they are deleted or at least excluded from the comparison.

A quote from the paper that I remember on the subject[1] as these profiles are just about as machine dependent as you can get.

> Unfortunately, most code improvements are not machine independent, and the few that truly are machine independent interact with those that are machine dependent causing phase-ordering problems. Hence, effectively there are no machine-independent code improvements.

There were some differences between various Xeon chip's implementations of the same or neighboring generations that I personally ran into when we tried to copy profiles to avoid the cost of the profile runs that may make me a bit more sensitive to this, but I personally saw huge drops in performance well into the double digits that threw off our regression testing.

IMHO this is exactly why your link suggested the following:

> Your production environment is the best source of representative profiles for your application, as described in Collecting profiles.

That is very different from Fedora using some random or generic profile for x86_64, which may or may not match the end users specific profile.

If they can ignore due process in this case what's to say they cannot do it to proper citizens? It's clear they're probing their way into creating a blueprint to get rid of people critical of trump.
>> search is very important - to the point where effective search was one of the main focuses of the company's development.

THIS is what I really do not get.

Of course N=[small_numbers_somewhat_selective], but I have never encountered anyone who wanted anything other than good search. I have only ever heard complaints about the messy Amazon-style searches. In decades I have NEVER heard or seen a written comment about someone finding something great that 'just popped up' in an otherwise failed search. No one likes sloppy search or finds it anything but a waste of time and actually drives them away from the site.

Yet, clearly the search-enshittifiers have some data or usage pattern information indicating it works for them, or they wouldn't keep doing it. Does anyone know what this data might be?

I also don't know why they couldn't do both. Present the sloppy-search but have a small button to switch over to strict search (or even better, a McMaster-style search). I fail to see how that wouldn't be better, since I and everyone I know now actively work avoid Amazon and the like rather than work to try to find stuff in their shitty search. I came originally because it was easy to find stuff. Now, it is hard so I'm elsewhere
Judges have now ruled that suspected "expected beliefs" that are "otherwise lawful" is grounds for deportation, if those suspected thoughts are "antisemitic" (read- supportive of peace in Palestine).

They are literally arresting and deporting people for suspected thoughts.

Student visas are being denied based on social media posts.

This is fascism.
> But in my experience that's not what most are looking for in their apps.

What are they looking for (in your experience)?

In my experience, most people use an app (website) to solve some problem (buy something, pay taxes, whatever). They care more about functionality than how smooth the loading animation and transition was. Progressive enhancement seems like a very good way to build something people actually use (and rely on).
I thought 10.6 Snow Leopard is peak OS X?
Chimps and crows are documented using tools to make tools. Crows in particular can make compound tools. Orangs make cutting tools out of two rocks they pound together.

Neither tool use nor manufacture is uniquely human!
It's almost like we need a Twitter-style platform that also acts as an RSS reader!
You are entirely right to call me out on that. But I would like to say that sci fi that applied to computers, AI, automation, were just dreams of a different world, because those technologies hadn’t been exploited yet. Even many of the dystopias feel innocent with today’s knowledge of where it went. Such as 1984, imo.
No worries, at all I had figured you'd notice eventually. But I essentially agreed with you was just saying that common perceptions and how Erlang managed to do well there.
> AI tech and tools aren’t just going to go away, and people aren’t going to just not make a tool you don’t like

It could. Film photography effectively went away, dragging street snaps along it. If it continues to not make artistic sense, people will eventually move on.

Teams should identify their drivers of key metrics and do power user analysis based on this. A halfway decent analytics team should be thinking this way.

Ultimately, analytics are just a view into the business. This thread is complaining about doctors not using microscopes when diagnosing system issues - sometimes a narrow slice is important, sometimes you need to zoom out. If you focus on your "early adopters" or power users exclusively, without understanding how they affect the business, then you are at risk of building things that most of your user base doesn't want.

It happens to be the case that he's not a citizen or claiming to be a citizen, but he wasn't given due process, and there's absolutely nothing stopping them from picking anybody up off the street, claiming they're here illegally, and shipping them off to an El Salvadoran prison.

