41,800,300 | comment | seanlinehan | 2024-10-10T16:08:17 | null | Spot on.<p>I was an early eng and first VP of Product at Flexport. Global logistics is inherently complicated and involves coordinating many disparate parties. To complete any step in the workflow, you're generally taking in input data from a bunch of different companies, each of which have varying formats and quality of data. A very challenging context if your goal is process automation.<p>The only way to make progress was exactly the way you described. At each step of the workflow, you need to design at least 2 potential resolution pathways:<p>1. Automated<p>2. Manual<p>For the manual case, you have to actually build the interfaces for an operator to do the manual work and encode the results of their work as either:<p>1. Input into the automated step<p>2. Or, in the same format as the output of the automated case<p>In either case, this is precisely aligned with your "reuinifying divergent paths" framing.<p>In the automated case, you actually may wind up with N different automation pathways for each workflow step. For an example at Flexport: if we needed to ingest some information from an ocean carrier, we often had to build custom processors for each of the big carriers. And if the volume with a given trading partner didn't justify that investment, then it went to the manual case.<p>From the software engineering framing, it's not that different from building a micro-services architecture. You encapsulate complexity and expose standard inputs and outputs. This avoids creating an incomprehensible mess and also allows the work to be subdivided for individual teams to solve.<p>All that said – doing this in practice at a scaling organization is tough. The micro-services framing is hard to explain to people who haven't internalized the message.<p>But yeah, 100% automation is a wild-goose chase. Maybe you eventually get it, maybe not. But you have to start with the assumption that you won't or you never will. | null | null | 41,798,250 | 41,765,594 | null | null | null | null |

41,800,302 | comment | deepmacro | 2024-10-10T16:08:26 | null | The idea was to have a more linear way to express your thoughts and adding calculations. Another big problem for me was that in excel when you want to
create various plots for the same multi-variate problem you have to create a ton of copies of your data and formula.<p>For sharing files, it could be as simple as sharing a text file. You can also imagine a future where you create something and you only share the nice looking
html view that is still interactive.<p>Running locally? not a problem, I already tested packaging this into a OSX app and it was like 4MB and has the same functionalities. | null | null | 41,800,168 | 41,798,477 | null | [

41,800,310 | comment | noemit | 2024-10-10T16:09:15 | null | Yep, all great points. If you want to go deeper, I think we can actually trick ourselves into being "pregnant" by creating some sort of urgency in our lives. An investor I worked with once told me the best way to be a successful entrepreneur is to become unhirable (through scandal or something like that) because then you would absolutely have to make it in business on your own.<p>When you live a high agency life, you have to screw it up in strategic ways to push you towards success. I actually chose to have children when I felt like I was making too much money and it was making my life a little too easy. (It wasn't the only factor, but it was a conscious factor).<p>And it worked - I have way less time, way more important things, and my software projects have become much more hyper focused and I goto market and test things much earlier, I simply dont have the luxury to sit around and think like I used to. | null | null | 41,718,624 | 41,714,361 | null | null | null | null |
41,800,311 | comment | Uehreka | 2024-10-10T16:09:21 | null | PaaS, Containerization and Serverless are different concepts.<p>App Engine is PaaS: You provide your app to the service in a runnable form (maybe a container image, maybe not) and they spin up a dedicated server (or slice of a server) to run it continuously.<p>Lambda is Serverless: You provide them a bit of code and a condition under which that code should run. They charge you only when that thing happens and the code runs. How they make that happen (deploy it to a bajillion servers? Only deploy it when it’s called?) are implementation details that are abstracted from the user/developer as long as Lambda makes sure that the code runs whenever the condition happens.<p>So with PaaS you have to pay even if you have 0 users, and when you scale up you have to do so by spinning up more “servers” (which may result in servers not being fully utilized). With Serverless you pay for the exact amount of compute you need, and 0 if your app is idle. | null | null | 41,799,999 | 41,795,561 | null | [

41,800,312 | comment | resters | 2024-10-10T16:09:31 | null | Chechnya was hugely important to Russia geopolitically and so it should not have been a surprise that it would not want to let Chechnya become independent.<p>Russia already had a mix of rivals both for political Islamist reasons and oil/gas pipeline dominance reasons. Not surprisingly, those groups/nations supported the Chechen cause as tehy stood to benefit handsomely.<p>As usual the US did a lot of finger shaking and humanitarian atrocity shaming.<p>From Russia's perspective, the Chechen wars were significant attacks on its security and economy. Zooming out, an independent Chechnya would have made post-Soviet Russia much, much weaker.<p>So I think it's reasonable to attribute Russia's suppression of the Chechen rebellions to be motivated by the same desire to protect its territory that has motivated its war with US-backed Ukraine.<p>It seems that the only way to say it's unreasonable is to claim that Putin is himself mentally unwell and motivated by mental illness (a common claim in the US, sadly) or that Russia itself does not deserve to establish its own geopolitical "red lines" for when it will act militarily to protect its interests/territory. | null | null | 41,790,282 | 41,765,734 | null | [

