This is quite easy to do, but the results can be off in funny ways. For example, try putting this into SD with Euler a sampling and a cfg scale of 10:

"The Night Watch, a painting made by Rembrandt in 1642"

It generates a convincing low-res imitation about half the time, but it also has a tendency to make the triband flag into an American flag, or put an old ship in the background, or replace the dark city arch with a sunset...

If you keep refining the prompt, you can get closer, but at that point you're just describing what the painting should look like, rather than asking the model to recall an original work.
It was published in the public version of 2009 https://github.com/arclanguage/anarki/blob/9f2e1dd53b5b66bb4... Look for "contro-factor" (i.e. controversial-factor).

This is old code, and the mods make tweaks here and there without warning, so the details may have changed. (I'm not sure if gravity changed from 1.8 to 1.6 (???).)

I didn't test it personally, but it feels like HN is using something very similar. And there are a few black box analysis of the sorting of the front page that got similar results. Also, minimaxir is the kind of person that is probably running an script to use the HN API to verify the claims.
Thanks for talking about this.
On iOS I use AdGuard and Hush. These don’t affect ads in apps though.

There might be more involved solutions that work better but I’m not interested in accumulating stuff I have to maintain.
Try downloading and running an unsigned exe using Edge. I'm not a fan of the term "dark pattern" as it gets overused, but the UI design in those flows is pretty much the definition of the term. You can bypass the warnings and run the program but it makes Apple's magic right click look intuitive.
Rather have a big document for a program that doesn't work?

This is amazing! I love to see things like this, because push notifications are always a sticking point on mobile devices that aren't tied to Apple or Google. And this looks like it'll make it easier to get started if you already have an XMPP account.
Fair enforcement of democratically enacted laws isn’t dystopian and it’d save thousands of lives annually, too, so it’s hard to say it wouldn’t have a clear benefit directly linked to the activity.

What would be dystopian would be if that data collection was applied to protected activity or especially to unrelated activities: your attendance at a non-violent protest leading to your student loan rates going up, a religious prosecutor starting to “preemptively” investigate teachers & other government employees who went to a Pride parade, etc.
13 years ago I was so passionate about programing and software engineering. I used to stay in front of screen consucutively for 48 hours.
But, now I realize that it was not for me.
I tried to commit sucide three times. I was not good at soft skills. Though I solved many complex technical problems at work but did not excel in career. Its been 4 months I am jobless and I dont want to code again. I think software engineering and coding is the most painful job on the earth. I prefer death over doing it again. On the other hand I am running out of cash, I have two kids not sure what will happen in next 3 months.

Nice, I've been looking for a way to see what the math symbol coverage is for various fonts. (For writing Agda/Lean code.)

The web page seems to hang a while for some fonts (e.g. JetBrainsMono-Regular), long enough to get a warning from Chrome, but it does work itself out eventually.

It would be nice to have a mouseover or something (even title="...") to give me the name / description of a character that I'm curious about.

(As an aside - does anybody know of a macos input method that will get me something like agda-mode globally?)
It was rather more than 20 years ago that i... heard about this book. I am guessing the Islamic group you mentioned simply redistributed it
All this really helps to highlight why municipalities are really trying to get away from cash for transit, parking, etc. It's not cheap or easy to handle at scale and, at some point, the answer to people who want to keep using cash is a shrug.
Better be safe than sorry.

Plus they also ship devices with Netflix code on them.
That’s probably true. There’s a program down to the county level where law enforcement establishes relationships with places that sell certain materials.

If you show up and buy a big bag of ammonium nitrate or order a few hundred pounds of sugar and aren’t known to the seller, you’ll be looked into or talked to.
Margins in trucking simply can’t accommodate self driving without the costs of shipping having to go way up. The tech is expensive, we’re probably decades away from true self driving with no minder in the truck on open roads, who the hell knows how the regulatory landscape will shake out, this stuff may never work in bad weather conditions (blocking half the country for half the year). And even with self driving, you still have fuel/charging costs, tires, etc. and someone has to load and unload the truck.

The most likely beachhead will be desert lanes in places with low regulations where the middle mile is autonomous but things are handed off to a real driver for getting to the actual warehouse. That’s complicated/limited use cases/more expensive for the same product. Tough sell.