All people in the us, legal or illegal, citizen or not, have fourth amendment protections, and if you strip those rights from anyone, you remove them from everyone.
Yep, had a coworker who was looking for financing in a EU country, but very few investor options were available, and mostly for a low amount of money, only enough for a few months. He had to go to UK to find people with deep enough pockets.
NetHack does have ghost files (where you find the levels previous characters died on, including their ghost and their possibly-cursed loot). It's definitely not the same kind of progression as in modern rogue-lites, but it can be a boost to pick up the equipment you found on a previous run.
> European countries are generally more protectionist about working class jobs than professional jobs. If you have the education, skills, and experience, they assume that your presence would be good for the economy.

Yet somehow I've met barbers, janitors and vagrants who brag about tossing their passports on the way to the EU, while my Vietnamese neighbors (a practicing doctor couple in Vietnam), or American and Australian friends, found it extremely difficult to maintain their residency through legal routes, due to some non-issue. Some of them actually went to Dubai and Singapore, while the doctors ended up practicing in Switzerland instead.
Yeah, I'm sure a thousand lovely Horizon 2040 funded research projects that result in throwaway academic solutions to hyper-specific industry issues where the first MVP is shown after 5 years will come out of this.
It feels like Windows 12 will be riddled with AI stuff nobody wants and ads, and forced to be online and connected to Microsoft in some way.
And what about when `bar` takes several inputs? Postfix seems like an ugly hack that hyper-fixates on functions of a single argument to the detriment of everything else.

I'm a calculus teacher (at the moment, as I also teach probability and statistics some semesters). Students are aware of the existence of complex numbers from algebra, in the sense that teachers mention that there are guaranteed to be a fixed number of roots of a polynomial, but these roots might be repeated or complex. They hardly do anything with complex numbers outside this, and do not have enough treatment to define e in such a way.

In fact, it is practically assumed that elementary algebra students have not worked with complex numbers to the extent necessary to understand complex exponentials, due to the fact that complex exponentials are not algebraic.
You could say the same about all the Chinese and Indian people who are massively over-represented in these companies. Go into the FB Ads org and try to find a single all American team, lol. You'll have a hard time even finding one American to begin with.
TXR Lisp has this notation, combined with Lisp parethesis placement.

Tather than obj.f(a, b). we have obj.(f a b).

1> (defstruct dog ()
(:method bark (self) (put-line "Woof!")))
#<struct-type dog>
2> (let ((d (new dog)))
d.(bark))
Woof!
t

The dot notation is more restricted than in mainstream languages, and has a strict correspondence to underlying Lisp syntax, with read-print consistency.

3> '(qref a b c (d) e f)
a.b.c.(d).e.f

Cannot have a number in there; that won't go to dot notation:

4> '(qref a b 3 (d) e f)
(qref a b 3 (d)
e f)

Chains of dot method calls work, by the way:

1> (defstruct circular ()
val
(:method next (self) self))
#<struct-type circular>
2> (new circular val 42)
#S(circular val 42)
3> *2.(next).(next).(next).(next).val
42

There must not be whitespace around the dot, though; you simply canot split this across lines. In other words:

*2.(next)
.(next) ;; nope!
.(next) ;; what did I say?

The "null safe" dot is .? The following check obj for nil; if so, they yield nil rather than trying to access the object or call a method:

obj.?slot
obj.?(method arg ...)
They kind of are, but not in CUDA directly.

Did they, though? 2025 Netflix is extremely close to having a worse UX than piracy, and it's already far more expensive. Are people going to pay a fortune for Netflix when their handy nephew can hook them up to his far superior Jellyfin instance for a sixpack of beer?

It's a tragedy of the commons, really. The whole value is in having a complete catalogue available for the casual viewer, and making $10-$20 from someone wanting to watch a random decade-old movie twice a month or so. Break up that catalogue into twenty different services each charging $15, and that same casual viewer isn't going to subscribe to a single one of them.

