The place is San Casciano dei Bagni[1], not San Casciano.
They're different places, the first is close to Siena, the second is near Pisa.

Don't get confused, there are several different San Casciano. There's also San Casciano in Val di Pesa[2] near Florence.

If you go there I also suggest going to Radicofani[3], it should be around 20 minutes from there by car.

The place is not easy to reach by public transport, I suggest taking a car. It's worth it though. :)

Just because machine learning uses the word “learning” doesn’t mean it “learns” in the same way a human mind does — that analogy is doing a lot of load bearing in your argument, and needs proving why the program’s nature of creative remixing (for lack of a better word) is the same as a human’s. Right now it seems like you’re just reusing the same word for two phenomena we don’t understand, and therefore claiming they’re equivalent.

See Marvin Minsky’s comment regarding “suitcase words”.
Google doesn't use page rank anymore. They have a signal called navboost which is the strongest signal in ranking and retrieval. And that idea originates from Yahoo paper in which they revealed the gems of search engine algorithms: https://www.kdd.org/kdd2016/papers/files/adf0361-yinA.pdf
Freedom and human rights weren't invented and aren't exclusive to America, as for spreading democracy I find the track record more horrific than corny.

You do not currently have control over your culture and values, you said yourself you're glad America exported its values to your country and exposed you to them. Good or bad, it should be clear you're not living in a vacuum with absolute control over what you see and believe.

If you adopt a free-market attitude to these questions you will end up being controlled by whoever has the most money and the worst morals, companies and people who will prey on our worst instincts, algorithms which reward anger and division, which prey on addiction triggers and so on. The content you consume will be controlled to present you with ideas, news and perspectives that are politically and economically advantageous to their country, and often contrary to the best interests of your own.

And to be clear there is no dichotomy between the status-quo and censorship. There is a million alternatives, the Digital Markets Act for example is a good start that should begin to break up social monopolies and companies which abuse network effects. Digital sovereignty just means you make available alternative tools to your population which are free of foreign influence.

Is CoPilot just trained on OSS, or on private repos too?
Wrong!

At the point of creation something is granted copyright.

Publishers in literature and music are right assholes who’ve created this system. Little middle men rent seeking.

It does need reform but it is for the creators that’s why it’s tied to the creator and not date of publication. Fix your perspective buckaroo
Mastodon could go either way, but i think as an experiment its sufficiently differentiated to warrant a rethink on how social media should be. Only a couple of years back Mastodon UX was too poor to be usable, but it has grown leaps and bounds now.

Mastodon might not be the next twitter, but maybe it has already succeeded as a refuge for people not wanting to be on twitter. The bigger problem mastodon has is that its servers are running full to take on new people.

We have been running a few instances of mastodon which now have more space for new users. Link in my bio if anyone wants to use them, but might run out anytime.
I actually think that no matter how good their hardware is, their effort to completely control the software platform will sink them.

My best hope is that Facebook develops a lot of neat tech and then fumbles and fails, and finally exits the space, and in the vacuum companies like Samsung and others drop more general purpose platforms that allow freedom on the software side.

> Cut the AI off humans' work, let it interact with the real world and see what it produces. It will be nothing.

That "experiment" could just as well be done on humans, though, cut them off of any work that any human has done before and you may get simple cave paintings, if you're lucky.
We added experimental support for WebKit [0]. It uses PW WebKit under the hood (as mentioned in the blog post). Disclosure: I work on Cypress (but I did not work on the WebKit feature). Firefox works great with Cypress.

Cypress definitely has some limitations, like any other tool, such as only supporting JS-based test. Playwright is definitely a great tool, too. I like them both for different reasons :)

Super cool, but to be fair to the author, Clicking does seem easier still.
Twitter’s model is between an individual and their followers, which is bad for organisations because the individual leaves and takes the followers with them.

Mastodon allows companies to own those relationships on their server.

For example, I can have the BBC Mastodon server, and all the accounts are @bbc. If the employee leaves, they lose the account. The BBC can do their own moderation, but still be connected. Smaller organisations can do to the same for customer support. They can own the advertising and the UI. And if Mastodon goes weird, they can take their URL with them. They can add their own plugins rather than being dependent on the API.

I think this is a big reason why Mastodon is getting attention, rather than simply being an alternative place for cool kids to hang out.
Are people really depending on Open Source for Economics?

Open Source is not a business model, and that should be obvious. It's a distribution model, which has nothing to do with economics. Sure, it may affect a few variables but marketing and sales strategy are what matter more.
Not to mention that we actually have no idea which unit comes to the other side of that equation, after "x".
What you are saying is absolutely true. The problem is that not everyone is going to think this way. Not having something is easy, but not having something after you had it is hard. The only way to keep the living standard high is actually technology, especially robotics. I am both pessimistic and optimistic on this. I can see a bright future for mankind slaving robotics, but I can also see technology will be guarded as weapons. The same reason in this world we have abundant stuffs and we also have people lacking of basic electricity.
Unless it's rigidly self-hosted compiler for your own language, I have a feeling it still depends on other projects a lot.

