While looking into new engines recently I bailed on Unreal because all the docs and tutorials push towards Blueprint. I'd happily use C++ over Blueprint but everything is pushing Blueprint hard to the point I just moved on. Been looking at Godot lately and I really like it and if I need something more than GDScript provides there are bindings to GDNative. I think for some people Visual scripting is probably nice but for me it's an inscrutable mess of flow charts that's way more difficult to use, debug, build understanding of quickly, etc.
Bitwarden’s indexes are instantaneous for me.

What use cases are knocking it over for you?
Except the whole point of crypto is not to be reliant on a third party company who has the power to pull the carpet from under your feet!

If you don't care about that last point, why not use VISA for transactions or Robinhood for financial stuff? (after all, they always act in compliance with their “long in advance” accepted ToS …).

If you admit that Ethereum is not a decentralized system but a company that can change things on their own terms, then we in fact agree.
This plane does not want to be found.

My theory is the flight was remotely hacked as a proof of concept attack and taken down. A major nation could have done so to prove the attack or prove a point, perhaps to an adversary.

Anyway I have no evidence of this it’s just speculation. RIP to the souls onboard.
PinePhone's hardware is almost at the edge of being usable in 2022, I can agree with that. It's not as bad as Openmoko Neo Freerunner was (thanks Glamo), but it's definitely noticeable. However, with PinePhone Pro (once it matures) and Librem 5 I don't think I'll have to start to worry about hardware not being able to reasonably run sensible software for at least a few years still. Those aren't even close to current flagships of course, but are performant enough to not long for a faster device.
There's a business model in there though: the algorithms need well tagged poses and images, and one of the biggest issues with sex work is that it is used to attack people in other areas of their lives (even in a perfect society for this, the desire not to be directly personally associated as a part of your identity would probably still exist).

If you can retain paying customers, and then pay performers for a supply of source material (which won't, unaltered, ever end up in customer hands) then there's a new business model somewhere in there.
> democrats rarely vote for actual regulation, they just promise it to you and then make excuses.

I am making the point that there is no political coalition, Democrat or not, that wants lower home prices (from where they are right now).

And I disagree with that point anyway - see abortion rights post Roe. The blue/red state policy differences are stark.
"I'm gonna decompile your kernal!"
What library is this I was looking for a good cache to store network results quite recently?
There's obviously a lot of legacy Ada out there, but would you say it's 'typical' for new code being written? I don't have that sense. There's probably more MISRA C/++ code floating around at this point. I have no idea how compliant SX is, but I've heard mentions of Power of 10 rules and JPL standards. For what it's worth, their track record doesn't seem concerning nowadays.
I've never seen a Camry roll coal on a bicyclist but I've seen it half a dozen times by pickup truck drivers
Now if they'd just make a browser for Android that was at all usable. The one they have can't do translation, so it's completely useless for me unless I stick to English-language sites.

To add to this: there's a ton of great extensions for the desktop version of FF, but they don't work on the mobile version because they intentionally made it incompatible. Did Mozilla learn nothing from Microsoft's attempts at mobile phones?
Composition based approaches also apply particularly well to shaders, since their main drawback being lack of control flow is not a big issue for shaders.
Copenhagen’s dream of being carbon neutral by 2025 goes up in smoke
Or just train locals.
Worked... thanks a bunch.
Does anyone know if it's safe to go back to cname now or should I leave till the A record till the morning? Would prefer to get some sleep.
Presumably when IPv6 was being rolled out the intent was to actually move to IPv6 instead of trying to keep IPv4 on life support indefinitely...
Where did you get the training images from and about how many did you have? I'm looking to do a NSFW AI image generator as well but finding the training data has been something I've yet to nail down a plan for
React has its roots in StandardML and it's showing them here. Java, C# (and ma y other languages) barely scrape the surface of what you can do with a type system.

Now there's definitely a question of when you start hitting diminishing returns but you can definitely do so much with and extract confidence from very strongly typed languages.
These two might get along well: https://pornpen.ai/view/7Ls0XZkZ1k5buFv1jHrL
Modern store-bought bread has so many preservatives that you don't need a breadbox. I wonder if the brief fad of people taking up baking during COVID-19 lockdowns will/has cause(d) an increase in breadbox sales.
> but surely you can't just... use stock photos without paying for the license?

They aren't hosting the infringing content. Training on the data is probably covered under fair use. Generations are of _learned_ representations of the dataset, not the dataset itself. This makes it closer to outputting original works (probably owned by the person who used the model).

