> We're supposed to be entering an age of automation

I like your usage of "supposed." I feel like I have been seeing "Automation will replace <insert entity> in <made-up unit of time>" for the past 15 years or more.

I can't even get Siri to work 95% of the time let alone have her and her virtual brethren overtake society. I do not doubt it's possible one day, but assuming I am average, I have about 40 or so years left on this planet, and I doubt I will see it in that time.

I'm not trying to discredit the wonder innovations and milestones we have achieved so far, but it's the new "flying cars" to me.
Which way is it when it's 6 o clock then? It could be either direction!

If I wake up from a stupor I wouldn't know if it's morning or nighttime.
It also did really well with the different skin tones of the Tuskegee Airmen:

It did not do so well with this grainy photo of soldiers w/ a captured German flag:

If you use the "vintage charm" filter it does a good job with the flag raising at Iwo Jima:

Absolutely no issue! I've only just come across your work and am astounded at both its breadth and depth.

I thought perhaps the page wasn't owned by you, and that someone had ripped it from subtitles or something similar.

The link for the article looks to have changed; before it was to a website that had text next to timestamps.
Further discussion is pointless. I gave enough facts...

And all other algorithms are known. Usually technical people communicate and not brazenly copy other people's ideas, as happened 4k HN topic or rr debugger Amjad startup fact. Let me remind you that he presented himself as "an investor" and was not even interested in the most complex technology in the world, but preferred to simply make a clone

I will remind you of a story. Once upon a time, Apple and Google entered into an agreement not to rehire employees. It existed for 6 months and since then we have been living in this new reality. W/o Steve Jobs and old rules. Okay?
No, I want to be able to switch between using it like a laptop and using it like a tablet (and writing on it with the pencil).
That was my initial read, but you may want to read their comment again. They expressed a way they prefer to listen in a conversation that’s closer to the article’s Wait culture than what you or I might object to in the article’s Interrupt culture.
Not with BAT. But Brave buys the BAT it gives users from the open market using their ad revenue, as far as I know. Which means the creators can sell the BAT for real money, which does pay bills.
ESLint complains if no `default` option on `switch` statements. Sometimes it's not possible. I have been trained to add it regardless. While developing, I add some message like "not possible" and sure enough it hits once in a while in dev due to something I didn't consider.
It’s still vandalism. The glaze has to be cleaned, removed, and reapplied, all done by a skilled person. It can’t just be thrown in the dishwasher.
Maybe try having them use a nice GUI tool like Sourceforge. That way they won't have to learn any commands, and everything will be in a clean graphical format.
The angry emails were always the most amusing - the “fbi has seized this domain” image is a fun one to use.
Agreed. https://github.com/OpenIPC looks promising in concept but obviously hasn't reached OpenWRT's level of success.

Depends on the tree. Younger trees capture carbon faster.
Today I was thinking of some sort of NN trained for colorizing photos, and then I get here and there's an AI right there...

This tool works really well. The text prompt helps, too. The suggested colors leak to surrounding objects (I forced a red skirt on a traditional costume I knew was probably red), but it looks really good.

Did you decolorize pictures originally in color in order to train the model?
> no, they don't, and this is the point: they are constantly refining every car model

Do you really believe what I meant is that Toyota ships one model, "The Toyota"?

> They are always fixing bugs in the active production line, working on new features

And people who do that are typically not described as "factory workers".

> Sure, but even a factory worker is different from a factory worker

They are the same in a sense that you can usually add more workers when you need to ship faster. Fred Brooks wrote a book explaining why the same mindset doesn't work in software.
As a habitual interrupter, this is one of my big fears when talking to non-interrupters. For me, frequent brief interruptions is how I follow along with what the other person is saying—otherwise it's almost certain I'll lose track. If I am not actively engaged in a conversation, I find it very difficult to retain anything from that conversation, so in a way, coming from me interruption is intended as a sign of respect, because it means I care about what you're saying and want to constantly check my understanding. I am always terrified that people will see it as rude or dismissive, because that's not at all how I intend it—it's just how I process new information.

Luckily, most people I interact with seem to not be put off by it, and I make an effort to make it obvious that my interjections are supposed to come across as encouraging. In situations where it's best for me to remain silent, I often struggle to keep from losing interest. My retention rate for Zoom calls is close to zero as a result!
It’s like a preachy vegan: makes it far too easy for lazy dismissals of the entire argument. Likely sets back the entire cause by making it too polarising, which really sucks.
Can confirm having seen Waymo vehicle's driving in my hood several times this past week. I'm concerned that Waymo will never be able to drive "the LA way" and ultimately cause congestion.

For example it's standard in LA that when the light turns yellow then two cars are able to make a left turn in time to not back up the perpendicular Lane.

