Ironically, your comment also sounds arrogant and condescending.

The AI safety crowd's main concern isn't that an "unaligned" superintelligence will have some other people's values. It's that an unaligned AI might kill everyone.

Of course, that isn't a concern with DALL-E. It's like if the safety crowd was worried about a ferocious tiger and OpenAI was like, "we got a kitten. Let's keep the public safe from it while we develop better kitten-handling gloves."

Then Midjourney and Stable Diffusion get their own kittens and let everyone play with them and OpenAI finally says, "Okay, everyone can safely play with our kitten now because we carefully developed great kitten-handling gloves" and proceeds to hand you plain dollar store gloves.

Anecdotally, that sounds about right. However, FB claims to have ~2.9 billion monthly active users, and countries like the UK and India have significantly more active users than in the US or Canada, so your experience on FB is largely dependent on how active your network actually is.

Not to beat the bar analogy further to death than it already is, but the last bar I went to had TVs on every wall... no matter where you looked or who you were looking at, there was a TV within your peripheral vision just waiting to display a flashy ad that would draw your attention.

In any case, I hate the social experience at bars and on FB equally, so I generally choose to socialize elsewhere, and don't have to deal with the ads either way.

If this company is fined a large a amount of money or goes out of business because of those fines; executives will be fine as they often have a diversified portfolio, savings, and friends. However, to make up that loss they could raise prices or fire employees.
I'm expecting other projects to try to do the same thing, and a large first-mover advantage. "Two months" was just a vague number thrown out: VRChat banned mods in July, that's two months ago, and I think a first prototype that zeroes in on the VRChat niche is viable after four months of work, especially if one is pivoting from an existing codebase.

I'm not saying "you should focus on VR", I'm saying "if then, else then." The value proposition for social 3D chat on desktop is just not there, IMO.
Good luck. There's so much good stuff here, it's so basic, but there is such a vast chasm to cross.

#1 task: making every single RDF spec also have JSON-LD encodings. That's literally it. Stop using RDF. Use the equivalent but developer friendly standard.

(Personally, I really like RDFa, because it enriches HTML elements rather than serving as a data-island. But for specs, JSON-LD is the obvious encoding that developers speak!)
It is the same process, but variance in execution would get you different tastes, as in time and pressure variances compared to an esspresso machine. Moka ppts are also not very uniform in their execution. Heated water is forced through a cup of grounds at high pressure though, just like an espresso machine. Pour over is a very different process to espresso, though it might suit your preference compared to what you get from your Moka pot.
It should be up to me whether or not I keep my wages secret (and if I don't, with whom I choose to share them).
This has been discussed previously and one of the major issues is that many devices require internet connectivity to complete initial setup before they can be used.

I tried a windows ext2 filesystem driver once. It killed the drive after a few days, presumably from wildly moving the read head without any intelligent sequential movement scheduling.
Every time this kind of thing happens I just remember how much bigger Twitter got with the help of third-party clients, and then implemented terrible login token limits to prevent any from becoming as good as their own offerings once traction picked up.
Other countries are literally reducing road space that is exclusively for car use and building protected bike lanes and pedestrian spaces where such road users cannot be killed by cars.

The USA is likely not to the same degree. (Certainly not at the pace of Paris, which has changed remarkably)

This is the simple, dull solution. Cars inevitably kill other road users because they’re fundamentally unsafe. Remove cars from having any possible interaction with other road users and deaths go down. It’s that simple.

Well, if valid uses for clients are outlawed then the only people buying clients will be the ones trying to abuse the system. So really all the policy does is change the market.
Rule of three: if someone asks the same question or protocols three times, then they should document it.

"often does not respond or respond by just doing the work in place of the other engineers (rainchecking the problem)."

This suggests that the documentation takes longer to write than the solution.

Documentation isn't always as helpful as many people think. It gets out of date unless maintained and can be worse than reading the code. Someone can sit and think for three hours how to explain it to someone else. Or they can just change code in a bunch of places

The solution we use is that everyone is expected to read the code. We ask when something can't be found, or ask the why. It's usually easy to say "oh that code is in the X module, not Y" rather than dig up actual specs and making sure it's correct.

If it's something like an API guy blocking a FE guy, FE should start reading API code.

If this is a recurring problem, hire a systems analyst, whose dedicated role is to answer such questions, handle code reviews, be mentally up to date with all changes and basically act as living documentation.

If the Vedas oral tradition "led directly to complex story-telling literature," you may have a fair point, but with only the example of the Vedas having a complex oral tradition, this (as a candidate for counter-example) isn't exactly clear. But I'm almost certain there's tons of complex stories in mine and especially in other cultures of which I am not aware. If there wasn't, maybe I could give you a hand.
If Optus have said that, they're lying. Data retention laws do not require you to hold identity documents. At any rate, data retention requirements do not excuse poor security.
"During the third quarter of 2021, the average global adblocking rate was estimated at 37 percent. Vietnam and China were top of the class, with a respective adblocking penetration rates of 44.7 and 43.7 percent. This was followed by 41.7 percent of surveyed Indonesians and 40.4 percent of surveyed South Africans admitting to using software blocking online advertising. In the United States, 34.2 percent of internet users said they used adblockers."

