> The goal is to profit off of free human labor after all.

this is too inflammatory in my opinion.

- some works are in public domain

- tech companies have profited from creators for a long time. I'm sure some arrangement could be made for profit sharing for artists who care about money, but it's too early for that (no profits, I'm sure most companies are losing money on AI art)

- some artists care about art or fame more than money. Their art will not be devalued by AI, if anything, constant usage of their names in prompts is going to make them massively popular and direct people to source material or merch, which they may buy.

- some artists are dead and don't care anymore. Their "estate" vulnerable to takeovers by "long lost but recently found" relatives, who don't care about art itself, only about money. Many such stories.

One example, albeit not in paintings but in music is Jimi Hendrix Estate. They used to do copyright strikes on YouTube in order to remove fan-made compilations of rare material (cleaned up sound of live concerts, multiple sources mixed into one etc.), without intentions to ever release an alternative.
Nope. As far as I know, they've done everything with almost all internal talent.
The word “gender” comes from a Latin root involving “birth” and shows up in English in such verbs as “engender” which literally means “to beget offspring” (and idiomatically means “to cause”).

If you were person speaking English before about 2000 or so, maybe a bit later, and you were neither a gender studies researcher or in touch with that discipline directly, the words would literally both mean the same thing and basically it’d be a question of which the scientific field in question used more.
The last bit of the second paragraph would of been a fine comment on its own without the snark.

That aside; this is an American website discussing an article about an American company having a ruling made against them by an American organization based on actions they took in America. I don't think the rest of the world is relevant to this discussion, and I don't think you do either.
Ask HN: Where to host for a fully managed OS?
I’m looking for a web host. I don’t want to have to deal with OS updates, log rotation, web server / Lets Encrypt setup, etc.

You typically get all of this on a Shared web server plan.

But I need more resources and typically dedicated servers from web hosting company’s are unmanaged.

Does anyone have a recommendations?
>Every ISP could also block these sites...

Why?
You realize it was the Americans under Yeltsin who basically destroyed Russian economy right ? I'm fairly sure Russian children weren't prostituting themself because the US "missed their mark" and were led astray by "corrupt Asiatics" (not being facile here; this is standard argument put out by Western "intellectuals" today - which says a lot about the deep hate for Asia.).

I imagine Russians slyly and sarcastically saying, to the typically non-ironically self-righteous Westerner, "oh the Americans did plenty; plenty indeed; we really wish they didn't".

Much of the global south holds much the same opinion IMO. Frankly, I'm shocked at the state of disconnect in the West. The kind of petulant idiocy displayed by the usual eminences when the majority of the world did not play along - much like they didn't play along when the US-West attacked god-knows how many countries now - was less suitable even of a pouty teenager.
I don’t think it was done for performance, hooks just compose much better than class components. Definitely a trade off in terms of blank-slate intuition, but it unlocked a lot of things in the realm of reusability.

Same. Some good arguments are made about decentralization and the ideals for efficiency aren't bad, surely the author is a smart person. I remember singing "God keep our land glorious and free." as a little kid. Nowadays I feel like I'd need to add an asterisk at the end of that line, that points to a note in the margin, that says "To the extent it is, or could ever be".
Okay, maybe it's not as close as I remember it!

PIC is designed to be embedded inside of TROFF, so it's... not pretty, to say the least. It does have the -> arrow thing, and the label: value syntax, though. For as hideous as it is, it's surprisingly easy to use.

Odd phrasing, because these still remain among your favorite things. I don't really care for cruise ships, and though I don't really mind mouthy uberrich people, they are definitely not among my favorite things.
It’s done in the bank app using the account number and sort code. I understand name is now checked to prevent accidentally sending the money to the wrong account, because of a typo for example.

There are a handful of TV series canceled too soon that of love to see new episodes of. There are tremendous issues of consent involved, but it’s a nice dream to have.

Probably our entire system here in the US is a joke. I mean Crypto has also been doing immediate transfers for how long now? But we have to wait 3 - 5 business days (sometimes longer) for money to transfer between banks here in the US in... what year is it... 2022?????!!! lol
Just after reading this article I realised I haven’t seen a show on Netflix in weeks…

There’s too much choice and their recommendation algo seems quite off. I hope they find a wag to focus on the popular shows and invest in them!
There might not be servers going idle. Google has plenty of batch jobs they can run in lower-traffic times, both internal and external.

