You almost got the issue. The main problem with Netflix is they are no longer a video Supermarket, but instead a Hollywood Studio.

Netflix was great for about 10 years when it's only competition was Hulu. Now everyone has yanked their content off of Netflix and put it on their own streaming platforms.

When Netflix had ALL of the streaming videos, it was amazing, it was the Video Supermarket as you say.

Now Netflix makes it's own content and I hear nothing but bad things from other people and my own experiences of their programming is that it's substandard to what they could get from other studios.

They need to go back to being the #1 streaming content provider, not a movie studio.
I feel like this conversation comes up in every signed exchange thread, and it's also always pointed out that this is how CNAME records and CDNs already work, except now the response is signed by the author.
Their answer to your question is just the output of another black-box neutral net! Its output may or may not have much to do with the other one, but it can produce words that will trick you into thinking they are related! Scary stuff. I’ll take the computer any day of the week.
> I gave up information on what site I was visiting, but if I enter any information on the page, won't that still go to Google?

So far as I can tell the user agent uses the original (non-Google) URL for the purpose of same-origin tests when it's returned from Google's cache using the Signed Exchanges standard, so the risk is effectively the same as if the page were served from the original server and Google were not involved. The page could send anything you enter to Google, but it would need to be coded that way to begin with. It wouldn't do so just because it was served through their cache.
> If we're not close to AGI now

I bet we're closer than most people think. Instruct GPT-3 can do semantic tasks just as efficiently as DALL-E 2 can draw. NLP tasks that took whole teams multiple years can be simply described in a few words and they work right away.

The entry barrier to implement new tasks will get very low. The large models will be the new operating system. This means more investments and data, leading to new improvements.

I believe GPT-3 is already close to median human level on most semantic tasks that fit in a 4000 token window. I'm researching how to use it right now for a variety of tasks, it just works from plain text requirements with no training.
I would say American media has always been California centric. The majority of screenwriters lived in CA near the majority of media studios and produced the majority of our media.

The complaints about CA politics in Netflix are new complaints to me.
This is a great PR move.

I’m sure this letter made the rounds; clowns on this big brand; and gets free exposure for the underdog. Worth the $500 to write the letter.

Will consider similar tactics in the future.
"Ain't" is pretty universally viewed as informal language, and therefore out of place in formal communication.

Until just two years ago, "whitelist/blacklist" was completely normal language with no racial connotations, and I would wager that it's still viewed as completely normal by the vast majority of people. However, in just the last two years, people of a certain political persuasion in the US have decided to make these phrases into an issue.

If it is critical for you to communicate and come off well to a relatively small subsection of upper-middle-class liberal Americans, then these suggestions might be helpful. If it is critical for you to communicate with fundamentalist Evangelical christians, then a different set of suggestions might be helpful. I view the two situations in exactly the same way. However, if you're just writing for a generic audience, then these suggestions come across as unwelcome proselytizing.
Can you clarify what actions that you would like employers to take? AFAICT, employers are trying to out reach to marginalized communities and meet them where they are. How are companies supposed to hire without compromising quality?
Are you suggesting a quota based system similar to the green card system?
It's easy to say things in retrospect after a risky gamble ended up being not as bad as feared. Sweden's neighbours fared better.

I'm glad for how things we're handled in Canada, except that I wish we'd locked down sooner and harder at the start of subsequent waves. I also welcome many of the changes that were accelerated, notably working from home and elimination or simplification of many fees and services. Having hand sanitizer everywhere is also great for cold/flu seasons too.
It does seem like there are some pretty wild discrepancies in total comp between countries. If the distributed/remote trend continues progressing, I wonder if we'll see things start to equalize at all in our lifetimes, or if there are other geopolitical / macroeconomic / other factors that are more significant.

It’s not so important. It’s all the edge cases, like when the video isn’t available in your region or on your device, or when you need to use it in some other workflow. In other words, “fair use” (that is, as opposed to just “use”). And how those edge cases aren’t addressed by any part of most current systems. That’s also why the DDG issue was only a big deal on HN, rather than an actual news story.
I've read definitons that say "African-American" specifically refers to the descendants of slaves whereas immigrants from Africa are called <country>-American. For example, Elon is South African American.
Seems like the sentiment is that Nintendo should have all their first party titles available.
Strange that your definition of what a podcast is supposed to be doesn't fit what I find at result #1 when searching for "The biggest podcast in the world".

