Mesa was really a great language that was really only missing first class support for Object rather than the way it was takes on which made star a closed system. It had to do with the ‘trait’ system and the static analysis that had to be done to determine the optimal layout or class objects. It was also overly complex because of multiple inheritance. The layout was important because object size directly related to filed document sizes because the filled document was just a relocatable memory mapped image! Basically a filed heap.

Star was pretty much rewritten latter to open it up using the Basic Workstation Software although the document editor itself still used the trait system. But even then the one feature that ‘required’ multiple inheritance was rewritten to not require it (it was the tables feature).
This seems like an unreasonably difficult project. If you're already aware that reviews on, e.g. Yelp and Amazon are difficult to police and discern the authentic ones, wait until you have positive and negative reports on literally your global state-level threat actors in action. You will be shut down in any less-than-free nation, and you will be under attack by astroturfing and misinformation campaigns like you wouldn't believe.

Now how would you defend against that sort of thing and build a trustworthy database, when your very premise depends entirely on verbal descriptions and hearsay claims with no evidence available or required?
>why would generative AI output (possibly including inpainting or outpainting) be fundamentally different?

Because copyright requires human authorship. You choosing to apply filters may rise to the level of being able to copyright those changes but will never affect the copyright status of the underlying image.

Getting an AI that cannot create copyrightable changes to make changes like in painting or out painting just creates another uncopyrightable public domain image because there are no human authors.

If you got an a neural network to choose and apply the previous transformations that too is not copyrightable. Copyright requires a human author.
I haven't finished the text, but it's a bad write up.

The author tries to make it impressive, and for that brings unneeded speculations.

> Failing to applaud a speech by Joseph Stalin could get a person arrested. So could listening to bootlegged copy of the Beatles.

The Beatles were published in USSR officially, as well as many other western artists. At least in late USSR. I still have many those vinyl discs. In earlier years, when my father was young, he and his friends had all rock records: Beatles, Creedence, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd, everything. Without any problems.

Stalin and the Beatles are two different ages.
Also, life in USSR was not always the same during its existence.

> That fact drove Soviet policy toward time off..

No evidence is given, what driven the policy. That's just a speculation.

> As the country industrialized, it became evident workers needed time away from the job if they were to remain productive when they were on it.

What? That had always been evident. Rest and free time was a theme of socialist movements all over the world long before the October Revolution.

> Following this train of thought, hardliners feared...

I always love when journalists have telepathic abilities. Not only they know what people do, but also what they think and feel.

> They also believed that, once the science of work systems had been perfected, workers would no longer need rest, rendering time off obsolete.

Really? A reference is needed. Vacation time was only growing with years. As far as I understand, the ideology was that with time the growing work efficiency will give more and more free time to workers.

In short, in this text true facts are mixed to produce some bullshit picture of the author's fantasy.

Fair enough, nothing wrong with prioritizing it for the sake of the kid - not for the sake of the school.
All right, then another story from the same trip. We're in Hurghada, a Red Sea resort popular with Russians. We go out shopping at night (it's hot, so lots of shopping at night). My wife is on the roll to get bunches of souvenirs for our nephews and everyone possible, so she's picking up I don't know, bangles, skirts, scarves, whatever. It's late, I am tired, so we skip the "I'll speak Russian" thing, so I just sit down and she's doing all the picking. The shopkeeper, who was sitting there watching some sort of local prayers on TV is very excited to have an American in his shop, and is effusive with "oh I am so glad you are an American, that's such a great country, with such great people, such generous people, not like those Russians, those stingy scummy Russians, who would take the candy out your baby's mouth, steal the last socks from the laundry, no, the Americans are rich and good looking, just like you clearly are so wonderful..." and he's going on and on. My wife is trying to not to laugh and tries to interject - "oh yeah, sure, of course, but my husband, he's Russian, so..." - the guy just doesn't listen and plows right over - "oh those evil Russians, always taking from us, always bargaining down the prices, we have families to feed, they'd take the last crumpled pound note from the ground, they'd won't give me enough for my wares to keep my grandmother fed", etc. etc. Well, my wife shrugs and lets him continue to dig, while I just keep quiet. Eventually she decides what we get, and the bargaining starts, which my cue to come in. Just a couple of minutes into bargaining the shopkeeper turns to my wife with wide eyes and affronted manner "Your husband! He doesn't bargain like American", to which she replies laughing "That's because he's Russian!"

