Presumably fly will be keeping `fly.dev` around? Perhaps you're in a good place to make a fuss about this given your commercial usage of a "cool" .dev domain.

Just wanted to reply that I love your site. Every 6 months or so, I forget what it's called but the demo of Jack Sparrow and the rotoscoped chase sequence always brings me back! I'll scour HN for a while hope I remember.

After my most recent forgotten event, I did bookmark it and now I have this comment. Hopefully I can remember now. :)
I could also say that big cities are (outside of certain expensive neighborhoods and business districts) burnt out hell-holes full of organized crime, refuse, homelessness, pollution, traffic, soulless concrete buildings, and people who don't give a damn about you.

Even though there's truth in all of that (cities are plagued by these problems) it's an overly pessimistic take and is not equally applicable in all cases.

So too with your description of small towns.
Show HN: ChatGPT but for Rap Battles
I made a thing!
I made something I thought was fun with the latest OpenAI GPT 3.5 model.

It lets you rap battle against famous figures (Abraham Lincoln, Kim Kardashian etc) or against a generic A.I. You can also generate rap lyrics about any topic.

I've set it to give away 180 words for free so you can try it out, you'll have to confirm your email for this.

Hope you have fun :)
I've never heard of .sbs. What does it mean? In junior high after P.E. class we would joke that we had SBS - sweaty ball syndrome - that acronym has always stuck with my friends.
You can never truly own anything. Even a hut in the forest will have property and municipal taxes attached to it. With domains it's really about who you are "renting" it from. For example many country TLDs are run by government-affiliated organizations so you can feel pretty safe that you can at least get a fair treatment in any dispute. With generic TLDs I'd generally try to stay away for serious projects.
Not all motorways are made equal, and that may play a role as well.
I frequently drive over French, Italian, German motorways and can say the quality and maintenance of the road vary greatly between European countries.

Eventually, I see so many other factors that could enter the picture that I’m wondering if that comparison makes any sense at all (apart from proving the writer is trying to force his point?).
Yes. Happened to me the other day.
> I mean, if the .com registry said to Google “renewals are $10B for Google.com or we let someone else have the domain”, that would border on extortion.

I don't think it would be extortion, it would just be Verisign breaching their agreement with ICANN.

> People build brands on these, and it’s odd that you can’t permanently buy one or at least have a predictable cap on price increases.

I think you could have those things if you use services that are backed with appropriate contracts or regulations. It's more odd that people would build their brand using a company that is not known for providing stable, consistent, long term products and services.
> It's an arbitrary system that benefits certain people at the expense of others, and is just as natural as feudalism, monarchism, etc.

Yeah, but for a person coming into it, it sure is a hell of a lot easier to just earn a wage and buy existing goods, rather than be self-sufficient and grow your own crops, plant your own trees to harvest lumber and mine your own ore to make steel.

Nor is the shift back to hunting/gathering even possible at this point. The population of the planet is such that we would consume all animal and plant matter within months, if it were not replenished in highly structured ways on farms.
Mass hysteria and violence can afflict larger communities as well.

This was published seven years ago. Its arguments are very sketchy - as if settling nurture versus nature for humans were not social science, as opposed to science.

If identical twins are raised in a wealthy household versus a poor household, how can one determine traits coming from inheritance versus environment? This analysis does not really answer it.

The data of identical twins separated at birth is very light, as one can imagine. A look at the data of the major studies shows there really is not a lot of data - twins are separated at the age of 9 or so, or sometimes are separated at birth and then reunited.

Many of these twin studies are funded by the strange but well-funded Pioneer Fund. You can check out what they were up to in the 1930s if you're interested.
I think the coolest TLDs are .edu, .org, .gov, and .com, in that order, because that’s ordered by likelihood the content (not design) will be good, knowing nothing else about the website.
To be fair in the case of airplane wifi this is compounded by the exorbitant pricing.

If you pay a premium price you expect premium service.