Or if you are turning left you should try to make room on your right, so that those going straight can get around you. No way Waymo vehicles will be doing that.

All in all there are certain behaviors that are necessary in a city with traffic like LA that would certainly be outside the strict safety parameters that (I assume) Waymo operates under.
It’s not impossible. Portland’s Pioneer Courthouse Square used to be a two-story parking garage.

Furthermore how is your criterion for trolling formed such that implying to an absolute stranger that their mother’s grave should be destroyed, is not trolling?
Recycling metal isn’t a scam, especially aluminum where a surprisingly high percentage of the amount of aluminum ever produced is still in use and it can be recycled to a pristine state with much less energy than producing from ore.
This isn't a universal problem across America and even from a contradictory perspective it's certainly not an equally impactful problem across America. The inability to build and excessive costs of regulatory compliance when allowed to do so are very much blue team problems.
A life is also irreplaceable.
I mean why not. Remember this isn't a standard Word document John Doe is going to type his homework assignment in it's a whole different filetype for a different use case. Office got VBA functionality before Netscape or IE were even a thing so it has a valid excuse of why the default security restrictions came later - the internet wasn't really a threat model yet.
Pixel5 and bilingual user -> space bar is hacked by a language change option on long press (can;t deactivate this feature:( ), although there is ALSO a dedicated (optional) key for that that I have activated :(
Please also put variable names at the end of sentences when possible. For example, instead of "Your file /user/foo/bar.baz did not load correctly because of whales", how about "This file did not load correctly because of whales: /user/foo/bar.baz". The search is much easier.

I decided to go really old, so I tried "Valley of the Shadow of Death" from the 1850s where we get some red and blue cannonballs, but that's fine.

Can I just say, there's something so nice about this webpage. It's information-dense and well organised. I wish we had more of this today.
Generate automatic, translated captions for any video with Whisper AutoCaption
This repo has all the code for the project, which is based on Whisper and MoviePy. It has a version that can run in an IPython Notebook, and I have also released an application version compatible with Gradient Deployments. This was only my second time working on front end with HTML, so it's all still a little rudimentary for now.

The way it works is by first generating the translated speech to text values at labeled timestamps with Whisper. Then, MoviePy scales the captions to the size of the inputted video and overlays them at the (mostly) correct timeslots.

Thanks to OpenAI for the incredible free model.
I know what I hate the most. It is that while the author does start out with a good topic - "why don't people do intellectual curiosity and lifelong learning?" - they then somehow manage to promptly come to the very worst possible conclusion. They even cite the cause of the problem as a potential solution!

>a free market for universities–and more generally for education—where the consumers decide the value of a service [...] where students don’t pay upfront for their education, but afterward and only if they get a high paying job.

It's that attitude right there that is the very root of the problem! There are tons of fascinating topics people could study and would enjoy learning, but since everyone's so laser focused on that paycheck and getting a high paying job, they don't. Anything that doesn't serve that purpose gets cut. As if education is pointless, only job training matters. And only those profits from "skin in the game," never mind any actual education, learning, or intellectual curiosity.

It's really so incredibly backwards that I have a strong suspicion it might have been intended as a troll post.
Meanwhile, onerous California forestry regulation is reducing the management of wildfire through the virtue of not culling (thinning) the forest often enough, either in form of firelines or lumberjacking.

Love this too. Maybe destroying some art is just a jumping off point to something much more ambitious. Hey there, CIA! Don’t mind me, just some toothless cathartic venting.

It can download media. Especially useful for media of a higher quality than you can stream, otherwise high quality media wouldn’t even be accessible to many people.

Ofc installing Arcade games is another obvious use-case. I find it pretty trivial to fill up a 64gb and 128gb phone so I don’t see what’s so unbelievable about filling up an Apple TV with 4K media and games.
QT WebAssembly Example
They should be able to self-distribute and sign binaries with self-signed certificate. Not that it’s ideal, but should not hinder the development process.
I have written a (free OSS) Linux tool called `psn` for this kind of stuff [1]. It samples each interesting thread's state from /proc/PID/task/TID/status,wchan,syscall etc and shows you a summary of which threads were blocked in which state, in which syscalls and where in the kernel were they stuck (wchan). It can be used with applications like pv, tar, dd, mysqld, httpd, etc.

Thank you for pointing that out - yes, Pullman is one of the most famous examples but the issue was rampant during the Industrial Revolution.

I’ve had nothing but bad experiences with contractors. I had to do the exact same thing, while it wasn’t $900 it was $200-300 to have someone come out and replace a faucet. I ended up buying the tools and did it in ~20 minutes for like $20 in parts. I’ve done a lot of other projects and constantly get outrageous quotes from landscapers, plumbers, HVAC, etc.