The players involved here are known for being litigious, however. I wouldn't be surprised if OpenAI did in fact pay some hefty fee upfront to get full permission to use these images.
"How can you look at horrible evil companies literally destroying the environment around us just because it makes them more money and say there's no alternative?"

I guess for me I just don't understand how nationalising a given company makes it stop emitting carbon.
Yes, but that's an outlier ruling that was widely criticized.
Unless that input is newly created, why would using existing data (let's say, b the police, who collected it from various criminals in the past) be any more harmful than not using it?
One thing which fascinates me about China's government are the words they will use to describe things. Recently they had some sort of crackdown on videogames and the government used the words "spiritual opium" in terms of how they say it affects the youth.

I can't imagine my government using the word 'spiritual' like that and it left me wondering if this was a mistranslation or the CCP is actually concerned about citizens spiritual welfare?

I see 'tragically ugly' as another example. North Korea communicates this way too and I wonder if they're just finding the coolest synonyms in a thesaurus or this is how they actually communicate to their citizens.
They have no submissions and this is their only comment.
I thought they use Cepstrum followed by machine learning.
It is true as they say that drug economy and Porn industry are at the forefront of adopting new tech.

I couldn't imagine this in my dream that this can be one of the usecase.

There's definitely some huge threat to the porn industry and its workers at the same time we can see that people may just misuse this to damage the image of an existing lady.

As they say if it takes minutes to generate image , how long before it becomes a video of 1 or 2 min.
Really? I feel like it's one of the most interesting but worst designed. It has some random cute design in it (like the ornate characters at the start of articles.. well I remember it having that, but don't see it now on my phone), but is basically unnavigable.
Given some of the more interesting body horror I've randomly encountered so far, that might be enough to put some people off their fetish, at least temporarily. At least for those who don't have that as their fetish.

It's an interesting idea and site though. If they can keep the surprises to minimum, I could see it doing well, if it's not trivial to make you own.
hmmm...

okay, that's enough nightmare fuel for now
"Inform 7 Programmer's Manual" by Ron Newcomb explains Inform 7 from the point-of-view of someone who knows how to program in other languages.

Version as of August 15, 2011: http://www.plover.net/~pscion/Inform%207%20for%20Programmers...

An older 2009 version (if PDF is a problem): http://www.plover.net/~pscion/inform7.html
I had the Sublogic version on the TRS-80. 127x80 monochrome!

Crazy thing is that it was pretty involving even then.
This is so cool. The view is also almost like Canva. Impressive so far.
Making the System Setting Cube Farm Livable
Another human analogy could be: you take a photo from every art show and museum, and use those for reference as you paint.
People need to seriously grapple with the copyright implications. I don't know if (and don't imagine) porn producers are okay with people using their product which is supposed to lead to paid memberships (on of and the like) being used like this.
I’ve been digging through Google translate (Hebrew to English) results from transcripts of Holocaust survivor testimonies, mostly looking to see if there’s any useful information for my writing project (I started with 17 candidate testimonies, removed 7 without transcripts and the last ten gave me just a couple kind of useful details, but nowhere near the wealth I’d hoped for when I started out but I’m glad I hadn’t spent a hundred hours trying to follow the original Hebrew or even scan the transcripts in Hebrew).

There were some fairly comical mistranslations in the GT output. My favorite was where GT had the interviewer at one point say to the survivor, “What’s wrong with you?” which I imagined the interviewer saying in a disgusted tone. There was also another point where GT said the interviewer asked the survivor, “How do you say shit?”

On the other hand, the results I’ve seen for Western European languages (German, French, Spanish) have been pretty amazing. Even Polish, while not perfect, came out pretty intelligible from GT.
But...why isn't this game better served by just throwing all the data in $DATABASE? This is what I don't understand about blockchain games, the idea of having to buy a currency to play a game is not new, and the blockchain doesn't seem to add anything at all.
> It doesn't have to be like this, but it is also not 'early days' anymore and we have given this idea lots of time to gain any meaningful traction and it's very clear that there is almost no interest from the wider industry.

I really don't think we did. The last serious effort that didn't rely on Android was Maemo/MeeGo (which wasn't even fully FLOSS), and before that Openmoko. Maaaaybe you could count Tizen too, although it was a project with different enough focus that I'm not really sure about that. I have used Nokia N900 up until I was able to replace it with Librem 5, because there was simply no alternative I considered viable. We have spent many years with no reasonable hardware platform for mobile GNU/Linux efforts and even projects like Plasma Mobile and Ubuntu Touch had to be based on Android stack until Librem 5 and PinePhone appeared on the stage.