But I know where you're coming from. It sucks that Spotify is trying to turn this into a walled garden. Hence downloading the episodes, and listening to it in a better client
Although I would also recommend Apple's first-party apps, if you use iCloud sync, then your data is stored on Apple's servers.
It makes no difference for privacy in that you already told Google which page you were going to by following the link. Naturally the address shown in the URL bar matters to the user or we wouldn't be discussing this at all. With Signed Exchanges it can correctly reflect the origin of the content rather than being cluttered with irrelevant details about the cache server.
The level of entitlement of the issue creator is absolutely disgusting.
No glasses for me. Interestingly, my SO who wears glasses prefers some random behind the ear looped kn-95s. No accounting for comfort I guess.
Inertia is the same as backward compatibility.

It looks pretty great, I hope to try it more extensively in the future. I was somewhat surprised how intensely I was overcome with existential dread as I put in my information, and just left. It's hard to approach thinking at all about finances, being some years into a pretty volatile career and having basically no assets, investments, savings of any kind, debt, and very rapidly rising costs.
Mesen and bsnes are both pretty close to flawless for the NES and SNES respectively.
I didn't experience anything you described with AMP pages. Generally, I find AMP pages to be among the best by news site standards, which I agree are pretty low.

I never understood why AMP gets so much hatred from end-users. I understand why publisher hate it (it takes away control), and I understand the monopoly concerns, but for me, as an end-user, 99% of the times, the AMP version is better: faster, with less of the annoyances you described. As for privacy, these 99% are loaded with Google ads and analytics anyways, so not much of a win there. I don't know what your configuration is, what kind of ad-blockers you are using, but I never met the horrors people make AMP to be.

And sure enough, there are sites that are better than any AMP sites, but these almost never have an AMP version. So for me, AMP makes terrible sites a little less terrible, and good sites unchanged.
This is pretty scary. Inclusivity fine but what else can they push and censor.

Inclusivity is fine, as long as you're not encouraged to be inclusive? Are you sure you think it's fine?

It's certainly fair to say that you feel that inclusivity has gotten out of hand and that it shouldn't change the way we talk. But it seems disingenuous so say that it's "fine", but think it's scary when it's suggested to you.
I don't care one way or another is someone works remotely or in the office. What I do care about is effective communication between co-workers. Unfortunately though, for remote workers, there is an enormous elephant in the room; namely non-verbal communications. Truth is that study after study (after study) has shown how large of a role non-verbal clues are in the human communications process (some show 90%). To my mind, argue all you want about video conferencing and chat apps, humanity is innately social, and when you cut out large chunks of that social engagement and replace it with remote-work, there will be enormous social and work environment impacts.

Of course not all shared-location work environments are created equal, and too many in management are both lazy and power hungry. They (and their companies) want to blame anything but their own horrific employment practices and lazy, out-of-date policies. So it's not all a bad thing remote-work has become as big as it has. However, like all human activity pendulums, the remote-work vs in-presence work one WILL swing back. I expect many of us will get a great deal of enjoyment in seeing it when it does.
Always laugh when I see a giant wall of code someone asks you to fix it. I ask for a picture or context. On the other hand if you don't see all the code you could be going down the wrong direction.
> "DALL-E 2's works very simply: ... a model called the prior maps the text encoding to a corresponding image encoding that captures the semantic information of the prompt contained in the text encoding. Finally, an image decoding model stochastically generates an image which is a visual manifestation of this semantic information."

> "The fundamental principles of training CLIP are quite simple: First, all images and their associated captions are passed through their respective encoders, mapping all objects into an m-dimensional space."

Not scared to admit I don't find this simple at all and I'm probably not in the target audience. I'd love a description that doesn't assume machine learning basics. Is there one?

Context matters.

Some locations they use "y'all", some use "you guys". It's gender neutral in that sense.

In the sentence you gave, the context wouldn't be gender neutral because you said "slept with".

If you enter a room and say hey guys, it's neutral. If it's all girls you could say hey gals, which would be fine, either works.

I can't imagine anyone other than liberals that would be offended by a blanket statement of "hey guys".

It's really a stupid thing to get hung up on. It's like searching for something to offend you.

