Try Bottles (use bottles.com).. I smashed through the Diablo 4 Beta on VanillaOS and Bottles and can also confirm that Overwatch, Hearthstone, StarCraft and Diablo 3 works. The scaling / DPI for the BattleNet client is a little small on my 4K monitor, but other than that, it works well.
There's kind of a fun brain teaser related to this. Imagine you're speaking to an entirely alien species in another dimension. And you're trying to describe "left" to them. It's impossible.

I say it's a brain teaser only because this sounds highly improbable at first. Forwards and backwards can be described, and even up/down if we assume basic fundamental rules remain the same. Yet left and right? It seems impossible for it to be impossible.
To add to this, the law allows for data collection for a bunch of reasons. However, it intended to put a stop to a lot of data collection practices that were not to the benefit of the user, and informed consent is an exception to still allow for that, but only in the case that the user is actually actively OK with it. But of course, companies then started harassing users to make them agree, and the narrative arose that the EU "forced" them to do it.

I chose the example image with a man in a yellow shirt doing something next to a yellow car, with a yellow taxi driving in the background. I replaced the example question with my own:

Q: How many cars are in the picture?

A: There is a single car visible in the image.

Q: Is that true?

A: Yes, there is only one car visible in the image.

Q: How many yellow objects are in the image?

A: There are two yellow objects in the image.

Q: What are they?

A: One of the yellow objects is a man holding onto a clothesline while standing on a car. The other yellow object is a suitcase on the same car.

Every single answer was wrong.
Not sure I understand. Directions are relative. I'd describe "left" how I describe every other direction.
In Firefox the Cookie Autodelete and Temporary Containers extensions are two options for that.

> having good recommendations was the sort of thing that would keep the service "sticky" and prevent subscriber churn

It's the opposite. The primary cause of churn is that there is nothing a subscriber wants to watch. You might assume that a recommendation helps a user maximise the amount of the library they will watch but it actually helps the user conclude there is nothing they want to watch and leave.

Netflix wants their library to be more like a one-armed bandit. Users have to gamble on whether they will like something and they will never know they have run out. They want the user to keep hanging on, to keep scrolling, assuming something great is just around the corner, never getting to "I'm done with this".

I noticed this effect with the DVD subscription. If you added 3 discs to your queue, they would send the first two but not the third, waiting for you to add some less desirable titles to your queue, which they would send before they sent your high priority title. If your needs get satisfied, your subscription ends. It's a fundamentally user hostile business.
I understand that python is the go-to language when it comes to developing AI/LLM applications. But with foundational models nowadays, http request decouples the tie.

In German law you don't have to assist law enforcement in building a case against you, so you don't need to provide passwords or say anything. But you can be forced to unlock your device via biometrics (fingerprint, faceID, etc.).

Unsure if you were getting at this too, but software development in the UK can absolutely be ineligible for R&D tax credits yet still require treatment as capital expenditure for tax purposes (and thus not simply fully deductible in year 1 like revenue expenditure) - see [0] from the AAT on this.

> So what are concept good for? I think it is mostly about documenting your code.

Emphasis mine. While it is somewhat good as documentation, sometimes static_assert with a custom diagnostic message is sometimes better for this purpose.

The hidden power of concepts/constraints is the way it shapes overload sets. You can have something like:

template <forward_range R>
void foo(R&& r) {
/* some generic algorithm */
}

template <random_access_range R>
void foo(R&& r) {
/* optimized for random access */
}

and it will work if you pass a random access range, as the compiler can deduce that it's more specific than a forward range to resolve the ambiguity. Prior to concepts writing code that did this was way more cumbersome.

I concur. Throwing in more and more compute to make digital dreams more and more realistic doesn't seem to be an efficient strategy for video generation where you need to keep lots of out-of-the-picture context in memory.
Even where it happens (it's common, the cases I know personally are Nantes or Antwerp) it's still obvious which side is right and which side is left, it's simply according to the main flow of the river.

Although in this instance, I think it's more common to talk about north/island/south in Nantes rather than left/right banks. While Antwerp's part on the left bank is literally called "left bank" (Linkeroever).
It looks like the pictures that you would get out of MidJourney V1 or the early DALL-E, but I assume this can quickly improve in the next months.

Developers should be force-fed state machines (2011)
Alright, thanks.

To be clear I used the term "pixels" in describing the characteristics of the final images produced, which are a series of stacked 2D images comprised of pixels.

But, I don't think it matters what we label the units we're counting, as long as we count them accurately.

The paper you've referenced states:

> field-of-view = 12 × 12 × 24 mm and matrix size = 200 × 200 × 400 giving an image with (60μm)[cubed] isotropic voxels

The "64 million times better" article states a resolution of 5μm voxels (for one aspect of the imaging). The paper the article references, by contrast, states 15μm when specifically comparing to MRI, and claims 1,000x improvement.

Diambiguating what is meant by "resolution" is a common problem, as it can refer to either the length of the axes or the overall area when multiplying them.

Conservatively, I'm going with 12x better resolution with the new technique when comparing apples to apples, or, to hype it reasonably: 5 cubed vs 60 cubed = a difference of 1,728 times more voxels in the same given area.
I think this is due to the bilateral symmetry of most animals. But imagine being non-symmetric yourself (or the alien race being non-symmetric). The concepts of left and right seem to become much more communicable now.
Indeed. I haven't found concepts to be very good at generating error messages. But they are great for documentation and to get rid of SFINAE hacks for overloading.