I work directly in heavy duty trucking tech. Our customers are the biggest fleets in the country. All of them are exploring the tech to not fall behind, but behind closed doors every trucking leader will admit we’re nowhere near operationalizing self driving. Not to mention it’s unclear if the biz model for autonomous trucks is to sell the tech (then who is liable when the robot kills someone?) or to sell trucking capacity, the latter squarely making the autonomy companies competitors of trucking carriers vs vendors. It’s messy as hell.

Self driving is the VR of logistics. “We’re a year away” for the next 25 years is where my bets are being placed.
> there are many secure coding techniques that developers should be using, but clearly often don't.

I will bite here. Which ones exactly should be used and are not by common developer?

> know your OWASP top ten if you're writing for the web or mobile.

There is no "my OWASP top ten" and being able to list them helps zero in day to day coding work. The practical knowledge about secure coding does not come from OWASP. It actually typically comes from documentation of frameworks you use, their communication about their libraries and then knowledge about process.

In every test, I copied the app to /Applications before starting it.

For reproducibility, here are the exact steps I took, with .zip[^1] and .dmg[^2] respectively on a test machine:

1. Download the archive from github

2. Extract/mount the archive

3. Drag the app to /Applications

4. Open the app

5. Configure a specific file-path for indexing

And here's the difference I observed:

- Zip: Silent failing, no indexing of files, no exceptions, no errors, "app doesn't work"

- Dmg: Files are indexed as intended, "app works"

Is this what you would have expected as well?

i don't know that dude in particular, but 'backwards middle eastern' sounds a bit racist.

for instance, maybe that person has said something kind of evil, imo -- like maybe that an entire country should be ceded to some other country -- but even then i wouldn't want to overgeneralize -- i def don't like being associated with the most famous/rich americans when i go abroad, or interact online.

but i would agree generally that non-us investors buying up us politicians, pr firms, and tech and media companies is something we/us should be careful about.

Would it make sense to say that the pattern of behaviour (zoning out) is coping rather than addiction, and that addiction is what manifests when we lose control over coping strategies?

They seem like different things to me. Coping strategies are normal and can be healthy. Harmful strategies we depend on without much agency are more so what I’d classify as addiction within this lens.
There's not enough information to be sure, but it sounds kind of like an SQL injection type of issue. Which would be very surprising as that's been known about for many years and all systems should have some kind of input validation setup in place to prevent it. I suppose such any such setup could be overridden by someone with the appropriate level of access however.
Peterson's direct and indirect presence on social media is so varied it must be hard to get rid of him.
I am seriously addicted to the internet in general and while it may not be an addiction in the physical sense, it has caused major issues in my life.

The amount of time I spend on the Internet is insane and no matter how hard I try to will power through it and cut down my usage I always fail. If I ever figure out how to overcome it I'll have to write a book or something, because I've wasted years of my life and missed out on too many oppertunities.

People will call me weak, or pathetic, or say I haven't tried hard enough, but as someone who did use tabacco I have found Internet 'addiction' a much tougher beast to deal with.

It's a curious thought of "could you close a room and point a fan at it and noticeably cool off a room?"

This would be kind of running a mini-split AC to the rooms using water as the refrigerant instead of what hvac normally runs.

It's not a "this is the best choice" or even "this is a better choice than opening the windows" but rather a "if you did this, would it work? kind of?"
Aren't most trucks actually hauling intermodal containers? The panels would have to be on the containers themselves, and then they could not be stacked.
If you're building one of these object storages for yourself (say, using Ceph or OpenStack Swift), a plausible configuration is 12 drives with 8 TB each, or 96 TB per node [1]. Let's round that to 100 TB for simplicity. You obviously want to spread your replicas across multiple datacenters, so let's just say you'll put 10 of these servers (i.e. around half a rack full) each into three different datacenters. That's a very modest deployment in terms of floor space, and yet already has a capacity in the low petabyte range (3 PB raw capacity, 1 PB net capacity).

On the AWS scale, object storage servers will probably be filling entire datacenters (or at least an appreciable portion of each datacenter), so it's very easy to see them being well into the exabyte (= million terabyte) scale, though probably not zettabyte (= billion terabyte) yet.

