Sure great. Everyone loves to punch high dollar contemporary abstract art sales. It’s a pretty well worn and boring critique of a narrow corner of contemporary art.

My point still holds that anything vaguely representational looks kind of bad and has an uncanny quality. It’s clear that the trick is a kind of collage in most of the images I’ve seen.
Yes I see now what you mean. The Power* family of tools is quiet powerful.

I'm now reconsidering if I'm a power user of spreadsheets! For these extra features I'll use R as it's more powerful and reproducible.
The vast majority of doctors did not believe in germ theory 170 years. There were like one or two people called cranks telling surgeons to wash their hands before surgery. The vast majority can often be wrong. It’s a terrible input
r/fermentation is another solid resource. Definitely search the archives over there for a ton of valuable info.
I tried to respond to them constructively elsewhere, but this is the correct take so I'm just gonna agree with it.
This operates on the very narrow view that the only value of art is its aesthetics, and that art can be measured against objective ratings.

I value art because it communicates something from an actual human being, like an exchanging between consciousnesses. When I can derive the choices of an author or photographer or any other class of artist, I find a mutual perspective that, at the root of it, makes me feel understanding and understood.

This article (posted here a few days ago) has a great argument on why AI art isn’t art:

Well, what I mean is the horses and carriages aren’t even produced anymore since we don’t want them, and they didn’t do anything to make themselves useful again, not being sentient.

The human beings previously called artists will still be around as humans and will still have jobs, even if it’s some other job.

“Artist” is a vague term though, and I think we’d still have a lot of them due to Jevons’ paradox, the same way ATM machines have actually caused the number of bank tellers to increase. Especially because it’s high-status for society to say they support artists, which isn’t the case for other service workers like bank tellers.

There is a niche for horse rides, though - they’re romantic and I’ve seen them as tourist gimmicks in different cities. Artists have a bigger niche, as AI art (so far) produces digital images and not, say, physical sculpture or paintings.
Yeah the FreeBSD team is full of common sense, which is why I use it so much. Also much less likely to drink the corporate Kool-Aid.
The logic is that removing buttons would make the cars cheaper as they have historically had buttons up until very recently. I imagine it did, by several dollars, but it was overwhelmed by the increase in other features. Now with touch screens they are able to iterate even quicker and add more features of dubious quality, but it looks better in comparison checklists.

We all go through phases in our lives in which we like one genre of music but not another.

For me it was Heavy Metal around the 70s and Rap in the 90s. They just didn't connect with me.

I even went though a phase in the late-90s where I liked House and Trance Music while my step-son liked Classical. It used to make me laugh to see the looks on his girlfriends' faces as they came in the front-door past my thumping bass and moved through to his room where gentle Classical was playing.
I mean you've made the fantastic point for why people care already.

People care especially if they feel a very successful business has slow and clunky apps. It's research.

How did they end up in the position they're in? What good/bad decisions do they feel they made?

Obviously it's interesting to people in the space. Where is anyone saying it's because they want to emulate it?
What can be done to fix Product Hunt?
I have used Product Hunt for years and recently started helping friends launch on there.

There are plenty of posts on here, and other forums that are making visible some of the issues Product Hunt has, particularly around being an echo-chamber, filled with spam / fake accounts and needing a significant amount of marketing for most launches to be considered "successful".

My question is, how can this be fixed?

> Nowadays there's more music being created and consumed than ever, but the musicians don't make nearly as much money as in the golden days of the CD. The mega-stars like Billy Eillish still make a good amount through brand deals / live shows, but the 'middle class' of musicians has fallen away.

I’m not sure where you got the impression that the bygone era of the CD was so lucrative, or that its largess was more evenly distributed in a meaningful way. If you’re open to challenging that conception, I’d highly recommend reading Steve Albini’s article, The Problem With Music (also sometimes titled Some Of Your Friends Are Already This Fucked; not linked because it doesn’t have a canonical link and I’m never sure which site reposting it can be relied on not to edit it). Anyway the tl;dr is this: to the extent there’s ever been a more even distribution of earnings for musicians, that certainly wasn’t attributable to CD sales. The article was written fairly early in the CD era, and those dynamics deepened through that period. I’m doubtful it was ever attributable to any particular sale of recordings on any kind of media. Then, as now (and probably since well before recording technology was available) musicians making a decent or better living by and large made the majority of it performing live.

