> The people who would be the targets of Stable Diffusion-generated porn, depictions they did not consent to

Is it just me finding this notion of someone generating nsfw content to show it to other people without their consent really far fetched?

It's about a hundred times more likely they just want it for themselves.

The internet has billions of terrible images. If someone wants to spam awful porn today, they can just do it. No SD necessary.
Not sure what you mean by that but nanosecond precise timing across cpu cores have been reliable for quite a while now.

Aha! Fascinating backstory (:

Cryptopals are freaking awesome. I had so much fun trying to solve those challenges.
Starting at $2000 for a concert where demand outstrips supply to the point where people will pay $4000 to a ticket scalper just means the minimum ticket price will be $2000. All the tickets will still sell out immediately. The audience will be entirely made up of wealthy people, or people who are willing to break the bank to see Taylor sing.

The only "fair" way to sell a good that's in high demand and you want everyone to have the same level of access regardless of their background is a lottery. Tell people what the price is, let them apply for tickets, and sell to people at random. Scalping can be stopped by not allowing people to transfer tickets to other people - people should get a refund in full and their tickets get resold to other people in the lottery if someone changes their mind.

The obvious problem with the lottery approach is that it entirely fails to maximize profit.

Personally, if I was selling tickets, I'd just not sell them "fairly". Accept that tickets are a luxury item, like Ferraris.

"A little copying is better than a little dependency" is not talking about anything that would be solved by generics or metaprogramming, which suggests that you are completely misunderstanding. It's saying to not import a large library if you only need one five line helper function from it. Generics do not help, and the advice could be applied to any programming language.

How about an auction of lottery tickets where the price is fixed but the probability of winning increases over time? Still identity verified so that each person can buy only one ticket and if they win they must attend themselves.
> Also are you upset that people still use hammers in 2022? I guess if we aren't throwing away all of our tools instead of improving on their design we aren't really seeing any Progress

Have you seen the hammers available in 2022? Not shitty $10 at the DIY store hammers, the kind professionals use? They're making hammers out of Titanium. They're engineering the hammers to produce the best trade offs between striking force and rebound, to deliver a tool that's more effective but hurts less to use for a full day's work.

There is a caveat here, it won't stop your app from crashing before the watchdog activation. Some CPUs have fuse that can enable watchdog before any code starts running but the ARMs I played with (STM32) don't appear to have that option.
I’ve lived here for years, not just visited. There are countless restaurants where you get a basic lunch set for ¥500. You’re either going to the wrong places or talking about dinner.

"That’s because it’s impossible for a computer to calculate infinite values. It can get very close to seeing a singularity, but it can’t actually reach it"

Why not?

Is it impossible to calculate infinite values in general? I suspect not, My understanding is that a lot of calculus is in fact on how to calculate infinite values.

And a computer is a universal machine, this means that while it can not calculate everything, it can calculate anything that is calculable.

> But you can not be Turing complete and totally secure (essentially Rice's theorem), and that's the point that I meant to make.

What do you mean by "secure" here?

> A more practical concern with a Turing-complete markup language, even on an airgapped machine whose security is of less significance, is that you can't guarantee halting, and it doesn't matter how fast your markup language compiles if you feed it a document on which it doesn't halt ….

In practice that is less of a problem; you just run the program with some resource limits and timeout, which admittedly turns the system into state machine from pure theoretical viewpoint.
The point is a more general one: deplatforming is censorship in all but name because of coordination. You're gone from Twitter, "go build your own", you do and the CDN blocks you, "go build your own", you do and providers don't peer with you.

I drove older bmw 3 series (e46) for more than decade with manual. Loved it, defended it, it simply gives you much more control over car and onnetion with it, helps you to be split-second precise when ie you need to accelerate hard to get to desired revs. No common automatic transmission works as well on ICE cars. But I reall it took me quite some time to get really good with it,, half a second makes a lot of difference. Then you switch cars ie for vacation and you are almost beginner again since so many changes re pedals resistance, timings, engine torque curves etc change across brands.

Then the car broke down last year and we went for bmw 5 series, which you can't even buy in manual (just to be clear I would never pay full price for these otherwise great cars, rather 20-25% for ca 6 years old).

Its so much easier especially for longer driving. My mental load decreased by up to 50%, with also the help of laser projection of speed, limits and navigation on dashboard. With 2 small kids, having a car thats too sporty is actually a major drawback anyway (so ie Tesla's 0-100 times leave me uninterested, why would one do this to your closest ones), unless driver self-centered a-hole. With family in mind, I wouldn't go back. Sport mode makes it already more agile than I (and rest of family) want, basically 0 lag on gas pedal.
>The sad part is that it doesn't have to be this way. The notion that friendship is something you make time for (to the detriment of your other pursuits) seems to be very modern, very Western and an absolutely terrible idea.

Why wouldn't it though? Ultimately speaking time is a finite resource for an individual. If one's pursuits or responsibilities do not align with the pursuits of your friend, then why wouldn't one need pick between expending one's time with said friend vs other callings?
General Practice medicine seems to come close enough. No differences in patient outcomes between physicians and nurse practitioners.

