I play piano, but I am not good in reading notes. So I wanted to record my reportoir, which I have hard time to learn from note sheets, or created from youtube piano tutorials (I use these tutorials as inspiration, not as exact source). I tried several tools for this purpose, but I wasn't satisfied with them. So I created PianoHub.

PianoHub is created with SvelteKit and hosted on Vercel. I use it mor my very amateur piano recordings, I hope that it could be useful also for someone else.
The data is that of "I have a person who likes monkey paws" and then they can sell that to the monkey paw conglomerate. Next thing you know you're getting monkey paws in the mail!

That law is at least an attempt to fix an existing problem. So this is like blaming someone who made a subpar raft for the flood that required the raft.

> This is asked all the time. Google "economy growth reddit" and you'll see a bunch of posts questioning why it's important.

This is a pretty awful way of looking anything up to be honest. Reddit is just a big echo chamber that will mindlessly parrot anything that is the common consensus for the particular subreddit.
Not true at all. The people who worked on the moon landing famously worked a gargantuan amount of overtime.

I have friends who do research - their primary motivation isnt pay. The private sector exploits their passion by paying mediocre wages while the CEOs of these companies rake in millions. This is demotivating to say the least.

An efficient system compared to the public sector it is not.
I specialize in 18th-century Scottish music and generally find that the hand-engraved copperplate printing from the 18th-century produces more readable music than modern editions. I also play stuff like Corelli sonatas (easy to read) from facsimiles and Playford tunes (17th century, woodblock printing) from facsimiles. The Playford is fine for me, but I'd understand it if people wanted to transcribe it.

I used to play with a Renaissance group that played ca. 1500 music (published by Petrucci himself!) and they transcribed it into urtexts, which I appreciated. Two big factors in that were a) using more comfortable clefs b) turning something written in parts into a score. It's helpful to see what the harmonic situation is, and playing off a score makes that much easier.
I don't do any of the things in your list, and it's completely normal not to. Some people like planning things, some like to feel productive so they come up with useless stuff to occupy them. Nobody has to do any of that if it doesn't help or if they don't want to.

Also, usually the corporate " practice self care" message means "we'll do nothing for you, and try and get you to blame yourself for any stress"
I think you’re overestimating the level of endurance ( google’s money) have on open source. Firstly Google as an Organization needs revenue to support go’s team expenses ( and I wouldn’t be surprised to them if they cut some cash because of OpenAI and MSC threat), open source teams especially in big corporations IMO have limits to resources dedicated especially if the project can’t be placed at the “platform level”, example take android source projects ideally I see no difference how both teams project their will in the direction on where the project will go but google must have a greater influence on android projects because they’re dependent on it seriously (basically 75% of revenue comes there), so what does google that depends on Go?, am pretty sure Go’s codebase hasn’t reached 7% or 10% at most, discontinue Go ?, fine they dedicate few team specific for their use case or just Rewrite it
Think of it as applying to a family member rather than yourself. Would you like your pet to eat well and drink enough water!

You're free to do what you want. Lemmy lived till his later 60s and Ozzy is even older. You can't do everything, but try and be kind to yourself, if you can.
I apologize for the double negative. What I meant is that hashing doesn't improve privacy because if you know the hash and the hashing function it's easy to build a hashmap of all the possible IPv4s (around 3.5B). Unless the hash uses some sort of expensive key derivation function, but that doesn't scale.
If you’re incapable of expressing why it’s related to status and confrontation, it sounds like you don’t really know why they are labeled that way.

I am being confrontational right now because you are spreading bullshit and I have little tolerance for that in online conversations. That doesn’t have any correlation with offering a solution to someone’s issue being “status and confrontation”.

Either provide some justification for why offering someone an advil for a headache when they really wanted you to just commiserate is “status and confrontation”, or just admit that it’s another bullshit social psychology label not based on any logical or scientific rigor.
Ask HN: How did you learn to 10 finger type?
Hey HN. I'm looking to develop my typing skill, but I've found breaking my "6 finger" habit difficult. Would love to know any tips or resources.

