I assumed the verification fee serves a different purpose to gathering revenue: the cost to buy influence could go up by an order of magnitude. Economics will neuter the bots.

Everyone working at the IRA.ru troll farm now needs to be issued with (even more) stolen payment credentials and monthly costs go up by $8 per troll account.

Even worse, recruiting useful idiots — unwitting members of the public who are aligned with the troll message and who voluntarily amplify misinformation — is going to get much harder. Now you don’t just need Average Joe to retweet your carefully worded calls-to-action about missing emails or stolen elections. You need him to pay $8 a month too.
Helm Farewell
It's a fairly common occurrence (I think) that when you are running a query against some store and there is nothing to filter by, you get all the results back. Now the client has to sift through the result set and find products with an empty feature list on the receiving end.

The fix is to add a "no features" placeholder feature and look for it when you are trying to find plans without any features.
After Elon replied, a user came up with this gem:

"Only on Twitter can we watch a man worth $200 billion negotiate with a man worth $500 million about saving $12 a month"
Just tried this, and it appears to cause a very significant lag (~2 sec) after each shell command. Removing the sourcing of the config from bashrc and opening a new shell immediately gets rid of the lag. Maybe it's because I have HISTSIZE set to a large value...
The old "town square" worked fairly well...for a bunch of people who already had a lot of other social ties, shared social norms, and were (socially) pretty heavily invested in their communities. When those other conditions were not met (say, Saturday night and a crowd of cowboys from a cattle drive, or laborers from a nearby RR construction project, or ...), then the old town square absolutely did NOT work for the good, long-term locals.

On the internet, enforcing the preconditions needed for the town square to work well is difficult at best.

> Some dude just paid $44B for Twitter. v

Yeah, but that did a hasty negotiation that resulted in a no-due-diligence contract at that figure, tried very hard to escape the deal, including openly repudiating it and being sued to be forced to consummate it, and only relented and agreed to close on it in the face of court action to force him to which might have imposed additional costs as well.

So, while it is probably worth something, we can say that it is pretty clearly not worth $44B in the clear light of day, even to Musk.
It's even worse than that, since that's the effect over 100 years and we don't have 100 years. Over 20 years, 1 ton of methane is equivalent to about 80 tons of CO2 (compared to ~25 tons over 100 years), so about 3x worse than your numbers.
I'm actually seeing plenty of new images that are in the same style but are different from any of the images in the train set, like wonder woman in front of a mountain that looks like the setting of "frozen".
Thanks for your suggestion. The reason why Ive commented about it isnt because I have a persecution fantasy, but because the community deserves to know this is going on and if anyones similarly been affected that they arent alone.

> There’s not enough “room” to produce interesting content solely on Twitter

While I think that Musk’s plan is going to backfire, it is worth noting that he tries to address this in a narrow respect, in that paid users under the new plan would be able to distribute longer video/audio content with tweets.

At its core, Elixir is effectively a wrapper of Erlang but with small tweaks/wrappers of the core library, Ruby-ish syntax, piping with `|>`, Mix project management, Hex package management, ExUnit for testing, and several other quality of life improvements. Elixir can easily call Erlang code, which is not easy the other way around. The biggest difference is that Elixir has a vibrant community, big projects like Phoenix, LiveView, and Livebook.

I think it is because you want an acknowledgement that the recipient listened to your voicemail and will follow through. Without them calling back you will be in the dark. Also, for cases like exemplified with, email is probably better. Calling to talk is for more complex stuff that requires a conversation.

And by saying that, do not you get a vibe that makes you go "Wait a minute there...".

It makes more sense to discriminate "personal common spaces" and "The Public Statements of Sam Artist / of Noam Thinker / of Henry Statesman / of Theodor Ruler".

You are absolutely right, of course. It just does mean I expect Microsoft to not spend effort to hinder the possibilities.

Look at the inputs and outputs of generative AI art - specifically the ones shown in the post and others. The disconnect here is not our insights on copyright law (At least not for generative art. Maybe for copilot, code, and GPT3, but not for the art.) Hollie is a Character Artist. A Character has a combination of appearance, emotional radiance, mood, behavior, that have to fit in to create a unique persona and trigger an emotional response to that character from viewers. Stable Diffusion does not take or copy her characters - it mimics her drawing style in colors, hues (it reads what pixels are proximate to what other pixels and tries to apply that proximity to similar colors, line patterns in the future). When you create a stable diffusion image, you set a parameter of how much randomness to apply and how much variety, and what else to mix in. So any content it's trained on becomes a soup of colors and lines and hues and saturation. So if Hollie draws with de-saturated colors, and favors pinks and greens, an image produced with her name will probably have that, but not more than a soup mixed with objects searched by the words of the generator human. Code generation is different as a code has to appear in some form to work properly and that happens with a lot less variance, so generators there would likely remix a LOT more of the original, but images have a much much wider variance unless you ask specifically for as many keywords as possible (aka Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci) in which case you'd fall under trademark law as well probably (Which is also why Microsoft added trademarked images on their CDs so they could prosecute infringers easier).
Just to imagine how some good might come out of this for Hollie. Lots of famous artists' original works are very valuable, even though they have a lot of imitators. No matter how many hours of GPU time you have, you can't produce an original work by Hollie Mengert. Maybe the AI content firehose could act to enhance her reputation?

