Pricing is a different complaint from hoarding copyrighted classics though.

Sure, Nintendo isn't pricing their franchises at the price point you want, but in context to the discussion they're at least re-releasing what they can and making them accessible.

‘The end of astronauts’ review: one small step for robots
Even if no one remembers you, your work is a contribution. Learning for its own sake is a hobby for yourself, like watching TV or reading a book.
To comply with dumb signature requirements. I needed this a couple of times. Usually it goes like this. You fill out a PDF form electronically, and add the signature via Adobe. Then you email it.

A lot of the times the recipient will complain that the signature was not handwritten. They want you to print it, sign it and scan it again. So you do this trick to make it look like you followed this process.

This website is not the first one that tries to achieve this. But I would not trust uploading anything to a random Web server though.

I usually do it via command line. You can use ImageMagick (i.e via the 'convert' command) to achieve the same result. It's very handy.
Good example. It doesn't really make sense logically to collect these (i.e., vs. just renting them). But I think I understand emotionally why people would want to collect things like this.
I rarely find content on Netflix through their interface.

I usually google for "best movies netflix april 2022" (or shows) and look through rotten tomatoes, metacritic, etc to see if that is something worth checking out.

It's been many years, so my memory is a bit rusty. I think I recall it being fiddly to upload images for a page and possibly the themes were complex to modify (?) (I didn't like the default and wanted to make something simpler).

I can't be certain, I have not tried Doku in years. It looks like a lot of places use it now and its seeing success.
What a ridiculous oversimplification of life...
That's kind of annoying on ultrawide screens.
I do not like AMP sites because it hijacks my back button in the browser and I have to hit back several times to maybe make it back to the page I was on before clicking the link to an AMP site.

If it did not do that I could care less.

I don't have any art yet but I'm working on a procedurally generated multiplayer VR space FPS using Unreal engine and it has been the most excited I've been since I found out about Linux 20 years ago.

Why I Walk (Part 1)
This reminds me of being in secondary school and procrastinating/nerd sniping our teacher for A-level Further Maths (so I was roughly 17-18) by arguing that a number system in base e (so 1, 2, 2.1, ..., 2.7, 2.71, ..., 10) would simplify a lot of the maths we were studying.
When people say they use "PHP" for webdev I recall BBOMs of flat files and raw SQL. Historically speaking, "PHP" does not necessarily imply "PHP+Laravel" or any other sane framework.

OTOH if someone says they use "Python" for webdev I assume Flask/Django/etc.

I'm in the same boat. When AMD mainboard will be out, I am planning to stuff the Intel one into a Fractal case and just have another server for the home server zoo.
They didn't say renting has no benefits they said it's expensive and has no ROI.

You position renting as easy and buying as a burden and an "enormous risk" so I assume you will be renting apartments and leasing cars for the rest of your life surely?
I would also like to see more discussion of which activities and situations are better handled in person and which are better WFH. I think there's a lot of nuance there that could really improve the debate and work situations.

E.g.
- training a junior developer vs. turning a senior "debug commando" loose,
- collaborating on an architecture vs. deep thinking about an algorithm,
- screen sharing vs. whiteboard doodling,
- dealing with an underperformer vs. getting out of the way of an overperformer,
- when to check in with a home worker vs. when to let an office worker focus,
- etc.

There's just so many people completely focused on One Right Answer to the question. Even if it's a different One Right Answer for different people. As an engineer I'm interested in the trade-offs in every choice, but the discussion is so polluted that you can't really trust anyone to treat the subject with intellectual honesty.

As a loyal Firefox user...

I may be switching browsers.

