This is revisionist history.

My Reddit account is 16 years old. I was there in the very early days of the site well before the Digg invasion and well before it gained widespread popularity.

It was never because it allowed anything. It was because it was a much more accessible version of Slashdot. And it was because Digg did their redesign and it ended up with a critical mass of users. Then they started opening up the subreddits and it exploded from there.

The fact that Reddit is growing without that content shows that it wasn't that important to begin with.

Aspartame and asesulfame make my farts smell like literal death - have done so for over a decade, took me a long while to figure out the reason. _Something_ is going on with my gut bacteria and those two.

I could also easily down 1.5 litres of sugar free Pepsi MAX in an afternoon. On the other hand a can of sugar coke is more ... satiating? Can't drink EU-Pepsi at all, because even the sugar version has the two horsemen of the fartocalypse in it =(
What's going on here? I submitted this post a few days ago and I also wrote my comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33420082) at that point. I have a web archive to point it to: http://web.archive.org/web/20221101130830/https://news.ycomb...

Yet this post is currently on the front page and the comment I wrote claims to be from an hour ago?

I’m a casual photographer. I once purchased a $20 digital “toy” camera. I believe I got some of the best pictures I’ve ever taken from that camera. Unfortunately I stored them on a cloud service and they eventually decided to wipe them out.
No because that's not a trademark violation in anyway. Using GPL code in a non GPL project is a violation of copyright law though.
It may have been at the time, if UI responsiveness was important to you.

On the Mac (maybe not a good example because the original one didn’t even have true cooperative multitasking), it certainly helped make opening and closing menus snappy, for example. When you opened a menu, the OS copied the bits behind it, and when it closed, it copied those bits back, without triggering a redraw of those bits. It could do that became it knew nothing would be drawn while the menu was open.

Pre-emptive multitasking also requires code to be re-entrant or to use locks. Re-entrant code uses more memory (can’t use as many globals), and locks slow down code. With memory being scarce and CPUs slow, those were more costly at the time than they are today.

On the other hand, it turned “when do I tell the OS it can run another process now if it wants to do so” into a black art.

> Your code is not in that thing. That thing has merely read your code and adjusted its own generative code.

This is kinda smug, because it overcomplicates things for no reason, and only serves as a faux technocentric strawman. It just muddies the waters for a sane discussion of the topic, which people can participate in without a CS degree.

The AI models of today are very simple to explain: its a product built from code (already regulated, produced by the implementors) and source data (usually works that are protected by copyright and produced by other people). It would be a different product if it didn't have used the training data.

The fact that some outputs are similar enough to source data is circumstantial, and not important other than for small snippets. The elephant in the room is the act of using source data to produce the product, and whether the right to decide that lies with the (already copyright protected) creator or not. That's not something to dismiss.
I wonder how many of those let go have options that need to get exercised with some sort of tax consequences?

> concentrate on making an awesome browser

Is it not? I honestly can't think of anything I'd want it to do more than it already does. I'll be honest, it is difficult to distinguish between browsers these days. But we have holy wars like vim vs emacs, when really the differences are quite small and rather dumb.

The reason I use Firefox is literally three things: 1) I don't want Chrome to have a monopoly, 2) I get ad blocking on my phone, 3) if I'm going to install an ad blocker on my browser, I also want my browser to not be tracking me. I'll be honest, these are the only truly unique features (that I use). Otherwise it is near indistinguishable from Chrome.

I'm happy with FF and while that's still true I don't mind Mozilla branching out. If I wasn't happy, then yeah, there's a priority issue. But honestly, what's so important that's missing? I don't get this holy war. It just seems like war for the sake of war, and no one benefits from that except those on top.
You mean NeXTSTEP, all that makes it unique isn't part of POSIX, and Steve Jobs had a quite clear position on UNIX value for desktop computing.
It definitely could be a good thing.

But it’s like if Doctors Without Borders/MSF started a soup kitchen in DC. Soup kitchens are good things, but if I donate to MSF I want my money to go towards a specific cause, not domestic soup kitchens.

HyperTree Proof Search for Neural Theorem Proving
Pebble's software was second to none. They built an entire operating system and app store, to run on microcontrollers! Multiple orders of magnitude less RAM and power consumption than Android or Apple watches, but the user experience was excellent and the app store had tons of stuff in it.

I once interviewed a candidate who came from Pebble. He had the most impressive interview performance of any candidate I've ever interviewed.
Many of us have been burned by making the assumption that UEFI implementations behave sensibly. Most of the pain points have been ironed out by now, yes, but the lesson I've taken away is: don't assume.
It's served under the terms of my licenses when viewed on GitHub. Both attribution and licenses are shared.

