You do not need books to learn how to think. Explore your own thoughts by challenging them. Those that make sense in your own reality go futher and research about them. Expand your awareness by observing the details of the context in question. Talk to people instead of reading. A Book is just a bunch of somebody's ideas trying to sell you what they even don't know if it is true or works. Instead of reading, start writing about your own experience about the world.

For what it's worth, I think it's all very impressive and amazing but also really sketchy. Or at least, I think the developers of these systems need to be very careful about what they are allowed to do with what content, and I don't trust that they are doing that, because of articles like this one and others.

People have debated this online and parsed the laws and so on. I think asking "What's wrong with working multiple jobs" is the wrong question. Whether you call it "wrong" or not depends on your perspective (employer vs. employee) and what assumptions you have about the obligations of employment.

Whether working two jobs without disclosing that to the employers breaks the law, or violates some moral principle, or whether you consider it right or wrong, and regardless of what you think you owe your employer or how much you deliver, you have to look at it pragmatically. Most employers don't want their employees working multiple jobs. You might get fired, and in some circumstances you may get sued.

If you want to work multiple jobs without getting in trouble, switch to freelancing. You will do the same work but as an independent contractor you can (almost) freely choose whom to work for, where, when, and how much. (I added "almost" because you have to avoid conflicts of interest or the appearance of disclosing proprietary information.)

Even if it is an expressive choice of the new artist, if enough of the original artist's expressive choice remains, it could still be a copyright violation. Fair use can sometimes be a defense, but there are a lot of factors that go into determining whether something is fair use.

Either this is a bad-faith comment or you don't understand the difference between how immune systems would attack cancerous tumors vs. how they would attack a coronavirus.

In the latter case, the virus is often not the same strain that the vaccine was created for and may have mutated defenses against immune response.
Here's a possible system: replace "random people" with "people with a solid track record of previous correct reports". When something gets reported, human moderators categorize it as either "correctly reported, and should be taken down", "incorrectly reported, but possibly a misunderstanding or a borderline case", or "a clearly bad-faith report against content that no reasonable person would actually believe breaks the rules". Keep track of how many reports from each user end up in each category.

If almost all of your reports are in the first category, then you're considered trusted, and if enough trusted users report a post, then it can be automatically removed before a human moderator sees it. If you haven't reported anything before, or too many of your reports are in the second category, then your report only helps to get the submission in front of a human moderator and doesn't directly contribute to it being removed. If more than a handful of your reports ever end up in the third category, you get banned for abusing the report system.
Thank you for all your hard work, amazing tool!
Any b2b solution you need to demonstrate to a user for them to understand it is going to be very tough and expensive to sell.

If a user is not actively looking for your solution because they don't know they have a problem, you're going to have to educate them which is quite expensive and not quite the right fit for a solo founder.
Nothing is wrong with this arrangement unless the two jobs conflict or require something that you can't provide. If they don't and you can deliver all that the job asks from you, you've found the perfect 2 remote jobs!

But really, don't go flaunting it because it's ridiculously easy for jobs to begin requiring things that disallow you to work 2 jobs, like a timesheet.
Really? It looks like some bad Warhol take on the Vermeer original.
How old are you? (I’m asking earnestly, not flippantly.)
I thought they said all public repos without regard to the license they are under, which could be a proprietary EULA.
Why? Obviously it wouldn't be a copyright violation because the original one is old enough to no longer by copyrighted. But other than age?

I like that they've started teaching difference between "fair" and "equal" in kindergarten now in Canada. This is not meant as a slight, just a generational gap - I myself was not taught that as a kid and it took me way too long to realize that "fair treatment" and "equal treatment" can be wildly different things.

Xcheck is, by definition, at its very core, not "equal treatment". Equal treatment is easy and uncontroversial to define.

It may or may not be "fair treatment". That is always subjective and depends on goals and objectives and frameworks.

Something like Xcheck may or may not be necessary. It's interesting to read about problem it's trying to solve and discuss whether and how much it succeeds and at what price and what limitations.

