One example that comes to mind on what I see as a key difference between the two:

Let us consider, say, ants and bears, they're obviously intelligent and reasonably well adapted to their environment (especially ants).

If they could somehow consciously realize that they exist both as an individual and as a species and would feel threatened by some common enemy, maybe humans, they could then band together as a species against the common foe. If that happened, they would cause way more trouble that they usually do.

Luckily for us, these types of thoughts never enter their minds. Even if a bear goes rogue and starts attacking people, they never reach a point where they band together and go on a crime spree or decide to take over the world. Somehow, we are able to imagine those possibilities, but they cannot and it isn't because they aren't intelligent enough. Something else is missing.

In other words, if the animals had the minds of humans, we can only imagine what the world would come to. Probably an us vs them death-match.
Probably. You can even hire people to guard them, feed them, try to bring them back to society slowly.
I used to think I liked a lot of art that on deeper reflection I’ve realized isn’t good. It was just me experiencing social psychology.

This is such a common human phenomenon that there’s a fable about it: the emperor who wears no clothes.

People will mercilessly ridicule the kid who says the emperor is naked. There is a bit of that type of ridicule in this thread. It’s silly. All reasonable people will agree that while you may be able to call anything art, not everything can be good art. Only an occasional isolated snowshovel or urinal (or 3 as it were) can be art, and only in the ironic it’s not really art but it is ha ha sense. Yet people insist that anything can be validly described as a work of art, none of it any better or worse than the rest.

Sorry, but that’s wrong, obviously so, and just deeply offensive to anyone who cares at all. It’s literally the negation of art, espoused by people who claim to love art.

Ask HN: Resource to learn how to train and use ML Models
I am an experienced software engineer with decent knowledge of Python. I've used Machine Learning Models in the past to do stuff like background blurring etc.

What do I want?
I want to be able to train models and use them for the applications I intend to build. I honestly do not care about the Math, statistics or theory behind them. I just want to know enough to be able to train a model, use a model and productionize it. Most of the resources I have seen on the web are bloated with information that I consider irrelevant and don't care about. Are there any resources where I can simply learn to do these things?
Well with the kind money that agency has, they can buy the whole world several times over. Amazon is good example.

I would classify your last example as intelligence, not consciousness. I think most people would agree that most animals, at the very least many mammals, have some form of consciousness. It may even be that our consciousness doesn't differ qualitatively from theirs, and the only difference is the level of intelligence.
I tried setting up one of the open source servers and it was an awful experience. I dug around and it seems like most providers are using proprietary implementations or proprietary forks of servers that are no longer maintained. I was interested at the time in understanding how the big guys like Giganews and so on set up nntp, peering, storage, etc. Didn't get very far.

SEEKING WORK | Fullstack Developer, automation, bots, mass scraping | REMOTE, France

I started teaching myself to code when I was 10yo, I've been specializing in automation and fullstack JS development since 2015.

I can basically automate or scrape anything you can think of on any device, I've worked as a fullstack & growth engineer for startups and scale ups.

I automated all kind of processes at most of my jobs, in my personal projects and in my personal life.

Worked on a few entrepreneurial projects(mostly MVPs that didn't take off :))

I work mostly with Typescript/Node/React(native), AWS Lambda, Firebase, Puppeteer/Playwright and my own private automation libraries.(also worked with a lot of other languages/technologies that aren't necessarily worth mentioning)

What can we do to upheave this organization and their blatantly anticompetitive tactics?
I realized I had no idea what actual platform these were (I'm old enough to remember longing for one of these but never had one back in the day).

It's powered by the NEV V20 [1] processor, which is a 16-bit chip that is code and pin compatible with the more famous Intel 8088. The NEC chip was launched in March of 1984 which is interesting given that the Psion 3a came in 1991.

It feels like today launching a product based on a 7-year old CPU is more rare.

It would be cool (but perhaps sacrilegious) to upgrade the existing motherboard to some Arm SoC/microcontroller, if possible. I thought of it now while writing this, so clearly someone has already done so.

Surely doubling the money supply in circulation during the 2020 money printing boom had an effect on inflation, wouldn't you say? It' snot like the corporations and street banks just made their money out of thin air.

Do you mind explaining this? The linked article has an example very similar to yours, explaining how bank loans create money. Does this not apply to your scenario? Or is it talking about a completely unrelated concept on the banking system? Or is it that you simply think the article is wrong.

There are two things going on here: the shell script is replaced with a more verbose Guile script (this part isn't actually necessary); and the Guile script uses G-expressions to include deployment information.

G-expressions are not meant to replace shell scripts.

You could just as well use G-expressions with a shell script; the stringly typed shell script just doesn't feel nice when working with Scheme.

> goes on to specify "free and open"

No, it does not. It mentions "free and open-source software" (FOSS), which is a phrase in itself that cannot be split the way you did. Just go follow the link you are referring to! [1]

> Free and open-source software (FOSS) is a term used to refer to groups of software consisting of both free software and open-source software

Free and open are vague adjectives and it's a shame because it does not help at all, but when used in "open source" and "free software", they have a specific meaning. Gratis (non-free) software is referred to by "freeware".

Btw just to clarify, we are not building yet another website to chatbot product.

Not exactly.

Arc has "pinned tabs", but not "bookmarks". While they can be used similarly, I find it quite annoying to use the search to pull something out of my "bookmarks", only to have it open a directory hierarchy eight levels deep when I switch to it.

