It's a false choice.

If your customers are somewhere, you could be there too, and that often has the least amount of friction or is the easiest choice, so it's understandable why so many people elect to do it. But another thing you could do is bring them to where you are.
There is also the option that MS claims: Copilot may be perfectly fine as it is, BUT you may not be allowed to distribute (or even use internally) code it generates for you.

This is what the current terms of service of Copilot say: you as the user are responsible for ensuring you are not breaking anyone's copyright when you accept an auto-completion from Copilot. How you would know that it just spit out someone else's code is unspecified, of course.

Of course, similar tools that make it easy to infringe others' copyright are less accepted when they don't come from corporate behemoths (cough Popcorn Time cough), but such is the world we live: copyright protection for me but not for thee.

IDK but the title reminds me of TimeWarp OS

This paper describes the Time Warp Operating System, under development for three years at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory for the Caltech Mark III Hypercube multi-processor. Its primary goal is concurrent execution of large, irregular discrete event simulations at maximum speed. It also supports any other distributed applications that are synchronized by virtual time.

The Time Warp Operating System includes a complete implementation of the Time Warp mechanism, and is a substantial departure from conventional operating systems in that it performs synchronization by a general distributed process rollback mechanism. The use of general rollback forces a rethinking of many aspects of operating system design, including programming interface, scheduling, message routing and queueing, storage management, flow control, and commitment.

Prioritising Features: Who'll Use It and How Often? (2012)
You don’t really sound like someone with ADHD to me. You sound like someone who is smart and gets bored with easy tasks. I’ve worked with kids with clinical ADHD and it is very obvious to everyone involved.

HN (and probably the Bay Area which usually is reflected here) has become a weird echo chamber of nerds all claiming they think they have ADHD. When really, it’s that smart people get bored very easily. And most of what we do in our jobs are boring. Of course, stimulants help with this - why do you think we all drink so much coffee. Prescription stims are even better and are well tolerated. The right western doc will happily diagnose and prescribe for ADHD regardless of the severity.

I know ADHD is a spectrum, but I believe that diagnosis is only really warranted for those truly clinical - people who literally cannot hold any job at all and would be homeless otherwise. I guess there is the argument we should all just be allowed to take whatever drug we want and there is certainly merit to that.

Even the most productive coders, writers, musicians etc talk about their struggles to stay focused. It takes grit and intense self discipline to sit for 8 hrs doing work that isn’t immediately satisfying. Most people can’t do this, it’s not abnormal. People goof off at work all the time in most jobs, because they can’t hold their attention for so long.
> Code is only hard to figure out if you don't understand the business goals.

Ah right, so when an architecture astronaut picks up the GoF Design Patterns book and creates a rube goldberg architecture with an interface for every. single. class., it's not going to be understandable because folks didn't understand the business goals.

Hi there ; I'm the author of the talk linked in the article.

Technically you're not missing anything: htmx is nothing more than another turbolinks, maybe more flexible and easier to learn.

What you might be missing is the non-technical implications of these new tools. The idea behind the talk (and behind htmx, and behind turbolinks, or unpoly) is to prove that the usual arguments for Javascript application frameworks are just not valid for 90% of use cases. And *that's* a complete game-changer, even an industry-changer.

Because since 2016, every small-and-not-super-rich company that wants to create a rich UX on the web is told to hire at least 2 developers: one "front-end" (i.e. "JS"), and one "backend-end" (i.e. everything else, from API to hosting through domain stuff and user data). Or one superman with both back-end and React skills, which is, IMO, almost impossible.

From what I've seen, what businesses need is, indeed, 2 devs: one "back-end" (i.e. workers, databases, user data, domain stuff, and even hosting), and one "front-end" (i.e. "the website", from DB queries to CSS). One person should be enough to address this second scope, even with complex UIs and rich UX. And as this is almost impossible with Javascript application frameworks (because they require a lot of work), it becomes possible again, like in 2008, with htmx/hotwired/unpoly (and without the spaghetti code we had in 2008).

