For a Christian it's not "theoretically". It's absolutely certain. The article argues a logical point from within the Christian framework. Obviously if you are outside that framework, nothing of it makes any sense.
If you think about future business cases, my guess is if I'm in the content creation business I'd hire some artist to create inputs for my ML model to train. And I'd be the only one with access to these inputs (in the beginning). Or think about it the other way around. If I'm an artist I buy a commodity AI-art-generation-engine and feed it with my work and I can create infinite items in my own style for (digital) sale.

It'll all be about time to market and brand building. I could even see a world where the originals of the input creator would sell quite well as classic modern artworks. Imagine for a second a world where 3D assets get created this way. I'm pretty sure fans of popular games would shell out good money for originals from "the artist behind the Witcher 7 asset engine" if the trajectory of human development goes as I see it going.

Also...artists are going to create art no matter if it makes financial sense or not. In fact I'd argue that's the difference between art and design :P
Not quite. It still relies on their inputs. It doesn't just put them out of work, it feeds off them.

I'm not sure of what I'd call this relationship, but parasitic is close to it.
>It's simply zero covid working better than the best vaccines

Based on one metric. But ultimately it's self defeating. If you flush the economy down the toilet then there isn't the money for clean water, or hospitals etc.

Further zero flu works better than the vaccine. Do you want to stop the world until every disease is eradicated.

Lockdowns were never sustainable, in the context of a modern economy. It's a question of the least worst option. Vaccines mean it's no longer the least worst option.
> It sounds like a lot of dude-trust-me, but imagine that it is possible somebody out there, maybe a very passionate neckbeard on some forum might just have an intimate history with plan9 and have a reason to feel this way before you go refuting them with JUST enough facts about their tone and delivery to fool people into thinking you're right, because you're not.

While I made my points separately, together it does spin my argument as being "right" when the whole is perhaps not, I will concede that. I guess like you said, time will tell what's to come. I am also inclined to believe you are who you say you are.

I mainly take issue with gatekeeping, and I make a stink about it when I see it. The more positive variant I endorse is initiation. Instead of "you know nothing, go away" I'd rather see: "you know nothing, let me teach you the ways." Granted it's quite a feat to initiate an anonymous mass on the internet. Certainly not for the sane or faint of heart.

> Make a note, you have one coffee on me, should we cross paths. Though we disagree today I can tell you're alright.

You are too. I sympathise, I really do. The little corners we carve for ourselves are precious in their own way. Even when they change, perhaps for the better, we still grieve the past.

I just can't help but notice how soft so many of these shots look. The composition and lighting is beautiful, the immediate impact of the photo is great, but then if you start to really look for more than a few seconds on desktop, you see how smudgy so much of the detail is.

I recently gave up my mirrorless in favor of my iPhone because the latter was just so much more convenient and largely good enough. I wonder if it is physically possible, however, for these smaller lens and sensor packages to ever get to the point of eliminating that phone camera smudge?
Posted on Producthunt and tweet about it a bit. This post though has by far got the most interest.
If it doesn't lock on straight away, it also asks you if the clock is set correctly.

I think those older GPS chips might only use the US-operated GPS system while modern ones can consider other positioning satellites as well. And they also can't download AGPS data of satellite drift from the internet, so they need to get it from the satellites themselves.

