Neither DALLE version 1 or 2 was completely released. Further, DALLE2 definitely still has issues with generation of text, although latent diffusion can do an okay job of it.
I can only speak from personal experience but that is what happened to my family. My brother is a sociopath who caused our family a lifetime of difficulty. The biological mother was drug addict and abusive before adoption and he became an addict. My sister also adopted from different family was less of a problem but also had some issues. My dad was very kind and not abusive and spent way too much trying to help. Who knows maybe it was environment and early abuse or something but nature stacked the deck I think in my family. The other issue with adoption is limited access to family medical history.
A project being backed by a major company like Google is no guarantee of a well run project. For one project by Microsoft employees on GitHub, they don't appear to even read issues or trivial PRs.
Question! I'll assume your employer is paying you for your work project. For example, if you fixed the bug yourself, your employer would pay you for your time. If the maintainer fixes the bug, should your employer pay them for that work?
I think you should make sure, before choosing a dependency (framework or otherwise) that it either has the level of support (free or paid) that you require, or that you can easily replace it with something else that does or that you can build in-house (in case the maintainer won't merge your patches).

If a dependency fail to satisfy that requirement, it means you cannot afford it, even though it's apparently free.

Now from your description, it seems like you are paying someone else decision of choosing a framework the company could not afford, which sucks (as any situation where you inherit someone's debt), but in any case it's hard to blame the framework maintainer for that poor choice.
Well, the operator has to be able to link that temporary physical layer ID to some permanent billing ID, otherwise they will refuse your connection to their network.

Mirai Shōnen Konan ... I watched this with my kid when he was 7-ish ... man was that series great, my kid was addicted ... and yeah, it lasts for ever even though each episode is short.
Thank you for posting this, it can't have been easy to spell it out but the naysayers are going to have to come to terms with reality as it is experienced by those that actually have lived through this instead of just armchair theorizing about why it does not apply to them.

They have high mountains in there, including Alps, with highest peak at 2912 meters.
@StarFive: please bring ECC RAM to SBCs like this one.

It's got already most of what I look for.

Now if I'm going to use it as a lightweight home server, I want it to take good care of my data and not corrupt anything or have random crashes.

Making the RAM have ECC shouldn't increase its cost that much more, only maybe a few percent, right?
EV prices are going in the wrong direction
But SQLite is underrated. It’s an absolutely amazing piece of software which is why I am still bitter at the deprecation of WebSQL in favor of the far inferior IndexedDB.
Smart Guy Productivity Pitfalls(2013)
20 kids x 25mbps streams each is still only half a gig. You are way off here. The only way you saturate a gig is if you download big games from Steam, etc. If each of your kid is doing that you would probably run into fair use limits and have to set up a central PC for catching downloads and stuff but that's still a niche use case.
There's a fourth option: Pay them. Pay someone to prioritize and fix your issue. You mention a work project, a work project is a commercial project, and a commercial project has money to spend; money it SHOULD spend. Either on you - to fix and/or fork it - or someone else.

We use an open source mobile app framework and we have a guy on retainer for 8 hours / week for just that reason.
You are right, but in practice that's not what happens. Companies do not rely on open source libraries, the developers working for such companies do.

I can give you a realistic example. If you want to use Kafka and Go, your probably only option is to use https://github.com/confluentinc/confluent-kafka-go. Its LICENSE explicitly says "no warranty". Now, what if I find a bug in the library? Only two realistic solutions from my side:

1. I submit the issue and hope for the maintainers to fix it

2. I dig deeper and try to fix the issue. I submit the PR

None of the above scenarios are guaranteed to have a happy ending. The issue could be ignored, or piled up among thousand of other (maybe higher prio) issues. My solution may not be optimal and could be rejected (or if it's optimal, nobody is taking a look at it, and it could remain open for weeks/months).

> If that is a problem for you, negotiate a different contract up front - with the maintainer or someone else willing to do the work. That probably means paying them.

In the real world that would mean that I go to my manager and asks them to pay money to the maintainers of confluent-kafka-go to fix the issue I found. I don't think my manager would approve that, but let's imagine he does. The guys at confluent-kafka-go may not want money to fix the issue. These guys have probably already jobs that pay them well, and they work on the library at will.

