I think there’s some sort of revenue share. At the end of the day, all they do is a IAL-2 in-person or online validation (not sure if they do that in all cases) of your drivers license. They the link that to a biometric, which may or may not also be IAL-2.

Personally, I don’t get the point. I can pay for clear and avoid a line at Yankee stadium because they validated my drivers license and confirmed that I’m not a felon. If I am a felon, some dude looks at my backpack and I experience the same outcome.

I worked with a few of these things during the pandemic. They are all vulnerable to frauds with online validation. If you care about that, the best option is something like Idemia with in-person validation.
Agree. The Stable Diffusion Open RAIL M license: "You agree not to use the Model or Derivatives of the Model ... To defame, disparage or otherwise harass others"

Does "disparage" have a settled meaning in law? Is a parody disparaging?

If you are 'learning' is nothing but taking existing drawings and storing them in an electronic format (no matter that it's a super lossy a format, for example an MP3 made from a CD is still a copy no matter how low you set the low bitrate.) then no, no you are not. Now if you learning involves training a human brain on actual techniques to replicate how someone else did something, then yes, yes you are.
I am absolutely allowed to insult the person, who is overstepping his authority to physically detain me. In fact, I am morally allowed to do much more. There "real people" are attacking me, and the rights of everyone here. This is a defense, and a very mellow form of it.

there are normal border patrol agents who don't go on a powertrip, and follow the letter of the regulations. This is 90% of my travel. Then there are ones who see you chewing gum after 12 hour flight breath, think you are disrespecting them, and make your life hard. They get the offensive defense, because they initiated an attack.

Try this: fly 50 times a year, only answer questions you have to answer, not all questions asked, and see what happens 10% of the time on re-entry. If regulations were followed by Our Employees, nothing at all should happen. but it does. When it does, you can spend hours writing complaints no one reads, or you can make the offender's life as bad as you possibly can, with words and passive action.

What you are suggesting, is a slow quiet path to tyranny.

To me it doesn't feel technical at all--just superficial use of some domain verbiage with lots of degrees of freedom to duct tape it all together into a story. He very much reminds me of Eric Drexler and the nanotech doomerism of the 80s and 90s. Guy also had all the right verbiage and a small following of fairly educated people. But where is the grey goo?

If we need a counterargument to Yudkowsky do we also need one to Drexler?

>I'm still curious how it's possible to run such global illegal operations

Because it is not obviously illegal. A tracker just points to the content, not the content itself. That may seem meaningless, but then so are the arbitrary demands of copyright holders. They want to have their cake and eat it too. So the system works as intended.
Reddit is a SPA though right
>And yet unemployment is low and IT jobs are well paid

Naive at best, tone deaf at worst. Unemployment is low? Most jobs barely allow a person to live a decent life. AI will empower few, the rest will find themselves unable to create any value. All the "economic growth" will be the increasing profits and economic inequality.

When cars were created anyone could foresee the demand of people to manufacture them. Tell me, what jobs will AI create?
Unfortunately it's not a clearly written clause. It's derived from the dignity of humans and similar general terms. So the interpretation has changed over the decades. As long as the GDR existed it was clearly considered a property of a totalitarian state. Existed in the GDR (East) but unthinkable in the Federal Republic (West). Maybe 15 years after reunification (don't quote me on the exact number) a permament nationwide tax id was introduced. With the promise that its usage will forever be limited to tax offices and exchange with any other authorities is illegal. Another 15 years later that promise was "forgotten" and now the tax id can be exchanged with many authorities. It's relatively new and probably not widely used yet. But the dams have been opened.

We at Airbyte are happy users of the speakeasy platform. The CLI generator is easy to get started with and generate nice api clients that are constantly getting better.

My experience is that subs subdivide themselves at some size to become fractaly specialized. Like dnd 5 optimizers, dnd5 powergamers, dnd5 roleplayers, and when those get too big, dnd5 players that like to optimize wizards in the ravenloft setting while listening to lo-fi. There is an obligatory xkcd but I can't be bothered.
It would be great for someone to scrape Reddit and expose that information in a format compatible with the official API.

So if you call /get-comments/1234 it scrapes post 1234 and returns the JSON object exactly as the official API does.

Then third party clients can just point to this endpoint.

I would add to this that both note apps and read it later queues/apps are where ideas go to die. One of the most important mental shifts I had in the last 10 years was to adopt a "read it now or read it never" (RINORIN) model, which de facto meant that I had to also give up annotating my RIL queues with notes and tags (largely for the reasons in this post).

Now if something catches my attention, I'll read it immediately to the best of my ability, send some highlights directly from the browser (desktop and mobile) to my Notado archive (I'd say 90%+ of my tagging of whatever I save is automated with rules) and be done with it. Whenever I'm in the mood to look back through the highlights (and comments) I've saved, it's great to have that built-in quality+relevancy+interestingness filter that comes from RINORIN.

Life is much better now that I'm not living with that constant FOMO. Even if I could read, highlight and annotate everything (I can't, and neither can you, and that's ok), I would never be able to do something with _all_ of it (I can't, and neither can you, and that's ok).
What are these better platforms? Genuinely curious.

"AIs can ignore copyright" is the absolute ultimate in blank check for capital holders. Waiving copyright to solve the problem of systems favoring them is like deciding to jump because you're afraid of heights.

Copyright law has done a huge amount to reward creators -- I know even local-tier artists and musicians without the support of large capital who make a good chunk of their living through sales supported by it. The full benefits of copyright law don't always accrue to every creator, but the reason for that capital has stronger economic power when it comes to capturing distribution (often aided by consumers who prefer something like Spotify which is priced inexcusably low) which it can leverage into stronger negotiating power against creators, not because "copyright law is mostly bullshit."

