You basically described it as if the only business value to be had in software is making a CRUD app. I won't even correct you, I know an overwhelming amount of developers who keep churning out the same CRUD app over and over. With small differences in schema, validation, business rules here and there.

It's a life, I don't judge it.

But it's also shoddy engineering, wasteful, redundant, and eventually this class of applications will disappear, replaced by one of a few winning content management platforms which do CRUD even better than RoR does, and more. RoR's opinionated approach, aside from constraining you so don't make something stupid, it also constrains you INTO doing quite a lot of stupid things.

Everyone has the confidence they're good at their job. But my experience is I've not seen anyone I really respect in this industry, who enjoys RoR's architectural choices.

See, the trouble with being opinionated, is that others also have opinions.
This is a reference to Seinfeld. When Jerry and George pitch their show to NBC, they pitch it is a "show about nothing". Which is almost like an recursion, because the show they pitch in Seinfeld is Seinfeld. So, Seinfeld is a show about nothing.
On the other hand, the existence of a consumer-leaning disputes resolution system, while pretty unfair to merchants in some situations, is probably a big accelerator for e-commerce in general.

I'm much more likely to enter my card number somewhere online knowing that I'll be made whole if something doesn't work out than knowing I'll have to fight for my money back, submit evidence I might not have etc.

Just like with fraud [1], and for similar reasons, the optimal number of successful "false disputes" in a payments and commerce system is probably non-zero: Hopefully, for every dishonest/egregious dispute, merchants see dozens of customers that would otherwise not dare to do business with an unknown/new merchant.

Solopreneur (see my projects here https://ekofi.capital) looking for a good opportunity. Thanks
Propaganda and PR are the same thing. The term "public relations" was invented in the wake of public sentiment turning negative regarding "propaganda" in the wake of the second world war. Prior to that PR was just called propaganda, and did not have a generally negative connotation.
And the top recommendation, Home Assistant, just started their year on working on adding voice support! Oh, the irony.
That makes sense. One has to love all those edge cases, right? I always choose to stick with public health care, even if I am elibible for private insurance for years now. There are reasons for that so, not the least some nasty past medical issues public insurers don't care about but private ones would at least increade premiums over.

The fun thing with private insurance so is that you see the invoices and amounts. Always puzzles me when I see those from my Dad...

Private insurance is great if you get it young enough, and without pre existing stuff, and get good conditions concerning premium increases with age.
Yes, but.

When you're traveling you're usually stimulated much more than when sitting at home in a rut, being slightly depressed and unable to decide what to do next. That's when you start missing [your favorite addictive distraction] and give in to the lure of it.

I can spend three weeks on holiday and not even notice that I spend no time on a screen. I might feel repelled, even. Back home after a few days, not so much.
Just search "Atrioc" in google and read any article. So far, this tech's main use is porn with people who do not want to do porn, who do not post adult content, who did not ever consent to their faces being used for adult content.

The second use of this technology is fraud. Go read the issue and the comments linked in the post.

And you should not even need this much info. The simple fact that they mention "mrdeepfake" as one of the 4 communication groups, the second after their Discord server tells you how much good this tech does to the world.
Depends on the note-taking strategy. From the same paper you cited, section 8.4 Practice testing - Issues for implementation, pages 34-35:

> Another merit of practice testing is that it can be implemented with minimal training. Students can engage in recall-based self-testing in a relatively straightforward fashion. For example, students can self-test via cued recall by creating flashcards (free and low-cost flashcard software is also readily available) or by using the Cornell note-taking system (which involves leaving a blank column when taking notes in class and entering key terms or questions in it shortly after taking notes to use for self-testing when reviewing notes at a later time; for more details, see Pauk & Ross, 2010).

Further explanation: https://lsc.cornell.edu/notes.html#post-1037

The Cornell note-taking system combines moderate and high learning techniques: elaborative interrogation, self-explanation, practice testing, and distributed practice.

If you think about it, creating Anki cards is note-taking in a specific format. Of course you can skip it and use a set prepared by someone else. It would be interesting to test: is creating your own flashcards better for studying than using ready-made ones?
It's not a software problem - it's a hardware problem. A tablet is designed to be a portable, handheld device - I want a wall mounted (or maybe tabletop), permanently powered device. I have no need for a battery.

There does appear to be a few Lenovo tablets which come with a permanent dock - maybe that's the solution?
Me too! I’ve been experimenting with the prompt to try to make it provide better references and questions.

