Why isn't Blockchain tech used to solve the problem of domain name resolution? Why aren't these solutions getting any traction? Tokens would serve as a built-in payment system for purchasing domain names and also as a spam prevention mechanism, it's decentralized and therefore wouldn't rely on any centralized authority, the incentives for running nodes would be built in... They are highly replicated and can replicate without limit which means it would be able to scale to support unlimited reads (which is what matters most when it comes to a DNS system). It would be distributed geographically and therefore could provide the fastest lookup times possible as you could run your own node to get the lowest lookups for existing domains... Also, ownership of domains would be cryptographically secured. WTF is this not getting any traction? Why aren't browser makers adopting this or enabling Blockchain-based domain lookups by default? There are solutions like Unlimited domains but they're not actually being rolled out...
Seems somewhat paradoxical, reading on the website of a closed source software vendor about open source hardware.

Open source lives by participation, which doesn't happen if you have to pay for an Altium license as an entry fee. And even if free, proprietary vendors can always hold your design hostage.

Imho, this needs to be done in KiCAD.

Fastbuild https://www.fastbuild.org/docs/home.html is the free distributed compilation system many game companies use. The combination of automatic unity builds (simply appending many .cpp source files together into very large combined files), caching and distributed compilation together gives you extremely fast C++ builds.

Also supports creating project files that are compatible with XCode and Visual Studio so you can just build from those IDE's and a pretty flexible dependency based build file format that can accomodate any kind of dependency.
Yep theme park fandom is massive. For places like Epcot especially as it holds a lot of nostalgic value to many.

Surprisingly a lot of the fandom isn't anything to do with IP like shoehorning in Disney characters, but more about atmosphere and architecture. Myself like many others find places like Epcot a very relaxing place that does wonders for mental health. Being able to pop in and sit with a drink and chat with friends and just soaking up the atmoshere is very cathartic.
Lovely how the article from Wired never mentions how the bios option to disable this is called. At least they linked the original article, but even that only mentions its name way down below near the end of the article, after telling you in 15 ways how the sky is falling.
Mainly for back of the napkin calculations to evaluate feasibility of solutions/architectures/algorithms, and to evaluate whether to invest in an opportunity.

Granted, they could all be replaced by computer evaluation, but when someone shows me some numbers and wants a quick opinion, I've found that if I ask if I can take a moment to type it into a device people are more likely to go "that sounds complicated, never mind" but if I only jot down some numbers on paper they are more likely to put weight on the conclusion.
> Seems weird a newer phone in the basically same line would downgrade to three.

You have data scientists busy analyzing telemetry all the time. It's conceivable someone figured "the data shows" most people don't even use 3 fingers at a time, much less 5+, so why not simplify the screen driver / hardware to save costs (or trade it for some improvement elsewhere)...

Newer phones are more optimized than older ones. On the market, optimized doesn't mean better.
My understanding is that the image data used a decoder-only stage, i.e. mapping images to tokens, basically taking the image textual description instead of the actual pixels so it can't "see" but can understand the "narration of an image"

Adding up these developments (all of which occurred during the span of one week), I don’t see how huge, slow, general-purpose models maintain their relevance in the long term, when a lean, domain-focused model is right there within reach of every application developer.
FWIW a lot of helecopters fly over WDW these days. Having just returned last week I'd see a good 5 or so helecopters flying over and around the parks every day. It is a tad annoying at this point but given there are no restrictions on doing so there's little Disney could do to stop it.
> If you have to already have access to the copyrighted images to find them in the model, the argument seems weak.

That makes no sense. The copyright holder has access to their own inventions, of course. That's the standard in any copyright claim.

> A sufficiently advanced model could, in theory, generate any image. You could then, again in theory, find an embedding for any image. Does said model then infringe on all copyrighted images?

Without the slightest doubt. You're already violating copyright if you sing a faulty and badly played version of a pop song in a street cafe without paying a license fee.