Currently on a Macbook Pro.
It still feels like these dialogues are really only something lawyers could think is a good solution to companies employing invasive/overbearing uses of customer data.

My gut feel is that most users don't understand what "tracking" really means and simply want to enjoy digital experiences without having to engage with the "what & how" that comes with modern platforms. My partner (and I reckon many other "normal" people) loves the ads on Instagram and enjoys the personalisation on YouTube & Netflix.

The current solution of "be transparent and it's okay" just forces decisions onto consumers that they do not want. The "good" solution outlined in this article (accept/reject) is a big yes or a big no – a green light for everything vs a red light for nothing.

There needs to be further regulation in this space that defines legal vs illegal uses of user data beyond the principals laid out in GDPR. The regulation should aim to define the "what & how", relieving the burden of choice from users and removing this "consent and it's okay" loophole for invasive use of data.
There's 6 legal basis under GDPR, but that's irrelevant for cookies (or anything that allows you to store or retrieve information on the user's device, really), because they're covered by the older ePrivacy directive. If a cookie is not “strictly necessary”, consent is required.

Why do price controls never work? The paragraph behind the sentence doesn't talk about it or i'm struggling to understand the relationship.
You haven't lived until you've tried to debug it.
The array isn't zero based. The line breaks have different characters for breaking the lines, and you get to guess which ones are doing it.

Certain characters are ok (ASKII) but when a Mac gets a nice ' into the field, all hell breaks loose. Things like "lesion at 9 o'clock" then break the system, as does Mr O'Leary. The hours spent chasing down how some failure happened are countless. Pity those working with HL7.
> The general public wants an AI that can role-play a character in a D&D game without pausing to go on a rant every five turns about how violence is bad and that it can't make "racist" comments about the Drow because they're black.

Gonna need a citation on this one. You think the general public is primarily concerned with D&D content generation?

Also your assertion that Open AI must be run by “gay Mormons” because they try to prevent offensive gay jokes shows that you can only imagine someone acting out of personal attachment and not, you know, preventing actual harm regardless of who it happens to.

Also don’t worry, there will be plenty of models for you to choose from in the future that will gladly spit out homophobic jokes. Your need for AI generated gay jokes will be met in the future, just not by big corporate models. Rest easy!

> For all practical intents and purposes, the finite resources available on this planet and in the universe are more than sufficient, though.

How can we know this is true? Like immediately, sure. But can we keep growing and extracting resources like we do for another thousand years? Ten thousand years?

Like we're already pushing the limit on arable land. It doesn't seem plausible we'll be able to somehow increase crop yields even times to sustain the sort of growth we're projecting. At that point, the entire planet's land area would need to be farmland, even if it is currently desert or mountains or whatever.
Ultimately this is just an orchestration tool for publishing HL7v2 messages. You have to write your own pathways and segments, or push preconfigured HL7v2 messages. Take a look at the dashboard, you'll see what I mean[1].

Fairly sure they built this to test their HL7v2 store[2]. Also presuming it hasn't been very active given that Google surprisingly shut down their Healthcare division (and probably restarted it somewhere)[3].

Memory leaks are annoying and, yes, you can get them in memory safe languages.

But they are way less severe than memory corruption. Memory unsafe languages are liable to undefined behaviour, which is actively dangerous, both in theory and practice.
Kept looking for LLM references in the 'what do you want to do' part and was surprised to not find any. Absolutely perfect place to put tool docs in the context and let users ask the LLM how to do what they want; bonus points for fine tuning the model on the docs and use scenarios.

Probably the latter.

Slightly differing UIs are not interesting enough for your brain to activate problem solving and learning. But they are different enough for you to get slightly confused in minor ways.

