You could dig into with traceroute. Usually "Cyberdays" put some strain on infrastructure globally - heightened traffic levels.

throwaway888abc··on Apple courier (Uber Eats) stole 2 MacBooks - Apple will not help
You can call your bank (if you paid by card) to issue chargeback - you don't have the items ?

EDIT: misread, it's loong many pages thread

EDIT2: the machinery is crazy, if i don't have items, i would just deal with bank, how can something can be stolen from me if it's not delivered (assume there must be some signature in place for this amount of money? it's not pack of cigarettes in the box..) ?

throwaway888abc··on Camdom: German company launches first 'digital condom'. How's it work?
"How the ‘digital condom’ works Camdom works like a “digital condom” for your smartphone, ensuring that private moments stay private. Using the app is simple and intuitive. Before getting intimate, both partners place their phones close to each other and swipe down within the app. This action locks the phones’ cameras and microphones via Bluetooth, disabling any ability to record audio or video.

In case someone tries to unlock or interfere with the app mid-moment, an alarm goes off, alerting both partners to the attempt and preventing sneaky recordings. The goal is to make the app as easy to use as a regular condom, but with a digital twist — shielding privacy from prying eyes."

throwaway888abc··on AMD Open-Source 1B OLMo Language Models
"Furthermore, AMD OLMo models were also able to run inference on AMD Ryzen™ AI PCs that are equipped with Neural Processing Units (NPUs). Developers can easily run Generative AI models locally by utilizing the AMD Ryzen™ AI Software."

Hope these AI PCs will run also something better than 1B model.

What is it useful for ? Spellcheck ?

throwaway888abc··on "More than a quarter of all new code at Google is generated by AI"
was looking for the quote, here is the full paragraph with it

"We're also using AI internally to improve our coding processes, which is boosting productivity and efficiency. Today, more than a quarter of all new code at Google is generated by AI, then reviewed and accepted by engineers. This helps our engineers do more and move faster."

throwaway888abc··on THT: A modern re-design of PHP (v0.8.1 Beta)
>Organized Library PHP's massive library (2,000+ functions) is curated and organized into modules & classes.

// PHP in_array('needle', $hayStack)

// THT $hayStack.contains('needle')

This looks more or less like a new language ? It must be amazing amount of time and energy to rewrite PHP in to this.

I don't see the benefits. I understand the Facebook's HHVM had some. (https://hhvm.com/)

Or Swoole (https://openswoole.com/) has it.

But i'm not clear of THT (also typical apple vs oranges benchamrkTM included).

throwaway888abc··on Ask HN: How do you add guard rails in LLM response without breaking streaming?
Not sure about the exact nature of your project, but for something similar I’ve worked on, I had success using a combination of custom stop words and streaming data with a bit of custom logic layered on top. By fine-tuning the stop words specific to the domain and applying filters in real-time as the data streams in, I was able to improve the response to users taste. Depending on your use case, adding logic to dynamically adjust stop words or contextually weight them might also help you.
