This is apples and oranges. SD et al are defended on the grounds of being transformative use (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformative_use): they do not distribute (ie copy) the original training images, and they are not a derivative work due to transformativeness, so the license of the original images is completely irrelevant. (Details like 'signatures' are also irrelevant: if I write a style parody of William Shakespeare and add a '--Willy Shakespeare' at the end to round it off, have I revealed that I have secretly copied his work? Of course not. It's just plausible that there would be a name there, so I came up with a name.)

The criticism here is that distributing (copying) the original image violates the non-commercial clause of the original images because someone, somewhere, might somehow have made money in some way because the dataset exists; but as they somewhat lamely acknowledge later, what counts as 'commercial' has never been clearly defined, and it probably can't be defined (because for most people 'commercial' seems to be defined by 'ewww'), and this is why CC-NC licenses are heavily discouraged by WMF and other FLOSS groups and weren't part of FLOSS from the beginning even though Stallman was in large part attacking commercial exploitation.

I think they were referring to how the article seemed to be one-sided. It didn't mention any of the controversy around their activities, like the article link [0] provided by the (currently) top rated comment in this discussion, which talked about how poorly trained these security people are, how they have broken the law, beat up and shot people, how the local prosecutors are not happy with some of this stuff, etc.

It would have been a more fair article if they mentioned this other stuff, but they didn't, it only painted these private security people in the best light possible. Call that a lie of omission. Some people feel this is manipulative.

Thanks for sharing the tip!

It was hard for me to weigh the pros and cons based on the article. Some questions that you might want to answer in the blog post to make it more useful:

- Will it make my computer noticeably faster? Or just the Windows startup? Or reduce the memory consumption? Or just simplify the UI? ("bloat" is not well defined)
- How much disk space can I expect to get back?
- How do I know if it will remove something that I find useful?
- If I run the command, how can I revert it later? How can I install a package back?
Maybe? There are apparently ~430 active reactors worldwide today but the number has been practically constant since the 90s. https://www.statista.com/statistics/263945/number-of-nuclear...

Likely more to do with the massive expense of building them than any movement though.

Same, I was really hopeful that Rust was going to fill the void of a modern systems language (been following it since around 0.6), but judging by the direction it's been headed the since 1.0, state of libs and the ecosystem, and the general community sentiment, I've kinda lost hope at this point. To quote Carbon's readme, "barriers range from changes in the idiomatic design of software" (emphasis mine).

What took the cake for me though, was a post a couple weeks ago where people were griping about Go's error handling (if err != nil) when Rust is, at best, no better than Go (e.g if you want to add any context to your error), or just objectively worse off (? operator moves all your error handling logic to a separate, completely different part of your code base).
worked at two big tech companies. there is perverse incentive to grow your organization. gets you to director or VP. if you engineer it goes to your promotion packet to get you promoted.

pattern i saw is teams do not build customer feature but work on “efficiency” or “cost saving” project. Ok, so you build something that other teams should use because it will save them time. Sounds very good on paper.

so you do these things to entrench your team DEEP into the tech stack. now people depend on you you use it as reason to get even more head count. ok now the engineers got their promotion but they struggle to support these teams when things not working. So they leave. they got promo, why stay?

managers now use all this ammo to ask for even more hc. it is self serving cycle. Now..development harder. harder to push new features. new people from college come. first they have imposter syndrome and think this is all great and they just not smart to get it. within few year they get it..see processes and tools are idiotic. they learn to play the same game. circle of life continue
Saying that people pushing for police reform results in withdrawing police protection appears to be an unexamined logical jump in your reasoning. That's only the case because the police often choose to withhold police protection in response to police reform.

I'd say it's impossible to do this in any ethical way without perfect knowledge of the future. When it comes to solving this as a civil issue, this is not at all what we do. We look at the future potential value of that individual persons life and then ask a jury to decide the award.

You've only described racial diversity. What about diversity of lived experience? Diversity of thought? Diversity of religion? Where do these rank against race?

Every time I see someone reassuring themselves in this way I fret even harder about what is soon to come.

Let me ask you: If you had to teach someone who didn't know how to do what you do, would you be able to do so with language and visual demonstrations? Partializing the ultimate output with various steps that have varied contexts and phases of state is absolutely not outside the reach of machine learning.