I think that’s why some people streamline their UIs as much as possible: vim/emacs/terminal everything, same bindings everywhere etc. all optimized for muscle memory and comfort.
DDG is my default search engine for a year, and I am not being idealistic, I feel that I am getting better more interesting results.

To make it short (my humble conclusion): Google is using too much UI space to fill with ads and too many websites hacked the SEO algorithm, creating bad quality information pages getting in the top results.

It depends on how easily the "simple agreement" can be circumvented and how it would fail to provide money in case the business is unsuccessful.

Even if a greedy optimist prefers equity to a salary, being paid later is worse than being paid sooner; not being a partner at the beginning is worse than having some authority; and being exposed to share-related shenanigans is worse than being owed a definite amount of money of certain value.
I enjoyed reading this write-up. Used this technique in the past and have seen similar improvements as they mentioned in this article. [1] This was pre the FCP, LCP, CLS metrics so it considers the onload timings. Would be interesting to know on which percentiles this increase is seen and if this is measured with real user metrics (RUM) or captured by a synthetic tool such as lighthouse or web page test.

I think it's fair to be concerned about a person running along a highway in the middle of a desert miles away from anything. I also lived in the middle of nowhere, and if you see someone walking along the highway they probably need help.
I hope DuckDuckGo has something similar to Search Console or Webmaster Tools.
Australia doesn't have a unified system. Across the ditch we don't either, but at least we have a patient identification system that allows the searching of different systems for an individual via the National health Index number (NHI).
The entire premise of my question is that data is kept private between the two parties (the website owner and the visitor). I don't see how this connects with that at all.

And how do you even get someone's mail address without an extensive internet-wide profile (which, again, isn't what the premise of my question was in the first place)?
This is no surprise, the tokenizer is constructed to minimize the encoded length of the training corpus, and most of that is in English or at least using the Latin alphabet.
I think Elon said something interesting about OpenAI in an interview he gave yesterday which I didn't perviously understand – as part of their deal with Microsoft Microsoft have right to all of OpenAI's model weights. This means at any time Microsoft has the right to take their models and cut off OpenAI's funding.
I would seem OpenAI now have very little autonomy as a company. Since any IP they currently have can be taken by Microsoft there's very little incentive for other companies to invest. And since OpenAI isn't profitable they are now 100% dependent on Microsoft to continue operating.

I think we may as well consider OpenAI a Microsoft acquisition since this appears to more accurately describe the relationship here.

Perhaps Sam Altman was just too stupid to understand this, but I suspect that isn't the case. It seems he probably knew OpenAI would effectively become a Microsoft research project as part of their deal, and therefore we should probably assume that they will operate with for-profit incentives – and with those of Microsoft's more specifically.

I guess what I'm saying is that this doesn't surprise me, and I'd expect more of this to come. https://sheboyganscanner.net/sheb-scanner/
I did. You should do it too, while also trying to grasp it. I said "essentially indentured servants", which is what most of the American workforce is (not just you and your couple of privileged friends).

They earn just enough money to cover their very very basic needs. That's essentially an indentured servant.

If you don't like it, work to change it. Don't hide from the fact trying to redefine it.
There's a slight difference here. In the Hammer case what's happening is the government is negotiating the totality of a deal, so yes there are expensive hammers, but there's cheap other stuff. The hammer isn't important, the total contract is.

In the hospital case something much more nefarious is happening - the hospital negotiates discounts with the insurance companies, but in order to make money they inflate their costs in the first place so they can negotiate back down to a reasonable number with the insurance companies. Someone in an insurance company somewhere gets a good pat on the back for getting a great discount. But on the back side of this now if you don't have insurance the hospital is going to hit you with ridiculous costs forcing you to buy insurance. It's collusion between the hospital and the insurance company to screw the consumer.
A wild strawman appears! But seriously, it isn't 3rd party ads that GP was complaining about.

That said, if the OS is aggressively pushing recommendations for their first party news, videos, and search engine, and every one of those things shows 3rd party ads, I don't think that single step removed absolves win 11.