There's no competition for airplane wifi though, you either use it or you don't. It's not like you choose between two different vendors... So they're competing against no wifi at all which allows for pretty mediocre and unreliable service as that's "better than nothing".

These free ML models exist in a slightly different world.

epistemic goods (e.g. truth, knowledge, understanding, etc.)

Individuals who possess this virtue know when, and how, to deliberate autonomously, and they do so motivated by a love of the truth and appropriate care for epistemic goods.

autonomous deliberation can also be motivated by an unhealthy suspicion of other people, an overestimation of one's own intellectual abilities, a need to prove someone else wrong, and so forth.
I was an AI skeptic for a long time, but I've slowly started to come around on the use of tools such as ChatGPT. I don't think they'll replace programmers, since in the end someone still has to make the judgement about integrating the output in a project in a coherent and useful way, and this takes just as much mental effort and training as writing the code in the first place.

Currently I'm playing around with ChatGPT and soon other tools in a collaborative and generative fashion, where I give ideas and prompts and get multiple choices. In the end I still have to make the choice (and if necessary adapt it to my needs).
Price gouging is a civil offence in quite a few jurisdictions. But this isn't price gouging under those definitions. Those laws concern necessities in times of disaster. Which a domain cash grab is not.
It annoys the hell out of me that in the current economy it seems that loyalty gets punished. New customers often get the best deals and get fleeced once the promo runs out. New employees get hired at higher salaries than people who have been with the company for years. I think in the long run this is really corrosive for society.
I don't know it has become out of fashion these days but as an Internet veteran-ish (started Internet journey late in the 90s), I believe one should get a .com domain. This is especially true when you are going to run a business and grow it.

Get a .com domain, preferably no-hyphen, and no_underscore.

If you have something like mydomainis.cool, then try to get mydomainiscool.com too. You can redirect mydomainiscool.com to mydomainis.cool.

It was inevitable to delay the rollout, the adoption of Manifest V3 is way too low among the most popular extensions. Take a look at the various featured categories on the Chrome Web Store, only a small fraction of featured extensions have migrated to Manifest V3. In 3 weeks all of them would have had to be removed from those promotion pages and the Chrome Web Store would have been in ruins.

The deprecation timeline is too aggressive considering that Manifest V3 is still missing important features, so many developers have decided to brace for impact, even if it meant losing the Featured badge for their extensions in January 2023.
All human traits? How about the trait of being an only child?
My first attempt with SD2 was my favorite prompt in SD1 - 'nebulaic sky above a golden sea, 4k desktop wallpaper'. SD1 routinely made the nebula golden instead of the sea, but what the heck, still makes for a great Zoom background. But SD2 just gave me a golden nebula. No sea. I tried everything I could think of to vary the prompt, and nothing would produce an image with the sea in it.

Then I ran a sanity check, and asked it 'Sea'. I got some interesting abstract patterns, a comic strip about an airplane, and a bird that looked rather diseased. No seas. Maybe one of the abstract patterns kind of looked like the sea does in anime?. Just to double-sanity-check that prompts don't need to be more refined than that, I searched 'forest' and got some lovely photorealistic pine trees in the mist.

SD2 literally doesn't know what the sea is. I just checked and SD2.1 gives you more sea-ish abstract art than SD2.0 did, but still no dice. 'photorealistic sea' gives me two motorcycles and an elephant.

edit: Seems v2.1 understands 'ocean' some of the time (not all!). v2.0 did not understand either one.
I think it will be the opposite. We will need literacy more than ever because the key to dialog with ChatGPT (LLMs) is knowing how to prompt. Teachers have a great opportunity. Be creative.
Indeed. It's also quite a bit easier, faster, and cheaper to make INSANELY better quality images than it was in 1992 when Myst was being developed.

The software and hardware differences between 1992 and today are immense.

What hasn't changed though is the artist. Robyn Miller and Chuck Carter squeezed every ounce out of what was available to them.

This guy could do the same with Stable Diffusion, but will take work it doesn't seem like he wants to do. He wants Stable Diffusion to be his perfect human-quality artist, and it isn't that.