> Randomised controlled trial comparing cost effectiveness of general practitioners and nurse practitioners in primary care

> Results: Nurse practitioner consultations were significantly longer than those of the general practitioners (11.57 v 7.28 min; adjusted difference 4.20, 95% confidence interval 2.98 to 5.41), and nurses carried out more tests (8.7% v 5.6% of patients; odds ratio 1.66, 95% confidence interval 1.04 to 2.66) and asked patients to return more often (37.2% v 24.8%; 1.93, 1.36 to 2.73). There was no significant difference in patterns of prescribing or health status outcome for the two groups. Patients were more satisfied with nurse practitioner consultations (mean score 4.40 v 4.24 for general practitioners; adjusted difference 0.18, 0.092 to 0.257). This difference remained after consultation length was controlled for. There was no significant difference in health service costs (nurse practitioner £18.11 v general practitioner £20.70; adjusted difference £2.33, −£1.62 to £6.28).

I need to buy non-refundable hotels, train tickets, childcare, plus book time off work. Finding out whether all that's necessary with a few hours notice doesn't work.

If you could do something like this for some large proportion of the tickets, and give a month's notice, it might work.

> Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought "automatic transmission" refers to one with a torque converter, and DCT is its own thing.

AT is "the car changes gears".

Sometimes a distinction is made between AMT and others because AMT is kinda shit, but both DCT and torque are AT.

Also modern torque converters have lock-up clutches, meaning once they've switched gear they've got the same direct-coupling efficiency as a DCT. The ZF8 mentioned by Klonoar is a torque converter.
I thought the idea sounded interesting, but it appears to be very narrowly focused on the problem of "I'd like to write something in [German], but I don't know [German] all that well". I'm more interested in the problem of "I'd like to read something in [German]". The "right way" to solve the problem of knowing how to write something in German is, unfortunately, to read several dozen examples of people writing similar things.

Dictionary entries are complex things. (Well, often they aren't, but they should be. The amount of information one dictionary entry needs to provide is quite large.) I don't see a lot of value in having the editor pop up abbreviated dictionary entries for words that I know I need to look up. If I know that, I can look up the word in a high-quality dictionary and benefit from a much fuller entry.
In practice it's not an issue and is quite sensible/intuitive how it works, at least for English speakers.

> The proof is not a social construct.

> The truth is.

Yeah, that is how it feels like nowadays, however the truth is bound in a narrow set of assumptions. These assumptions are bound in reality even in mathematics (One apple is one apple, you add another one, you have two). And while there is an epistemologic level to reality, you would dismiss reality entirely by calling it a social construct.

The details of how a truth is communicated is in a sense a social contruct, because communication as a whole is, however nobody would call it like that. It is maybe a small reminder that meddling with language for no apparent reason is a warning sign, but this is going a bit off-topic.

I will start to sound like a broken record soon but blockchain has provided a wealth of information about “fair” distribution games and their downfalls.

The NFT summer of 2021 saw first come first serve distros gamed by parties with superior network positioning.

Dutch auctions (from the article) strongly favored the wealthy buyers not fans or parties who “pay” with other things of value like their time.

Lotteries were easily games by sock puppets.

Lotteries with “strong” identity verification created grey markets for identities. Think about mechanical Turk but peoples task is to get a lottery ticket and remit the winnings.

People tried social credit systems where participating in community activities like discords earned you the spot in line. Again, services arose to farm these spots.

Fascinating microcosm of human behavior.

I agree with commenters that suggest refundable non-transferable tickets however, for goods this scarce where a secondary market is valuable, I don’t think we have a simple good solution.

The cloud is great when you are starting out, but at scale you are going to hemorrhage money. This is why it's dangerous to tie yourself to all those cloud "toys" and then rapidly expand.

If I just want to have my own little home page, a micro EC2 instance will do just fine - I don't want to go to a colocation for that.

Once you are at scale, you need to get out of the cloud. I agree with DHH on this.

It does not have to use floating point numbers, while floating point numbers are hardware accelerated and thus very fast, there are infinite precision number libraries.

> In a nutshell, git has an unintuitive and unfriendly CLI with bad defaults.

I see this claim often, but it never is accompanied by evidence or any concrete example.

I've been using Git for years and I never noticed any semblance of unintuitiveness or bad defaults. Everything in the happy path is straight-forward, and all obscure things are a quick googling away.

Do you actually have any concrete example to back your claims? What's the absolute best example you can come up with of said unintuitiveness and unfriendliness?

> One of the subtler features of my DSG vehicle is that on most downhills it will automatically downshift to maintain speed. On a really steep hill it will start to race, but feathering the brake for 5-10 seconds will convince it to downshift once more. I haven't driven it in the mountains hardly ever, but that's one area where manuals often win out - no melted brake pads, no heat-warped calipers.

Can't you just tell the car to downshift using paddles, or force it into low gear using a gear limiter feature?

Well if "1+1=2" is a social construct then "there are planets, stars, and, in general, objects" is also a social construct.

Built MaNGOS in 2004/2005 with a bunch of other people as the first Open Source World of Warcaft server. Over the years it was the biggest project on Github for a while, even trumping projects like Ruby on Rails in forks and at some point most if not all private servers were using it.

Eventually Nostalrius forked it, slapped marketing and a website on it, became huge and those guys got to visit Blizzard Entertainment, in the end leading to Blizzard finally giving in an providing World of Warcaft Classic as a service.

Cost me tons of money to keep the project running because we were constantly under attacks from god knows who and in the end burned me out after a decade of doing this.

To this day private servers are using it, and probably six figures of people play on those.
IBM released their A2I and A2O cores https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_A2 open source https://github.com/openpower-cores/
