I’d say that that these two opposites (regulation vs. freedom to just create) will always exist side by side.

We tend to argue for one or the other and hope that a clean ideology will emerge from it because it makes our understanding of life so much simpler.

But if I continue my way of argumentation, I’d say this ‘pulling of opposites’ is a built-in feature of our existence. The really smart outcomes emerge out of the tension that exist between these opposing ‘forces’.

In the case of my evolution example, the two opposing forces are life on the one hand, and death (or the non-living environment), on the other.

Very abstract, I know. But this world view has been expressed by at least one thinker who formulated this ‘natural law’ if you might call it that: Henno Martin in this book (I couldn’t find an English translation): https://www.amazon.com/Menschheit-auf-dem-Pr%C3%BCfstand-Men...
The alternative would be a proper electron app.

MS can do it. Look at VS Code.

It's strange how they make some of the very best electron apps and also some of the worst (teams sucks on windows and Mac too and I don't see how their new edge-electron will fix that because it's also just a rebadged chrome just like electron)

The problem with teams isn't electron. It's the project management that prioritizes new features over making the existing ones work smoothly. The web version won't solve this as it's simply the same thing.
I don't see how Reddit banning a technology will cut down on CSAM. Aren't they already doing something about CSAM that appears on their site, real or generated? Besides, one would hope that Google and others building these models aren't including CSAM sites to even have the required material for generating such images.

There are so many red herrings in this argument. The technology is interesting and potentially useful. You are basically saying that Reddit is okay with CSAM as long as it is computer generated. But they aren't, and they do handle it when they find it on their site, regardless of how it was created. Technology is not the problem. Behavior is.

Should they ban pics taken from all digital cameras since they also can be used to post CSAM and whatever other bugaboo one could add to the list, meanwhile already handled through subreddit moderation? No, of course not. Because the technology isn't the problem. I've already said it: Behavior is. And Reddit already controls for illegal behavior.
Libraries introduce breaking changes, too. I’ve been bit by silent default changes in Pandas, for example. To me that’s kind of striking because I also wouldn’t consider myself a major user of the library.
Just fyi: if you’re viewing the PDF in Safari on your iPad, you can search by typing into Safari’s Location Bar and then choosing “Find ‘xyz’” from the popup that appears.
The guy behind it is an ex hedge fund manager. Using private funds he's built a massive fleet of A1000s at AWS.

So it's an enormous amount of compute created from private funds that he considers to be "for humanity". Currently, he funds it and is also the "GPU overlord", he exclusively decides which applications gets to use it.

His plan, or at least his claim, is to transform this situation in it being more diversely funded (institutions, businesses, even the UN) and for access to be decided by committee with main criteria it being useful for humanity.

Let's see if he sticks to his word, but I find it inspirational. AI was on a trajectory to be solely in the hands of a hand full of ultra rich companies that can afford to train and run it, and us poor mortals being at the whims of gatekeeper terms.

This guy is on a trajectory to put AI in the hands of the people. Not just for art, for everything. If he fully sees this through, he's destined to be a tech icon.
For some of my colleagues, including me, a 4-days workweek would only make sense if kids got a 4-days school week. I don't think I'm ready to make such a change and reduce my kids' education and socialization by 20%.
One of my issues, as a beginner, with attempting to create a cross platform app with web technologies is: what to go for? Where do you start?

Cordova,
React native,
Etc.

Which ones are best? Dart/flutter seem to offer everything. Though I have heard there are size issues with the resultant program.
There's signed & bundled http requests that, I think, will do much of this job better in the long run. It also helps accelerate the everyday web browsing experience/page load speed. Webpackage.

I really like the idea of being able to take a webpage I've downloaded & hand it to my friend. Retransmissable webapps. If the app is offline capable, theycll have the full experience, then & there.

Memento's earlier & very interesting, great effort. I still think webpackage/web bundles is more likely to gain traction & to manifest into what we want.

Black & Decker bought Stanley in 2010 to become Stanley Black & Decker. They then started becoming an umbrella company, buying many other existing brands such as Craftsman and DeWalt.

It is hard to trust a “brand” any more. From 2017 there is a great summary of brand ownership here: https://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/gear/a28359/mega...

The consolation of design and manufacturing has lead to some quality problems for existing hand and power tool brands.
Yeah, classic Microsoft. Just autostart the thing so it "starts fast" later if/when it is actually needed. Never mind that the corresponding system resources could be used for something better. I uninstalled that POS and just use MSFT Edge for Linux (yes, seriously - it's basically non-Snap Chrome on Kubuntu) to join Teams video conferences.
What is the point of every negative review ever posted if not to cause harm to the business?
Punitive damages aren't communicative unless the cost has a real impact on the defendant. Otherwise they just disappear in the rounding error of a wealthy defendant's expenses.

In this case the defendant, Oberlin College, is a much larger business than the plaintiff, so the punitive damages should be much larger than the actual damages, if punitive damages are justified at all.
Correct. This is how our country works because we are a nation of fools who worship the most wealthy among us.
Abortion bans impact liberals and others who didn't vote for Trump in red states. The majority of the country wants abortion to be legal. Making people suffer for the bad decisions that their states make is...disgusting.
The point of lifetime warranties is it incentivizes the company to make something that will last forever.

"Anonymous yet verifiable" is something that sounds lovely to read but makes zero sense in this context.
Ok. I'll bite. What are the steps?
The word "would" is me describing a kind of person willing to do a thing, not a guaranteed future action. Also, it's kinda weird to hang on a word not in the original quote:

> But we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary even by force; for it may easily turn out that they are not prepared to meet us on the level of rational argument, but begin by denouncing all argument; they may forbid their followers to listen to rational argument, because it is deceptive, and teach them to answer arguments by the use of their fists or pistols.