Show HN: Practice for Your YC Interviews with Betafi
Hi folks,

Betafi is a product feedback platform build around moderated user interviews and usability testing sessions.

To help folks applying for the W23 batch with interviews coming up this week, we just launched a project templates feature and catered onboarding for fellow founders to practice and conduct mock YC interviews with each other.

You can use Betafi's interview script feature, "instant tags," and timestamped notes to take turns annotating rough spots and practicing rapid-fire responses to questions with your cofounder(s), to try and make the most out of those 10 minutes during your real YC interview.

A big part of the joy of building Betafi is getting to support other early-stage founders who wind up using our product in interesting and creative ways.

This project came out of several teams applying to the W23 batch, who organically started using Betafi to help prepare for their interviews, so we thought we might as well build "first class" support for it!

Do let us know what you think, keen to hear your feedback, especially given this is a slightly different use-case from what we initially designed the product for!
Reach out to the author, they can likely fix this easily.
I have ~400KLOC changed on GitHub. 1% of the time happens multiple times a day given scale.

Pragmatically, people are already knowingly committing commercially viable copyright violations of my work. I'd rather it wasn't encouraged further by a US-based 'big tech', especially if the people using my code aren't aware that they're doing anything questionable.

Some months, I earn over 100x less from OSS than I would in industry. I don't want people taking advantage any more than I'm comfortable with, especially for commercial purposes.
Good, first time he's actually doing something, instead of spying on regular people and torturing them or something. +1

The fact that the most successful ideas&products weren't born in such places might cast a shadow on the attractiveness of this perspective. I think that without a challenege the mind is at risk of atrophy.
The tray app is optional so you can still have the engine (podman machine on Windows/macOS) running without any UI.

What other way there is to tell someone that they are wrong then, well, telling them?
Same in Lithuania.

We even had a "Black Lives Matter" rally here, when things were happening in USA. Media reported on it, mostly Lithuanian teens showed up, some skipped school to attend. I don't think there was a single black person. They even had some signs against police brutality, when in Lithuania most of incidents happen not by police but to police.

I went deep into that for back research on my most recent article
https://siliconfolklore.com/internet-history/

I'll revisit it soon for something else I'm sure. Maybe the Douglas Rushkoff Cyberia world where this tech scene was entangled with the most hedonistic strains of new-ageism and overly indulgent on psychotropics - where a burner rambling about their dreams who won't live to see Y2K is somehow in the same car with a 25 year old stanford grad who just made $10 million and maybe just maybe how these ways of meaning somehow re-emerged together 20 years later to build the modern far right.

That's not my theory here btw, that's what I've been hearing from the journalists that covered it in the 90s. Pulling those narratives together from an outsider perspective using primary source material ... that's my offer.
I had this issue too, are you using React? The problem I was having was to do with React re-rendering out of step with Cypress (which was going *too* fast).

I find Copilot most useful for filling out debug statements such as this:

It almost always writes what I would have. How DARE I steal from open source contributors like that?!
Folks knock on CCP's overzealous suppression of political news for political serenity, but it some virtues:

>Japanese users have compared this list to previous days where almost all trending topics were political in nature. The user who posted the list called the new trends “peaceful” and joked about how the curation team must have spend their time “sorting out topics like this every day”.

I've argued TikTok/Douyin's success is pushing peaceful content - stuff that survives the crucibles of PRC censorship - which unsurprisingly has mass appeal vs polarizing fringe shit fests. Obviously not all platforms should moderate like this, and hopefully not twitter, but it has it's "enjoyers".
Not the same, but interesting nevertheless. I saw similar tools for vim when I was researching enso. I can't find the plugin now, but the poor man's version is this:

:set scrolloff=999

I like the typewriter scroll approach because it allows you not to move your eyes when writing.

I was thinking about "anchoring" not the current line, but the current word. Should take a few seconds to prototype.
That is what I said. It is for people who want an echo chamber.

> I mean seriously, what if twitter turned out to be a bad idea?

Twitter fills a void where there is no real alternative. How can it be a bad idea? If you are morally opposed to it or something don't use it.
It's not about the user having to see ads. It's about Netflix trying to sell ad spots to advertisers, which might affect all (even paying) users. I.e. by getting pressured into censoring or promiting certain shows, to close the advertising deal.

It seems that some people take societal change as an attack on who they are as a person.

Calling a mixed group "guys" isn't that big of a deal. But considering how computer science skews heavily towards men, it sounds tone deaf to double down when asked not do it. Because you'll have teams with one or two women for a dozen men, and because these women have been in groups with similar women/men ratios their whole careers, we need to make extra efforts to make sure they feel included.

It's not going to fix the gender disparity on its own. It's just a small effort to show some good will.

This is not a good hill to die on. I expected a more nuanced take on Hacker News.
Or like in magic eventually somebody else will figure it out if it’s really basic at the fundamentals.

Just on public repositories, as far as I know, however regardless of license.

There are GPL repositories which force you to open your code, which is one aspect, and there are "source available" repositories, which allows you to see the code, but forbids everything else.