What Xcheck does not get to do, however, is present / defend itself as "equal treatment",and in any meaningful discussion we should not mix and match or treat those as synonyms - that's confusing and unproductive at best, deceptive at worst.

That's a team of cheap slackers who do just enough to keep the water running. It's against their interests to find more work for themselves. You may try to force them by adding personal liability for failures they neglected to prevent, but that's going to have the opposite effect: now only cheap and dumb slackers would sign up. The contract we're discussing is like the impossible ladder: it has many cool properties, but it can't exist in reality.
Possibly so. We do simple IO primarily from parquet or csv data, and I am working on the Apache Arrow/Flight package currently. Our data sets typically fit in RAM but either if you have enough RAM or a file amenable to memory mapping, you shouldn’t have a problem. J has a memory mapping utility. Numerical data is straightforward. We do ETL, QC, and normalization in J. Avoid transposes where you can, but reshapes are trivial and done with metadata, so fast. Overall what you describe sounds like a fun project to try in J.

> When you use Google to translate from English to Spanish, it’s not like the service has ever seen that particular sentence before.

But that is exactly how it works. Translation companies license (or produce) huge corpuses of common sentences across multiple languages that are either used directly or fed into a model.

Third party human translators are asked to assign rights to the translation company. https://support.google.com/translate/answer/2534530
>> I don't think the computational approach is an interesting question.

> Great, so we agree then!

Maybe? I think all forms of computation are equivalent, so if the brain is implemented in the same way as a neural network is uninteresting. They can do the same thing (which is interesting).

> yet we both agree we are not near general AI.

Sure. My disagreement is with the idea with your original statement:

"Translating ambiguous symbols to meaning and combining them in meaningful ways is a big deal which, apparently, these AI models cannot do. They can just parrot things."

Modern AI systems can do this, and do not just parrot things.

They are capable of novel outputs.

This is because the models have sufficient "understanding" to manipulate "things" (latent vector representations, which you call symbols) to output novel but meaningful outputs.
It may not be realistic, but it is conceivable.

The Road Not Taken by Harry Turtledove is a fun take on something like this concept.
> We could get the plant completion times down by committing to build more of them. Then all the large and specialized components would be built in more of a production manner rather than a bespoke manner, allowing for both cost and time savings.

If that's true then go for it (it never happened in the past -- costs increased exponentially even before three mile island), but don't ask for special treatment. Whatever deal you demand in terms of fast tracking environmental assessment, guaranteed loans, billions of dollars for free insurance, public resources for security and 40 year guaranteed price for generation should be available for anyone who can meet the 50g carbon intensity target, risk of major accident, and a minimum availability. If you need just two (or ten) more $13/W projects to get you started, then offer the same $30 billion guaranteed loan to tidal and see what happens.

On a level playing field noone in their right mind is going to choose to build nuclear.
64MB used to be a lot of memory even for Linux. It is fine unless you're trying to run very bloaty software like web browsers. I wrote a fairly substantial embedded app for a 64MB ARM board running some forerunner of Angstrom Linux, in CPython, that used around 20 threads to talk to different peripherals. It wasn't terribly short on memory. It felt like a mini server. It ran Emacs just fine, and Emacs was once jokingly called "Eight Megabytes And Constantly Swapping" because 8MB was in those days huge. 64MB leaves plenty of space for it.

The Raspberry Pi W is overpowered because it's basically a media processor. It's not for what we usually think of as embedded apps.

The difference between the Linux and RTOS versions of this Pine board seems to be the amount of on-board flash. But given the built-in MicroSD slot, maybe that doesn't matter and you can run Linux on both.
I thought the point was affordability? 1000$ isn't it.

> You can't reasonably demonstrate to either company that you aren't using their IP in the course of your work with the other.

As always, when in doubt consult a lawyer, but yes, yes you can. If you never contribute code to Cisco's switches, they can confidently say you haven't put HP's switch code into Cisco's switches.

