Honestly, as much as I am rooting for AI "art" (still not sure about that term here) I can see how Getty would easily have a claim in court if the AI was indeed trained on some of their images AND they can prove it somehow. If that's not derivative then I don't know what is. Maybe a special niche could be carved out for people who are only researching and experimenting and not really "selling" or profiting from the resulting images. It would seem if they're right that maybe they could bury a watermark in their images that identifies it as Getty (or just whomever) and that it's copyrighted by them and they don't give permission to use it for training AI. Maybe I just don't know enough about how the algorithms work though shrug
I think this would be fixed by allowing lawyers in legal cases to make 'unusual' requests (ie. that this be paid for by the new owner of the Hertz brand, not the original company). If the Jury agrees that it's a good plan, even if the ownership structure normally wouldn't mean that party has that liability, then the judge makes that order.

That could also cover cases like 'person X shields themselves with an LLP', or 'bob gave all his money away to Fred before declaring bankruptcy' (go after Fred instead).

It makes the law 'less strict' about exactly who needs to pay, and gives Jurys more room for whatever they think is 'fair'.

It's not. I've managed to do it in xrandr. I have my main screen (and thus all screens) rendered at 200% and then scale down the other 2 back down to 100. Basically how macOS does fractional scaling.

It's not real multi-DPI no but effectively it does work. Does require a pretty decent GPU to render all screens at 200% before it scales them down though.
Somewhat off-topic but the comments here and the supported devices list made me look into the Bangle.js 2, and at first glance, it looks awesome. Completely open and hackable, has GPS (which is the big thing lacking from the Pinetime) and less than £80?

Does anyone have one and how does it fare as a daily driver? Just wondering what's the catch!
It's literally how the Android calculator is, 0 button -> . button -> backspace button. No one ever complained about it.

Big time upvote for informing me systemd has timers.
I bet many of those audiophiles would either not tell the difference or love it if it was marketed accordingly.
The thing I was pointing towards was more that businesses are very, very good at making torts look accidental, because corporations are fundamentally emotionless.

But the limited investigative powers afforded to civil torts are also a really, really big hurdle to proving intent.
Meanwhile, cargo ships are out there carrying hundreds of thousands of tons. I don't want to be a naysayer, but ships will always have the luxury of the fact that water is denser than air. You can float a hell of a lot more on it. Plus, we have hundreds of years of infrastructure built to support it.

I'm having a hard time thinking of what the place of these air ships will be. I realize that large cargo ships can't go everywhere, but again, we already have things like rail that far outclass what these airships are claiming.
The floating bridge idea is pretty interesting. I will say that here in Seattle we have deep experience. We commute on what is known as the 520 bridge, known by the rest of the world as the Evergreen Point Floating Bridge[1]. It took close to 30 years and billions of dollars to reach 1.5 miles across the way. Conservatively it's something close to $3 billion per mile. Some of the pontoons still got cracked late in construction.

Submitting false statements to the court should be an offense that carries jail time - and it should be even harsher for agents of the government and law enforcement officers.

Yes, it's often used to dehumanize people. Sometimes it's just meant as a joke, but sometimes it's not.
The tips aren’t really a solution to this, because they don’t give you a general introduction and big-picture explanations about the system as a whole, and about the individual features in context. They are useful to inform you about the presence of a new feature when you’re already familiar with the software overall. Even then, they don’t go into any depth about the various aspects of the feature and how it interacts with other features and in different configurations, etc. In a good manual, you would get a whole short (or long) chapter about the feature.
It sounds like you didn't read the article. The problem is that despite good software practice, esoteric memory bugs are still an issue. If switching to Rust eliminates an entire class of bugs, the choice is obvious especially if you already have a competent development team.
You're asking for "the equation", but "the equation" does not exist. There are always multiple approximations, and the only ground truth is experiments (with messy data that does not exactly fit the equations) and the underlying quantum mechanics (which is difficult to simulate).

If you want something super accurate you can end up running a solid state physics simulation.

If you want to model a circuit in SPICE, you get to pick from like a dozen different models for transistors, depending on what you care about--including execution time for your simulation!

If you're designing a circuit, it might be easier to think of a transistor as an infinite gain transconductance amplifier, or something equally absurd--and yet useful. If you're designing for RF, then you have to abandon the lumped component model--there is no longer any such thing as a "wire", everything is instead connected by miniature antennas. Trying to teach this to freshmen EE students is insanity.

