I've tried using OpenAPI a few times, it's been...lackluster... I probably won't use it again.

Here are my gripes:

1) For me one of the biggest selling points is client code gen (https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator). Basically it sucks, or at least it sucks in enough languages to spoil it. The value prop here is define the API once, code gen the client for Ruby, Python and Scala (or insert your languages here). Often there are a half dozen clients for each language, often they are simply broken (the generated code just straight up doesn't compile). Of the ones that do work, you get random PRs accepted that impose a completely different ideological approach to how the client works. It really seems like any PR is accepted with no overarching guidance.

2) JSONSchema is too limited. We use it for a lot of things, but it just makes some things incredibly hard. This is compounded by the seemingly limitless number of version or drafts of the spec. If your goal is interop, which it probably is if you are using JSON, you have to go our and research what the lower common denominator draft spec JSONSchema support is for the various languages you want to use and limit yourself to that (probably draft 4, or draft 7).

On the pros side:

It does make pretty docs - kinda wish it would just focus on this and in the process not be as strict, I think it would be a better project.

Met him once in college, I was in the Corps of Cadets at Virginia Tech, which is where Homer Hickam ended up as well. Very humble guy, at least in the few minutes I was around him.

Fun fact, while at VT he led the creation of the original Skipper cannon. He and a bunch of other cadets thought it was shameful that VT had no cannon and VMI would trot out this little deck gun ("it was really more like a mortar!" according to him) at football games and shoot it off. He amassed a bunch of brass uniform bits and approached a foundry in IIRC Radford about it. They laughed about how a cannon made of uniform brass would blow up, but traded them for gunmetal brass.

The first time they fired it was a salute for President Kennedy, but the assassination happened before they had time to drill a touch hole. They rounded up every ketchup squeeze bottle they could find, put the charge of powder in that, and taped a piece of fuse in the spout. The ketchup bottle assemblies were lit and slid down the barrel.

Years later, a bunch of drunk cadets on Skipper Crew blew the original up. They kept cramming charges down after misfires, I think they had three in there when it went. The explosion blew up the caisson and threw shrapel, some of which embedded in Slusher Tower and is supposedly still there. The pieces were gathered up, mostly reassembled, and at least when I was there resided in the Corps Museum.

Anyway, yeah, rockets!
Short-sighted is presumably what they want: pump and dump onto the public market so early investors and founders get their payday and ride off into the sunset on bags of money while "the market" eats the losses and the slow (or maybe fast and painful) demise carries on for the next 3-10 years.
You already described how to train it. It can't magically know what you are into without any input.
Bah humbug. The premise of this article is extremely shallow.

E.g. TextEdit.app (change default to plain text in settings) + saving text files to one particular directory with reasonable file names + regular maintenance (like twice a year) + Mac full text indexing/search works pretty well for me.

The thing is: After 6 months it's actually interesting to go through your old notes. The Finder preview makes it a matter of one keypress per file.
Those users might be worth 10x as much as the average user though.
Can’t really say I would continue to use and post on reddit without Apollo. Their own mobile experience is absolutely garbage, even when paying for premium.
Why is there for example anti-US sentiment in Russia? Because it's beneficial for its leader(s) to cultivate and magnify it.
1. Noted. (I don't think this is a strong effect and think it is outweighed by the fact that the full-time researchers know and understand more.)

2. I said "funded by" rather than "employed by". For instance, consider James Taylor of the Heartland Institute, mentioned above. He doesn't "work for the oil industry" in the sense of being on the payroll of an oil company. (So far as I know, anyway.) But the Heartland Institute, before it decided to stop disclosing its sources of funding, took quite a bit of money from ExxonMobil and at least some from the Koch Foundation. (Also Philip Morris, of course; before the Heartland Institute got into casting doubt on the harms of fossil fuels, it was into casting doubt on the harms of tobacco smoking.) Ross McKitrick is a senior fellow of the Fraser Institute (funded by, among others, the Koch Foundation and ExxonMobil) and is on the board of the Global Warming Policy Foundation, which claims not to take funding from people with connections to the energy industry but takes plenty from Donors Trust (an entity that exists, so far as I can tell, solely to "launder" donations between right-wing organizations so that e.g. the Koch Foundation can send money to the GWPF without the GWPF literally explicitly getting it from the Kochs) and other entities with substantial ties to the fossil fuel industry.

None of which, again, is literally "on the payroll of fossil fuel companies". If you find that that's enough to stop you being bothered by the connections, that's up to you; I am not quite so easily reassured.

3. I would be interested in details of this alleged falsification of the historical record. The graph looks to me exactly like what you get if you combine a steady increasing trend with seasonal oscillation (El Nino) and random noise. After a peak in the seasonal oscillation it looks like the warming has slowed for some years. Then it looks like it's going much faster than trend for some years. If you can look at the graph I pointed you at and say with a straight face that the people saying in ~2010 that "global warming has stopped" were anything like correct, then I'm really not sure what to say to you.

Anyway, I'm going to leave it here. I don't get the impression that further discussion is very likely to be fruitful.

