It must be because it's been almost been 60 years since Europeans and Americans last fought for better working conditions, and a little less than 100 years since child labor has been banned. People fighting for these rights have long died, and so will be their legacy.
All the type A are compatible though? I think most people consider that one.

There have been several common B (B, miniB, microB, appleB) but it was mostly all microB for quite a few years before C happened.
> The complaint was filed on May 18 in a Virginia district court where Waseem is based; Stability AI is incorporated in Delaware and the United Kingdom. The complaint was dismissed voluntarily by Waseem’s counsel on the same day that it was filed. Counsel for Waseem, as well as Mostaque and Stability AI, did not immediately respond to Motherboard’s request for comment.

This seems super weird (at least for someone who doesn't know how these dealings work). Any idea on why it might be filed and dismissed voluntarily in the same day?
Not surprising in the least.

- Kids are younger than average so they have less exposure-based immunity

- Kids have higher-degree more-connected physical proximity graphs than adults, they're usually in classes with a group of 20-30-ish other kids. Multiply that by a factor of 5 or more if they switch classes over 6-10 periods. Then they get on a school bus with yet another group of kids.

- Kids (especially young ones) don't always keep the same social boundaries as adults, more likely to sneeze / cough on each other, share food / plates, etc.
>Some people don’t want to work. They’ve told me so

...and? That's fine. there will always be some people who do not want to work. a UBI guarantees somewhat basic level of living conditions at least.
As a foreign developer living in Austria I'd like to offer a counter perspective: that might be why Austria, even in the tech scene has some of the lowest and least flexibly WFH possibilities I've ever seen in any EU job market: so the bosses can keep a close eye on you at the office, because they can't via SW.

Every job I applied to, even the most liberal ones mandates at least 2 day per week at the office in the best case, with some SW companies having max 1 day per week WFH because "we're more efficient at the office" lol. Every time I ask at an interview if they let me work 100% from home, so I don't waste 2h/day commuting, they look at me like I asked them to let me f*ck their mom.

Also, many Austrian companies keep rigid track of your time and breaks at the office via electronic card punch in/out systems which are a government mandated legalized forms of workplace surveillance, meaning I have to spend 8h per day at the office regardless of my work being done in 5 and unable to do anything remotely productive for the remaining 3 because my brain is fried, while some companies even make you punch out for coffee breaks so you're not taking a break on your employer's dime, meaning you need to spend even more time at the office what's beyond your legal allowed 30 min lunch break which is also not included in your 8h closely-recorded workday.

So IMHO, it's not all as progresive as you make it sound. It feels like an archaic system designed to keep unionized factory workers strictly in line to their mandated 30 min lunch breaks and making sure no overtime occurs on their shift, but is severely out of place in the world of digital knowledge work where it's used in some companies to keep employees at the office glued for 8 hours to their chairs.
There is absolute nothing to suggest catastrophic or even rapid climate change. Yes we can detect human activity that is changing the planet and will have impacts on the climate. Preaching that it will result in any more suffering than the current or a previous state of the world is completely faith based without evidence.
I always loved having a cable coming out of the GPU and connecting to another card. There have been many versions of this throughout my use of various expansion cards. This is excluding the SLI type of internal connections.
This was a major reason governments decided to close schools. People seemed to think it was to protect kids (and it was, in part, especially in the beginning while the impact wasn't clear yet) but kids excellent carriers and superspreaders for all kinds of viruses and bacteria. Not just for COVID, but also for many other outbreaks such as the flu.
I don't think they'd have enough replacements ready quick enough. They'd have to decide between an influx of spam from having no moderation and upset users, massive disruption from upset disruptive moderators, or stale content by freezing all submissions to the site.

If I were in their position, I would have trained for this scenario, and already prepared a way to put entire subreddits into 'read only' mode which just replays history - ie. show funny cat pictures from last year. Then any subreddit that starts talking too much about leaving for a new platform gets put in read only mode. Let people think they are still interacting - ie. people can still upvote/downvote/comment, but it's mostly/all dummy stuff.

But... I bet they haven't prepared, and will be caught off guard.
I think the OP is likely refering to mandatory vaccination campaigns of kids.
Mastodon itself doesn't, but maybe he's referring to Tusky, a popular FOSS Mastodon client, preventing its users from logging in with an account tied to an alt-right instance (gab and a few others I think). They used to also filter any content coming from these accounts but I can't it in the code so they must have removed that part.

