> I guess the risk is going from possible 50%+ ownership of a a company worth a few millions or tens of millions to much less ownership of a company worth roughly the same amount if it fails to grow. Or the risk of being forced out of control, I guess.

If the company is worth $50 million, and you sell 10% of it, the company gets $5 million bucks.

Since the company is now $5-million richer, you'd expect the company to really be worth $55 million at least (since its the same company, except now with $5 million more bucks).

It is now on the onus of the CEO to ensure that the extra cash does indeed grow the company's value. Sure, the money could be pissed away in a party yacht. But ideally, a good CEO will do something reasonable with the money. (Though the party yacht is often then used to raise more money from other rich folk, raising the value of the company again, lol)

As long as the CEO doesn't fall into the trap of just grabbing money without purpose... as long as the CEO has a plan for what to do with the investment money... its probably a good thing. IMO, where a lot of CEOs make a mistake is that they go into full-tilt money raising mode and never stop to think if they have "enough money for now". But I doubt that OnlyFans is at this stage of the game, OnlyFans probably can grow much faster with a bit more investment money.

Can you provide a more specific timestamp? 54.40 doesn't seem to mention anything about transformers, and "onwards" is two hours.

I'd be really surprised if they use transformers due to how computationally expensive they are for anything involving vision.

EDIT: Found it. 1h: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0z4FweCy4M?t=1h

Fascinating. I guess transformers are efficient.
I had no idea this was an option in Chrome, you just had to turn on a flag to enable it!

I am interested... also interested in if it gets past various paywall attempts....

Is there any way to get it on Android stock Chrome?
Kobo lets you install your own SW. There are open source reader SW for the Kobo, and they're better than Kobo's own reader.
I have the same issues as you as well and no, you can't control who your parents are and the culture you grow up in.

But you can control who your friends are. And you can choose to surround yourself with motivated people.

>puts a bullet in the idea of meritocracy.
I don't feel the same way, as this sits at the boundary of the workplace. My understanding of meritocracy is that, reward is based on performance inside the company. But until you have hired and had someone working for some time, you have no way of evaluating them.

We try to mitigate hiring bad employees with things like resumes, interviews and skill tests but those are not perfect. I, for example, suck at writing a resume. How many people have you seen on this site rage about "leet code tests"?

So, another "tool" companies use are personal connections. John, a great worker whom I trust, refers Frank. I still have to interview him but it give me another data point.

As a society, we have drifted away from the local community organizations (i.e. churches) that allowed people to build up good connections. We have tried to replace them, things like Linkedin but I am not sure how good of a job they do. Anything done on the internet gives me more of an ethereal feeling as opposed to the more permanent feeling of face to face personal connections.
Is there a workaround for the unsearchable collapsed default view for mobile Wikipedia pages?

> Tumblr went from >1B valuation

Yahoo are not known for their savvy approach to acquisitions - they frequently paid well over the odds for the cachet of ownership until Verizon snapped them up.

> to ~3M right

But we don't know how much they were valued at when Verizon bought the Yahoo group in 2017. If they considered Tumblr only worth $3M then before they banned porn, then the porn ban has done nothing to the valuation. Anything else is just conjecture.
Nope, Android. I tried reloading a few times, and the page is normal most of time. So it must be only when a specific ad runs?

Edit: Played around with it a bit. I think (not sure), some of the stuff is coming from this in the page source, near the bottom.

This is really interesting, I might try it. I miss the printed newspaper/magazine reading I used to do (although I still do some).
I would say your setup appears drastically more yours than Deta, however, which appears to only host apps on their own infrastructure. The software you're using is installed where you chose to put it, and can be installed in your home if you choose.
Hi, CEO of Deta here.
On Deta Space, self-hosting means that once the app is installed in your own personal cloud, you have full ownership of the instance and it's data. Not the developer.

We use GA in our dashboard but the apps themselves do not contain tracking. We aim to remove all tracking in the future. GA only collects web pages visits (anonymously).
My advice to bloggers: if your blog readability is improved by activating Reader mode, you have a styling bug to fix. Two universal improvements:

>> His parents consented for him.

According to the article, there was informal consent but no signed release. I'm was pretty surprised to hear that -- isn't obtaining releases pretty standard for large corporations?
Thanks, fixed!

Between WebCrate instances? Thanks to Deta Space each instance has its own domain so it is reachable directly without a gateway or central server. The instance then exposes a public API which another instance and the client can access to get the required data.
Law enforcement must manually review all suspected CSAM before seeking a warrant based on it. There is a whole process there, beyond whatever Apple has implemented, before a prosecution begins.

Understand that matching a file in the NCMEC database is not itself a crime. The whole CSAM-detecting ecosystem is just a tool for surfacing potential crimes. Having a few pics of your own child naked is not illegal and it’s pretty easy for law enforcement to figure out if that’s the case.

