Still a bit early but I'm working on kiwi, a k-dialect that can lower to Apple MLX.
Currently supports CPU and GPU on macOS and CPU on linux.
https://github.com/kiwi-array-lang/kiwi
Kiwi runs computations on small dense arrays in its own runtime, when they are larger it will lower to MLX CPU and eventually to MLX GPU when it is worth it.
As user you don't have to change any code, you just write k.
I'm sure there are other languages designed to take advantage of modern GPUs.
But even with SIMD you can get quite far with array oriented code and many array language implementations will make use of it (BQN, ngn/growler/k, goal, ktye k has a version with SIMD support, …)
> Siri fell behind due to how good Apple’s privacy is.
That makes zero sense.
The problem with Siri is... Siri. The interface itself.
Zero of my complaints around Siri have to do with it not being able to access my private data.
They're entirely about it not understanding my request in the first place or lacking a basic capability.
Corrected: a certain type of very loud and very online person in your audience hates AI art and thinks less of you for using it.
But that doesn't matter, because the game theory they outlined is directionally right. The cohort of people who hate AI art is relatively small. But the cohort of people who love it is even smaller. People can generally spot it, and most people are indifferent to it.
Having said that: I think it's also true that people are generally indifferent to any of the "casual" art in online writing and publications. It's overused and a crutch.
A hero image at the top of a post: good, can be great, do it, make sure it's not AI. But like, a random dinosaur giving a thumbs up in the middle of the post? Don't do that at all.
Most of the other regions are fairly stable. Ohio (us-east-2) is a great choice if you're just starting out. Not sure about ca-central-1, but I've never heard anything bad about it.
I have a lot of experience in this area (and some patent applications). For Alexa, the device established a connection back to the server and then kept that open, sending basically HTTP2/SPDY/Something like it over the wire after it detected the wake word. This allowed the STT start processing before you finish talking, so there is only a small delay in processing the last few chunks of your utterance.
The answer came back over the same connection.
In the case of OpenAI, they can't exactly keep a persistent connection open like Alexa does, but they can use HTTP2 from the phone and both iOS and Android will pretty much take care of that connection magically.
The author is absolutely right, a real time protocol isn't necessary. It's more important to get all the data. The user won't even notice a delay until you get over 500ms. Especially in the age of mobile phones, where most people are used to their real time human to human communications to have a delay.
(If you work at OpenAI or Anthropic, give me a shout, I'm happy to get into more details with you)
Hubris, an embedded RTOS-like used in production by Oxide, has ~4% unsafe code in the kernel last I checked. There’s a ring buffer implementation that has one unsafe, for unchecked indexing: https://github.com/oxidecomputer/hubris/blob/master/lib/ring... (this of course does not mean that it is the one ring buffer to rule them all, but it’s to demonstrate that yes, it is at least possible to have one with minimum unsafe.)
It’s always a way lower number than folks assume. Even in spaces that have higher than average usage.
> only 1 transmitter at a time per channel - across all WLANs, yours and your neighbours, with no deterministic way to avoid collisions.
That’s not correct. You and your neighbor can use the same channel at the same time. On your network, the transmissions of the other network appear will appear as noise. As long as the other devices are far enough away, however, your devices will still be able to make out their own signal.
If the masses can somehow point the absolute loose-cannon that is the current President at Google, things might actually change.

Why is this any better? It doesn't solve any of the identity and end-to-end encryption problems centralized messengers do; it just changes the underlying connectivity model, which is the least interesting part of the system.

D doesn't allow pointer arithmetic in @safe code. At first it seems like that cannot work, but it works very well. Pointer arithmetic is relegated to functions that are @system.