[1] Source: I help maintain an object storage for a private cloud. Disclaimer: These are not the exact numbers for our nodes, but in the same ballpark.
The small ones I went to interview with, about five of them in total before I decided on my current job never had anything like it. I guess I got spared.

No. Using containers has its place. But would you use containers on hello world?

Likewise, if you've got to use a container for cd ripping tool, you've failed somewhere.

Stable Diffusion is about closed to open.

Copilot is about open to closed.

The Stable Diffusion version of Copilot would be something like

"Give me a cart checkout algorithm in the style of Carmack, secure C style."

And that's fine, if the destination code license were just as open--or even less restricting--than the source codes' license (relicensing rules permitting).

What could be the issue is the generated source becomes even more closed or proprietary, which defeats the original source intent.

Is that right?
Well, you probably like paid time off (as American companies like to call it) and that's a socialist thing. Potentially you might enjoy free healthcare if you could get it - at least you get free policing and defense.

Which country implements pure capitalism? What would that even look like? 0 tax? having to pay private police companies? ....

I'm with you and almost never grant permissions for anything. I even have notification badges turned off for everything they'll let me turn it off for (everything but the Settings app).

Apple's implementation will likely have a toggle in the settings to decide whether or not you can be prompted for this permission. In fact, you can already do this with Firefox (and I assume Chrome).

The people like you and me who don't allow any notifications anyways will likely just turn off the prompt entirely. But for developers, this helps bring the web platform one step closer to equal treatment as native platforms and can dramatically open up the ecosystem Apple currently so tightly controls
You can simply block the ability of websites to even prompt you... That's what I do on Firefox
Absolutely. I have one as well and they're rock solid.
Firstly, there is a little conflation between the Euclidean space and a Euclidean space with a time element going on here. It's not important to your argument but I wanted to call attention to it.

Yes, one way to resolve the paradox is to allow time to be infinitely divisible like (Euclidean) space. Then you can describe where something is at any point in time.

But that discussion is not interesting to me. It is NOT true that "all of our laws of physics assume and describe motion in space build on top of the reals." Both relativity and QM tell us that spacetime is NOT Euclidean.
So you expect that the world the cost of your lifestyle choices at no cost to you?

Why shouldn't you pay for the cost of your choice to live in a rural area?
Cheating is absolutely rampant. My wife witnessed her classmates cheating throughout their coursework (during the early pandemic). One of those people went on to get a coveted spot in the local nursing school and is now a nurse. My wife couldn’t get in, because they use a point system for admissions. The system is rigged to be gamed, and the cheaters are winning the game.
> The hope was to get Congress to investigate the "voting irregularities" found in several key states, such as Georgia.

More accurately, they wanted Congress to give credence to unfounded allegations which had already been investigated and rejected by the actual legal authorities. Georgia’s Republican Secretary of State didn’t sabotage the election against his own party when he rejected false claims, he simply did his job and recognized that the evidence didn’t support those claims, and Congress didn’t have any valid basis for refusing to follow the legal process just because some people wished they hadn’t lost a fair election.
No Mac version yet it looks like.

Remarkably content-free article written by a thrice-rejected newly accepted PhD candidate at Northeastern University. What does this article seek to do? Does it Persuade? About what? Inform? That the author is a 'first-generation Afro-Latinx'? Check. That the bar was the same as every other one of the hundreds of grad schools in the nation, and then it was removed, so she can now proceed to research and the final defense? Check.

It is of course not true in general, but I feel that it is now de rigueur for authors to inject race and hyphenated identities into practically everything they write, sadly reducing them to caricatures. It is difficult to take such writing seriously.

I likely have some degree of YouTube addiction as well. While I hope your tactic is working well for you, I believe this way of thinking can be a deceiving. Almost all the YouTube content I consume is related to science, engineering, math or chess (I’ve watched many of Susskinds’s lectures too). I used to rationalize my excessive use by telling myself that the content I watched was useful. In reality, my time would be FAR better reading a book, doing a project, socializing, doing chores, or really anything other than just being a YouTube zombie.

> when doing paintovers on copyrighted images (VERY common)

What are you talking about? I've been doing drawing and digital painting as a hobby for a long time and tracing is absolutely not "VERY common". I don't know anybody who has ever done this.