Note: I'm talking about confluent-kafka-go, which I know is behind the Confluent software company. But I could as well be talking about libraries maintained by individuals like https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka
Like Apple? I suppose it is about trust, not as much about "ad serving" or not.

That said: FireFox4Life! (Or at least, until they betray my trust).
I actually posted this link because I could not sign in to my mailbox yesterday due to the fact I was using the DDG browser on my tablet but my comment about it got buried.
Well, this 'controlled demolition' of EU economy and relationships with the East (RU and CHI) has been the point since very long time ago (B. Obama had a very clever strategic trade deals which would assure that be established before D. Trump pulled out). Every serious economists wrote many article about the disastrous consequences for EU not pursuing peace but going for US induced 'proxy' war, which has no cost for the USA (if they play their cards right, they will be able to retain their hegemony and dollar as a reserve currency. This will in turn mean that they can continue to live in monetary bubble while the rest of the world has to get dollars only by producing real commodities).
Once you stop caring about image quality, the f-stop of a lens is only fundamentally constrained by the physical diameter and diopter of the lens. I suspect the f/2.5 figure is only being held back by the size of the lens barrel and aperture mechanism.
Check out this artist on youtube that uses Midjourney to draw something in 20 minutes that would usually take him hours: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsQgD9yNMxU
I'm surprised how very little this forum and the public in general knows or understands about the current capabilities and availability to these ai art generators.

You have midjourney.com
beta.dreamstudio.ai
craiyon.com (real quick version no fuss, low quality)
creator.nightcafe.studio

and those are just some of the entry-level ones. I make ai art all day long! Check out my media feed on twitter @Sheilaaliens
Nitter's settings page lists a bunch:

Youtube -> Invidious or Piped

Twitter -> Nitter

Instagram -> Bibliogram

Reddit -> Teddit

Most or all have numerous hosts and you can pick the one(s) that are most convenient or memorable to you. It's also possible to host these yourself, and I've suggested in the past that HN might consider doing so for Twitter specifically. Reddit possibly as well. (The others are fairly low-traffic on HN.)

Quora would be a nice addition to the list.
I assume some of the people do not understand either of these steps, and just keep pestering the author after they say no.
I was almost one of them. I think the way people manage tasks and external state is so situationally, personally and contextually dependent that most todo list software gets to 60% of people's ideal workflow and that just isn't enough to work long term.

I went back to a hardback notebook for a while and had quite a bit of success - the UX of pen and paper is really hard to beat, and you can implement whatever processes work on a page.

That's started failing to scale, so I've started to look at software again. I've been trialing Amazing Marvin for a few weeks now, and I'm pretty happy with it. Lots of very different features that can be individually turned on or off to customise your workflow. I'll very likely convert to a paid user soon.
As a fellow mutt user, I have the same complaints. Sometimes, the confirmation link can be activated by opening the HTML mail in lynx or w3m but in many cases, using the confirmation requires that the browser runs Javascript so I ended up having to copy the link from the terminal emulator, reformat it (remove line breaks and plus symbols) and paste it into Firefox. :(

My other annoyance is Mailchimp users sending emails that have the correct message in the HTML part but old or previous content in the plain-text part. That’s even worse than those who simply omit the plain-text part.

i don't have a problem with my friends who drink (or anyone else) (as long as they don't get drunk, but that never happened when i was around so i have no practical experience with that).

i have a problem if someone claims that they can't talk to me or they can't enjoy our time together unless they had a drink.

the possible reasons why you can't talk to me makes me uncomfortable.

Alcohol reduces inhibitions. In small amounts it's enough to make a person feel less like they're going to sound stupid if they try to talk to new people.

yes, and that seriously bothers me. do you think that i don't feel uncomfortable talking to new people?

this creates an imbalance. now you are comfortable because you had a drink, and i am still not because i won't or can't. that doesn't work. now you are no longer able to sense my discomfort because you don't sense your own.

if we are both equally uncomfortable we could find a way to deal with that. instead i have to face your uninhibited self and feel like i want to run away.

some people are naturally less inhibited. that can be difficult, but if they are perceptive and considerate it can work out. i fear that alcohol also makes you less perceptive, so that is unlikely to work.
Less of an option if you are writing open-source apps and don’t control how SQLite is deployed on the target. My feed reader Temboz uses FTS5 to good effect but I have to supply fallbacks if it isn’t available.
Handling Dependencies with CMake
Tangentially related, I recently learned of Alec Garrard and his model of the Temple of Jerusalem (through "The Rings of Saturn" by W.G.Sebald). He spent roughly three decades building it: https://craftsmanshipmuseum.com/artisan/alec-garrard.

