It is almost a rule of banking that pegs are made to be broken.

If you say that one of something is worth one of the other, you are promising that you have a bottomless supply of the currency on both sides of the peg. This almost never actually happens and whoever is running the peg will inevitably be caught with their pants down. Bankers specifically love breaking pegs and have the means to do so.

If USDT was run by the Federal Reserve nobody would question the system; because then they'd have the capability to issue both the USDT token and the dollars backing it. They would be considered as fungible as dollars in the bank versus dollars in your hand.

>Whether the Fed actually has the technical tools to do this is another question.

its unlikely the fed is reactive enough in the short term to have any real effect on inflation presuming its tooling is effective. the interest rate hike took six months to implement, and began with a quarter of one percent increase. this was before earnings reports for the prior christmas holiday but november itself was a sobering enough red flag that Powell should have immediately pushed for 1% or more. its taken us nearly a year to arrive at the 3% we're at now, but in my opinion this inflation wont stop for another year, and it wont stop even at clinton-era interest rates of almost 6%. Quantitative easing --and the feds decade long addiction to it-- make this thoroughly uncharted territory. the interest rate push will likely be the straw that breaks corporate real estate, no matter how hard Bloomberg pounds his fists and demands a return to cubicles in his newspaper. this will likely tumble back into another residential housing or auto lending crisis. The student loan forgiveness push and reforms on wage garnishment also send a clear signal that our nations 1.73 trillion dollar nickelodeon of perpetual youth debt is becoming a serious threat as well.
"The conflict at Kraken began this spring after Mr. Powell questioned employees’ use of preferred pronouns and engaged in a lengthy discussion about whether women are inherently less intelligent than men.

I agree that server rendered would be faster, just the article had presented the absolute best-case scenario for the server. That said there could be other tradeoffs at play. Maybe loading the JavaScript and requesting a small amount of JSON each page is faster loading the initial page and then scrolling 10 pages down is faster than the server rendering out each page and appending it to the end.

> The sudden removal of these titles makes ebook collections similarly unpredictable

It's disappointing how much effort some people in our field have devoted to imposing the limitations of paper books on bits, thereby eliminating much of the benefit of ebooks deriving from their digital nature.

It is also disappointing how academic publishers seem to view technology primarily as a means of extracting more money from students and universities.

>The vast majority of people don't want to fight in a war.

This has always been true. And yet the human race has had so many.

I think we have reached an inflexion point globally where the scars of WW2 have ceased to have the tempering influence on politicians they did in, e.g. the 90s.

The lack of a living cultural memory of total war makes it a great deal more likely.
On the other hand- crates.io + the toolchain make it way easier for fixes to propagate outward into the ecosystem, and then for new builds to be created with them (even for multiple platforms at once)

There's a huge list of tradeoffs between dynamic and static linking, and Rust is betting that in today's world, with modern tooling, internet availability, hardware speeds, and memory size, the benefits of static linking outweigh the costs. I guess time will tell

But- traditionally Linux has really leaned into the opposite approach, so it'll be interesting to see how that dissonance plays out, and whether one or both is forced to compromise, as Rust gets more embedded in the Linux ecosystem
I think the theory of this article is fine, but the solution of sacrificing weekend time with family to eek out some time for work goals feels bad to me. It also involves pushing more child care onto the partner in the relationship, when it sounds like they are already sacrificing large chunks of their time on a commute so that the family can live close to the researchers place of work.
That's a pretty long rant to not have any mention of the reasons for which the removal was done, nor to have any mention of what was tried in attempt to find those reasons out.
What makes a great tech talk?
My argument isn't really whether this is morally fraud. Maybe the device is really being "creative" or maybe it's copying. The question is whether the things supposed originality can be defend in court.

What if i create a painting of a river by hand in acrylic and also draw a getty-watermark-looking thing on top using acrylic? As for why, i would put it there as an integral part of the piece, to allude to the fact of how corporations got their hands over even the purest things that have nothing to do with them, with the fake watermark in acrylic symbolizing it.

A human artist might well do that and make that defense in court. For all anyone knows, some GPT-3-derived-thing might go through such a thought process also (though it seems unlikely). However, the GPT-3-derived-thing can't testify in court concerning it's intent and that produces problems. And it's difficult for anyone to make this claim for it.

Edit: Also, if instead of a single work (of parody), you produced a series of your own stock photos, used the Getty Watermark and invited people to use them for stock photo purposes, then your use of the copyrighted Getty Watermark would no longer fall under the parody exception for fair use.

