Those other third party apps usually have a monetization scheme that's clearly separate from a need to steal your data or are open source which allows you to see if there's any weirdness or build it yourself. And I shouldn't need to mention that if it was found out that Firefox was uploading data from every page you read to their servers that there would be a massive reckoning.

Tell me, for the OGApp what is the monetization scheme? How do they intend to make money? By default if you don't see anything upfront you should assume that your data is what is being monetized. And your data in this case includes everything the app can pull down from Instagram while it's acting as a proxy.

Similarly and I keep mentioning this: Just because there's no current evidence of them stealing your data does not make them trustworthy. A site asking you for Steam login details would be almost impossible to prove that it's phishing for login details, but it would be a bad, bad idea to put in your login info anyways.

If they want their app to be trusted then it should be made open source.

This could certainly be entertaining. The trick will be for the studios to continue to brand it as recognizable, yet have it be unique. It begs to ask what part of the experience will be a shared experience since it could be radically different for all of us. Would we then share the story created for us with friends?

Yes, the "permanent workaround" is literally permanent, it works all the time while the jailbreak solution works only when the vulnerabilities are not patched by LG.

Right, that makes sense, if we talk about specifications in an informal way.

Basically, any implementation I declare as specification is now a specification (Michael Scott style, heh).

But not all specifications are also implementations (at least according to this video [1]). I don't fully understand yet what makes those specifications not implementations. Maybe I need to see more examples for formal specifications that are not implementations.

Just because we have data doesn't mean there's something useful we can glean from it.

What exactly is actionable from data telling us boomers prefer instant mashed potatoes?
I agree with this. It seemed so strange: The first half focused on doing everything from scratch and owning every line. The crash course on HTML and css was great, and the focus on it being a static site, hand-built in a text editor. Then, when it came to deployment, it was a 180 degree turn: Let's forget the details and rely on modern, magical black boxes like GitHub and Cloudflare! The opposite of owning your own destiny. Kind of jarring.

To be more in line with the first half of the article, I would have expected the author walk through registering a domain name, pointing it at your computer's IP address (or your VPS), getting an SSL certificate, configuring web server software on that computer, and so on.
You know, I honestly don’t care. It’s probably tens to hundreds of monkeys at the most, they’re probably pumped full of drugs so they don’t feel the pain during implantation and I’m sick of blocking any sort of progress in anything due to ethical concerns.

> Also, it is not unfair to ask questions considering people are donating money for this. Anyone who is donating money to both, to discover they may be the same entity, should be rightly upset.

Exactly, that's the point of a AMA (Ask Me Anything). You can literally ask them anything and as I presume you or others have paid / donated money to them and need to know what they are paying for or towards and who is doing it, for transparency purposes. That isn't doxxing, that's transparency (Especially if you paid or donated for this.)

Now, for 'transparency', name please?
Reading the paper, what's interesting is that they really build upon text-to-image models. Instead of generating 1 image with diffusion model, they generate 16, and then use several upsampling/interpolation methods to increase the resolution/framerate. For the text-image model, they use the DALL-E 2 architecture, so in theory just switching to a latent diffusion model (like stable diffusion) would boost training/inference cost of the model

The shortcoming is that, since they don't use any video/text annotation (just image/text pairs), complex temporal prompts would probably not work, something which require multiple steps like "a bear scoring a goal, then doing the Ronaldo celebration"

To be fair I used the word "should", as in I believe that it would be best practice, at least from the perspective of user experience, to operate below the OS. If that were the case, input switching wouldn't be dependent on the speed or reliability of the OS. As you point out, it's not strictly necessary if the OS is responsive enough and reliable enough to begin with.

Are you referring to "sha1 hash is not valid".into()?

This is a "not very useful name" because it is a very generic (and core) trait. https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/convert/trait.Into.html This is the standard interface for converting anything into anything.

The way this is often used relies on type-inference. In this case it is being used as `return Err("sha1 hash is not valid".into())` inside a function that returns `Result<(), Box<dyn Error>>`. This means that the expression is inferred to evaluate to a `Box<dyn Error>`. Luckily there is an implementation of the Into trait for &str to that type (https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/convert/trait.From.html#impl-F...). So `.into()` just does the right thing.

