My anecdotal experience is that none of the ~10 or so pro-Charter School people I know are in the bottom 30% of incomes (even talking about bottom 30% of my network). Most of them reference the curriculum and their objections, whether from religious beliefs, pseudoscience, or similar. Others planned to send their kids to private school anyways and want to save money.
An Argument Against Image AIs [video]
I don't think your last comment addresses what they were getting at. If someone open sources something with a permissive license with all things pointing to keeping that license, and then switches it up once they get users, then that is a bit of a bait and switch. It is different than saying from the get-go "hey, we need money to develop this, so please pay".

Is it really entitlement to be a little upset at having built large things on top of permissively licensed software only for that software to suddenly become locked behind a new license?
Or maybe we try to actually fix the problems that cause people to turn to violence and crime. "It's the economy, stupid!" and all that. People who feel financially secure and can pay for more than just life's basics have less reason to commit crime. People who have mental health issues are less likely to engage in criminal activity if they have those issues treated.

That won't fix everything, of course. People will get involved in crime for other reasons. Obviously there are rich people who are criminals; financial security doesn't remove every temptation to do crime. But I think a lot of the people you label "antisocial" these days are people who have been left behind by society, people who have gotten crushed by wages that haven't kept up with inflation (even before the current inflation issues), by companies who raise CEO pay and send dividends to investors, while ignoring the wages of their employees. Why would anyone bother to be "social" if doing so doesn't solve their economic insecurity?

And sure, there are some people who just don't give a shit about living in polite society, who don't think twice about violating norms and taking what they want. I have no problem locking those people up. But I think those people are a much smaller percentage of people who commit crimes than you think.

I don't know much about policing in Israel, but as I understand Japan, there's rampant corruption and a lot of innocent people behind bars. A near-100% conviction rate is just too good to be true. If you get charged with a crime in Japan, you are screwed, even if you didn't do anything wrong. The only alternative explanation is that Japanese police are so afraid of losing a case that they only charge the near-certain slam dunks. But if that were the case, I think we'd see a lot more crime in Japan than we do. So the only realistic explanation is that a lot of innocent people get steamrolled.

I do absolutely agree with your points 2 and 3. Time spent in prison should not make convicts into better criminals! Hell, even sitting in pre-trial detention for a few months can harden minor offenders. And after a prisoner has served their time, they shouldn't have that history dragged into employment, housing, credit, etc. decisions. If we still feel like they can't be trusted in jobs without their employers knowing about their conviction history, then they probably aren't fit to be released from prison in the first place.

Tell HN: I was tired of being a perfectionist so I built an app within 24 hours
Like probably many of you, I'm kind of a perfectionist coder/creator. Recently I'd been bookmarking interesting dark mode sites just because I liked their aesthetic, and because for some of the SaaS I want to make, I wanted to make it dark mode first rather than light mode like most sites, so I was looking for inspiration.

I'd amassed around 20-30 and I told my friends about these cool sites yesterday. They mentioned that me linking to each one was kind of annoying and they wanted to see all of them at once, similar to how Awwwards and other web design inspiration directories worked. I thought a making a dark mode directory was a great idea as I could just link one site to my friends rather than bombarding them with links.

I'd previously worked on other projects but I always spent too long nitpicking every detail. It always took so long that I lost interest after a while and the project was abandoned, or I overengineered the site so much that I didn't even get to the actual app functionality. People say to build an MVP as soon as you can, but for certain people, it can be quite a challenge to constrain yourself.

This time I told myself I'd do everything in 24 hours, as it's not a super complex idea to create. I bought a domain off Google Domains, used Next.js to spin up a React site, and basically converted my bookmarks into a JSON file along with their titles and descriptions. In the React side, I read the JSON file and put the URLs in iframes with another container with the title and description.

One tricky part was that many sites block iframes, so what I had to do was save the entire website into its constituent HTML, CSS, and JS, and I displayed that instead in the iframe.

Overall, I'm happy that I was able to execute on an idea within only a day of working on it. It's not a monetized product or anything, simply a directory, but still, it was fun.

The site is: https://darkmodes.com (I was surprised that the .com domain was actually available!)

Edit: If the link doesn't work, try https://darkmodes.vercel.app, having some domain issues right now.
There’s lots of opportunities to induce a service to send an email to an arbitrary address — e.g: I sign up for a LinkedIn account with your email address — so there’s a few common patterns that could be used.

For example, the first time an email address is seen by the service as a “send me a copy” address, the service could first send a confirmation email (much like a “did you register for a LinkedIn account?” confirmation email) before sending a copy of the message.