As for the login block itself it's there: https://github.com/tuskyapp/Tusky/blob/01b3cb3a53b1e08ed26e7...

For a while F-Droid considered forcing all clients to implement such a ban but in the end they decided against it, see https://f-droid.org/en/2019/07/16/statement.html
> my daily standup is at 9:30AM. I typically join the standup on my phone, and make coffee and have a snack. Our standup runs 30-45mins due to how it’s managed and doesn’t provide much value to me

Ugh, I feel you on that. (tho I don't agree with the monitoring part, there's no need for it)

I just realized that I haven't had these silly daily standups for nearly a year now, since changing companies. And guess what? My team is the most productive team I ever worked in. I provide a weekly written update on the project I'm on for leadership to read. We had a weekly 15mins standup for a while when we needed a very tight loop between people on the project as one of the releases was coming up, then scrapped it when things went back to normal.

I don't miss the daily standups and scrummasters at all.
What an argument in bad faith. You are being extremely reductive in order to glaze over the litany of other issues here.

Minors should not be cleaning dangerous equipment in slaughterhouses. Not to mention the lack of labor protections, blatant disregard for existing labor laws, the fact that most of the children are undocumented... need I go on?
The elderly vote Conservative, almost by definition. QED.
Mods can set the subreddit to private.
UBI isn't covid money printer though. You're misrepresenting it either intentionally or by mistake to discredit it.

UBI would, and should, replace current welfare schemes. We already have those in place.
Show HN: ReleaseZip – release and share zip files via .zip domain
As Google recently released the new .zip top level domain, it is valid to enter some "zip filename" to the address bar. I wonder it might serve as a more intuisive way to release and share zip files, so I developed a tiny website "ReleaseZip" to show the idea.

It is very simple -- upload a zip file (yourfile.zip), and you can instantly access it through yourfile.released.zip (copy & paste it to the address bar in your browser). That's it.

You can even use it in command line, type

> curl -LF file=@yourfile.zip releasezip.com

and then you can access it anywhere by

> curl -JLO yourfile.released.zip

As an experimental project, only file < 1MB is supported yet and the file may not be permanently storaged. Please just use it for fun :)
> You don't actually have any definition of "alt right", it's a made up term used to mean anyone who isn't an extreme progressive.

I will certainly not start wasting my time defining these terms - I'm sure most of us agree close enough who we mean here. Hint: it's not "anyone who isn't an extreme progressive", as for example Dick Cheney is not alt right.

> They are very much being silenced by the government. See the Twitter Files for just one piece of evidence.

This is nothing new. See Manufacturing Consent by Noam Chomsky. However, everything that's being censored in Twitter is still freely publishable on an independent forum - the government will not persecute the publisher. Free speech doesn't mean any garbage must be tolerated in all platforms. It just means government won't come after you for trying to get it out wherever you can.

> Regardless, the reason the government is usually treated as special in these discussions it because it was previously assumed that the government was the only entity that could systematically suppress speech. That isn't the case any longer.

The government is clearly a special case, since it's the only of its kind - and at least on paper should serve its people. Private corporations have only the shareholders to please.

> Fundamentally you won't be able morally to complain if one day the left is being systematically censored, cancelled and driven underground, because as you admit, that is your own goal too.

But I am already unhappy that many inconvenient topics are not highlighted in the media! It's just simply not a freedom of speech issue.
Yeah, it's funny how we got the idea that what makes the economy tick is economists and their policy suggestions, as opposed to businesses and production and exports and inventions...
The average (mean) pay is inflated by the pay that goes to the top writers making several millions annually. The median pay is far less than $260k; the WGA estimate it is now around $70k. I know plenty of writers that were making comfortable upper-middle-class lives 10 years ago that now make less than $100k/year despite working more, on multiple shows each year.

EDIT: One of my friends was a writer on a FOX broadcast show a few years ago. With the writer's room salary and residuals from one broadcast episode script, she and her husband were able to buy a house in LA near El Segundo. She's a showrunner now for a streaming show, but makes less now than she did as a staff writer. For a tech analogy: imagine if you made it to CTO and made less than you did as a junior programmer even though the company was making even more off of your work than it did before.

Somehow any iota of outrage I might have felt just evaporated. Elites griping about even bigger elites don't muster much sympathy.