I am curious, how much does a sturdy stand cost for a solar panel set? Are there significant cost savings on the support structure? EDIT : Ok, its 20% of total cost. Significant.

Also, being completely flat, dont they lose avg. units generated per day? I though placing them at a N-S inclination helps with capturing more energy.
One can argue scalpers expecting 3000 for a domain means the domain is premium-enough to be worth that renewal.
Also, the mandated delays in USA for TV and radio to allow censoring (and thereby reduce the risk that Something Untoward is enacted on a live broadcast) . IIRC, radio has a 10 second delay, while TV has a 30 second delay. This allowed a Lt. Col. I knew to hear the conclusion of any play before the television image was even close to definitive. Even with "pure broadcast" TV and radio (no digitising, no cable, no satellite…). Processing delays, such as for DVR or streaming, only add to the overall delay.
I really like my .net names, but since the recent drama... I think I just hate dns in general.
This is a really good idea. Never thought of it via the cost high now so think well before buying angle. I own more 100+ domains and every year, I had to let go because they no longer sound cool.

I didn't realize registrars let you buy for 10 years. The best I have seen are discounted pricing for 2-years.
In the absence of a consciousness creating the story, it’s just monkeys banging out Shakespeare on a typewriter. In truth, I found these rather banal.
We should not tolerate this rampant monopoly based rent seeking.

Even if there is an argument to be made about supply and demand on names... at least it should be easier to agree that private entities shouldn't be allowed to profit from it; distinct from charging a reasonable service fee.
I really prefer working with functional transformations over containers (including iterators).
I hate the practice, it’s scummy behaviour.

One of my domains got hit by it and now I can’t even move it because it’s market as premium.

> surprisingly many people will not make any adjustments at all when you say "Please, if you speak more slowly I can understand"

I've seen this too, so many times. If I'm speaking to someone who has trouble with English, I can automatically speak slower, enunciate better, and use simpler words and shorter sentences. But some people cannot adapt the way they speak. I don't think it's because they are unaccommodating or impatient. For some puzzling reason, they just can't speaker slower and simpler. Ironically they might instead speak a bit faster as you observed, or louder.

That is awesome. Although I'm surprised you can just pickup a new client, bang out a new feature, and finalize everything in 10hrs. Seems like there would be a lot of overhead getting started and whiping your hands of it.

I actually thought the first version in the blog post was pretty good. It looked like a floating dock to me (that goes up and down with the water level) rather than one secured by pilings.
I think we are talking about the same things. I'm claiming the design being discussed doesn't have the effect you believe it does, with the growth of contentious threads being evidence to the contrary.
I remember my desired domain being premium at launch. What happened might’ve been the premium list was expanded, but it’s bad to apply that list change to renewals that previously weren’t considered premium.
and .net
according to tld-list you can renew .dev domains on porkbun for $10.87.
As an early fan of Google's Cloud Build service I was overly enthusiastic when I discovered `cloud.build` was available and quickly set about registering it.

After a few years of paying the £500+ annual renewal due to its Premium domain status, my enthusiasm has waned somewhat...

I've been using pip-compile from https://github.com/jazzband/pip-tools for this use case; a standard project Makefile defines "make update" which pip-compiles the current requirements, and "make install" installs the frozen requirements list.

This way I can install the same bill of materials every time

That's a different approach, called agrivoltaics.

3 meter high frames with the panels on top, wide row spacing (about 10x), and crops in the ground. Minimal harvest yield loss (sometimes even improvement, as the shading reduces stress on the plants), and selling power from the same land. It could be marketed as "zero land needed" PV power.

With Erthos's on-ground panels, a robot with fat soft tires rolls over the panels. No walking needed.
From the poor search results angle - reemphasize backlinks.

From the underlying tech - they already have lambda and meena which are better.

Google's bigger problem is Apple and walled gardens (reddit, tiktok, etc) in general.
For those who do not remember, Google did an auction for .dev domains when it was first released in 2019. I think it was something like that every week the price was halved until it reached the $12/year.