Time to give this idea some meaningful traction has just started in the last years, and the fact that this time it actually gets serious backing from major DEs (GNOME, Plasma) and distros (Debian, Fedora, Manjaro, ...) makes it as viable as it never was before. There's a lot of cross-pollination happening these days, which back in the Openmoko days was mostly limited to tech that never ended up being used outside of these communities (such as FSO). The best we got back then was getting SHR stack partially packaged in Debian, while today, whole GNOME and KDE carry this stuff forward (things like libadwaita and Kirigami are major building blocks of desktop apps too these days).
Falsehoods programmers Considered harmful
How do visual scripting systems like Unreal Blueprints handle version control and merging of changes from multiple people?
> Americans are driving bigger and bigger vehicles..

vehicles have gone up in size globally. this might be driven primarily by the whims and desires of the US market, but it's by no means isolated to the United States.
"Oven, the company behind Bun, has raised $7m in funding"

"Oven will provide incredibly fast serverless hosting & continuous integration for backend & frontend JavaScript apps"

Isn't trying to dethrone node.js (by making Bun better and more popular) something worth pursuing on its own, or there is no money in that?
Scott Adams has claimed a great variety of things over time. A lot of those claims don't hold up well under scrutiny, so I'm a bit skeptical of this one. Especially since I'm one of those people who think Dilbert stopped being funny a long time ago.
Israel Will Ban Cash Payments over $4,400
To me, this seems to be taking an unrsalistic definition of "collaborate" and then being surprised that nobody meets it.

Is there any other venue where the author's definition of "collaborate" rings true? If your definition of collaborate is everyone works equally on everything as if by committee - no large project works that way. Neither do most small projects.
Land in desirable areas seems to me to be a much more scarce resource than the inputs and labor that go into a vehicle, especially if you add time - aka decades to make such things cheaper. Not sure how time and technology can do the same for land ownership.
It doesn't matter. I could put a Getty watermark on anything. Getty would have to show that a generated image was at least in part the same as their image.
Yes, I concede that. Communist agitators broke the ugly system and smashed it on the floor, the pieces have yet to be picked up.
Oh boy do I have the book for you then…

Why We Sleep by Dr. Matthew Walker is both the best book on the subject by the eminent researcher in the field, but also an extremely good read.
This effect also applies to motorcycle riders who are often "seen but ignored".
This is cool. What do you plan to do with it? Do you plan to commercialize it, show for a college project, augment your resume?

Best of luck and good wishes.

I like it and would tinker with it personally for fun and perhaps profit. However, I will stick to Canva for my team for various reasons.
You've got to watch out for the Social Media Outrage Machine. It's alive and well in every country.
Discharge the less ill people, free up a bed for the more ill ones.

It's all about throughput. You're only looking at the front while the problem is in the back.
They are machines made of humans. Their point is about AGI working fully without human intervention. Of course, even pen and paper makes you more intelligent than you without.
And then sells your preferences to the highest bidder. A bit like the Westworld HBO series.

What about making the power button recessed like on Sony Xperias? If you're really worried about camera ergonomics, you can even add a dedicated shutter button. The "focus on half press" feature might be overkill for the iPhone camera system though.
"To collaborate on something is to work together with others towards a common goal."

Yes, but open source is a power-house of an opportunity to collaborate with 'no common goals'.

If you make really good 'indexing software' - well, someone else can make medical related AI much better.

Etc..
It doesn't seem like they're going far from the Deno playbook.

If people wanted to work on this, I genuinely believe that could be huge.
They’re working on changing that, too.
Offtopic: I have seen quite a few similar documentation design such as this website. What is powering this? Thanks.
Hot dog ⇔ Not hot dog
Yes, there is literally no money in doing that by itself. I don't blame the developers for doing what's needed to fund the project.
Did you look more closely at the results of this generator? The generated images are really not suitable for the same purposes as the content you can find behind those paid memberships.
Somewhat. He does note when what's offered is significantly above or below the status quo of the year he's working through. I think what he trys to do is make sure it's viewed in the context of how it was originally received and played.

Sometimes things get points or credit for originality or doing something well or first or before common, but also some titles will get criticized for omitting something to it's detriment which was pretty standard by that time.
Isn't that what they're doing? Providing a monetizable system around open source software. It's the Vercel/Next.js model
That’s not what the US government says: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/immigration/h1b and https://www.cbp.gov/travel/international-visitors/visa-waive...

