That's extremely unlikely. Keeping up with modern browser features takes a very large amount of work.

This trope is so tiring.

There is a massive difference between Google for enterprise customers and Google for consumers.

The consumer offering is massively subsidized by ads and will use your data for ad placement, although they still never sell your data because that would hurt their business.

The Enterprise offering guarantees you contractually that they never touch your data.

I don't think that's necessarily true.

I have spent months on projects that benefit a small subset of a service that's a small dependency of another service that's ultimately only used in emergency/outage situations.

It was absolutely essential for the company to have these systems in place, but I was under no illusion that I'd actually see them used during my time in the team because disasters of the necessary magnitude are rare.

So seeing the user journey and understanding the importance did nothing for my feeling on disconnection from what I'm working on.

So I emphasize with the original poster a lot on this.

Can't wait for the legislation so I can finally be released from servitude to my cat. /s

Array language have been around far longer than any "HN crowd".

"we" as in "a group of people not in a position to provide any evidence or investigate"?

Yes, absolutely, because all "we" would be adding to the conversation is speculation. No new information can be gained here.

This seems pretty cool!

Question: Does this take into account memory bandwidth and caches between cores? Because getting them wrong can easily make parallel programs slower than sequential ones.

Your link does not pass a smell test in the slightest.

Even the first number he gives ("688,478 Excess Non-Covid Natural Cause Deaths (primarily from the Covid Vaccine)") is complete crackpot fiction and runs counter to the actual current evidence. In fact the very likely reason for this is miscounted/misattributed COVID deaths.

See https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38300867/

Honestly, yes, I don't think Microsoft Google and Apple would do something like this.

The cost per ad is still astronomically different between search ads and LLMs

The CCP control is strictly about blast radius. Individual citizen in their homes are rarely subject to any enforcement action. Even talking critically on social media in small circles is mostly fine (apart from simple "bad-word" filters that just remove whole messages). The moment you reach a wider audience or "disrupt public harmony", they come down on you.

Can you please give me evidence for anything you have written in this thread that did not originate from Safire or aureon?

Let me state this again, I do not trust them as a source. I can't find any information regarding any Safire and llnl collaboration as well. Especially nothing from the llnl side.

The EU 2017 conference is not a science conference, it's a pseudo-science conference with little to no evidence or science behind it. Anyone claiming any wild thing can go and present there. There is no actual peer reviewed evidence here.

So as long as no reputable independent team is a able to verify their claims, I'll remain extremely sceptical. So far all we have are wild claims and fancy videos all from a single source and that just won't cut it to convince me.

Maybe I'm just bad at it but your claim does not show up on Google. Can you please give me a report that shows which lab verified it and the results? And no, a random video from the Safire website does not count because my assumption is that they are scam artists.

Nobody has ever independently verified any of the claims Safire has made. It's wishful thinking at best and a scam at worst.

I applaud your optimism but the bcachefs install base is tiny compared to btrfs and still there are corruption and data loss stories on Reddit so maybe give it another 5-10 years of mainstream use to stabilize.

I hope it'll beat btrfs eventually though.

Regular random crashes should be exercised regardless at Facebook scale. Not being resilient to that would be very unprofessional.

That's still ridiculously slow. I'd expect them to have hundreds of Microservices. Each one of those should be able to handle a random restart at any point in time so they should absolutely be able to restart 100s of servers concurrently without major disruptions. Hell on Facebook scale a whole-Datacenter going down should not cause service disruptions.

Shoot me a mail to e-hackernews[at]wthack.de so we can connect less publicly.

No idea how good other languages are but Java in cider-v is very nice.

It's absolutely fantastic. I feel disabled coding without it in my spare time. Imagine a pair programming session with someone that can read your mind and knows the entire codebase. I don't know how much I'm allowed to talk about so I'll leave it at that.

I don't have access to copilot so I can't compare but I'd wager it works a lot better for Google internally because the training data is customized to Google.

I had the exact same reaction. Saw the massive list of new features and decided to wait for .1 or .2 releases to shake out the bugs. Seems like patience is paying off as always.

Having commuted 55 minutes each way into Munich for more than a year, I'd say my average daily delay is about 15 minutes with >30 minutes delay happening at least once a week.

That's a level of regular delay that makes early morning meetings impractical because I'll be late more likely than not.

This is not saying anything about being open. This is talking about federation and stable protocols.

Both absolutly do hamper fast evolution of a product because they require a LOT of coordination and consensus, both of which are incredibly expensive and time consuming.

With a non-federated and unstable protocol, they are free to update and deprecated whatever they like and on a fast timescale. That is impossible with a federated stable protocol.

This has nothing to do with FOSS.

XMPP is a good example of a protocol that got fragmented to death by many many different and incompatible extensions, ultimately making it too fragmented and too slow to adopt to new requirements.

Not saying that you are wrong, just mentioning that Safari has the attribution API, which serves a similar goal:

That's not actually true. The conditions for the formation of coal and oil may likely never happen again because the bacteria to break decompose trees did not exist then but exist now, making oil formation impossible because trees decompose now. Unless they all die out, we won't get any new oil ever.

Zooming in a bit will tell you that we got from 30% to >45% adoption in 3 years I think that's a pretty good trajectory all things considered.

Been using hetzner storage boxes for borg backup for >5 years. Works without issue for multiple TB of backups. Every maintenance downtime so far has been announced in advance.

That's a really bad take.

Think about Google what you want but Google is never selling your data, it's far too valuable to sell. Advertisers never get to see any of it.

The decision which ad is seen by whom is handled entirely inside Google and your data never leaves them.

I had the totally opposite experience. I have been paying ~60€/month to them for nearly 10 years for a root server and storage boxes and I never waited more than an hour on any kind of support email. And this includes a bunch of times where I need someone to physically walk to the server and manually do something.