Better and more appropriate to think in terms of what it doesn't do yet. And bear in mind that its time as mere assistant is determined in part by how well it is taught. If I was a PE fund steering manager I would be acquiring every design firm with good data practices. Places like GetDevDone [formerly psd2html][0] and Design Pickle[1] would be good acquisition targets from the top of my head. Adobe has a huge advantage here with Figma.

It's only a matter of time before the tooling to partialize and perfect every aspect of information work is cheaply in the hands of people who used to outsource with humans.

How do you measure “quality”, though? To my ear there’s a ton of great new music being made today, rivaling music from basically any point in recording history.

As for whether it will stand the test of time, well, only time can tell that. But most people are forever stuck waiting for more music that sounds like it did when they were in high school and college, which is a mindset destined for disappointment.

Importing (in the geographical sense) the data would still be infringing, you've just scraped it in a convoluted way -- legal systems in my limited experience take account of such things.
You're correct. For example, if you're in someone else kitchen, trying to eat a meal and you didn't ask the house owner where the forks at so you go searching by yourself:

UX would be "what drawer will the utensils be within the kitchen? Usually close to the microwave/stove/fridge."

UI would be "Does this drawer need handles or can you open it from the bottom?"
Why is this happening? In the USA, folks with no insurance go to the ER because they're obliged to treat everyone whereas an "urgent care" can claim you issue isn't life threatening. (Then someone down on their luck can get ill and die from lack of antibiotic or a small wound infection.)

Does something similar happen in England, or are they just extremely short staffed?

I agree. 1) because the company took outside money does not decrease your skin in the game (if substantially all of your net worth was in the company before a funding round, and it was all primary capital raised, then you’re still “all in”). 2) when people are over invested exposed, their risk tolerance typically goes down not up (even if the payoffs have high expected returns)
This explicitly implies that population growth is desired. However, our total resources are limited, and at some point growing population is unsustainable.

It can be argued that some countries are already at this point. Ie they have stagnant population numbers because they are already over-populated, and there is economic pressure to reduce population growth.

It's not as easy as that.

Pictures are clearly personally identifiable data, so storing them violates the GDPR if you don't have permission to do so.

Some "data analysis company" got fined a hefty sum for doing so with EU citizens.

I forgot the name, but they were recently in the news for helping Ukraine identify Russian soldiers by picture.

Of course they were also aggregating other data including names, so just pictures might be a more complicated case, but as a company with EU exposure I wouldn't do it. It's pretty clearly against the law.

I'm inclined to agree, but can you please clarify "a lot less than one billion"?
Right, but the point is that you can't actually write the equivalent of that function in Haskell. You'd have to write something like this:

defaultMap :: Map k v
defaultMap = ...

f :: TVar (Map k v) -> IO (Map k v)
f = \case
Nothing -> newTVarIO Map.empty
Just m -> pure defaultMap

which would make it hard to be unaware of the possibility that the dictionary you get each time you pass `Nothing` would be the same one. And then the type signature returns an IO action, so you would know that "anything could happen here", whereas there's no such indication in python.

Conversely, if you had your `f` function in Haskell has a type like `Maybe (Map k v) -> Map k v` then you know that it can't possibly be creating a mutable map and inserting it in the process somewhere without your knowledge. (Modulo `unsafePerformIO` and other evils like that).
> The police, along with bank employees, generally aren't great at simultaneously entertaining multiple possibilities.

Are you basing this on something other then assumptions?

If you go to the police and say you are a victim of fraud they will help, how it happened is secondary.

Why so little faith in authorities?

> You have blown up this thread asserting the complete equivalence of two things

What I did say is police should help you if you are a victim, how it happened is secondary. That is on top of saying checks are a lot more insecure and its a lot more difficult if not impossible to fall victim with alternatives.

> stop trying to gaslight those of us who can not

You can enjoy the alternatives, just search for them. (one of the banks I'm using is revolut which is in the usa too and easy to set up on your phone...)

As for gaslighting... That's just incredulity towards dismissiveness... If it seems like bad faith, it's not, surprised it would be interpreted as such so I'll stop.
