No Trial Today or Ever: YouTube Content ID Lawsuit Dismissed at 11th Hour
>The issue is that data is the opposite or wfh and in the office are on par in terms of productivity.

But clearly, the tech companies recalling workers disagree.

PS. I don't believe in 3rd party studies since they rely surveys and the subjectiveness of remote workers. Companies actually have access to employee data. Also, studies need to be multi-year because while people were likely enthusiastic and motivated 3 years ago, they might have checked out while WFH by now.
Nah. Cause well known brands can and do put/share-out their identity on all kinds of stupid shit. Therefore the Whiskey to DogToy boundary is very thin.
I found Ruby to be an acceptable Perl. Easier on the mind. Easier on the reader. Still hard on the IDE (since it's dynamically typed, so hard to implement IDE hints based on the type -- I know some typing is available now).

The I found Kotlin to be an acceptable "typed Ruby". :) It's a bit steeper in the learning curve, but apart from that it fits the bill pretty well. Though Ktor is not nearly as rich in ecosystem as Rails is.
When you start hearing about $19,000 fines for a single incident, it's no surprise you feel like wanting to encourage people to get those nice, perfectly legal, Comtrend powerline networking adaptors. With that manufacturer being fully approved, and happening to be one of the worst offenders. Not surprising one bit.

Those threats incite disobedience and rebellion. Meanwhile hams complain about being shut down because their 800 Watt linear amplifiers (11:14 into that video) are interfering with insulin pumps. Not giving a damn about the victim, and even blaming the victim.

And I will continue campaigning about such injustices in society, not only limited to amateur radio, using my legally protected right to freedom of speech, while fully staying within the law.

Even more: https://www.quora.com/What-are-the-legal-penalties-for-trans...

" If on the other hand you thought you'd be a smart alec and jump on the bands to say hello or to wind up the Amateur community, then according to this link…

You could be fined $10,000 as an initial fine, and then multiple fines of $7,000 for each infringement. So it can get expensive very quickly.

You can also be sent to jail — particularly if you cause harmful interference to services such as Fire, Police etc.

And for those who believe you won't get caught, bear in mind that the Amateur Radio community are quite capable of easily tracking down anyone who screws with the licensed bands, and passing that information on to the FCC along with evidence such as recordings or logs of transmissions. "

Let's come up with some more ideas: Can we train an AI to imitate amateur radio operators???? That sounds interesting... We can capture large chunks of spectrum in one go, identify channel frequencies and train on everything simultaneously....
I think Chris Martenson/Peak Prosperity goes too far on certain things (a little too-prepper/gold+silver) but I did find his videos for the first few months of COVID to be informative and well done especially when it came to the lab leak theory. His coverage of Hydroxychloroquine was well measured for the time it came out and I felt like he did an appropriate about-face once it was clear it didn't help.
It's harmful nonsense but I don't see how it sabotages nuclear energy. If anything, proponents of nuclear energy should be thrilled. Free energy, now available for legacy heating technology.

The party that keeps insisting on adding these laughable electricity-to-fuel regulations is amenable to nuclear power plants and would undoubtedly have kept them running in a different coalition.
People largely worry about being able to afford children. Most people especially without children, don't care if the society in the future survives. I don't see how this is hard to understand.

If there are people who care about civilization surviving into the the future, making it economically advantageous to have children would be a good plan.
Yes, they replace them because not only would your glasses not fit, they'd also mess up the field-of-view or the perspective according to what I've read (forgot the link). So you need custom lenses.
This is where some acknowledgement of the fact a lot of low hanging fruit has been eaten at this point is in order. I feel like more game changing products of this decade are not going to be Uber for X type apps but more original creations.
The Apple ecosystem is definitely being underestimated. Both the AW and iPad would not be what they are today without that ecosystem out the box.

I'm still not sure if it's enough to be successful, but if an AR/VR device is to finally take off, an iteration of the VP is probably it.
Story time: Worked at a large multinational, and 6-7 years ago they decided they had to ape into the whole “data science” gold rush. They spent millions of dollars on hardware, software, salaries, and consulting.

After a year with not much to show for it, the VP for the silo starts to put out kudos for the team for break-even revenue impact. However, behind the scenes, the insight they were taking credit for was a common sense idea that had already been in the e-commerce team’s backlog.

Nothing surprises me when a company says that they’ve run the numbers.
Israel is the one shining example of a country with a TFR well above replacement (around 3.0, and stable) despite being economically modern. They have lessons to teach us
> Americans have been trained from birth to bootlick for their nation.