The shorter template syntax is a bonus.

edit: concepts should also allow for better IDE tooling, for example proper completion inside template functions; although it is supposed to work, I didn't notice it firing yet in clangd.
I can't tell how this has actually improved upon existing options like Koa. This reeks of object oriented programming just for the sake of object oriented programming.
You could combine Cyc with an LLM using embeddings. First you select from the Cyc database which entries are relevant to your prompt. This may use low-level ai techniques, e.g., do a word embedding and look for the database entry close to the prompt. Then add the relevant data entries data you found as context to the prompt. The LLM will then have the additional information.

This is already used to generate answers to support questions. You look for relevant FAQs in a knowledge base then have the LLM write a specific answer with the additional knowledge base information.

I doubt Cyc would add much though. As I recall it was filled with trivial world information. Like you typically shave in the morning. People need to eat. Things that ChatGPT has absolutely no problem with.
I personally would like ads in Teams, so that when I am talking to my coworkers, and mention for example, virtual machines, a nice popup tells me which virtual reality headset just got released. If I mention a user opening a ticket, the popup tells me which attorney close to me can help me fight traffic violations.
Now an FPGA would be much cheaper. Or just run IcarOS desktop for X86.
Interesting that Yubico is choosing to go public via SPAC. It’s lower scrutiny, it became more popular over the last few years, and then lost some popularity because of high profile duds. Why go with a SPAC in that environment if the business is healthy and profitable?

> I can drop windows and switch to linux, but I don't think everyone could.

Honestly, most people could if they really wanted to. People come up with all kinds of reasons why they can't but ultimately it just boils down to not wanting to be inconvenienced.

Your other examples are a lot harder to do something about but that doesn't mean you can't do anything. Do you really need a smartphone at all? Third party data harvesting is bad and should be regulated out of existence but you can limit how much those companies affect you. Broadband does work a bit better in some parts of the world where the last mile cables are considered common infrastructure so go campaign or heck you could start your own ISP or support someone else that does. Can any single person fix all of this on their own? No. But you can resists wherver possible. You can choose better companies where they are available even if that means paying slightly more. You can get involved politically, especially locally. You can say no to services that are not really essential.

You CAN say no even if that has a cost.
Ask HN: Do you also see Google Cloud VPC peering dying from time to time?
In my setup I have an external vendor connected via Google Cloud VPC peering.
For reasons that neither me nor the vendor can explain I see connection issues from time to time for like 5 minutes. In this times the clients time out, but the database cluster on the vendor side looks all healthy and stable.

Am I the only one or do you also experience this?

Is there anything one could to do get this more stable or to at least already verify this assumption that Google Cloud VPC peering is the problem?

Thank you so much for your ideas!

Ask HN: How do incentives work in commercial OSS contributions?
I have been thinking about this in depth, specifically about the incentives involved (only wrt Commercial Open Source Software, with an Open Core).

For developers, the obvious incentive is to learn, practice, network and grow in the industry. For organisations, it helps get more eyeballs on what is being built, if positioned for the right audience, while also improving the quality of code.

The question in my mind though, is about how quality of code can be improved with the best talent contributing, while also incentivising the talent to contribute. A few companies in this space have come up with the concept of paid OSS bounties, but the quotes and rates being offered there are notoriously low. This obviously means that the best talent wouldn't be interested. So, how can the BEST developers be incentivised to contribute, so that companies can benefit, while also ensuring that nobody is left unhappy in this equation?
I mean, I agree. But at this point I just didn't want to deal with sketchy providers any more, so $60 it is.
But be careful, because there are two configurations for lateral marks, called Region A and Region B, as defined by IALA.

"That line there at the end is the game. Self-driving cars are just worse trains, as evidenced by the time Musk had to actually attempt to deploy his vision, or lack thereof. These cars will require physically modifying the environment to make some sort of... let’s call it a “track." Had we spent those $100 billion dollars on a massive overhaul of American public transit, we could have already built the infrastructure we need to solve this crisis. Instead, we have made a few tech entrepreneurs very rich, and we are left with the same political problem as before."

This is a pretty succinct indictment of capitalism. I think it was good to grow out of feudalism/mercantilism and I think central planning was a failure, but the current problems are:

- bonkers inequality

- bonkers waste

Weirdly I think these problems are solved by taxation. It shouldn't have been possible to burn $100B on self-driving cars. Companies and billionaires aren't good at spending this kind of money, especially when we have so many humans in poverty and a looming climate change disaster.

In practice C++ Concepts don't do what you're suggesting.

The C++ 20 Standard Library provides numerous concepts which have a very different semantic requirement than the syntax they're checking. If you violate the syntactic requirement of course that'll earn you a compiler error, but if you violate the semantic requirements that's silently an ill-formed C++ program, it has no meaning whatsoever and might do absolutely anything if run.

If these were nominal, we could say, well, nobody should have deliberately implemented this inappropriate Concept, similar to an unsafe Rust trait, the act of implementation is a promise to others. But C++ Concepts aren't nominal and so there was no opportunity to do that and so in practice such deviations are likely very common despite the potentially drastic consequences.

Can't agree more, super majority is a dangerous situation if folks laughing at democracy take helm (like it or not, Trump was a perfect definition of it within western democracies, although dictators like putin run circles with big grin around such people). 4 years is plenty to do a lot of damage if actors at power are malevolent.

The problem of using Switzerland as a yardstick is that barely any population anywhere can match up maturity and morality of them, maybe some nordics. Give a glimpse of same freedom/responsibility to otherwise mature British folks and we have brexit.

US has many fine things running for it, but politics (and healthcare, education, criminality etc) definitely ain't it and should not be taken as inspiration. The whole us-vs-them mentality that such longterm bipartisan system brings is very limiting. What if I like low taxes, while also supporting abortions and legal soft drugs? Or any other mix that would be pretty schizophrenic in US.
