nvfruc is extremely limited in its capability, basically small motion interpolation between two frames within a very short interval. FILM (and other deep learning based interpolation methods) is capable of interpolating two frames with large motion differences at a significantly larger computational cost. I don't understand why you're trying to imply nvfruc could be better at both cost and quality? Even Nvidia won't make such bold claims.

> A house is only an investment if you can sell it and still have somewhere to live.

Only assuming they can’t downsize or move.

I know plenty of people that bought in a flash suburb, or a family sized home then kids have left home, so they sell up and go cheaper while retaining a lot of equity from the property valuation growth.

Also when people don’t need to work (usually retirement), it is very common for people to leave expensive urban areas and move to cheaper and nicer digs in semi-rural areas. This works especially well if you move countries or return to your birth country.

You are also ignoring the worse situation where a married couple divorce and now need two homes: halving total equity is financially difficult for most people (especially in later decades which leaves little time to catch up again).

Being on HN, I think it's fair(er?) to assume that the GP was aware that "language" can mean a standard of expression and communication that is not a spoken human language (maybe a programming language?), but also that it's fair(er?) to assume that they meant "spoken human language" too.

I'd be more interested in the source for their claim, than being pedantic about them missing "spoken" in where they clearly meant that.
I believe that this day and age we can get one connector that cover 80% of use cases. How I'd do it is have 1 4 pin barrel connector like the kind found on head phones, I'd have 1 pin be ground, another be data, another be 3.3v, and another be either 12 or 24 volts. The 3.3v would cover lower power devices, 24v would cover higher power devices like stepper motors or servos.

Technology marches on. Basically cheap powerful microcontrollers can act as a modem and do more complicated error correction, modulation, etc. I think you'd only get something like ~400 bytes per second, but that should be plenty for most hardware peripherals. You're not going to be doing hard real-time industrial control using this kind of system, but if you want to poll the air temperature, humidity, light level, and actuate a servo, once per second, you should be able to. For more complicated setups, like those where you pull a lot of amps or require hard real-time control, you may need to do things the old fashioned but you'll still be able to take advantage of other kitbash components. But it's about the abstraction, like if you need a precise motor controller (high amps, high speed sensing of current and rotation) you probably need something custom. Still, hopefully you can export a kitbash interface and all you need is a side-channel for the power.

The cost is a $0.40 microcontroller on every device, which doubles the cost of many simple components, and it's not something I see being used in "properly designed" consumer products, but I think it would be entirely doable for the hobbyist/prototyping market. Imagine a bunch of physical hardware knobs, sliders, and buttons, and you can just wire them together to make your user interface.
You're overselling this a bit. TSA Precheck is $78 for 5 years. If you are able to afford to travel by air and do so more than a few times a decade, it isn't that cost prohibitive.
I'm hopeful some nonprofit Signal/wikipedia-esque alternatives spring up to eventually replace the likes of Twitter, Facebook, etc. The incentives are just too messed up in the ad-driven model.

European copyright laws have often been much stricter than in the US, in part because publishers have long been very close to the state (in countries like France and Germanu for example). If anything, Europe has been the bad influence historically, and has pionniered copyright treaties as the sibling comment mentions. It's crazy what some Europeans can blame the US for though.

With the Perl DBI interface, you had to set some magic item on the statement or database handle--LongReadLen, maybe--in order to get all of a LONG or LOB. But you could get the whole thing. I mention Perl here, because I used it to copy articles from the Oracle back end of a ColdFusion website to the front end of something built on PHP plus MySql. And before I could even test this, I had to get the data into a different Oracle database, using the standard exp/imp.

I don't doubt what you say, but I do wonder about the experts you encountered.

I guess the Android SDKs are "open", but if you want to do anything lower-level, or be able to upgrade the Android version later (at least for more than just a few years), you need it to be a lot more open than pretty much all Android tablets.

I think the sibling's suggestion of a Raspberry Pi with touchscreen is much better from that perspective, but then you're on your own for building a polished "product" around it, which is unfortunately more involved than just 3D-printing a case for it.

“dealing with merge conflicts are a breeze” is an understatement.

VSCode’s UI does not even remotely approach how good IntelliJ’s is. I’m not aware of any UI that does merge conflicts as well as IntelliJ currently.

That’s also how I manage my weight. After a while you don’t necessarily need to count everything, you get pretty good at just estimating. I know if I have some drinks, I tend to go over budget and I compensate by trying to have a subsequent day under budget, or do some more exercise.

I like it because I don’t feel deprived. If I want something, I just fit it into the calorie budget. You pretty quickly learn that potato chips, soda, beer, and candy consume budget quickly and don’t fill you.
> The law firm was notified ahead of time, twice.