Yes, this is how everyone outside of tech thinks about tech people these days... Remember that you said this the next time you're out of work and looking for sympathy and people are talking crap about you.
I can relate. I always had suspected ADHD during highschool and college. Extreme procrastination, tons on unfinished side projects. School psychologist and psychiatrist diagnosed with depression but I was convinced it was ADHD (it is probably both). The stimulant meds did help (taking on large tasks) but procrastination was still an issue. I stopped fairly quickly after 3 months, but many years later, after Covid, I am giving medications a try again.

I tried lexapro for a year, it certainly helped anxiety but not with motivation. I switched to a strong dose (300mg) of Wellbutrin XL and it does help more with motivation, but everything seems more intense and anxiety is a bit unbearable. But I found the intensity helps. I would wake up in the morning early having the urge to do shit (body was telling me I HAD TO DO IT vs no urge to get started on my day). Now I am augmenting with Prozac to see if it will balance out. When augmenting with Lexapro, I was too tired and relaxed to do anything.

Ritalin is great. I initially had Adderall but switched to Ritalin which is legal in most countries unlike Adderall. It doesn't necessarily help motivation but it does make starting a task easier (gives you more confidence and less negative emotion)

I am hoping to try Parnate which essentially raises all three serotonin, noradrenaline and dopamine, replacing all my current meds. It has a larger side affect profile but I am hoping the benefits outweigh that. There is also Nardil which is less stimulating with less side effects and helps more with anxiety.

Check out these which I think is worth a read:

Honestly the only way I can be productive is turning off the WiFi (not the router). Prepare everything you need for offline then shut it off. My brain realizes, there is no internet so the only thing I can do is write code. Pair that with some unit tests or maybe TDD, which basically is a todo list that crosses itself out (running those tests really does make a nice feedback loop)

Have OpenAI or some other LLM take a shot at at writing code for you. Sometimes it just works and sometimes its crap, either way (you can fix the crap), it will get you over that obstacle you may have been avoiding. You can also describe the project to it and it can break it down into small tasks for you, or write an outline of what all needs to get done.

Isolation is an alternative to treatment. Treatment is a daily pill.
I can't speak for "the scientific community", but most of what I heard was that kids are largely unaffected by Covid 19, except for some cold symptoms, and it was the adults that were in any real danger.
The last time subreddits staged a coordinated strike like this, Reddit warned they would replace moderators next time. I wonder if they'll make good on their threat? I wish they would, the powermod situation on reddit is out of control. Part of the reason these coordinated strikes happen is because most top subreddits are ran by the same handful of people. It would do reddit some good to get variety among the moderators.
> Whether scaling laws hold or not, is up for debate.

The scaling laws have broken:

Your understanding of universal income is broken. Everybody receives a monthly income, regardless of them working or not. The incentive to earn more by working is always there.
Same legal energy as:

> I do not give Instagram or any entities associated with Facebook permission to use my pictures, information, messages or posts, both past and future. With this statement, I give notice to Instagram it is strictly forbidden to disclose, copy, distribute, or take any other action against me based on this profile and/or its contents. The content of this profile is private and confidential information. The violation of privacy can be punished by law (UCC 1-308- 1 1 308-103 and the Rome Statute). NOTE: Instagram is now a public entity. All members must post a note like this. If you prefer, you can copy and paste this version. If you do not publish a statement at least once it will be tacitly allowing the use of your photos, as well as the information contained in the profile status updates. DO NOT SHARE. Copy and paste.
young people gonna do
You can accuse UBI of many things but unfair it is clearly not, hence the "universal". Everyone gets the same amount - but the assumption is most will then choose to work and earn extra income on top of that.
Our kids are 17 & 19, and this fits what I remember. Little kid hands always seemed moist and sticky, making for perfect vectors.
I have felt that way for a while. It seems like a place where propaganda would have a very good ROI. I see fewer and fewer tech articles on here and more and more "culture war" stuff. But I have only been active about 2 years. I'd like to know if the vibe was different before.

I can see occassionally "503 Service Temporarily Unavailable" errors too. Also DMR's picture is "broken". Maybe the server is temporarily overloaded by the number of visits caused by this post. After all, it's an archived homepage and likely not running on the most performant webserver.

Like most project based employees, writers make their money when they work, and nothing when they don't.

This means that the years they are making an "average" of $260k needs to offset the years when they aren't landing any writing gigs at all.

