It's because you're the CEO of ChiselStrike.

I don't get it but there's a good chunk of people who are ready to jump on anything that looks even slightly comercial by even one single aspect. I've been told my personal blog was AI generated blog spam once in the past when I had literally nothing to sell. I also don't understand the fundamental issue with having a commercial involvement as long as you aren't trying to BS people or shove advertising down their throats.
How are so many people on this forum of all places advocating for unaccountable opaque private entities to almost cut off access to the internet for organizations that have not been convicted of any crime?
I'd just like to remind the downvoters that most early 90s compacts put down well over 40mpg with the manual, easily 50+ if you try, and around 30 no matter what you do if equipped with a 3spd auto. Depending on differences in usage patterns and driving style I low 50s vs high 20s is extreme but plausible.
Do you only drive on huge freeways or something?

Where I live (where manuals are the "default") it seems like automatics are the fetishistic option. There's lots of hills, winding country roads etc round here, an automatic is a bloody nightmare because it doesn't "know" I'm approaching a hill, time to drop to a lower gear just here, I'm approaching the top of a hill, change up now, I'm overtaking on a road, I need high acceleration now. It completely fails at knowing all this and is less efficient as a result.

This is why I am sceptical of all the "automatics are more efficient these days" line. Maybe there's some volkswagen style dodgy tests that show that driving under predictable conditions on a motorway it is more efficient, but as automatics can't know upcoming conditions on the road or intentions I doubt they are more efficient in the real world. At least not round here.
We've already got vtubers playing robot characters, it feels like it's only a matter of time before someone attempts to make a 'true' AI vtuber. Though I suspect we're still a while away from AI being able to complete arbitrary video games.
Apparently there is a homeland character with exactly the same name and they are portrayed as a terrorist. Seems like a random fluke.
Revoked Certificate on eBay Messages Service
With Elixir or Erlang you can go pretty far without a message queue.
Targeted harassment of minorities sounds like a crime to me. Shouldn't the police be investigating and prosecuting this crime instead of some random internet CDN company?
Cloudflare is not a regulated provider of essential services / utilities. Right from their tos: "We may at our sole discretion suspend or terminate your access to the Websites and/or Online Services at any time, with or without notice for any reason or no reason at all." (and they have done so before)
this makes sense to me - pay a premium each month, get protected from trolls. Up to the insurer whether to pay the "licence fee" or fight them in court, and they can make that decision on behalf of all their customers.
> Watching anime signals to a woman that you that you lack some important qualities.

Either you need to meet better women, or—and this is more likely—you need to meet any woman. There are plenty of women who enjoy anime, and would be happy to share what they enjoy with their partner.
That's the key to it all - you have HR startups, insurance firms, cybersecurity firms etc. bundle the cost of patent troll insurance into their product, give them a commission, and have them sell it to small businesses - not just startups. Then you can keep the price much more affordable because you have an economy of scale!
I would expect due process.
Something like court order or equivalent.
So we have a Java Virtual Machine that runs a PicoLisp Virtual Machine which runs PicoLisp programs.

The circle of life?

Perhaps the next step would be to implement a Java Virtual Machine in PicoLisp.
Exactly. He is intrinsically motivated because he is always working on things that appeal to him. He found his passion. That is the most relevant thing. Those of us who have no passions and yet still have the skills to work in similar fields have to find another way to make it work...
That's too bad :(

I remember seeing them everywhere in Australia when I visited.
> you barely have any control on what it does,

You have quite a lot of control from style and colour to composition by feeding in initial images. You can do this iteratively, selecting parts you want to keep and others you want to adjust.

Photography hasn't killed art, yet you can describe it as "point at something and press a button". Sure you'll get something out of it, and it might be alright. But the great outputs take more work and care, just like with the air art now.
The Iron Triangle: pick at most two. Most likely pick one. End up with none if you're unlucky.
It took me quite a while to really get the hang of driving. I was learning on standard shift. Definitely stalled a lot that first day, and second.

On the other hand, it comes easier to some people. I taught my best friend, and he was better than I within about a minute. I gave him the general instructions on how it works and he stalled twice and then he was fine.

I think that the ease of use curve is entirely dependent on the thing between the shifter and the seat.
> Your attractivity will go below zero if you mention that you like some anime movie.

