> the fact that someone posted on 4chan referencing a post on another site is a ridiculous reason to ban the other site.

It really isn't. This is the usual ignorance of social contagion that we see from free speech purists who can't fathom that spoken ideas can spread and motivate catastrophic outcomes. If the nexus of directed harassment and bullying was on KF -- which it was -- and then someone posts threats on 4chan which reference KF, the causal culpability for that event is largely on KF's shoulders, not 4chan's. Whoever this psycho was was most probably radicalized to action on KF.

So? You seem to be under the unjustified impression that it's only the incitement that motivated this decision, when in reality incitement would've been the mere tipping point, in which case the specific duration that the incitement was up for is mostly irrelevant.
Have you tried something like 1024x768? Going to full 1024x1024 would double your VRAM usage so I can see why that wouldn’t work.

For my uses, the real benefit of having more VRAM is that you can generate more images simultaneously. My 3080 can generate only one 512x512 in 7 seconds but three 384x384 in that same timeframe. It’s allowed me to generate grids of hundreds of images in just a few minutes.
In my usage Colab and Colab Pro were similar, with plain Colab occasionally OOMing during model loading. That said I've actually been seeing times slower than yours on Colab and I think they're slower than on my RTX 3080. ~15 secs per image. I'm not sure why, though.

The problem with that is people don't monitor their usage. I'm sure some do but most I know just use power willy nilly and pay the bill at the end of the month. Doing this will result in alot of pissed off customers when they see a 5X increase in their bill.

There's numerous media stories about the Vatican City porn habits. There's a popular one where somebody downloaded a transgender porn film, but pornhub has said their searches are mostly standard. One article I found https://torontosun.com/2013/04/12/porn-site-reveals-download...

Keep in mind this is all IP tracking, so not that telling. Not that I'm aware of any Vatican proxies.

I'm baffled people in 2022 still build on top of Dockerfiles and docker-compose, when nixpkgs (no need to opt-in the entire NixOS ecosystem) solves most issues Docker used to solve (by making 23 copies of Ubuntu bitrot on your SSDs), but also comes with garbage collection for free, and an elegant composition language.
You make it sound like they made profit and had nothing to do with environment that made that possible.

How many times did the rich block change trough lobbying to safe their business model, how many think tanks were funded to push their point of view, how many times did they threaten to change their location to other states or even countries?

For instance why is China the workbench of the world despite the human rights situation. It wasn't better when it started, but who cares if it's for profit.

I think it's exactly the opposite, they are more responsible than we know.
> I am almost convinced that whatever direction the future carbonless energy production takes, hydrogen won't be a significant part of it.

Just based on the fact that it's the most abundant element in our 'space' (earth, atmosphere, reasonably accessible), I do really hope that you're wrong with this.

I'd feel a lot better about the fate of humanity if we somehow found a way to use Hydrogen as our primary fuel (if we can't otherwise do so with solar/wind/tidal).

They don't make any money from devs anyway. They sell their stuff to the business people who then force it onto devs. When I worked in government, we had some Oracle DBs. They were bought without consulting anyone who worked on the tech teams.

The scary part is this whole thing right here is very much about preventing the last part of your post.. Or at the very least asserting dominion over what a newly re-decentralized net would permit. (i.e. a decentralized system forcing the same rules and standards as now) I mean look at how cries of "disinformation" and "hate" are treated already. Look at what the owner of KF was willing to do to keep the site up.. creating his own internet infrastructure. And look how this is turning out. people literally melting down because an infrastructure company won't leave the site open to criminal (DDoS) attacks. A few hundred people are all that it takes to create a shit storm that leads to enforcement of their standards on the rest of society.
It was a valid question, no need to try to project hard-headedness. You probably won’t change any minds that way. So how do people come to know these things? Can you learn them in a vacuum sitting by yourself without communicating with anyone? Knowing when and how to add tests is a company-specific task, it’s different every place you’ll work, someone has to tell you. What if the primary reason code breaks really is because people weren’t communicating over the process, requirements, dependencies or design enough? All the things you mentioned are things a mentor and code reviews and documentation are meant to address, i.e., communication.
Same. This misunderstanding of gas (and batteries) is prevalent in all post-apocolyptic fiction.