This is a less common use case but the most common one I see is:

let s: String = "foobar".into()

Which converts a &'static str to a String.
Agree! And it seems like this should be the easiest thing to train!

Let the AI generate random blender files.

Sure, I suppose if you granted it at the library level that might be good, but it's at the whole app level. You could maintain a very fine grained list of network URLs, though. That might be nice if you could configure in the `deno.config` file, rather than having to specify them all on the command line.

But this also gets at my "you have larger issues" comment. How is library code going to just start talking to a server? I like to review and audit all my dependencies and their changes, so it shouldn't just randomly happen. That's my whole problem with npm and its million dependencies and why I'm glad deno provides a standard library in the first place.
English is such a marvelously flexible language, and yet you've stretched it beyond common understanding still.

> For what paper scarcity is concerned...

> For what text amount... is concerned...

I don't think this construction works as well as you think it does.

If I can try to translate what you meant, I'd guess:

As far as paper scarcity goes, the foremost US publishers have already been publishing only "pulp fiction" for a long time, especially in contrast to publishers in other countries.

As far as text size goes, that's only an issue in some segments of the market. In some countries it's called "literature for evasion." For that matter, the biggest slice of the market in the USA is coloring books, but that stretches the definition of "books."

I don't even think I agree with most of what you said, but it wasn't until I tried to translate it into readable English that I knew that.
I may be mistaken but I believe that human/machine pairing was dominant for a long while, but the last few years the chess solvers have progressed to a point where they're dominant on their own.

Poker on the other hand I think human players still win vs GTO solvers, but again I may be mistaken here too.

They care because it is part of their business model. If you avoid tracking that affects their revenue.
Exactly this! I have the same lg oled and I love it. I don't think I've ever even seen the native ui (maybe when I first unboxed it?). I've never connected it to the internet, and don't ever plan on updating anything. What would a firmware update for a dumb monitor even do?

> The best chess seems to be when AI is used along with humans.

I don't think this is true anymore. I don't think I've heard about successful centaur chess games in years. I would love to be wrong there though (in particular if anyone knows about how correspondence chess games have been played in the last 2 or 3 years with the availability of Leela Zero and Stockfish NNUE).
So what? Have you ever seen memes before? This is social media, logos and signatures are very likely to be stripped before they get to your viewers.

No "useful" computation yet, but "yes", quantum hardware has been able to sample from some programmable convoluted contrived probability distributions from which classical computer can not sample efficiently. But that is irrelevant here because:

More importantly, FHE and post-quantum crypto are two completely orthogonal topics.

Homomorphic is the property that (classical or quantum) computation can be performed on the encrypted (classical or quantum) data without decrypting it. Homomorphic encryption with classical data on classical computers is rather difficult and fascinating. Homomorphic encryption on quantum computers is trivially easy (if you already have a standard scalable quantum computer, which do not exist yet).

"Post-quantum" is the property that a classical computer can efficiently perform encryption that can not be broken even by a quantum computer.

Russia and Germany have been at war for centuries. The last few decades when their economies became co-dependent was a blissful peace. Beware the long term consequences of buiding a new wall between them.
Exactly. The simulation theory proponents almost always seem to presume the existence of some sort of being that deliberately created the simulation. What if the simulation is a complete accident that has arisen from the complex interaction of brainless bacteria competing for scarce resources on the surface of a big rock? An accidental simulation emerging from randomly initialized 'cellular automata' on one rock in a host universe containing trillions of such rocks.

The usual presumption of the simulation being a deliberate construction of a conscious being makes the whole thing seem like nu-religion for people who reject supernatural things. With the presumption of a being deliberately creating the situation, you pull in these notions: We're special, we exist on purpose, we are probably being examined and judged. This reeks of religion.

> Complaints about 1-based indexing for arrays

...

> Using 1 as the initial position for an array makes sense when you’re talking like a human.

If the target audience for the scrips is non-programmers, then sure.

The place where I found Lua's 1-based indexing unacceptable was when Lua was being introduced at a past job as a secondary language. The problem here is that many different programmers would be infrequently modifying the Lua code. In those cases, you need as few gotchas as possible to make sure people are successful and deviating from what everyone is used to in that environment for indexing does not lead to success.
A long time. Much like self-driving cars, AI can take you 90% of the way there, but the last 10% is the difference between music that sort-of-seems-competent, and music that people will actually listen to and enjoy.

