There are definitely challenges, but your own link shows they're already trying, and that's following the more famous Tay failure. The incentives are obvious, while I doubt the challenge - at least regarding global user data - is insurmountable. It's rather well suited to BigCorp capabilities (and more difficult for OSS).

BigCorps are perfectly willing and able to deploy an army of moderators if required. Not too different than what OpenAI used to jumpstart its GPT. The reward is a market valued in billions, the moderators get minimum or 3rd world wage. If I were a BigCorp I'd jump on it.

[EDIT: we can see from the front page MEZO article that tuning does not have to be computationally expensive]

>I would love seeing corporations trying to explain that to, say, the EU regulators, with regards to the GDPR.

I don't think it's a big problem: For once, BigCorp is truly not interested in PII for training the model. Compared to what they're already doing in other fields, no reason they shouldn't be able to pass retraining easily.

>SD benefits from having a base model that already meets or exceeds the performance of closed source models.

I wanted to avoid saying it, but there are obvious SD usecases which the typical commercial interests would rather avoid. There are very motivated existing communities, which are far more likely to have a GPU. Adobe is weaker overall. The model is more accessible compared to still non-trivial LLM initial training. IMHO, these are more likely reasons than the raw technical comparison which I don't think the regular user or even regular dev bothers with.

>I have already given an example for an OSS software product in the generative AI space with superb UX

Which is why I bother writing these comments. Because OSS can compete by being good enough. But I see BigCorp strategies which give the incumbents a good chance to keep a stranglehold given the way it's going currently. Right now the ecosystem tends towards overconfidence (dumb dumb Google memo), and I think highlighting the challenges may help correction in time.

>there are also countless commercial products with horrible UX.

True. Which shows moats have more reason than technical comparisons.

>Why? App stores exist.

You still need visibility to get users to install your model. There's the (surmountable) technical challenge of deployment across varied configurations. Did I mention the biggest App stores are run by the closed competition? [Insert million HN threads about App store policies]

It should be obvious that the companies who get to install their model API by default without asking the user have an advantage, and the devs having to submit their models to be approved by the these companies are at a disadvantage.
It probably depends on how small the tip is, but you're right. Leaving a substantially undersized tip is a statement that you were unhappy about something. Leaving no tip isn't.
The BSI used Jquery 1.7. until last year so I would not trust a security tool from them
From my understanding in recent years Mint uses a lot more of the Quicken/QuickBooks semi-formal APIs when formal APIs don't exist. My understanding is that is one of the few, biggest benefits of Mint being bought by Intuit because that 200-pound gorilla has always had a surprising number of special read only APIs and export dump tools from even the quirkiest, smallest banks because of how ubiquitous their tax software is (and how many users would rebel if they didn't have easy access in Quicken or QuickBooks).
I have seen this advice many times but I end up using os.system() 70% of the time. If subprocess and other methods were smart enough to support running something like " ls -l aS " without requiring additional parameters/handling I would use them. If I was shipping a user facing production app I would be using the more recommended apis as well. But when I just need a freaking command run and I don't care about the results and there is no dynamic parameter in the command why would I add all that code and complexity? Most of my use cases could also be done as a bash script except python is nicer/leaner so i prefer it instead.
For a lot of us the lack of ranked AI managed feed is the feature. I was using Tweetbot on Twitter for that exact reason.

Most people consume Toots by going through their feed, retweeting is just a button away, just like on Twitter.

Quote tweet is definitely lacking, and thankfully is coming up soon according to their CEO and lead developer.

And yes, poor discovery, the search is awful. It's quite a lot better with hashtags and following hashtags in your feed (great feature IMO), but they need to work on that.

Personally I find that while there are flaws, they are smaller than having to endure the amount of spam, ads and garbage I see on twitter. Conversations with people are good and insightful. It's just better for my mental health as well, less of AI generated outrage takes showing up.
The main issue it's CUDA. Most ML developers use it, or use libraries that depends on CUDA as an envoirments.

Right. More details needed to know if this is good stewardship (ejecting two toxic individuals) or laziness (ejecting a villain and a hero to get rid of the "problem" easily). TikTok was using this method for a while by ejecting both bullies and victims, and it "solved" the problem but most people see the injustice there.

I'm not saying it was bad stewardship, I honestly don't know. I just agree that we shouldn't make a judgment without more information.

No, the lottery prize is exactly the same: Access to every site in the list.

The lottery chances have, however, dramatically changed, from no longer relying on the ongoing security practices of every single website you have ever signed into once being eternally a risk to breaching every single other website you have ever signed into.

Perhaps you alone can remember a cryptographically secure password for every website. But I’d more suspect your downvotes come from the impression you give of apparent inexperience combined with what looks like a child-like propensity to bluster.

