You are saying these things as if they are fact.

> Open Source though requires same access - rich and poor, good and evil and especially relinquishing control for you to decide which is which

No it doesn't. If you believe the legal system, then you believe that we can make real rules about people's behavior, even in circumstances where we won't physically be the there to force that behavior.

More concretely: We can certainly say "this code is freely available to read" without saying "you can do whatever you want with this code with no repercussions", even though technically anyone can download any open source code and use it to run a business on their servers.

If you do doubt that this is possible to enforce, then consider music: I can listen to almost any piece of modern music on Spotify. That does not mean I can use any piece of modern music in a commercial royalty-free unless I'm interested in getting sued.

The question is not whether we can enforce Copyleft/etc licenses. It's whether we have the will and money to do so.
It means that the employees are being let go because he did a bad job, not that they were low performing or that other employee performances caused patreon to perform better.

It doesn’t mean much in the grand scheme of things but it’s just that he is claiming culpability for all of the ills patreon is experiencing.
that's like... what class looks like. real class not something you instantiate objects from :)
Anonymity and privacy is very useful in a lot of legal use cases. One example is buying domain name without disclosing who is buying (disclosing that information may dramatically inflate price).

There are obviously workarounds without tornado cash but tornado cash is probably the cheapest option.
Russia is much more European than Yemen. So is Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Croatia, Albania, and Macedonia.

Moscow and, especially, St. Petersburg are pretty European historically and culturally. Western Russia accounts for 77% of Russia's population and is predominately influenced by the culture of Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Kyiv...

Europe isn't just Italy, Spain, & France...

Not every European country is Western European culturally...
This video seems very monarch-apologist. I'm guessing GCP Grey is from the UK, then?

Key quote: "Because it's still their land." (1:49 onward) Uh-huh. The real question is, should it be. The video also claims that the only reason historical locations are tourist attractions is because some royal graces them their their presence every now and than, which is just a weird take. I like GCP Grey, but this is one his weakest videos.
Could you imagine if there actually was legal liability for software developers? Imagine a world where ethics considerations actually mattered. Maybe we'd have fewer evil software corporations?
That's not news. It's been considered obvious since Kasparov lost to Deep Blue. The chess engines keep getting better at a Moore's Law rate; humans at best eke out a little improvement.

The whole cheating scandal right now revolves around the question of whether the challenger was assisted by AI. It's just assumed that the AI would play better moves.

Carlsen may or may not be the strongest player in the world. He has challengers, and he himself has gotten a tiny bit bored with just-plain-chess. They're currently tangled in minutiae of who gets to play for the title of "best". It takes over a dozen games to distinguish the best from the second-best, each of which is an exhausting game. They don't do it very often, and so the answer will always be a little hazy.

But there is zero doubt that the top AI player would trounce both of them -- even working together. Even plain Stockfish would give them a run for their money.
> Are we supposed to know who Jack is?

I should imagine the people that blog post is relevant to know who he is, yes.
The declaration of puts is missing at the stdio.h used by the web version.

I must regrettably inform you that the game runs very well on a M1 MacBook Pro, with an effective render resolution of ~2880x1800.
The communities/groups are significantly higher quality than the average subreddit, especially for niche subjects.

Frankly they're the only thing I use Facebook for, because the people on hobby groups are way more knowledgeable than those on reddit and they largely don't tolerate meme posts.
Kubota doesn't have the breadth of product that Deere does especially at the large end. Doosan kind of does under their various brands but they don't really compete that hard in the agricultural sector and I don't know if their repair parts and software ecosystem is more or less locked down than Deere.
I never had a Nintendo childhood, as I'm too old (grew up on Atari 2600, et. al.) I still find a lot of fun in that little machine. Even the Ring Fit game, which is a fitness game in case the title doesn't give it away, I find to be a lot of fun. This despite the fact that I run quite a lot (as in, trail races over 26 miles) and should probably poo-poo such things, but it's enough fun to fire it up once in a while and it can give me a workout even if it just takes a few rounds to get there.