> you could extract any image in the binary expansion of Pi and share it by "just" providing an index and length

The method of storing the information is pretty much irrelevant to copyright. Your link argument has been tried by pirates and it's not working too well, although it depends on the country and legislation.
All major cloud providers (AWS, Azure and GCP) provide instance-types that support AVX512-VBMI2. Iguana targets large amounts of that are decompressed often and speed is of the essence. Those are typical server scenarios, so the AVX512-VBMI2 requirement isn't really an issue in common-case scenarios.

My first exposure to functional concepts was, doh, mathematics! Functions are maps, not procedures that flip bits. There recursive definitions and such. Inductive proofs. The activity of doing derivation: you leave the old formula as is, and produce a new one from it by applying rules, which you should recognize as a kind of function.

Some of this stuff, you play with in "Blub" imperative languages. If you write a recursive factorial or fibonacci in Pascal, that's functional programming. Just not with higher order functions.

The C preprocessor is an example of functional calculation. (Though macros can be undefined and redefined, mainly they are just defined and called, and perform substitutions without clobbering anything.)

Unix pipelines : don't clobber anything other than the file being created or replaced at the end.

Parsing a grammar with Yacc and building a tree: basically functional. The imperative bits going on are hidden under the hood. $$ = make_node($1, $3) is an assignment, but it's boiler-plate; you don't think of it as assignment, but yielding the semantic value of the rule, which is constructed from the pattern-matched $1 and $3 pieces.

All those things teach you that it's useful and good to calculate a new value from an existing one, while leaving the original alone.

There is a lot of functional programming in the middle of imperative programming. E.g. constructing a balanced binary tree might not be functional (it can be, but often isn't in Algol-like languages), the queries on that structure are conductive to functional programming. Queries don't mutate the structure, and if recursion is used, don't mutate traversal variables.

A binary search of an array can be coded functionally via recursion.

Here is a functional version of strchr in C:

const char *strchr(const char *str, int ch)
{
return (*str == 0) ? 0
: *str == ch ? str
: strchr(str + 1, ch);
}

Lisp was something that clicked almost instantly. I came to that armed with a lot of experience and understanding, and was well-versed in recursion, plus all around systems programming as an experienced developer. The idea that, say, a tree could be recursively defined as a null value, or else a node with two children, was nothing new. Or that a recursive function could search that.

I don't think it's expensive, once you've the software:
1- regularly pull the torrent IDs from the latest releases on most popular torrenting website
2- download and stream the movies
3- wait for German IPs to connect
4- filter out IPs behind a VPN
5- identify the IP provider
6- send the request, probably by Email
7- profit

Not sure how advanced the software, but I don't see much manual input needed, it must be actually very lucrative

Nothing against Germans but there is a lot of hypocrisy in their society:
- Energiewende vs. shutting down Nuclear Plants and turning on Coal
- Green cars vs. 300km/h on the Autobahn
- Go to a restaurant in a big German city, guys tell you they don't accept cards, then hand write the bill on a napkin (...) vs. Greece where restaurants are legally obliged to accept cards and if they don't, then you can just walk out without paying (!..) (all this since the EU driven by Germany bailed Greece out)
> the training data provides value.

Copyright law doesn't protect "any provided value". Fair use specifically allows content creators to use copyright.

This can be for the purposes of parody, it can also be for the purposes of "reaction videos" or "commentary". The original content creators are NOT compensated for the value they helped create in a "reaction video".

This is why I love Go. Go feels like a language that is boring on purpose - few magic short cuts, and few ways of misusing some special language feature. Just a lot of boring, regular code which is easy to refactor and maintain at scale (IMO).

I understand downgrading as thermal throtlling.
IANAL, but I think it comes down to your interpretation of section 4:

> You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you

> receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and

> appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;

> keep intact all notices stating that this License and any

> non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;

> keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all

> recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.

So by removing the copyright notice from "each copy" of the "convey"ed source code, I think you could argue they violated this.

But as others have argued, even if you don't believe that this section forbids it, the polite thing to do would be to either a) get permission to remove the copyright notices, or at the very least b) create a file (e.g. CONTRIBUTORS.md, or a section of the readme) and place the copyright information in there. Saying "Ooh, we don't like X's name at the top of the file, it's too ugly" without any attempt to maintain some acknowledgement might not be a violation, but certainly isn't within the spirit of the AGPL, the main point of which is to "(1) assert copyright on the software".

