Yes, if that's what they were doing, but I'd have to see specific links. (For example I don't think https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35366985 broke the site guidelines although it wasn't entirely un-edgy either.)
No, I was rate limited. I can only seem to do about 3 comments per hour even in completely different threads.
I doubt that the quality of the content will get any worse, given where the BuzzFeed bar already was.
That's really good advice if you use the same password for everything. It becomes untenable with the, what, hundred+ websites I have a login for, each with their own password.
> By your logic, the US shouldn't ban products produced by slave labor. Do you mean to make that argument? If not, what would be different there?

I'm not quite sure that's the same? As long as the US bans products produced by slave labour regardless of country of origin, there's no problem here.

But in any case: yes, I can bite the bullet on that one, the US doesn't necessarily need to ban products produced by slave labour.
That reads like a freshman’s essay on Baudrillard. It’s really hard to make sense of it.

I think there's room here to have a 'public option' open source implementation with appropriate governance / rules. Give everyone a basic 10 digit @ email.usa.gov.

But I also think there should be a government regulated digital 'town square' for each level of government, with township / county being optional but the rest funded by taxes. Then have those groups determine what is allowed and what's not, through people they nominate in elections. This is like the 'public option' for Facebook.

But mostly I just think this because I want more tax dollars to go to open source projects trying to solve problems that are very real and very much caused by the incentives of private industry.
Sorry to hear this has been challenging - were you trying to do something like this, where you select a row in the table, and then make another API request with data from that row?

The legal fee thing is a case of misdemeanor falsification of business records on its own.

The fact that it was done to cover up a second crime (breaking federal campaign finance law) arguably converts it to a felony according to New York state law.

I've enabled the one option which is supposed to affect this:

and I have disabled every flag for Microsoft Edge related to scrolling.

It's robustly, and intentionally broken, and I rue the day that I found it necessary to update, and I really wish someone would make a tablet w/ a Wacom EMR stylus which would run the Mac OS.
Looks very slick! As someone who hacked on something similar for sketch, this looks much more polished. But I think the killer feature would be the formalisation of the protocol to support outputting to any language/framework.

As someone who keeps running into problems with the design->develop iteration cycle, I’m going to watch this closely. Great work and good luck!

You are right that OpenAI won’t be the “owner of AI”.

And Google was a wonderful company to work for.

But there’s a revolution going on now. Not just in tech. Everything is changing very quickly. Tech is just a bit catalizer of the process that we are going through as humanity.

AI wants to be open, available and accessible to everyone.

The sentiment is very clear from all the projects that people are building.

People are feeling empowered.

And they are adding fuel to the fire.

Trying my best to not engage in any pointless discourse in this thread, but there were plenty of highly armed people (quite literally waiting to be called in, staying in nearby hotels - just because they were dumbasses doesn’t mean they weren’t highly armed) as well as the fact they did try to call the military in & it was hindered by maleficence.
You're right. Corrected

You will simply not re-create the sound that a real piano creates in a room with a digital signal, going into some amp and pair of ordinary speakers.
Love Dalibor's work. I have the Puri clock, and it is a real statement piece that wows people. I didn't get it for that, I just got it half because I loved the aesthetic and half I wanted to support someone doing something that unique (one of those things I would personally like to do in a life after software).

On the plus side, Dalibor himself has been extremely helpful in answering questions and resolving minor issues with the clock (both software issues, both quickly resolved).

It is undoubtedly a hard to justify luxury item, but if on the fence you should buy it. It is more impressive in person than I imagined.
Regarding the singularity, I kind of have the impression that people tend to think of it as the moment when AI (or technology generally) reaches a point of shiny amazingness. However, I think that's the wrong way to look at it. The AI or technology may end up being quite pedestrian and unimpressive; but the point where it crosses over human ability to keep pace is going to be set more by the complete lack of awareness, organisation, and focus of humanity.

