I'm not a fan of comparisons like that because they don't account for cost or standard of living between counties, just raw exchange rates. It would be especially pronounced when including countries like India and Russia.
While this is likely true for this specific prompt, I think that cherry-picking a single prompt that DALL-E outperforms SD on is not super indicative of anything. I've conversely found a large number of prompts where SD outperforms DALL-E, either in aesthetic quality or just following directions! I think you'd really have to compare both of them across a large number of prompts of different types to be sure.

Custom OEM size/fit has been addressed to some degree for a quite a while now by both the "mainstream" car audio manufacturers [1] and, more extensively, by some lesser-known aftermarket brands [2].

YMMV based on just how old your car is and the type of OEM head unit, but there are kits (e.g. this one for a 2016+ Honda Civic [3]) that allow you to install "standard" head units with a fit/style similar to OEM.

All true. VC's in the UK only share the name of their US cousins. They invest in established business. They are full of the orthodoxy expected of a bunch of ex-big 4 accountants that went to expensive schools.

A startup in the UK is a son of a rich man who wants to set up doing whatever, and leverages their Old Boys network to get customers.

Banks are so risk averse that it is laughable.
The problem with Push Buttons is that they are (magnitudes!) cheaper than sometimes more suitable input devices like knobs, switches, etc.

This is why they are used everywhere.

Sometimes other electromechanical devices would have been the better choice tho.

They need to ban political ads, period. For good.
Depends on who the audience is. If you're writing a persuasive political message, you will have to have your fingerprint on it to generate the human reaction you want.

Although if we are at that point with AIs, it could also just be trying to game other AIs into interpreting writing into what you want before it's relayed to the individual.
Correct me if I'm wrong but the only things we can really do to combat this increasingly absurd breakdown of intellectual property law is to teach people how to safely and effectively pirate things, and raise awareness that the problem is copyright itself.

The only way I see this changing anytime is through a massive cultural shift in our views toward intellectual property, and I think the only way we can make that happen is by bringing it to the forefront of people's minds.

I'm not sure, but I think making piracy easy and appealing is essential to taking the wind out of the sails of the enormous entrenched interests that seek to lock down IP. Ultimately copyright is a tool that serves those who can buy up copyrights a whole lot more than it serves artists, and that fact is very corrosive to our society. Artists and creatives still need protection and support, but Disney and Amazon can go fuck themselves.

Basing our economic system in the digital world on artificial scarcity doesn't make any sense and artificial scarcity itself is morally incorrect.

P.S. Since people may ask if I have any concrete solutions. No, not really other than I think everyone would be better off if copyright and patents were limited to something sane like 10 years with no option to extend that time.
Alan Turing didn't die before 1900. Agree he isn't exactly relevant to the question of a modern tech sector, but these examples are at least interesting for what they show isn't the problem. A comment above AtomicOrbital's argues it's to do with a "deferential, hierarchical society" and that "bureaucracy is great for running an empire". That clearly can't be the case, given that Britain churned out computing pioneers when it was at the height of its imperial power.

I think the actual reasons are a lot simpler than some imputed aspect of the British national character. Obviously, struggling to compete with US tech supremacy isn't limited to the UK. Specifically:

1. Outside the USA there's no real culture of granting equity to early stage employees. Interestingly, ARM was one of the very few exceptions. Incentivized and passionate employees are considered non-negotiable for US startups, not so elsewhere.

2. The USA and California specifically has some laws that happen to be really good for founding successful internet startups e.g. banning non-competes, at will employment, the first amendment, and so on. UK and EU have the opposite: lots of laws that make it difficult or risky.

3. The USA benefits from a large internal market with homogenous language and timezones. When British computer companies tried to expand into the USA all kinds of logistical issues got in the way of them scaling up, both in the USA and Europe. It's much easier for a company to get big in the US and then start picking off local markets one by one.

The first two problems often combine. Try setting up an employee equity scheme for a new startup in Europe. You'll find the tax systems often make it absurdly complicated or even impossible, and accountancy/legal firms are usually inexperienced with it. I'm going through this problem right now. I asked for a US style straight equity vesting scheme - no options even - and got back some wacky alternative that involves buyback clauses, contractual promises to continue granting equity even after termination for cause and contains nonsensical statements. Justification is local tax law. Sigh.

Yes this has been known for a while.
Various research groups have been looking at computational methods for determining authorship attribution over the past thirty years. One of the more valuable applications has nothing to do with anything IARPA would care about.

Unless an author is rehashing the same content over multiple publications then there isn't much that can be done to attribute writing to the same source, and even then if it's publicly available then attributing it to a singular person is dubious.

A great way to freak people out though and potentially stifle freedom of speech.
Marjorie seems unaware that members of congress have staff. The staff would know what is in the bill and would inform their congress person about items that might be of concern. The quality of the staff work determines how well informed and effective a congressperson is.