Most of these places expect that just because you have X or Y on your resume that you know inside and out their snow flake application which of the current staff their lead has typically turned over once a year and is so burned out they are the worst person to even offer help because they are toxic.<p>Then you get the constant pivoting. Management: We going to start out by doing two week sprints, one week in, we are going to switch to one week sprints. And after that, management wants to try kanbon all the while bugging about your KPIs<p>Say you manage to make it past that first 6 months. You realize that the next 6 months are going to be exactly as the last but worse because the lead toxic dev has just left and you are now the lead. Mean while they keep pivoting projects and goal posts but simultaneously asking you to do things that they have not even once tried to prepare for.<p>Finally you been there a year and most everyone who was there before you now is gone. And now you are the jaded burned out lead dev unwanting to go to meetings or be the person to tell the new devs how F'd everything is.<p>Also I've never once met a "scrum master" I liked.

41,800,327 | comment | Lev1a | 2024-10-10T16:11:24 | null | Over the last few years here in Germany many, many food products have gained a little note next to the "MHD" (Mindesthaltbarkeitsdatum, [1]) which says something like "oft länger gut" ("often viable for longer") or "ansehen, riechen, probieren" ("Look, smell, try").<p>And IIRC the EU is also debating the removal of MHD from staple foods that are shelf-stable for years, like dried pasta, uncooked rice etc. Normal sugar already doesn't have an MHD, although jam sugar is marked with the year of manufacture since they have other compounds in them as well beside the sugar itself.<p>Where i work all all the food that's simply past its MHD gets collected every morning by the Red Cross for food banks ("Die Tafel"). Obviously if a foods container is damaged or it's rotted fruits/veg or it would be unsafe to consume for another reason [2], that stuff gets thrown out (into bins collected for biomass processing).<p>[1]: pretty sure it's the same as "best (if used) by date" since products from abroad are sometimes marked "BBD <date>" instead of "MHD <date>" (at least on the transport packaging).<p>[2]: like lazy customers not putting frozen or cooled foods back but leaving them elsewhere in the warm store, something which REALLY aggravates me. | null | null | 41,799,257 | 41,765,006 | null | null | null | null |

41,800,329 | story | k11kirky | 2024-10-10T16:11:49 | Ask HN: Do people want to AB test LLMs? | Hi Hacker News,<p>My name is Peter and I am the founder of Props. We are an AI Gateway that enables product teams to AB test models and providers using traditional business metrics (rather than evals) to measure performance.<p>For example: In a traditional call center, companies use NPS, CSAT, Ticket close rate ect. to measure performance. Our theory is that regardless of whether the call center is human or AI, model A or model B we should measure performance in the same way. So the customer support AI would use Props to quantify the changes they make to their AI app. They might set up an experiment that uses gpt-4o as the control and Llama 3.2 as the variant, Props will automatically split traffic between variants with our model router and allow the team to evaluate results in our dashboard.<p>Our ultimate goal: To build the smartest LLM router on the market<p>But… to build the “smartest” router, we need to solve the quality, cost and latency equation.<p>Cost monitoring across models is easy enough to measure, same with latency. Quality is hard because it is dependent on the business and the metrics that matter to them. So really each company needs their own custom LLM router. For that we need DATA, the way we are going about collecting the high quality labeled data is via experiments. Experimentation will provide a consistent channel for data collection that can be continually used to effectively create new fine tuned models or route to the hundreds of available models depending on the real time need.<p>I just soft launched this new experimentation product last week at Llama Lounge in SF (here was the demo: https://getprops.ai/demo ) and am looking for some early design partners / customers who want to work directly with us to test the product.<p>I also want feedback from builders. Is this useful? What would make it more useful? I am happy to set up custom demos for any use case you throw my way.<p>Website: https://getprops.ai