I'm mostly happy with Firefox but not entirely. I used brave years ago but wanted to support an open web by supporting competitive software. I've been looking at brave more recently because the web doesn't care and Firefox has made some questionable decisions lately (like pocket and suggested results from sponsors and the turning red ad... which is a good movie but a terrible move by Firefox). I use brave on my phone and I'm pretty happy with it and I hate amp links. This is a compelling change for me.
Well, if it works, it'll be cool... some free advice: in the "magnetic confinement fusion" diagram, what they've labelled "plasma" is actually the toroidal vacuum chamber and the "toroidal vacuum chamber" is actually the blanket, in that particular reactor design. In their defense, I suppose the diagram is easy to misinterpret.
In no way can 100 men cover several square kilometers of terrain in anything close to an effective manner. That's roughly a company sized unit, and they "might" be able to have a 800m frontage, but that depends on how they're equipped. If they're light infantry with limited transportation, not a chance.
You can fire people, arrest them, fine them, coerce them, convince them, train them, etc. Moreover, we have have millennia of experience in dealing with humans and their problems. Humans aren't perfect, but dealing face-to-face with a human that's empowered to actually do things is far more pleasant than a black box AI model.
My "ragging" is appropriate here because Jepsen is both the name of a reputable database testing group and the test suite. A lot of people do drive-by HN, without reading the specific submission too closely, and having an accurate title is important. The new title edited in is much better than the original was.
I really liked Zim many years ago and used it quite a bit for personal note taking, but its lack of tables really annoyed me. I love tables with a passion.

(On that note: when you add table support to a markup language PLEASE support newlines and paragraphs inside table cells. Don't assume that all tables are spreadsheets with only a small amount of text per cell. Some of us live in tables like high-rise apartments, eg bug tracking, school note taking & image stacking in cells.)
> Not really, because any JS/HTML logic that you have needs to be downloaded into memory and compiled and interpreted by each client independently

I see my question was unclear. I did not mean compute/bandwidth "in totality", I meant "in costs that would be invoked by the application owner".

> Server-side rendering saves at least one round trip by fetching the data from the database and injecting it on the server side before sending the fully compiled HTML + CSS + JS as one static file.

Sure, but the first hit would've been a cache hit anyways.

> The small amount of memory and compilation overhead by the server-side rendering function is more than made up for by the time saved on network latency

I don't really believe network latency would play in here. CDN would have the static bundle "at the edge" already for you. Static content is very easy to serve and break up into cacheable components for clients too, the Edge isn't really a revolution in that space. It's also unfair to present Edge functions as always-hot in terms of latency here, again I imagine the cost invoked for such features must be so high for so little gain
1. It's not only the NY Post reporting on it. Yes, it's a tabloid, but has been grudgingly vindicated by mainstream media outlets for this story.

2. It's not something ridiculous like "celebrities having sex with aliens". That's a bad comparison.

3. There is proof of corruption. Selectively ignoring it just because it's your side ie claiming it's "fake news" doesn't help society as a whole. It also adds credence to the far right's claims of selective and biased reporting. It furthers their narrative of persecution.

It's how we go to this mess in the 1st place. If the mainstream media wasn't corrupted through the 1990s consolidation circus, I highly doubt Trump would have risen to power. He rose to power because of fallen public trust in public institutions like mainstream media.
> Also, all forum software, which is SSR, despite being 20-30 years old, is usually faster than a SPA.

Only because crap tons of hardware got thrown at the problem.

I remember when forums were multi-seconds to load each page. It sucked.

People complain about reddit a lot, but even on mobile, the reddit website is fast. It may be janky at times, but navigating between comments on stories is under a second, loading more comments is, well, not fast, but quick.

Hacker News is notably one of the few non-crap forum sites out there. phpbb used to be everywhere, and it sucked everywhere. Up until 2012 or so, the old dial up BBSes from the mid 90s had a better user experience than the latest and greatest internet forums. (of course BBSs only had 1 client at a time, a much easier problem to solve!)

And yes, phpbb works now, because now a cheap host has an SSDs with gigs of RAM. To do the equivalent of a what a 486 running DOS did back in 1993.
In my experience it was less emotional than in person auctions I've attended. I knew my limit and stuck to it, there was no agent talking me into bidding higher.
You can also read that as trying to do both might be too broad for a smaller company to tackle. Apple is a clear example of how chip design and chip manufacturing don't need to be linked and may in fact hinder.
What low level access is available on the chips?
Thanks for clarify your point.

> If you have two layers installing an individual packages like /nix/store/x and /nix/store/y, stacking them as [x, y] and [y, x] would result in the same docker image contents

This is an assumption which is valid for nix, but not for most of the package managers. Whenever such assumption can be considered correct, Dockerfiles can achieve similar results using multiple stages, but you would probably need a pre-processor to have a stage for each package. Something like an `INCLUDE` directive could help too: https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/3378.
presumably those smaller companies would be beholden to the jurisdictions they're located in, where the laws are drafted by people who are democratically elected.