I have observed that this misunderstanding is widespread, for what it’s worth. Dual intent merely means intending to immigrate isn’t a disqualification, but that still requires getting some sort of additional immigrant visa.

I assumed it was to make it easier to identify the right battery packs.
Religion, politics; really anything people get fanatical or self-righteous about. I do wish I had the background and vocabulary to express the commonality in the language and ideas from these camps, but it's not limited to them. Also, the reply above goes a tad deeper.
Is there a DSM-5 condition for outsourcing all your rational facilities to the DSM-5?
Yes, the US had its hand in Argentina as well - they supported the violent military junta that saw Peron overthrown and leftist journalists and activists murdered by the thousands during the Dirty War. When I was studying there, the family I stayed with had relatives who had been abducted and "disappeared," which was such a widespread phenomenon under the right wing government that they have a name: "Los Desaparecidos". Here's a Wikipedia article about how the CIA contributed: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Condor#Argentina

Also, your article is unfortunately paywalled, but an op-ed from someone at the WSJ isn't going to change my mind.
Congrats to Jarred! Bun has blown me away in terms of performance. Often (in other projects) performance claims out of nowhere are simply cherry-picked but I’ve found bun repeatedly impressing me with both speed and elegance.

What doesn’t get mentioned enough is just how friggin ergonomic bun is. Install it and you’ll see what I mean immediately. Play with any API in the “bun:” namespace and it’s just a breath of fresh air.
It's not open-source or really polished for consumption. I did get permission to open-source it, but unfortunately didn't have the time to improve it to the point where it would be broadly useful.

In fact, now that https://tanstack.com/query/v4/docs/plugins/persistQueryClien... appears to be stable I'm thinking it might even be good to migrate to this (though it appears to require multiple queryclients if you want different cache parameters)
So I certainly understand some of the frustration around churn, and I get that on hardware selected to run BSD, this probably doesn't matter nearly as much

But...

This article describes (at least in my opinion) an unusable and unstable machine.

Basic HDMI out and Ethernet aren't "optional" on machines I run. Frankly - I'd rather lose wifi/bluetooth than HDMI and Ethernet (not that bluetooth is working here either...).

So I guess my point is that

>that users of computers really don't want or need

seems very much like a personal opinion. I not only want churn if it's bringing online more hardware support - I find the lack of support here completely unsuited to my needs.

If this is what you mean by "clean"... then It feels a bit like keeping a boardgame in the shrink wrap - rather than getting it out, bending a few cards, and having a good time. At least to me (fully admit this is also just an opinion).
A direct hit is likely, but even worse is a higher possibility of getting knocked under the vehicle and towards the wheels.
In my prior job, I worked at a company that had a large monorepo with thousands of engineers contributing to it every week. I truly felt like I was part of a mass collaboration of people that were collectively defining what our product should be like and how it should operate.
I wonder if insurance rates have been adjusted to reflect this. I would assume that being "at fault" for a crash with a fatality would result in a hefty insurance payout....

This is likely user error when reinstalling the wheel.

QR axles use a cam lever to apply high clamping force to hold the wheel in place.

It's not unheard of for inexperienced users to just turn the lever tight without using the cam which doesn't apply enough clamping force causing the wheel to come loose.
Have you tried thinking about things from a cost/benefit perspective? It's still somewhat arbitrary because you only have a rough idea of your utility function and you aren't going to run all the numbers, but it's a good framework (it also totally justifies progressive taxation because network effects of public goods and services are likely much higher if you have higher income)
Ooh, intrigued, my interest in graphic literature awakened. TY.

I kind of wonder if it would be worth making an ipv7 that is less ambitious than ipv6, and focuses on having an easier upgrade path from ipv4. But then we would have three competing standards...

The practical argument is that whatever dark-market ended up trading models which produce CP material would likely end up being spiked with actual CP input data to try and improve "realism".

At which point the moral dimension clarifies: creating an incentive to abuse children to create better models for simulating child abuse is the exact same reason posession of CP is illegal to start with. And since it won't be possible to prove any particular model without perfect providence wasn't produced this way, their use will just be illegal.

This is, realistically, also the problem with just pornography generating models in general, and all of these models in total: if there's illegal data in the input set, what does that mean?

I suspect the next hurdle with them is going to be license compliance-enabled training - models which can prove any given output has at most a certain type of license and providence on input data.
I'm replying to myself here - might be a bit gauche, but I read all the replies carefully and most were quite reasoned and thought provoking. Thank you! Hacker News for the win.
