I never comment for the karma, nor do I really look at the karma. You can look at my history lol I think it’ll highlight my sentiment about karma.

I’m also not saying this stuff is explicitly bad. I’m simply pointing out I know multiple people with this issue described (hrs and hrs on social media), and provided a path how I’ve seen people successfully overcome it.

Regarding Tiktok, it definitely is interesting in a few ways, but it’s not an overly difficult algorithm. It’s data collection and format. I think it’s mostly the UX/UI focus that makes it different from any of the other apps. Imo it’s less information dense to end users and more addiction focused. My favorite tid-bit is that they know when you’re about to drop off usage so they’ll send you highly ranked content in a notification. Basically, this results in doom scrolling right before sleep.
If you post a song on your website and I listen to it am I violating your copyright?

If my parrot recites your song after hearing my alleged infringement, I record its performance and post it on YouTube is that infringement?

Last one, if I use the song from your website to train an song recognition AI is that infringement?
Could be, but that's my recollection of the situation. I had added -ffloat-store on the Linux side, and I had read somewhere that was being done on the osx side.

Note that this was back in January of 2011, possibly earlier. Back then gcc was still the default compiler on macos, and I think Apple was still 32-bit. (I don't remember when they switched to 64-bit, but I have a 32-bit only game that I bought near the end of that year.)

The situation is quite different these days, I don't think any compiler still uses the old registers by default.
Made me think of this Berlin based artist: https://raubdruckerin.de/

She uses manhole covers to create prints, "Raubdruck" means "pirated edition" but literally it's "stolen print"
That's not true. As an example of a more recent copyright-protected work that Stability AI consistently reproduces fairly faithfully, I invite you to try out the prompt "bloodborne box art".
> Also you're not using the stack to pass parameters to routines here either. You might not even use subroutines.

Well that 128 bytes was in the upper half of page 1 and the 6502's stack was in page 1, but at least one source says that the upper half of page 1 was also mapped to page 0.

I'd guess that at least some programs would push to the stack - if nothing else you could save a byte when storing a byte to memory (PHA vs STA #FF).
I took an apprentice a few years ago. I help him with his stuff and he helps me with my project and learns as he works. It has worked out well for us both. I get an extra pair of hands / motivation and he gets mentorship.

Where are you located? I highly recommend finding someone in your city if possible. Some of the most important lessons my apprentice gained were slow, high bandwidth, in person lessons around problem solving and patience.

Don’t worry about paying back yet. That comes later when you’re successful, you simply pay the debt of mentorship forward.
Youtube is so bad at suggesting videos for me that it mystifies me how people could be addicted to it.

"Oh you watched one video about [x] by creator [y]. Here are 100 more videos by creatory [y]. Here are 100 more videos about [x]"

...uh I watched a recipe for cheesecake. I don't need 100 more cheesecake videos, or even 100 more recipes by that youtuber.

Portable Quantum Computer
See what you can do with up to 8 Qbits!!
Sorry, but it's a weird list.

You either need these tools to make engineers, sales and other people to provide value and generate revenue, or you don't.

> That already represents about 19% of a monthly take home salary for the median developer in Sweden.

Firstly, what's take home salary has anything to do with this? Are Swedish developers paying for these tools out of their pocket? These are business expenses. It's disingenuous to use that number.

Secondly, so what? How much do you think it costs for a pilot to fly a plane? The software they need? The hardware they need? While developer needs a $1,000 MacBook and a few optional double digit monthly expenses to generate insane value.

Again, this list is exactly why I don’t want to sell to developers. Because from business point of view these are such minuscule $20 p/m expenses for the value they provide, especially for one of the most highest paying employees these days. And if you think they don't provide enough value, you just cancel the subscription.

It's the cost of making business. And compared to other industries, we in tech are spoiled and we have it very easy.
I quit YouTube around a month ago because it tried to shape my political views.
Completely agree.

Also we who were called "anti-vax", were not actually anti vaccine. We were just skeptical that these vaccines were all they were cracked up to be, and wanted choice an freedom to make our own decisions without coercion.

To call us anti-vax was a deliberate smear and a straw-man, of our (now vindicated) concerns.
IKEA sells a wide variety of cutlery. Some of them are flimsy, some are extremely good for the price. But overall, I’m with OP on this one: you can indeed find good looking and nice to use cutlery at IKEA for a bargain.

Maybe it's just me but when I see Docker with a project like this I already zone out. This is still just based on cdparanoia/cdrdao [0]. I wish people would just push single portable binaries instead of starting the whole process with Docker (especially when the source code is alreaedy available)

Twitter Offers Free Ads as It Seeks to Woo Brands Back to Its Platform
Been using this software for years, it's excellent. It's really eye opening when you have it turned off as well, like suddenly the filters are lifted and you see what the reality is for most people.