The problem here is that actual insight into how something works is not something that you should conflate with accuracy. The model you choose is something that mediates your understanding of reality. By choosing the right simplifying assumptions, you get something that provides you with the right balance of insight and accuracy. Over the years, people have come up with many models at different points on that tradeoff between insight and accuracy, which allow you to understand circuits and components in different ways. It would be wise to "stand on these shoulders of giants", so to speak, and use these high-value models that balance insight with accuracy, unless you are really interested in studying solid-state-physics in which case, by all means, go as far into the deep end as you want.

We still teach freshmen physics students that momentum is mass times velocity, or something like that, for the same reason. It doesn't make sense to explode someone's head with quantum physics and general relativity and then try to introduce Newtonian mechanics as a limiting case. Precious few students would survive.
Shitty customer service is pretty much the norm these days across all industries in my experience.

Even companies historically known for good customer service have realized its an unnecessary cost center. eg Amazon used to have great customer service at the click of a "Contact Us" link. Now you can still kinda get customer service but its 18 levels deep to contact someone who can do anything for you and 99.9% of the process of getting from realizing you need service to getting something done is a byzantine automated electronic process clearly designed to make people give up and go away to minimize actual customer service costs.

The US is definitely on the wrong track, but I think the more we think emulating China will “fix” things (especially under Xi), the worse things will get. Look at what we did with Covid. We had existing pandemic response strategies that were thrown out to mimic China, and we destroyed our economy, didn’t save anyone, and stunted child development. Sweden was much more rational and adhered to much saner western policies that we abandoned due to panic and false advertising from China.

There are things about China worthy of emulation, like how easy it is (or was, not sure if this is still true) to set up factories, the cultural emphasis on hard work and education, the stronger generational family support networks, the sense of unity and cooperation and trust in authority. But there are also severe problems that China doesn’t talk about, many of which are side effects of some of the same things that are admirable when moderated, and extremely dysfunctional when under poor leadership.

> synthetic meat that tastes as good as real meat

I think if the technology takes off there is no reason that it cannot exceed the finest cuts of real meat in terms of taste.
my experience has been mostly good. I used to work on a beat-up hp low-end laptop from 2012, on which I put arch w/ i3-gaps. It had only one issue, a driver that killed the laptop on any sudden acceleration (to protect the hdd write heads on the original machine, I'd put in a ssd). I found a way to disable it and otherwise had no issues, everything was pretty snappy considering the slow i3 cpu.
On my current 2020 razer blade, I've had to create a workaround script for the intel backlight driver not working properly (on boot it maxes out at 30% backlight, but cat 100 to the correct file and the full range is unlocked). I still don't know how to handle plugging in external screens (e.g. to give presentations) but that's an i3-gaps issue and not the laptop's fault, and the battery life is pretty abysmal since graphics switching from the nvidia gpu to the igpu seems to disable using the gpu for cuda workloads (for which the fix is to have the charger with me at all times).

I find it interesting that you think the downvotes are due to what they said versus how they said it.

It would've been very easy to make the same point while avoiding heated rhetoric by excluding phrases like "when they dared blaspheme any of the holy pharmaceutical companies".

That kind of language doesn't exactly encourage thoughtful discussion. Hence, downvotes.
I’d respectfully disagree. The courts have the last word, of course, but we don’t expect police officers to be unthinking automatons. “Round ’em all up and let the judge sort it out” doesn’t square with the Fourth Amendment.

A theft report isn’t a warrant. It might give an officer reasonable suspicion to stop the reported vehicle and detain its driver briefly to investigate, but to make an arrest, a higher standard must be met: the officer needs probable cause that the suspect has committed a crime.

If the driver claims to have rented the vehicle, I’d expect an officer at least to try to contact the rental car company to confirm the situation, or to ask his or her dispatcher to do so, especially now that the problem of false reports has become widely known.

Yeah, there’s no need to use boiling water. Hot water from the tap is plenty warm.
Every time a mugger is tackled and held down to the ground, that is a citizen’s arrest.

You obviously don’t know anything about the matter because any citizen, anywhere in the entire country, can subdue anyone they observe in the act of committing a felony.