Not that I'm negating your point. The fact that I can download just about every first-party game from decades-old Nintendo console says there's something to the nostalgia theory.
> "... I’m more confident than ever that the world needs a better economic system for creative people, and Patreon will keep building that system for creators over the decades ahead. However, the pandemic introduced volatility to the broader trend, starting with a rapid acceleration during COVID lockdowns. In response, we built an operating plan to support this outsized growth, but as the world began recovering from the pandemic and enduring a broader economic slowdown, that plan is no longer the right path forward for Patreon. I take full responsibility for choosing that original path forward, and for the changes today, which will be very difficult for our team."

It's the same pattern at so many other companies now. Over-hiring during COVID (thinking what exactly? that people would forever stay locked up at home with nothing else to do with their money?), before waking up to the reality that things have gone back to normal and that there was never really a plan whatsoever for those hired. Asses were put in seats though, so there's that.
I made the conscious effort before leaving Facebook to trade phone numbers, addresses and birthday dates from the people I wanted to really wanted stay in touch with, and put them in my phone. This was all within the last three years.

I’ve sent birthday gifts in the mail, and I’ve gotten gifts in mail from these very people.

Sometimes, when I wonder where the convenience that gets talked about in the context of Facebook and “staying in touch” ends and a more delicate form of “you’re probably not as close to some of the people on your friends list as you think” (which was absolutely the case for me) begins.

It took really minimal effort on my part to find other ways of staying in touch, but I think maybe the key is you have to WANT to stay in touch with people?

Just a shower thought.
And FB default notification settings are cancer.
America's largest experiment in UBI is probably the Alaska Permanent Fund (APF).

Why was it important to measure the positions of the stars and write them all down?

Surely just keeping the plate is sufficient information... If you ever need to see what a star looked like, you can still look back at the plate. And plates could also be reproduced in books and papers.
Video games are way up there when it comes to insane value for money. But it seems that players then buy way more games than they need.
I understand that. This is a very highly rated game on Steam. Clearly, many have come across it without realizing it is, in fact, free.

Even as a developer, if Steam were to recommend this game to me, I have no way of knowing it's FOSS. Very interesting strategy. I'll give them that.

I have enough misgivings about it though that I probably won't be playing it. Feels scammy. Like they are trying to essentially release a paid game, but with the support and goodwill of the FOSS community at their disposal.

I certainly hope all of the contributing developers are getting a cut...
My extended family has been the major reason I've held onto my facebook account. Nieces, nephews, cousins. Baby & puppy pics. Weddings, funerals, milestones, well wishes.

Agree, FB is trashing the place. But will say that, currently, putting feed in chronological order (https://www.facebook.com/?sk=h_chr) reduces the number of suggesteds considerably; usually there is some (non-obvious) way to organize the feed in one of the menus too.
> There's a tragic dimension that a system which connected so much of humanity to itself

How would you say Facebook connected humanity differently from what MySpace was doing before Facebook ate their lunch with a more consistent UI?

I also am increasingly of the opinion that humanity is not wired to connect globally. Our local social networks give us a buffer against centralized bad actors. When everyone was connected directly to everyone else, what we used to call "chain letters" before social media took off won the information war because they could bypass fact checkers that would refuse to pass them to their network back when social networks were more separated.
I think you’ve misread / misunderstood the original post.

“3 days into the job”
Ideally, that’s how it would be described in the internal meeting version.
But at least now a few MBAs can put "increased revenue at Meta by X%" on their resume!
Hopefully it'll support touch too... touch to drag out paths and move inventory things around is a wonderful experience in many games, and I'm always sad to see most Switch games not even support tapping on-screen buttons.
Start by doing both. Organically build your personal business to the point where if forces you to quit your day job because it's better in all ways.
I have 2 full time jobs and working for my startup. 1 job provided stocks, my startup provided crypto, and my monthly income overall is 15k. It's hard to handle everything but key is to prioritize and do as much as possible in a day. Nobody blames me if I hang on a task, because everybody has multiple jobs as well - it feels like an unspoken acceptance between people. For context, I'm living in Romania

There's quite a bit of smoke now.