Sadly the cat and mouse game between ad vendors and systems like this is, the DNS sinkholing method is either being circumvented thanks to rapidly changing/randomised hostnames outpacing the adlist authors, or ads are rendered server side.

I've never been able to get it to work as the primary DNS source on the router though, so I always have to configure my devices to statically point to the IP of the pihole, but that's just a minor inconvienience (although annoying when devices like TVs don't allow you to configure DNS, or override it secretly for their own stuff)
From my understanding, while that's is technically true, given a consistent axiomatic system (like ZFC[1], the foundation of mathematics we use) there exists a diophantine equation that can't be proven to have no solutions in that system (even though it has no solutions). This mathoverflow answer[2] gives the equation and a link to the paper that shows how to calculate the constants (the numbers are huge!).

What that means in practice is that although what you wrote is true, for some diophantine equations we'd have to come up with new axioms to be able to write a proof of the inexistence of its solutions. But then, how can we be sure that the the new axioms are consistent?

[1] I'm assuming ZFC is consistent; if it's not then it can prove anything, including the existence of solutions for any equations at all

Distributing software has zero cost. Apple can bundle services with it (vuln scanning, CI/CD, cloud resources, etc.) but copying data is inherently a free process. You may object to that all you wish, but the entirety of the internet stands as evidence that software distribution is normalized and free.

The problem was never that Apple wanted to offer cloud resources or scan for known exploits. Go wild, Microsoft does that too and it works great for them. People are only mad when Apple conflates completely arbitrary capabilities with their $99 dev service fee. I should not need a recurring subscription to install an App from Github. We're not in 2005 anymore, we're done selling feature phones.

This is a classic example of something that should be fixed point, not floating point. Just represent positions internally as an integer between 0 and some large maximum. You could use the number of screen pixels, or a larger value if you want to allow e.g. precise moves by zooming in.

At risk of sounding like I'm patronizing you, which I'm not, that ship has sailed. If you'd like to view arguments by people with a more balanced view of crypto, there are a ton of threads you can find on the topic with the help of Algolia. Maybe when the HN majority finds a way to interact with us that isn't awful, people like me will be willing to engage in discussion again.
This is a reasonable response, but good faith should go both ways.

Am I operating in good faith if I ask everyone if they are Sunni or Shia for some ulterior motive, assuming they are Muslim? What about astrological signs? I'd argue not, but a similar thing happens when pronoun-talk occurs.

Whether someone finds salience in pronouns' mapping to "gender identity"—insofar as the concept is coherent—is largely a matter of worldview. Many, if not most people, only care about sex. The imposition of worldview here is what motivates the narcissism charge. That and the fact that most TRAs are narcissists, but it could be unrelated.
I looked at this and played with it a little.

One crucial thing I use my pihole for is to forward traffic going to the .lan top level domain to my reverse proxy (traefik), I couldn't figure out how to do this in the pihole UI so I just added a custom config file to /etc/dnsmasq.d which works perfectly.

I'm not sure what adguard uses but would be interested to here if it's possible!

EDIT: just seen it supports DNS rewrites, which seems to do a similar job. Nice! I might give this a shot for a while
Bad dopamine hygene is a serious thing that should get more focus.

But MDMA is seritogenic, not dopaminergic, and bad serotonin hygene is predominantly a too-little problem and not a too-much problem (unless you're using drugs, then you've got to regulate both ways).

Nobody's complaining, so far as I know, that having too many socal connections is degrading their capacity to enjoy a cup of tea in solitude.

So once software is made, delivering it to the customer is just “delivering data”. Do you think that all software should be free and people shouldn’t charge for software?
I actually prefer software engineering to pure coding.

Pure coding honestly is boring after many years. There's a limited amount of times I can write code that listens to some event, manipulates data and passes it eventually to some api.

Doesn't matter if it's augmented reality, databases, cli tools, it's always the same thing.

On the other hand I find much more interesting setting up projects, their DX, their architecture, solving clients/customers problems under limited time and budget constrains.

I think they should. A lot of law is about precedent.

AI-focused companies should get together, form a group, and have real experts giving expert testimony under oath.

I also think that the courts will form expert committees consisting of real experts like Bengio, LeCun, etc.

Any grifters should be avoided, but I am not sure if the judges will understand the difference.