Framed as a feature (i.e: subscribe to receive a copy of any message sent from your address) it could be quite compelling! I’d love to know what people are claiming I sent via message forms (how valuable it would be, I don’t know, but it’s certainly something I’d sign up for).
Would you study for an IQ test? Perhaps, but then is that fair? If you do, what is actually being measured? Certainly not IQ anymore.

Maybe it doesn't occur to students that they should attempt to increase their score because they have a certain innocent model of the world, perhaps one in which they put trust in educational institutions to (as they claim to do) tell them how they should best achieve personal success. If it were a valuable use of their time, surely someone would tell them?

If the software versions prior to the licence change remains open source, and the new licence only affects development going forward, there shouldn't be any issue whatsover for users of the open source version.

Has there been an instance of a licence change closing off access to previously open source code? (Is that even possible to do when forks are trivially created?)
This aspect of human nature has been known well before ancient Egypt was a thing. The traditional allegory, which you may find in all major religions, is that every human is driven by "priests" of ambition and desire, who are empowered by the demon of ignorance. The priest of ambition wants power over others, he wants to be feared. The selfish priest of desire wants to be loved by everyone, but will love no one in return. Ambition dominates desire. Most successful men are servants of the two. Sociopaths are driven by inhuman ambition. Clueless - by selfish desire. Losers are the weak, indecisive crowd. There are two outcomes for most: some will manage to kick out both priests and expell the demon, while others will become its slaves, appearing powerful to the crowd, but miserable inside.

Can confirm. Embedded development (this sort of development) kinda sucks, IMO. It has a certain sort of simple old-school charm, but it's mostly pain, although opinions probably differ.
> Or we could acknowledge that society functions best when the most qualified people are chosen and decide to only discriminate on merit.

The problem is that we have never actually done that. "Legacy admissions" is a fine example of that failure. Large donations influence admissions decisions. Biases (unconscious or conscious) can take two people of equal merit and cause an admissions officer to prefer one over the other.

There have already been studies showing that simply changing a person's name (either to present a different gender or race/national origin) on a resume can result in a different hiring decision.

A purpose of all of these equity initiatives is to compensate for the reasons why we already suck at giving people opportunities based on merit. Some of them are ill-advised and end up not working, but that doesn't mean we should just throw our hands up and accept the status quo.

And I certainly don't expect us to wave a magic wand and turn ourselves into perfectly rational, unbiased robots who actually do select purely on merit. Which wouldn't even fix the problem, anyway. But I feel like people like you who tout this "merit" thing are also pushing something impossible to accomplish.
Historically I/O or peripherals were generally distinct from different types of memory.

Technically the CPU also "blocks" when executing an instruction, let's say adding two numbers, because obviously the sum isn't available in 0 cycles. One might imagine semantics where you explicitly ask some CPU unit to add some numbers and then wait for the result and having blocking or non-blocking wrappers around it but it sort of becomes moot. Generally async/non-blocking operations are abstractions over I/O peripherals that have an async nature, e.g. you submit something and you get some reply later, or you wait for a network packet to come in etc. Reply is often an interrupt.

I agree the lines have blurred a little with modern CPUs (and arguably were always blurry with some peripherals being memory mapped) but something like waiting on a packet to come in or a disk operation to complete is outside the box that you'd draw around the CPU and its more tightly integrated components.
The US, in addition to forced labor in prisons, has also had forced camps in our recent past.

We have moved people to concentration camps (excuse me, "internment camps") just because of their ethnicity within the past 80 years...

So yeah, we do have slave labor and we have locked people into camps.
> And if dlopen() is called in another thread, needing to (re)allocate TLS space and/or rebuild the index? You're relying on implementation details.

This could also happen when I'm not in a signal handler, and the exact same mechanism that protects me in that case would also apply inside the signal handler (if the signal handler is restricted to running only during epoll_pwait()).

Again, a signal handler that is blocked from running except during epoll_pwait() has no special safety concerns different from those of a regular function call.

> That's because file descriptors are independent of threads--a thread doesn't "own" a descriptor--so the semantics of per-thread signals cannot cleanly map.

Well, file descriptors are independent of processes, too! You can send them to another process via parent->child inheritance or across a unix domain socket via SCM_RIGHTS. So what happens if you add EVFILT_SIGNAL in one process and then read the kqueue from another? Whose signals do you get?

Anyway, what they could have done is provided a way to specify, when adding EVFILT_SIGNAL, that it should notify only for signals deliverable to a particular thread.
That's unfortunate, but will the license change actually solve that? Are a lot of companies going to pay an annual license for a .NET image library?