Speaking personally, I would watch a more realistic apocalypse scenario where people had to relearn/reinvent older ways of doing things in the ruins of modern civilization, like how to ride/tame/breed/maintain horses for everyday use, how to heat/cook/survive at scale without electricity, running water, or fossil fuels. It's not just the technical challenge of it, but the emotional challenge, the humility required to "go backward", that would make interesting drama.
> If I was CEO of Cloudflare, and I and my employees were being harassed, doxxed, threatened by an online mob, I'd have done the same. Never mind taking a principled stand, it's not worth being involved in the first place.

Fair enough. But this CEO was blowing clouds in our face that they took this action because our legal system is not up to the task!

It's so sad that Mr. Prince apparently can't afford having a competent legal team to explain to him the concepts of "Rule of Law", "Due Process", "Courts", "Judges", "Juries", "Evidence", and all that other [quaint!] aspects of our (broken!) "traditional legal system".
Agreed -- Perl does it with labels this way, and JavaScript too. It has always seemed totally sensible in the occasional real-world examples I've seen in the wild.

On my 3070 I get that error unless I set my batch size to 1. My typical setup is to do six batches of one and it works fine (although I minimize the number of visible things on my screen while it's running). This reliably produces one image every 7-8 seconds.

You captured my feelings much more eloquently than I would have.

It would have been fine if they acknowledged some fueling problems and said they wanted to continue troubleshooting on the launch platform so they could test everything there while it was assembled. That way they could work on problems found there while disassembling the rocket to fix the hydrogen fuel leaks back in the assembly room
Right. That would make as much sense as letting someone walk on burglary charges because they brought all of the stolen goods back and arranged them as they were before.

I’m a long time lisper. Learned Haskell ... a couple of times now. It’s interesting and in some cases fun and elegant. But I just kept coming back to Lisp for actual work. Lisp just seems to be at the sweet spot between functional, extensible, and work-a-day, and the parens just make the refactoring experience so fluid that it’s like a drug. (Edit: I want to learn clojure, which should be easy from Lisp. I’ve avoided it bcs the JVM makes me nauseous. But I’m told by my cj-loving ex-lisp hacker friends that you don’t need the JVM. So maybe I’ll try again.)

The Song dynasty was not anywhere near an industrial age. China never went through a machine revolution with great proliferation of the usage of machines as in things like windmills, water wheels, clocks, trip hammers, screw presses etc: https://erikexamines.substack.com/p/the-missing-chinese-mach...

China had machines, but they were used at a much smaller scale and had no way to expand in usage thanks to unsuitable geography and climate in China.

When I was a kid, Ender's Game.

The movie is garbage, it's not worth watching. The most interesting stuff happens in the main character's internal dialogue.

The main character is an intelligent outcast and that thinks differently, very enticing to a kid that feels the same way.

Ender's Game was on the U.S. Marine Corps' reading list.

There isn't much people can do when some Twitter mob starts harassing them either. They openly coordinate capaigns to ruin people's lives, dump personal information and pictures, call companies to demand that people be fired, apply pressure on sponsors and advertisers. Coordinated efforts to hurt some enemy as much as possible without actually resorting to physical violence.

If you have examples of such people getting banned or arrested, feel free to post them. I've seen numerous examples to the contrary over the years to the point it turned into a neat little collection.
These companies are widely criticized for enabling harassment, hate, and violence. But these aren't the primary content on these websites. Forums largely dedicated to hating women and trans people are in a meaningfully different category.
> If woke culture is not a thing, then what is the word to describe what you know that I’m talking about?

I don't know what you are talking about. I assume from both the term and the claims you make about it, that you are using “woke culture” in its standard use, as a term for a thing which exists only in the right-wing propaganda and the minds of those influenced by it, in which case it is not a terminology problem, but an understanding of reality problem.