Consider that even today, every member of the species has differing opinions, care-factors, and focus regarding the subject of environmental protection. There are competing agendas.

I suggest the exact same situation will be the deciding factor for the subject of AI. The AI may not be that impressive. But the human reaction to it will suck.
Try using Tik Tok in China vs USA. The feeds are very different. The CCP has the influence to only allow more positive and educational topics on their social media. In the USA its the EXACTLY OPPOSITE. Whether you can blame culture, the government, whatevers, something needs to be done. USA media is out of control and if the gov needs to have a hand in it, let them.
What is incredible in this case:

[Steven Donziger] "argued that his prosecution violated his rights under the U.S. Constitution because *private* lawyers appointed by a federal judge handled the case against him... after the U.S. Justice Department declined to prosecute"
I am going to post a mildly unpopular opinion on what it actually means.

In a word: nothing.

Regardless of how you see Trump, he is, and has been basically since he became President, the presumptive nominee of the Republican party with remaining candidates hoping to take him down. With all that in mind, what does this indictment actually mean in terms of possible penalty?

In a word: nothing.

Felon can still run for POTUS spot. There is a reason for that too along the lines of "well, you don't want current political party to just make up shit willy-nilly".

All this before we even get to the substance of the actual transgression, which, to me at least, is on about the same level as Bill Clinton's charge ( and arguably, his was worse depending on deeply you want to discuss it -- because contrary to some comedians, it was not just about a bj ).

So who benefits?

Trump. Media ( good circus equals good ratings ). The guy who will be running the circus will make a name for himself.

And.. that is it. I am not even sure why I am taking this as stoically as I am. Maybe the over the top happiness displayed on other social media made me hesitate.

FWIW, I am all about 'no one is above the law', but, I think, anyone on this forum can easily point to instances where that is not exactly axiomatic lately. And I think you will note my restraint in not pointing out any names for the sake of trying to keep this post semi-neutral in tone.

Now.. note that they are getting him on some relatively small stuff. All that stuff about Russia, nuclear secrets raid, running bs charity, being peed on.. none of that panned out in a way that touched Trump. And that is the last card to play.

You would think they would get him at least on something better to put on the news. They are getting him on a legal technicality that he will shrug off the same way he shrugged off not paying taxes.

And this? This will only make believers more adamant and it does not in any way damage Trump. This is democrats saying:

"We don't know how, but by golly we are gonna lose this one!"

I was not aware of all you wrote. I guess thanks for picking up the ball when I dropped it.

As an eastern European, for whom high school had almost nothing to say about American history (other than WWII) and afterwards I originally learned the usually parroted variant only to later correct the knowledge I had, I am baffled again and again every time when learning new things about the putrid fractal that is slavery in the US. I was never even that curious in the first place.

I did hear about the prison industrial complex but I had no idea about the "Angola" and how close this gets to slavery called by a different name. Reading about it now. I believed that while for profit prisons were inhuman, prisoners were not used for forced labor. I always kinda assumed that meant that prisons received so much money from the state they even made a profit.

That major western brands make use of it feels nauseating. I believed this was stuff we were criticizing China for.
No, that’s easy to fix with a piece of electrical tape
Which is really why this international criminal court has no real meaning - only the winner in a conflict gets to also win in the court.

For example, do you really think that by charging putin, that he'd really get arrested in participating countries? Or would the warrant be ignored?

And if putin does lose his war, and goes into exile, the ICC warrants would then be possible to enforce (now that no nukes is on the line). But putin knows this, so if the war goes badly, would it not make better sense to fight it out to the bitter end, rather than lose out to being arrested if he goes on exile?

The court that has no enforcement mechanism is mostly just political show boating.

I mean it’s possible but I haven’t seen evidence of it. Death classification is usually handled by a medical examiner, who is a doctor.
My knowledge of political events is sparse because I haven't dedicated the time it takes to acquire the prerequisite knowledge.