How is that relevant? A stupid and harmful policy is stupid and harmful, regardless of who was notified and how. If I send an email to Google to notify my displeasure, it is not reasonable to expect all Google employees to be aware of it and avoid my business.

Despite the fact that personally punishing individual employees for a beef your holding company has with some of their colleagues is stupid. There is no other way of putting it.

> Lawyers expect others to abide by such notifications, do they not?

There is so much wrong here. Lawyers are not omniscient. They also expect companies to abide by their own terms of use, and routinely ignore unfounded or groundless “notifications”.

> Bringing up companies the size of cities compared to that is completely ridiculous and irrelevant.

So, where’s the limit? What company size makes this reasonable?

> And companies like Meta, Google, Apple, etc. will absolutely enact draconian policies when IP and other litigations are going on.

So, it is draconian after all. Show an example of individuals being booted off Google’s or Apple’s platforms only because of their employer.

But then, none of the points you’ve made are, either.
> The point was to promote the creation of new creative works.

What are you referring to exactly, US copyright law or earlier laws from other countries? US Copyright law from the beginning (1790) was written in part to preserve the economic property rights of authors and publishers. Part of the point always has been protection of profit. [1] [2]. Initially it only applied to books, not to art. You can’t really separate the granting of a limited-time monopoly over a work from the promotion of new creative works, they go hand in hand, to say economic protection was never the point is not accurate.

‘In 1783 several authors' petitions persuaded the Continental Congress "that nothing is more properly a man's own than the fruit of his study, and that the protection and security of literary property would greatly tend to encourage genius and to promote useful discoveries."’ [2]

The earlier British Statue of Anne says similarly:
“Whereas Printers, Booksellers, and other Persons, have of late frequently taken the Liberty of Printing, Reprinting, and Publishing, or causing to be Printed, Reprinted, and Published Books, and other Writings, without the Consent of the Authors or Proprietors of such Books and Writings, to their very great Detriment, and too often to the Ruin of them and their Families: For Preventing therefore such Practices for the future, and for the Encouragement of Learned Men to Compose and Write useful Books; May it please Your Majesty, that it may be Enacted” [3]

Note that both quotes reference economic protection as the first reason, and promotion of creativity second.

No, they were already getting sued. They decided for apparently purely emotional reasons to punish not just the plaintiffs, not just their lawyers, but also every other lawyer at the same firm.

> does and should limit the autonomy of individuals for the greater good

No, it's to prevent the person from doing harm to others, not "for the greater good" or else you've entered into fascist territory. It has nothing to do with competence either but harm reduction. That's why someone can't drive without a license because they would be at a high risk of hurting others (you can drive on your own property.) It's self-defense.

> Also, you've used the word violence here

I used the word violence because it's literally violence. It has nothing to do with connotation, the definition of a state is the monopoly on violence over a particular territory; so wielding the state to force people to do things is nothing less than using violence or the threat of violence. This isn't remotely controversial.
That's pretty much the conclusion the video makes. The context here is playing scores with VST instruments, which use MIDI as an interface. The solution they found was to implement a new interface suitable to their needs and an orchestral plugin compatible with that interface.
Tbh, I'm not really sure what you mean. The Firefox browser seems really solid. It passes most all benchmarks on WPT. It's also very focused on compatibility which chrome and safari often have problems with. There's plenty of stuff (e.g. grid) that they've been ahead of the curve on. As a developer I can also say that the FF devtools are by far my favorite to use

What exactly is the issue with FF? I think their loss of market share has a lot more to do with exactly the stuff you're telling them not to focus on. The competitors have OSes (e.g. macOS, Android, Windows, ChromeOS) that heavily push defaults or sometimes even force it (e.g. iOS).

For browsers like FF, Opera, or Brave, there's already a bar of people having to go out of their way to download them. They have a "third party" feel to them
> The point was to promote the creation of new creative works

for profit, profit of money and profit of learning. The first copyright law in the world, the Statute of Anne[1] specifically mentions money in the preamble:

> Whereas Printers, Booksellers, and other Persons, have of late frequently taken the Liberty of Printing, Reprinting, and Publishing, or causing to be Printed, Reprinted, and Published Books, and other Writings, without the Consent of the Authors or Proprietors of such Books and Writings, to their very great Detriment, and too often to the Ruin of them and their Families: For Preventing therefore such Practices for the future, and for the Encouragement of Learned Men to Compose and Write useful Books;

(As an aside, I'm so glad English moved away from German or we'd still be using capital letters everywhere!)

Authors of the time were arguing against censorship, monopolies formed by powerful printers, and to make money they felt they were owed. As Daniel Defoe, author of Robinson Crusoe, is quoted as saying in that article:

> One Man Studies Seven Year, to bring a finish'd Peice into the World, and a Pyrate Printer, Reprints his Copy immediately, and Sells it for a quarter of the Price ... these things call for an Act of Parliament