Logged in users can upvote and downvote questions so the next step will be to try to fine tune the model on good questions.
Why voice? It is such a bad interface. I have a Shelly I4 with 4 (physical) buttons that trigger different automations in home assistant on my server, e.g. "Switch off everything" -> HASS -> Connects via Ethernet/Wifi to 6 Shelly Plug S in the room and switches those off. The Shelly Plug S use 0.5 Watt and I have Wifi anyway, so why another device or transmission standard?
The movie "Her"[1] is already here with AI Chatbots. I was recently fooling around with open source 6B parameter AI chatbots. The model is 20GB. That's just for text and that's more text than I could read in my entire life. I could talk to the chatbot for my entire life and never get to the end of it. The amount of raw information that humans can I/O into their brains is very small compared to these chatbots.

I've all but given up on smart home tech. Almost all of them use the old 2.4ghz wifi band which nothing else in my home uses, and for some reason despite being connected to (any) router that supports both they'll fail to communicate with anything on the 5ghz band.

Sure, there are going to be ways around it - but there should need to be. The whole point of this stuff is to make things 'easy', and having to screw around enabling a bunch of legacy settings for brand new hardware isn't 'easy' for the end user.
if someone blame this technology, why not to blame guns, warships, tanks, airplanes, shotguns, machineguns before blaming this technology?

We actually blame them, except for airplanes. Most of these were invented at the times when lives had much less value and are of no use unless some half-minded pig attacks you or tries to undermine your defenses.

I’d like to see how this line of reasoning changes when someone releases a virus for your DNA in your backyard, made with funnyjokes/easy-create-virus-for-a-drone-app.
I suppose it should be a link to some resource about Berkeley Packet Filters (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkeley_Packet_Filter).
If it's +(1 2 3) then the language is no longer homoiconic and you will lose the primary leverage of being a Lisp. The fact that Lisp code consists entirely of Lisp data literals (code as data) is what enables Lisp macros and the superior REPL experience.

They're already using gpt3 afaik
Early C largely inherited the data model and semantics of BCPL, which was built around "machine words" and not byte-addressable memory. The introduction of the C "char" allowed them to take advantage of PDP-11's byte addressability for special occasions, but "int" was still the default choice for storing everything from sizes, to file descriptors, to pointers.

In that sense, it was not exclusively built for a byte-addressable machine with registers of a varying size.
for a definiton of "just memory" that includes the strict aliasing rule. Certainly not a buffer of bytes, what most people would assume when they hear "just memory".
Heaping on the praise, use this tool every day, for years, on every mac I've had. Best 15 quid spent
I'd imagine it's the Berkeley Packet Filter which underpins tcpdump, but he got distracted half way through?

Worst advice. Imagine the risks you are putting yourself into when trusting all these 3rd-party browser extensions https://palant.info/2022/08/10/anatomy-of-a-basic-extension/

It's better to use something like piped that has the following features: https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped#features
damn! that's brutal :p
It sounds familiar right? A foolproof way to monetize hype…
The rest of the episode continues with Kramer getting a wild streaming setup, Elaine setting up Teams for Peterman and George quite quitting by mounting a picture in front of his webcam
On Android at least, HomeAssistant also supports customised quick settings buttons and widgets, for specific scenes/lights/buttons. It's super handy, since you can access quick settings without unlocking your phone, and have widgets on a dedicated page on the home screen.
It is absurd. Get a button instead. Button option:

- press button
Ukraine is a sovereign state and can apply and join whichever club it wants to join. More ex-Soviet states joining NATO was based on political decisions of sovereign states and not "the puppetmaster USA pushing to the east", which is Kreml propaganda.

IIRC in the 90s/00s they were talking about Russia joining NATO, too. After 9/11 Putin offered their well-meant help. NATO and Russia were meeting regularly in the past three decades and guess what, Russia left this meeting. Plus, NATO was always very careful arming NATO states near Russia in order to not provoke them. You cannot put this on NATO's card.

Edit: Even after annexation of Crimea, the EU (esp. Germany) tried to calm down Putin by negotiating a piece treaty between Ukraine and Russia and buying even more (cheap) Russian gas.
Why would I do research on you, write a cover letter, and make a tailored resume when you haven’t even considered interviewing me yet?

There’s no job I’m keen enough on to go through all that trouble.

Also because the few times I did actually write something like that it just disappeared into a black hole.
It's a self-contradictory and bad-faith argument - it doesn't give another person the opportunity to say no, let alone to not do it.
I fully recommend the Aqara Wireless Remote Switch H1 [1]. They are quite cheap, yet feel premium (unlike the IKEA buttons, which are both tiny and feel cheap).

