> if I copy and paste one page from each of a thousand books it would be.

It almost certainly would not be infringement. One page of text out of an entire work is very small. Amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole is one of the factors considered when making a fair use defense. This hypothetical book would also have zero effect on the potential market for the source books.

AI-generated images generally won't infringe on the training images because they don't substantially contain portions of the sources. If a generated image happened to be substantially similar to a particular source image, it could also affect the potential market for that source image. But it's also likely that there tons of human-made images that are coincidentally also substantially similar and they're not infringing on each other; they're also probably in the AI's training set so good luck trying to make the case that your image in the training is the one being infringed. On top of that, if the plaintiff could win, the actual market value of the source work is relevant to damages and that value is likely almost nothing so congratulations, you tied up the legal system just to get one AI-image taken down.

BTW, using all the images to train the AI is not itself infringement; I can't say there was no wrong-doing in the process of acquiring the images but using them to train the AI was not infringing on the copyrights of those images.

In one of Sid Myers games he has a quote that always stuck with me "Human behavior is economic behavior. The particulars may vary, but competition for limited resources remains a constant. " and you can watch that play out here.

Crypto prices are falling and violence around that community goes up. Corporations see the economy going into a recession and start layoffs. I wonder if more fraud, wage theft and illegal tax avoidance happens during economic down turns as well?
All I know is that I donate $15 to some race one time using a unique email address and then get all kinds of spam at that email address from other politicians I've never heard of. Something is fishy there.
That is also true, basically target imperfections plus noise in the laser cause imperfection in the acceleration process. Essentially the shape of the bubble can change the accelerating fields uniformity, leading to the divergence and spread issues. They usually cryo their target to minimize just plain chaotic behavior from it being a gas, so generally most of the jitter is due to wings of the laser itself causing perturbations in the gas/plasma (it's a plasma once the peak reaches it). That said, you're totally right about the target itself being a source of noise too.
Of course it is. Following your logic no photograph can be copyrighted taken with a camera. After all, the subject already existed you've seen in your camera, you merely recorded the photons with a sensor, digital or analog, doesn't matter.

I would be so interested to hear your experience.

How to get leverage
We had to build this in house at my last two companies and it was such a pain in the a*s. Especially since usually we wanted to test out a couple different onboarding experiences to see which one performed better, and have a few variations depending on the user.
Confused. post-WW2 borders are not sacred, but 400yo events are...the history of something is more important than the current reality...an independent self-governing Ukraine means less than 'who gave it to whom'. This is mostly political doublespeak rationalization.

Reality: in this day and age it's not OK to begin bombing your neighbors for any reason. Never mind blamethrowing, equating old treaties to bombing, and appeals to good ol-fashion murder.
Was this with the `base` model? `large` is running ok on a P100 in colab, but is about 4% the speed of `base.en`. Certainly seems like some of these models will be fast enough for real-time.
Also curious about this. If the mainboards are compatible (especially if they’re usable outside the laptop like the current ones are) this is very interesting.

The biggest barrier has been patents and availability. A number of patents expired this year, so I'm expecting a lot of new players and locations to get into LFP production very quickly.

LFP for home or grid storage is a nearly no-brainer compared to other chemistries since it's so much more stable and has much better aging and cycle characteristics. The slight loss of power density doesn't matter for stationary installations.

Are post WW2 borders sacred? Is Crimea, transferred by Soviet Russia to the Ukraine in 1954, sacred? It's called international law. Yes it should be sacred. Nothing you say justifies by any means Putin's aggression and war crimes. Putin is a thug. He is a mob boss. Ukraine will join the EU. Ukraine will join NATA. Ukraine's economy and culture will flourish while Russia will be a pariah until Putin dies of old age and a respectable and honourable leader takes his place.

Loving R2. I am having an issue of uploading larger files though, like 100MB+. The error I get is:

I had someone interviewing for a us a couple of years ago. It wasn't a tech role but we were very clear that if he would want, we'll transition him gradually in the next year or so+ all the support he'd need. I go through his CV and I see 2 years of experience in Java. Oh nice, but very unlikely to be truth. So I ask if he really has two years of experience. He didn't. We ended up giving him a job,but he had zero interest in transitioning into a tech position.

SQLite almost certainly is the better edge RDBMS than Postgres, if only because it has less features taking up space.

