That's also an excellent example.

Or a random employee copies some art work that is then published ( https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2018/07/post-office-owes... ). You will note all the people that didn't get in trouble there - neither the photographer who created the image, nor Getty in making it available, nor the random employee who used it without checking its provenance.

In all of these cases, it is (or would be) the organization that published the copyrighted work without doing the appropriate diligence on checking what it is, if it would be useable, and how it should be licensed.

> The Post Office says it has new procedures in place to make sure that it doesn't make a mistake like this again.

... which is what companies who make use of AI models for generating content (be it art or code) should be doing to ensure that they're not accidentally infringing on existing copyrighted works.

It's normally much easier to buy e.g. a computer, a mattress, various household chemicals than to get rid of them properly. We need to tackle one or both sides of this equation, or people will just dump stuff in their local river if you censor the burning video.

It's the old piracy argument again, loads of money was spent trying to take down pirate mp3 sites without results, then Spotify comes along. But maybe recycling some of this stuff is really difficult, in which case the cost of dealing with it should be factored into the price.

The article claims that aria-label is only intended to be used on interactive elements. This surprised me, so I looked into it. The ARIA spec says aria-label can used with any roles, with no mention of being reserved for interactive elements. https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.1/#aria-label

Also, maybe I am too jaded by working at orgs that don't care about a11y, but any indication that any amount of thought has been put into a11y issues is the opposite of a code smell to me.

This is probably the wrong way to think of it. Especially at screen sizes, there are certain photos your iphone 13 can take that are comparable to what you would get with your nikon gear. However there are photos you can get with that 1.8 that won't work at all on your phone.
To be honest I think Twitter is better without any check marks. I remember reading somewhere that check marks were awarded to some user based on their connections to certain employees at Twitter.
Nope. He would pay HUUGE taxes if do this.
This is meaningless though. The majority of AI generated art you see out there is either hand tweaked or post-processed or both. There's human input involved and drawing a line is going to absolutely backfire.
People do, it's just niche.

OpenNIC has a lot of non-ICANN domains but runs in a fashion similar to ICANN (central organization deciding rules for TLDs). Iirc there are some small non-US communities that use this a lot.

There are also a decent amounts of crypto TLDs (.bit for namecoin, Ethereum has a couple, etc).

There are of course a lot of corporations that use custom DNS domains for internal purposes, like .corp or .internal or the like.

It is difficult to get people to change their DNS serves en masse to something non-standard. The lack of being able to get real TLS certificates is also an issue though there is work in this direction: OpenNIC is developing a traditional CA afaik and namecoin has some experimental stuff to support DNSSEC and TLSA to have TLS certs enforced by the blockchain.
Its comparable in sales to the Model S I think. Maybe even outsells it in some places. And sells more then many other cars in that category.

>Steinways have heavy keys

I'll preface with by saying that I know very little about pianos but I love them for all their mechanics.

I've heard it said that if it were possible to get the action feel equal across all the keys, the manufacturer would. But your comment makes it sound less like a bug than a feature. Is it because people have just gotten used to it as an expectation, or because there is an inherent advantage?

(I'm assuming your statement about "heavy" keys was meant as a comparison between models and not a comparison of keys on the same piano).
All kinds of ways, but most by their own efforts. https://www.economist.com/special-report/2011/01/22/more-mil...
Ah, I hadn't come across Atuin before! They're pretty similar, but I think one significant advantage of hiSHtory is the "Custom Columns" support where you can populate custom columns with the output of an arbitrary shell script. For example, you can use this to collect the current git branch as an additional column.
Hmm, the cycle map on osm.org is pretty much what I'm after, but for walking tracks.
I do love mapbox's map style, and had a play with it to get the walk tracks to show at all zoom level, but only really got them to be red (and some black at higher zoom levels)
https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/adriel/cite19m62004l2ip1xk6...

I usually use maps.me, (and sometimes outdooractive, they have a walking layer, it's under paid plan, and even when I tried the paid, there walking layer didn't appear to do anything.)

Thanks for the OsmAnd tips, and that does help a bit, the tracks stick around a little longer when zooming out, but not nearly long enough if I'm zoomed out to the 2km+ levels, they just disappear.