If the streaming industry doesn't get its shit together they are either going to lose viewers to piracy, or to a completely different medium.
Himmelsbriefs started around the 6th century.
There are a lot of people I'd love to see content from on all of the platforms who aren't where I want them to be, for a variety of reasons. That's not really a great argument.
LOL - I can second that. There are a lot of memes about nothing screams more "Digitalisierung!" than having to send papers via fax.

Or having to carry cash coz a lot of places don't even give you the option to pay by card (even though this seems to come to an end, hello 2025!)
Remember that with the PS3 it wasn’t just multicore (which was new to game consoles that generation) but it was also heterogeneous cores. VERY heterogeneous cores.

There’s plenty of replacements which are fine. Many are better to use for many tasks. The problem is lock-in in professional contexts. Having a problem with some feature in a PSD? “I don’t wanna pay for Photoshop” isn’t usually an acceptable excuse.

If open source projects and other companies had gathered around an open file format, maybe there would be some leverage, but they all use their own formats.
> Do people not realize it's the Dems that got the US Trump?

The GOP has the power to stand up to Trump immediately with legislation or with impeachment. The Democrats are already on record as voting for impeachment. Trump has continued to do lots of stuff that is impeachable with lots of evidence. Had the GOP impeached Trump when they had the chance, they would have been rid of him by now.

In addition, with this last election, a bunch of idiotic people sat on their ass going "But they're both the same." or "I don't get into politics." As if their "status quo" status was somehow a virtuous deed instead of a disgusting malfeasance cloaked in laziness.

"It is the common fate of the indolent to see their rights become a prey to the active. The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt." -- John Philpot Curran, 1790

No they aren't, because they lack the polyglot support from CUDA and as you acknowledge the debugging experience and ecosystem sucks.
Having played both of these games I agree that Lorelei stands out as a sort of foil for blue prince. And my opinion is that that is a huge endorsement of blue prince. Lorelei’s puzzles felt so inelegant and largely detached from the ideas being explored. Felt like a logic puzzle book, with some esoteric story stuff on top that just did not keep me interested.

Blue prince’s rng is quite well thought out imo. Once you pick up on some of the unwritten rules about the room drafting system and start building strategies around what to prioritize and how to adjust your goals, it starts feeling a lot like many other popular card-based strategy games.

There are weak points, for sure, and your contrasting it with Lorelei makes sense. But Lorelei’s puzzles felt so plain and unchallenging. I like that blue prince is keeping me on my toes.
Fair enough, but the social media companies should be honest about it. Instead they brag hypocritically about free speech.

I disagree with you though. These global social media platforms have an incredible amount of sway over our society. As long as they have that reach, they should not be allowed to distort and silence.
Talk to some engineering managers. Their concerns are hiring people to get the job done. You can't easily hire devs for obscure languages like Erlang and Elixir. If you can find any that are looking for a gig they want too much money. On the contrary, if you are hiring for C++/C#/Java/JS/TS your problem is separating good from bad candidates but good ones are available.

Likewise, most devs don't want to learn an obscure language for one job even if they are more than capable. Either they get stuck doing that language or they earn a hole in their resume instead of additional experience in what future employers care about.

Finally, the vast majority of applications and systems don't need ultra high reliability and don't have the budget for it. It isn't clear that downtime impedes success for anything but the most critical businesses.
I’d much rather just pay the single time purchase prices they used to ask for. The subscription is only a “good deal” for the first 2-3 years, after which you end up paying more than you would have with the one-time.

The single time purchase also has the added benefit of letting me use that version however long I like. Personally I don’t need much of anything that’s been added since CS2, and as such a user I’d normally only be buying new versions of Photoshop when the one I own stops running on modern operating systems. It also means you’re not bombarded with UI shifting around for no good reason, some feature getting pushed in your face for the sake of some PM’s metrics, etc.

The only reason I even have a CC sub right now is because a credit card benefit essentially pays for it. If/when that benefit disappears so does my sub.
Agreed. And nowhere did I say that the problem is Trump. I was simply using current events as proof that we are already in a bad state.
> Because of this, banks have to publish the interest rate, compound interval, and annual percentage yield separately.