However, "local SQLite vs. remote Postgres/MySQL" remains a false dichotomy when talking about network latency.
If you knew what Tailscale or nebula was you’d know exactly what this did. If you were someone who had a problem that could be solved by this product, you’d already be familiar with those brands.

Besides, did you read the first two sentences?

Did you read the sentence after the one with brands?

> It aims to take advantage of existing networking concepts like CIDRs and the security properties of WireGuard to turn your computer's basic IP networking into more powerful ACL primitives.

Innernet creates a private overlay network using WireGuard. Unlike the brands it mentions which do the same thing, it uses CIDRs and WireGuard to implement ACL and permissions.

Is this similar to CSV virtual tables in sqlite?

https://www.sqlite.org/csv.html
To elaborate:

The problem in 2008 is correlated risk — basically, the difference between rolling once per mortgage (uncorrelated defaults) or just once that impacts all the mortgages (correlated defaults). Creating a “more secure” investment out of nominally more “less secure” for investments depends on the risk being uncorrelated, ie every risky investment is a separate roll.

But as we saw in 2008, many people may default at once if the economy becomes unhealthy.

Siri and Cortana have to run at least in real time, with reasonable compute resources. Probably faster than real time when the audio gets shipped off to the cloud and transcribed there. This model can't do that (in the "large" version, which the examples use).

You shouldn't need to "think for yourself" as a prerequisite to have usable tools. Your thinking energy is much better spent solving original problems or channeling your creativity.

Personally - I think KDE 3.5 (yes I'm that old) was near perfect. As of 4.x, they were prioritising adding the ability to freely hand-rotate desktop widgets (who the actual f8ck wants a skewed widget!?) over performance and stability. I could live with a useless feature, but I couldn't continue to run it on a computer with 256MB of memory, which was all I could afford back then. I can't remember what I switched to at the time, but I never came back.

I think it's a new capability to add good speech to text, search, and models that can understand and process text. You have microphones recording speech everywhere, models turning that speech into easily searchable text, and something like GPT-3 reading all the speech and raising red flags for any transgressive idea you please.
Where is the data actually being stored in this setup? A copy on each machine running the application? If so, is there another copy somewhere else (e.g. S3) in case all nodes go down?

Also, what happens if the Consul instance goes down?

If my application nodes can't be ephemeral then this seems like it would be harder to operate than Postgres or MySQL in practice. If it completely abstracts that away somehow then I suppose that'd be pretty cool.

Currently finding it hard to get on board with the idea that adding a distributed system here actually makes things simpler.

Afghanistan didn't work for them because they couldn't hold territory after initially capturing it. I think there was one valley they had to conquer 3 times.

UML's problem is not really that it's too formal but that it's usually too detailed, too vague or too out of sync with the real system to be useful.

It was also heavily associated with Big Design Up Front, which has been more or less trashed in favor of agile / iterative improvements / spikes / whatever you want to call it.

PlantUML still seems to be a thing, although perhaps more for general diagramming.

I put together a silent pc earlier this year and I'll never go back. I had a Dell "new" XPS with 16 cores and 32GB on it, and the fan for the laptop itself runs 80% of the time, and even the docking station for it has a fan that runs pretty often. This thing in contrast never makes a single sound.

Ukraine didn't have 300k when Russia invaded. They may have more now. Anyone have data?

And, 300k without artillery, tanks, air support, and logistics isn't an overwhelming force. Does Russia have the rest of what it takes to make them an effective force?
Lesson learned. I was confused about the title policy.

I’m a big fan of Cal Newport. His overarching theme is to be intentional about how you use your time. If you aren’t specifically planning and blocking your schedule, it will turn into a fragmented mess and not allow you to get in the deep thinking periods that many projects require.

Fair enough. You're right, you didn't call for anyone to be banned, I take that back.

The CDC lied about a different topic, whether they would monitor the VAERS database. The NIH lied about masks (Fauci stated in the NYT that he had lied to try and preserve masks for healthcare workers), and herd immunity (Fauci in the NYT again, he changed his claims about the herd immunity threshold based on opinion polling).