Police are different in that they are empowered to arrest suspects they have not directly observed committing a felony though legal procedures.

What you suggested, forming a vigilante private police force and going around arresting people, is ludicrous and arguing with someone with such an absurd position will be fruitless so I can only suggest you reread my comment and examine the matter using other references more closely.
As an aside, the ability to stop yourself and know when to google something is what’s starting to separate the truly “smart” from everyone now - whether it’s coding, or general knowledge and discussions, or even when you’re just sitting in the toilet musing about some random question.

Especially in coding I see this as the major difference between a good and great engineer - google things at the right time to find the best solutions. You don’t have to build it all yourself.

It depends on the audiophile circle, but yes. There's a circle of folks that swear by single-ended triodes, class A operation, no feedback. I would love to hear a setup like that, but I haven't bought one (yet?), so I won't comment until I do.

iOS setup is personalized so your carrier shouldn’t be setting up anything for you. E.g when you startup you need to setup your faceid and other personal info, that a carrier can’t setup. The most a carrier can do is pre-configure the phone with a specific activation.

If they’re skipping that for users then they’re breaking the entire flow for transferring data , setting up payment and authentication etc…
for FOSS the reference implementation is co-created by the consumers of the software. the users will only accept a new release if it fits their functional needs and passes their verifications.

the Linux kernel, the toolchain, or libraries like ssl libs are co created by the very organisations that consume the software. FB, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, IBM with red hat, Suse, Oracle, SAP they all concrete the Linux kernel, and for each kernel release they validate, each of them, the technology.

that's how the reference implementation _is_ the standard.

same goes for rust, which brilliantly leverages build automation of the cargo package repository to protect the compiler and toolchain from regressions:

the more crates have sound test suites, the better the quality statement of the compiler is.

For the convenience of its massive reach for solving major national problems, the FBI has been allowed to grow far too large and influential. While I don't think disbanding it is the solution, it should definitely be split up into smaller, more focused parts where there's no upper management of unelected political players that exert massive influence the way they do now.
Looks very promising! My understanding is that Svelte has a similar approach. Would be amazing to have an alternative using just JSX.

Thanks a lot for the feedback. I am starting to get serious about learning the frontend side of things (coming from a backend/DevOps professional background). Especially the part of "React is a hot mess with so many ways to do all the things..." has made me prefer Svelte over React, and I really enjoy Svelte's idiomatic way of handling reactivity, I find it super intuitive. I guess I was just feeling insecure about putting so much time into Svelte, because I mostly only hear about people working with React.
From previous reading on the place, it seems a certain religious / ethnic sect used it (Persian refugees of Christian faith) and they perhaps used it based on their experience with having their assets seized by the Iranian regime before they fled. It’s a bit tricky since a number of the deposit boxes were directly connected to actual crimes but I believe that’s how they became popular in the first place.
This is fantastic, but I wonder how could I miss it in the old days. I had the full C64 reference manual and all I found was an audio in that could only turn on and off the incoming signal, which of course was a lot less fun than letting it through the SID filters; was it a different input? I'm not sure I used the DIN connector though, I probably interfaced to the user port; can't remember.
this seems like it could quite easily cause some extremely gross situations

Ah man, I'm sorry to hear that. No emails here yet, but not to say I'm not in the category one down yet (which is only slightly less bad).

I'm starting to worry about the general public's understanding of the ramifications of this. When it first broke, I was pretty upset, and my partner (well educated, and with me long enough to understand some things about breaches) thought my concerns and anger at optus was excessive. It's only after I explained to her in some detail a few scenarios of what could happen with the information, that she asked questions about what we should be doing.

I think we'll be seeing fallout from this for years to come.
Do you work with Svelte and SvelteKit professionally or primarily on side project? How do you deal with the breaking changes that have taking place within SvelteKit, i. e. SvelteKit still not being on a major stable version yet?

Show HN: HiSHtory: Your shell history in context, synced, and queryable
hiSHtory is a better shell history. It stores your shell history in context (what directory you ran the command it, whether it succeeded or failed, how long it took, etc). This is all stored locally and end-to-end encrypted for syncing to to all your other computers. All of this is easily queryable via the hishtory CLI. This means from your laptop, you can easily find that complex bash pipeline you wrote on your server, and see the context in which you ran it.