I can trace the history of TomTom GPS devices: my first one was bought in 2008 at BestBuy in Seattle during a US trip (we called it "Dave" after the voice's name, grew kinda fond of it and even used it in Germany despite or maybe because of it reading German place names with a funny US "accent"). Of course it was limited by the technology available at the time: the touchscreen was low-res and reacted sluggishly, and the memory was limited, so you had to constantly swap between maps that you could store on the device and those backed up on your PC. I kept around a Windows installation just for updating this TomTom, because I wanted to avoid the hassle and was afraid of losing the maps when trying to transfer them. Then I finally bought a new TomTom in 2019, and it was much better: bigger, better screen, could fit a map for the whole world in memory, free lifetime updates, could connect to Wi-Fi to update itself, so no more fiddly PC software needed etc. But unfortunately TomTom's maps were extremely lacking in the very first country we wanted to use it in (Ecuador).
Nice summary. I think it all boils down to the fact that 99% of projects just don't REALLY need what Erlang has to offer - they don't REALLY need five nines of uptime, hotpatching in production (actually, the requirement is mostly the exact opposite!), or individual communicating nodes. And when the project really does need that, you can get pretty far with microservices today, which - arguably - implemented half of common LISP, khm, I mean Erlang - are supported by all the cloud providers. And anyway, if Stackoverflow can get by with a couple of .net and SQL servers, most anyone can. Maybe not Google, but are you Google? :)

Erlang is just an engineering marvel, but in the real world, engineering is always a compromise.
probably true as well.

also iirc the actual clock of the logic gates is a factor above the 'operations clock'
Back in the day we'd have called Rakuten a leech.
Despite using Google maps I like having a separate GPS navigation system like this running in the background as a backup. That’s in case if something happens to my phone and it no longer works, then I have a secondary GPS device.
China had heavy lockdowns. Changing the policy could be seen as admitting they made a mistake. There's one party, but multiple factions, and some factions pushed lockdowns harder than others.

Ask HN: How browser products achieve PMF?
Google Chrome/Safari is an excellent browser for browsing and I've been using it for about 10+ years now.

I'm more curious to understand if there is an actual need for new browsers that Chrome/Safari are not able to provide or if it's just a TAM game where the focus of upcoming browser products is to cater to a specific audience.

Would love to know what's the thought behind coming up with a new browser product.
I no longer see any value in trying to keep up with the news. Most of it is sensationalized clickbait or political circus that has no bearing on anything that actually matters to me. Extracting anything of value from these services requires lots of effort and time.

I mean, looking right now at the front page of one of the most popular news sites in my country I can see:

- clickbait title about possible corruption between two politicans

- some dude I don't know discussing some changes to social programs, except the government is not actually changing anything about that program

- some border shenanigans that doesn't affect me at all

- some celebrity I haven't heard about before is dead

- speculation regarding Russia-Ukraine war

- someone found a dead body in the forest

- another debate about a policy that is not even being changed

- someone crashed a car into a gas station building

- a balcony fell down

- speculation about Putin doing whatever

- report about the court case of a school shooter in the US (I don't live in the US)

- more speculation about Putin

- more Russia-Ukraine speculation

- a driver killed a cyclist on the road

- Hubble telescope photos

So many articles and yet the value of what I've seen is close to zero. Why would I want to keep up with this?

Priceloop NoCode Spreadsheet platform built in Scala and on-top of Postgres
Hi!

At priceloop, we are working on a completely novel way of how businesses can run their pricing. Like really really novel. Not just another AI model for pricing but we want to strive to redefine this software category.

In particular, we are building a NoCode platform that enables businesses and IT to work together in a seamless way. Some of our features:

- A powerful spreadsheet that can handle millions of rows

- Many built-in and custom functions: you can easily write external function in Python and use it in the spreadsheet: https://medium.com/priceloop-tech-blog/how-to-build-an-external-function-on-priceloop-nocode-7d1325be7816

- Autosuggestion and syntax highlighting when creating formulas; kind of a powerful IDE for spreadsheet formulas

- An easy API interface to interact with the spreadsheet

We are in early development and just released our alpha version. In the next upcoming weeks, we will also open-source the core of our platform! So bookmark our github org already: https://github.com/priceloop

Sign up to Priceloop NoCode now and try it out: https://alpha.priceloop.ai

Feedback is welcomed!
History of Mainframe Computing: Page 2 (2009)
systemd ist not an init system and it never was intended to be "just" an init system; from the very start was conceived a system services management layer.

https://0pointer.de/blog/projects/systemd.html

If there's an expansion of scope in the systemd project, that's because these use-cases were not sufficiently covered in the past. And while I wish you good luck with s6; how do you intend to replace all the functionality that systemd already delivers?