Now neither of these is my area of expertise, but VoIP software and networking switch software sound uncomfortably close to me, and I'd be worried about causing problems there, but that has to do with the software having related needs, not the simple fact that both companies build switches. And as noted above that'd be verboten by my agreement, as it'd mean I'm working on software related to my employers business.

But even accepting your scenario as true at face value, it doesn't make it impossible to have two jobs in tech without causing conflicts. You specifically chose two tech companies with their fingers in a lot of pies. There are plenty of smaller companies that have no intersection.

Analogies are frequently weak tools because they are describing something inherently different from the primary object, and the conversation then comes to be merely about enumerating those differences. If there is a good argument to be made, it can usually be made directly, without having to resort to making an argument vicariously about something else and then having to argue why it is equivalent to the first thing in the context of the original argument.
> We let them get into debt they can't repay and then send them to jail instead, but functionally it amounts to the same thing, except for being harder to get out of.

These do not amount to the same thing: one is debt, and the other is an extension of the carceral system.

As best I can tell, cryptocurrencies do not eliminate individual debt. Rather, they provide myriad new ways for ordinary laypeople to leverage themselves into lifetimes of poverty. So it's not clear what this (true!) observation has to do with the conversation.
Very fast. Is the website static? Are you using a CDN?
The tool is already redistributing it.

A broadcaster of copyrighted works is not protected against infringement just because they expect viewers to only watch programming they own.
I don't have examples of people getting banned by banks/PayPal for legal activities using crypto, no. But that doesn't mean crypto-based solutions can't fill that void in the future. Note that I never claimed crypto is the "only way" to solve this issue. But, it's a promising alternative. Any centralized solution for these use-cases are tricky because they're niche and don't probably have the necessary scale. Not to mention, any centralized solution is always carries censorship risks. If you have a decentralized, usable, non-crypto alternatives for these cases, I'm open ears.
The tests aren’t weighted based on extrinsic factors. If you’re Black and take the SAT you don’t get extra points or more time. In fact, you’re much more likely to get more time if you’re an affluent white parson who has requested and received accommodations for ADHD, etc.
It's deceptively harder to interpret assembly nowadays with more and more niche instructions that may take hundreds of clock cycles to execute
In my view it's because often, when co-founders fall out, the company is either badly damaged or ends. This can happen early or after many years. So the requirement for a good co-founder is really high.

There's not necessarily anything to indicate that this critical relationship will be a success because anything can happen, even with the right co-founder.
I know much less programmers offended by copilot than artists offended by StableDiffusion.

This is a mostly irrelevant red herring setting up professions against each other. Instead we should cooperate on a costly yet necessary decision of instituting a basic income, especially prioritizing professions about to be superseded by modern ML.

Obviously, our decision-making class views the topic of instituting a realistic basic income right now as something extremely unpleasant, and so it goes.

People who helped to bootstrap the AI should be compensated, at the very least by being able to live a modest lifestyle without having to work. Simple as.
> To be fair, the Mac alternative at the time was "Don't do that."

Well, no. The Mac alternative to DOS TSRs that loaded in High Memory would be Desk Accessories.

>Introduced in 1984 as part of the operating system for the Apple Macintosh computer, a Desk Accessory (DA) was a piece of software written as a device driver, conforming to a particular programming model. The purpose of this model was to permit very small helper-type applications to be run concurrently with any other application on the system. This provided a small degree of multitasking on a system that initially did not have any other multitasking ability.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desk_accessory
What they are doing may or may not be necessary and practical. It may or may not be fair or right.

What it empathically is not, by definition, is "equal treatment". It's existence is epitome of unequal treatment.
> Non-competes are unenforceable in many places, such clauses can be nullified.

Many places being only California, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, and Oklahoma, and even there they're not entirely unenforceable. You'll still get fired, but you probably won't get sued. Maine, Maryland, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Washington have banned non-compete agreements only for low-wage workers. There earning more than $34K/yr and in the rest of the US, a contract is a contract, and violators will not only get fired, they're open to lawsuit for breach of contract, though I expect litigating an employee for breach of contract would be exceptional, say if the employee pilfered lucrative clients.

