Same reason you would always see the same top comments on reddit during a certain era.

And your ellipsis could also be one! …

Supports IPv6 just fine? Absolutely not, they have the worst IPv6 implementation of the 3 large clouds, where many of their products don't support it, such as their Postgres offering. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44881803 for more.

Yes:

The challenge with AI in open source security has transitioned from an AI slop tsunami into more of a ... plain security report tsunami. Less slop but lots of reports. Many of them really good.

I'm spending hours per day on this now. It's intense.

They may be production-ready in some sense but they're not ready to be put in Firefox, and/or they are v8 bindings.

Do you mean standups as part of Scrum? Scrum dictates several other meetings.

STT services that have been around for longer, like Azure, Google and Amazon, generally require you to request a specific language, and their quality is a lot higher than models that advertise themselves as LLMs (even though I believe the clouds are also using the same types of models now).

If the electric grid cannot keep up with the additional demand, inference may not get cheaper. The cost of electricity would go up for LLM providers, and VCs would have to subsidize them more until the price of electricity goes down, which may take longer than they can wait, if they have been expecting LLM's to replace many more workers within the next few years.

Groq doesn't keep that money, it goes to VCs. They claim the company is "pivoting", not "selling" and avoid the payout trigger.

You do have a point there. I did forget about the [-].

However, I read the comments in hopes they are interesting. If we have a culture where the "I don't know what this thing is"-type comment is popular, people will post those comments more and more. This leads other people to spend their time replying to it, instead of engaging with the content of the article. In other words, it distracts other commenters, who might otherwise have contributed something good.

Second, I think having low value comments is undesirable by itself. We could all start posting "First!" on articles, and everyone who hates that can simply minimize them. I think you can see why that would not be great. We can argue whether this is a low-value comment but I already did that in my original reply: it is not addressed to the article author (in this case they happened to show up but generally they don't) so the complaint doesn't lead to anything, and the comment complains about having to read about a concept they are not familiar with, but does the exact same thing itself.

When can we be done with these cheap comments? It has really become tiring to have a comment tree on every HN post for people who don't know what the article is about. As the author often didn't submit their own article it is just a complaint with no possible resolution. Instead of taking a few seconds to find out what the article is about and maybe even clarifying it for your fellow readers, you are taking that time to write a comment that only detracts from a possible conversation.

If you can't bring yourself to search for 5 seconds and find out what an article is about, maybe you just close it and move on.

You can use Tailscale to connect services together (not just someone's laptop to a service, replacing OpenVPN), but what if Tailscale has an outage? Will my services not be able to find each other anymore?

Yes

Your definition what is an ethical issue is reductive. It means the issue involves ethics, and they are obviously involved. Even if ultimately society at large would benefit from the disappearance of certain jobs, that can still create suffering for hundreds of thousands of people.

Yes. The beta is discussed in the replies.

I'm inclined to believe what 'mitchellh wrote:

"The Liquid Glass effects are not expensive and anyone claiming they are has no idea how modern GPUs and animation work. Anyone saying it is is either just parroting or is an idiot."

I think "just as pop-sci" is a bit generous. https://x.com/C_Kavanagh/status/1956336194352230570 explains it better than I can.

Given that they are probably at least partly on Azure, this makes it less surprising because Azure has the worst IPv6 implementation of the 3 large cloud providers.

People say this a lot, please the board. But why would so many boards be hype-driven and CEO's be rational? It might just as well be the C-suite themselves who are the source of it.

Keep in mind that though it is often claimed that SQLite is DO-178B certified, they do not claim that themselves, they merely say DO-178B-inspired: https://www.sqlite.org/hirely.html

And while Airbus confirmed they are using SQLite, they did not claim they are using it in safety critical parts, which D. Richard Hipp confirms here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18039303

There has arisen this strange obsession on this website with every page having to explain what a project is about. This makes some sense for the marketing of the project, if there is for example a new version of some software. But for a personal blog it really does not. If a reader of a technical website is incapable of searching for "openbsd pf" then maybe they are indeed inadequate and are better off reading something else.

Yes. You are also probably doing interesting work.

For a single user, email signup is easy. But if they were to offer it they would also need to offer it to business customers. That means they have to build a role system and link that to AD etc. That is why they don't have it. (Their CEO discusses this in a recent interview).

It has become a sport here to criticize titles for not explaining any random thing the commenter doesn't know. Generally these things are either in the article or they are very easily findable with a single web search.

I have no thoughts on whether it's actually fake, but it can be to appear financially healthy / boost company image, to gather resumes, to gather information about the job market, to comply with internal policies that say jobs most be posted externally even when planning to promote internally, etc.

the White House recently took down its paper about the future of programming being memory safe

They took down all of https://www.whitehouse.gov/oncd/, what makes you think they gave any thought to this paper in particular?

I think the Azure Document Intelligence, Google Document AI and Amazon Textract are among the best if not the best services though and they offer these models.

So are you mostly processing PDFs with data? Or PDFs with just text, or images, graphs?

Isn't that Nuance product EOL?