Hmm... I'd like to point out that, while possibly controversial, my initial post was made in good faith, and was not meant to be a troll.

The comment to which you responded, though disagreeing with mine, was still in the same spirit. I even upvoted it, because it was exactly the correct response.

However, your response was ... maybe ... just a bit more ... strident, shall we say?

I hate to have to be the one to mention that this is a professional venue, attended by people that can easily have massive impact on our careers.

I know that it's fashionable to attack and insult older Americans, but I would gently suggest that these attacks are best done in other venues (which I don't attend).
Just adding to this for the record since this was silently downvoted.

Most businesses make decisions based on $$. And they are happy to buy anything that helps their business. It's the cost of doing business. Think shopify apps. Most of those apps could be open source even if the only way to install them instantly was buying them through the app site. So having a paid for app for an open source project would be a great way get paid (or fund raise). Kind of like Linux being packaged for sale on the shelves of bookstores. That wasn't free, but people would buy it.

For business transactions, adding virtues and missions and meaning doesn't really come into play unless the marketing department has some plans that coincide with whatever virtues being sold. If the business is small, then maybe the founder. But again, it's not directly relevant to the product and use of it. Activism can be distracting when all you want to do is take care of business.

"If you agree with me, help me (or don't, you can still have it)" is a tougher sell compared to "this is $100, thank you, btw i believe in this" especially to the person/entity that could easily afford it (and pays for proprietary licenses already).

It's clear that if more OSS projects did better at making themselves money, they'd survive and maybe afford the price of continuing to improve and get better. This is in the interest of open source. I never took os to mean non-profit, although it has been synonymous with not-able-to-profit for quite some time now.

If OSI is an authority, maybe it would be in the best interest of "the community" if more help (in the form of guidelines and best practices) was provided in recouping development costs.
Crypto is easier to carry across borders until you’re wealthy enough to have private Swiss bankers
It may have the biggest selection of day-1 apps but definitely not the best.

You really believe that an app made for touch on a fixed 2D screen will miraculously be pleasant to use in VR/AR just by checking a box?
Not so. We have centuries of experience with respiratory disease, and nothing turned out substantially different in the end. I made this statement when they closed our beaches.

Also the don’t-mask/mask thing was an outright lie. Huge mistake that gave nuts a foothold.
What's with the sudden influx of "smol" things? Is this related to "smol" ML / "smol" AI models, and/or the HN user that (IIRC) is associated with them and likes to use the word "smol" in their comments?
You're fooling yourself to think that Tesla is the solution. First, most of the fatalities are in cars that cost much much less than Tesla. Their owners will never afford a Tesla. Second, the only realistic way to prevent some of these deaths is to empower public transport, the way it's done in Europe. Third, although that's the least important point, Tesla statistics of miles driven between crashes are biased, because they turn off autopilot before crashes [1].

Please be careful not to conflate the goals of capitalism with the goals of technology and science.

No clue what it will appear as once it is there, but I'm not seeing it listed as Apple supported in the cppreference table either. It is listed as "Text Formatting" there.

If you are not also "for" all the boring basic stuff like "stop paying people to release GHG into the atmosphere" then specifically supporting that one policy probably marks you out as a sucker who has absorbed the propaganda of the people who got us into this mess. But as long as you support all the easier to implement solutions too, it's no big deal to add that one extra one.
It kinda makes sense. Nobody else is doing AR/VR in a terribly interesting way. The Quest is cool, but pretty lame for anything except playing rhythm games, PSVR is more of the same but hella expensive.

I think all the other players WANT VR to take off, but haven't yet made a truly compelling offering that attracts anything but nerds. Apple has been forced to step in early to encourage the market to develop. Just like the others this first version will be early adopters, nerds and developers only but Apple will make it MORE compelling (unlike Meta who made their "pro" model less compelling) for the mass markets with future iterations because that is just what Apple does.
> Total is ~28200 moderators

5 moderators control 92 of the top 500 subs. That cuts both ways.

There are a lot of mods lower on the totem pole but it's a handful of people making the call to shut reddit down, and it wouldn't be that costly to kick them out, put an admin at the top, and open the subs again.

Once you've pried the big ones back open... who cares if r/warhammer wants to stay closed? You don't need to take over every little niche hobby sub, as long as the big tiktok-style content-drip subs get back running.

That's the future of Reddit, in Reddit's eyes. Tiktok 2.0. That's where the shareholder value is, they don't give a shit about your niche hobby sub with 10k users being closed.