Beautiful. I wish there was a way to simplify OSM roads. For example, southbound/northbound highways are correctly stored as separate roads in OSM. But to draw an atlas, it's often enough to show the single highway.

Almost all tech internships are paid (for people with CS or engineering majors). Only really shady companies would try to get away with not paying a technical intern. In most cases these folks are doing real work, not just fetching coffee.
State of Self-Hosting
I suggest you take a look at Geometric Deep Learning, but the gist here is that convolutions can be thought of as translation equivariant functions, and pooling operations as permutation invariant combinations, all operating on a graph of as many components as the number of times the operation will be output, each component is composed of the pixels that the operation will act on, so there is local information that is slowly combined through the layers, then relative positioning can be decoded when the representation is transformed into a dense 1d-vector aka flattening.

In contrast, attention mechanisms in transformers can be seen as taking into consideration dense graphs of the whole input (at least in text, I haven't really worked with vision transformers but if an attention mechanism exists then it should be similar), along with some positional encoding and a neighborhood summary.

If they indeed can be thought as stacking neighborhood summaries along with attention mechanisms, then they shouldn't fall for the same tricks since they have access to "global" information instead of disconnected components.

But take this reply with a grain of salt as I am still learning about Geometric DL. If I misunderstood something, please correct me.
Yes, probably. I never noticed that. In the app it's in your face (first start asks for location services with explanation what for).

Maybe the most notable system that had "files as structured data" is the IBM S/360 lineage of mainframes.

> In the context of IBM mainframe computers in the S/360 line, a data set (IBM preferred) or dataset is a computer file having a record organization.

> Data sets are not unstructured streams of bytes, but rather are organized in various logical record[3] and block structures determined by the DSORG (data set organization), RECFM (record format), and other parameters

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_set_(IBM_mainframe)

Remarkably S/360 predates UNIX by several years, so its definitely not a novel concept. Albeit apparently IBM systems cost order of magnitude more than PDPs of the time.

Of course there are also classic LISP machines where afaik pretty much everything was a SEXPR, but I have even less knowledge about the details of those.
Deta Space is still in developer alpha. We have a long way to go!

Deta Cloud (deta.sh) is a PaaS like Heroku. Deta Space (deta.space) on the other hand is something new we call the "personal cloud". We will announce more soon.
A bit of a tangent, but the dynamics in high-value investment is quite the opposite. You have people with lots of money (they do exist) who don't have anything to do with that money. They want to make it grow, and often are paid or otherwise incentivized to make it grow, but it's kinda hard to find a way of making 1 billion make you 100 million in a couple of years, without doing micromanagement for 1000 different 1-million businesses.

So the market is skewed the other way: if you are a company that seems to be able to productively use a lot of money, they'll be throwing investments at you. And onlyfans is currently in a very good position to do this.

Also, from what I read the consensus seems to be their decision had nothing to do with investors (if I were an investor I'd be absolutely livid to hear it), but with payment processors, especially master card.
I don't think so, because the sections are lazy-loaded, and also discarded when the page is instantiated.

This also means that when you press the Back button, the sections are collapsed, and you lose the place where you just were.

All-around a terrible design and implementation from usability perspective, in my opinion.

I thought the main cause of this was a recent law change regarding liability around sex trafficking: https://www.wired.com/story/how-a-controversial-new-sex-traf...

Rather than risk this liability it's easier for payment processors to just not work with high risk sites.
Come on, there was never an era when "graduation" was worth anything. I graduated a small university in Normandy, France and work in an investment bank in Hong Kong.

You think they care I graduated at all? :D Be intelligent, know things, be creative and always end a job interview with the guys telling you you interviewed them.

Graduating is worth nothing. Whatever you learned while at university is worth a lot to get a free internship. Whatever you learned during the internship is worth a bit. Always been so, always will be.

I think things like that were handled quite a bit more loosely back then. If memory serves, the cover of one of the Deftones albums (the one with the girl in the bathing suit I believe?) came from a random shot taken at a party and the subject didn't even know about it until the album was released.

I would suggest you avoid redefining what self-hosting means. ;)

Are there any technical limitations to prevent Deta (or someone who compromises Deta) from accessing a user's data?

With regards to different apps installed within a user's personal cloud, is there any isolation that ensures a compromise with one app can't compromise data in other apps the user installs?

> That's the kind of claim you need evidence for

Where exactly would such “evidence” come from? Do you think the CEO of Raytheon would ever utter such a statement even if it were 100% true?

> Furthermore, even if it is true, it doesn't support the original outlandish claim that "The 'war on terror' was not meant to stop terrorism. It was meant to fan the flames and give the US an endless war that can be fought for generations."