Watch the movie together first, then mention you like it after. Your attractivity will go through the roof.
The situation I meant was for a bicycle passing in the gap between the right hand lane and the curb, not on a separate bicycle lane.

> That would seem like an invitation to power abuse

As in, cars could set their turn signals all the time? Pretty sure that would be against the law, and it would probably be easier to achieve that effect by hogging the right side of the lane (which is also against the law, except when combined with setting the signals and preceding a right turn).
Golang gRPC distributed context propagation
Just want to note that suggestion #2 is easily detected by any org with even a whiff of security tooling in place. Quick way to get terminated.
"Don't tell them you're working from Europe."

Please don't do this. Honesty goes along way. It can also have legal, tax and compliance imitations for you and your employer.
I mean, at some point you have to consider something a "proper" message queue. Otherwise, at the lower extreme your web server would act as a message queue.
Awesome Censys Queries
A collection of fascinating and bizarre Censys Search queries.
Personal intros could definitely be an option, although no one jumps out, so I might have to take a more systematic approach.

Hmm, I didn't even consider accelerators (how ironic). I do think I have a couple of "weak" contacts there. Thanks for the tips! :)
I am! but Chiselstrike doesn't sell a message queue, so still don't understand how I'm selling one.

It's an abstraction over a message queue, which is only one feature among many.

But btw, as a pointy-haired dude I am becoming (although I am bald), if someone really wants to buy a message queue from me, I'll happily sell it!
"The Peace of Wild Things" by Wendell Berry

When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.
Ironically, it gets worse the more money you throw at it, even if you picked cost as a preferred focus.
For anyone in doubt, I'm saying this as a maintainer, random people's patches on average suck. Taking those patches is likely to cost me more time than they save. So why would I be adamant about encouraging strangers to write patches?
It seems boring as computer engineers but put yourself in the shoes of someone who doesn't know what "non-deterministic" means and thinks that tech companies are cabals intent on world domination and this kind of stuff would seem a lot more interesting
We really admire what cloudflare did in dealing with patent trolls… “Patent troll” should not be an acceptable profession in America, or anywhere for that matter!

We will announce more on this soon. Cloudflare’s crowdsourced prior art search was brilliant.
There is no need for that "right-wing" snub there, the same is happening here in Sweden where power prices in the middle and south have been going through the roof even though power generation costs have mostly [1] been unchanged due to the majority of power generation coming from hydroelectric plants (the north) and nuclear plants (the south). Prices have shot up in the south of Sweden because that part of the country is connected to the European grid and exports power generated in the north. Sweden is divided into 4 price regions, the price difference between the top 2 regions and the bottom 2 tends to be enormous. The explanation for the price difference is supposed to be the lack of power generation capacity in the south [see 1, again] while the north and middle have an excess of generating capacity but supposedly lack the network capacity to export this power to the south. That this is not correct is shown by the fact that the power actually is exported through the network [2] and from there finds its way to consumers both in Sweden as well as in neighbouring countries. The majority of the price difference is found between region SE2 and SE3 with power in SE3 often being several times more expensive than in SE2 (currently at €27/MHh in SE2, €525/MWh in SE3 for a factor of 20) with the proceedings of that differential going to the state. Everyone in Sweden paid for the creation of the power infrastructure but those living in the south get to pay dearly due to this artificial price difference.

[1] thanks to the "green party" shutting down half of the nuclear capacity the top load oil-fired power plant in Karlshamn which used to run only during the coldest periods of winter is now running in the heart of summer, consuming between 70 m³ and 140m³ of oil per hour - it has been running for more hours this year than it ran for the last 10 years combined. Oil did get more expensive but Karlshamn still only produces a tiny fraction of power delivered here

None of what you describe costs fuel, nor does it cause "lots of revs"? Upshifting "too much" is the opposite, it's fewer revs (and therefore less fuel used, not more)
Simon Cowell - most referenced person I see with @simon.
As EVs proliferate to work vehicles we'll likely see 2spd and maybe 3spd gearboxes for the same reason trucks have multiple gear ranges. There is a point at which a simple high/low planetary gearset with a simple engagement mechanism has better tradeoffs than an electric motor that can operate happily and reliably throughout the entire torque/speed range you need (which is the same reason your cordless drill has two gears).
Sure, but that is a technical legal issue. If the GP wishes to disrupt the business of some other organization that has not been proven in a court of law to break any laws, they should be logically consistent and ask for this cessation of business not just from CloudFlare, but from every company; that the utilities are legally barred from cutting service in this way is secondary.
Erlang is dope!
Parent is making a (unclear and dubious) comment about how much each vehicle is used, not how many people own vehicles.
I’m not sure about England, but in the US how it works is:

The party making the offer can make a part 36 offer (or state equivalent if it exists), which grants automatic presumptions of cost sharing if rejected and the case ends with a more favorable (to the offering party) settlement or reward.