And if it does go idle, it saves energy, which costs money. At scale, compute isn't free.
What huge delays are you running into on the blockchain? I never wait more than a minute or two... occasionally with a bridge maybe.
Why not just add a shortcut to search for the related images in these artist count table etc.?

Also, a UI issue: the sorting arrow feels wrong:

https://i.imgur.com/uyUXAXy.png

The norm is that when the arrow is pointing down, the data are currently sorting descendingly (I'm aware you can interpret it as "what will happen if you click it", but the norm is to show what currently is using.)
Any chance this can be iterated on and replace credit cards?
A business wants to pay (at least) what something costs, because 1. they’re making money themselves from the result, and 2. they don’t want the thing they depend on to stop being offered. You’re not a free rider per se if you want a cost-plus pricing model but it’s just not on offer. (In that case, it’s instead the provider’s fault for not capturing your value surplus.)l similar to how, in scalping, it’s the original seller’s fault for not charging what the market will bear.)

I don't know whose, if anyone's, explanation, I believe. The phenomenon (of cultural stagnation) is real, though.

This Gucci 'homage' to Stanley Kubrick struck me as an excellent example of the problem: https://youtu.be/pk1oThKRxdo

It's not just that it cribs from the past, but the cynicism: an ad that inserts some giddy fashion model into Clockwork Orange, and saps the scene of its irony. Kubrick pulled that film from the UK market after release for fear it had inspired a rape and a murder. An 'homage' doesn't turn a cautionary tale into an aspirational commercial.

I feel like this is the key point that adherents of modern development practices need to address. We've been sold a lot of stuff on the basis that it would drastically improve the user experience - but a lot of people, myself included, feel that UX actually declined in the past two decades.
I wonder when they will do an in-depth expose of the culture of brutality and cheating that the Spartans had.

One of the points of having such a rigorous, grueling training program, is that when stuff hits the fan on a mission, they can look back and say, "hey, this is bad, but Hell Week was worse, and we all made it through that."

Basically, every elite military unit in history has had a very brutal/dangerous entry.
It will replace debit cards and probably have a gateway at POS to existing bank networks. Not sure how quickly that will roll out, hopefully will not require brand new terminals across the country.

It will replace the use case of using credit cards to pay immediately, but not the carrying of high interest debt case.

Sex is biological and social.

Gender is about grammar and pronouns. It is a lot more important in other languages than English, and often has nothing to do with sex. There are languages where the genders are "alive" and "dead", or "adult" and "child or animal".

I'm not sure that scripting is easier.

For automation, xdotool is pretty good. xprop and wmctrl are not so user friendly though.

As for keyboard remapping, sxhkd is great, but finding what keys are called requires xev or something like it. xmodmap is not easy for beginners either.

At the very least you have to know what to look for. I'm not an advocate of AHK, but having all those options in the same place would be good.

Just don't expect miracles. Many chronic diseases are poorly understood and don't have effective treatments. Wishful thinking from a support group doesn't change that, and all the website researc in the world won't change that either.

The colors are awful, but here is the projected coverage map for maritime use:

https://api.starlink.com/public-files/maritime-coverage-map....

Near-shore coverage is there because of the nearby ground stations, yes. But per that map they expect to be covering two large bands of open ocean later this year, and the rest next year. Satellite-to-satellite communication will allow users to make use of it without nearby ground stations via multiple in-space hops.

Given that this press release has them deploying Starlink in their cruise ship fleet at the end of Q1 2023, that fits the above map's projections. So Starlink already has a major customer lined up for their upcoming service.
I think you have this upside down.

The oligarchs didn't swoop in and ruin everything. The Russian government did not want their resources and industry controlled by foreign share holders, so they were dead set on privatizing the economy by selling to Russians only.

With this constraint, the handful of Russians who were able to raise capital in such a short time, without foreign counter bids, got the privatized businesses far below market prices as a result. This is what made them billionaires, and turned them into the oligarchs.