For what it’s worth, the article I mentioned factored greatly into my decision not to pursue a music career, even as I embraced the early availability of cheap digital recording (and intermittently still do). I’m sure there’s an alternate universe where I’d be thrilled that my life’s work would be playing music, but I have little doubt that my entry into the middle class would have been far less likely than by taking up programming.
If that were possible then ProtonMail would have certainly said so, since that'd garner serious attention. In any case, the functionality as a whole isn't documented, so even if it works, Apple could theoretically take it away just like that. That of course doesn't mean we shouldn't rely on it, since if the only other option is a corpnet we're left with little other choice. I have the same problem with Apple because I depend on static binaries. Under the Apple regime, they too have an uncertain future and only continue to exist at Apple's pleasure. It's discomforting but not the end of the world.

Per this thread, apparently some engineers really dislike artists. I wonder if this is because artists and engineers both claim expertise in the meaning making process - a painting, or an app. I make my paycheck via that meaningless tech money like most others here, but that aside, I’m under no illusions that I’m doing much beyond solving crossword puzzles for high pay and providing for my family.

Every time tech wades into high minded ideals for its products, it seems to find ways to destroy the thing it’s helping, or put another way have extreme negative externalities. Oil and cars connected relatives via ease of travel and caused what looks like one-way pollution. Facebook and Twitter connected people and then did <wave hand, all this>.

I think engineers selectively ignoring the above for a long time is a source of extreme disgruntlement later career, and maybe why the artist hate exists?

I have never heard of a piece of world changing art have the same negative externalities, or really any lasting negative externalities, as world changing tech.
I see a lot of people saying "price" and "they look stupid," and I'm not saying those things are wrong, but it seems pretty obvious to me that size/design was a major factor. Segways are clunky and heavy. Scooters are light and nimble. Products in this space need to be easy to carry up a flight of stairs and they need to be as unobtrusive as possible when dropped in an entryway. The Segway fails both tests.
They used to publish some benchmarks on their site, but seem to have removed them. You can find them on archive.org[1]. I guess it is understandable, since vector search performance is pretty unpredictable, and depends on a lot of factors. If their target market is people who want vector search without needing to read a bunch of papers first, benchmarks might be more confusing than they are helpful.

edit: While I do think it's understandable, it's not great for transparency. Even if they don't want to open-source their index, I would admire it if they were willing to give ann-benchmarks[2] an API key to publish some independent results.

Disclaimer: I work on vector search at a different company

I am sure that art is very hard work. I also happen to believe that art is extremely valuable to society. I enjoy art almost constantly throughout the day and it makes my life better.

I just don't appreciate the sentiment that artists deserve to exclusively make the art they want, the way they want because art holds a special value to society that needs to be supported.

Our society is drowning in art. There are millions of hours of content; videos, photos, drawings, music, books, etc that one can consume at any moment and more is being created every day. With this in mind it's pretty hard to believe that society isn't supporting artists enough.

Sure some artists are poor but many are well off or even rich. You can't same the same for people who pick vegetables which we need to eat to not die

That's all fine, until the apps that ran fine on a laptop won't run in the real environments, and then the devops people need to loop in the devs to debug it. Quite a lot of the time, it will be a problem with the manifest not providing something the app container expects, like a permission or a port binding or a missing ConfigMap. Everyone loses productivity when that happens.
Your concerns regarding averaging and the lack of specifics are both addressed in the article.

In short, it's a mistake to judge AI art by its current capability. It's about to go on an exponential tour.

We heard similar comments about linux and GNU a few decades ago.
i did recently boot a windows machine running windows 10 that i unplugged about 3 years ago. It took about 2 hours to fully update on my crap wired internet, but now works fine. i3-7350k with NVME. I was shocked that everything worked so well, i fully expected to have to boot into something and recover the windows install key and do a full reformat-reinstall.

now if i'd do that with something that had the original release of winten, probably not. But i'd happily boot a win7 machine that was >3 years offline.
> not least due to lack of charging network

It's true that there need to be more fast chargers, but it's also true that this notion of "no charging network for CCS cars" is making less sense every month.

You can get across America and Canada on CCS chargers. For example on Petro-Canada or Electrify America (and there are more charging networks than just these two):

- https://www.electrifyamerica.com/locate-charger/

- https://www.petro-canada.ca/en/personal/fuel/canadas-electri...