Yeah they can quickly turn into the junk drawer in your kitchen. Things go in there to never be found again.
Why is a YC company not held to a better standard? This is poor form.
My impression is that people "fighting" the "war on Christmas" have no problems with Christmas being a highly commercialized celebration of corporate consumer culture. They just don't want it to be a highly commercialized celebration of corporate consumer culture that acknowledges the existence of other religions by using the word "holidays" instead of "Christmas".

They didn't feel the line was crossed when more Santa appeared more than Jesus, when Christmas trees appeared more than Nativity scenes, or when their kids couldn't wait to get up and open presents but didn't care about going to church that night. They only cared about the word "holidays", and likely only because talking heads on right-wing media decided to get them riled up about it.

It's a tempest in a teapot because getting people outraged gets them to keep tuning in.
The right model for attacking this problem is multiplayer video games. That is the technical space where the questions of synchronizing a shared concept of what the universe should look like among multiple distinct nodes separated in space and time with real-time latencies has been thoroughly investigated.

It is also some of the more complicated and intricate code that you will find in the wild, so best of luck.
Yes Stranger things was feminist trash. Compared to the games, so was Witcher.
given that AI is primarily trained on web data I wonder if it's possible to attack other people's ML training in that way :-)
I'm Hales, the author of Minisleep. I'm open to any and all questions, critique and tangential stories.

I made Minisleep to solve the problems I had with other wiki engines and it's been doing this well. It runs my personal blog website, a few websites of clients/employers and a home wiki that gets touched once every two years when I organise a LAN party. I'm not sure if anyone else on the internet uses it outside of that (Minisleep doesn't contain any install tracking or unique IDs).

EDIT: Although I did discover a russian linux forum mentioning it last year. The world has changed quite a bit. https://www.linux.org.ru/forum/general/16473170/page1?lastmo...
Super interesting! A very small form-factor dual-channel memory module would be so good to have!

Should be very easy to reverse engineer. I hope Dell keeps up this form factor, I hope it gets reverse engineered, and I hope eventually it gets standardized. This would be a huge win, could really help free us from so many mobile systems soldering down ram, which is in part due to cost but also in part due to dual SODIMMS being pretty darned tootin big! This is much smaller & dual channel.
So adtech is ruining the web. Everything makes sense now.
In my experience (having implemented React SSR a few times for different companies) it's usually applied halfway between the two, on simpler form-driven websites - process-driven screens, marketplaces, the kind of places where you want either the performance improvement of a prerender or the SEO friendliness.
Came here to say that. At the time the post was written it was really just comparing x86 to the already dying RISC. Nowadays that comparison makes even less sense as the two schools of thought have more or less converged.
Your explanation doesn’t square with the weird comment about landlords wanting to be conflated with property owners, which I read as meaning that the parent thought they weren’t subsets.
Any word on when the batteries will be available? They've been "coming soon" for a while. I imagine there's a supply chain issue behind that -- not faulting you guys -- but it's kind of painful still not being able to replace the one part of my laptop that's guaranteed to wear out.
Thanks for the summary, although I could pretty much tell it was a right-wing rant from the title, and didn't bother to click.
Well now I feel foolish. I looked for the name of the app in the article and didn’t follow the “literally pay” link in the paragraph.
Why is that? Don't you simply adjust the width of the browser itself?
If you need SEO and (to a lesser degree) performance, you're likely serving content rather than an application and likely could've done with SOR (a new moniker I've come up with, Server Only Rendering).
I honestly hope they don’t productize it until they can build a dataset of images that have been explicitly licensed for remixes without attribution. Having proven that the system works, they could now justify the effort to build a very large public dataset of CC0 images. For example they could encourage Twitter to add image licensing options and use the alt text of images to form the image description. They could then encourage twitter to encourage the use of licensing and alt text, and foster a culture of open sharing. There are already 500 million images in Creative Commons, hopefully many with an appropriate license for reuse without attribution.

Otherwise what I am hearing is that artists online are upset their work has been incorporated in to DALL-E without their consent. A system that rips off artists and then puts them out of work would make OpenAI and the AI community look bad.

Instead we could move forward with better licensing and alt text features for major platforms and draw in an open community rather than taking what has not been licensed for this kind of use.