Agreed about antitrust enforcement, Instagrams marriage to Facebook should have never been allowed to proceed. At some point we let “free market” supersede a market with competition. When you become large enough that you can leverage non-tangible assets to borrow enough money to buy out all your threatening competition. Or when you become large enough that you can secure patents for every little obvious development, original or not, and litigate every potential competitor out of existence. At that point I don’t think it’s a free market. Throw in some lobbying, protectionists policies, and now you have a captured market.

Your connection could be limited to receiving ads and firmware updates, incredibly slow,and be limited to a key stored in hardware both near impossible to retrieve and nearly worthless if you retrieved it. This connection would only be used if a primary connection was unavailable.

You could basically use 10MB per 10 customers per year and the only question is do you make more ensuring everyone gets ads to justify the peanuts paid to people like comcast or at worst the cost of a chip that has a cellular modem vs just wifi.

Honestly, not going to read the article. It's very frustrating how mental health patients are treated. Knowing what I know about the system, for you to even have heard about it, and there being an investigation, there has to be some incredibly serious issues.

This is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to doctoral abuse. Just like with police abuse, there is day to day abuse, and sometimes it can be tough to distinguish from normal activity. This is happening constantly and in a varying degree by a huge percentage of doctors (maybe most to all).

It really seems to me that discourse on this subject is being heavily suppressed. The exact reasons aren't clear and may vary. I've seen it on reddit, as well as a bizarre trend of police manipulation which is extreme on the site. It's talked about, but not in serious enough circles, as a existential threat to the platform.
Unless you're a monopoly and then you can do whatever you want because your customers have no alternative. Which Meta is (well, it's a duopoly with Google).

Anyway Meta's customers, and the only entities it cares about, are large ad buyers. None of them will give a crap about this random app and these random human beings getting banned. This has zero impact on their ability to continue writing checks to Meta and continue getting in front of your eyeballs.

If anything Meta's customers will be happy about the ban since this app caused fewer people to see their ads.
I'm not talking about "tunnel tombs." I'm talking about the mortuary chapel probably used during the Sed festival in life and where offerings were made after death. In earlier royal mastaba burials, there was a unsealed portion of the tomb used for these purposes. With pyramid burials, the mortuary temple outside the pyramid served the same purposes as the unsealed portions of the mastabas.

A simpler explanation for why the Pyramids of Giza were not usurped: By the time royals began routinely usurping earlier royal tombs (late New Kingdom/early Third Intermediate Period), the pyramids and mastabas of the Old Kingdom were long out of fashion as burial sites.

Yup! As a Twitter user since 2007 I've watched as 3rd party clients were superior by far (TweetDeck was still my favorite), and have now been left in the dust as Twitter leaves them for dead by cutting off API features to them. Twitter itself has never made a client as good as TweetDeck or TweetBot, and invariably never will.
Meta doesn’t have the ability to monitor its users’ computers to see if any of them end up having data sent to a server.
He's saying that a coal plant is permitted to (and actually does) release more radiation than a nuclear plant is.

Either tighten the standards for coal, or loosen them for nuclear, but the current situation is not logical.
Why should 3rd parties be allowed to make unauthorized api requests?

Additionally, some apps are only monetized through advertisement, and 3rd party apps don't display them. How do you expect the 1st party to stay in business?

I don't align with Meta on a lot of issues, but they should be able to control what apps interact with their platform. Don't like it, don't use it.

Femtech and Privacy in a Post-Roe America
It's what happens when a country dismisses a proper national ID number/card -- the nearest available substitute gets used, sometimes regardless of how well the substitute works as an ID. The United States Social Security card/number comes to mind as a particularly egregious example, though I'd also consider drivers' licences (as is common in Australia) to also be a bad substitute.
It's much cheaper to make a computer check the number than pay the post office to sight and verify ID docs.
Chomsky: US Must Join Global Call for Negotiations as Russia Escalates Actions
People get frustrated with progress bars too but that's kind of orthogonal to what I am saying. HDD thrashing around is not the problem with the feedback mechanism (that's working just fine), but the underlying equipment has failed. Progress bars are notoriously annoying when they just don't move! Don't hate the progress bar, blame the equipment. I know there are some fake progress bars out there...just shows that giving feedback is so important that people fake it even!
That's certainly fishy but it doesn't rule out other methods that rely on statistics. For example, how many other people have visited that apartment and within a few hours searched for window grills and latches? Perhaps all of them.

Still, use Signal is the answer. The more people that use it, the more people will use it and the less we'll have to worry about whether messaging apps owned by ad companies are e2e.

Being predictable is good advice, but I don't think that's the point. The reality is you're never gonna get people to behave predictably 100% of the time. And even in a perfect world where everybody was acting predictably, accidents would probably still happen on the Hempstead Turnpike. The real issue is planning and designing roads in a way that's safe for everyone, not just cars.
CarPlay for rent car is really important because it don't need to learn car original system, and needs navigation than daily use.
Nice, I definitely think Firefox is doing it the right way.

