Everyone thinks that this is a shield but what if I tell you, it could be a sword.

Imagine those who want nothing to do with ChatGPT, now has to subscribe to a service to tell whether something is AI generated (for e.g. social media paying to combat spam bot, etc.)

But I doubt it's ever going to reliable? Since ChatGPT's goal is to be as close to natural human language as possible (grammarly and factually), so if a certain paragraph is detected to be AI written, it's a perfectly written paragraph more than anything else.

Unless they invent some subset of English language that only AI knows.

Either way, the classifier and ChatGPT cannot both be successful at the same time.
Israel’s Law of Return stills favor matrilineal descent (because of halakhic law) even though it is partially open to patrilineal descent now. Also you lose the Law of Return even if you have 100% Jewish ancestry but officially convert to a different religion.

It’s to be expected somewhat, but the way Israel mixes religion and policy creates a ton of complexity. Just look up how marriages work.
Can also get a long way just with Tasmota smart plugs. Set up timers, can still press a button on the side of it to turn on and off. Mqtt for phone control override and can go the full home assistant if you want to go that way. Also very helpful provide detailed power consumption stats.

Athom do both tasmota and esphome pre-installed. Haven't tried esphome plus. I get their stuff from Ali and it has been ok so far. Anyone had good experiences with something else and I'm all ears.

Man this is hilarious, the chat + the glitches make it even more so.
Every time a company like Microsoft or Facebook talks about how my messages are E2EE inside of their app I always read: "Now only we and you can read your messages, no one else."

What's the point of E2EE if you can't be sure that the decrypting app isn't sending your data elsewhere?

Hello, Neo.
The original comment is suggesting that you outright lie on your resume. Then galleywest200 suggested that if you just do some studying it's okay to represent that as actual working experience, which is also lying.

I don't understand why people think it's okay to outright lie on your resume.
anything for android/ios YouTube app?
I think the real question is, can Google package this in an exciting and usable way? Because right now OpenAI is shitting the bed with ChatGPT with the random censoring and the constant down time. The bar really isn't super high right now.

Yeah, I think you guys are right. It's like the history of vitamin C and scurvy on ships. We seem to have collectively lost some very obvious and straightforward knowledge

The usual explanation is that non-JavaScript devs (every programmer over the age of 40) was an amazing genius, and we need Electron/Flutter/Node/left-pad/etc now since there are so many new coders. I think you're on to something though. Somehow modern practices just result in wasting incredible amounts of time and effort tinkering with fiddly frameworks and boilerplate code
Wow that's a nice startup deal.

It's not a "technology" in any classical sense of this word.

This is a funny and technologically useless rattle that can be used as a Chinese-made Kalashnikov assault rifle.
I'm guessing that in well-run departments, bad cops tend to get pushed out quickly, before they do something really bad that's worthy of news coverage (plus, they probably have better hiring practices to try to identify who's a good "cultural fit"). Plus, departments probably try to avoid media coverage of anything that makes them look bad, just like any organization.

Police unions nationwide are probably a net negative I'd agree, but claiming that good departments wouldn't have any union at all seems a big extreme. Public service employee unions are pretty normal in the US.
Is this the beginning of the "interdimensional cable TV"? Instead of pulling content from other dimension, we'll be generating it though.
> It's also not the case that C only succeeded in environments that were designed for it. In fact C succeeded in at least one OS environment that was relatively hostile to it and that wanted to be used with an entirely different language.

Well, I had to look into what was this.

And as expected it refers to C uptake against Pascal on the Mac OS.

Except what replaced Object Pascal was C++, not C, even though C minded folks like to think otherwise.

MacApp was ported from Object Pascal into C++, and Metrowerks also added PowerPlant to the party.

MPW ultimately happened, because a few folks pushed for it.

After Object Pascal, the new kid on the block for Apple was C++, even if Macintosh Toolbox exposed API entry points as C like.

Newton OS (Dylan lost to C++), Taligent and Copland were also mainly C++ based.