> Even when the model was already populated with over 4000 handmade clay figures, there was still work to be done. Alec admitted that it would take many thousands more before it would accurately represent the number of people who occupied the temple and surrounding area. Each clay figure is about 1/2” tall, dressed in correct period costume, and took about 3-1/2 hours to make. All told, there were 32 different versions of Jesus that could be found in various parts of the model.
As I said, as a developer working on a software project for your employer, you often inherit dependencies you had no say in. Nor can you force your employer to negotiate a contract with the maintainer.

Don't get me wrong: I'm not arguing the maintainer has any responsibility to fix your issue. I'm only saying that the situation for the developer facing the bug is not always as simple as the article implies. Their choices are constrained by factors outside their control, and they are under pressure to deliver. It's this pressure that explains some of the frustration and anger that can bubble up in open source discussions.

I don't think there's an easy solution, but more empathy on all sides might be a start.
Seeing things like "SportsShoes.com found that faster-than-average mobile visits were 41% more likely to convert than slower-than-average visits." suggests I might be right...
I didn't read the first F the same as you. It could be worded better.

It would be nice if they still made cheap cars with no tech to just go from A to B.

Old school Fiat 500 or Citroen 2cv style
Tradition and ideological homogeneity was much stronger back then.

The world was simply much simpler.

The number of practically available paths forward were less. So why wait? Nowadays people are in an analysis paralysis, so they just wait. (Or try to find better mates, better jobs, better social groups/communities, move around more.)

And due to less homogeneity it's seems harder to find someone. (And probably is harder.)

Also the acceptable mortality was higher. Wars were more common, losing people due to illness was also more common, etc.

And nowadays we have endless alternatives to getting married. Single life is very enjoyable. (see Netflix et al :))
Japan is probably the second rich country with the lowest fertility rate after Korea.

Does it support annotating numpy arrays with their dimensions yet? Last time I checked I was incredibly surprised the status quo was basically all numpy arrays are np.ndarray.
If it's a one off task then doing a bodge may get the manager the result they want quickest. However, managers don't want just the one task completing quickly they want a series of task to consistently be completed quickly. So let's take this into account and compare Programmer A (who regularly bodges things to get them out the door as quickly as possible) to Programmer B (who takes a bit of extra time on each task to keep the codebase maintainable)

As time goes on those bodges Programmer A is making will accumulate in the code and make it harder and harder to make changes and each new task takes longer to complete.

Programmer B on the other hand will find the code in a good state that's easy to change so each will be able to deliver tasks at a steady maintainable rate.

Of course if Programmer A is going to make a couple of changes and then leave the project there's no incentive for them to do anything other than bodges, that why we have things like code reviews so that those programmers who are going to be on a project long term can spot the bodges before they get into the live codebase.

yes. Brave is functionally sort of like a mafia protection racket. They just insert themselves between you and whatever you're browsing, block everyone else's ads, and insert their own. except their ads are supposedly the good ones, and they cut you in on it by giving you some of their made up token currency
It will vary... there's times I've created the PR myself, but cannot wait for the patch to make it in... so I'll reference my fork to start with, then go back and re-reference to upstream and delete my downstream once it's accepted.

I usually discover existing forks when looking for a bug/issue fix and see there's already a PR, that may have been sitting for a while, or rejected but the issue remains. Sometimes that means creating my own fork of the downstream for ongoing use.

YMMV, I usually do try to update the README to indicate it's a fork for personal use until upstream approves/integrates.
We have the best or second best roads in the world (which is very noticeable when you drive into neighboring countries). Additionally we have extremely low congestion even at rush hour.

Road tax depends heavily on the vehicle. I think we pay ~€1000 a year, ~€83 a month, for our Hyundai ix35.
I have noticed that modern sedans are MASSIVE. Every time I have the displeasure of renting a car they force upon me a full-size sedan (they seem to never have 'compact' vehicles available), and the cars are gigantic, feel heavy, visibility is terrible because the windows have been made smaller and smaller and the A-pillars larger and larger in a competition for higher safety ratings. When I visit Europe I'm jealous of how much smaller the sedans are- everything is just a little more narrow, a little thinner, and yes, have a manual transmission. The American market seems to put people into cars that look and drive like military tanks.
My partner and I have been together 15 years. We have always had separate finances and split expenses evenly. We always lived well below our means and never spend more on housing than the person with the lower salary could afford. We have gone back and forth a few times who was making more, anywhere from 2x to one person not having a job for awhile.