Not all products are profitable.
Do you have specific questions about how the crypto features work? They're optional by the way, but I've found them an amazing way to regularly donate to a couple key blogs I follow.
The newest versions of Next.js have API routes that are independently deployed as serverless functions, so they do not interfere with the SSR instance.
Shorts are forced to cover so they have to go out in the market and buy. So effectively they lose their money.

> Most condo boards don't support installing electric charging infrastructure.

Not legal to reject things out of hand in Ontario at least:

* https://www.condoauthorityontario.ca/resources/electric-vehi...

* http://condoadviser.ca/2021/06/ev-charging-stations-condos-m...

Not perfect, but simply saying "no" is not an option. New build has to accommodate EV charging (both condos and 'regular' residential (220V line pre-plumbed)).
Will there be information on important parameters of the main board/PCB? I'm not exactly talking about physical dimensions or enclosure design itself - but as a mechanical engineer I have no idea what sort of safe flexural tolerance a PCB might have, or if there's some available data on shock and drop tolerances of the board.

Also a quick qn 2 - any plans for a "smaller" board (maybe v2/later)? The current size is fine for a laptop but not ideal if someone is looking for building a tablet/small cyberdeck style device.
It's generally not, as the exact results of floating point operations depend on operation order, and in most modern frameworks training the exact calculations aren't fully deterministic for performance reasons, you'll get slightly different results/gradients depending on whether you run the same matrix multiplication on CPU or GPU or different GPU or split between multiple GPUs etc.

It's generally considered that those variations should not impact model accuracy (other mentioned concerns like randomization for initialization, dropout or sample selection do affect accuracy so there are tools to ensure that they are reproducible from the random seeds), and we care a lot about training performance unless model accuracy is impacted, so there's not much engineering attention paid to ensuring that the model weights would be exactly identical and verifiable, most users would not accept a performance hit for that.
If every person's ability was assessed the same way, but the 80 year old applicant didn't meet the standards and wasn't hired, is that ageism/discrimination, or is it the right way of doing things?

If a job has a requirement and someone doesn't meet it then they simply won't be able to do the job.
Note: XOR and AND are the obviously correct operations to use here, since they are the field operations over Z mod 2 :)
Is there even a draft of IEEE 802.11be out yet?
This is survivor bias.

Investment into information property (IP) goes unseen because you only ever publicly see what happens after the success. Without a legally guaranteed return on investment on IP, investment into developing it would be stunted.

Now is usually when someone counters with open-sourced initiatives, but they themselves still have copyrights legally protecting how they are used after being developed.
WebOS may very well be my favourite mobile OS.

What really lost me was the hardware. Unfortunately the Pre/Pre 2 was very underpowered and extremely limited in choice of carrier.

There’s a lot of reasons why WebOS never ‘made it’, but I think hardware, for myself - was a huge limitation I could never get past.
>You're talking about a society with HIGHER wealth inequality than right before the French Revolution

Immaterial. The class definitions are in quantiles which means proportional per capita. The facts of the matter is the lower classes are underrepresented, the upper classes are overrepresented.

QED.

>and you're defining "upper class" as anything above 60-odd K - an amount that would not allow you to rent a two bedroom apartment...almost anywhere in the USA.

"Upper classes", as in, the top quantile of classes. $60k (2007 numbers) would allow you to rent a two bedroom in almost everywhere in the USA, except the most expensive areas (in 2007). Not everyone is making $300k combined. Your SV bias is showing.

>It... Doesn't support your point at all?

It... 100% supports my point absolutely.

Paywalled opinion piece.

Leftist shibboleth. Not that I'm surprised, but reddit is that way.

>It's really hard to say "rich people are overrepresented" and then "who will sign up if we make college free" in the same breath.

Yeah... Because it's an opinion piece from a random contributer that similarly fell for the fake news. Poor Americans are not joining the military in disproportionately higher numbers to pay for college and what have you. That is a fact. If college becomes free, the military can raise pay and sign on bonuses, add other programs, etc. They'll find a way, no doubt.
that's the idea! we know about adversarial inputs at inference time, this paper talks about adversarial perturbation of the model itself during training. what about undetectable adversarial training inputs where people do their own training but the model still ends up with hard to find (except for the adversary) weaknesses?

Or, they didn’t sell it and are just seeking rent on it, now. For this effect to really work, the number of home-owners should equal the number of homes.

Right now, there are many, many fewer home-owners than homes.