"Re Zeke Hausfather tweet, interestingly he's not denying there's an emergency"

Yes as I said, he's a well known climatologist who very much has done his bit to stoke claims of doom. I picked him as someone who can in no way be labelled as out-of-field, not a specialist or in some way a minority scientist. Yet he is now pushing back on claims that are to be found all over media, politics and even this forum e.g. a well known US politician has claimed that "the world is going to end in 12 years if we don't address climate change". That's clearly nonsense but saying so means now even Hausfather finds himself labelled a "denier" who is outside the consensus. If he can be, anyone can.

So he's a good illustration of the risks of this ban-anyone-who-disagrees-with-whatever approach, which to your credit you aren't proposing, but obviously PayPal and others are implementing.

Sure, but only Americans are allowed to play on the sites allowed in the US. Some entities like pokerstars have seperate sites for the rest of the world but those are very much unapproved in the US, and thus only Americans can stream poker on Twitch from now on (and they make up a small amount of the streamers given the poor rules in the US for playing it).

This is a legitimate question, so I'm not entirely sure why you're being faded.

Chromebooks do have a reputation for being under-powered budget mobile devices because they do serve that sector. They also do a lot more that can't be done as easily on Linux, if you have hardware that can support it.

As others have said, Pixelbooks are still coveted devices, and I've been tempted for years to buy one. I thought the original Framework would serve that niche, but it ultimately didn't.

> But I believe libc is fundamentally a “hole” in the sandboxing of Nix, at least on OS X.

Nix doesn't sandbox builds on macOS at all by default, and turning sandboxing on breaks some builds: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/1821

But the libc issue goes deeper. This blog post has some explanation: https://matthewbauer.us/blog/darwin-stdenv-update.html

> Linux is unique among operating systems due to the fact that the Kernel and Libc are developed independently. Linux is maintained by creator Linus Torvalds and a community of contributors. Glibc, the most popular Libc for Linux, is maintained by the GNU project. As a result, Linux has a strong separation between Syscalls and Libc.

> [ ... ]

> To accomplish this, Linux provides a stable list of syscalls that it has maintained across many versions. This is specified for i386 at arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_32.tbl in the kernel tree. The syscalls specified here are the interface through which the Libc communicates with the kernel. As a result, applications built in 1992 can run on a modern kernel, provided it comes with copies of all its libraries.

> The macOS Libc is called libSystem. It is available on all macOS systems at /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib. This library is the main interface that binary compatibility is maintained in macOS. Unlike Linux, macOS maintains a stable interface in libSystem that all executables are expected to link to. This interface is guaranteed by Apple to be stable between versions.

> In Nixpkgs, we maintain this compatibility through a list of symbols that are exported by libSystem. This is a simple text list and is available for viewing at NixOS/nixpkgs/pkgs/os-specific/darwin/apple-source-releases/Libsystem/system_c_symbols. The symbol list is created by listing symbols (nm) on the minimum macOS version that we support (for my PR, 10.12). We do some linking tricks to ensure that everything that we build in Nixpkgs only contains those symbols. This means that we can reproducibly build on newer versions of macOS, while maintaining compatibility with older macOS versions. Unfortunately, newer symbols introduced in later versions cannot be used even on systems that have those symbols.

> A side effect of macOS design, is that fully static executables are not supported in macOS as they are on Linux. Without a stable syscall interface, there is nothing to provide compatibility between versions. As a result, Apple does not support this type of linking.

So Nixpkgs does do some things to try to let you peg builds only to what's available in older versions of the macOS libc, but it doesn't try to let you bring your own libc.

There's at least one libc that does claim this kind of portability of course, and is the subject of lots of good posts here on HN. Maybe the author of Cosmopolitan libc ( https://justine.lol/cosmopolitan/index.html ) might have something insightful to say here.

> It is surprising to me that ostree does not let you do any sort of bind mount or symlink of a non-reserved location like /gnu to some other filesystem, so I'll have a whack at it.

...Well, it might. I actually had zero experience with both ostree/silverblue and guix when I tried doing this, and may have made some hasty assumptions.

EDIT: I do know however that guix doesn't work if the store is a symlink. I tried doing that a while back and it didn't work.
A race to the bottom ultimately hurts everyone.

It's already a race to the bottom. It's just the fact that "doing the job well" hasn't been the only factor in the race. Strip off "being able to move to and tolerate living in the right place" and the race gets a lot more fair in my opinion.