It absolutely can. For instance, polling via newsletter is rather effective.

If it contains any personally identifiable information that is not required by law, then yes. Yes it fucking is.

the consent charade is a constant reminder that the modern digital economy is based on large scale deceit and is therefore fundamentally unstable.

yet nothing is done about it, as if it is not important, as if digital tech is not the main, if not only, "driver of future economic growth".

you cannot build a stable economy (well at least not of a democratic, free market kind) relying on complete ignorance and regulatory capture.

anybody who has leverage on the matter and is not doing something about it is complicit in a gigantic, generational level misallocation of resources that will eventually have to be written of.
Probably the software book that has influenced my practice the most. Fantastic writing, and not too long either.
I feel this is the most logical explanation too. Humans are ridiculously fickle.
It's practice. And the most difficult part is the initial few days, where you get frustrated that you can look and type faster than you can touch type. The key is to push through that phase and keep practicing without reverting back to the old habits.

In terms of software I used Tipp10 - https://www.tipp10.com/en/download/. Nowadays I have found https://www.keybr.com/ as an excellent resource.

At the end of the day, you will need to keep practicing to get better at it. A little consistency will get you far! Don't spend money on fancy hardware until you get to a point where you feel that the hardware is slowing you down. (80wpm or more)

> Being inaccurate isn't always problem if the costs outweigh the benefits of being accurate.

You're speaking of public money; the cost of inaccuracy is much greater than the amount of the inaccuracy itself, it erodes public trust.

Also, the difference between $15 and $600 can't be described as an "inaccuracy".
>i do not recommend mesh. mesh networks halve your bandwidth. if you can just use an ethernet cable to the next access point. the good news is that all their APs use power-over-ethernet, so you just need an ethernet cable, no sockets.

Mesh dropping bandwidth is less of an issue these days as we have much more bandwidth and you are unlikely to run the largest channel width anyway, then newer solutions support mu-mimo with separate backhaul.
You can still get network errors with that, no? I'm pretty sure I've seen some of those anyway.
How about tracking the users pulse while he reads your website via his smartwatch. Wouldn't that give you even more insights into the emotional journey?

My point is: You have to draw the line somewhere (and I think the GDPR line is very reasonable). If you are a business relying on having a perfect website, you can use other means like UX labs.
Stop spreading this nonsense.

Or maybe blame it on Al-Ghazali, another classical story.
'Up to a fifth of those cuts will come in customer services as staff are replaced by technologies including artificial intelligence.'

BT could easily lose all of those staff and it would make no difference at all. BT are one of those service providers where everything is fine until you have a problem and then you really do have a problem.
Isn’t your extension cord the epitome of an identity function?

Theirs is exactly that.

You could spare it if you really want and plug your usbc directly in the recessed port, but the function is not mere identity, it actually provides an extension (as in: extends the reach of the usb port) function as well.

"We kill people based on metadata" -- former NSA chief Michael Hayden
These days, 99% of everything is marketing, trying to get you to buy more stuff / watch more videos / whatever. Hating self-care is an understandable reaction to that, but (unless you're "a natural" at self-care, with ~zero potential health issues) not an optimal reaction.

It's kinda like managing a lone bare-metal server - you need to find a low-overhead routine that keeps it reliably working. Not load it down with 5 different monitoring systems and the the fanciest server management software you can find and log pruning scripts running every 5 minutes and ...
It's also worth mentioning that it's usually illegal for pedestrians to be on the freeway (aka highway for the rest of the world), emergencies aside.

The police pulling you over in that scenario has as much to do with enforcing the law as there is to do with seeing if you need help.

The problem is that there are good and bad cookies:

- session cookie: good

- tracking cookie: bad

I remember a time when browsers would ask you for every website if you wanted to keep the cookies and because most cookies were good cookies, everybody agreed to accept them. Later came the ad industry and started to introduce bad cookies.