Not sure experiencing the web on a modem is a real factor here. Anecdotally, at least, I've certainly experienced the web on a modem -- and living in a rural area, broadband wasn't available for me until maybe 2005-2006 (and even then, only 1.5Mbps until around 2014) -- but I open multiple tabs not to let them load in the background, but to avoid unnecessary context switches. I can load ten tabs async, never context-switch, and then process the tabs one by one. Half the context switches of opening a page, going back, etc.

Does Jacky Chan have any saying in this? Or is anyone on the internet free to use his face however they like?

Yea, tech is not evil or good, it's all about how people use it and so far, deep fake tech has only been used for evil. From deep fake porn to fraud. The only not evil thing about this are the memes, but we can live without deep fake memes just fine.
Last time I checked, mumble didn't have a web client either

Man, that would be pretty sweet though. Someone could cobble together an unholy Mumble + Mastodon beast of privacy-respectful gaming communications
Yes, it's mostly fine doing that. The German law is incredibly stupid in the context of international law anyway.

The issue is that citizenship is stricly a country own prerogative outside of the agreement not to make people stateless. So Germany is free to tell you they won't give you the German nationality if you don't renounce your other ones and is free to strip you of your German nationality if they find you have another one.

Meanwhile, the other country can still consider you a citizen if it wants to. That's its sovereign right and it doesn't have to agree to you asking not to be considered one.
I think voice is a fine interface for a lot of smart home things. If I'm watching TV and want the lights on/off, I don't want:

* To have to reach for my phone
* To have a tablet mounted within reach (that's more clutter)
* To have to get up to the light switch/nearest controller.

This sounds lazy but that is literally the point of all this stuff - to make things convenient.

Likewise, if I'm in the kitchen and want to set a timer, I don't want to have to use my hands (I'm probably already using them), I just want to yell that I need a imer set.
Feed blockers extension helps a lot!

Apparently they have enough applicants that they need to cut down on the number of candidates.
That's why you don't do stuff like this for each and every subvariant. This is a once in half a century occasion, it absolutely pales in comparison to the amount of fuel the type has burned for trade show visits, photo opportunities and numerous other nonessentials. Arguably there isn't a single use case for jet aviation that isn't far out of the range of sustainable co2 budget.
That is some weird metaphysical shit. Or a weak excuse for a lack of impulse control.
> And this explains why Erlang hasn't conquered the world.

I suspect the reasons are less technical than marketing, timing, etc. It takes some experience to appreciate what it does - it's not an obvious sell like "get a webapp going in 30 min" can be for Ruby. Although Elixir/Phoenix are doing some amazing things to fix that :)

OS processes are a fine way to isolate concurrent processes if they're quite granular. It works less well when there's 10000 of them (e.g. websocket connections), and they want to share a DB connection pool, metrics, etc.
here's what i think: imagine if this was good, like it generated stuff that felt like a real episode, like you couldn't tell the difference. how uninteresting. the little bit of entertainment value this has is in being so stupid. the entertainment value of an episode of _seinfeld_ is inseparable from the fact it was written by a human.

Works pretty nice for a hobbyist. If you want something professional or for a product, than it would be something different.
I think its more complex than this. For sure H1Bs push down wages for certain positions in certain circumstances, but also it does also fill a skills shortage. There are some skills which no amount of offering higher pay will fix, you need to bring in the actual people with those skills. And when USA gets those people, that can make companies thrive and expand which then improves employment for Americans and pushes up wages for certain positions which helps Americans. I think its pretty hard to disentangle what the effect is really.
I've blocked myself out of YouTube with ColdTurkey. If I want to watch a video, I have to find it on Google Search, copy the link, paste the link into a website that generates a link to an embedded Video, and watch it there.

Clumsy as it gets, but that's how I like it. I can still watch stuff if I really want, but there are almost no recommendations and it's so cumbersome that I won't overdo it.

I've tried total abstinence. It wasn't sustainable for me, sadly.
I love how it got self-referential at one point

there's a web inside the bunch, in the space between the grapes. not in the grape itself.
Grounding issues on metal chassis is so strange. Creates a buzzing layer under you skin. Quite surprising the first time.
Hot upgrading is not a good example. There are infinity ways to do accomplish the same in other ecosystems, a very common example:
Upgrade nginx live and without dropping any connections.

Anyhow, instead of bolting that on to your project reinventing those patterns for the millionth time you can just adhere to ̶the c̶o̶n̶j̶o̶i̶n̶e̶d̶ ̶t̶r̶i̶a̶n̶g̶l̶e̶s̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶s̶u̶c̶c̶e̶s̶s̶ the tenants of 12 factor apps: https://12factor.net/disposability

> None of the other programming languages seem to have learned much of anything from Erlang--and that's kind of sad.