It doesn't make sense until you realize the goal. What you're doing is creating arbitrary rules to form a kind of censorship via social pressure because you can't censor speech legally.
DEI is a great system as long as you assume that everyone participates, everyone is completely free of biases

Having been on more than a couple DEI boards, I'm really curious where the notion that everyone must be "completely free of biases" comes from in your mind? I've never understood, and never saw any DEI effort describing bias to be something to be completely, utterly and totally eradicated, but instead something to recognize as a source of potentially--but not always--folly-filled actions ("what happens when you assume, you make an ass out of you and me", etc).

Everyone has biases about something or another. Every last one of us.

That's why such things as "implicit" vs "explicit" bias exists, and any DEI effort worth its salt should really be making it known that there's a difference between the two.
Yet another sad story. I wanted to love those but I couldn't put up with the passive-matrix display.
> I do think most people don't care about 120$ a year per household, yes.

I really, really think you're wrong. The median household income in $67,521. That's not even close to "$120 isn't a big deal" territory, and half of households have less. More than half of American households have netflix, poor-ish people aren't just pirating the content. Smart TVs and chromecast like devices make pirating more difficult. Many people don't want to mess around with casting stuff to their TV from their computer.
Why exactly does it matter to the end user?

Given Signed Exchanges are entirely opt-in by the publisher/website operator, what's the difference between this and a CDN? Isn't that "lying" about what site you're on? It's not theverge.com - it's Cloudflare!
Why would any sane consumer purchase those games when Nintendo has no track record of honoring purchases? Nintendo aggressively cuts off access to consumers past purchases in the hopes that they buy the same retro games again on the new system. Not just by not sharing retro game purchases between systems, but also not even letting consumers still download their purchases on older systems.

It's like buying a book that's set to self-destruct a decade from now - no sane consumer would buy such a product.
OpenMower Open Source DIY Smart GPS Robotic Mower
The Open Mower project allows you to build your own smart lawn mower robot using the Raspberry Pi and an Arduino. The robot is able to localize itself using very precise RTK GPS. As base for this project, an off-the-shelf robot mower is used. The electric components and the software are published as an open source project.

This robot lawn mower is able to record a map of your lawn and mow it automatically. All path planning and navigation is done on the robot mower directly.

If you want to build your own GPS robotic lawn mower, you can get the hardware and software on GitHub. But since this is an expensive project, I recommend to ask your questions in my Discord before you start building your own robotic lawn mower.

When I buy a laptop with an upgrade path in mind, the hope is that I will do so in 2-3 years, not next week. Otherwise I am just spending a bunch of money on hardware that I will not actually use for very long.

Alder Lake and Zen 3 have been out for a while now, so I do not think it is unreasonable to expect a brand new laptop to ship with either of them.
SSR is generally for SEO and performance
Just based on the docs, on the lowest level they both create a mapping from input features to relations. Then NeuraLogic has an example for implementing GCN like message passing with a simple relational rule:

```
node2(X) <= W node1(Y), edge(X, Y)
```

Do you know, is it possible to implement something on Scallop as well, or are the differences much larger?
Netflix Plans to Launch Cheaper Ad-Supported Plans
The thing that turned me off discovery was, why even go to the stars? You could have just stayed at home and been miserable there, instead.

I would however, pay good money for "Star Trek: all David Bowie edition" where an entire starship is crewed with David Bowie clones.
Exactly. That is my point.

They know that Netflix is a side project compared to the likes of the MAMAA companies: Microsoft, Apple, Meta, Amazon and Alphabet, where 3 out of 5 of them are already competing against Netflix through their own side projects.

Netflix doesn't stand a chance if they continue to keep raising prices.
That's a good point, however, the original point still stands.

The term 'hey guys' may very well be materially 'inclusive' enough that it doesn't warrant intervention necessary.

In much the same way 'landlord' is not materially a non-inclusive term either.

If you want to split hairs, it's a never ending problem, the sweater will come apart.

Some people draw the line at 'hey guys' - some people draw the line at 'landlord'.

And FYI - your statement about 'Inclusivity is not an American problem' reeks of ugly cultural Imperialism. Though there's surely a kernel of truth, more than likely the applied manner will boil down to 'Americans version of everything at the remote office' - which is paradoxically might be 'exclusionary' of other cultures, like those in Australia.