>"attention seeking"

Oh I stand by that comment. It is my opinion, did it offend you? I'm curious why you even felt the need to comment. Not every Briton has the power to do what she did. So the article is essentially just about her. She told all her friends what she was doing beforehand. Now what type of behaviour would you describe this as?
That's not a fair comparison. Looki at Netlify[0] and Vercel's [1] pricing sites, the per-user pricing for the "pro" tiers is the same and Vercel gates the features that are in the Netlify "business" tier behind an enterprise contact-us paywall.

I suspect that if you're using these "as expected", your bill on both sites would be the same.

uBlock is great for this sort of stuff. I also use it to hide the Hot Network Questions on Stack Overflow. I often get distracted by those.
I currently have a SmartThings Hub and Homeassistant Yellow, but if I were starting over today, I'd be all in on Matter (mostly thread) and avoid ZWave and Zigbee outright. I'm mostly stuck to zwave because of my blinds, but I think I will slowly replace all my smart home related things with Matter.

There's still a few sensors that there don't have a Matter equivalent yet, but I think that'll change soon.
The latest Teams update lost the ability to paste from a Teams chat message into plain text (e.g. Visual Studio Code). All the line breaks disappear.

The only way around this is to have a random Microsoft Word window, paste the Teams message into Word, and then copy from Word into Visual Studio Code.

Aaargh Microsoft! A mindbogglingly dumb regression for a 5 year old product.
From the opening section:

> The radical solution to avoid that addicting design is to avoid it entirely, but there is still so much good information in there that it probably doesn’t make sense.

I think you've already lost half the battle at this point. I think that if people actually did go without their favorite internet kick for a few weeks they'd find that they're really not missing much, if anything.

I've done it multiple times, traveling abroad with low data or censored internet, e.g. in China, and can confidently state at least for myself that I can live happily without Youtube / social media for a long time, probably even indefinitely.
Both Android and iOS devices can be put into so-called Kiosk mode when they run a single app without other chrome. Is that not acceptable? The cheapest fire tablet is fine for the use-case.
I hate Teams as much as the next guy but markers to see which people spoke when in the recording sound cool. It's also something that would have been possible to make even in the 90s (teams knows which microphone was active so no need for AI) so hopefully they won't mess it up
Unless you have a person responsible for organizing the wiki, you'll end up with a lot of documents / pages the bigger the team is.

Three of the aspects to look at that could make your life easier are:

- a tool that allows great UX for easy linking between documents / pages / folders

- the way the wiki is structured and how enforced this structure is

- rich options for embeds that you can integrate in your wiki

Easy linking / autocomplete of pages is really helpful to interlink your wiki and update old content at the same time. The better the UX, the less likely it is that people leave outdated information or documents that nobody checked for a long time.

Regarding structure - you could pick a system that enforces folders or a tree-like structure but both options have the problem of trying to fit all documents into categories. Something more flexible might help having an organized wiki without thinking about its structure. Saga (https://saga.so) solves this in an interesting way with collections (a mix of folders and tags) and page linking.
Sure, however they are mostly UNIX inspired if you will, as anything else.
I know, I was also joking, and I mistakenly assumed that would be obvious because who would write, "oh no I just ate some cordyceps!!" but then I looked it up, and I guess you can in fact eat those, and people do, so the joke is on me.
Wow, I love the concept but why is this different from creating a group on Strava and check members in it?
Not sure about running it from a bootable USB stick, but DOSBox + Win 3.11 was fairly simple to set up on Mac, i.e. I have no internet, but MS Bob works like charm.
I guess you mean in my comment here on HN? Because there is no marketing copy on the website that talks about how it works. There is a Help page which right now needs to be pretty technical.

If you mean in the HN comment, I deliberately did not create an advertisement here but rather a technical request for beta testers since that is what this thread is about.

But in general that's great to have the reminder to make some marketing copy and put it on the website at some point. Right now just trying to make the basic concept actually work which is one of the hardest tasks that anyone on the planet has taken up with LLMs.
I've got an old iPad Air 2 lying around and a full Home Assistant setup, but I haven't bothered doing anything with it - frankly, I don't get it.