One more thing: of course the idea was *never* to do JS-bashing, only people who are too tied to Javascript and not caring about tech cost-effectiveness would see htmx as a thing for JS-haters. In my talk I actually show some Javascript code, because it's useful for handling client-side-only stuff like a custom dropdown, a modal, etc. The whole idea is to put Javascript back at its place: pure client-side advanced interactions.

I'm not going to say it was life changing, but it is stress that is now gone. Would highly recommend to anyone that has higher stress levels, it's possible SOME of it is coming from your social media use. In my case, it was work that was the big cause, but, removing myself from social media resulted in a noticeable improvement.
I think the solution is opt-in curation.

If someone (or 10k someones) watches and compiles quality items of interest, maybe i want one of those feeds INSTEAD of Twitter’s ML algorithm.

Twitter can still monetize but now curations could monetize individually via including specific ad tweets.

And i want to subscribe to multiple curations, not just one.

Twitter could even have their own ML algorithm as a curation but I want it to be explicit opt in.

You could browse curations by popularity or topic and opt in to the ones you like, or opt out if you don’t like one anymore.

Trolls wouldn’t get included in curations that anyone cared about.

The down side is that it magnifies the social media echo chamber effect, but it also makes everyone’s feed more personally relevant.

Code which is publicly viewable but available under a license which doesn't meet the Open Source Definition[1] is commonly called "shared source" rather than "open source".

They aren't really confused about the licensing. Microsoft suggests that no matter what the license is for training code, generated code is not infringing — either because Copilot training is "fair use", because the similarity isn't strong enough, or because the amount copied is de minimis. However, the risk is primarily borne by the users, not by Microsoft.

Not that easy. Hydrogen is very hard to contain.

Given gas leaks and gas explosions are already a regular thing, pushing hydrogen through the same leaky pipes is not going to improve things.

There's this hydrogen fantasy where people think it's a drop in replacement for methane. The reality is that most hydrogen that is currently produced (from vast amounts of methane typically), is used on site. Transporting it around is just very hard. Even in compressed form, it still takes up a lot of space. Diesel has much better energy density by volume than hydrogen compressed at 300 bar. About 18x for the same volume.
Thats the exact point the comment is making. The moNd theory you’re looking for here is GR. We don’t think of it as a modified theory anymore though.

I think "natural rights" is an independent question, and AI passing such a test is likely to be independent from "does copyright still help people get rich from creative labour now that AI can do $thing at $quality?"

Animals have (some, limited) natural rights, but can't hold copyright. Corporations don't have "natural" rights but can hold copyright.
> What is that function with respect to middle management?

It's probably easier to create such a function for the CEO and board. For instance some risk weighted present day value of future net earnings, possibly combined with short- medium term stock market value to please stock owners that have a shorter-than-infinite horizon for their ownership.

Once that is decided, mid level manager objectives reduces to whatever optimizes the CEO objectives.
That was on YouTube. This thread is related to Twitter, where you cannot report a tweet for "misinformation".
From what I saw it was Truss and Kwarteng who caused the immediate issues, so not really a fall person, so much as the people who caused the problem leaving.

They came up with the disasterous "mini-budget" which kicked it all off, they dismissed a senior treasury civil servant right before that, they didn't co-ordinate with the bank of england.

Sure there are deeper problems that are not of their making but they made them a lot worse.

You're thinking of patents. Novelty isn't important in copyright.
I think this is overly simplistic. People routinely write comments that bear a lot of similarity to other comments (there's only so many ways you can write words in English) so there's some threshold for originality that's applied.

Looking at it from the other side, minor tweaks to otherwise interesting and novel comments shouldn't exempt you from scrutiny.

There might be a happy medium in there somewhere, but it's hard to know for sure.
Since you're proposing society tortures and kills people without evidence that it'll make things better (and in spite of the evidence that it clearly doesn't), you're essentially saying "let's torture and kill people for fun."