I'm the parent commenter, and I strongly disagree with the idea that stimulus should be directed by the federal government.

The federal government is an extremely poor resource allocator. It knows nothing about local and personal wants and needs. In my view, funding should be dolled out to individuals and maybe local governments. That way money flows from the bottom up, not top down.

The money flow is an extremely important factor: when money flows to individuals, each individual gains "votes" to allocate resources. Those votes informs how and where the economy grows at a granular level. The federal government cannot do this with any level of precision or efficiency.

If higher levels of government need money to do things, they should tax for--this includes some portion of the transfer payments. I know it sounds redundant for the government to tax money they've handed out, but I think governments need to feel the pain of working to get the money in the first place.

I'm also convinced you would dramatically reduce the amount of fraud and favoritism that occurs since decision making will end up being decentralized.

Here's a "hot take" example. The federal government funding child care is a dumb idea.

1) Not everyone needs child care.

2) Not everyone needs child care in the way the federal government wants to provide it.

3) An entire bureaucratic apparatus needs to be developed to define what child care is, what constitutes valid child care, who can provide child care, blah, blah, blah. This will be expensive to manage and will metasticize in its own way over time.

So why not just give people money to people who have young children to do whatever they want to do with it?

Maybe you add some provisions to prevent people from making babies to cash in checks, but I'm assuming writ large I can trust my fellow citizen to make better decisions about their child care than whatever "governmental apparatus" we want to create to do that for them.
From the model's perspective, it's not a distinct motif, that's the thing (and, it struggles quite a lot to reproduce the actual mark). The model doesn't have any concept of what a "watermark" is. As far as it's concerned, it's just a compositional element that happens to be in some images. Most "watermarks" Stable Diffusion produces are jumbles of colorized pixels which we can recognize as being evocative of a watermark, but which isn't the actual mark.

A quick demo: I fed in the prompts "a getty watermark", "an image with a getty watermark", and "getty", and it spat out these: https://imgur.com/a/mKeFECG - not a watermark to be seen (though lots of water).

I was then able to generate an obviously-not-a-stock photo containing something approximating a Getty watermark, with the prompt "++++(stock photo) of a sea monster, art": https://imgur.com/a/mNC6XtQ - the heavily forced attention on the "stock photo" forces the model to say "okay, fine, what's something that means stock photo? I'll add this splorch of white that's kinda like what I've seen in a lot of things tagged as stock photos" and it incorporates that into the image as a to satisfy the prompt.

We can easily recognize that as attempting to mimic the Getty watermark, but it's not clearly recognizable as the mark itself, nor is the image likely to resemble much of anything in Getty's library.
There's a 3rd option between "break the world" and "keep everything the same forever".

Look into rust's editions. Short version: any compilation unit[1] can declare which edition it is written for. The code in that unit must be valid under the rules of the edition, but different units with different editions can be compiled into a larger program.

https://doc.rust-lang.org/edition-guide/editions/index.html

[1] the compilation unit in rust is a crate. That doesn't mean it has to be put into crates.io, just that it has to be cordoned with its own Cargo.toml and any non-public structs/functions/etc will not be accessible from outside the crate.

[00:00.000 --> 00:05.400] Gordy and County Kerry are investigating the theft of up to 60 sheep on Mount Brandon.

[00:05.400 --> 00:10.400] One of the farmers is offering a reward for information leading to the return of the use,

[00:10.400 --> 00:12.200] which are worth thousands of euro.

[00:12.200 --> 00:14.200] Well, I'm fine with that.

[00:14.200 --> 00:15.200] That's right.

[00:15.200 --> 00:16.200] Do you own them?

[00:16.200 --> 00:17.200] Anyone can say it.

[00:17.200 --> 00:18.200] Fine with that.

[00:18.200 --> 00:22.720] Last Saturday, Mikey Joe O'Shea brought his flock of Scotch sheep down from the mountain

[00:22.720 --> 00:25.320] commonage ahead of lambing.

[00:25.320 --> 00:29.840] He discovered over 50 were missing, allowing for a number of deaths and

[00:29.840 --> 00:30.840] strays.

[00:30.840 --> 00:34.600] Mikey is convinced over 45 sheep have been stolen.

[00:34.600 --> 00:35.600] It was a good night.

[00:35.600 --> 00:36.600] It would be a full moon there.

[00:36.600 --> 00:37.600] It would be a good night.

[00:37.600 --> 00:38.600] It would be bright out.

[00:38.600 --> 00:40.600] There could be anyone going up in the mountains.

[00:40.600 --> 00:41.600] It would be a good night.