I'm not really stuck to one app (or even mobile, computer or web based app would be fine too), if there is something out there that does it better I'll switch, though I won't pay much for it, I don't use it often enough. Unless it's a one time payment.

Appreciate the tips, thank you.
You’re a genius.
I would say it's better than doing nothing though.
I think your key assumption here is wrong: uranium isn't fundamentally expensive. It's expensive because there isn't enough current demand for it to bring more uranium mines and enrichment facilities online. Uranium used to be cheaper (adjusted for inflation) per gram than it is now, because there used to be more of those facilities online than there are now. With increased demand, it would be cheaper again.
Yup exactly! And you can even collect other custom metadata to make it easier to jump write back to where you were.
Too expensive. Diesel fuel is almost as cheap as water. Your standard of living depends hugely on it being this cheap btw.
Dear god no. Ethanol subsidies in America are already a catastrophe; we need to be getting rid of them, not making the problem worse.

The Biggest Bottleneck for Large Language Model Startups Is UX
I wouldn't dismiss it so fast. I've seen SD generate some quite creative images, and original as I've been able to determine by searching the training dataset. One example was asking for a picture of someone riding a Vespa, and one of the images had the rider wearing the Vespa fenders as a helmet, louvers and all. I don't see what else to call that but the AI's "own idea".
ESRI and the USGS provide WMS tilesets of USGS topographic quads. So a generic WMS viewer capability with the ability to save cached tiles offline in Gaia could provide that functionality without incurring additional bandwidth costs. Except of course, users might prefer these maps to the in-house ones that you charge a subscription for.

The subscription model has distorted the smartphone map app ecosystem, just like it has the rest of the software industry.

For the record, OSM maps lack the detail and reliability of the legacy USGS 7.5 minute topographic quads. For that matter, the most recent USGS topographic maps are themselves almost as bad as OSM! For best coverage I would recommend the 1990s series or earlier. ( https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/how-do-us-topo-maps-differ-histori... )

For Android, OSMAnd is good enough for navigation and Qfield can load any GIS vector or raster layer from a desktop QGIS project.

Who said anything about (geographic) centralization / "one huge facility"? Federal land is everywhere in the US (see the diagram: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_lands). There's lots and lots of "middle of nowheres" owned by the federal government, in pretty much every state, dispersed enough that each one is not too far from easy grid connection.

If you've ever seen what is done to wire up a hydroelectric dam in a "middle of nowhere" river valley to the grid, this wouldn't be all too different: clearcut a narrow straight-line path through a few hundred miles of wilderness, up and over and mountains/rivers/etc, and run some ultra-high-voltage transmission lines over them. Here's what that looks like in the abstract (https://www.bchydro.com/content/dam/BCHydro/customer-portal/...), and in practice (https://thumbs.dreamstime.com/z/powerlines-across-mountains-...)

(It especially wouldn't be all too different, because most Federal land is in the Rockies, so these nuclear plants would likely be mostly built in almost exactly the same terrain as hydroelectric dams are built in, and so dealing with basically the same grid-routing challenges.)

And while all those middle-of-nowheres would provide room enough for hundreds/thousands of those https://www.energy.gov/ne/advanced-small-modular-reactors-sm..., if you like, you really don't need to go against efficiencies of scale; 20% of power in the US is already covered by just 54 plants, and those only in 28 states. Presuming some real "this land has no land value" places where you could build as big as you like, you wouldn't need to more than double that number to cover 80% (because you could do quite a few reactors per site.)

Why would this be okay? Well, remember, nuclear is base load generation; meaning that it doesn't compete with (most) renewables, only with other base-load generation — mainly oil/coal and hydro-power. All that distributed solar/wind/etc infrastructure that's good for grid fault-tolerance would still be there if China lobbed some missiles at the big plants.
> It's part of a narrative to blame consumers for causing climate change, meanwhile industry pollutes far more.

True, but "ignore personal action and rail at industry" is part of another narrative that is probably still less effective at changing industry.

If you find a polity where consumers are not taking individual action to address climate change, you will find it is not applying more pressure on industry or politicians than a polity where consumers are taking individual action. If you attack the individuals who are taking action, you are attacking the political base that would support addressing climate change. Convincing them that their efforts are pointless, silly, and perhaps just vanity or arrogance, does not empower them. Industry is not quaking in its boots at the prospect that people will accuse all the composters and recyclers of virtue signaling and hypocrisy.

