Open source AI need to look at Section 4.6 of Biden's Executive Orderhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38107077The open source AI community seems to have picked up on the statements in Bidens executive order stating, "... if it requires a quantity of computing power greater than 1026 integer or floating-point operations and is trained on a computing cluster that has a set of machines physically co-located in a single datacenter, transitively connected by data center networking of over 100 Gbit/s, and having a theoretical maximum compute capacity of 1020 integer or floating-point operations per second for training AI"However, this isn't an ohh, open source AI and Local LLM community will be fine, there's also section 4.6, which reads:``` 4.6. Soliciting Input on Dual-Use Foundation Models with Widely Available Model Weights. When the weights for a dual-use foundation model are widely available — such as when they are publicly posted on the Internet — there can be substantial benefits to innovation, but also substantial security risks, such as the removal of safeguards within the model.

Show HN: VectorFlow – Open-Source Vector Embedding Pipelinehttps://github.com/dgarnitz/vectorflowHey HNWe've just released the initial version of our open-source vector embedding pipeline. It's designed to embed large volumes of data. While embedding a few documents for Q&A is straightforward, consistently ingesting gigabytes of unstructured data is a whole different ballgame.By using our API, you can embed raw data and store vectors in your vector database, sidestepping the complexities of cloud infrastructure.Now, in true YC spirit, we're launching before everything is polished. Our Github repo (https://github.com/dgarnitz/vectorflow ) is a work in progress, and we're eager to get it in front of the community early on.Check out our Github repo and let us know what you think. Your feedback, suggestions, and critiques will be highly appreciated as we continue to refine and develop.Aug 10, 2023 5:35 PM

Ask HN: Shift from Product to Data Engineeringhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34899305TL:DR I have a PhD, 8 years experience in tech PMing. Interested in exploring a change to data engineering...asking advice:1- sources to learn2- does my background help or hurt?3- best way to break in4- any "career therapy" sources--I have a PhD in chemistry and fell into PMing 8 years ago. I have touched a lot of technologies and dealt with embedded systems, consumer tech, SaaS and, of course, data analysis totally out of my field and comfort zone.My current company is good enough on the surface- good package, cool clients, cool tech. It does suffer from key drawbacks - nepotism, micromanagement, silos, total lack of strategic awareness. The result being old-timers rule the roost and even though we're 500 employees it's still managed like a 15-body startup. Turn over is high - senior hires tend to leave in a hurry (1-3 years).

Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34338995Hey HN, Victor and Jacob here. We’re excited to show you what we’ve been building over the last couple of years! IcePanel (https://icepanel.io) helps architects and developers easily explain how their software works with interactive and explorable diagrams.Modern systems are complicated, and getting new developers up to speed and contributing fully is time-consuming and difficult. It costs the new developer's time, as well as the time of the senior first/second generation developers who help them constantly through their first 6 months. The resources people use to learn new systems are usually scattered across a maze of artefacts, like confluence pages or outdated draw.io diagrams, which are usually incomplete, with the ‘real’ understanding of the system being tribal knowledge in the team. As discussed in yesterday’s post https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34328069 “documentation only works up to a point” and we believe this is due to docs being disconnected from the code.

Show HN: Collaborative Jupyter Whiteboardshttps://jupyterspot.com/I found a common occurrence in data science type of meetings is someone screen-shares their Jupyter notebook either by Zoom, Hangouts, or conference room display and then starts scrolling through it explaining their tables, plots, markdown, Latex, etc. When I want to ask a question about a plot that the presenter scrolled past, there's a lot of "can you scroll up a little, no too far, back down a little". If I want to point to an area of a plot or column in a table, I can do it in Zoom, but it's all out of place once the notebook is scrolled. Usually someone has to ask the presenter to zoom in to see some tiny Matplotlib font.This led me to start looking into multiplayer versions of Jupyter that strive to be like Google Docs. There's proprietary ones like CoCalc and DeepNote, then there's open-source work underway to add real time collaboration to JupyterLab using Yjs. All of these are geared towards collaborative editing of the notebook code, but I really needed and saw a use for was Oct 4, 2022 4:17 PM

Ask HN: To what extent is an effectively cooperative global community an utopia?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32127891HN do you think it's possible to have a global community in which people from richer countries would be truly compelled or wanted to share their resources with people in a far away land, (i.e. not as much as in their local communities but much more than now) ? For example in case of draught based hunger, rising sea levels because of climate change, oil tanker spill etc.Especially in case of climate change, where consequences come relatively slowly.Context: I read developed countries are helping but they do not have a sense of urgency as it is happening far away. In other words"out of sight, out of mind".Humans mostly agree on what constituts suffering and pain while there are many definitions of happiness.I am thinking that in very simplified terms, emotions are "weights" to data in our neurophysiology. Similarly as nods in neural network have weights to them.I feel a stronger connection to people I personally know and whom I can experience with my physical senses.