I just wish they'd stop using map keys. Use arrays:

paths:
- name: "speakers"
requests:
- name: createSpeaker
method: post

This structure would have allowed adding request name to the schema without breaking everything.

This really goes for anyone building REST/JSON APIs. Please avoid dynamic keys; whatever you think the "primary key" is today, it may be different tomorrow. Clients can easily hash an array of objects into a map if they need it.
It might output a much more detailed image than a human-drawn sketch which could be less useful or more damaging than the vague sketch.

Imagine that a police officer is looking for someone matching the image but doesn't know that it's hallucinated from a vague description, they could let the real suspect go or incorrectly arrest someone who happens to look like the AI generated image but otherwise doesn't have any reason to be a suspect.

Police are already greatly overestimating the accuracy of their own facial recognition tools because they don't realize the limits of the technology, and this would just be worse.
$5 per month for Reddit is silly though. Expensiveness is based on the value/return of whatever you are buying.
Is the wording accurate here? This is essentially the only source besides the untranslated article and the machine translated version sounds confusing (whether it applies to what is created by AI or what can be consumed in training).
Very interesting, thanks for sharing your project. Magnetico is also integrated into Jackett I believe, which might be helpful to some people who use that
If you consider paying less an income, then all of our consumption culture would be income, as its all artificially boosted with cheap money.
I have had some luck doing exactly that, and not even as efficiently as you describe - If my question is limited enough that the discussion won't overwhelm the context window I've found I can just paste in big chunks of the docs wholesale like a 'zero shot.'
Understand that I'm not saying there is zero risk with getting a vasectomy. All surgery, no matter how minor, carries risk of something going very wrong.

I'm saying that it appears to me that the risk is very small. Whether or not it's small enough to be under your threshold of acceptable risk is an individual matter. I am not saying that people who decide it's too risky are being foolish. That's a personal decision that there is no objective right or wrong answer to.
I really like nbdev, and the entire paradigm it encourages. I wish the onboarding was slightly smoother (a slick interactive tutorial type thing in vscode would do it a world of good) but it's now my default project base when I'm working on personal projects.
They can see the writing on the wall. The open source LLM space is improving rapidly.
Lots of 3rd party Reddit apps are going down as well. RIF is a great android app for example. It is Reddit for me and I'm not going to install the official app. I'll go away rather than be stuffed in their Clockwork Orange media chair.
Transparent attempt at shutting down clients that don’t show their ads. When Apollo stops working, I stop using Reddit. Their official app is garbage. Their website is garbage. Good riddance probably, I spend way too much time on it anyway. I even use the iOS Apollo app on my Mac because I like it so much, even if the experience isn’t perfect it’s still loads better than the official one.
Tips, On how to rise funds for an idea?
I'm currently in the processing of brining my idea to life, (Edtech) Start-up.

Any tips on how to rise funds, and also get people to work with you on your project, and what to avoid??

I know anybody can come up with a cool idea, and call it a start-up, but what matters is executing your idea, and bringing it to life.

I'm currently in the process of rising funds for my start-up, and looking for people who would collaborate, and hope on board with Me, on this Project.

I believe that Edtech software, has a lot of potential to improve the educational system.

I don't think so, I think the people who control superhuman game playing AI are still the most important in that scenario.

This line of thinking is quite ridiculous. Superior general intelligence will not be "controlled."
I’m taking a different approach to disclosing UFOs
If they did come out and say “ yeah we’ve known for a while” you have to realize that the world economy would crash.

Eventually there would be
Instant transportation for everyone and
Free energy for everyone

That is why disclosure will never happen until the powers that be all die off or something unimaginable happens.

My two cents.
I actually liked it, but my daughters immediate reaction was “This is so annoying” (but in all caps).

Meanwhile, I find typing anything on my phone very annoying.
Ugh, or try having a mostly common response with just a slight mutation (eg the data is array of Company rather than Contact). Verbose for what could be a "mixing" or "sub-class" or something.

> Discord seems the most likely

Reddit is about discovering content. How would you discover anything on Discord? Is there a trending list to see the top messages? Is there a way to list Discord communities so you can discover ones matching your interest?

I'm at a lost to how the two are similar in any way except for the "young generations" use them both.
Discord already has forums.

> allowing users to pay to use their own client

On the user side you need to:

- pay the service a recurring fee

- pay the client probably a recurring fee (x2 or x3 if you use multiple clients on different platform)

- mix and match the above and manage when it falls out of sync

It's totally possible, but how many users are willing to go that route ? Weather apps could be an example of that with the pluggable data sources, but that's to me a crazy small niche.

> 1A: a series arrangement of batteries at a civilized 48V

And here I am mad that home-storage server rack batteries are all 48V it seems, but for the same reasons (huge 400+ amp cables required to get decent wattages). When each car charger can do ~14.4kw you need a lot of fat cables running to battery banks
Public trackers have the advantage that they often don't even require accounts. If a private site ever gets raided, they'll have a ton of records like everything you've ever seeded, every IP you've used, the email address you signed up with, anything in your profile or comments that could be used to identify you etc. Way more risky than accessing a public website where all they ever see is a random IP address that viewed a page or made a search. If magnet links are available the site won't even have a record of what you actually downloaded.
It is about spam. There are actually many flavors of spam and they each need their own spam detector. For example parked domain spam vs. adult content spam vs. copycat site spam vs. content-farm spam vs. news spam.