Maybe artists will start training their own AI replacements. At least then they'll control it in some sense, and perhaps they could rent it out to people.
Apple? The company that added a notch to a laptop? :-))
Thing is there are a lot of old people.
Because phones aren't allowed to have bezels anymore for some reason, I'm constantly hanging up on people because there's no room for a proximity sensor to turn off the screen so my cheek presses the "hang up" button. It tries to use the front camera as a makeshift sensor, but it doesn't work very well.

Recently I reacted with incredulity when the people on the other end could properly hear me through a newly-connected Bluetooth device -- it's more jarring to me when this stuff doesn't fail.
Before Django there was Zope.

Zope and a saner alternative to Perl were the two main reasons to care about Python in 2000.
I don't care much about Twitter, I didn't like the way the platform was policed, I didn't like the sheer amount of bots and for sure I didn't like the limit on text messages.

But it seems reasonable for an app having payd and free tiers, with the free tiers being add supported.

Somehow the app has to pay bills and staff.

If I'll find Twitter of any use at some point in time, I will pay $8 if that will yield some benefits over free tier.

Some people can't afford to pay or don't want to, which is why there is also a free tier. It isn't like Musk forces everyone to pay, but if you derive some value from Twitter it is normal to pay.

I guess some people hate Musk and they are going to great lengths to justify their hate coming with puerile reasons about why Twitter suddenly became 'bad' and predicting it a quick death.
This article offers no new information. I actually went back and looked at the date, thinking it was published several years ago. But no, Nov ‘22. Pass

> It's a bit like saying we can't stop music piracy, now that Napster exists.

Curious choice of example, because it was never stopped. It just went somewhat out of the mainstream because the industry offered pricing options, like Spotify, who were acceptable for most people so they no longer had an incentive to resort to piracy. Not wanting to pay at all was always a minority position, most people just found it ludicrous to pay full album price for one of two songs that they liked.

And still, if you do want song X for free you can still obtain it easily. The industry just no longer makes a fuss about it.
GitHub owns and operates npm, so they certainly have the authority and ability to enforce it. I doubt requiring the same of packages hosted elsewhere is feasible.

“Dictated but not read”

Dale Carnegie’s “How To Win Friends and Influence People” has an anecdote about him writing that as kid to some person he wanted to impress, and it predictably having the opposite effect.

That’s not entirely true, but for many of the ones that aren’t, blue checks and verification are often very much not in their interests.
“Ugh. Okay, okay, just a second. I have to get my earphones to connect. Damn it.”

This has never happened to me - using either wired headphones or AirPods which connect rather seamlessly to the phone even mid-call. Just get headphones that work well with your phone’s model.

The whole article sounds very “millennials discover telephony” to me - either that or the author is in way over their head and don’t really know how to use the smorgasbord of devices they appear to have maneuvered themselves into.
I'm focussing on a single aspect of multi-cloud strategies: a multi-cloud strategy with a single cloud. A strategy is important insofar that it documents considerations of your organisation and delineates intent. A conscious decision (which states its reasons) to not follow a multi-cloud approach is still a multi-cloud strategy, albeit a trivial one. A single-cloud strategy which mandates that the technology architecture uses Kubernetes and Terraform and that applications are built cloud-native is still a multi-cloud strategy because it prepares the organisation for multi-cloud use.
Getting? It is already there, I think I would have better luck in Ask Jeaves and Altavista than what Google gives me.
I was thinking the same. At this point it's hard for me to believe that a programming language can provide that much productivity. You always find counter arguments from people who have worked in very large teams that use language-in-question. The counter arguments also tend to over-correct - just because one company has a mess written in <lang> doesn't mean <lang> is bad.

I've been writing a lot of plain JS in my free time lately and it's been awesome. Just like the article, I've written all kinds of things in it and it's been a breeze. I don't think this is because JS is great - it's just because I have a lot of practice and I don't have to worry about real business requirements, deadlines, other people, or other people's code. If these side projects of mine became team projects where each member has varying skills, interests, and experiences, I'm sure it'd become a mess - especially if I quit!

