Punishment/vengeance is a popular idea around here, but you have to also remember that a search engine is supposed to bring you the most relevant results.

Filtering out, say, Stack Overflow or Reddit because it has ads doesn't help you when it answers your question and is perhaps the only thing on the internet that truly does.

People seem to think there's this ad-less replica of the internet, sitting right behind our ad-riddled internet, where everything they want exists for free, it's just hidden. In reality, the websites making money are the ones providing the vast majority of things people are looking for.

Use https://search.marginalia.nu if you want to severely punish ads.

Your comment is more evidence of the notion that "problematic" is the woke religion's "blasphemous".

Presumably that permission does not mean the same thing in v3. That is, the site can still read/modify data but, of course, only through the specific declarative APIs that delegate the work to the browser.
Yeah, it seems like I had an idealistic view of what a side gig would be, whereas it's a lot more work than I wish to spend on it.

I'm happy in my day job; it's secure, I'm paid well and I get a lot of time with my family. Starting my own business would put family time in jeopardy which isn't an option, especially as I'd have to give up my main income.
I got fobbed off after a 24 hour delay on a long haul departing from London several years ago. I then sent a friendly email to the Civil Aviation Authority and not long after that the airline sent me a cheque.
Not discounting any of the other "Danger, Will Robinson!" comments, have you considered actually building the crazy thing they want?

At the moment, it sounds like you doing BS work and chasing your own tail.

It might be more interesting to change your attitude and jump on the delusional train (which a lot of startups are tbh), take the CEO more seriously and start building exactly what they want (or at least start prototyping). I don't think anyone will criticize you for taking the initiative and having a general positive attitude and start getting shit done.

It sounds like more fun than what you're currently doing, while you think of your options.
Indeed, and they hand out Netflix specials to anyone who can fog a mirror these days so it's probably not a useful measure... Maybe I should just do one.
That looks quite a bit more spartan than these chara corder keyboards I saw in use recently: https://www.charachorder.com/. They have a QWERTY keyboard with chording firmware (and a chip for custom keyboards) to try corded input for those who want to experiment without going all in.
Suppose an update is rolled out in app stores, and many people update to it. Suppose this new version contains surveillance instead of matching the published/reviewed code. Won't there be some substantial period of time during which many messages can be stolen before somebody eventually goes on twitter to say "hmm, wireshark shows more data than I'd expect" and/or "hmm, I can't get the source to build quite like the store's new apk"?

One anecdote from a UK internet user. I just tried googling

But what does this have to do with the point made in OP’s comment? They gave an instance of changed attitudes based off of language usage. They weren’t saying their kids don’t marginalize anyone.

As @loudouncodes mentioned, no easy way but to network and to market yourself. But you also need to consider which aspect of yourself you want to sell as the side gig.

This us not a kill list.

Only Russian propaganda calls it like this.

It is collection of people who have been hostile towards Ukraine.

It helps to evaluate bias in talk that pretends to be objective for example.

It can also help avoid blunders where somebody us asked to give speech and it end up to be filled with Russian propaganda.
Hey Mike,

Good to hear from you! We also enjoyed working with Triplebyte, and still think that hiring/recruiting is a great use of EthicalAds.

In general we've also found success with higher LTV SaaS products, and you might expect for display ads. Digital Ocean, Twilio, and MongoDB are folks who have done big campaigns with us over the years, as an example. I have a sort spot for the folks at Twilio, because they were actually the ones who convinced us to do ads on Read the Docs originally, with a hacked together campaign way back in like 2015 :) Running a Python-targeted campaign, with Python code in the ad image, linking to a Python-specific landing page tutorial really showed the vision for what we could build.

We've also had a lot of luck with more niche targeting for specific audiences. Our current major audiences are Backend, Frontend, Data Science, Security, & Devops: https://www.ethicalads.io/advertisers/#audiences -- Each of these audiences has had good success with folks targeting specific products (Think feature flagging in JS for frontend devs, and ML model services for data science).

As we grow and optimize our ML modeling, we're going to continue to expand our high-level topics, as well as offer more finer grained targeting.
I use Chrome because it's faster, safer, more stable. I don't believe V3 in any way is a serious issue for the internet in any meaningful sense either.

That is correct. I think it's always been the case that as clock speeds increase, power draw and heat generation accelerate (diminishing returns).

When you're comparing 7700X to 3700X, are you talking about performance at the same TDP limits, the same clock speed, or maximum performance?

It hasn't been officially deprecated or anything like that, and it still works fine for the most part [1]. However it hasn't received a lot of active development in the last couple of years.

I do think the whole concept behind Gulp, of creating processing streams through which files are fed to transform them, before writing to disk, is less useful than it used to be. This is because a lot of that functionality can now be handled by bundlers which understand the inter-dependencies between modules rather than just taking the input as a set of files. Also Node/JS's own async functionality is much more ergonomic to use than it needs to be, so additional async abstractions on top are less useful than they were.