Comparing it to the F150 is idiotic. That's the most sold car in the US and in a different segment.

Compare it to other comparable cars in the same segment and it looks pretty damn good.

Lower volume high margin cars are really worth it for companies and Ford wishes it had an EV in that classed that sold have as well. The Model X sells in numbers not unlike Mach E while having double the price.

Maybe I have a fundamental misunderstanding of what compels people to use Twitter. I thought the few people in question use Twitter as a convenient tool to communicate with wide audiences (i.e. marketing) and the rest are mostly especially dedicated followers who want to be marketed to. Are there actually people who primarily use Twitter for "content"? Are the blue checkmark people (i.e. celebrities) even the ones generating that content?

The content for billboards is also "generated by a relatively small number of users", but those users still have to pay to use them. I've always seen Twitter as a personal billboard, and a checkmark as a coveted signal booster. But maybe that's wrong?

if you reproduced an exact image (to the same lossy degree as jpeg) using the NN, then you are violating copyright.

But if you reproduced an image whose style matches another copyrighted image (e.g., blah in the style of starry night), then how does that new image (which didn't exist before) violate existing copyright? You cannot copyright a style.

The NN containing information which _could_ be used to reconstruct an exact image doesn't itself constitute copyright violation - because the right to use information for training NN is not an exclusive right that the original holder of the training set has.

So either a new law has to come into existence, vis a vis the right to use copyrighted works to train a NN, or the current copyright laws should apply (which implies that NN generated images which are not "exact" copies of existing works don't violate copyright).
>The idea of Mastodon is good but it's too annoying to use, and that will torpedo any hope for wide use.

If by "the idea of Mastodon" you mean "you can connect to isolated versions of Twitter and view it with whatever client you want, but users maintain an account for every instance", then Mastodon is great.

The majority of people who use Mastodon use it in this way, and it's reportedly excellent. The two largest instances are identical in purpose, to the point that their userbase doesn't see their sharing of identities to be a liability, and it's functionally irrelevant to their social graph- their "usernames" are a combination of their Twitter handles and their contributions don't vanish if banned. Novel content is widespread, because the posters are all artists.

However, if by "the idea of Mastodon" you mean "you can have a unified identity, but server admins have the final say in which instances that identity is allowed to talk to and can fragment it at will", then Mastodon is over-complicated, unstable, and hostile.

The majority of articles featuring Mastodon emphasize this as a feature (well, that and the custom client thing), but "small groups of people whose only common trait is that they like custom Twitter clients" is not predictive of post quality or quantity, and the fungibility of one's post means coming into conflict with an unstable platform is just that much worse (you can follow a timeline of usernames in art if/as they change simply due to style, something that's not true for hot takes or even semi-long-form text posts like this, so if your instance turns hostile the only thing you have is your username... which can trivially be taken from you.

And I think it's this latter group for which Twitter will continue to have the edge simply because there, usernames are unique, and all notable people post there anyway simply due to audience size. You don't have to worry that your social graph is going to get split in half (and your posts effectively banned from half the network that can see them by default) overnight; stability like that is valuable.
No need to be sorry, I'm aware we answer to our biology (not that I have as deep of an understanding of it as you).

We may be splitting hairs because this stemmed from a comment saying thinking is the most pleasurable thing in the world and you said anyone who thinks that way is lying to themselves.

Through your biological lens I have no choice but to agree, the thing that is most pleasurable in the world is mesolimbic dopamine pathway and the neocortex alignment (or so I'm told).

But through a conversational lens I guess it's all how you get there. And thinking->problem solving->success is a plausible path to get there which is why I disagree with your statement that they are lying to themselves, ignoring the existential truth that we are always lying to ourselves.

If you'd rather `go install` it, that works too! The advantage of this is that it doesn't require users to have go installed. And if you look at the script, all it does is call an API to determine the latest pre-built version for the current OS and install it.
If the service doesn't send you back a string it doesn't send you back a string. End of story. You're continuously trying to complicate the issue by insisting that they're sending strings and that the client needs to guess their encoding. They are not and it does not.