Oh, we got the best deal of the trip right there.
Or even better: don't bring any devices with you, buy a phone at the airport when you land, buy a cheap laptop at an electronics store if you need one. Depending on the phone you plan to buy, you can also bring an hdmi adapter and a bluetooth portable keyboard and plug in your phone to your hotels tv if you need a full desktop.

Then when you leave, make sure to wipe your devices, and leave them in country.

For extra security, rent an EC2 instance (in the region you are traveling to), and use that with an SSH socks proxy or set up VPN software on it.
No, that’s the opposite of what I’m saying. Asking Hinton for his opinions on the societal impact of new AI tech is like asking the people who used to pump oil 20 years ago. It’s both out of date and not really relevant to their skill set even if it’s adjacent.
You're welcome.

> Really not a fan of getting trapped in closed stuff with forced firmware updates that take away features.

Ahh in that case avoid DJI Goggles 2 and go for Walksnail/Dominator HD ( https://pyrodrone.com/products/pre-order-fat-shark-dominator... ) Goggles and their video transmission system. DJI requires you to register and update your system before use iirc.

If you are interested in a more open source system, there is also HDZero. Goggles software, CAD Files are all out in the open. Image quality is so so, because it prioritizes fixed latency. You get 3ms glass to glass latency (Compared to 28-30ms in DJI/Walksnail). Comparison between Goggles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMOeIQ4VRX4
"Most advanced in the world" to only 70% of Americans is a failed system.

The point of this is to encourage atomization and discourage the formation of long term friendships, which could form a substrate for dissident networks.
This would give engineers an incentive to work on customer-facing works of software, and avoid working on internal tools.
Hey if they let people work less because the machines do it, they might figure out we're "dangerously" close to post-scarcity in a lot of fields. Gandhi figured that out a long time ago and talked about it, it's why the only machine he liked was the sewing machine.
European socialism isn't bad. But how does it work when you have such varied cultures like the US?

Outside of some existential threat like war, it doesn't seem at all possible for everyone in the US to start rowing in the same direction.
What was the process for reserving a vacation ? Were y'all able to select the time and location ? If so, what was the lead time like ?

Did you manage to form a relationship with someone outside of your initial social circle that persisted beyond the duration of the vacation ?

I recommend amending your offer with some specifics, so that we may better focus our questions on the particulars of time and place. Not to identify you (though that is a risk), but to draw context about the time (relationship with NATO, do computers exist) and perhaps about the specific locale (Okhotsk beaches are probably not like Astrakhan beaches).

Could these places be a source for gold? Were these cultures advanced enough to be mining and smelting gold?
Agree. I’m not a legal expert but I’m sure the court would take the side of an employee in such cases. Treating vacation as only a treat for the employee’s body that must rest is nonsense. When you take vacation to work as caregiver for your family member or to improve quality of your life with some home project, or even to dedicate time to your hobby that may be a physical challenge but offers you spiritual fulfillment is perfectly normal. Nobody shall be able to deny you that.
These days, the possibilities for hobbyist electronics are endless.

You can still use breadboards and discrete components to experiment with the basics, but now you've got the world of microcontrollers and FPGAs to explore, you can use open-source tools to design custom PCBs and have them manufactured inexpensively, you can 3D print housings or mechanical parts for your projects, you can build inexpensive IOT devices with ESP8266 modules, you can do things with robotics and drones that we could hardly imagine in the 80s, and it's all more affordable then ever (although stock shortages of certain items may still be a problem...)
Depends on your point of reference though; the lowest lying lowland is around 3600m "tall" when measured from average ocean floor depth rather than sea level, and a 2500m seamount might be sitting in a valley surrounded by the underwater edges of continental shelf that's at least twice as high as it. By our usual standards, they're -1000m tall :)

I think maybe they were too slow to act, but once they did this has been among the fastest rate hikes in history except for the early 1980s. they have a chart here: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/FEDFUNDS
You can just draw a red line matching the slope of the current hikes then move that red line to previous rate hike cycles
Exactly, if there's some court-room drama type "gotcha" that a knowledgable Justice could ask then it is the job of one side or the other to make that argument.
Ask HN: Which CS departments worldwide provide the best undergrad education?
If you have worked extensively with graduates from some CS school and think they were the best in aspects of problem solving, code quality, fundamental concepts, etc which school was it?