A Better Route Planner is a good tool to try out routes in various models of EV to see how easy or hard a given trip will be:

- https://abetterrouteplanner.com/

Europe sensibly standardized on CCS type 2 Combo so any brand of car can charge on any brand of charger. Even Tesla is finally opening their chargers to all brands in Europe:

- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Y33AArvMUQ

Eventually Tesla will do the same in North America and that will make more CCS chargers available.
So it's a VPN but it doesn't do anything that you expect from a VPN? It doesn't let me access devices in a LAN, it doesn't hide my IP, it doesn't change my country... then what is Warp good for?

I tend to have a compose file that is designed to be used with `envsubst` for deployment via the CI, so a CI specific template. This way the CI can create the final file and `scp` it over to the host before calling `docker compose up`. The file always ends up with the same name and same location on the host so `docker compose` can detect any changes. So far haven't had any issues, but definitely not as clear as having `compose.dev.yml`/`compose.prod.yml` in source control, though very flexible.

> I can understand the large screen, but really, it should just be a normal external screen your phone can output to.

CarPlay is so good (and far safer) because it doesn't just mirror your phone's landscape view, but presents a driving-specific experience.

Not-mirroring has another advantage in that your phone can still be used (by a passenger, of course) to do whatever while CarPlay continues to do its thing.

I'm not sure about the severance, you would certainly need to negotiate that. I did know a person who offered to take the layoff even though they were not slated to, and it worked out fine for them. They got the layoff severance, COBRA, etc. that you would normally not get if you quit. But it would be different in each situation.

> All they do is let you get onto the public, untrusted, internet through a different on-ramp. There is no point to them.

Not true, at all. There are several good reasons to use VPNs to get a different on-ramp to the otherwise untrusted internet.

- Avoid ISP tracking: Your ISP should see only traffic to and from the VPN.

- Access content intended for those in other regions: Many sites and services only show certain content to people who enter the internet from specific places.

- Limit the amount of activity linked by trackers: Visiting certain sites only from different IPs/browsers will help keep logs of that traffic isolated from the logs of your other browsing.

- Allows you to connect to sites and services that cannot connect back to you once you've disconnected: A lot of people, even those with dynamic IPs, keep their address for months or years at a time. VPNs provide a great way to cycle through IPs.

VPNs don't solve every problem, but they're a powerful tool to keep in your tookbox.

There are many many very valuable uses for VPNs some that offer privacy/security benefits and some that are just plain useful. It's wild to hear anyone say that "There is no point to them."

Ask HN: Digital nomad without leaving the US, why does it feel overlooked?
I am curious about digital nomading in the future and almost always they're traveling internationally, but I am more interested in hearing of digital nomad experiences that involve traveling within the US. There's still plenty of room to stretch your legs in a country of this size. Lots of beautiful locations that I'd like to visit and sight-see without me needing a passport.

Digital nomads somehow became more synonymous with air travel across the globe but for some reason I don't hear much about the ones who are backpacking and road traveling without leaving the US. Is it mostly because of the appeal to live more cheaply in many other countries?
Dig through the teaching staff roster looking for adjunct professors, and ask them if the company they work for has any internship positions open.

That’s an interesting observation that I hadn’t considered. My enthusiasm for EVs has been pretty unmitigated previously. I still think climate is important enough that dealing with the safety stuff is probably tractable and also the lesser evil, but it’s good to have line of sight on it.

FWIW Ford was hiring around this area (southern Ontario) for software engineers to work on their in-car systems like this. Not sure if this specific one. From what I've heard they were woefully underpaying. A friend of mine talked to them -- very qualified; like me he worked on similar touchscreen, interactive display type systems at Google/Nest, and had a general background on similar systems, and on QNX, etc. They tried to lowball him badly. Like 1/2 the rate he asked for (contract) and probably 1/3rd or 1/4 what we made at Google. I saw a posting from them recently, again, and they were crowing about how they wanted to see candidate's GPA's etc. etc. I don't have a degree, so even if I hadn't heard about their low pay, I wouldn't even consider applying despite being probably very qualified for what they were doing. We had a whole team at Google that worked on getting rid of "jank" and improving FPS and performance on a really low-spec SoC. I wasn't any kind of expert on that team, but I learned a little. But they clearly weren't willing to pay reasonable for talent (like most local Canadian employers, frankly)

All of this to say: You get what you pay for.

how is the latency on audio with that setup? I use qemu with GPU passthrough, 1060 on linux and 1070 on windows for a few years now, and i had to buy a laptop to do music production because of the latency. The only other solution was to passthrough a USB soundcard, but about 15 years ago i discovered i can't actually play live notes on a MIDI device with the latency on the USB subsystem.