Learn you some very basic devops and you can collect on those erlang-y benefits using whatever languages/tooling/paradigms you want. A lot of it is flat out built into and managed by ye cloud providers.

Infra people squint at something like Beam/OTP and see a "control plane".
Maybe because mainstream comedy shows all follow canned patterns with lame and unoriginal jokes. To the point that even a machine can write a script that sounds very similar. Stuff like Friends or Big Bang Theory would probably work very well too.
People confuse the map with the territory
I'm a huge consumer of YouTube content, playing x2 speed all the time and now using AI to transcript and summarize. It's not that I'm afraid to miss high value added information on YouTube but I'm too lazy to read it elsewhere, except on HN.
Pinterest has 150 people working on it?? How is it possible that product has been still so bad for years?

edit, they have 4000, I don't know anything
Absolutely, and I think that's what I'll end up doing.
For the enterprise.. look and feel..
Some actionable takeaways about the abstract machine and undefined behavior of the standard.

* Just because something is undefined in the standard now, it does not mean that it has to be undefined forever. It might be an oversight, or priorities might shift. If you disagree with a particular undefined behavior and about ways how it can manifest you can raise it with the committee and/or compiler vendor.

* The behavior of a program is just as defined by the implementation now than before a standard existed. If you write code that contains operations where the standard does not define behavior, the implementation might (but they don't have to). Consult your implementation for the compilers you care about. They have flags to enable certain extensions that define the behavior of some operations, at the expense of disabling some optimizations.
“NSFW deepfakes” literally means “porn with real people’s faces inserted.”

Maybe that’s an art form, but it’s also clearly potentially harmful in the same way as revenge porn, teenage nude selfies, and other cases where regular people and porn intersect.
Multiple people OD on drugs that they bought on SR. SR also sold stuff like hacking tools and fake documents.
Ross allowed minors to buy drugs on his site and had no mechanisms to prevent that.

Alcohol and cigarette vendors aren't allowed to sell their goods to minors. If they do that - they can be punished and the minor who bought that stuff is considered a victim.

So it's no different with SR and other illegal markets.

SR is actually worse than street dealers, because at least some of them refuse to sell drugs to children.
Switch to Mastodon for your project? Im sure your teacher will understand the situation.
Wouldn't it be easier to make Earth better than to make Mars better than Earth?
Kinda agree. I like to raise GAS levels as high as possible but by balancing the fun, effort level and importance.
Luck = All the things that that are too complex for us to understand bunched up in to one.

Luck is a narrative concept that is not useful in reasoning.

For example in the article:

> As many people pointed out, Jenner’s success would have been impossible if she hadn’t been born white, healthy, rich, and famous

She could not have been born as anything but those things. Those things are what she is and removing them would not simply make her "unlucky", it would make her in to another person. Luck as used here in the article is just a way to differentiate and classify people, it does not have causal power.
yeah essentially i was trying to remove backgrounds on the scraped jpegs by just swapping pixel colors which worked horribly, decided to just keep it as a plain white background till i setup some fancier solution to remove backgrounds
“Marginally Aerobatic”

Gotta love the understatement there.
My favourite was a training I took once which, if clicked through fast enough, would just skip right past the tests. There was no final check for how well you did, so my "you passed" certificate at the end proudly displayed that I had passed with a 10% score (because I answered the first few questions before realising the bug).
From your ranking, L9 seems to not depend on the company anymore, looks more research. You cannot expect to shape/redefine industry every year, that's absurd. By this model every math/physics/chemistry research teacher should be fired every year.

And to be honest I don't think google has these expectations. Most probably he was was fired for different reasons, not performance
This kind of technology is far too useful to repressive regimes and those who wish to do nasty things with it.

This means that the incentive to develop this technology is already there, and so it WILL be developed no matter how much people wish it wouldn't.

The only difference at this point is whether some of the implementations are developed in public view or not. If none are public, then all of them will be done in secret, and our opportunities to develop countermeasures will be severely hampered by having fewer eyes on it, and a smaller entry funnel for potential white hats.
yeah but they last way longer than necessary outside of the fridge anyway.

They'll last at least a month, some have even found eggs last in excess of 100 days, there have been rumours of a year but I've never seen it.

The problem with refridgerated eggs is that they don't tend to be as loose, this is fine for poached eggs but less fun for mayo or baking.