Your case sounds a bit extreme (perhaps it has an element of nocebo through overthinking it?), but I do share this problem to an extent.

If you like ambient music, I love Brian Eno’s ‘Reflection’ album and use it for a similar purpose as noise. But I eventually got sick of hearing it again and again, recognising the same bits... Then I found he has also released the original endless generator (from which the album is just an hour-long recording) as an iOS app. It’s wonderful. It’s just endless Reflection, never repeating, always sounding new, but always sounding like Reflection. Expensive but worth it, if you liked the hour-long recording.
> Poker on the other hand I think human players still win vs GTO solvers, but again I may be mistaken here too.

Also an outsider, but I think this has changed in the last year and that AI now is consistently better than top-tier humans at even no-limits poker.
Don't worry, humans will still be relevant for ~10 years!.

(and then regrettably irrelevant thereafter).

I think it is a legitimate worry, as the pace of progress is considerable. These tools are impressive, and are only going to get more impressive: more people should be talking about where this is headed.

I don't know if it'll help, but I've been using NextDNS [0] to block ads on my Roku TV (and general network-wide adblocking). In the NextDNS dashboard, there is a setting under Privacy > Native Tracking Protection that has an option to block Roku trackers. According to their source code [1], I think it just blocks logs.roku.com, but works for me.

Additionally, there was another Roku domain that I blocked at the router level that also helped (I think it was something like scribe.roku.com, but can't confirm until later today).

There is of course nuance required, but it's already acknowledged inside and out of Germany that the dependency on Russian gas / nordstream had an effect in bankrolling the aggression against Ukraine. Zelenskyy himself addressed the Bundestag and said as much.

I was just thinking about this for the long tail problem in recommendation engines for stuff like video games. I blame the algorithms themselves.

We're in a situation where the very best algorithms (like the one used by Netflix), doing exactly what they're designed to do, create inequality and the vacuous economy of influencers we have today. Look at Steam or any other marketplace: they're all the same, with 1% of the players getting 99% of the prizes. In a very real way, the only winning move is not to play.

I would suggest that this tendency of capitalism (economic evolution) is unstoppable, and that it must be attacked from a different angle. If we don't want to inevitably end up in late-stage capitalism that looks like neofeudalism, then there has to be some form of redistribution or people spend the entirety of their lives running the rat race to make rent. Traditionally that was high taxes on the winners, but UBI would probably work better. Unfortunately, the very same people who win are the ones most resistant to any notion of a level playing field or social safety net.

So I feel like there may be no solution coming. We're probably looking at long slow decline for the next 15 years or so until AI reaches a level where economics don't really make sense anymore, since economic systems by definition control the distribution of resources under scarcity. Without scarcity, they're pointless. And we moved into the age of artificial scarcity sometime after WWII, probably in the late 1960s, but certainly no later than 1990 with the fall of the USSR and the rise of straw man enemies like terrorism, using divisive politics as the primary means of controlling the population. Noam Chomsky saw this coming before most of us were born.

In other words, when anyone can wish for anything by turning sentences into 3D-printed manifestations of their dreams, then artificial scarcity quickly loses its luster. Because the systems of control around dependency no longer work. Then a new fear-based enemy comes along to fill the void, probably aliens. I wish I was joking.
> In what universe is this even remotely ethical OR rational?

I have to pay taxes for the maintenance of the road network. I don't own a car.

I have to pay taxes to bail out corrupt bankers, to rescue the economy they crashed. I have no mortgage.

I have to pay taxes to subsidize farmers. I am not a farmer.

I have to pay taxes for expensive cancer treatments. I don't have cancer.

You seem to be arguing that there should be no public provision of anything, that should be private companies, and taxes should be abolished. That's some kind of insane Ayn Rand-style philosophy.

It's obvious to me that any kind of public expenditure paid for from taxes is going to annoy someone; and some of the expenditure is either going to benefit me, or will be expenditure that I approve of. You win some, you lose some.
True. Just as not providing those meals doesn't fix that problem either, many temporary fixes get rejected on the reason that they don't address the underlying problems. True, they don't, but alleviating the effects has value as well.