41,800,331 | comment | ggreer | 2024-10-10T16:12:03 | null | This article claims that 12 million tons of food are wasted in California annually, and that this law will save 70,000 tons of food from going to waste. California's population is 39 million. Does that mean that every Californian is wasting a pound of food every day? That seems suspiciously high to me. I'm curious how they came up with those numbers.<p>I think this law is like plastic straw bans, or mandated bag fees, or prop 65 cancer warnings: a feel-good law that causes more problems than it solves. Anyone who makes food for sale in California will have to redo their labelling (or at least pay people to audit their product labelling). These costs will be passed on to consumers in the form of increased prices. Some manufacturers will choose to not sell in California, reducing consumer choice, reducing competition, and increasing prices. And for what? To reduce food waste by 0.6% in the best case.<p>It seems to me that the problem with food wastage isn't the extra food, it's the externalities created by food production, distribution, and disposal. It would be much more effective to tax these externalities than to make ineffective laws about product labelling. | null | null | 41,765,006 | 41,765,006 | null | [

I disagree that they aren’t meaningful, though. Especially with Aurora, and its “what if we added even more latency to queries” model of splitting compute and storage. Go make a table with a few million rows; one column with a sequential ID, the other with UUIDv4. Index them both (in MySQL, you’d need to swap PKs between tests since it clusters), then do any kind of aggregation query, like COUNT,
MAX, etc. That’s not a small difference.<p>A micro-optimization for an RDBMS would be something like switching a MySQL column from VARCHAR to CHAR if you’re positive that the length is fixed, to save the 1-2 bytes/row overhead. It matters at scale (thousands of tables * millions of rows can add up), but not for most.<p>> If we need to shave a few percentage of the database access, it is more cost effective for us to get a more powerful database server.<p>People always say this as though it’s fact, but I’ve yet to see any studies on it, and frankly I doubt its veracity. Take the current RDS pricing for on-demand Postgres, r7g.large vs. r7g.xlarge: in us-east-1, it’s $0.239/hr vs. $0.478/hr. That difference works out to about $2000/yr, for a single-AZ DB of the smallest non-burstable type they have. Since microservices remain all the rage, multiply that by N. You’re telling me it’s not worth the money to spend a few hours reading docs and applying the knowledge? I don’t buy it. Moreover, as someone who enjoys the craft of SWE, it’s physically painful to watch people say “eh, let’s just throw money at it” instead of understanding where their code is slow, and solving it. | null | null | 41,798,955 | 41,794,566 | null | null | null | null |

41,800,339 | comment | wildzzz | 2024-10-10T16:12:58 | null | You're thinking about taking commercial parts and screening them for radiation tolerance rather than building parts from the ground up to be radiation hardened. Sometimes a vendor gets lucky and the chip has a pretty decent radiation tolerance that makes it useful for short duration missions. It's not going to last 15 years in GEO orbit but it could do well on a satellite only designed to last a couple years. It's not cheap to do radiation tolerance screening but it's way more expensive to make small batches of radiation hardened parts.<p>Sometimes the vendor will add a little more to the substrate that doesn't increase cost much but does provide a little bit more radiation tolerance. Other times there are certain things the customer must do like constantly rewriting registers. It's not perfect but you can save a lot of money taking an off the shelf TI part and flying it versus spending tens of thousands for something of similar performance but with a guaranteed level of radiation hardness beyond what you actually need. I've used a commercial TI ADC that works really well in a radiation environment (perhaps as long as 5 years in GEO) despite not being sold as such. We just decided to screen it to see how well it performed and based on that test data, we made the decision to fly it. I'm not sure who's idea it was but something about the design of the chip led us to believe it might perform decently. TI was not involved and was at first a little concerned when we told our sales rep we were planning to fly it.<p>Older chip designs use larger features that generally perform better in a radiation environment than newer designs using smaller features. An old 74-series logic chip might actually perform just fine when it comes to heavy ions but may not live as long as something like a 54-series that has a larger substrate that can absorb more gamma over time.<p>Another method is flying unscreened radiation hardened parts, they were built to a certain standard but you buy them without all the extra testing to save a few grand because you trust the vendor has a good process. | null | null | 41,773,769 | 41,765,580 | null | null | null | null |
41,800,340 | comment | SilverBirch | 2024-10-10T16:13:07 | null | I think it's useful to think about the same way you think about test specificity. Ie, of all the people in the world that hit this page, how many of them are going to need this feature and use it correctly vs. how many don't need this feature and accidentally use it. Using the Escape key is fantastic for "I needed this feature and it worked", which is probably 1 in 100,000 users of the page. It's terrible for "I accidentally used this feature I didn't know about" and that's the other 99,999.<p>All your other suggestions fail for this reason too - you need a high level of confidence the person really intended to escape. I for example would mash the space bar three times to scroll down. | null | null | 41,798,317 | 41,793,597 | null | [

So I built a quick demo to tackle this issue.<p>The demo uses Claude 3.5 and a prompt framework to transform customer CSV files into your application's data model. The UI is built with Streamlit.<p>I started with CRM data as an example, but I'd love to expand to more complex use cases with various data types.