> fan art where they paint trademarked characters (also VERY common)

This is true in the sense that many artists do it (besides confusing trademark law and copyright law: the character designs are copyright-protected, trademarks protect brand names and logos). However, it is not fair use (as far as I'm aware at least, I'm not a lawyer). A rightholder can request for fanart to be removed and the artist would have to remove it. Rightsholders almost never do, because fanart doesn't hurt them.

There's also more examples of it reproducing copyright-protected images, I pulled the "bloodborne box art" prompt from this article: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2212.03860.pdf
But I agree with you that reproducing images is very much not the intention of Stable Diffusion, and it's already very rare. The way I see it, the cases of Stable Diffusion reproducing images too closely is just a gotcha for establishing a court case.
It's good general advice, though every tip of course has many counterexamples. I think the reality is startups are hard and also require luck.

Your mistake is classic, you didn't have a product, then released a pile of shit and failed.

Build a solid working product before anything else, and get to at least parity with your 'competition' before releasing, and obviously test it.
If you’ve run an open source project you will get these bug reports. It’s also not obvious if it’s a bug in your code or a dependency many times so you’re going to want to debug it.

As an example alpine has a smaller default stack size. It’s not obvious if that stack overflow is expected or not.
Amusing, but expertise in art doesn’t equate to expertise in detecting AI-generated images. The one with the flowers has most of the flaws we’ve come to expect from 2022-23 AI - superficially similar but it doesn’t have a clear idea of what a flower actually is. Some of the petals are attached randomly, some other structures in the pistils are confused. No doubt that AI will eventually handle these details, but for now there are some tells.

Many credentialed people can barely tell forgeries from authentic works of art so I doubt this sort of inquiry yields anything other than public humiliation of so-called experts. (Aesthetic expertise kinda is, mostly.)

An unofficial list of the most influential science fiction works ever
Well, the question was what will last a lifetime. It's all stainless. If you price Maggard all stainless it looks closer to $70. Solid stainless last way longer than other types, which will eventually break, pit, or strip. You can drop this thing repeatedly from 5 feet and... nothing. A lot of people drop Merkurs in the sink and ruin them.

Beyond that, you're paying some for the name, and some for a guarantee it's manufactured perfectly, so to speak. The price here is closer to $150, I definitely wouldn't pay 400 for it.
What about the existential dread route (sorry!). "If I don't quit this, then I'll never do X.. and my life amounts to nothing". It might be blocking a lot of life goals that will never come to be.
I agree with this for a different reason.

States should mandate that time spent at a job interview must be paid proportional to the average rate of the position you are applying for. This includes take home work!

The reason for this is that if I know you are spending as much as you might spend for an employee on interviewing me, then I know that you are serious about this being a possibility.

This also means you can't send a take home to 1000 candidates, review a few tens of them, and then hire 1. A process I think is rather common at many shops.
It’s not clear how this 200k was spent. In terms of team composition, age of your startup.

So some more context would be nice.

Infinite Array of Anything in Python Using GPT
By OP's standard I'm what you would consider a YouTube addict. I can spend hours just watching it in a single day. And I do this regularly. It doesn't warp my view of the real world, or disconnect me from my work/social circle/ability to keep myself healthy. 90% of what I watch is educational anyways.

What I disagree with overall is that notion that doing something a lot & compulsively is an addiction. If you're doing something that knowingly causes you or other around you harm and then doing it anyways because you can't help yourself, only then is it really an addiction.

I can think of tons of other harmless interests/hobbies that people spend hours of their day on, in lieu of doing other activities, but no one considers those addictions.
The post you're replying to gave several reasons why something like Cosmopolitan Python is not sufficient.

This is nothing like hello world.
Nope.

With respect to NYC I believe you’re mistaken. 97% of NYC water is gravity fed from three reservoirs.

https://www.nyc.gov/html/nycwater/html/drinking/reservoir.sh...

“The NYC Aqueduct is a pressure tunnel (a gravity feed system) with hydraulic head provided by a 300 m difference in elevation between the watershed headlands in upstate New York and the distribution area (NYC). The head is enough to get water under pressure to the sixth floor of most buildings without pumping.”