[1] I'm aware of some issues related to file watching. See https://github.com/gulpjs/gulp/issues/2654
Tangent discussion: What are people's here experiences with running Stable Diffusion locally? I've installed it and haven't had time to play around, but I also have a RTX 3060 8GB GPU -- IIRC, the official SD docs say that 10GB is the minimum, but I've seen posts/articles saying it could be done with 8GB.

Mostly I'm interested in the processing time. Like, using a midrange desktop, what's the average time to expect SD to produce an image from a prompt? Minutes/Tens of minutes/Hours?
Yes, that’s absolutely where the focus goes, and is talked about very carefully to not run afoul of the cancellers.

The Gates Foundation’s work with vaccination will have a huge impact as longevity increases and child mortality drops, people tend to respond to the lower risk by having smaller families. Plus the general education and empowerment of women is a big strategy to control birthrates as well since it gives women more life options beyond motherhood. You will notice that the overall western narrative is that we have a low birthrate crisis and need to support family life better, but in Africa the effort is to bring that birthrate down. Touchy, touchy subject, especially since a massive population increase in the global south is already baked into the math and is as close to inevitable as it gets.

Zero-sum thinking can get you into a whole lot of trouble here, which is why I am basically a solar punk. If that’s not realistic we are screwed anyway and will tear each other to pieces over the last scraps of the biosphere.
> It always seemed to me that people with more of a managerial background would be better managers

The distinction dates back to the industrial revolution, where you had manufacturing line workers and line managers. A manager would usually be an owner's relative or someone they trusted – more loyal to the company than the unions.

This distinction perpetuated well into current age, just notice how much implicit bias there is about "programmers don't have people skills" to keep workers accepting a career ceiling. Most managers aren't skilled either, and not respected by the workers due to it, but companies won't keep them from managing because they need someone to be responsible for plans, estimates, OKRs, etc.

I guess in software it's "more" common due to survivorship bias – the business of software is so messed up and people have so little idea how to manage it, that companies without experienced leaders have a smaller chance. Strong companies and teams in the field have leaders with enough hands-on experience to have natural authority.

But these changes don't ensure that ads are displayed to users. This won't impact Google's ad revenue at all. At most it will negatively impact their revenue because the less powerful API will let the sketchier advertisers try to bypass the filters.
Imagine a world where the biggest search engine made its money from advertising. In that kind of a world, wouldn’t the search engine primarily be incentivized to show you the results pages with the most advertising, regardless of the quality of the content?
Shameless promotion to my twitter handle for retro tech adverts. I've been posting those amazing old tech adverts out of magazines 90s, 80s and older.

Images are already devalued on the web. Most people think that an article needs an image to not be a “wall of text,” with the result that many articles have barely relevant images that don’t add anything to the article at all. Like hotel room paintings, however nice they are, they are there to take up the space because an image is expected.

Actually relevant images are real photos of the thing you’re talking about, charts and graphs, screenshots, diagrams, and so on. Illustrations can be important content (consider a bird field guide), but often they aren’t.

Like the clip art and stock photos they will replace, these AI generated images aren’t a good substitute for the real thing, but I’m hopeful that at least people will have fun with them.

It might be interesting to consider how AI image generation could be used for nonfiction. Could you give it five imperfect photos of a bird species and ask it to draw a good illustration? Or maybe auto-create a good infographic from a spreadsheet? You’d have to do something to keep it from making up data points, though.
If they're arguing against a general statement (by Fry) with a specific, anecdotal example, it's fair to question whether that specific example is generalizable.
Of course I'm not just architecting everything by myself, and making decisions all day long. Every Software Engineer still makes a lot of architectural decisions on different levels - exactly how you described.

I make use of all the cores on my Threadripper regularly for multi-process parallelism. Large compiles regularly saturate all my cores. Development against multiple Kubernetes clusters also makes it beneficial to have a ton of cores.

The sites that sit on gov.uk are usually either:

* transactional services - those that let a person do a task, like applying for a driving licence or registering a trademark

* information services - a collection of guidance on a subject, like maximum working hours or data protection responsibilities

There are some that don't really fall into either category and are there to advertise something. They aim to be informational and inspirational. Some examples:

* https://helpforhouseholds.campaign.gov.uk/

* https://www.apprenticeships.gov.uk/

* https://national-security.campaign.gov.uk/

* https://skillsforlife.campaign.gov.uk/

The reason SEO is more important on these is that there's often competition. For example, if I search for 'teach in uk' the Get Into Teaching campaign site will be competing with lots of teacher training colleges and companies, job sites, etc.