No, the way a subject is trough in school is not the reason banks have to publish all those numbers.

That a look at all the different ways accountant calculate compound interest, and you will see the reason. Anyway, when was the last time banks united to make some rule to make it easier for laypeople to understand what they do?

This is, honestly, an insult to convicted criminals, who can at least reform. Trump is not simply a convicted criminals, he shows no remorse for his actions and eagerly resumes his dubious and potentially illegal behavior at the earliest opportunity.
At least for all the surveillance the Chinese do - the standard of life is improving overall. We don't even get that shit here in the US. Our life just gets worse by practically every measure as the years go on and we're taken advantage of on top of it.

Claude Code thinks I'm camping
Sometimes you are remembered LLMs don't understand what's going on.

I've been using Claude Code for quite some time and it does a great job most of the time, especially for simple boilerplate and plumbing, or limited scope requests.

Now i'm working on some rust code that uses a library named bonfire and Claude suggests i add methods "startCamping" "stopCamping" "addCompanion" ...

/*
* Stop camping
* @return true if the state was changed, false if the user wasn't camping
/

/*
Add a companion to the bonfire

A modern reimagining of Windows 2000's UI - professional, simple, uncluttered, focused, no cheapening of the whole experience with adverts in a thinly-veiled attempt to funnel you into Bing - with modern underpinnings and features such as WSL2 would have me running back towards Microsoft with open arms and cheque book in hand.

To the downvoter: they do A/B testing and staged rollouts... nobody at that scale updates 100% in one go.
At Intercom we've also a lot of experience here.

I disagree, basically. In our experience actual real world processes are not compactly defined, and don't have sharp edges.

When you actually go to pull them out of a customer they have messy probabilistic edges, where you can sometimes make progress a lot faster, and end up with a much more compact and manageable representation of the process, by leveraging an LLM.

We've a strong opinion this is the future of the space and that purely deterministic workflows will get left behind! I guess we'll see.
I'd imagine it probably will get them to go to sleep, but mostly because they'll be watching a lot of walking up and down corridors.

> “But the one great shocking occasion, when tens or hundreds or thousands will join with you, never comes. That’s the difficulty. If the last and worst act of the whole regime had come immediately after the first and smallest, thousands, yes, millions would have been sufficiently shocked—if, let us say, the gassing of the Jews in ’43 had come immediately after the ‘German Firm’ stickers on the windows of non-Jewish shops in ’33. But of course this isn’t the way it happens. In between come all the hundreds of little steps, some of them imperceptible, each of them preparing you not to be shocked by the next. Step C is not so much worse than Step B, and, if you did not make a stand at Step B, why should you at Step C? And so on to Step D.

And one day, too late, your principles, if you were ever sensible of them, all rush in upon you. The burden of self-deception has grown too heavy, and some minor incident, in my case my little boy, hardly more than a baby, saying ‘Jewish swine,’ collapses it all at once, and you see that everything, everything, has changed and changed completely under your nose. The world you live in—your nation, your people—is not the world you were born in at all. The forms are all there, all untouched, all reassuring, the houses, the shops, the jobs, the mealtimes, the visits, the concerts, the cinema, the holidays. But the spirit, which you never noticed because you made the lifelong mistake of identifying it with the forms, is changed. Now you live in a world of hate and fear, and the people who hate and fear do not even know it themselves; when everyone is transformed, no one is transformed. Now you live in a system which rules without responsibility even to God. The system itself could not have intended this in the beginning, but in order to sustain itself it was compelled to go all the way.”

You have to say "No" loudly and clearly at the _first offense_, and not wait until it's too late.
I was expecting the answer to be "code size", since that's Tauri's largest concrete advantage. Instead it's because they want to be able to directly run performance-sensitive Rust code in the main process, and because Tauri has a built-in library for spawning sidecar processes that's slightly higher-level than what Electron offers, at least if you want the process-spawning logic to live in the renderer process.

The latter point seems real but kind of minor. For the former, I'm curious whether they considered using napi-rs or neon to call Rust code from within a Node.js process.
