I had to turn down uBlock Origin filter mode, then it worked for me.

What if it’s not a catastrophic event, but technological progress just asymptotically approaches 0? What if there is a limit to layers upon layers of abstraction and at some point it just becomes too complicated to keep going?

Looking at history, there is not really an argument for progress to stop in the long term. I think I get what you mean, that further advancement gets more and more complicated and the human mind gets to a limit what it can comprehend and reason about. But lots of research and progress have been augmented by technology in the past 70 years or so, and I don't see a reason why it wont continue along that path. I agree that there is a limit to everything. But it is almost impossible to forsee when and where that is going to happen.

I always found arguments for or against such technological advancements meaningless, if we don't specify what timeframes we are talking about. Sometimes I have the impression that people who disagree are simply thinking in different timeframes. For me, only short- and sometimes mid-term timeframes are practical in such deabtes. Long-term is interesting, but more in the realm of science fiction.

In the context of AGI, is it inevitable eventually? Sure, I would agree, unless some catastrophic event puts back our technological advancement.

IMO, don't see the path to AGI with the current tech, though. All current SOTA agents are still LLM based with all their flaws (limited reasoning, generalization, incomplete world model, hallucinations, ...). At their core, they are still next token predictors with a limited context.

Most of the advances in AI in the past 2 years are in post-training and harnesses.

I'd expect a different core technology than just an LLM in order to get to AGI.

Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a new type of pixel that can not only be used to create images, but also to analyse them.

This could eventually be used for better in-display cameras where the pixels are used as a image sensors.

The researchers have published their results in Nature recently: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-026-10681-7

Which seems to be the case, according to tests from AISI which has access to Mythos: https://www.aisi.gov.uk/blog/our-evaluation-of-claude-mythos...

Actually VSCode Copilot does support (almost?) same plugin definition as claude code, https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/customization/age... . I just added my local copy of CQ's plugin directory to `chat.pluginLocations` and it seems to work just fine.

I did not yet test it with the copilot cli.

That's great. I've been using terminals for 20+ years, and never new about CTRL-U. Thanks! TIL.

If I set the scale value (150) to roughly the ppi of my screen (4k 27"), I can see the effect. You should see the rotating stars only in a small field of view (fov) where your eyes are focused and all other stars should seem to remain still.

Don't forget, "Lot of the code was written on a mobile phone using tmux and vim on a bus". That's crazy.

Even though I drink some alcohol as well, it think kind of sad that it has such a reverse association with not having fun. I am sure almost all people would have an awesome time regardless. It's very deeply ingrained in our culture and just the default behaviour when meeting in the evening.

The letter below the "Editing" label is an input field. You can change the current letter there.

It's not bundled. `uv format` will use the `ruff` binary and more or less run `uvx ruff format` behind the scene.

Congratulation on releasing this project, despite some of the criticism mentioned here.

One issue I encountered. I cannot seem to create lists containing works like Todo, Done, .... No error message is shown. Creating lists with random strings always work though.

It's definitely not related to the population's gun ownership ratio. I would say gun violence is probably comparable with our European neighbours. It's just way lower compared to the US.

Also, from my experience, there is not a clear trend whether companies in Switzerland want employees to keep working or if they just let them go during the notice period. I've seen many examples of both.

Never expected HN to explain to me what "evergaol" means, but here I am. Thanks :)

Wow, are these 7 RTX 4090s in a single setup? Care to share more how you build it (case, cooling, power, ..)?

Same here. But for the time being, I can just click away the modal (don't click any of the buttons) and the video starts anyway. I assume that will change soon.

`uv` is definitely not a wrapper. It's written from scratch. If you mean by wrapper that it's mostly compatible with pip (using `uv pip`), that's one of their adoption strategies to make it easier to switch to. But it does a lot more than that.

AFAIK 500 is the hard limit for dev instances, 10k is the limit of the free tier for production environments.

Btw, there is a stray semicolon on the signup page after the cardbox ;)

Congratulations on the launch!

Unfortunately, I got an error signing up: "You have reached your limit of 500 users. If you need more users, please use a Production instance."

Keep in mind that the study is conducted with schizophrenic and bipolar disorder patents that are on medications, are overweight and gained weight while on their current medication and ..."with at least one metabolic abnormality, such as insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridemia, dyslipidemia, or impaired glucose tolerance."...

Given this study design, I don't really find the results that surprising.

I am pretty sure the benefits of intermittent fasting beyond calorie restriction are not really supported by the latest science.

I am not saying it's bad; eating fewer calories has its benefits. However, the effectiveness of intermittent fasting, especially as portrayed in the media, has been quite overblown, IMHO. I think one of the main sources of this is from a study that suggested longevity improvements in lab mice. Unfortunately, studies involving lab mice, especially those concerning metabolism, translate poorly to humans.

unquantifiable "advices" like don't be extreme or that of moderation are best to left unsaid

That wasn't meant to be advice, just my general, nonprofessional, take on nutrition recommendation until I am convinced otherwise. Which I gladly am, because I find human biology (esp. the metabolism) more and more interesting the more I know about it.

I only remember reading that vitamin c in its ascorbic acid form is the predominant way it is transported into the cells (by SVCT1,2 pathways) and DHA transports contribute only a way minor amount.

This might be one of the reasons why sugar diminishes the immunity by around 50% several hours after eating it

Interesting, I'll try to find some reading material about that.

While I agree with your general message, your take on fruits seem quite extreme ("almost nothing in fruit worth taking").

I am curious where you got that consuming sugar inhibits vitamin c absorption. I couldn't find any studies or research that supports this take.

You'd need to install 3.11 first. When installing a package with pipx you can specify what other Python installation to use, if it's not the default one.

I very strongly would not take any advice from a chiropractor and scientologist who gives health advice and sells his own products / courses on Youtube.