I bought a .dev domain from Google, when the auction was at $200/year. Every renewal period has been $100/year. If there is a way to decrease it to $12/year, that would be great.

EDIT: Looking at other comments on this thread, looks like that Google is dynamically price adjusting renewal costs? I am sad that yet another pillar of the original free internet seems to be falling even further pray to capitalism.
It's a shame Vinay disappeared from this thread.
I would rather pay a once off high price to acquire a domain than randomly have a domain I have owned for some time get marked as premium and now the price is high every year and I can’t move it around anymore either.
I don't know what made you think that I am defending any overlord. Anything which bothers anyone, should be questioned, be it at any level.

Its my understanding, that any registrar & registry does this, it is quite prevalent, my own one domain fell through this. In this case Google is both registry & registrar. Some others, like Donut, & many other registries also do it all the time. Google, or any registry for that matter, is not gonna care if somebody like me don't renew it (although as a principal I prefer to vote with wallet & have opinion that if regular domain gets classified as premium, one shouldn't renew & let registry try to see if they can get $$$ for it, barring any big business).

Like many others, my digital life is also tangled with google ecoverse, and I am too lazy to even want it to be de-googled, although Google has hurt me quite a few times (first when they shut down the Reader), so, no I am not defending anybody. My understanding is, domains are on rent, nobody can own domain forever, at expiry owners (registry and or registrar) can price it what they want, and I try to register my important domains as far as possible.

> Wage labor isn't a natural baseline, though. It's an arbitrary system that benefits certain people at the expense of others, and is just as natural as feudalism, monarchism, etc.

Labor having value is in fact wholly arbitrary, which is why its value fluctuates depending on various market conditions. Fundamentally, it depends on people valuing living, which is why what I'm saying is not unnatural.

"Wage labor" is just "labor."

> If you want to make an argument from history and nature, you can't ignore that early human societies didn't have wage labor, nor were there asset owning classes that didn't work and depended on the labor of others.

Asset owning people do work, though. This notion falls apart under minute scrutiny. There's of course people that inherit wealth that only ever exchange it for consumption of goods or services, but those people are still inheriting labor from people that chose to give them it.
False. The broadcast waveform remains analogue. The receiving electronics (not the antenna) need to be DTV-capable to correctly interpret digital content of the received waveform.
This is v6; nobody counts individual IPs, because the answer is always "enough".

If they lie on a flat, impact absorbing material (i.e. sand), then hail would do less damage than for standing panels. One could walk on them. If, as you propose, put flat rigid cement below, I'd thing you could drive on them.
A parenthetical comment: I've always liked the imagery a "crash" course gives me:

Either its the course of treatment you get after a crash

Or it's the course of actions which is going to lead to a crash.
Yeah, I would pay to reduce the number of clicks. Already using voice to text and a fancy professional mic.
I got bitten by this also. I registered a .dev domain thinking the ~$200 price tag was one-time only during the initial bidding phase when the registrar was opening. However it turns out that is a yearly renewal. I think it's a bit scumbag but I also like the domain so I guess they are just charging what people can afford.
> The first coast-to-coast telephone call was made August 17, 1951, using the Long Lines — sometimes known as the “Skyway” or “Telephone Skyway” — network.

It's odd to think about how a long-distance phone call was limited before then. We take it now for granted that this is possible, even cell coverage works well in most rural areas in the US now.

This game is as old as domains, or at least I knew it since 2005s.

.sbs registry has done it with my domain in 2021.

.xyz has done it another one of my domain few years ago.

None of my regular old tld domains, and cctld domains experienced it.

What happens with the prompt "nebulaic sky above a golden ocean, 4k desktop wallpaper'"?
SD works best when you combine it with a paint program.

for example, I generated superman but part of his cape was missing. I brought the image into GIMP and manually painted his cape on (sloppy, with pure red, no attempt at making it nice).

Then I ran the image through "img2img" and the cape looked perfect.
maybe most images are labelled "ocean"?