They can do a less formal without prejudice save as to costs offer, which is one the courts can use to decide cost charging, but does not get automatic presumptions of how the sharing should work.

Lastly they can make just plain without prejudice settlement offers. Which won’t factor into costs at all.

Which type of offer to make depends on who (claimant or defendant) is making the offer, and how certain they are about the amount that will be awarded at trial.

For example if a defendant is making an offer that they are absolutely convinced is more than will be awarded at trial (with the idea being that it would cost less than doing the trial without any offer, and having the normal each party pays own costs rule apply), it makes sense to make it a part 36 offer.

However when making a lowball offer, or a reasonable one but that could well be less than what gets awarded at trial, a without prejudice offer is probably better.

On the claimants side, when making a offer that they are convinced is below what they will actually win it may make sense to make it a Part 36 offer. If making an offer closer to or above what they will probably actually win, a without prejudice offer could be more sensible.

I sometimes release software under an OSS license. I sometimes take patches from people. Other times I reject them because it's not the direction I want to take the project.

I sometimes use software under an OSS license. Sometimes I submit patches for fixes and they get accepted after appropriate amounts of reviews. Sometimes I maintain an internal fork for years before my fix lands. Sometimes I choose a different solution because my projects needs no longer align with the software's direction.

At no point do I ever think it's a great idea to bully an OSS maintainer into my way of thinking. I have all kinds of empathy for both groups but the rules of engagement here are very clear and anyone who thinks they should be different is just going to be hurt in the long run.

Love to see the experimental npm support.

deno init is a bit silly imo.
Where are you based out of?

I'm not in the EU, but rather in Turkiye. I'm a US citizen, and though it's legal to work here for companies who don't have a local presence, the HR departments at American companies tend to get cold feet.

I'm curious how you check? I ended up hiring a lawyer to research legality here. A site that explains all of these for any region would be pretty sweet.

You can still get manual door locks and windows on the 2023 JL Sport and Willys Sport, but these start at 30k.
Point was that 2021 fashion was rerun of a past trend.
>Doesn’t this make these kind of chatbots useless until this issue is fixed? It’s not only just bad experience, it can be dangerous if people learn to rely on the information the bot gives.

Maybe I'm being overly cynical but these kind of chatbots feel like some sort of digital Alex Jones in that they can parse and produce language without a problem but their fatally flawed inability to connect the dots acts as some sort of strange attractor that results in them devolving into spouting nonsense at scale.

Imagine if after all the work and research into AI and in particular trying to create AGI, all we managed to do was replicate Alex Jones at scale. I shudder to think.
They would also rub out the ink and reuse the paper. The term for this is Palimpsest:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palimpsest

I came across this practice when reading the Chapter of Fathers in the Mishna:

"Elisha ben Abuyah said: He who learns when a child, to what is he compared? To ink written upon a new writing sheet. And he who learns when an old man, to what is he compared? To ink written on palimpsest. Rabbi Yose ben Judah a man of Kfar Ha-babli said: He who learns from the young, to what is he compared? To one who eats unripe grapes, and drinks wine from his vat; And he who learns from the old, to what is he compared? To one who eats ripe grapes, and drinks old wine. Rabbi [Yehuda] said: don’t look at the container but at that which is in it: there is a new container full of old wine, and an old [container] in which there is not even new [wine]."
In which case those countries can get a court order and have Cloudflare remove their services from that company. They're not endorsing a forum by providing them the same services they do anyone else, and it sets a very scary precedence for a private company to shut down speech (however deplorable one may find it).

Another way of looking at it - should there be a concerted (and successful!) effort from the Christian Right in America to start taking positions of power in major tech firms, would you be happy for them to stop serving people/companies who held social views at odds with their own?
I mean, they're selling something. According to the TFA, it's an abstraction that may or may not use a backend message queue, but your app shouldn't care. So they're not selling a message queue, but they're selling something.
Seems a little unpatriotic, doesn't it? I mean they're both American companies.
I have an American contracting company, but rather the problem is a lack of customers.