This is like saying GitHub is free to do whatever they want with copyrighted code that's uploaded to their servers, even use it for profit while violating its licenses. According to this logic, Microsoft can distribute software products based on GPL code to users without making the source available to them in violation of the terms of the GPL. Given that Linux is hosted on GitHub, this logic would say that Microsoft is free to base their next version of Windows on Linux without adhering to the GPL and making their source code available to users, which is clearly a violation of the GPL. Copilot doing the same is no different.

This weekend I had a 24-hour hackathon on Twitter and built BoozyBlend

Basically, I wanted a cocktail with the ingredients at home and came up with the idea to build an AI bartender that could give you suggestions on what cocktail to make based on your preferences.

I'm using GPT-3 to generate cocktail recipes and cocktail names.
Let me know what cocktails you get!

From the article:

You would think that!

When firing 14% staff like more than 1000 and decisions are made by handful of people it’s not about who performed better or worse it’s about firing whom will have more impact on reducing spendings and less disruption in software delivery.

I've always liked this tidbit from a family that regularly feeds peanuts in the shell to the local crows.

>she lost a lens cap in a nearby alley while photographing a bald eagle as it circled over the neighbourhood.

She didn't even have to look for it. It was sitting on the edge of the birdbath.

Had the crows returned it? Lisa logged on to her computer and pulled up their bird-cam. There was the crow she suspected. "You can see it bringing it into the yard. Walks it to the birdbath and actually spends time rinsing this lens cap."

Why would corps be forced to use the latest windows version? (Talking about 7/10/11 and not about Updates 22H2/21H2).

Windows 10 will still be supported in a few years [0] and i've always heard from different IT Departments "DON'T UPGRADE TO 11". And i don't know of a large company which have a majority of their computers on Windows 11. (I'm talking about companies i work(ed) at and companies friends/family work at. Maybe these companies are an exception, but I don't think so.)

I would guess most of the Windows 11 users today, were either forced into 11, wanted to use WSA or think the new UI is better for them.

If it does end up that way, I feel like the trickle away from github will become a stampede. And that would be unfortunate. Having such a good hub for sharing and learning code is useful, but only if licenses are respected. If not, people will just hunker down and treat code like the Coke secret recipe. That benefits no one.

No it's actually not.
I think you're underestimating the impact that climate change will have, most importantly from human migration, food shortages, and war (which are secondary impacts of climate change, as opposed to the primary impacts you've listed). But I also think you've underestimated the primary impacts: you're assuming that the rate of change is stable, and it's absolutely not.
I really don't understand how there can be a problem with how Copilot works. Any human just works in the same way. A human is trained on lots and lots of of copyrighted material. Still, what a human produces in the end is not automatically derived work from all the human has seen in his life before.

So, why should an AI be treated different here? I don't understand the argument for this.

I actually see quite some danger in this line of thinking, that there are different copyright rules for an AI compared to a human intelligence. Once you allow for such arbitrary distinction, it will get restricted more and more, much more than humans are, and that will just arbitrarily restrict the usefulness of AI, and effectively be a net negative for the whole humanity.

I think we must really fight against such undertaking, and better educate people on how Copilot actually works, such that no such misunderstanding arises.

You grant them a content display license, not a general code license.

> It's almost as if these highly paid lawyers know what they're doing.

Sure, they wrote the content display license long before CoPilot even existed. Any court will see the intent and not interpret these terms as a code re-licensing.
Say you read a bunch of code, say over years of developer career. What you write is influenced by all that. Will include similar patterns, similar code and identical snippets, knowingly or not. How large does snippet have to be before it's copyright? "x"? "x==1"? "if x==1\n print('x is one')"? [obviously, replace with actual common code like if not found return 404].

Do you want to be vulnerable to copyright litigation for code you write? Can you afford to respond to every lawsuit filed by disgruntled wingbat, large corp wanting to shut down open source / competing project?

> Unlimited PTO also discourages using PTO because nobody wants to be seen as the person taking the most vacation.

That depends on the management. I took more vacation at Netflix than anywhere else (where we had unlimited PTO). But the management made a point of talking about their extended vacations and making sure all the VPs took at least a few weeks of vacation every year to set a good example.

There was no stigma to taking vacation.
The camera is definitely not the least important part. Try taking a picture with an iPhone 4 vs an iPhone 14. No matter how well you compose a picture, poor image quality automatically makes it look bad.
Ok, cool. Presumably that is because it’s smart enough to know that there is only one (public) solution to the constraints you set (like asking it to reproduce licensed code).