"Wasteful" is always in the eye of the beholder. Spending in one's own district is never "wasteful". It's only other people's spending that is a waste.

So while politicians love to talk about cutting "waste", they never actually do. It's something that exists in aggregate but somehow no actual program ever gets cut.

Each program does exist for a reason. Cutting the budget is about making hard choices between reasons. And nobody ever loses reelection for failing to make hard choices.

The US has the luxury of being able to borrow cheaply, and it's not necessarily a bad thing to do so. But that means that the politicians campaigning most loudly about "waste" get to say a lot without ever grappling with genuine issues.

Like you I also like creative problem solving, and aha moments. Sometimes I think I should have studied some physics I feel like switching to software engineering but I do not have the qualifications for it. All I have is years of experience in ML and CV. However, I managed to transition to graphics somehow! Graphics is something I feel closest to physics and enjoy it a lot! I want to get into simulations and animations, but no idea how!
Other questions might also be "implementation defined", thus a caveat to assume GCC/LLVM implementations on x86/amd64 at the start.

I.e. C standard enforces undefined very sparingly iirc, and most of the corner cases are implementation defined.

I may also be misremembering things: it's been 20 years since I've carefully read C99 (draft, really) for fun :))

What is wrong with your first test? Find some way to persist the result if you like it and make a test that checks that you can still get that result. Now you can sanity check by running the test to make sure it didn't break. That is one benefit of having the test, did something new break something old. Generally that is as far as I take TDD. While writing new routines, it is nice to have a test calling those routines rather than maintain whole executables because many IDEs will run those tests and you can lay down breakpoints to figure out why the routine is bombing or giving an incorrect result. When/if something breaks and you find yourself debugging back into any particular nitty areas, that might indicate a good place to think about putting a test so you don't have to exert yourself getting to that breakpoint again, next time you'd run the test and get a pass fail. I wouldn't worry at all about the purity of it all, think about how having a test can save you time in the debugging process thats it.
For a person satisfied with a single monitor, I figure it makes sense to get a monitor that is itself a dock.

The difficulty created by NAT and IPv4 is drastically overstated. Even if users' devices generally had public IPs, users still wouldn't want to install server software nor leave their computer on. There is no money to be made pushing solutions that cut out the middlemen, so no advertising continually telling people "Try FooTransfer", and thus no network effects. Instead, one user goes "I can send you this using FooTransfer" and the second user goes "that sounds scary and hard".

The Lord of the Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien.

Don't think I need to explain what it's about at this point. As to what drew me to read it multiple times, that's due to it still being the greatest high fantasy story ever created. And it's a very balanced story. Every character, even the most powerful ones, has their flaws and weaknesses. Every choice has consequences, and could be the undoing of everything that the heroes are working towards.

Man, I love that book.

Actually it's not just them. I have it for my local area hydro company in Canada, it's the same thing. I can't find where to cancel at all.

EDIT: So I did some digging, and it's confusing to say the least. In the app, it points you to the Google store page when you tap more info about the program. A search points to a page that tells you to contact your hydro company. On my hydro company's page, there is ZERO information about this, then a second search that landed me on Google Support page, which finally mentions the program is administered by some company in the US that is "partnered" with my hydro company, hidden deep inside the terms and conditions. And on that page, it says I actually have to call Google to unsubscribe.
If you have a 32-bit architecture, you don't necessarily have 8-bit and 16-bit hardware operations outside of memory operations (load/store).

Now, I don't find this reasoning persuasive--it's not that hard to emulate an 8-bit or 16-bit operation--and judging from the history of post-C languages, most other language designers are equally unmoved by this reasoning, but I can see someone in their right mind designing a language that acts like this. Especially if the first architecture they're developing on is precisely such on architecture (PDP11 doesn't have byte-sized add/sub/mul/div).
I didn't mean a formal standard - I checked the definitions and what I'm referring as is that US generally prefers central or "packaged" systems (single big unit in the utility room, air is piped from there into the living space through various ducts) where as Europe prefers "split" systems where you have units in each room with refrigerant pipes going back to the outdoor unit.