There was another study showing DNA transcription, and you dismissed that too - not on any scientific basis, but because "anti-vaxers" discussed it, and you apparently had some issue with the journal.

You're all over this thread getting aggressive with people; accusing them of being Q fanatics and the like, without cause.

Kindly, consider that your anger might be covering for fear, shame, or something else. And even if it's not - could you rein in the general toxicity?
End of the day, unless it's opened up Dall-E 2 will be seen as an evolutionary dead end of this tech and a misstep.

It's gone from potentially one of the most innovative companies on the horizon to a dead product now I can spin up equivalent tech on my own machine, hook into my workflow and tools in an afternoon all because Stable Diffusion released their model into the wild.
Just get rid of things you don't want. "FBP" gives you find granular control over what information is displayed in the Facebook interface.
No because hair itself contains no DNA.
See the film, The Town (2010), where Ben Affleck runs by the local barbershop to collect hair to toss around at the crime scene. Though presumably the idea there was that all the local men, including the bank robbers, get their hair cut at that barbershop.
I did one of these with https://www.gozerog.com/ a few years back. Not cheap, but memories that'll last a life-time. Started with lunar and mars gravity, before going full zero g. Like the article says, just make sure you have your ass pointed at the ground before they bottom out!
plenty of ways to frame people, think about how anyone with access to a life insurance plan database can frame anybody for murder if the target "recently" opened a plan with someone they love (who is now dead)

prosecutors and jury eat that up daily

some serial killing contractor just has to sort by new, and there's probably some exposed S3 buckets or other Amazon datastores floating around
It isn't that movies like The Deer Hunter are slow, necessarily. It's that the scenes are doing things other than advancing "the plot". Things like revealing a hidden character trait or depicting the quality of the protagonist's world. I remember someone telling me that The Zero Effect (1997) was "too slow", when I thought it was moving along at a fast clip; I finally realized it was the difference in what we were getting out of (or looking to get out of) the movie that accounted for our differing perceptions.

Not that that can't be done poorly, either. But The Deer Hunter never struck me as slow, and I'm a kid who grew up with Star Wars as my template. But I got really into what we might call (erroneously) "character-driven" movies in the '80s.

(Dammit, I liked Chariots of Fire, but there was no way it should have taken Best Picture over Reds. Same with Ordinary People and Raging Bull.)
Can't have a post like this without a mention of this tweet:

Moscow and St. Petersburg - which make up a huge chunk of Russia economically, politically, and in terms of population - are very European historically and culturally.

But Russia is a gigantic country with a lot of population that isn't particularly European in any sense.

Ukraine on the other hand is basically 100% European any way you want to slice it beside Putin's revisionist history.
I'd say something like people are actually willing to pay the average or even the worst job-doer something resembling a living wage.

If the stats from things like Patreon are to believed (and filtering out the "dead weight" of creators who don't post or have given up without closing their account) there's a serious "top 1% of creators make XX% of the revenue" problem.

Which means that for a small fraction, it's a job, for the vast majority it's a money-losing hobby.
> The EU doesn’t stand a chance against the US: look how they forced us to wage a proxy war against Russia.

America forced the EU into a proxy war with Russia... by having Russia invade Ukraine? Sounds like somebody has been huffing Russian propaganda.
Cue a thread about how VSCode is a Trojan horse but nobody wants to stop using it because it's just so damn convenient.

In fairness, reading your search term, I had no idea what you were talking about so it's not entirely surprising the organic content producers don't match those terms well. Looks like the SEO folks do though.
> But that doesn't make it a job. You could do hard work in moving a mountain but that's not a job.

Job (n):

1. a paid position of regular employment.

2. a task or piece of work, especially one that is paid.

---

It seems to fit #2 perfectly (exhibiting to an audience), and #1 can be met based on e.g corporate structure (subscription pay into an LLC that normalizes the salary etc)

I'd argue that it's in fact potentially "skilled labor" in that it's not obvious what it takes to produce content that brings regular subscribers. Tons of adult content creators burn out and pivot because they can't get traction.
Facebook is a fantastic product, as long as you use it properly and not remotely as Facebook wants you to.