However, I'd be interested in learning more from those here who do have that knowledge and are willing to share perspective on these sort of events.

In general, I think it's valuable to be curious about things you're not necessarily interested in.
Sure if there’s an actual crime, but what exactly is worthy of charging here? The point of a fair justice system is not to charge a specific someone with something, it’s to go after a specific crime.

The legal gymnastics this DA is jumping through to attach charges here makes a joke of the entire justice system. I won’t be surprise if Bragg is disbarred for this.
I'd like to see someone exposing a Tesla to a intricately produced Wile E. Coyote tunnel. I would predict that it would stop, because the vision stack leans heavily on motion vectors to map out drivable space. And even if it didn't, the tunnel could only be painted to have the correct perspective at one point along the road. Moving closer would result in the model seeing the road get narrower, causing the car to slow down (narrower roads necessitate slower speed) until it gets within a few car lengths — at which point the painted road would appear so narrow as to be literally undriveable.

If Tesla hasn't already tested this in simulation, I'd be astounded.

Also if a false tunnel good enough to fool FSD beta, I'd suspect it'd also be good enough to fool a decent proportion of human drivers too.
Same here. Got a very rare paperback which was in brand new condition.

There is the slim possibility that if the war goes very badly a small group of very senior Russian generals arrange to capture Putin, depose him, put themselves in place as some sort of junta, remove russian ground forces from Ukraine, and hand him over to the ICC to repair Russia's relationship with the rest of the world.

This looks pretty cool. This is no small feat.

I'm not actually sure if the product _and_ company are named flowy, or if the company is flowy and the product is named talksik (from the screen recording). Your post here doesn't clarify, but I will stick with flowy for this reply.

Though I think that you'll have some difficulties in getting sales (who knows I might be totally incorrect). I say that for a couple of reasons:

1. I think with only 24 hours of history it is somewhat limited, let's say I work in Boston, what about the Friday afternoon message that my Seattle colleague sends me as I'm finishing up, I'll want to replay it on Monday morning but it won't be there. A save for later function would be helpful.

2. Let's imagine I am a potential investor, I ask you "what does flowy have to offer if Slack implements a voice message feature?" What is your answer? From your website I honestly don't know, sure it's not Slack, so there are no Slack channels with hundreds of people and that one person who hits @here, and at some companies Slack is like a social media network without the moderation or block button. But Slack offers a lot, a rich ecosystem of plugins / bots for one.

3. Slack (and Teams et al.) offer a written history (leaving aside the caveat of the edit button for the moment), if I forget the specifics of what my colleague and I agreed on last week I can go back to Slack and read the message thread, if we use flowy that history is gone without transcribing the message.

One place that I can see this tool being somewhat useful is as a secondary mode of communication between a handful of engineers. Numerous times a week I consider uninstalling Slack from my work laptop, but that would leave my close colleagues high and dry. flowy _could_ be a useful tool in combatting that. Though given that a company is already paying for Slack / Teams etc. they would rightfully be hesitant to purchase a subscription to flowy.

I am glad to see that you have screen-sharing included already because that is so integral to so many peoples workflows.

It is fascinating that in almost everything that seeks to emulate nature, eventually we will find that the design used by nature is the most efficient and capable one, likely exceed most things we can come up with.

We can make things "better" in some specific tasks, but for something that do everything a natural design can do, we can't match evolution.

The brain is analog. And it is funny to me that just now we start to think maybe an analog computer is probably better than a digital one to emulate it.
He’s the result of our crappy primary system.

The UK Tories decided to copy it and wound up with Liz Truss. The Canadian Conservatives tried something similar and wound up with obscurity.
Because people dig the sound.
Normally I'd be with you but then CoD MW2 came out. It's got your normal old school shooty shooty pew pew... it's got a very good battle royale... and then they also added a version of counter strike that I acutally like, a version of tarkov I actually like, and several other game types, hell even multiple raids like ow2 was supposed to have. It's like an ur shooter with enough people to play in each and every one of these hoppers. It's kinda amazing that it's just fun across the board, so much so I haven't even tried the campaigns.