If you think your school provided you the best education why do you think so? Which courses or aspects of your undergrad make you say so.
It's straight-up depressing. Lotto machines staring you in the face when you go in (admittedly, I've only seen this in some). The weirdly sick lighting and color choices—I don't think they used to be like this, and IDK when they changed, or why, but I don't know of any other chains with this problem. The too-narrow-everything. The dirtiness of the floor and shelves. The disorder and clutter. The slow-moving beaten-looking workers. The patrons who, to a degree far greater than anywhere else, seem not to know how to exist in a public space without constantly being in the way.

I'd shop there often, because the prices are great, but I hate being in Wal Mart so much that I rarely go. (I've tried the pick-up order service, twice—nearly an hour to get my damn "ready" order, both times, never again)
Grades might not mean anything, but the knowledge is foundational and really starts to build from middle school onward.
I still remember when one could give tickets to soemone else, the ticket was the entry and the only screening was a metal detector. The sad thing is, the reinforced cockpit doors probably did more than any airport screening above that.

If we just had carbon taxes then it would be taken care of. Carbon taxes make so much sense form so many perspectives. it’s a shame it’s not a more popular idea.

There’s still some moral issues in my view from ridiculous consumption by rich people, but if taxed appropriately it would be better than it is now.

No offense, but you sound a little naive.

Your account was created somewhat recently, so I'm going to guess you're a young person and you're trying to keep a bright, optimistic attitude towards life :)

That's a good thing, but you should know there's all kinds of discrimination out there, and anyone, of any race, can be a victim.
The healthcare marketplace is hardly capitalist. It's deeply influenced by government policy and spending, as most healthcare expenditure is for the old, and it goes through Medicare.
I mean benchmarks place it right next to an m1, but what you are saying is that marketing trumps real numbers? Also by old i mean 3 years or so. Do you really believe that apple silicon is the absolute best thing out there?
There's also the very one-sided action to kill the post office entirely. Even with zero bribes, republicans want public services gutted and turned into private profits.
The naming conventions/protocols are fairly fixed at this point see [1], but this name absolutely fits the convention for this class of object

Quoting Wikipedia:

Other trans-Neptunian objects (such as 50000 Quaoar), including classical Kuiper belt objects, are given mythological or mythic names (not necessarily from Greek or Roman mythology), particularly those associated with creation.

Quote ends

From a physx article [2]

Quote begins

Consistent with the IAU conventions for naming non-resonant Kuiper Belt Objects after creator deities, the object was given the name Quaoar after the Tongva creator god. The Tongva people (otherwise known as the Mission Indians) are native to the area around Los Angeles, where the discovery of Quaoar was made.

Quote ends

I see no reason why names need to fit the sensibilities of English speakers

Crazy to think we know of only about 3000 pulsars!

Jesus what a cool fact : "Even light produced in the sun's core takes more than 100,000 years to reach the sun's surface." Because of its density.

Very interesting! I wonder how accurately we are able to detect gravitational waves today, and what kind of precision this would require?
This quote is the first thing I've seen that really makes me worried.

I don't think of ChatGPT as being "smart" at all, and comparing it to a human seems nonsensical to me. Yet here is a Turing award winning preeminent expert in the field telling me that AI smarter than humans is less (implied: much less) than 30 years away and quitting his job due to the ramifications.
Remember what USSR had a planned economy?

There was a system of distribution of pre-paid by the government (and maybe, not sure, there were a subsidized ones) and by big factories, ministries, which often had their own resorts/sanatoriums, vouchers[0] to rest/vacate/heal there.

Add: Sometimes they were a part of incentive and motivation for fulfilling a quota or finishing a project, sometimes as means to penalize someone ("You've been seen in the state unacceptable for a Soviet man, so you are out from the list for putyovka this year!") and of course as means to gamble or obtain something, trading it for things or services.

When you speak to someone with an 80 IQ do they introduce themselves by saying "Hello I have an 80 IQ, nice to meet you." So that, like the person I responded to above, you can compare their conversation skills to the ChatGPT4 conversation skills?
Why 99% is NOT Enough – Marble Machine X Accuracy Test (2022)
I've been plugging away at a multiplayer game server framework in Erlang, called Overworld: https://github.com/saltysystems/overworld

It integrates with Godot, with the ability to generate a client library that (un)marshalls data by way of Protobuf and communicates over ENet (UDP) or WebSocket (TCP).

Most recently, I've been working on a 2D space game with the framework, envisioned as a top-down EVE Online or Elite: Dangerous style of game.