One of the things I like about CoreData is that all the relationships and entities are defined in one file, and its easier to browse the history of that schema to see how the models evolved. One of the things I dislike though is that it doesn't interop well with swift types and almost everything has to be marked as optional. It looks like this SwiftData solves the second problem, but since definitions are spread across all the classes individually, it's harder to get a glance at the whole schema at once.
It's incredibly heartwarming and validating to read someone whose path is so similar to mine.

These social networks are very addictive, you might start out with genuine interest but it becomes gamified social interactions pretty quickly. I bet you’ll go to a new site with the intention of commenting on a specific topic, but then get wrapped up commenting for points. That’s how I felt about Reddit at least, and realizing it is what made me quit.

I joined this site because I thought it would break that gamified social interaction loop by being tied to a particular topic. But actually, I’ve realized I speculate about my comment scores even here while making them. I think this one would have done well, it sort of begrudgingly admires Reddit while also saying negative things about it, and social media in general. People here like talk in the abstract about social media, I think because it plays into the hope that maybe we’re somehow outside it. This comment is also self-depreciating and, I think, fairly relatable (since I’m sure most of the commenters here have some history with using Reddit, and possibly quitting it). Of course, now that I’ve mentioned the points for this comment, it will almost certainly be downvoted to oblivion, because that’s like rule 0 of this game. Unless I can save it by being sufficiently meta, maybe…

I apologize. I guess I miscommunicated something. I mean that a creator can opt to charge what they want and also turn off ads if they choose. Or front load the ads, like theaters do. Really, it is up to the creator how they want to format their content.
Guessing what they mean by show codes on cursor. Showing markdown around the cursor is now in Obsidian, but previously it was in Typora, FoldingText, and a circa 2016 web app called "usecanvas":

There may be examples prior to that, but that's the earliest that I recall.

I'm not sure what is meant by local modal editing - is that describing what logseq does? It switches a block to plain markdown when you're editing it.

I thought word perfect show codes was in another pane, but it's been a very long time since I've seen it, and I didn't use it personally.
I'm Gen-X, but I think Z is making the right call in thinking about FIRE. If the older generations have built a economic structure that the younger generations want to opt of, then that is the old generation's fault. It isn't on the younger people to just deal with it.

The older generations will experience (if not learn) the consequences of voting selfishly all the time, and that price will be paid, sooner or later.

To be fair, I understand why they're skeptical. A brain's perception of itself is imperfect, and sometimes completely made-up. (Actually, one could make the argument that all perception is completely made-up, but I digress.)

Since we're talking about things that happened inside my own head, how can I know whether I actually experienced a certain period of time, or only created a memory of having experienced that time? My own recollection of it may be flawed, so it logically follows that in order to know for sure, I have to find some way to objectively quantify it. I don't know how I'd objectively quantify the number of thoughts I'm having, though, lol.

I know in the context of Lemmy this is an unfair criticism, but for the 99.99% of Reddit users not technical enough, or technical enough but not motivated enough, to run this software on their own any replacement needs to be an actual running site and not OSS that helps you set up a site.

As someone who lived through the first wave of supercomputers (I worked with Cray Y-MP models), it makes me very happy to see the second wave. For a while I thought supercomputing was dead and we would just be connecting lots of PCs with a network and calling that "supercomputers".

I still remember how my mind was blown when I first learned that all of the memory in a Cray Y-MP was static RAM. Transistor-based flip-flops: extremely power hungry, but also very fast. Another way of looking at it is that all of its RAM was what we call "cache".

This, finally, looks like a supercomputer.
No, there's never a sign. Like with all tipping, you're supposed to just "know" somehow.

But (at least then -- I've noticed that things are a bit different now) there is usually a little card telling you the name of your housekeeper. That's where you're supposed to leave the tip (if you're leaving one). Money on the card was deemed a tip, money left anywhere else was deemed forgotten property and turned in (if the housekeeper was being honest).

Where I worked (at a Hilton), we had to clean 17 rooms per day. If every room left a $1 tip -- which never actually happened -- that would come close to doubling my wages for the day. It made a significant difference.

I've had a huge amount of success using sqlite to collect and analyze logs. The obvious approach would have been to dump enormous csv or json files, but doing in sqllite gave me (a) much better reliability, and (b) the ability to come up with post-hoc analysis approaches without changing the main process.

I was really pleased to add it to my toolkit.
It's not just that it introduces uncertainty by trying to predict the future, it's that it contends that most important issues are the ones that effect people in the extreme distant future--which is the time that's the most difficult to predict, meaning the predictions have the largest possible uncertainty.

>do a lot of people even want more social media and internet communities?

Not necessarily more, but I feel like I haven't truly found a community I am comfortable with for the specific kinds of topics I want to talk about. Most are too small, and the big ones are arguably too big (i.e. it becomes a lot of noise and not a lot of conversation). On one end I get no more discussion than me sitting alone in my room. On the other end I inevitably fall into pace with the anger and feel worse off as a result.