We are free to spend our own money as we see fit. For any shared purchase, we split the cost, unless it was a gift or talked over doing an uneven split beforehand (maybe if the thing in question was outside the budget of one person and the other person offered to make up the difference). Maybe once a year we run through our bank statements and reconcile big purchases that we owe each other money for.

We’ve talked about a joint account for expenses, but just never got around to it. Combining finances sounds absolutely weird and patriarchal to both of us. Like why on earth would I want his money!?

I think it works for us because we are both frugal, would never get into any debt or financial trouble, have good family safety nets and communicate well. We both view staying independently financially healthy as part of our responsibility to each other, just as we have a responsibility to stay fit or take care of our health.
Or like Honda Jazz/Fit 2000-2006. They achieved perfection for a A to B car there.
But then it’s too bad right? Why should the maintainers care?
North Italy has enough ice and snow driving, including compulsory wheel chains, at least while we keep having European Winters.
Daniel Stenberg, the lead maintainer of cURL, has some interesting tweets about this topic. In fact several of the toxic comments he posts are from people who seem to lack a basic understanding of what the project even provides.

Ok but how about we just plan a simple roadmap and have funding goals for each stage of the roadmap?

In that case the only challenge would be holding funds in escrow for unstarted milestones so that you must finish one milestone before getting funding for the next milestone.

Edit: It already exists: LFX Crowdfunding.
I think Carmack has been able to consistently work these extended hours his entire career because he's always had the chance to work on really interesting problems that excite him. I can also work long hours for extended periods of time when that's the case. The burnout for me comes in when the work feels pointless, and I have no autonomy. That's when I can barely even put 8 hours in without my entire body and mind shutting down.
When animals are stressed, they stop breeding. So why we are surprised to see exact the same behavior on ourselves?
Many projects aren't pure library deps. If you need to fork a CLI tool for instance it tends to be a lot more involved. Even pure library deps can be a pain depending on the version manager you're using. Also, I often need to use a temporary fork even if I'll get it merged later, because the fix blocks something I'm currently working on.

Forking, when there is good tooling, is really nice. I wish tooling and practices were more mature. It's often a lot more hassle than ideal.
Kind of depends... I'm listening to so many github repos that I often don't pay enough attention to the notices or even keep up regularly... if it's important/urgent, I'd almost preferred that they reach out via side channel. It's a rare case for me at least.

I know it can be annoying if there's too much of it, or there's too many vectors or if you or the repo are popular. I'm not.
Generating videos and 3D models is _much_ more difficult than images. You can’t just train off videos from the internet in the same way, because they don’t have sufficient text labels to understand them like CLIP does.
Interesting. Wondered why results are displayed there as they are; the ones at the top look bad for Vivaldi, for example. Speaking of which Proton don't include Vivaldi. Perhaps as they have their own email client built right into their browser. Nope, I don't work for Vivaldi. It's one of several that I use.
The fall of datacenter software
Here's a modest proposal. Your employer can no longer pay you, but they have a big code base that you wrote. You are now obligated to maintain that code for free. Think it through. How else can your employer get what they need?

You might say that they should pay consulting rates, or that you're busy with your new job. But how is that your former employer's problem? They used your code in good faith, they ran out of money, and they were forced to lay you off. None of this is under their control.

> Housing prices are 9x salary

Monthly mortgage payments are the same though. (Lower interest rates, etc.)

Also building costs gone up. (The plague of single family homes, stricter building codes, higher quality requirements from buyers, while buildings are still produced using the old labor intensive methods.) And due to fucked up zoning building low-cost housing is just not happening :/

So folks are basically forced to buy expensive houses.
Maybe, or maybe the new equipment is much more efficient than the one it's replacing. It sounds true, but you can't really tell if it is or not, and really my annoyance is in saying it costs any estimated amount of energy, or carbon, to transfer 1GB of data. It does not, the transfer itself is basically cost-less. What costs money is running the infrastructure that makes it possible, and that's much harder to measure.