Even if the lower-ranked mods don't want to mod anymore, you will always find some schmuck who wants to push buttons at people. People can't resist it even here on HN, people love flagging/downvoting. What's the least amount of power that can go to someone's head? Internet forums moderator, most definitely. There will always be an endless stream of people willing to do it for the tiny bit of clout it affords them.

> (basically making it pointless),

saving the business isn't really pointless for reddit. They have procedures to replace mods after 48 hours and we very well might see them deploy them.

They've made it clear they understand the frustration and where people are coming from and they don't care. In fact they are actually doubling down on fucking up the web experience for mobile etc to push people to the native app on those platforms.

She's not that into you, bro.

Remember, this is Reddit... they bought Dubsmash, with a 25% market penetration in the black teen community, killed the platform/app, and turned it into a subreddit with 1.5k subscribers, a conversion rate of around 0.01%. They don't mind doing big Twitter-style changes that risk losing a lot of users even if the conversion rate is abysmal.

People are approaching this from the perspective of "what would I, a rational person do, to preserve the Reddit I know and love?" and not Reddit's perspective of pivoting the business to being Tiktok 2.0. In their (probably correct) assessment, that pivot evidently requires people being on the native app/new experience.

The hobby stuff is fine especially if it draws in users but it's not where the money is for them. They need advertiser $.
Do systems on a chip count as embedded? I don't mean the vision pro, I mean their hardware architecture in general. I did some embedded work at university and it was a lot of fun, but SOCs for macbooks seem like such a different thing than little PICs that I never considered them the same thing. Actually curious
It's quite extraordinary to think that a civilization that mastered interstellar travel (or interdimensional, or time, or whatever we think this is about) wouldn't have mastered the art of flying in an atmosphere, something we, monkeys that have gotten down from the trees in the last couple minutes in cosmic terms and that discovered flight a short hundred years ago, can do much more reliably (considering how rarely airliners go down).
And then I'm talking with corporate managers who are searching for the alternatives and are simply lost with this leaderboard as they have no clue what these scores mean to them, they don't know if they can use the models commercially, and what are the use cases for each of them. Different people, diffrent needs. Thanks for your opinion, though.
No idea how people have more than one kid... at least in the bay area. I have one kid and the cheapest decent childcare I've found costs about $30k/year, and is only approx. half time. It ends at ~2pm, and is closed all summer and about one week per month on average. It's been a huge struggle to keep a career going under these circumstances.

Even at prices and hours like this, there are year long wait lists for spots in these. I've several times had to take my kid out of childcare (kicked out, or they went out of business) and had to hire a nanny full time for 6 mo to 1 year before I could find another childcare spot. At the time I was paying 110% of my take home income to have a nanny despite having a PhD in a high demand field, burning through my savings with hopes of finding another childcare spot without ending my career. Not sure how anyone else does this.

As of now, I WFH while watching my son alone about half of the hours, which is really hard. I feel like I am not giving him the attention he deserves, and it's really hard to focus.
The mass market appeal of this thing is, primarily, a portable setup with 2 4k screens and top-notch eye-tracking. The latter is very important, and I think will be a usability boon for literally every computer user, whatever they use it for, perhaps beyond what we expect.

I can imagine going to the coffee shop to work on some code, and instead of using a laptop, whip this thing out, while sitting on a comfy couch sipping a latte... And if I want to play an immersive game for a bit, I can do that too.
Ask HN: How are you leveraging AI tooling in your software development workflows
With AI being all the rage at the moment, I am wondering in what kind of practical ways have you been leveraging AI tooling, and what tools do you find to be most helpful? Thank you!
Dead on. Vision will attract a bunch of apple die hards that haven’t spent a few years with the quest already and realized why vr still has huge issues road does not fox at all.

Namely it’s not AR…

I bought the first Cities: Skylines because I'm a massive SimCity fan. Ever since SimCity 2000 that I received for my birthday as a child (in a bundle with Theme Hospital). But the text and UI were way too small for me. So I couldn't play the game. I even created my own (very simple) mod [1], but I never got around to playing the game. I hope the developers will address this issue and implement proper UI / text scaling.

”Show Reader” in iOS does a great job of showing you the actual content without having to interact with all that garbage — I presume the “reader” functionality in most other browsers does too.
I have a different perception; Apple Vision Pro is not the MVP for AR but just the next iteration of these devices.