You'd think so but Google has essentially a monopoly depending how you look at it and some countries have stricter rules than others.
I think much more likely, at least this side of the singularity, what we'll have is infinite dreck. And for some people, that will be enough.

It's extremely hard to make good content. Teams of extremely skilled, well-paid people, even ones who have succeeded before, fail regularly. And that's with complicated filtering mechanisms and review cycles to limit who has access and keep the worst of it from getting out.

But not everybody needs everything to be actually good. My partner will sometimes unwind on a Friday by watching bad action movies; the bad ones are in some ways better, as they require less work to understand and are amusing in their own way. Or there's a mobile game I play when I want to not think, where you have to conquer a graph of nodes. The levels are clearly auto-generated, and it's fine.

I think that kind of serviceable junk is where we might see AI get to in a couple of decades, made for an audience that will get a weed gummy and a six pack and ask for a "sci-fi action adventure with lots of explosions" and get something with a half-assed plot, forgettable stereotypical characters and visuals that don't totally make sense, but that's fine. You won't learn anything, you won't be particularly moved, and you won't ever watch it again, but it will be a perfectly cromulent distraction between clocking out and going to bed.

Great director, not a great person. He hates everyone and everything. I have never heard him say anything positive.
The one thing I like about Joe Rogan is he doesn't really promote the show that much, so the show is easy to avoid if you don't like it anymore. I used to listen to the podcast very early on, but it got somewhat boring to me, so I stopped listening to it unless there's a guest that interests me.

It is somewhat interesting how he's made it so long with no major scandals. There was the covid stuff, but it was pretty tame to me compared with even run of the mill Twitter drama. I get the sense that he's very good at staying out of situations that are sketchy.
> D2 will be open source and usable outside of Terrastruct. Terrastruct will remain the best interface to D2, with bidirectional updates from GUI

Any honest open source project would not say such a thing categorically, and would welcome and support community improvements that take it to an even higher level.

But instead it sounds like you will rig the game, with "open source" just meaning "let's get people to work on our proprietary product for free, and we can fly the banner of open source while we're at it!".
Credit cards are loans and this system is about making payments.

The closest thing would be a debit payment network (eg the card swiper has funds to pay immediately and is not relying on a 3rd party extending credit to them to complete the transaction).
>Computation should be free (or nearly free) if there's idle capacity

I guess nothing stops you from buying infra and offering it for "free (or nearly free)".
> The Fed’s new payments system will compete with privately-held The Clearing House, which was launched by a consortium of large banks in 2017. It processed 41.2 million transactions valued at about US$18 billion in the second quarter.

For someone like me who only uses Zelle and Venmo, haven't needed others - I wonder if this will make a difference and also when exactly will this private vs Fed gateway make a difference. Would there be any fees? I know private exchange came first but if Fed solution is free or cheaper, would they need to maintain the alternative?
Uh you might want to re-read that definition.
Highly doubt this will allow chargebacks. Using it for normal purchases will be financially irresponsible unless the seller offers a steep discount.

I'm surprised they didn't try UV-reflective paint. Amazon sells decals [0] that people can stick to their windows to reduce birds flying into them. The Humane Society has other approaches. [1]

UV-reflective paint would hopefully be visible to birds and not to people so a windmill wouldn't be any more distracting than a current one. I could see where 20 or 30 windmills in sight, each with one black blade, might be visually distracting.

> This is fast enough for small repositories, but as the repository increases in size the overhead of parsing these plain-text files to get the graph relationships becomes too expensive. Even the fact that we need a binary search to locate the object within the packfile begins to add up.

From my experience and measurements as the author of `gitoxide` both the parsing of commits as well as the binary search to find the object are negligible costs here. The majority of the time is spent in `zlib` which has to inflate objects and deltas prior to use. This makes me wonder what `zstd` would do to these kinds of workloads.

In any case, the object database decoding performance is the bottleneck when traversing commits, and one can expect to get about 120000 commits per second on the linux kernel pack on a modern CPU core like M1 with `gitoxide`s implementation.

Besides that, I find the explanation of the commit-graph file interesting and how it relates to commit-graph queries. There is so much to learn, and so much still to implement :).