Opps yeah, was mixing it up with CERN in general. All the work on WWW and earlier hypertext there wasn't just for early LHC planning stuff but it has been a noted thing:

> Should China build the Great Collider?

> Stephen Hawking and Gordon Kane 2018

> [...]

> This has shown up in the past from the LHC in a number of well documented areas, including inventing the World Wide Web with its huge impact on economies world-wide and then grid computing. Someone said imagine that CERN (where the World Wide Web was invented for particle physics) had one penny for each use, then particle physics would have all the funding it could use. More industries include magnet technology
and superconducting wire technology, a multi-billion dollar accelerator industry, a multi-billion dollar imaging industry that owes its existence to the development of particle physics detectors, other billion dollar industries, and many tangible benefits. Such technologies generate revenues far exceeding the investment for collider construction.

> Arguably the third industrial revolution was triggered by the invention of the World Wide Web at CERN. The requirements for data acquisition and storage and access, and the materials and technologies needed for CEPC and SPPC could help lead to the fourth industrial revolution. For the first decades of the third industrial revolution High Energy Physics led, and only in recent years industry has overtaken HEP. History may repeat itself for the fourth.

An app downloading data on behalf of the user is basically what Cambridge Analytica was doing.

The problem is that data ownership is complicated. If I know your phone number, can I share it with other people? That was CA (me downloading data about all my friends). Here the issue is private messages — is it okay for me to share the messages you sent privately to me? A lot of people will get quite upset if you do that!
Love the channel. The Toronto Islands seem like an attractive place to live. With a population of only ~700 and a (full) waiting list capped at 500 it's clearly in high demand, which makes it all the more strange to me that more developers aren't building places like these.

I mean, I can't be the only one who is willing to pay 2-3x more to live in a neighborhood with no cars.

What The OG App did was the equivalent of building and distributing a third-party telephone, rather than everyone having to use one rented from Ma Bell.
I used to get some significant interference from my mp3-player/headphones when my cellphone was about to go off. "2G" (not sure they called it that at the time) interference actually had a pretty good tune to it. da-Da-da da-Da-da da-Da-da daaaaaa.
There was a time when they used to charge 14cents a text message. They should have plenty of cash.
It's not just trailing digits, if you don't have a call button (like a traditional home phone, push button, or rotary) you need to know when the dialing has finished so that you can make the cell call
Yes, I trust plenty of software and I'm not suggesting that extensions are bad in theory. Extensions being able to silently inject code and ownership to change at any time is a pretty bad security model. We can agree that there are _bad_ security models, right?

It's the sum of the parts in changes from manifest V2:

- no arbitrary code injection via executeScript, must be a file now

- no more remote code

- no more arbitrarily getting selected text or highlighted text on a tab

- declarativeNetRequest instead of intercepting requests

- explicit listeners on the page to help detect bad actors (vs just arbitrary JS running on the page)

Ok, that’s fair, but how should the platform be compensated for the resources expended by the users or developers in question?

Would you be ok with a usage plan? Something like $1 per 10,000 tweets read? I mean, the developer could save money by caching the most popular tweets and serving them from their cache, I imagine they’d have to charge for that infrastructure though and somehow they would pass the costs into the user. Maybe the could offer a monthly plan, with some kind of fixed cost that would keep most users fed with tweets while also not making uses worry about usage based billing.

Maybe Twitter/Insta/whatever could just require you to have a paid plan to use 3rd party clients?
> I awkwardly asked the one with the pierced eyebrow whether her piercing had a “meaning.” She smirked a little. “Self-expression,” she said. “But what does it express?” I asked, entirely in earnest. She repeated herself very slowly, as if to a total doofus, “Self. Expression.”

> I thought that I’d eventually understand what she meant, but even now I’m not sure I do.

There's a strong smell of anti-intellectualism here.

If the author truly doesn't understand the meaning of a pierced eyebrow, then the logical first course of action would be to assign no meaning to a pierced eyebrow and see where that takes them.

I.e., a pierced eyebrow gets added to the set of socially meaningless decisions and physical attributes: which hand you scratch your nose with, the exact curvature of your ballcap, which direction your belt goes, and so forth.

Armed with this new meaninglessness, the author can eat the cost of the pain of an eyebrow piercing and test out its ostensible meaninglessness.

Cue the article about the subjective experience of receiving different treatment based on said piercing, and the emotions that follow.

Thus, we return to the girl who responded "self-expression" as a short hand for noticing the way pierced-eyebrow people interacted and desiring the subjective experience of being part of that group (plus perhaps the visceral sensations of getting a piercing, touching it, looking at it in the mirror, etc.).

I'm not sure this needs an entire horse-and-buggy trip through 19th-century Europe to comprehend...
Companies exist to limit the liability of shareholders / investors, not principals. The idea is that you can buy equity and receive dividends if the company goes well, without standing to lose more than you put in if the company harms others through mismanagement. The company doesn't shield the directors from personal liability for that mismanagement as a matter of law, it just pays for high quality legal representation if the allegation is made.