Now, while you may be able to get it to reproduce one function. One file, and definitely the whole repository seems extremely unlikely.
For one, giving specific examples gives censured users an excuse to do point-by-point rebuttals. In my experience, point-by-point rebuttals are one of the behaviors that should be considered bad behavior and moderated against because they encourage the participant to think only of each point individually and ignore the superlinear effect of every point taken together. For another, the user can latch on specific examples that seem innocuous out of context and allow them to complain that their censorship was obviously heavy handed, and if the user is remotely well known then it's famous person's word versus random other commenters trying to add context. The ultimate result is that people see supposed problems with moderation far more than anyone ever says "man I sure am glad that user's gone" so there's a general air of resentment against the moderation and belief in its ineffectiveness
This does seem like a pretty compelling rebuttal, since the preceding comment suggests that GPL does nothing to Microsoft's ability to incorporate code into Copilot's model.
>but now Amazon isn't hiring

Amazon is not the only company. There are literally millions of companies out there. They can stop being so delicate and suck it up and work somewhere else than FAANG.

>If you bought a house on a single income but suddenly cannot find a new job paying enough to pay your bills

Have you seen the tv show called x-files? Trust No One. Don't make big financial decisions by depending on someone else. Save enough to save yourself from that kind of trouble and find a job. It doesn't need to be Amazon. Suck it up and survive.

I blame people who cry after making $200k+ and not saving. I blame them for making weird financial decisions and thinking their social status depends on their job titles at certain companies. Life is fast and everchanging. You must trust no one and be self sufficient.

Some of the bad stuff predicted for Brexit happened - lower economic growth, businesses exporting to Europe having problems, queues down the M20, extra paperwork, difficulty getting fruit and veg picked for example. On the other hand some didn't like a house price crash (yet).

An odd side effect I didn't expect is that we got a worse class of politicians as the smart honest ones who were prepared to admit it was a mess didn't get in power and instead we got Boris and Liz who were quite prepared to say any old nonsense to get the job.

Still, onwards and upwards! Maybe.

Can't disclose specifics but if you look around on internet (AWS EDP) you can see organizations that have a certain level of spend have massive discount on egress/S3 storage pricing. Discount on top of the tiered pricing.

My problem is that I use my G Suite Free as a sort-of alias, it all still goes to my main Gmail (that I can't change due to billions of accounts pointing to it) and I then send replies back with the @domain.name identity (and associated SMTP).

I haven't been able to find a service to fill that niche that isn't a whole inbox, but also doesn't feel like some shaky registrar IMAP/SMTP setup. It's definitely a deliverability perk to have Google serve my domain.

Cloudflare have a really nice incoming email redirection feature and I wanted to use it, but they don't support sending emails by design.
I have actually worked in this area. I like a lot of Yishan's other writing but I find this thread mostly a jumbled mess without much insight. Here are a couple assorted points:

>In fact, once again, I challenge you to think about it this way: could you make your content moderation decisions even if you didnʻt understand the language they were being spoken in?

I'm not sure what the big point is here but there are a couple parts to how this works in the real world:

1) Some types of content removal do not need you to understand the language: visual content (images/videos), legal takedowns (DMCA).

2) Big social platforms contract with people around the world in order to get coverage of various popular languages.

3) You can use Google Translate (or other machine translation) to review content in some languages that nobody working in content moderation understands.

But some content that violates the site's policies can easily slip through the cracks if it's in the right less-spoken language. That's just a cost of doing business. The fact that the language is less popular will limit the potential harm but it's certainly not perfect.

>Hereʻs the answer everyone knows: there IS no principled reason for banning spam. We ban spam for purely outcome-based reasons:
>
>It affects the quality of experience for users we care about, and users having a good time on the platform makes it successful.

Well, that's the same principle that underlies all content moderation: "allowing this content is more harmful to the platform than banning it". You can go into all the different reasons why it might be harmful but that's the basic idea and it's not unprincipled at all. And not all spam is banned from all platforms--it could just have its distribution killed or even be left totally alone, depending on the specific cost/benefit analysis at play.

You can apply the same reasoning to every other moderation decision or policy.

The main thrust of the thread seems to be that content moderation is broadly intended to ban negative behavior (abusive language and so on) rather than to censor particular political topics. To that I say, yeah, of course.

FWIW I do think that the big platforms have taken a totally wrong turn in the last few years by expanding into trying to fight "disinformation" and that's led to some specific policies that are easily seen as political (eg policies about election fraud claims or covid denialism). If we're just talking about staying out of this business then sure, give it a go. High-level blabbering about "muh censorship!!!" without discussion of specific policies, is what you get from people like Musk or Sacks, though, and that's best met with an eye roll.