> In a functioning system the U.S. Supreme Court would step in and check the power of all legislatures to gerrymander
Based on what authority, and according to what standards? In Rucho v. Common Cause, the Supreme Court's holding was based on the premise that it lacked legal standards it could use to judge whether a map was gerrymandered or not. Researchers in that case proposed various mathematical approaches for creating compact districts, but the Court found that there wasn't an approach that would distinguish permissible from impermissible gerrymanders.
Subsequent research largely bore out that premise. https://gking.harvard.edu/compact/ ("The US Supreme Court, many state constitutions, and numerous judicial opinions require that legislative districts be 'compact,' a concept assumed so simple that the only definition given in the law is 'you know it when you see it.' Academics, in contrast, have concluded that the concept is so complex that it has multiple theoretical dimensions requiring large numbers of conflicting empirical measures.").
Legislatures today can use software that creates biased maps while meeting compactness criteria: https://journals.library.columbia.edu/index.php/stlr/blog/vi.... How do courts strike down maps as gerrymandered when you can use software to generate a variety of maps with very different partisan leans that all measure reasonably compact mathematically?
> Court has instead chosen to fan the flames by reducing barriers to gerrymandering. (whether racial or political party based)
Your characterization of Louisiana v. Callais is backward. That case struck down a racially gerrymandered map. In Louisiana v. Callais, the legislature originally drafted a pretty straightforward map: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:2025_Louisiana_congr.... The district court then ruled that the map had to be more gerrymandered, to create a second majority-minority voting district: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:2025_Louisiana_congr.... If you judge the maps according to mathematical compactness criterion, the additional majority-minority district in the second map totally flunks that test.
That is an area where the Supreme Court does have a concrete standard by which to judge whether maps are racially gerrymandered. Was race explicitly used to create the map? Then it's an unlawful gerrymander.
Reads kind of sales-pitchy. Every day we see another actively exploited Linux LPE; have you thought about your SBOM today?
We have a huge problem.
The US is at war. Much of the world is at war at the cyber attack level right now. The US, the EU, most of the Middle East, Israel, Russia... Major services have been attacked and have gone down for days at a time - Ubuntu, Github, Let's Encrypt, Stryker. Entire hospital systems have had to partially shut down.
Now, in the middle of this, AI has made attacks much faster to generate. Faster than the defensive side can respond. Zero-day attacks used to be rare. Now they're normal.
It's going to get worse before it gets better. Maybe much worse.
Human coders have the same problem too - oftentimes the most important question that future maintainers have of the code is "Why was this decision made?", but that's not captured anywhere in the code itself.
The right place for this is usually in the design doc or commit message, and robust engineering organizations will ensure that commits are cross-referenced back to design and requirements docs so you can trace decisions from git blame back to the actual rationale.
The same process also works pretty well with LLMs. Google, for example, is internally championing a process where the engineer has a dialog with the LLM to generate a design doc, oftentimes with an adversarial LLM to poke holes in the design. Once the design is fully specified, the last step is to ask the LLM to turn the design doc into code. This creates a human-readable artifact that traces the decisions that the human and AI collaboratively made, which then can be traced back from the code.
I adore roadside attractions. I have two key sources for finding them:
https://www.atlasobscura.com has a very high bar for inclusion. I fire it up anywhere I visit and see if there's something obscure and interesting to check out.
https://www.roadsideamerica.com has a very low bar - like a rock that someone painted pink and added googly eyes to and now it looks a bit like a pig. Any time I'm on a road trip I keep an eye on this (I use their inexpensive iPhone app) to see if there's anything worth a quick diversion.
This has been a very long time coming and the crackup we're starting to see was predicted long before anyone knew what an LLM is.
The catalyst is the shift towards software transparency: both the radically increased adoption of open source and source-available software, and the radically improved capabilities of reversing and decompilation tools. It has been over a decade since any ordinary off-the-shelf closed-source software was meaningfully obscured from serious adversaries.
This has been playing out in slow motion ever since BinDiff: you can't patch software without disclosing vulnerabilities. We've been operating in a state of denial about this, because there was some domain expertise involved in becoming a practitioner for whom patches were transparently vulnerability disclosures. But AIs have vaporized the pretense.
It is now the case that any time something gets merged into mainline Linux, several different organizations are feeding the diffs through LLM prompts aggressively evaluating whether they fix a vulnerability and generating exploit guidance. That will be the case for most major open source projects (nginx, OpenSSL, Postgres, &c) sooner rather than later.
The norms of coordinated disclosure are not calibrated for this environment. They really haven't been for the last decade.
I'm weirdly comfortable with this, because I think coordinated disclosure norms have always been blinkered, based on the unquestioned premise that delaying disclosure for the operational convenience of system administrators is a good thing. There are reasons to question that premise! The delay also keeps information out of the hands of system operators who have options other than applying patches.

I believe that increases the chances of one-shot code working, though it's also possible that it did that against Opus 4.5 and isn't necessary against Opus 4.7 but I haven't spotted the difference yet.
The kernel is a Linux kernel. The userspace is very different from a typical Linux distribution.

CoS is famous for working really hard to charge people who do any kind of vandalism or make trouble for them with hate crimes. So what might be a minor crime if you did it against an ordinary organization might get you in a lot more trouble against the CoS.