[00:41.600 --> 00:43.600] Well, that was 45 sheep missing.

[00:43.600 --> 00:49.600] Mikey and the lambs and everything in the sheep, they counted out a nice bit of money.

[00:49.600 --> 00:52.200] They've been doing the boat in Nassan.

[00:52.200 --> 00:53.200] It's a big one.
[00:53.200 --> 00:54.200] It's a big one.
[00:54.200 --> 00:55.200] It's a big one.

[00:55.200 --> 00:59.000] Mikey's next door neighbor says some of his sheep have also been stolen.

[00:59.000 --> 01:00.000] Come back.
[01:00.000 --> 01:01.000] Come back.
[01:01.000 --> 01:02.000] Come back.

[01:02.000 --> 01:03.000] I've been missing about 10 years.

[01:03.000 --> 01:04.000] It's not all that difficult.

[01:04.000 --> 01:06.320] All they've got to do is have a good dog.

[01:06.320 --> 01:10.560] Have a good dog and go at night, some moonshine night.

[01:10.560 --> 01:11.560] Just put the dog around him.

[01:11.560 --> 01:14.120] Put him on a trailer and walk him.

[01:14.120 --> 01:18.360] And then probably somebody else to pick him up.

[01:18.360 --> 01:29.960] Everybody's doing it north, but he's doing it.
Definitely something of an Emacs renaissance, I'd say. Personally, I have been on a 2 year experiment using doom-emacs as my primary IDE. Doom really helped ease me into the Emacs world, by vastly improving and modernising the UX for new users (let's be frank, Emacs has an awful UX out of the box).

I have to say though, I'm actually starting to migrate back to purpose built tools. Obsidian over org-roam/org-mode, and VSCode/IntelliJ for coding. Magit/forge are still irreplaceable for me though - such great software.
> Instead, Bottomley suggested that, rather than bringing in Rust, it might be better to just move more Rust-like features into C. Ojeda said that he has actually been working with the C language committee to push for that to happen, but any such change will take a long time if it happens at all. Christoph Hellwig said that this sort of change will have to happen anyway unless the plan is to rewrite the whole kernel in Rust; he was not pleased at the idea of rewriting working code in a new language. Perhaps the sparse static analyzer could be enhanced to do more Rust-like checking, he said. Ojeda answered that the result of such efforts would be like having Rust — but much later.

> To be clear, I hope that training AI on copyrighted images remains legal, because it would cripple the field of AI text and image generation if it wasn't!

To be clear, there's no law banning training an AI. There are laws for what you can do with other people's stuff.

In short, maybe the AI field would indeed be crippled if they no longer freely take input from others without asking permission and/or offering compensation. And maybe that's far, far from a bad thing.

My company is being eaten again by another company that makes them a market leader and rather than compete for a new job in a much bigger tech department, I’m taking my stack of cash and finishing my engineering degree of which I have about 75 applicable credits toward. Fuck “development” as a career, that’s just a toolset now.

I’m still sticking around the old gig to support the legacy systems for 10 hours a week and keeping the channel open for the future, but I’m gonna sit back and watch the industry smolder for a bit.

The former, though likely still at a pretty low rate. These instabilities can result in mis-pairing at replication which results in a mutation in the replicated strand. Article suggests that this may be a significant source of mutations that was previously not considered.

Article says: We find it to be several orders of magnitude greater than the observed rate (10−8 per base pair) of spontaneous mutations through, for example, copying errors, suggesting that tautomerisation may well play an important role in point mutations.

The unemployment rate was at multi decade lows in 2019 but we did not have high inflation. We also had very low unemployment in the 90s and high labor participation rates and had relatively low 2-3% inflation.

We only saw high inflation after a year of worldwide Covid insanity, driven by cheap and abundant liquidity coupled with peak globalism (that is now in decline on an absolute basis, exacerbated by the Russia sanctions) coupled with global supply chain & labor shortages (some of which is generational demographics catching up to us)

In my experience, it's not even the framework that's the problem. Client-side rendered React is plenty fast for example. Not as fast as server-rendered (or even better, static) HTML, but fast enough (measured in a few hundreds of ms) that you won't notice the difference. It's generally things like loading lots of 3rd party scripts, or not paying to how many network roundtrips are required on the critical loading path which make it slow.

I despise this, the dissonance between a positivity-sounding "meets most" with the actual meaning being "pretty bad" is what I expect from the North Korean regime, or Russia. It's a disgusting type of newspeak/corporatespeak which, admittedly irrationally, boils my blood.