My theory is that they prey on people that don’t know any better. Less and less people know how to DIY so they have no frame of reference for the real value of labor and get scammed.
Have you found any patterns to the people in these two groups? I find that older (50+) people are far more likely to get upset with my interruptions.

Yes, this is true. For instance, the periodic annual increment in a western Oregon douglas fir forest peaks around forty years, and if each year you average the annual growth of all preceding years, the mean annual increment peaks somewhere between 60 and 80 years depending on site class. I only mean to suggest that regrowing a 40 year old stand takes 40 years.
Certainly agree on there being "good" and "bad" interruptors. Being a jerk with the way you interrupt is never a good idea, and unfortunately the reputation of interruption in general as mode of communication has been sullied by such jerks.

I also agree with your analysis of us interrupters having a secret system—that's totally the case in my experience as well. I think a lot of it comes down to whether you instinctually view the act of interruption as inherently disrespectful or not.

That's just an odd statement since there are intrinsic differences in biology between the sexes. You can't ignore them. Heavy manual labor is typically a job for men because males have more body strength.

And until you can find a way for biological males to have a baby, biology is going to determine the role of childbearing.
okay well, let's discuss your three key features

- Mobile IDE: this is not something completely novel, there have been code editors for Android since forever. Replit created a mobile editor with a novel UI/UX and implemented their existing Goval Protocol (one I have studied extensively haha) into the application. Furthermore you can't claim the idea of a "Mobile IDE" can be stolen, its not a feature and that's like saying "Mobile Notes" can be a stolen concept. Not copying you so far.

- Real-Time Reverse Debugger: Replit uses Replay.io for time travel debugging, I've been around to watch that implementation grow. Amjad invests in Replay.io because Replit uses it xD. Replay.io has existed for some time, and on the topic of why Amjad didn't invest in you - you didn't present well (no offense). He's a busy man and your product didn't strike him immediately, that's okay move on the the next investor.

- Full git and video history: I might not be interpreting this one correctly so I'm sorry if i get this wrong, but version control has existed for some time. You can't say version control in IDEs is novel, everything from Atom and VSC to Jetbrains IDEs use it.

and the other thing you mentioned:

- Team Development: Replit is literally the frontiers person when it comes to live code editing and multiplayer. You cannot say this was copied they had this long before you started developing in 2020.

---

When you say "I just show Amjad the direction, and he completely ignored me" I'm sorry but not really, the concept of a Replit App has been in the works for some time, you just have to keep in mind Replit is a startup and its moving and hiring at its own pace. As I said before, Amjad might not have invested in you because you didn't present well. The opportunity was lost, its okay move on. You were building an existing product in a new world, but the big dog arrived.

I can't say I understand what it would feel like to have a project I've been developing for two years suddenly be thrown into the shadows because a bigger company came by with their product, but I know it doesn't justify Russophobia. I'm aware of the situation in Ukraine, but you don't need to drag politics and slander into HN for the sake of besmirching someone. Your comments draw too eerie a similarity with antisemitism in Nazi Germany. If you are going to continue defending your product and this idea that it was stolen, at least drop the politics they're unjustified.

As others have said, California is an ecosystem used to fires. It's integral to their function. Repressed burning by following a European style of land management has led to this issue becoming exacerbated and combined with the shifting climate, what we're calling the mega drought, leading to mega fires.

I find the gtoolkit interface a little clunky in a way I can't quite describe but the core ideas are fascinating:

- if you're looking at a compiled method it's trivial to switch between different representations: you can easily look at the original source or the AST or the bytecode. It's also easy to write your own representations.

- the same applies to all other objects: it's easy to write views which let you query and visualize your application's object graph in the ways which are most useful to you

This sounds a lot like the lisp pitch: While you write your application you're also writing the tools which make it easy to write and debug your application. In Lisp you do this through molding the language; in GToolkit you do this through molding the IDE.

Vandals and thieves, if it's their first offense, sure, fines and community service are fine. If they're repeat offenders then they need to be locked up.

For the "deranged", I prefer imprisonment for at least two reasons:

1. They may have friends/relatives who would be harmed by them no longer existing. Why punish them?

2. Death is too easy an 'out'. If I had no other tether to society, then choosing a peaceful sleep vs a daily reminder of my actions is an easy choice; put me to sleep.
I omitted a key bit of context:

> Given that Justices are permitted to, and frequently do, interrupt advocates, Scalia’s interruption was a breach of that norm, prioritizing both the advocate’s response and his own interest above that of Sotomayor’s inquiry. The effect of this breach was that Sotomayor’s question went unaddressed, as Rein instead responded to Scalia’s demands. One may look at the significant discrepancies in seniority and ideology between Scalia and Sotomayor, however, and surmise that the interruption could be the effect of such differences.