Unless your place is quite small, a wall mounted tablet just seems like a hassle. Even disregarding all the hassle with the mounting and interface config, what are the advantages? Having to walk to a single position to control my smart home doesn't seem very smart, honestly? Can anyone educate me?
>Travelers to the Philippines are sometimes puzzled to see the statue of this same man, José Rizal, in practically every town plaza on the islands.

dumb tourists, maybe

Personally, I kinda ruined a romantic date in Intramuros by wanting to visit that museum, and then buying and wearing the shirt from Rizal. (you have to choose your priorities, between cheesy 'i love you and this park is so cute' and 'viva la Révolution, colonialism is all over').

And it was worth it, I'm now a bit smarter.

But yeah, as a tourist from France, I was surprised by how dystopian looked Manila.

- Signs and everything remotely important were in American English.

- Some justice court, next to the museums, was in the same building as a Chowking (a fast food chain), which was maybe the worst place to assert the sobriety of justice and public services.

- Everyone had SUVs and cars from TV series, as cycling and public transit aren't that developed.

- There were private security officers all over, as if the government didn't exist, and the ones would could pay would decide what was worth to protect.

- The workforce was ridiculously cheap and allocated inefficiently. There were a lot of security guards for private houses, you could take the tricycles to go around the city. Why isn't workforce more expensive and allocated in industries and R&D ?

- Most filipinos I knew were studying in public universities, paid by state, just to be able to move oversea when they graduate. It's a very bad investment.

- And laws don't make any sense. I'm about to loose my Globe prepaid SIM, as the government just mandated to whitelist who can access the mobile phone network in the PH (the whitelist : Filipinos, residents, oversea filipinoes, aka everyone but tourists). As if you can regulate who can access a public network to make it secure.

However, I have a different perspective than the OP about his own article.

The article depicts modern days Philippines as a 'tyranny', and encourages to 'Let the knife, the Philippine bolo, speak.' to establish freedom.

But as far as I understood on my trip, the country has too much freedom : it's just on neoliberal autopilot. There is no real government to overthrow in a revolution.

The Philippines lack a vision or a dream or something. You guys need to _build_ a state and institutions that can be held accountable, and that can foster a debate to create things that make sense.

The article notes that, in "As the writer Eric Gamalinda has noted, only two things unite Filipinos: gossip and José Rizal." So there needs to be more !

Bolo time is over, now build the nation with books and laws !

Tell HN: Microsoft just disabled Exchange sync for all Android phones. EEE?
Like the title says, Microsoft just permanently disabled user+pw auth for Exchange, which means all Android phones that use the built-in Exchange ActiveSync client have stopped working. The only remaining way to access your Outlook calendar on Android is now the official Microsoft Outlook app. All 3rd-party apps are locked out because the OS support for the account type is missing. Looks like Embrace + Extend + Extinguish is back in full force.

Can you recommend any interesting groups? I use Discord all the time, but in my experience it's all just noob programmers, cryptocurrency people, gamers, and troglodytes. (What it says about me that I'm in these groups, I'll leave as an exercise to the reader)
Huh. So L7-L9 are L3s that are good at marketing and slap the Google badge on everything they do?

Well, I guess that explains both why they fire them and why golang.org became go.dev.
I'd rather have a good (all I've seen are grotesquely low-quality gimmick) Windows3x/9x/XP shell for modern OSes.

IMHO what we need to preserve is retro UX seamlessly integrated into the modern world (e.g. a pixel-perfect Win3x-like DE based on all the modern libraries/kernels and this way capable of interacting with modern web and peripherals).

But it's definitely nice to see people are developing anything cool for Windows 3.11. I would certainly install it if my Windows 3.11 PC was not left in another country.

Any screenshots BTW?

Imagine a world where Apple did not latch onto C++ but rather... lisp.
But why (+ 1 2 3) and not +(1 2 3) since the head is special? Or (1 2 3 +) so nested trees are built bottom up?
I was a weird edge case, so had to get private: at the time of my residence permit application, I was a resident of a country that did not have compulsory health insurance (pre-ACA USA), married to a German with private insurance, and not yet employed (and no immediate prospects). I had to have German health insurance to get the residence permit, so private it was.
There was a transition period (think it was 1-2y) where nobody would be promoted to 7.5 anymore. People who were already 7.5 had the duration of the transition to try to get promoted to 8. If they were still 7.5 at the end of the period they were converted back to 7.