Let's pick an example; KDE and Gnome used to write their own session management software, to make sure certain applications and services that the desktop needs (like; e.g. accessibility tools). This is nowadays handled by systemd, since it - as a system services management layer - already implements all the required functionality. So instead of three half-backed systems (one by KDE, one by Gnome, one for the system, all incompatible and unable to talk to each other) we have one good implementation. User session are also now handled in systemd - one less component to be developed by the "Desktops" - yay!

Where you see feature creep I see consolidation. A consolidation that - in my opinion - is painfully necessary.
When people say they want "true opensource", they usually mean they want to be the bosses and dictate how the product is being developed to the people who are actually doing all the work and giving all the funding.
The interesting thing is that pretty much every single RHEL customer kept CentOS on the side as an "alternative". Over the past few years a lot of those alternatives actually became production systems (support became an app thing with Docker, not an OS thing), and now _of course_ Rocky is a better option, due to the lower cost and community backing (or just moving the hosts to Ubuntu/Debian).
> Under this reasoning, there is no moral justification for opposing infanticide

...if they go to heaven yes. If they go to hell then there's a huge reason to oppose it. But of course, this causes another moral hazard for Christians.

This IS the consequence of taking Christian beliefs seriously. The good thing about Christians is that they don't really take their beliefs seriously. That's a huge strength. There's a reason "fundamentalist" literally means "believes in the basic ideas" and also means "a crazy person".
Most of the comments I see are taking issue with exact replication of code - this is obviously copyright infringement. The same thing can occur with Stable Diffusion - if I output an image of Iron Man, this is also copyright infringement. Both are bad. Realizing this does not mean that you must inherently be against Co-Pilot or Stable Diffusion. It would be just as bad if I copied the code with a ctrl+c ctrl+v, or drew Iron Man with a pen and pencil.

There are of course some people in there against the very idea of Co-Pilot, but from my quick skimming they do appear to be the minority.
Yeah, I absolutely couldn't survive on 50% of my current salary, but as far as I know non-compete can't also be "any programming job". So given I sign a non-compete with, for example, a fintech company, it would be totally fine to join company doing something completely different. But then with half of my salary already paid I could do like 4 days week and not necessarily go with a highest paying option.

Hard user separation with NixOS – Tweag
A nice little thing that TCL has "given" Python, so to speak, is tkinter. Absolutely basic, but it still did the job for me back in the day.

I remember that when I started learning Python about 20 years ago I used to write a Python script with a quick and dirty tkinter interface on my Linux desktop at home, I was then copying everything on a floppy-disk in order to use that script/program at work, on a Windows machine (with the help of py2exe, another very nice tool).
> Tokyo's building codes do require bathrooms. Plus minimum sunshine for a room to count as a bedroom, along with shutters on all windows.

I'm actually interested to know if Melbourne has similar minimum standards.
I'm mostly in favour of deregulating residential construction, but after seeing multiple shoddily built apartments with next to no sunlight in the Melbourne CBD, I shifted a bit closer to the "regulation" side of the spectrum.
I don't even have to disagree, it is irrelevant since the search results are personalized. How many thousands of times do I have to click MDN for the algo to organize it to the top?
A project that's not going well. VA system might be MUMPS based, but it's very good, as you say.

The big issue from my EHR-adjacent vantage point is that all the money is in making giant, entrenched EHRs, whereas the future should be in lighter-weight services that conform to standards, and competition is between those services. That way you could gradually slice off VA functionality piece by piece, and have a successful, more efficient, gradual migration.
A two-line text display is still a screen.

My dad's early-2000s Peugeot 407 also had a similar set-up: a red/orange monochrome dot-matrix display, with a surprisingly hot backlight, capable of displaying only the most rudiminary of roundabout diagrams and now-and-next directions. It did use TTS to pronounce street names with the wrong inflection and an overemphasis on "yAAARds" as units-of-distance for some reason. It was controlled by an easy-to-lose infrared remote-control D-pad: entering an address meant picking each letter one-by-one from an A-Z list until it could autocomplete the street name.