And indeed, this is part of how Hollywood pay is structured: the seemingly inflated pay is adjusted for the fact that the work itself is highly sporadic.
Are you claiming you are irresponsible for denouncing that individual in the first place in an attempt to get them fired?
>The desktop operating system he championed still rules the roost. While not every bet is a winner, it would be hard to argue that MS or Bill himself were bad at predicting the future of PCs.

I would argue that he didn't predict anything.

He got lucky with the IBM deal, and then been competent (and shady) in keeping it up and expanding. But not through any visionary predicting ability.
So if you have the opportunity to stop working and keep being paid, wouldn't you take it?
I'm sure the mayority of people don't want to work. It's not a natural thing to do.
The key element that makes it a different debate is the involvement of children. There is widespread precedent for children to have limited rights and responsibilities, and limiting what media they have access to is entirely commonplace and not done to curtail speech.
Browser side solutions have been provided by other users (not by hn) to hide certain coversations. I think it's an excellent solution to hide climate change stuff if you so wish, unless you're using an app all the time.

More than plenty of other stories going around to drown climate change conversations in, so to speak. No need to delete them imo. Besides, we're smart enough to ignore the in our opinion boring and political stuff.
Pretty sure the burden is on you to prove it is not just a method, but also the only method.

Most trivial things can be measured outside time. Many jobs measured on time, we already know why they are measured on time (low activity, presence-based jobs). Anything else, measuring based on behavior/time spent is management being lazy and not doing what they should be doing: comparing inputs and outputs, and measuring the impact of changes to them to improve productivity.

If a manager can't do something that basic, they shouldn't be looking for more bad proxies to hound people with. They should be doing the company a favor and quit.
Also one of the reasons it was important to vaccinate kids. People seem to have a really hard time reasoning about graphs. Typical white Americans also had trouble understanding outside their demographic multigenerational households are common. Kids killing their grandparents is a heavy burden in life.

It's been almost 60 years since Europeans and Americans last fought for better working conditions, and a little less than 100 years since child labor has been banned. Is it because the people fighting for what we have today in terms of working conditions have long died? Is it because rogue capitalism and globalized economy is putting such a toll on industrialized countries that workers in those countries aren't be able to compete with the countries where the cost of living is cheaper? Anyway, it's sad to see that the U.S. are slowly getting back to the 1900s in terms of work conditions.

The employer must not under-record the time worked - no one forces them to track the duration of breaks.
Upload your entire codebase/repo and ask GPT-3 to implement features for you
All enterprise productivity products are capable of spying on their users. It is up to the sysadmins, legal/ethics teams, and company culture to not allow for that surveillance to be used. And to be fair, most of the data that is being discussed isn't new and has been available to employers for ~10 years in one form or another. Not that that makes it better.

I run an O365 instance for my company. We have thousands of users. The only time the data that is referenced here is being used is for some rare troubleshooting or litigation reasons.

You seem to be talking about architecture, Simon is discussing training datasets.

Of course, the contents of those datasets is trade secret too, but Simon is not looking for the contents, or even the cleaning strategies, just the lineage; is OpenAI using my private data? I don’t care how, just whether they are or not.
This is from the OpenAI pages "OpenAI LP’s primary fiduciary obligation is to advance the aims of the OpenAI Charter, and the company is controlled by OpenAI Nonprofit’s board. All investors and employees sign agreements that OpenAI LP’s obligation to the Charter always comes first, even at the expense of some or all of their financial stake."

Whether this is what's really going on or not, it's up to the courts to sort it out, or maybe it'll get sorted out without going to court. Since there's some past beef with other big-name billionaires, curious reporters should check out if there's someone else footing the bill for what could be a really pricey lawsuit.
I think you might have missed the next sentence in my text that you quoted. Alt right people are not persecuted for their opinions, so they still have their freedom of speech. They just like to pretend that they don't.
Yep. Two years of respite from cold/flu was one of the few bright spots.
Can someone explain why this is such a big deal to some people? I legitimately don’t understand why this matters.

Third party clients seem to be fairly niche with limited usage, I’m not sure why inexpensive access to an API is a required right for forum software.

I don’t expect this to affect my usage of Reddit at all, and wondering who and what it does affect aside from a small number of third party client users.

To be clear, I’m _not_ asserting that there is no reason. I’m just hoping someone can explain what I’m missing.