I fail to see how anyone could believe that bombing people from the sky and invading a couple countries would win over favor from potential terrorists. In fact, it would seem the exact opposite is true. We should’ve spent the trillions of dollars using economic diplomacy instead. Now, one could argue honestly that our leaders are just complete idiots. I just happen to think they knew exactly what we were doing.
That's pretty amazing it already does it.

ArchiveBox and the other stuff from the "DIY no-credentials don't-care-about-the-rules" web archiving community, like ArchiveTeam.... continues to astound me with it's quality and "professionalism" (as a credentialed professional in the field of digital library stuff... they are often outdoing the actual credentialed professional community).

Fuel alone is easily $10,000 a year for a taxi.

The biggest expense people are not seemingly considering is the depreciation of the vehicle. taxis don't last long because the drive so much and so much stop and go. There could easily be $10,000 in depreciation a year.

It would do the project’s web site a big service to actually link prominently to this repository, if this site is in fact canonical.

A zipped source code archive inside a Git repository is very surprising (violation of principle of least astonishment). No wonder I couldn’t find the benchmark programs’ source; they aren’t even indexed for code search due to residing in a zip file.
When I was in graduate school way back in the 90s, I had an old dot matrix printer that I would use to print out the daily RFE / RI (Radio Free Europe) email news reports from Eastern Europe.

Its a huge waste of resources over time, but I find its much easy to focus and take in the information sitting at a table and reading over printed word.

I wonder if e-ink / paper devices might be able to replicate this now.
Most tech internships are paid. Someone in a CS program at a recognizable school with a strong program should definitely not be signing up for unpaid internships (at least not at for-profit corps).

I just finished supervising the summer interns embedded with my team at work, and we definitely paid everyone, allowed remote work, and brought everyone into the HQ for a week towards the end (flights, hotel, transpo, meals all comped) to give presentations, network in person with the team, do field trips / team building stuff, etc. I like to think we do a better-than-average job, but it's pretty close to what you need to be doing if you want to attract good talent to your internship program.
I think ultimately this is why Apple and Google will get off with a slap on the wrist - like Korea, Japan, et al, we have our state industries that compete in the global economy. Apple and Google are our champion competitors, and while the US wants to appear principled, we also want to crush our global competitors. There is a snowflake's chance in hell that the US is going to cripple our champions in the name of principles, because it's not principles that are the concern, but the appearance of being principled. Why would we help the non-US businesses compete with the home team?

Most users are mobile, so speed and reliability are the priorities. This setup works well and it's simple to notice when there are any issues or any non-2xx responses to any server or database calls.
Knowledge, and capability are like the surface of a balloon. Each day the balloon is expanded and it is only after a while you realise how far away from the surface point you are on, all the other surface points have reached. I mean i toyed with python and maps back in the day, and my intuition for how good looking you could make one of these is completely off.

I think I want there to be a professional software "continuing-education" [#] service. A course I do each 6 months that just gets me to run something for an hour (from astronomy to 3d-printing).

I know i could do it myself but the 10 -20 hours spent on each install wasted though bad configs seems something I would happily pay to avoid.

[#] Not a "re-education" camp. Although I know few devs I could send to one if someone provides seed funding. ;-)
I'm personally in favor of such an organization but it really goes against the meritocratic spirit of tech. Lots of us have used tech to bootstrap a better life through sheer mastery and not a "professional" track
My understanding is that these action committees are the ones that pressured the banks and payment processors (whose partial functions are shielding their partner banks from bad PR) to do so.

My wife is a Grade 1 teacher in Canada. She loves the concept. Two points:

* Please provide a copy of the physical book with the subscription (to rent for 3-ish weeks). Particularly for young students to recognize the joy of a physical book, to go through it on their own time in the classroom, and as a supplement to the digital formats/lessons.

* Make sure the craft activities are creative and not 'cookie-cutter'. Make sure the students have autonomy to go off the path. Be very intentional about how it relates to the story. Several teachers do craft projects for themselves where the art all comes out looking the same and has no outcomes associated with them.

With a baby on the way, we would love to have a B2C subscription to this sort of content.
"up to know that basically everyone had seen you naked and you had no ability to consent."

He was a baby.

What kind of splitting hair intellectual rhetoric are we people getting into?

All of my uncles, aunts, neighbours, neighbours at the cottage, babysitters, people at the park saw me to some extent 'naked' at the park. Little girls considerably more often since they go topless.

It's the most normal thing on the planet and it's been that way for thousands of years for everyone.

I'm hoping is just an odd HN style discussion and not some kind of weird new social normalization that's happened very quickly, in one generation as an artifact of ultra urbane helicopter parenting.

This is not a debate: his parents will have, or not, consented to him being in a bit of commercial artwork. His being naked as baby is irrelevant. That's it.