I doubt something the size of reddit would run properly on Python, but I think both mine and the commenter I replied to had the point that most sites on the internet WOULD run fine without all the bloatware and overengineering complexity. Very very few sites have the traffic that reddit does. Most websites belong to the long tail, and for those almost any tech stack would work - so why choose a needlessly complex one?
I think the main problem is the expiration dates. Like, why do they exist? I see no point in having a ticking bomb in your setup.
Absolutely. Or in case of a copyright claim, … It’s crucial to know where which piece of code came from and piecing it together from git history is going to be painful.
What I see (from reddit) as an US outsider is the people in US are already too polarized. It's either you are my friend or my enemy, no middle ground.

> Drawing a copy of a copyrighted picture from memory, and then distributing that copy, would certainly normally be copyright infringement.

In US law, there is a nuance between Copyright and Trademark.

> Drawing a copy of a copyrighted picture from memory, and then distributing that copy

Would not necessarily be copyright infringement (it depends on a judge). For example, why Taylor Swift is able to re-record her music (the copyright is owned by a recording studio), as is, and can distribute the new version as "Taylor's Version" because she owns the copyright on the new version.

> (A logo may not be enough of a creative work to be copyrightable, but I assume that's not what you're getting at).

A logo is actually MORE protectable, through Trademark. Trademark is significantly MORE protected than Copyright.

In your example, if someone draws from memory a logo, they actually own the copyright, but it is still Trademark infringement and the trademark owner will be protected.

Thanks for the ASA statement link.

Yes, obviously the whole notion of a hard threshold is a bit nonsensical to begin with, but as the ASA statement says "Pragmatic considerations often require binary, yes-no decisions". There doesn't seem any way around that. People face decisions like, shall we continue to fund this investigation? Yes/no. Should we recommend lifestyle changes to the public? Yes/no. It doesn't make sense to try and map a P value into a budget, for example. At some point you need a threshold (and likewise for effect size and other things). Of course at some level there is fuzzyness, which is why I said if a paper is mostly reporting 0.049 values then ... and I didn't specify what, exactly because the conclusion should be something like "fuzzily suspicious and should look closer".

So it's fine for the ASA to complain about statistical significance leading to "distortion of the scientific process", but their proposed alternative can be boiled down to doing more peer review, as most of the things they tell researchers to look at are things researchers will never conclude in the negative about their own results, like study design (because if they did they wouldn't have got to the point of calculating a P value to begin with).

Finally, I disagree when you say "That is false". Scientists aren't going to stop using statistical significance thresholds because they do need to make binary decisions at some point, and dropping the threshold they currently use by 10x would immediately yield major improvements in replicability and robustness.

Anyway, put P-hacking to one side if you dislike that discussion, it's fine. It's not actually the thing that bothers me the most when I read papers. A big gap between the prose summaries and what the data [analysis] actually shows is a much more common source of distortion, IMO.

I think the point here is about the procurement of the training data, in violation of copyright laws ("piracy"), rather than that the training itself is piracy.

The suspicion[0] is that OpenAI trained their models on a large text dump including libgen (in the so-called "books2").

If a person downloads a book from Library Genesis, they're a pirate; if OpenAI does it, so are they.

That goes against what most people advocate as reason for women to work.

I live between Germany and Portugal, where in both countries is similar to what you describe. It is perfectly possible to raise a large family with only the father having a salary.

Today most couples have the mindset of buying a house for hundreds of thousand euros, pay tens of thousands for a car and also afford vacation to Thailand or whatever frivolous location.

Choosing a more modest location to live, buying second-hand cars without debt, having the wife cooking and taking care of the children is already a huge difference. What is not measured if the happiness of the woman in watching her children grow, that is truly fantastic. Most media favor an "empowerment" rather than presenting as option a traditional lifestyle.

Took me decades to understand this and guide my own family towards a saner lifestyle away from frivolous consuming habits.