> I'd argue that it's unethical to put unenforceable terms into contracts in order to scare the signee into not doing something they might want to do, something that could better their family's lives, and something that's completely legal.

This is quite the straw man as noncompete contracts are always enforceable through termination with cause, and they are ubiquitous in standard boilerplate employment contracts.
I think it’s fine to agree to disagree on this. I’ll just say that hasn’t been my experience, and leave it at that. You don’t appear to be interested in other perspectives, so there’s not much point in continuing.
If you sing over a song you’re adding your own voice. If you photograph a building that’s your own photograph, where decisions like lighting and framing are creative choices. If you paint a picture of a building that’s your own picture.

An artist should credit when they are directly taking from another artist. Erasure poems don’t quite work if the poet runs around claiming they created the poem that was being erased.

But more importantly SD allows you to take and use existing copyright works and funny-launder them and pass them off as your own, even though you don’t own the rights to that work. This would be more akin to I take a photograph you made and sell it on a t shirt on red bubble. I don’t actually own the IP to do that with.
I suspect the J package Jd is probably the most non-trivial public codebase. I don’t love the coding style (functions are long and scripted) and it doesn’t make use of newer lambda functions (“direct definitions”) which are easier to read. https://github.com/jsoftware/data_jd
This tells the story of Eric Sun, who (among other things) built Facebook's knowledge graph. He got diagnosed with a brain tumor, quit tech, and decided to pursue his life-long dream of playing the violin.
Seems to me it's normal to be skeptical of unproven claims, especially when the only precedent didn't do the thing being claimed. Anything is possible, but there is certainly not any precedent at this point. I find it super weird when we see these "what's next for mRNA" articles, when it didn't actually solve a problem. It's almost like they were written right when the vaccines first came out and looked really promising, and then nobody followed up.

Cure one thing with mRNA, even one already solved like polio or something, and then maybe we can say it works and build on that. A failed covid vaccine is not really a milestone that supports further uses
In most newspapers there has been a section for letters to the editor. Those sections are moderated by editors. That is the reference, not some situation of random readers somehow publishing material, by posing as journalists on the newspaper's staff.

An updated version of that is the comments section for online stories.
Right, so who's going to do something about it? People seem to be complaining about it on Twitter but I'm not sure what the expected result is.
Ditto. (Hello age neighbor!)

It’s interesting we came to different conclusions on this one — I think there’s something here worth comparing notes on, but I’m not quite sure what it is. In my experience, working a consistent 7 hours every day will quite rapidly burn me out.

I think it’s the definition we’re using for “work.” When I work, I work hard, and I dedicate my entire mental focus on the task. Doing that for seven hours straight sometimes feels like a small marathon in itself. Perhaps you’re just more effective.
It used to be an issue for me too, but now it looks fine on Firefox for Android.

In this case, I think it's your third party app that has the issue, not HN.
I’m curious why you think any of this should be novel to the coronavirus COVID-19. We are affected by every infection.

There are a number of studies that show if you ask people about the long-term effects of any infection they will report similar numbers to what is being reported about coronavirus. You can take this to support the previous paragraph, or as an instance of placebo effect.

If you’re interested in how viral infection impacts brain function there’s a lot of cool information out there. I would not start in a speculative area like COVID-19. Maybe start with viral meningitis.

Alternatively if you want to stay speculative some people think that mutations related to our rapid evolutionary increase in brain size may have been in part down to zoonotic virus exposure a couple million years ago.

edit: Maybe you would enjoy The Tangled Tree by David Quammen.

I’m think the aesthetics argument would make more sense in a few years if this became an option built directly into cars instead of a bolt-on part like a normal plate.

But that requires this to be successful enough to be accepted in every state and have car companies want to build it in from enough demand/margin, etc.

Just like it's the person's responsibility to only recombine jpeg basis states when they don't correspond to a copyrighted image? It seems more and more to be the case that the trained model is, in large part, a very compact representation of the training data. I'm not seeing a difference between distributing a model that can be used to reconstruct the input images, as opposed to distributing jpeg basis states that can be used to reconstruct the original image.