This needs a Lock Picking Lawyer attack on this lock. He'd be done in two minutes.
The trouble with this lock is that the removable key contacts the pins. Even though it's isolated from the outside when it's in contact the pins, you do get it back out after contact. So there's potential for impressioning.
A design where there's a level of indirection between the key and the sensing device would be better. Key goes in, and is read and the info stored. Key rotates further, and stored info is tested while the info storage mechanism is isolated from both the outside and the key.
Some locks like that have been built. I saw one with a column of steel balls for each pin. The key raises the columns of balls, depending on the bitting. The number of balls that are raised above the shear line then varies for each cylinder. That's the information storage device. As the key is rotated, the raised balls become isolated from the keyway. Then, protected from outside access, the columns of balls act as the key for an ordinary pin tumbler setup.
> So many security fixes are coming out now that examining commits is much more attractive: the signal-to-noise ratio is higher

This is the key. With AI, the “people won't notice, with so many changes going past” assumption fails.
Navin, don't leave a comment 'selling' the content. It's a good way to get people to assume it's a spam submission. Best to delete this and re-submit.
You laugh, but it's a real problem. In this case: a WP claim that Stoll was dead would quickly fall to the lack of reliable sources indicating his death; naturally, there's a WP policy for this.

I think the idea is sad and tragic, but also that we are at the point where we have no choice but to do something.
AI/LLM's have created a vector for abuse that previous tools are failing to protect against, and the problem is only getting worse.
I'm sick of the increase of LLM slop on websites in comments and posts. I'm sick of how fraud and spam and abuse can be increasingly automated in ways current tools can't catch. I'm sick of hosting costs exploding as hobby websites get hammered for no reason.
I don't realistically see any alternative but for some kind of reliable signal that a web request is most likely coming from a real person (not a perfect guarantee, but something good enough). Which means some kind of attestation that it's a real hardware device that costs at least a few bucks and is making human-level numbers of requests (not millions per day), or else some kind of digital ID attestation system.
And I much prefer device attestation that keeps you personally anonymous, as opposed to identity attestation that will inevitably allow the government to track your browsing.
So this seems like the lesser evil. If there are other ideas I'm very open to them as well, but I basically see something like this as a sadly necessary and inevitable evil. Something is necessary and this is less worse than the alternatives. And the fact that website owners choose whether to enable this or not means that those who want to keep an internet open to all devices and web requests can do so, if they're willing to handle the additional costs in handling abuse.
> GDP/capita is often a relatively useless metric in modern times.
"Often" is the wrong modifier. GDP/capita aligns very closely with material standard of living for the median person. If you look at the GDP/capita growth in India and China since 1990, or South Korea, Singapore, and Taiwan, since 1950, that reflects very real increases in material standards for ordinary people.
There's two, relatively well-understood situations where GDP/capita isn't reflective:
1) Countries where the economy is dominated by resource extraction or tourism 2) Tax havens
But it's pretty easy to tell whether one of these exceptions applies. It doesn't in the case of Poland, which has a broad, diversified economy with a high level of industrial production.
Yeah, this is about avoiding a decision, not trying to even pretend to be fair. The administration is betting the parents won’t escalate the issue.

> Every page you have ever visited knows at least this much. Most of them know more. None of them told you.
So? Why would I want the news site I'm visiting to "tell me" it knows my preferred language, that I'm using light mode, or the estimated location of my IP address...?
It's not surprising that a browser which renders text can be used to identify which fonts are available. It's not surprising that a browser which allows calculation with your GPU will identify your type of GPU.
The "without asking" framing is just silly. I expect to be asked for consent to use my webcam or microphone or exact precise location. But the last thing I want is to be asked for permission around detecting my local time zone or preferred language or my screen resolution or 20 other totally reasonable things for a website to be able to know.
Me neither, I just don't suffer from FOMO regarding latest titles.
I always wondered why it wasn't super easy to have a version specification in NPM that basically said "give me the latest version of this dependency as of X weeks ago". That is, hijacked modules usually were revealed within a week, and there are some groups (like security researchers) that are fine with being on the bleeding edge, but a lot of more conservative companies would rather hold back a week or two.
I know there are extensions and proxies you can set up that do this, but it just seems like it should be built in to NPM directly (maybe it has, I haven't been up on Node programming in the last couple years).
Which is exactly what tools like n8n, langflow, opal, workato and many other offer.

While I appreciate the retro aesthetic effect some blogs and sites use in dithering photographic images, I just don't think it works well on the modern web.
People are using too many different device sizes and device resolutions. Look at an image on a small mobile screen and it's basically converted back to grayscale. Or make the dithering so coarse that it still looks dithered on a phone screen, and it just looks horribly blocky and unclear on a desktop.
Also Hungarian change of government has cut off some of the "dark money".
I love when dialects for C and C++ count as being proper C and C++, are even argued as being more relevant than ISO standards by themselves, but anyone else that does the same, it is no longer the same language.