To start a company here I have to hire two or three local employees before I am allowed to conduct business. It's a fairly anti-business country.
You do realize that it's not black and white, right? Just because someone for eg prays in their personal life doesn't mean that they're untrustworthy doctors. Or do you ask if your doctor is an atheist before the appointment?
So? Are you arguing that it is good for a company to have and wield this kind of power to attack other organizations that it believes are engaging in conduct they don't like?

Or has Kiwi Farms been shown in a court of law to have engaged in the behavior you describe?
You're completely right, I don't know how I made that mistake when the article literally says longitude. I'll blame the fact that I wrote the comment during a meeting before I had my coffee for the day.
So Cloudflare provides CDN services for a forum that has content that (in some opinions) should be illegal (but probably isn’t) and, on that basis, Cloudflare should refuse them service?

I’d hope to live a world where Cloudflare would host speech that I like and agree with and speech that I disagree with on equal terms. (If it’s legal, the bits flow.) I literally do not want opinions different from my own to be silenced.
> Don't tell them you're working from Europe.

I’d argue they’d need to know due to income tax withholding for a given state.
What mechanism(s) do you use to download articles and videos?
We observe very clearly that teams consistently fail to write vuln-free C applications of any meaningful technical or organizational complexity. Following various guidelines empirically does not solve the problem.
> Many digital nomads are skilled knowledge workers who earn well beyond the €2,000-€3,500 monthly income requirements of most European digital visa programs—a big reason so many countries and towns are trying to lure them.

So, what gives as an European SW developer in this income bracket?

1. Go to US
2. Negotiate US salary
3. Come back to your native village, hopefully with "well beyond" money
4. Profit?

Or just directly work for an US company, I guess.
I very much doubt this. One of the clues is the reproduction of artifacts that have nothing to do with the original prompt - for example the Getty images logo.

In this case, I think that the hand and its shadow are both part of a single original artwork. If they weren't, there would be two other explanations I could see: one, that the AI understands lighting and 3d somewhat, and applied the shadow accordingly, or two, that there are many such images that have a hand a shadow in a similar place, and therefore the AI has it as an association of sorts. I find both of these explanations less likely than the original theory, which would be that the hand and the shadow are part of a single original work that was, even if not copied verbatim, then used as unmistakable influence for the result.
Is it inconceivable that vaccine could cause difficulties for people in conceiving? If so, how is it irrelevant?

Re evidence, I have posted articles about data analysis etc. These are also frequently flagged.

In general though, I have little faith in the scientific establishments. It seems clear that they are politicised, and are serving agendas. In what world can an 80 year old be in charge of medical policy for decades, with ethical oversight being provided by his wife! Or re-defining what vaccines and viruses are? Or re-defining what can be put on death certificates as cause of death (ie, with, not from, covid)? Or that we can invoke emergency legislation and expedite unacceptably tested treatments which are effectively mandated by corporations? Etc. That's not the scientific method - it's a political stitch up.

So I don't think sciencific studies or those reporting on them, merit our trust - we are not get the impartial information. And hacker news is a part of the control structure, only allowing corporate messaging to be shared.

That's for EDF though, other providers might show it in a less obvious way I guess.

I generally agree with your comment though.
There are a lot of prompts and results that aren't being included. Not sure what the criteria were.
Currently, I've been a compiler engineer (and using Haskell for a good portion of it... I'm a unicorn I get) at several hardware startups. New silicon is all the rage these days as we hit the edges of moore's law.

Right now, I work on a hardware AI accelerator. Not directly on the compiler at this place, but there's a large compiler team. Before this, I was doing something similar.

There's actually a huge open space right now. Don't limit yourself just to turing-complete, general-purpose languages on general purpose architectures. The more specialized, the more opportunity.
Agree, sensors in phones are good enough for a lot of use cases. The second lighting becomes an issue, or even worse, the lense starts to matter phones still loose. They do take very good pictures so, albeit already with some post procssing applied. Shooting RAW means you have to do that.
While on this subject, does anyone know where to find archives of ancient manuscripts to download? Manuscript collections are scattered across different museums/libraries, and it's been difficult to find any digital collections that for example, would allow you to download all manuscripts from ancient rome in bulk.