In particular, the members of the appropriations committee have staff working on the bill, including the republican members. The republicans on the committee are:
Shelby (Vice Chair), McConnell, Collins, Murkowski, Graham, Blunt, Moran, Hoeven, Boozman, Capito, Kennedy, Hyde-Smith, Braun, Hagerty, and Rubio.

She writes "They did not tell us ahead of time, no one had any idea." ...

I would find it hard to believe that McConnell was unaware of what is in a 1.5 trillion dollar appropriations bill.

If Marjorie found out about this bill for the first time when the bill was published then it appears that her staff is not doing their job. Or perhaps it might help if she spent less time doing podcasts and more time with her staff on her committees.

Oh, wait... Marjorie HAS no committee assignments. It appears she has a lot of free time to cash her paycheck without doing any work. I believe the correct term is a "no-show job".

Wikipedia: A no-show job is a paid position that ostensibly requires the holder to perform duties, but for which no work, or even attendance, is actually expected. The awarding of no-show jobs is a form of political or corporate corruption. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No-show_job )

What this has to do with hacker news is unclear to me.
Can you elaborate? I'm not sure whether you're saying this model is a bad model or a good model? I'd lean towards negative, but how is job scheduling "virtually irreplacable"?
"What exactly does posting race and gender data accomplish exactly, specifically?"

Depends on what the data says and who you ask.

My own assumption, based on the exclusion of many data points, is that it will be used as political ammunition for further wage laws based on personal characteristics/identity. Perhaps along with that, it will catch some abusive employers, or prompt underpaid employees to quit.
I've owned at least six or seven. They wear out (I think only the first gen and DX had a replaceable battery), get broken, get lost. They are superseded by better models (front lighting on the Paperwhite was a game-changer).
That was intentional but it’s still a point about atmosphere and not game play.

Wanna buy my list of customers who let their subscriptions end?
I got early access months ago and have been loving it. I had so much fun thinking of stupid prompts with colleagues and their results hang randomly around the office. I made an effort to start making birthday/other holiday cards for my family using Dall-E by telling stories in an art style, like old oil paintings or pencil drawings, which has been a huge success. I'm sold, though I do agree the pricing is a tad steep especially considering the presence of competitors.
you ask that like you are challenging my idea of not ever using smart locks on my home. instead, you're bringing up another reason to support that decision.

so, which direction were you attempting to move the needle?
Anecdotal, but for one of my projects, Google Cloud / Compute Engine VMs cost around ~$5k a month all in. The exact same setup, when we moved it to LiquidWeb, cost us $2k.

Don't underestimate the savings that can be made from switching from a big-name cloud provider to a more old school hosting provider.
I have seen this attitude on HN before, and it really confuses me.

You know what an OS is, right? You can't just say, "the browser window is the only window" and say that "is" the OS. At some point some native code is going to need to send bits back and forth between hardware. You will need to provide a filesystem, you will need to provide device drivers, you will need to provide a windowing system, etc etc.

By the time you get from NAND to usable browser, you will have build an OS. Sure, I guess you could throw in a JS runtime and insist all user level software is in node/HTML/CSS, but there is still an OS underneath all that! (And the OS isn't why it's slow anyway.) There is so, so much more to computers than running JS and rendering HTML and CSS.
Very unlikely, and I don't know any Xcode that runs on iOS on mobile devices, so I said it was not a true Thompson Trojan.
That's a shitty way to live your life, especially in period when these things are doing mere baby steps. Glass is always half empty strategy.

Maybe you are uber-important, rich and powerful and you should be actually concerned about this. But chances are high (not only due to your nick 'pessimizer') that you are just making your own paranoia and depression worse for little more than nothing.

Self-censorship is very common in oppressed regimes, I've seen it damn well under soviet/russian oppression during cold era in my own country. Even people with good intentions do pretty horrible things desperately trying to not get any attention they don't want.
This has been the case for as long as people can remember. There's various tiers but it happens on all digital platforms. Steam, for example, will let you still download certain games if you bought them before they were delisted but others just entirely disappear.

My actionable advice to remote hiring managers:
vet your upwork guys really hard. Have them turn on webcam in every meeting you have.
If you enjoy shallow gameplay and storyline, have at it.

They promised a rpg where decisions would matter/dictate play and story. They don't.

Present a city with flying vehicles. Can't use em without installing a PC mod.

Give options for "hacking" abilities. Abilities are limited, unimaginative, and essentially give player "god mode" if focused on.

Gun play is kinda fun, just wish they were more imaginative in terms of body customizations, abilities, story, decision making, immersion, among other things.

Played it here and there for a couple weeks after launch and haven't picked it up since because it got boring and felt par to subpar. Things became repetitive and uninteresting pretty quickly.