POSIX is a millstone around the neck of the software industry.
If you wanted to do something really new in operating systems, you might think "POSIX is insecure" or "POSIX is bloated", etc. If you have a fundamentally different API though you have to write a whole new userspace. You're going to put in a POSIX personality so you can run bash and vim and nethack but once you do that you have the insecurity, bloat, etc.
It’s a tragedy that scholars don’t study Singapore more to understand what it did right. When my dad was born in what was then Pakistan, Singapore (then part of Malaysia) was a poor country. Today it’s rich but the subcontinent is still poor. The best thing all these so-called “humanitarians” could do to improve the human condition would be to study Singapore to understand how that model can be translated to all the poor countries in Asia and Africa.
My sibling comment understates the critique. There is no such thing as "average IQ". Countries don't IQ test representative samples of their population, so hucksters like Richard Lynn just make shit up and pull samples from mental institutions (where IQ tests are used, as they should be, as diagnostics).
This is a pretty simple and obvious observation. Have you ever been asked to take a proctored IQ test to help establish the "average IQ" of your own country? Presumably not. So why do people keep getting took by this silly idea that "average IQ per country" is a thing?
That basically describes the US as well.

It's the natural result of "fire the bottom 10% every year".
If that's the rule in your organization, and you have a core group of people that actually know the systems and get the work done, you better make sure you have 10% padding every year, lest you layoff someone important and their friends all quit in disgust. And since competence and institutional knowledge is built over time, that implies a revolving door of new folks coming in and most of it not making it.

Maybe it's based on millions of years of biological differences in their capacities and functions (starting from body strength and role in reproduction), plus differences in social roles, of which some of the latter might be arbitrary, but some are necessary adjustments every historical society understood.
>You're building the future with new fresh people instead of the "dead weight"
If the "future" being built is one that those same interns would be dropped as "dead weight" as soon as they settle into families and refuse to be exploited with overwork, then it's a bad future, even if it's one with more CDN features.
Although, instead, it will be a more enshittified one anyway: they're cheapening your company and the product and lose organizational and operational knowledge in the process.
But the truth would likely be closer to that those fired would be a mix of mostly extra people hired plus some older employees. But instead of "we hired extra X less than a year ago, we shed X now", it's rebranded as "we reduce our workforce thanks to AI" to get possitive press and appeal to the less bright small-time investors.
What part of "We reviewed all relevant CVEs as they came out to make a call on if they apply to us or not and how we mitigate or address them" gave you that impression?

They used to, in the pre-cloud/SaaS era; and they were much simpler and better UX than the slop that they're renting today, because the actual users were not far from the developers.
I've seen plenty of people on HN claim that LLM's running on their phones is the obvious future in terms of not just privacy but also efficiency, i.e. better along every possible metric.
They don't usually go into much detail, but the impression I get is that they think data centers are energy monsters full of overheated GPU's that need to be constantly replaced, while your phone is full of mostly unused compute capacity and will barely break a sweat if it's only serving queries for a single user at a time.
They don't seem to give much thought to the energy usage per user (or what this will potentially do to your phone battery), or how different phone-sized vs data center-sized models are in terms of capability.
From the thread that ensued I feel comfortable that my interpretation of the comment (or rather, my confusion about it) was in fact germane.

I've absolutely heard eulogies that talk about stylish grandma was up to the very end. The could go on about how she never left the house without looking like she could have been ready for a photo shoot. How she brightened every gathering she was a part of, and even had this marvelous ability to pick the perfect accessories, including -- yes -- handbags.
You seem to be conflating two things that are different -- "fabulous taste", and "conforming/consuming". Putting together and accessorizing an outfit is an act of creation. Looking sharp is usually quite the opposite of conforming.
Remember that when you dress with style, you're brightening the day of the people who look at you, like a walking work of art. Some people look at it as vain, but other people understand it's making the world a more pleasant place, just like good manners or a helping attitude. If you can appreciate the way a tasteful statue adorns a park, you can appreciate the way a tasteful outfit -- handbag included -- does the same.
Even more incentive to pay up. I wonder if the timing was intentional or just coincidental.

I don’t think we can. Maybe we find some mathematics that let us build the model from first-principle parameters.

Not a lot of people were listening to it until he started to be considered a serious Presidential candidate.
I don't understand the distinction you are making.
Obviously they are based on current knowledge. Nobody has any actual crystal ball.
But the outcomes are with regard to future events. So the correct term is predictions.
And they don't "just summarize the current knowledge". The whole point is that they better reflect the knowledge of people who presumably know better because they are willing to put their money where their mouth is, and ignore the vast majority of nonsense. That's not summarization. That's judgment. That's the whole point.