Stepping back there's been many excellent AAA games in the last 3 / 5 / 10 years. There have never really been that many (sub 30) AAA studios. People move in and out all the time. They each ship a game every 3-6 years. That's kinda the name of the game.

What games did you dislike? what did you try, what disappointing you? You talk really abstractly / vaguely.
It seems wild to make this argument before the indictment has been unsealed. Shouldn’t we wait to see the allegations before we declare them baseless?
It certainly looked like FUD, but I do agree completely with everything else you wrote.
Really? Pop culture wordlists are insanely common and small - sometimes they're run Before general ones because they're fast to go through and have so many hits.

This response isn't for you par se, I just don't want people to go off and think they're protected with beyonceMadonna because they read it on hacker news.

Put your needles in the biggest haystacks you can find, not the rarefied air of celebrities.

Also don't think you're protected with "old" names like GreenDayEminem. Using older celebrity lists to preference forgotten or abandoned accounts is another common technique. Sometimes you're just a stepping stone and not the target.

Find a bigger crowd to get lost in. For instance, say an address + phone number of a place you remember that's not yours. 419FSt#201 is an old friend and 8184093100 is a friend I had in childhood. Those are two big crowds. Phone numbers have way more structure than you probably think but it's still a fairly big haystack.
And if it's not: why bother.
"Traditional" hacking is getting pretty rough, basically a gamble to find an exploit, social engineering will be the easiest vector to attack something. Being able to gather data and influence will make it that much easier. I mean even Jeff Bezos got hacked by his Saudi "friends."

Pretty sure newsgroups were killed by spam and lack of moderation. I spent a lot of time on them back in the day, and by the time Google got in the game they were already dying. By the time they digested Deja, Usenet was a tiny fraction of original size (if you discard spam).

Indications are that it's easier to synthesize than morphine. If so, one doesn't run the trafficking risk with local production. Seems also it's cheaper (pushers make more profit).

> Sure if there’s an actual crime, but what exactly is worth of charging here?

... because there is a law on the books that says "it's a crime to do this thing" and this person pretty clearly did that thing.

Like, from a political perspective, I'm in the boat of "uggggh, I wish it wasn't this thing that is the first thing he is charged for". But from a legal perspective ... this is a thing you're not allowed to do ... which he did ... so ...
“Relating to society or social relations”

For example, you probably don’t pick your spouse or decide to have kids based solely on their economic contributions to your life, but are rather trying to optimize across more dimensions, including social considerations.
Do you have access to the case including evidence? The jury did and voted to indict, how can you be sure that this is legal gymnastics?
That’s the problem - sometimes they are great. They are more complex devices that use parts from random Chinese suppliers.

Incandescent bulbs were very simple. Cheap vs name brand. White vs soft white. 120v vs 130v. LEDs have at least 7 attributes, some of which are not documented well or at all.

Tell me what LED bulb is ideal to produce 1500 lumens of output in an outdoor semi-enclosed fixure? It will take about 10 minutes of googling around if you are in the know. The average consumer doesn’t have a chance.
i like how they used a little more than 50% of domain specific text and a little less of general text. it beats the other LLMs on financial tasks for 4 out of 5 tasks usually by a large margin and but another one squeaks past it on NER.
>”Me, I just try to not do that.”

A well meaning sentiment but we all break the law on a daily basis. The amount of laws in the US Code is staggering and if a motivated DA wants to charge someone of a crime, they’ll find a way. Three Felonies a Day: How the Feds Target the Innocent by Harvey Silvergate is a perfect primer on this subject.

From what I understand, this indictment is about accounting and how a payment was classified. Not that the payment itself was illegal, or that it was some bombshell. Some argue it was a legal expense, some argue it should have been a campaign expenditure. It could go either way.