I am pretty sure the period in which you were at Google was after the transition started
> the national agencies wanted to shine and test their new gadget

Exactly. After reading the press release and how they promote their device, I'm not so sure this wasn't deliberate.

Yeah, I had some success with generating conjugation tables for irregular verbs in Portuguese, but that's just rote memorisation. I still had to clean them up, but the entire process was quicker than typing manually or web scraping.

Yeah. But I'm surprised by how many people in tech are okay with this strategy. I guess, not everyone in "tech" is Stallman's friend )
A large data set will be biased if the sum of data is leaning towards some direction.

I'm not sure you can produce a truly unbiased model without actively interfering with it.

Just consider the fact that you'll find less republicans among scientists. (source: https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2009/07/09/section-4-sc...)

Now the research-based data on ChatGPT will be biased. It takes no active "inserting" by OpenAI. It may manage creating the bias all by itself.
Well they mentioned "basic tier API", so I guess let's wait for the pricing and capabilities, no? My main criticism is they're not being assholes just for charging for an API access to their data.
I vaguely remember the late David Graeber covering this in either his Bullshit Jobs book or blog.
It seems to me your definition of luck is unfalsifiable, therefore useless.
That's a really weird suggestion. Get some buttons. Ikea Tradfri buttons work. Aquara makes some as well but I have no experience with them.
How is the death penalty more expensive?

Maybe in the USA where it's applied poorly and has huge waiting times, etc.

But an expedited death penalty for repeat violent offenders would avoid a lot of issues. I doubt it's more expensive in China or Dubai for example.
So it’s your fault, then?
I don’t really want the industry redefined constantly, but some

Owntone does Spotify premium accounts and serves up a web page you can use to control it. Itunes remote app as provided by Apple or "Retune" app on droid also work to control. Any additional airplay speakers (or shairport-sync) can control to have the sound coming out of them aka multiroom. Owntone integrates nicely with home assistant if you want to go there too.

If you can run a light webpage with the tablet it should be enough. Owntone and homeassistant need to run somewhere else on your network like on a pi, or an old laptop.

Your app only heating controls may well also integrate with homeassistant, a hell of a lot of that kind of stuff does. Homeassistant also serves up a light web page as a control interface. There's phone & tablet apps too.

Worth a look, imho.
> I thought around 80% of big tech companies are still maintaining giant Java monoliths that are attached to a giant Oracle database that nobody understands.

I may or may not know lots of people who even develop new systems that way. In part due to them not knowing better, in part due to it being an okay fit for the problem that they want to solve and in part because they haven't and won't be fired for picking what has historically been a "safe" option.

More people have probably gotten burnt in the process of developing microservices and failing at it, than have been by their monoliths rotting over time and failing to scale, unless it's in an org with a strong ops culture and the support to do microservices right (with all of the tooling, like service meshes, tracing, orchestration and so on).

I reckon that many out there have done nor microservices, nor serverless, nor have any interest to. They're just the silent majority: https://vadimkravcenko.com/shorts/the-silent-majority/

Obligatory advice that you shouldn't run tcpdump, tshark or wireshark as root or with sudo. Instead, set up least privileges (e.g. with capabilities) or at least use the tcpdump flag `-Z` (may be enabled by default at compile time in your distribution). Debian has a group called "wireshark" for this use case by default.
Ouch. Python on Windows? I sympathize.
I got hung up on your first paragraph. How is strict determinism incompatible with quantum physics? I would have said the opposite, that it was required by quantum physics. Unless somehow your consciousness reaches its fingers in from outside physics to change quantum interactions.
Well, yeah but they have nuclear weapons so that limits the amount the West can do to help.

For a comparison of what happens when a country does this and doesn't have nuclear weapons - see the First Gulf War.

It seems the energy situation has gone better than expected so far, but if the war drags on it could be hard to sustain that.

I don't think anyone disagrees with you that the Russians are the bad guys here.
How exactly are we supposed to interpret the oft-repeated, but at face-value, nonsensical meme that SF was actually fine, until Chesa ruined it?

All of the city's serious problems were around long before him, and will persist in the exact same way, now that he's gone, much like they have in Seattle. You're getting needlessly political about your single pet issue.