In the longer term, I'm guessing this pushes everyone pretty strongly towards SkiaSharp instead.
> copyright is the legal mechanism by which that is done.

That doesn't mean there can't be other legal mechanisms that would also accomplish software freedom.

Closed-source software should just be illegal. Then you don't need copyright to ensure freedom. With copyright gone, you are now guaranteed free to reuse any code. The law should not prohibit copying, it should only require attribution (i.e., prohibit plagiarism).

Having just built a small PC after having used Macs for years, I was _astounded_ how reliant they are on plug-in keyboards. It's like I'm in the late 1990s again!
There are forum comments like "wait, what are you trying to do, bluetooth keyboards are only for mobile devices and Macs, aren't they?", like that's an acceptable thing. I'm not sure about Windows, but you can't even wake Linux from sleep with a bluetooth keyboard or mouse!

> think their use-case is that niche so it doesn't fit the cloud, are probably wrong.

My sentiment leans toward host your own for a number of reasons, but it's challenging to make good decisions. Can you trust the person who is telling you that you can do it? Their org chart goes away if they lose this argument, so of course you're going to hear from them how we can do this.

If the team you have has been doing a decent job, maybe you should listen to them. If they've been doing a poor job, then you have to ask why they're suddenly going to be able to provide a level of service you haven't been enjoying for years. My company went through one of these fishtails. I think everybody is happier that we ended up in the cloud, even those of us who will only begrudgingly admit it. As I said in another thread, I think the Hype Cycle for The Cloud will at least give some orgs with a dysfunctional IT department an opportunity to clean house and then start over in a couple of years as informed consumers. Or find a new kind of service provider that distances itself from The Cloud salespitch.
Why don’t you actually look up the religion and ethnicity of those people instead of blindly asserting that they are Protestants and Anglo-Saxons? You haven’t cited a single source showing that the leadership of the Ivy League are WASPs, but you’re claiming that all over this thread. If you’re going to make the bold assertion that the leaderships of those schools prefer applicants of their own ethnicity and religion, you better back it up with evidence, or else you just look like a bigoted racist.
Gamma should not have any effect on the alpha channel, which is linear by definition.
The alpha channel represents the average coverage of (infinite) subpixels within the pixel. The color encoding of an object should not have any impact on the coverage within that pixel.

I recommend reading the technical memo "Alpha and the History of Digital Compositing" by Alvy Ray Smith [1] to get a better intuition on the matter.

Yea, they can keep using the old versions, but that locks them out of the new versions and breaks expectations, especially since they were a member of the .NET Foundation. So it's up to them to keep using a version that won't get fixes or new features or accept the new license.

This whole thing just points out how hard all of this is to get right. I understand both sides. But I do at least get the feeling that the ImageSharp team is a bit high strung.

https://github.com/dotnet/Microsoft.Maui.Graphics/issues/47

I think this is probably an intentional move to move away from Microsoft and the .NET Foundation in addition to trying to capitalize on people making a lot of money from the software package.

After having looked at the license, it seems reasonable enough to me aside from the technicalities others have brought up. The vvvv tool follows a similar license of, it's free unless you make money from it.

I actually got the non-pro model specifically cause I found the Bluetooth silly. At the same time the lack of a function row on this serves two purposes.

First, if you look at the advantage the function keys were membrane and were not good to use. The style of keyboard makes it hard to have a lot depth on the keyboard so it’s safer to just cut the row off now and use layers.

Second, it literally saves you a whole row of mechanical switches which by itself is a large savings in any board.
For another nice discussion of this topic, see this older publication by Blinn (yes that Blinn): https://courses.cs.washington.edu/courses/cse576/03sp/readin...

In this older terminology, pre-multiplied alpha is called associated alpha. He goes through the math, but a key takeaway is: "... downsampling and, in fact, all filtering operations should operate on arrays of associated pixel colors ..."

I really enjoy Blinn's articles (and iq's :).

But isn't that really the issue at hand? You have different data points from the person you replied to. That means that you are both correct, for some subset of people. But do your data points generalize to the larger population, or does the other person's?

I don't think these conversations need to devolve. Where are the large-scale studies that show that your data point is the one that's the most common? I'm willing to believe that it is, but everyone seems to just prefer to assume their data point is the one we should be acting upon.
Yes - I'd say it's nearly the definition of entitlement. I can totally understand why it would be frustrating, but to assume the people producing this resource are immune from paying the rent and would be forever is ignorant. People should consider that they ever got it for free as a bonus. If migrating away from FOSS is too upsetting , frustrating or painful - don't build on tools with questionable sustainability models from the start, or DIY.