When the system works (and it does for some people) creators are rewarded and can invest more time in doing things better. When it doesn't (ugh, streaming revenues), the situation could be improved, but as is generally the case not by just deciding to not bother with the whole thing.
>Let me give you the context behind this decision.

Japan is not anime. You can't just come up with some theories about how something may affect anime (which is debatable in any case) and then claim it is therefore the context behind Japan's policies. It's interesting that you criticize GP for thinking policy making is "some binary battle between 'billionaires and commoners'" and then explain that it's actually about Genshin Impact.
There's literally not a single person unaware of the downsides; the only benefit is to the politician signaling his/her bona fides.
Reddit is going public this year and needs to pump revenue numbers up while they are preparing the filing so that the equity holders get a good multiple from the underwriter.

After that, the activist investors which will certainly look for more margins will demand reddit reduce services and increase revenue irrespective of what that does to the services, so long as the relative cost/benefit is beneficial to quarterly returns.
If you search "Superman Logo" you find actual copies of the Superman logo which are served from Google's cache.

If you ask a VFX artist to create the "Superman Logo" with Photoshop they'll do an excellent job.

The first one isn't copyright violation because it is fair use. The second maybe if it is redistributed but we don't ban the use of photoshop by artists because they can choose to reproduce copyright things with it.
I think this climate change analogy is interesting, but maybe not in the way they meant.

The thing I think is interesting is the trajectory of the 'skeptics' or 'deniers'.

'Climate change skeptic' used to mean they didn't think a systematic change in climate was happening. Then 'climate change skeptic' shifted to mean that of course a systematic change in climate is happening but it's not due to people. Now 'climate change skeptic' means something more like of course people have caused a systematic change in climate but the woke liberals are trying to use it as a hook to force me to change my way of life and adopt their woke policies of eating bugs and sleeping in pods and make my children change their genders.

'LLM skeptic' is following an interestingly similar path. You can see skeptics like Gary Marcus in particular following the path. Originally 'LLM skeptic' meant that these non-mechanistic non-symbolic word predictors were stochastic parrots or blurry jpegs of the web with not even a theoretical prospect of performing anything like reason or approaching the realm of human cognition. Now 'LLM skeptic' means something more like we shouldn't let these dangerous, unreliable, deceptive, and uninterpretable algorithms become certified as lawyers or doctors and we shouldn't let them hold judicial or political offices.
I own an IT company in a town (Yeovil, UK) on an acre plot with a roughly four acre plot next door. We have a fair few busy roads adjoining our place - A30 and A37.

I have deployed Home Assistant on a laptop with a fair few dongles (Zwave/Zigbee etc) but its built in Bluetooth has noticed loads of toothbrushes - Oral B. I also see lots of some sort of plant auto water thingies and loads of lights.

Our office is next to a roundabout that sees at least 30,000 cars a day on one side. I've turned off the car integrations and several others because HA went a bit mad.

I see a lot of data that I don't want to without trying and it gets in the way. I do encourage people to stop leaking.
Wow, great to see boingboing is still around.

Anyway, based on some research, it looks like the person takes pictures from helicopter tour around the premise.
And I think 48VDC is the highest convenient voltage you get before exceeding ELV. There are a lot of surplus telecom and server power supplies that gives 48V at decent current. Above that there is a real risk of electrical injury, at least according to regulations.

I am a cybersecurity noob but, while the impact of this attack is high this is the eye of the needle that the attack must pass through?

I would guess, it is simply wrong to assume, market actors would engage in first order thinking only. Of course they will frequently see mutual understandings as the best course of action and take obvious psychological dynamics into account?

Here, they see "justified by circumstances"-acceptance of price hikes and act accordingly. Holding back on such a price hike would actually hurt your bottom line, as people do not switch brands so easily in real life.
I am not an electrical engineer and stand to be corrected:

Commercial inverters for a LiFePO4, gel and lead acid batteries types usually include a micro-controller to monitor and manage the battery's state of charge. These micro-controllers usually employ a multi-stage charging algorithm to derate and prevent the battery from overcharging (which may lead to its eventual destruction).

I recently installed a cheap Chinese MUST 1000V hybrid sine-wave inverter with a relatively expensive LiFePO4 battery. Has anyone had success communicating with the RS-232 serial port to monitor this brand of inverter?

I am terribly worried that there is a bug in the implementation of the charging algorithm; the officially supported desktop monitoring app is only supported on Windows...
Depends on the training. Copilot can output training code verbatim. And even if not an exact reproduction, using a small training set could often produce insufficiently transformative work that could still be legally considered a derived work. (IANAL)
Do they define "training"? Surely if I train for 1 billion epochs on a single book.... that's copyright infringement.
Don't know to be honest. I assume new reddit is while old reddit isn't. Truth is the job is even easier in case of an SPA: you just need to use whatever internal APIs they built for themselves. Can't add idiotic restrictions to that without affecting the normal web service.

The difference is that the copy is authorized, unless the work is being pirated.

Don't let the name fool you, inflation is not about prices increasing per se. It's about your dollar having less value.

In response to Covid The Fed "goosed" the economy by "printing" a ridiculous amount of new dollars. That obviously devalued what was already in circulation.

Devalue === worth less
Worth less === buys less

Voila...inflation.

The reason you / we don't understand is because no one - gov, Fed or media - wants the come clean on the impact of The Fed's Covid related decisions.

I disagree. A lot of other people are pointing out the discoverability problem (which I agree is an issue), but I think the medium just isn't comparable.

Chat is ephemeral and it there's a certain amount of participation expected, where as Reddit content strikes a nice balance of changing frequently, but not instantaneous and, for most users, it's a passive activity. To put it another way, most people aren't doom-scrolling on a discord server.