If someone is preemptively attacking people because of what they "might" do, then they're turning this completely on its head.

Can you tell me more about why you want to live in a world where people are assaulted for pre-crime? Which pre-crime is eligible? If pre-crime is illegal now, would you support yourself getting assaulted for promoting it?

Right, but I'm struggling to see why ARM would care. Legally speaking the license can say whatever the hell it wants and the courts will just execute it. If ARM specifically wants to silo off architectural licensees from one another then so be it.

But... ARM negotiated the cost of their licenses based on the markets the chips would be sold into, with Qualcomm presumably paying a significant premium over Nuvia based on phones being a more established market. There's nothing here that prohibits Qualcomm from building a new chip using exactly the same team they bought, because they already paid buckets of cash for the privilege[0]. The only thing ARM can reasonably enforce is that they do it from scratch, and doing so requires they go and sue their own customers so they can use discovery as their compliance tool.

And suing over something that trivial seems... petty? Like, I could see chip design houses looking to RISC-V or something else if ARM gets a reputation for suing on every M&A.

[0] For the record, this is exactly the same thing Apple did. They bought a chip design firm and a CPU core design firm and had them build ARM cores and SoCs.
You're incorrectly seizing specifically on the word "deepfake". The broader sentence is:

>Additionally, images or video of another person posted for the specific purpose of faking explicit content or soliciting “lookalike” pornography (e.g. “deepfakes” or "bubble porn") is also against the Rule.

So, any lookalike pornography of any kind is against the rules. "Deepfake" is just listed as an example. The method used to generate the lookalike pornography is irrelevant - Photoshop, GIMP, hand-drawing, Stable Diffusion, deepfakes, whatever - it doesn't matter, because the result is still "lookalike pornography", which itself is against the rules. There's more verbiage on that page that continues to make their stance clear:

>Intimate media include a depiction of the person in a state of nudity or engaged in any act of sexual conduct, including depictions that may have been faked.

There is one piece of not so obvious data that is public in Meetup profiles: zip code. The city is listed, but hovering over the link that has the city as link text shows the zip code that member registered with, possibly long ago. This can be handy for deciding meeting locations, etc.

With an electron app, I have access to your file system and can start deleting things. Yes, some operating systems might gate access but it's not standard or granular enough.

While the file system api in browsers requires your approval.
>Certainly not time since many more families are dual income or have only one involved parent

Your time investment is even greater value (to you) since you have less out-of-work time overall.
- Observe: observe bug.

- Orient: check code that maybe involved, check in environment related variable values.

- Decide: decide what you will change in your code to try to fix bug.

- Act : implement fix.

Repeat all steps until you found fix.

Of course you can use different approach to debugging but this one works quite well too.

Poutine is actually a pretty classic example of the bad kind of cultural appropriation. I wouldn't call it benign. Non-Quebecker Canadians are happy to claim Poutine as a "typically Canadian" dish (erasing its connection with Quebec specifically) despite many of them holding Quebec culture in extreme contempt.

The point of my comment, taken in the context of the parent comment, is that time shifting is not automatic nor easy with the move to electric cars. It requires charging at home, overnight, to do. And I'm glad your apartment building has chargers - no apartment buildings have them in my hometown.

> This will happen slowly at first, but exponentially increase.

A vast majority, in my experience, of apartment building owners barely provide basic amenities to their tenants... I'm not as optimistic as you on this growth, especially when locations with fast chargers (i.e. gas station equivalents) will exist.
> I am wary of nuclear's sustainability due to usage of fresh water

I feel like there should be ways to engineer around this especially for reactors near the coast. Use some of the power from the plant to desalinate sea water or engineer to use sea water?

I've always found the OpenSSL tools painful for managing internal self-signed certificates. At work we make fairly heavy use of them, and are starting to make even heavier use. Our use is more than EasyRSA can provide. So I've been working on a new CA tool:

https://github.com/linsomniac/rgca

In a nod to OpenSSL config files, it can take almost all values: from the command line, from the environment, or from one or more config files. It also allows "pre" and "post" commands so you can run a script after generating the cert, for example for server certs I have a "post" script that will copy it into the appropriate location in the Ansible repo, encrypt the key file, and commit it all.

I still need to implement a "renew" which will take an existing cert, update the expiration date, but also allow adding/removing SANs, possibly other features. But I've been using it to generate all our certs recently and it's working great.
I can’t even publish useful PWAs for myself on iOS, let alone make distribution easy.

I would recommend reading up on American history a bit more. The US has always been a regionalist country, with a weak federal government. As for the decline of the US empire — not sure what you mean here, but if you mean the waning of American influence abroad, that’s already happening and it’s voluntary. If you mean the decline of the country internally, such as reduction in quality of life and decline in GDP/output, this is already happening with the demise of globalization, but the US will be the least impacted, not most, owing to strong demographics, variation in climate, rich natural resources, and ability to integrate immigrants.
I don't think it is. If you can't own the property or have to pay extreme taxes you will definitely think twice about moving there or buying up real estate. Make it -hurt-. Then only billionaires can afford to live there. Problem solved, there aren't that many billionaires. Or simply outlaw it. I don't know why that is hard? I mean they own their country. No one has a right to buy property there other than the Portuguese if they just say no.

The ability to join datasets at google through BQ and 'Flink' like pipelines was really un-matched. No matter what dataset you wanted it was accessible and joinable using the same data-lake, query tools, and ACL system.

How long does it take to generate a single image? Is it in the 30 min type range or a few mins? It's hypothetically "possible" to run e.g. OPT175B on a consumer GPU via Huggingface Accelerate, but in practice it takes like 30 mins to generate a single token.