If anything all of these continuous monitors create more patient visits and probably more diagnosis.<p>I'm interested in what the future holds when these things are capable of FDA-approved diagnosing. Will Apple send a prescription for BP meds to my pharmacy? | null | null | 41,800,147 | 41,799,324 | null | [

Carefully and multiple times.<p>I disagree with it as I wrote. Doesn't mean that I didn't read it.<p>> This is why luck is insignificant - even if you do very badly, you'll still succeed.<p>I really don't understand your reasoning here. She was lucky. Random things turned out well enough for her so she could tell her story and let us hear it. That is where the luck is significant. You can't argue from the fact that she was lucky, that luck wasn't significant.<p>If she wasn't lucky and the jaguar eat her, if she wasn't lucky and the poisoned arrow killed her, if she wasn't lucky and the chief she mocked have executed her we would not know about her.<p>She didn't survive because she was so careful with things. She didn't survive because her environment was free of dangers. She survived because she rolled the darwinian roulette wheel (multiple times) and things happened to work out randomly well enough for her to survive. Therefore the role of luck is significant.<p>You are basically saying "well it worked out okay, so what is the fuss about it". But some of these things only worked out for her due to luck. I read your comment (multiple times!) and still confused how can you can think that the role of luck is insignificant. Especially when you agree that the jaguar could have killed her.<p>> But that was not a risk for a normal Yanomamo woman.<p>Ok? Two things. One: What do we care? We are talking about Helena and the significance of luck in her life. Even if the normal Yanomamo woman were 100% impervious to jaguar attacks wouldn't change anything about Helena. The jaguar is a danger to her. Avoiding it is up to luck for her.<p>Two: how do you know? Do you have some good data source on the relative probabilities on jaguar attacks on the normal Yanomamo woman? Or just making assumptions? For all we know it might be danger to everyone living in that environment. | null | null | 41,784,961 | 41,758,857 | null | null | null | null |
41,800,389 | comment | theptip | 2024-10-10T16:18:06 | null | > The Scrum Guide would have you believe there are only two appropriate questions to ask a Product Owner<p>A lot of people over-interpret rigid hierarchy’s, when Scrum is supposed to be the opposite.<p>From the actual scrum guide: <a href="https://scrumguides.org/scrum-guide.html" rel="nofollow">https://scrumguides.org/scrum-guide.html</a><p>> The Product Owner is also accountable for effective Product Backlog management… The Product Owner may do the above work or may delegate the responsibility to others. Regardless, the Product Owner remains accountable.<p>It’s entirely compatible with Scrum for the engineers to sit with customers and come up with backlog items, and the PO to take the role of ensuring backlog quality and reviewing strategic direction of the work items being added by developers. | null | null | 41,797,009 | 41,797,009 | null | null | null | null |

41,800,394 | comment | spease | 2024-10-10T16:18:24 | null | Things should not panic a lot, and when I’m going over someone else’s Rust code I will discourage them to use panic at all if it’s socially appropriate.<p>Inasmuch as I am aware, the correct usage of panic is “there is no way to recover from this without leaving the application in an undefined state”.<p>Not “a file I expected to exist wasn’t there” or “the user gave bad input” or “I didn’t implement this feature yet”.<p>But more like “a cosmic ray must have struck the machine or something, because this ought to be logically impossible.”<p>Or pretty much, if you literally don’t see a mechanism in Rust that can pass an error upwards and the program also cannot continue execution without the result being affected, then you panic.<p>That’s a little stricter than what I understand the official guidance is, but not much.<p>If you have something panicking it should be less “I can’t see what’s going on” and more “thank god it stopped itself so it didn’t write bogus data to production.” | null | null | 41,794,371 | 41,791,773 | null | null | null | null |
41,800,395 | comment | sandworm101 | 2024-10-10T16:18:40 | null | There is also much confusion about how food actually goes bad. There are some foods that absolutely should be avoided after a specific amount of time. But most will go bad somewhat randomly, mostly after but often <i>before</i> their sell/best by dates. Sometimes a jug of milk will be bad before it even arrives at a store. Sometimes mold will appear on fresh bread very suddenly. Food is more complicated than fixed dates.<p>I was buying eggs recently when I, as my mother taught me, opened the case and checked to see if any had cracked. The person beside me said "I hope you are buying those" as if me touching them somehow made them unsellable. People need to learn more about food. | null | null | 41,800,087 | 41,765,006 | null | [