I was always envious of kids whose parents had contemporaneous Mercedes with their full-color 3-4" LCD screens - until they'd told me of how bad UX was across the board: stuff like sub-usable frame-rates, overpriced map-data updates, etc - and this never got better over time until Tesla showed-up with 17" full-screen 60fps Google satellite imagery right there. And still the rest of the car industry doesn't "get" good UX. Le sigh.

(Yes, I drive a Model X and I'll decide the next car I buy squarely on the car's software UX - because if they can't get something as simple as smooth framerates right then what else are they getting wrong in the car?)
This is interesting. I wonder if it could be used in speech therapy, to help the speaker understand the difference between what a sound should sound like, and the sound coming out of their mouths.

I personally have problems saying two different letters differently, and I just recorded myself trying to say both letters. Sure enough, there is very little difference in the way they are both displayed. I will ask other people to say this letters, and see if I can spot the difference. Then I should be able to play around with differing lip, mouth, tongue, and larynx positions to see how close I can come.

Any tips for highlighting subtle differences in specific places would be appreciated!
Excellent, this is great news. Ideally, they will bring something amazing to compete with the others.
Well, obviously TomTom is still in business but only because they adapted their original business model drastically. I think the original article is also along the same lines.
Samsung phones were actually highly ad laden until they realised it was hurting their brand about a year or two before you bought yours. I'm expecting ads to slowly slip back in.
In my experience on Windows NVDA is worth testing with as well.
Until your list of "popular filters" include ones such as "hide jews" or "hide blacks", following clamours for a central authority to ban those filters, or to shut down the entire platform.
We talk about someone with serious self-confidence and self-esteem issues, he made Winnie the Pooh illegal after all, on his way to become de-facto dictator of China. So yes, I'd say more power over the people is exactly what Chinese leadership wants. That they ruin the economy over it, well, all totalitarian regimes learned that part the hard way sooner or later.
> This is the dirty side of the "open immigration" - both illegal and legal.

At least legal immigrants can be reached by the government and have their rights explained to them in a language they can understand. Unfortunately, most countries don't do that by default, and if people are lucky some sort of NGO (usually unions) steps up.

The core problem anyway is a lack of enforcement of labor regulations, first by a lack of employer audits, followed by a subsequent lack of punitive actions against employers found to violate regulations.
Usually you can still find jobs easily. Most of these laws also bar companies from defining it very broadly, so I don't think they could make a non-compete like "any programming job"
I have a modern car with a built-in satnav as well as Android Auto support, and yet I still use my TomTom 5000 - it's just better. Definitely better than crappy Google Maps, definitely better than volvo's built-in maps, and it's without any kind of comparison how much better it is than Apple Maps. You get in the car, it auto-selects the destination based on the patterns it learnt(so if you get in at 7am on a workday, it automatically selects "work" as your destination. Then around 4pm, it will select "Home". At 8pm it doesn't select anything because it has no record of you going anywhere around that time usually) - something super basic that no one has ever done.

And it has a lifetime subscription to traffic updates with a built-in SIM card that works internationally as well. Drove with it across Europe several times and it's still the best satnav you could have.

>RISCV isn't that standardized that there won't be a plethora and mess of peripherals available from every manufacturer. It will be much like ARM.

Hardware, sure. Although not as much, as standarization goes further than ARM, with the platform profiles including e.g. standard serial ports, interrupt controllers and so on.

In practice, on the software side, it'll be closer to your usual IBM PC clone.

The boot process, with SBI and UEFI standarized, is also part of the relevant platform profiles. How to get to the point where a kernel loaded in memory is defined. The environment this kernel finds is also defined. The kernel does actually get a description of the hardware.

ARM did very little of that, and did it too late. RISC-V has it all in place before the hardware is even there, so it should be alright.