Deaths attributed to covid were almost entirely "with covid" and not "from covid". The average age of the fatalities was at or above the average age at which people ordinarily passed pre-covid and nearly all suffered from multiple serious comorbidities that would have been sufficient in themselves to precipitate one of any number of individual health crises that would have led to their passing.

Much of the government response, particularly at the federal level, was aimed at terrorizing the public and, when they came online, coercing mostly low-risk people into submitting to experimental, liability-free vaccines that don't prevent spread and so do nothing to protect genuinely high-risk people. The government also financially incentivized refusal to treat covid in its early stages (allowing the patients to either recover on their own or, for elderly and already chronically ill, to become sicker), place patients on ventilators, and prescribe dangerous experimental treatments like Remdesivir that contributed to the death tallies.

The federal government's meddling in some states' distribution of monoclonal antibody treatments was especially pernicious. Lawsuits targeting hospitals, local and state governments, and the federal governments for their conduct (everything from propagandizing to causing or contributing to deaths as in the use of Remdesivir) during the pandemic are in process throughout the United States now.

> to this day, working 60 hours a week for a place where you can arbitrary push code into production and see what happens IS ALWAYS going to be more fun and rewarding than sitting in a team meeting reviewing the wording on BRDs for 20 hours a week.

This only works for subscale businesses. Once a company becomes big enough, that kind of approach ends up causing production outages, private data spillage, or PR / customer / regulatory shitstorms about changes that went in without anyone else being briefed about them. It's fine if you don't have a lot of demanding users or social relevance but I don't think this would be a wise direction for something the size of Twitter
And why do you think they did that? Perhaps the aforementioned ctrl+c ctrl+v?
I think that's fine for the employee (great, really: long-term paid vacation!), but if the goal is to create the "next Silicon Valley" or whatever, then allowing paid non-competes is going to work against that goal. You want an employee to get excited about striking out on their own and starting a company, immediately after quitting their old job (or, hell, before quitting their old job, as some SV founders do). Allowing their previous employer to delay that by 6, 12, 18 months (or whatever) isn't great for the entrepreneurial spirit.
Now I need a tool to help me remember this app...
> > So you want to instead do the exact opposite – ask the consumers to pay and fund your creators with that money.

OnlyFans is not (by far) the only site that has a business model of “consumers purchase from producers and the site rakes in a share from that”, nor even the only one (again, by far) with that model where what is purchased is digital content.
Define “old” :)

Also even those of us who don’t ca that much, do receive calls since some entities still prefer to call you (government, medical, education). It’s either that or snail mail - despite the fact that most of them have my email address.

It wouldn't be similar at all. It takes years to get skills good enough to even copy stuff like that. With AI person who never did any art in their lives can get hundreds of copies in few hours.

AI acts like an alien more than a copier in that case. If you tell stable diffusion to make you clip-art of people in a conference room, you will probably see humans that don't have noses or fingers, or have 4 arms and some unreadable text that looks like a watermark going across them. The AI parameters have been trained on millions of clip-art images and assume the image should have whatever statistically applies to most images that have the same keywords on them. You can't make it copy an image, even if you tried. You can't even get it to fix the face or hands without additional processing with differently trained models. It sees as an alien would.

I am afraid that rise of generative AI will result in a lot of junk being released and advertised as quality.

It shouldn't be like so, I think generative AI can yield great results if there is enough human supervision, I think it can be great if used to augmenting creative work. But I think many will chose the shortest path towards money and they will put in the least amount of work possible.

Imagine tens of thousands of movies spitted by AI based on sub mediocre screenplays, imagine millions of songs generated by AI based on sub mediocre lyrics.

Somewhere, in that ocean of junk, there is something valuable. Good luck finding it.

If we use CGI analogy I can say that all pre CGI Tom and Jerry cartoons are works of art but many of the cartoons released after aren't so great, while some are. And CGI still requires some effort, so not everyone is be able to release movies. Generative AI will require far less effort and knowledge.
turns into a 2 minute long voicemail that is physically painful to listen to

Not like it's any less painful on a live call. I wish I had a setting to automatically tase anyone who calls me and when I answer the first thing they want to know is what I'm doing. As if it's up to them to judge whether what I'm doing is more important than whatever bullshit they've called me up for. You tell me what you need and then I will tell you if and when I can do it. Sooner or later I'm going to start answering these people honestly. "Oh, nothing much Sharon, just browsing some naked anime women."