Seen that they've fixed bugs since, but haven't heard much in terms of gameplay or features outside of mods

They would presumably shift advertising dollars to channels that don't constitute 'social media' under this law: TV, ecommerce sites, search, news sites, etc.
Even if Dall-E was free, the "safety" filters make it a non-starter for me. Its totally asinine to put any kind of content filters on a creativity tool.
I think consumer smart locks still let you use the regular lock if the power is out.
> I guess because people want it to be true since they're pissed at OpenAI for not being so open

This is honestly not my experience at all. When I first tried SD and MJ, I did so with a very clear and distinct feeling that they were "knock-off DALL-Es" and I strongly doubted that they would be able to produce anything on the level of DALL-E. Indeed, I believed this for my first couple hundred prompts, mostly because I didn't know how to properly prompt them.

After using them for around a month, I slowly realized that this was not the case, and in fact they were outperforming DALL-E for most of my normal usage. I have a bunch of prompts where SD and MJ produce absolutely beautiful and coherent artwork with extremely high consistency, that when sent to DALL-E, give significantly worse results.
Isn't it cheaper to just use cloudflare worker cron to do the same thing, with logs, history, custom hooks etc?

Also, without unknown resource cost after limits are reached.
Though as long as your 286 was 8MHz or greater, that speed would be the same on any 386 (or 486 lacking a VL or PCI bus), I don't think PCs with ISA running faster than 8.33MHz were common.

This is unsurprising.

The point of AWS is to be flexible. You’re paying for that. It’s easy to start. It’s easy to stop. It’s easy to change capacity.

Running your own servers is none of these things. But it is cheaper at sufficient scale. You can’t ignore the labor cost (particularly engineering) however.

Where AWS shines is with highly volatile workloads. With your own servers you have to provision for peak capacity. That’s less the case with AWS.

No shade on the author of course. It’s great to read things like this.
That sucks, I only have a Google Voice number.
I got a 10 year ARM back in march as it was 1.125% lower than a 30 year fixed. If I cannot get a good refinance in the first 7 years, I'll just focus on paying it off fully in the next 3. Worse comes to worse, I'm like 95% certain it will be worth at least what I paid for it in 10 years if I did need to sell it for any reason so I'm not worried at all.

For me the main difference I've found is that ebooks stripped of DRM tend to end up in EPUB form as the presumption is you're ensuring the books remain accessible on future platforms so you're going for an open and 'standard' format.

At which point it's then common to tidy up things like the book metadata (eg correct the genre or add a series identifier). That in turn means the DRM-free EPUB version becomes the better version, so the native and network-free support of side-loading EPUB books on the Kobo etc is a useful thing.
That's funny; this "cultural norm" only seems to exist when employees are concerned, while employers of course share your salary history widely and frequently. Equifax "The Work Number" boasts some 573 million records, of which they have leaked at least 170 million in the past. It seems you are getting played; markets, of course, profit from optimal information.
Yes, it's true, I've tried all the available models and DALL-E 2 outperforms Stable Diffusion. It understands prompts way better and SD sometimes just plainly ignores parts of your prompt or misinterprets them completely. SD cannot generate hands at all for example, they look more like appendage horrors from another dimension.

OTOH, the main limiting factor for DALL-E 2 from my point of view is the ultra-aggressive NSFW filter. It's so bad that many innocent prompts get stopped and you get the stern message that you'll be banned if you continue, even though sometimes you have no idea which part of the prompt even violated the rules.
Exactly. The BLS does report on pay discrepancies, and those reports use a huge number of characteristics and controls compared to this. Odd that they didn't want to use that as a template.
Right—that, but stick a big e-ink display above it. USB port and bluetooth so you can use an external keyboard (though a compact attached keyboard/stand isn't a bad idea, even if it's kinda a shitty keyboard).

Like this, but instead of printing your finished line to paper it "prints" to e-ink:

Yes thats true, however, it also means the baseline features till the lockdown were open sourced & are secured for public. Now they have to value add over those. this process is slow but surely moves more basic/hardened stuff to public domain so should reduce rent-seeking behavior. if nothing else it will make likes of adobe to keep shelling out cash to squash any existential risks like figma. I'll take that.

I'm pretty sure birthday week is the same time every year, although GA week is new. I guess that part could have been brought up to further drown out the KF drama, but it seems like a stretch to me. Pulling up general availability sounds a lot harder than the demos of birthday week.

Toss in pharmaceuticals while we're at it. Both are purchases that individuals should research from trusted sources, not "ask their doctor about" or decide based on gut instinct.

Note that the restriction period is not a ban on all ads, it's a period during which new ads will not be approved. From the article (emphasis mine):

The moment I get a whiff of AWS issues, that's basically a wrap on the day. I'm not going to spend my time wondering why something isn't working today because somewhere down the chain it is undoubtedly a silently failing AWS service driving me mad. The whole house of cards comes tumbling down and things stop working that Amazon will swear up down left and right are 100% healthy.

Sadly this has become a monthly occurrence at this point. Monoculture, it turns out, is a really really bad idea.