> 8-12x more accurate than anything streamed of Spotify

Maybe in theory. In practice, the difference will be very hard to hear (for most people, in most scenarios). Have you ever done an ABX test to determine whether you would be able to tell the difference between lossless and Spotify's quality?[1]

I did, a while back, and while I was able to tell the difference somewhat reliably for music I knew well (and only for that kind of music), the effort and time I had to spend on finding the minute differences, even with high-end equipment, convinced me that for everyday listening, Spotify was completely fine for me.

We implemented a web extension specifically to allow this. It basically worked by giving the user a warning that they would be tracked if they proceeded, then gave them a button to proceed anyway. This was a top feature request for our first year of business, driven mostly by our users' wives.

It was actually a pretty tricky bit of technology to build, as it had to work not only for the original link, but all of the associated trackers which were triggered by the event (otherwise the ad might not load).
I feel like broad economic downturns (2008) cause a shift in user-generated content platforms that are generally for the worse. The added need to monetize content can push development in an unhealthy direction.
Was it a subscription service, though? That doesn't seem like a terrible deal if you get a perpetual license - meanwhile forking over $99/year for some basic functionality wrapped in Service Credit seems like a racket to me.
Possibly, but you may be underestimating the degree to which the App Store hampers the average user from getting the applications they need. Users think it's easy to use, yes, but they don't know enough to know better.

Homebrew's search is better, and there are more applications available. Many applications aren't on the App Store at all, so one needs to Google and download possibly unnotarized .dmg archives. Surely this is no easier than Homebrew.
Hi everyone, for the past year I've been building an online RSS feed reader which I use on a daily basis for my personal interests, but have decided to make it more public and share it with similar minded people who also appreciate RSS feeds. Some notes. Feeds refresh about every 5 minutes, so if a news was added on a website you should see it no later then 5 minutes after it's published. At the moment there are no hard limits on how many groups and feeds you can add. As a safety mechanism there is traffic throttling in place, but if you use the system sensibly you shouldn't reach the limit. Apart from your email and IP address no other personal data is collected at the moment. Passwords are stored encrypted using a combination of the bcrypt algorithm and PBKDF2. Have fun :)
I'm guessing something to do with weight/volume.

When tokens were used, every subway fare resulted in a piece of metal that had to be picked up. At 4.7 g each and about 4 million rides a day, that's nearly 19 metric tons of metal daily for processing, which takes up a lot of space as well.

After tokens were phased out in 2003, then by 2006 you're only dealing with paper cash and coins in MetroCard and booths, mostly just picking up paper bills and spitting out coin change for larger transactions, from the small minority of people paying in cash instead of a credit card. So I'd expect the volume to have become comparatively tiny, and much less frequent than daily.

(Plus since you're dealing with standardized cash rather than bespoke tokens, it might use local banks distributed across the city, rather than a centralized hub.)

Where's the pragmatism?

I personally don't open GB size files (that's not true, I sometimes do but it depends on the format and I tend to use vim (which is a very minimal configuration on my system these days, since I've moved to Emacs) for them because I'm typically already in a terminal munging the thing anyway).

I prefer to use the terminal to deal with these things because those tools can help me decompose the problem to a more reasonable space. That seems like a more useful way to spend my time than complaining that a massive file of text won't open on my editor for $REASONS, when it's, IMO, most likely that I wouldn't be able to make sense of the damned thing if I had it all opened in front of me anyway.
No, this is definitely wrong. You're comparing an apple (average returns by investors) against an orange (average annual index returns).

50% of of returns, over all investors, beats the median (not average) returns over all investors, by definition, but the annual median returns over all investors is much smaller than the average annual index return. A very small number of people/investors (1) have beaten the average annual S&P returns over the long term.

My understanding is whipper is more paranoid than abcde. whipper does a couple things to ensure a perfect rip:

* Rips tracks twice and ensures the checksums match (retrying if they do not)

* Compares the track checksums against the AccurateRip database

I think this gives much more confidence that the result is correct. The tags seem a lot more detailed with whipper too.
Single file + CUE sheet solves lead-in thingie problem, by storing both timestamps (time when player should start showing 'Track 2', and time which servers as zero for track-relative timestamps)

Driverless trucking encompasses a large numbers of usage in between full autonomy everywhere and no autonomy at all.

For example, fully autonomous trucks which only work on highway with special equipment on the side could already be worth it. Long haul drivers can’t drive without stopping, can make mistakes and it’s not a very pleasant job. If you could only use a driver for the last few miles, that’s a huge gain.

You are mistaking a failure of your imagination for an absence of possibilities.
1. Don’t know why but when I read the title of the post, I expected the website to tell me how a font would make the average viewer “feel” when they encountered the font in the wild…something like “this font is playful with a hint of seriousness and notes of business casual” or whatever else people look at to decide which font to use on their website.