There are a lot of blurry areas about this, and in my opinion, an AI learns like a human is not a solid basis for fair use.

On the other hand, if private repositories are crawled too, this would be very, very bad.
I agree - it's problematic enough that licensing information gets lost in the Copilot process, but as is we basically have developers contributing their time and expertise, for free, to the development of Microsoft's new paid proprietary product. Worse still, if Copilot is as revolutionary as some people make it out to be, those same developers are inadvertently helping Microsoft build a monopoly in a new market, with all the disastrous consequences that entails.

This post is fascinating- it uses "I" and "We" so interchangeably that it is almost dizzying.

I want to ask them: what do you want? If you run your own Mastodon server you have a large degree of control over how that is run and federates, so can customise your experience. To continue the analogy, you can stop people invading your house party.

Then there is the cultural lamentation and the "no-one asked if I wanted that" line, which is wild because cross-posting has been around for as long as there have been platforms. It just happens.

podman itself allows to play some subset of kubernetes files with the kube play command if you want to just use containers (no cluster required)

Podman Desktop is planning also to bring a Kubernetes cluster very easily.
For now you can deploy to an existing Kubernetes cluster the Pod (set of containers that Podman provides) and you can also switch your current context from the tray icon.
As I understand it, for anything to go on the Blockchain, somebody has to be mining coins. Who will still be doing that? Or, have I misunderstood?
Facebook (Meta), as well as Google, are truly evil companies in my view.

I cannot muster much empathy for the layoffs. They work for a moral bankrupt company whose impact on the internet, or even the whole world, is extremely negative.

Data stealing and selling, addicting gambling patterns, monopoly building, selling information space to the highest bidders. The list goes on and on.

Also the impact on the internet and communication tech cannot be overstated, facebook and Google set the precedent and brought down moral barriers. Nowadays, every other company tries to copy them and mine your data to make money off it.

Unlike Google, Facebook did not even start with the good intentions a la "Don't be evil.", to bring value to the world.
Zuckerberg, right after facebook took off, allegedly said that famous quote about the users and their willingness to trust him and his companies to be "dumbfucks" for doing it. I agree. But to add, not the person trusting is the problem, the person abusing that trust is. That's basically the main business model of facebook as well as Google and some others. Manipulating users to share more, making users addicted, abusing trust, constantly spying on you and selling your secrets.

The world is better off if Facebook will go down is my opinion.
He means a tech product company.

Most other billion dollar Indian tech companies are in the IT outsourcing business.

Here's a tail-recursive function. To be honest I would have started writing this version first, the acc pattern is ubiquitous. Sorry for the mistakes, I'm on mobile:

def zip(a, b) do
zip(a, b, [])
end

def zip([], _, acc), do: acc

def zip(_, [], acc), do: acc

def zip([a | a_rest], [b | b_rest], acc) do
zip(a_rest, b_rest, [{a,b}|acc])
end

Also, there's Enum.zip/2 in the standard library, with the bonus that it works with any Enumerable type (lists, maps, lazy streams, etc,)

> It does need reform but it is for the creators

No, under the US Constitution it is for a specified public benefit as its purpose, the private benefit is a mechanism to achieve that.

Under the Statute of Anne, it was nominally for creators (but this was lobbied for by printers after the expiration of earlier laws, and they were the prime beneficiaries in practice.)

The earlier laws were explicitly for printers.

It looks like the AR glasses will depend on an external compute device, like the phone. If Facebook had invested more into their phone product, they would have a much easier time to compete against Apple/Google. Funny to think that they for a small amount of their VR investment (31b) they could have bought Xiaomi which would have given them a platform to expand on.
> Exchanges are everything that's wrong with this space.

Exchanges have provided the necessary convenience for mass adoption, providing a way to get your magic beans in exchange for real money without much hassle. Decentralized systems are inherently more complicated than centralized ones and have a harder time gaining traction in the general population (see Mastodon's adoption in the wake of Twitter's turmoil).
Trout is a "notably unsuccessful author of paperback science fiction novels."

"The impetus to create Kilgore Trout as a character, Vonnegut suggested in a 1979 NYPR interview, was the convenience it offered to turn science-fiction plots into humorous parables. "Kilgore Trout was more or less invented by a friend of mine, Knox Burger, who was my editor in the early days. He did not suggest that I do this, but he said, 'You know, the problem with science-fiction? It’s much more fun to hear someone tell the story of the book than to read the story itself.' And it’s true: If you paraphrase a science-fiction story, it comes out as a very elegant joke, and it’s over in a minute or so. It’s a tedious business to read all the surrounding material. So I started summarizing [them], and I suppose I’ve now summarized 50 novels I will never have to write, and spared people the reading of them."

Hello,

I’m looking for remote work as a virtual assistant, SDR, photo/video editor, etc. Even only one hour of work every few weeks is OK, but I would like it more if I have clients who can give me at least a few hours of work every week. I'm very flexible about pay (I'm hoping to make $10-$15/hr but I will accept less than that if necessary).
