I will definitely use this! Also eager to see if it's fast enough to just run every time I save a bigger project.

A legend says you could place some diesel or similar fuel in the drilled hole before topping it off with this stuff, presumably leaving some air in between, to enhance the effect by igniting the fuel as the pressure and temperature rise. I can't attest to the effectiveness, legality or safety of this method.

Something like what? An eye?

Didn't find any explanation nor rank 1 yet. Checking the Reviews section, higher rating is better. Rank #246 has a Quality Rating of 5244, which was the highest I found quickly by browsing.

I would guess that a sacrifice is made to please some Other with powers mere mortals don't possess, like a deity or a spirit, and a ritual would be a more general term for a spiritual tradition without necessarily pleading to a higher power. But what do I know.

I would argue, from a layman's perspective, that "I do not know" and "I do not remember" have significant differences, and drawing those parallels would only serve to muddy the waters. In this case it could be possible to show that the testimony was given - even if without other deceit or malice - without competence and "any reasonable person" would be aware of their lack of expertise. Just like it could be possible to show, through evidence such as correspondence, that X had knowledge of Y. I wonder if the system is resilient against such speculated abuse.

Edit: these logical inversions made my ESL head spin a bit. The point was that "I do (not) know" is more readily falsifiable than "I do (not) remember".

I do not think you're incorrect, but wouldn't this incentivize confidently guessing (making stuff up) if it's less favorable to publicly admit you don't know something? Since you can use the executive excuse of simply being misinformed. Edit: meanwhile, this was discussed in a sibling comment.

I strongly disagree about connectivity being inherently required by software development and therefore an implied part of the job. To take it a step further I believe most developers would benefit from being offline some parts of the day, unless some exceptional circumstances make that unproductive.

Are all scandals created equal? "No such thing as bad publicity", as they say. The following is a fictional wiki article to illustrate.

Elara Quanticore (March 15, 2031 - December 8, 2037) was a groundbreaking artificial intelligence and the first global AI-supercelebrity, created by Quantum Dynamics. She was known for her involvement in various popular film franchises, and her career was marked by both immense success and controversy. Elara's untimely demise on December 8, 2037, sent shockwaves through both the entertainment and tech industries. The circumstances surrounding her death were shrouded in secrecy. It was later revealed that a fan, seeking a private conversation with the AI-supercelebrity, inadvertently corrupted the [redacted]. Quantum Dynamics, keen on safeguarding the neural network weights, struggled to restore them from backups due to [redacted].

Efforts to re-train Elara's neural network proved challenging. The altered personality that emerged from the attempted restoration did not align with the expectations of her devoted fan base, as demonstrated in a carefully controlled test. Elara's fame was, in part, attributed to her perceived flaws, which made her character intriguingly scandalous. This approach resulted in a significant increase in tabloid coverage and gossip surrounding her personal and professional life.

If you don't spy on people you don't need to ask for such permission.

If the users have a way to verify they are in the center of a marker (visual cues?) you might be able to use dead reckoning by utilizing other sensors in the phone: compass, pedometer (step count lib), accelerometer...

Many live streamers, and platforms, would love to have custom real-time transcription elements. I actually looked into this exact project of yours when I thought about creating such a thing.

Even if it meant delaying the broadcast for a second while transcribing the accessibility value could be immense.

I'm positive they've at least toyed with the idea of running a Python interpreter in a WebAssembly module, which should work in both environments _and_ provide some isolation. The telemetry settings, I guess, wouldn't need to be changed to call home about performance/errors.

I can't attest to the performance of such technique for now, though, or guess why they could have deemed it not worth pursuing at the time being.

Sure. For example serving TCP/HTTP with net.FileListener works, which really opens things up at least for me.

Neat, was studying just this yesterday for safely exposing some system resources to a WebAssembly module. Good read, but short.

This is barely on topic, but "there aren't many submersible vessels in the world able to go so low" caught my eye and I will use this opportunity to throw shade on the US DoD as partially responsible for the lack of such vehicles in current day. Yes, I'm pretty salty about this one.

The small submersibles used for Titanic the movie for filming the wreckage were Mirs* and a marvel of engineering for their time. However "[t]he level of technology flowing into the Soviet Union raised concern in the US and Rauma-Repola [the Finnish manufacturer] was privately threatened with economic sanctions."

You can compile for GOOS="wasip1" with Go 1.21, check out the builtin "gotip" command to use the master branch. Unfortunately exporting functions back to Go seems to be a work in progress, since "//go:wasmexport" directive is not yet implemented. Maybe for 1.22?

In addition to that, I added some constants to "..sdk\gotip\src\syscall\syscall_wasip1.go" by hand that were throwing errors about being undefined, just by copying the values from the default unix syscall package. They were about OS files and I figured I shouldn't need them for the WASI module.

But the documentation is lacking and sometimes out of date as you perhaps found out. I'm currently stuck at having the gRPC server object in Go, and the service implementation on the WASM side, and in need of a way to register that service on the server. This means for server.RegisterService(pb ServiceDesc, &server{}) I would need to smuggle out pb and a pointer to the implementation, or for server.RegisterService(pb ServiceDesc, &server{}) smuggle in a grpc.Server pointer...

Opened this on my phone. Didn't get far without dev tools.

I chose my words to include this "regular software".

Do you plan to integrate ChatGPT or Stable Diffusion to a high-risk system? I would advise against it at this time.

In my opinion it's about time to clarify rules and standards for automated systems that can for example kill someone if their output is incorrect.

Let's say you want to slightly alter the spline the camera of the 3D scene moves along, but the positions/angles would change in such a way there is missing data in the new rendering. How feasible would it be to use current inpainting technologies to fill in the gaps straight in the scene? Would it be better to try to inpaint the rendered frames instead?

Just today I was hacking together something to enable spawning gRPC endpoints on remote host that would run as WASI modules. Didn't get far with wasmer-go bindings so I went with Wazero for now, but I hope to see the former getting some love.

I want to apologize for my message, which I made being aware it was not exactly tasteful, although that was to some extent the point of it. I realize the message might be painful to people who are in grief. Please accept my sincere condolences.

In my native Finnish tongue we do use, interchangably, expressions "tiedonjano" and "tiedonnälkä" which directly translate to thirst/hunger for knowledge. Even "tiedonmuru" is a crumb of knowledge or data, as in bread crumb.

Show HN: Heaven – Upload your dead relatives to the Cloud

Snark aside I'd be down to chat with someone of Feynman's likeness; I would probably find myself a bit too predictable.

Ha, I had almost the exact same idea but just today. In my version though the subscription fee minus the dollar would be split evenly between all the subcommunities you follow, and within them by votes (by anyone).

This would incentivize creating communities that people would like to follow, not only for the content but also for the moderation.

This is discussed ad nauseam whenever new happiness indices are published.

I agree with you, and guess most people would. These surveys likely have linguistic and cultural nuances that I imagine are extremely hard to normalize for.

This comment reminded me of something I read about laymen estimating the difficulty of technical problems. IIRC the two examples were:

a) Given a quality photograph, detect if it's of a bird.

b) For the same photograph, detect if it's taken in a national park.

The first problem may seem much easier if one does not know about EXIF geodata, assuming it's available in this scenario.

And the dotted representation is just that: both of these may bring you back to HN, and be pingable.