The original MVP for AR was Microsofts HoloLens and especially HoloLens 2. The later one has many of the AVP features already in place (hand and eye tracking, spatial awareness etc.) and has proven on a professional level to be a useful tool.
Sometimes you just have to destroy the site to meet your OKR goals. Who hasn't done it once or twice in their career.
I'll never understand this Perl readability sentiment.

Any time I've ever tried to look into <insert random open source C project>, I typically find the most esoteric and tersely named functions inhumanly imaginable. Variables like gt, pn, r8, _on, etc. I mean terse to a point of cruelty. And yet these projects often have hundreds of contributors who are happy to gloss over said unreadability, or at least forgive it more than Perl.
The Prisoners Who Debate Ivy League Students and Won
A lot of people in these comments don't seem to be really engaging with what was said. The unified memory architecture is fantastic, everything is in one place, easy and fast to access, up to the limit of the size of memory and compute you can fit on one chip it's massively advantageous. There is obviously a point where you reach the limit of how much you can pack in, but the disadvantages of having to shovel data back and forth mean you need a really powerful GPU before it becomes worth having.

But let's assume you really want more compute Apple has to first design a standalone GPU, then it has to do a PCI or CXL core or some custom interconnect, then it has to redesign it's OS for non-uniform memory doing all that fun stuff hiding the memory communication, then it has to add the primitives to it's languages for you to manage memory (because to get performance you have to actively design for it) and then you need to get all your performance critical applications to re-write their stacks with this in mind.

It's a massive lift! And for what? Only Desktop can take advantage of it, and in Apple's product line only the Mac Pro. And that's assume you execute well and the device ends up more capable than just using the SoC. And all of this we're talking about on top of the massive lift Apple literally just finished moving all their products onto Apple silicon. It's just a crazy ask for a v1 of a product.
Yep, I’ve had multiple reviews removed for being ‘off-topic’. No recourse there, I tried debating airbnb support for a while on it, but eventually gave up.
Its easier to collect info on users via a mobile app than via a webpage. My guess is that they're simply trying to increase what they know on their users which is the data they can monetize with their ad customers (with some small print to not get them in conflict with data protection laws).
I am not sure what you are getting at. Epigenetic modification of the genome (methylation, acylation, TAD formation, etc) is not gene editing, but it is most certainly modification of the genome.
On Constructed Sentience and Simulated Personalities, Part 1
Who else has used a vr headset for programming? That may be my biggest use case for this. Currently I need to deal with low fidelity headsets connected to my MacBook and it's hard to read code that I'm writing with the quest.

I really hope this will be my solution, a true VR computer like the Simula One (which I feel like this is competing against).
Not always, though. For instance it won't work on YouTube ads. I'd call it a hack at best.
The Google Glass mention brings back memories of that launch. The tech circles were abuzz with how revolutionary that device was going to be. It would change productivity and humanity forever!

Some people really did wear them everywhere. It was weird. And quickly stigmatized as I recall.

I don't think this is a necessary condition for AR. Just take the computer off and put it down. Or better, don't wear it to begin with.
> * Hardware became far more complex. A modern video card or anything else is its own computer, with a very uncomfortable amount of state and access to the host. If your video card driver does something wrong and crashes it's by no means a given that the situation is recoverable by rebooting the driver -- the video card itself may be left in some weird state.

The rest of your points make sense but I don't understand fully how this is an argument for monoliths? Isn't recovery from an unknown state an equally hard problem in both cases?
> JavaScript is fine

What languages to you have experience with?

The article mentions some alternatives, like Elm, and I'd be hard pressed that people who used those (say Elm) effectively still believe JS is fine.
Look at the annotation classes code? That’s how I do it. It can’t be anywhere else.

Perfect example. A state the size of a European country probably with more diversity and lifestyle than one too, but you imagine you will be persecuted?
Thanks, this helps clarify it a lot. I went and looked up a few more articles, and I think I still remain confused a bit about the second quote you list -- specifically what it means to use "a trademark as a trademark", as it seems like the decision written by Justice Kagan hinges on this concept.
I guess regulators could also antitrust Google in a balancing act.
> Hear yourself man, you’re saying be able to look at iPad apps on a big monitor is the killer app for Apple Vision Pro.

That’s not what the person said, but also it might actually be the “killer app” for the vision pro.

Having a large, high-fidelity monitor anywhere you go would be extremely useful. Maybe useful enough to get people to keep coming back to the Vision Pro after the novelty wears off.
funny to see juggling GUFs on hacker news, and a reference to the IJDb.