- Most important step: Unfollow every single person and page

- Follow entertaining groups like 'This cat is c h o n k y'

- Keep facebook messenger

- Use FB events for party planning

That's it, and it's easy: you get all the social graph functionality, all the event planning and chat stuff. The feed (if you even visit it, personally I might spend five minutes a week there) is fun and doesn't make you feel disappointed with your elderly family members.

Hey, incident.io CEO here. Glad to hear you’re happy with the product. The people at Grafana are great - congrats on the launch! Will have to take the product for a spin sometime :)
I never use FB but checked it just now and the mix seems fine. Out of the first 10 panels on my page 7 were friends or pages I follow. Remaining were 2 ads and one suggested post. I'm guessing it's worse if you use FB frequently and have seen all of your friends recent content already.
In nearly every western country (EU countries, Canada, Australia, New Zealand etc) the samples are securely stored indefinitely - in the US it depends on the state but many do keep the samples there as well. That does not mean they are readily accessible- there have been cases of misuse but it is extremely rare.

From a DNA perspective one can only use the Guthrie test samples for about a decade after collection so yes, in a worst case abuse scenario we have cards that could be mined for DNA across a bunch of <10 year olds.
Oh my mistake. Still stuff like 'return a || b' is the kind of thing I see in JS way more than in PHP codebases
> They do not understand conception of self and death, they will not grieve seeing death of their friends or relatives, they will never write a "Romeo and Juliet".

No because it might write another "Romeo and Juliett" or prove Riemann hypothesis you know what I mean. One mentally disabled man even won a Noble for invention of the Game Theory part of Mathematics.

> Is somebody else forcing you into that position?

In my mother language there is an idiom "hunger is not an aunt".

Give me some proves, please.
Through venal politicians, and--judging by the typical "man on the street" segment--voters who are barely literate?
Firstly, those are apparently geared towards legal research; I was replying to a comment about "a Google competitor". Secondly, B2B software (which I'm guessing those programs might be) has much less incentive for good, simplified UI/UX, even when it's obviously feasible and useful. The focus is almost always on customisations or new configurations that will draw in more leads.
Even with nearly two years of lockdowns it's estimated that over 70% of the population has gotten COVID at least once. Bhattacharya's whole point is that once it became clear that the virus was going to become endemic, lockdowns are just delaying infection and not preventing them. Thus the same number of long covid cases would have happened.
Market validation is still key! Though I do paddle in ideas myself:

Can be seen in the European data. Excess mortality should be back to normal levels, but it's barely changed between 2020, 2021 and 2022. Worse, older people do seem to be doing better but younger age groups worse.

Have you tried something like a TrackIR? It gives you the ability to do what you describe in a cockpit, as well as using your head to fix your eyes on a point of the horizon/landscape/object during maneuvers. I haven't tried a flight simulator with a VR headset, but TrackIR increases immersion so much that I never felt like I was missing the experience.

Admittedly it can take some tweaking to get the response curves calibrated to what feels natural, and it never feels as natural as simply looking around (but I'd argue putting on a headset comes with ergonomic issues of its own).
DALL-E tech aside, this is a great reference for artistic style.
You could argue that they're all trying to be IRC (or MUT before then), but without the netsplits.

Unconvincing. lol

If you tried to transmit video using the sixel protocol over ssh, you will experience bandwidth issues and immediately fail.

>>What you have liked to is nothing of the sort and merely opening of a window within the command prompt on a local machine

>I don't think you understand: sixels work IN BAND, meaning ssh will transmit the full video flux after it's converted into sixels, which will then be rendered on the remote terminal into pictures upon reception. It's just like doing 'cat' on a remote file

This will not work.

"Sixel is broken because the emulation behavior depends on the font size, thus theoretically can't be supported by terminals that don't have the concept of pixel size (e.g. a detached tmux). Sixel is broken because it cannot be supported by tmux with side-by-side panes. Sixel's palette-based approach is also a terrible legacy, practically unable to transfer photos."[1]