Likewise, if I navigate away from the page on the pinned tab, I lose my "bookmark".
For what it's worth, I didn't think that was edgy. Sometimes it's a good idea to think about worse case scenarios

I'm a bit confused by the article: they say that West Berlin kept the gas lamps, but Unter den Linden, which they give as one of the main examples, was in East Berlin? Especially since the "out with the old, in with the new" attitude was more widespread in the West actually (for instance, West Berlin completely dismantled their tram network, while it was kept in East Berlin). Plus, East Germany had easy access to gas from the USSR...
In case of Clojure I would argue it is the combination of very consistent - simple some would say ;-) - syntax and stability in the language that partially stems from the simplicity and, as you mention, at the same time extensibility of Lisp's approach "function first, arguments later" and homoiconicity. However, dynamic typing, immutable data structures by default, software transactional memory built into the language itself, stellar interop with Java (or JavaScript in case of ClojureScript) and the REPL workflow that eases things like hot-code reloading are all major contributors and reasons, why Clojure(Script) users are usually quite enthusiastic about the language family.

Don't get me wrong, Clojure does have some warts inherited from the approach of the host platform. E.g. I think its math could do nil pruning by default with e.g. unchecked-add and similar skipping nil pruning and overflow checking (for best performance in some tight scenarios). ClojureScript basically does nil pruning already.

As a side note, I would love if ClojureCLR picked up steam a lot more. I heard .NET is not as dynamic as the JVM which makes these things harder but if ClojureCLR would be on the same level as at least ClojureScript in terms of support and tooling, the Clojure family of languages would be really hard to beat for any kind of business application development. With ClojureDart, Babashka, NBB and to some degree Clojerl, Joker, Jank and others it seems the family extends much beyond the original "business applications" area into scripting, embedded and to some degree HPC or network programming as well. I guess we will see where it catches on.

Indeed, because it's a global discussion it's important to point out that the point is not globally applicable, because there are lots of areas where people indeed do need shelter to survive.

Well. The Raspberry Pi Zero 2 has an ARM Cortex-A53 SoC. The Zero 2 was released in October 2021, and the A53 line in October 2012. I don't think you'd struggle to find other A53 devices being released after 2019.

It almost feels like the A53 line is a bit of a special case, but then again, so was the 8088...

A problem I see is that someone could denoise an image and then add adversarial noise so that it resembles one of these signatures.

It is not good for watching video, but I'm sure I'm not the only who don't like watching moving pictures on small screens. Most ppl just want to read and send text.

The cut-price solution is clearly no solution at all.

I recall reading about a very successful animator who needed to sketch out every frame because he had severe aphantasia and thus had general ideas about what he wanted things to look like but couldn't envision the actual result without a visual aid.

Having an "inner picture" is helpful but neither necessary nor sufficient to be a designer. You can have a good intuition even when you're physically incapable of having "inner pictures". But yes, the tool is probably less useful if you have a vivid imagination.
No but usually these things can align quite well. Build a user friendly website and usage will go up. It seemed like reddit worked more on getting usage down by restricting a lot of usage to their app. I don't think that's in the interest of shareholders.

Especially interesting: Scroll down to headline "AI – is Skynet here already?"

Excerpt:

"He notes that one simulated test saw an AI-enabled drone tasked with a SEAD mission to identify and destroy SAM sites, with the final go/no go given by the human. However, having been ‘reinforced’ in training that destruction of the SAM was the preferred option, the AI then decided that ‘no-go’ decisions from the human were interfering with its higher mission – killing SAMs – and then attacked the operator in the simulation."

> SQL is not a proper composable language,

Very good point. Non-composable mean non-scalable (language).

I wonder if it would be possible to define a very small robust standard subset of SQL with a standard for extending it. But that would take away the customer-lock-in which is what all big DB-vendors desire.
I guess with that definition, Europe has a lot of very valuable start ups.

I'd prefer straight line, but from a navigation / right of access point of view just using the space above public roads is likely the easy starting point.

> In practice, the supermarket is no freer of class hierarchies than the world outside it. For instance, Auchan’s bulk-sweets aisle is riddled with signs prohibiting on-premises consumption. This wards off theft, theoretically, but to Ernaux this action is inherently classist—“a warning meant for a population assumed dangerous, since it does not appear above the scales in the fruit and vegetable area in the ‘normal’ part of the store.”

One must wonder whether either the Atlantic's writer, or Nobel-winning Ernaux [corrected], have ever heard of children. Let alone observed their behaviors around bulk sweets, or produce.
Storing and transmitting is always going to work with low-level storage units like bytes, so your string will need to be converted to that first. But string manipulation is extremely common in programming, and I would think graphemes are the most useful unit here - i.e. as a programmer my preference would be for swift's behaviour.

Also correlation is not causation. Just because some people jumping from planes have parachutes doesn't mean that all people jumping from planes have parachutes.
The fact that mice don't appear to deliberately jump off high things as a way to get down tells me that they probably do get hurt...

Just because they don't fall super fast doesn't mean they don't get injured because they don't have as much distance to "drop and roll" like a human does.
If you can recognize such a fingerprint, you can also trivially fake it or wipe it with an optimizer in the loop with the recognizer.
Agreed. Rust is already pretty comfortable.

Meant it more in the same that asm to rust is a jump and then there is another jump from say rust to python. I’m sitting on the rust rung and wondering whether that was the right choice so surprised people go one step further. (To each their own ofc)