If you followed that logic out, what makes you better than a murderer or violent criminal?
I think the problem is less that they temporarily banned his account, it's more that the language of the message was completely false. There was no "careful review", and it was not permanent.

Also, as others have pointed out, "suspension" implies that the interruption is temporary, so "permanently suspended" doesn't even make sense.

Why would you ask HN this? HN is largely anti-crypto/web3 and very much rooted or invested/working in web2.

No one knows what the future of NFTs in 10 years is, that's why their value, as a whole, is entirely speculative.

Permissionless, global, composable technologies to enforce property rights for transferable tradeable digital assets are a no-brainer. They must become ubiquitous.

But NFTs as they exist now probably won't resemble what they are 10 years from now. In that sense, NFTs have no future.
It’s so the center is connected to the outside, not because they want to speed up the connection between opposite sides.

Uncertainty in atmospheric refraction limits exactly how accurate you can get. Celestial Navigation books say it's better to make several measurements of the same star than to measure a bunch of different ones.

From what I understand, some land surveyors often still use a sun sighting to determine true North.

GPS has the advantage of working when it's cloudy, or when the sky is blocked by trees or buildings. And a GPS receiver is pretty cheap, durable, compact, and foolproof compared to a telescope and camera system which will have to be recalibrated regularly.

A human would have. He's just pointing out something to redirect the ire.

This is literally what the cloud is now for a fraction of the cost of the admin guy.

Current gen serverless containers basically deliver that promise of ease of use, scalability, and low cost.

For me, Google Cloud Run, Azure Container Apps, and AWS App Runner fulfill the promise of the cloud. Literally any dev can start building on these platforms with virtually no specialized knowledge.

What happens next will be interesting.

At this point, a general election would be the obviously correct solution. It's clear that the conservative party don't have a platform and can't agree major policy points amongst themselves.

However that would require conservative MPs to vote for it, which is the turkeys voting for Christmas so unlikely to happen, so I'd expect we'll have to wait till 2024 for that election.

The best likely outcome is that a set of senior people in the party agree a policy platform and try to steady things for now.

Yes, Vulcan was looked for just like DM has been looked for. The evidence for DM is largely indirect, just like the evidence for Vulcan. The OP's comment is a good summary of where we stand now. I suggest comparing all of the evidence for DM and MOND:

From Galactic Bars to the Hubble Tension: Weighing Up the Astrophysical Evidence for Milgromian Gravity, https://www.mdpi.com/2073-8994/14/7/1331/htm

There is definitely something to MOND. It would be a remarkable coincidence if MOND was able to make accurate predictions with only a single parameter, visible mass, what takes DM multiple parameters and a tuned mass distribution specific to each observable galaxy. DM definitely "explains more" in some sense because of how much more work it's received, but that's not saying much.

Show HN: AirPlay digital banners to your smart TV with the Party Banner app
Hey HN!

Party Banner is a new app developed by myself and a friend that allows you to stream digital banners to your smart TV for events and special occasions. Using AirPlay, you can mirror your iPhone or iPad screen to your TV, and then select a banner from the app. The animated banner will appear on your TV, and you can even customize the name for your VIP.

We’ve recently decided to make the app free, and offer an in-app purchase for custom banner design requests.

Let us know what you think about the app, the idea, or even ways we can improve the design or experience. Thanks!

You can copyright derivative, transformative work though?

I don't think current legal frameworks are equipped to handle these types of generative works. There will need to be either new laws, or at least some legal precedence established. For example, it would make total sense for stuff posted publicly to optionally have a "not to be used to train models" license. But models are being trained on public data that pre-dates anyone thinking that is something that they should worry about.
At Google, Ceres is used to:

- Solve bundle adjustment and SLAM problems in Project Tango.

Microsoft Research uses Ceres for nonlinear optimization of objectives involving subdivision surfaces under skinned control meshes.