This is about news spam. The referenced organizations are evaluating a supposed news site's process on how they go about making news ("journalistic standards") and in particular what we care about is whether there really is any process/standard at all. That is, we're only looking for the very few sites that everyone agrees has no news process and is just a site purporting to be a news site but isn't in reality. From the page: "a well-documented history of a site’s extremely low journalistic standards, correlated with: routinely using spam or clickbait to artificially inflate traffic, consistently publishing stories without citing sources, censoring stories due to operating with very limited press freedom, and misleading readers about who owns, funds, and authors stories for the site." Spamming search engines to game rankings is the primary criteria here.

However, we note that "Many sites may occasionally do one or more of these things, but we take action very rarely, only in the most extreme cases." We're talking tiny amounts of domains here because "we must see at least three of these organizations independently assess a site as having extremely low journalistic standards and also see that none of these organizations have assessed the same site as having even somewhat robust journalistic standards." That means if the site has any pulse of a real news site then it doesn't get counted as spam.

And it also says for these spam sites: "We trust that users can find the right information for themselves, so even in these rare cases we do not remove these sites from our search results page. Additionally, impacted sites are not moved so far down in the results that they are effectively removed."
It’s explicit in the responses you should expect for a given request, versus what you should expect. For example if the specification defined that a 404 is a valid use case then null or empty list is not considered an exception, but if it isn’t defined in the spec and you receive a 404 unexpectedly, then you can treat it as an exception rather than a valid response.

Western Europe has something called income equality, you should try it some time. Or well, more or it.

A cashier in Sweden earns a very liveable wage, quite close to the average wage, while a programmer earns maybe 75% more than that, if not twice as much. That's already a significant difference. I'm a student and get 1200€ a month (not only is university free, we also get paid to study). With this, I have my own apartment with my own kitchen and all and am still able to save 500 a month. When I start working and get an average salary (the starting salary for programmers is about the same as the average salary for the entire population), I will spend a bit more, but still probably have 1-1.5k€ left every month. That is a lot. Then after some years, that would increase by a thousand or so. Why should I expect more money than that? I don't deserve more than that.

Housing is expensive here too, but not nearly as bad as in the US, so we simply don't need as high salaries. In Sweden, things like preschools are also heavily subsidized and university completely free, which is beneficial if you have children.
This is sort of just the cycle of social media though. Facebook has the same stigma, it's unavoidable as the first wave ages.
The problem is letting this be a step that directs our attention in the first place:

> platform X published this so it must be good

It's a root-of-trust scheme, and those create high value targets which fail to corruption. Better would be:

> human Y cited this, it's about Z, and you've configured Y to be trusted in domain Z

Webs of trust require maintenance, which isn't convenient, but if roots of trust continue to degrade in trustworthiness, then that maintenance will eventually be a price worth paying.
No, that is a document ID and changes with each reissuance.

Germany has had a constitutional restriction in place explicitly prohibiting an SSN equivalent.

These days, the tax ID can supposedly be used for that purpose, but I haven’t seen much use of that yet.
Why would they mind you asking?
Yes, get some limited funding to build out the infrastructure. We can build a platform that is better for the users and that will get them all to come. We will make it modern and very easy for third parties to help build on top of it this will increase value and uptake.

We will need to pay for servers and dev time so maybe we can allow our users to donate to upkeep. Maybe call it new service platinum. Unfortunately, most people don't pay so maybe we can have a limited number of non-intrusive ads on the site. Well now people with equity want some money back so we need to figure out how to make some more money. These third party apps aren't showing our ads, so lots of our power users use these third party apps and lots of companies are leveraging our service to make lots of money. The obvious answer is to get some money back from the api users.

Most modern CPUs (really SOCs) have an integrated GPU built in, which isn't half bad. Heck, the GPU often takes significantly up more space on the silicon die than the CPU does.
> I doubt Pat Gelsinger does either

Maybe he should start caring* otherwise he risk running Intel completely into the ground? After all Apple was one of their largest clients until recently. Then a "lifestyle company" managed to somehow design better CPUs than Intel despite that just being an afterthought for them (since apparently Apple only focuses on the "lifestyle" stuff..).

I find it so fascinating the people get really obsessed by Apple (both in a negative and a positive way).

> I don't really care :)

Well a string of your comments would imply that you could actually care less about Apple.

*(I'm pretty sure he does in non imaginary reality )
I think I worded this poorly. What he said was that a lot of people say they want open-source models but they underestimate how hard it is to serve them well. So he wondered how much real benefit would come from open-sourcing them.

I think this is reasonable. Giving researchers access is great but for most small companies they're likely better off having a service provider manage inference for them rather than navigate the infra challenge.
You could use a mechanical 60 to 50Hz converter. Basically a motor connected to a generator. They tend to be very expensive but maybe there are options.

If I were making something for this problem I would make an AC-DC-AC converter with a PLL to divide the 60Hz input frequency to 50Hz to control the inverter.