Perhaps I wasn't clear, so let me be quite transparent: China has terrible human rights issues. One of those issues is eating babies which they SAY is just in rural areas, but if you happen to let loose a bio weapon on the world, I tend to be a little skeptical of your main story lines.

you seem pretty confused by words. Micro architecture is where you get IPC improvements, along with some fraction of the speed and energy efficiency improvements (it's not 100% the node, or rather, designing for a node is in feedback with microarch).
Similar situation here; I try not to unplug mine :)

That being said the heat output is so low my mini lives in a drawer and serves to host time machine, a Jupiter notebook server, media server and a couple parallels VMs.

The fact that it just as easily serves up a display on my tv, iPad, Chromebook etc is extremely nice. It's been reliable enough to act like an appliance & fast enough that I never worry what else is running.

I took a quick look at the subreddit before it was banned and I don't think I saw any real people represented. It was a lot of video game or anime style characters. And one of Shrek with a massive dong.
Unsolvable since it's a network of fallible humans we attempt to topologically score.

You can make decent attempts, such as academic peer review. Even this system perpetuates its own problems (beta amyloid) and has perverse incentives (publish or perish, falsified results), though.

Semantic web had some good ideas about this. Networks of signed FOAF data attached to articles and posts. You could form a side graph of trust information that you could revoke at any time.
I don't understand what the issue is with cross-compiling software, especially for different architectures. This seems more geared for running a binary on the same architecture across multiple different operating systems. This is great and all until you use some API that isn't the same on those operating systems. I imagine once you see something like this attempting to use comparable features and APIs as Go or something else, that you'll see the bloat increase to be equal in size if not more.
I appreciate your energy comparison, and it makes sense to me.
Just install any adblocker that supports v3.
I have a Titan X (Pascal) from like 2015 with 12GB of vram and I've had no trouble running it locally. I'd say it takes me about 30 seconds maybe to generate a single image on a 30ddim (which is like the bare minimum I consider for quick iterations), when I want to get more quality images after I focus on a proper prompt, I set it to like 100 or 200 ddim and that maybe takes 1 minute for one picture (I didn't accurately measure). I usually just let it run for a few minutes in bulk of 10 or 20 pictures while I go do something else then come back half 15-20 minutes later.

It runs pretty well but the most I can get is a 768x512 image, but it's pretty good for stuff like visual novel background art[0] and similar things.

A spin down filter solves for this. Manual ones are $50-$65, nice automated self cleaning ones are $175-$250. Great for well water imho to take the load off of disposable sediment filters further down the system. Depending on the make, you can typically swap out the stainless steel screens to change how aggressive your filtering is.

> It says Windows, but is it x86 or x64?

x64

> Can it make a binary that's both x86 and x64 for Windows?

Seems to be a PE32+, so it won't run on 32-bit Windows.

> Is that even possible?

Yes, it should be. A 32-bit process on 64-bit Windows can run 64-bit code by changing the segment selector - make a far call or jump to 0x33:<address>. See [0] for more details.

There are some caveats though. kernel32.dll refuses to be loaded as both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions in the same executable. So the executable can probably only import ntdll. One thing one might do is just compile both a 32-bit and 64-bit version of the actual program as dll's and embed them inside the launcher and then extract and load them using only api's in ntdll. In the case of APE it would probably just embed an x64-on-x86 emulator and run the executable in that in case it's being run on x86.

Another solution might be to create a .NET AnyCPU executable which will run as 64-bit on 64-bit versions of Windows.

That means the end to end encryption (if you verify your identities) works. It says nothing about how much meta data Signal collects.
I don't think so, the PE headers are different.

If you really wanted to, you could hack your own "fat binary" format by packing the 64-bit EXE as a resource within an x86 binary that detects the current architecture, but that's not very exciting.

ASUS Zephyrus G15 (GA503QM) with a laptop 3060 (95W, I think) with 6GB of VRAM, basujindal fork, does 512×512 at about 3.98 iterations per second in turbo mode (for which there’s plenty of memory at that size). That’s under 15 seconds per image on even small batches at the default 50 steps, and I think it was only using around 4.5GB of VRAM.

(I say “I think” because I’ve uninstalled the nvidia-dkms package again while I’m not using it because having a functional NVIDIA dual-GPU system in Linux is apparently too annoying: Alacritty takes a few seconds to start because it blocks on spinning up the dGPU for a bit for some reason even though it doesn’t use it, wake from sleep takes five or ten seconds instead of under one second, Firefox glyph and icon caches for individual windows occasionally (mostly on wake) get blatted (that’s actually mildly concerning, though so long as the memory corruption is only in GPU memory it’s probably OK), and if the nvidia modules are loaded at boot time Sway requires --unsupported-gpu and my backlight brightness keys break because the device changes in the /sys tree and I end up with an 0644 root:root brightness file instead of the usual 0664 root:video, and I can’t be bothered figuring it out or arranging a setuid wrapper or whatever. Yeah, now I’m remembering why I would have preferred a single-GPU laptop, to say nothing of the added expense of a major component that had gone completely unused until this week. But no one sells what I wanted without a dedicated GPU for some reason.)