A better approach might be to let Australia figure it out on their own.

How Cyberwarfare Works
Neither Madam Secretary nor Designated Survivor originated on Netflix.
Hmm. I guess that makes sense if you're looking comparatively within an area. I'm talking about an area as a whole; in particularly, I'm thinking of Venice CA and the DTLA arts district, as two distinct areas.

(AFAIK) Venice is pretty much entirely shit house -> excellent house development, with some multi-unit (townhouses). DTLA is shit building -> modern condos / luxury apts.

AFAIK in both places a secondary effect of all development is that each area becomes more desirable. I guess, sure, if one stopped becoming more desirable the pull from the other would change demand between the two, but, a) they're not, they're both developing, b) (anecdotally) that's a drop in the bucket compared to the overall demand, and c) they have sufficiently different appeals that the demand isn't coming from the same people.
There is a difference between obfuscated JS and minimized. Minimized can be unminimized. Also, two wrongs don't make a right.
NFT smart contract with on chain auction

I'm this friend for my group, except no local hardware - it's a shared server in Canada (a seedbox, for those who want a term to google). I maintain the understanding with friends that it's a rotating library - you request something and it will get added. But it also gets removed when you're done, or when it's been sitting there for a few months unwatched.
If you've still got your plan up, happy to give you an extended trial if you want!

But overall I think you're right on both points. I've been wanting to add better support for modeling options for a while; for anyone who'd like to bump priority there, feel free to upvote this item in changemap: https://changemap.co/projectifi/projectifi/task/5735-better-...

For #2, I'll do some thinking to gauge level of effort in rigging up a mechanic like that with the current stack. Losing data sucks, and I should take more steps to reduce the chances of that happening to anyone in the onboarding funnel.
> at least one main character is gay, queer, or trans, even if the story doesn't make sense. I live in an ultra blue city and the population here is not as LGBT as Netflix plots are. I don't really care that there are LGBT characters but when you shove it into every story plot it gets old.

Doesn't make sense?

And being one of those things isn't shoving it into plots. If you have a typical number of main characters then it's really not notable for one to be LGBT.
Yeah. HN should just switch to markdown. ;)
If only they were that smart… they probably have the “block all sites with no reputation information” option turned on… which is functionally “all sites the vendor hasn’t indexed yet” and hits brand new sites.
Wow, these guys are awesome. Love to see a company take a new, and potentially long view towards customers and profitability. Most companies in their position would be jealously guarding this information and would be paranoid about cheap clones taking away their market/customers. But this team is not.

Shows they are confident in their ability to not just rest on laurels, but continue to develop a platform, add value, and earn their customers business.

Now, if only we could get a lovely M1 Pro chip (or something like it) into their deserving hands! At the moment my Mac 16 Pro is unbelievably better than all the x86 competition out there ... except for the fact that its a totally proprietary and unrepairable black box.

I would love to see AMD, Nvidia, or a company like SiFive release something like the M1 Pro, and then an integrator like Framework put it all into a great package and finally give Apple the competition they need.
This thread gave me flashbacks to the Evernote 10 controversy that happened nearly two years ago.

I didn't use Evernote that much prior to the fallout, but when that happened I was hesitant to continue using it. I fell into a rabbit hole of searching for note apps, and I decided to use OneNote for that (as well as Apple Notes). Then I ran into Obsidian[0] and after looking at its features on noteapps.info[1], I decided to bite the bullet and use it. And wow, I don't regret it one bit.

I did use it a good amount in the past, but with the release of its mobile app and the amount of plugins we have now, I've been using it as my daily knowledge management app for several months now. It's also completely based on local markdown files, so you're not as locked in compared to other apps. It's completely free as well. You do have to pay if you want to use their own syncing service, but again, it's based on local files so you can easily sync by making your vault a Google Drive folder or some other method (some even use Git to sync their files!)

And I cannot stress how fantastic the community is enough. There are so many amazing plugins and people have done so much crazy shit with their notes. The community is also extremely helpful and welcoming.

Eleanor Konik runs a newsletter called Obsidian Roundup[2], which basically summarizes any recent plugins, discussions, shared workflows, events, etc. that happened in the week. She also has a page for Obsidian resources[3].

Wow this turned out longer than I expected.
