This isn't exactly new, goes back to as far as [1] 2007 on Ars, and they reported something similar from the same startup [2]. I do wish them success though. Even a Single TB disc would be 10 to 40 times the current Blu-Ray.

It would be nice if they could do a mini cartridge version ( 6 Folio Mini Disc inside a Cartridge ) like Zip drive with 2TB for consumer. Unless you are a Data Hoarder 99.9% of the consumer could have their own backup down with a few of these cartridge. And in theory they should last a lot longer than HDD or even SSD.

Really wish this isn't a pipe dream.

At what point do you say "this has changed so much that it is no longer necessary to abide by the original licence"?

Questions like these are why Imaginary Property is such a horrible quagmire. If you look closely enough, everything is a derivative work, and recent developments with things like LLMs has given this topic prominence. Everyone has absorbed countless amounts of copyrighted material in the course of their education, and can make use of it even if they don't remember the author.
This headline is misleading by omission, to (nearly) the point of being false.

Context: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/8_December_2020_incident

tl;dr:

- The primary reason for their arrest wasn't the Linux/encryption tools.

- They were under investigation / suspicion after volunteering for a Kurdish militant group.

Secondarily to the above, the prosecution used their encryption/etc, (in a case of bad logic) as further post-hoc evidence or cause for suspicion.

In my opinion, omitting the primary causes here is intentionally muddying the issue, and making it sound like encryption itself was the cause.

*Caveats:*

- Yes, the prosecution clearly don't understand the technology, and obviously don't care to know.

- Yes, they are implying that use of encryption itself is due to "needing to hide something".

- Yes, they're implicating innocent (AKA "normal") use of encryption as something bad, and that's a problem.
The problem with relying on fancy IDE to untangle your classes is that it breaks on GitHub. Also it's harder to discuss snippets of code asynchronously.

People like to think CBV offer a lot of free things but they miss the trade off. CBV makes it easier to write code but harder to read the code. CBV should only be used for the simplest of cases IMO.
Do a lot of people really use the UI of any of the cloud services? Most people want managed infra, which means at least cli scripts if not terraform.

Not arguing the Azure UI is amazing, but it’s low on my list of concerns personally for cloud services.
It really is. Have you been in New York? In the area that this is being implemented in, you can absolutely survive without ever setting foot in a car.

Other cities should have been planned around density. Instead we have suburban hellscapes where kids can’t be kids and there’s no real community. The car has been the single most destructive piece of mass-adopted tech for urban planning and lifestyle.

If we have to start new cities to replace the disasters we created, better to rip off the bandaid now. Sucks that we used some of the best land in the country.
You do realize the "AI" we're talking about here is just LLMs, right?

Language is a huge part of being human, so that's a good elements but:

1. There's no evidence that these LLMs have any sort of actual understanding of what they produce.
2. Being human is a lot more than just linguistic capability. We are embodied in a certain way, can interact with environments, have rich, multi-sensory experiences etc.

tbh I think anyone that believes AGI can arise from an LLM is extremely naive and has basically no idea of the history of this track of research or how it works.

To assert that LLMs will be capable of achieving consciousness is equivalent to asserting that human consciousness is reducible to statistical inference, which is palpably not true. (see. e.g. deductive logic).

The only reason people even fall into the trap of thinking computers are remotely close to getting to AGI is because it became very popular to reason about the brain using analogies from computer science in the 50s, despite the fact that this was completely unjustified, and people glob on to the metaphors and then have the mypoia to actually think the human brain (which is exceedingly complex) is reducible to a freakin' von neuman architecture, lol.

Biological systems and inorganic systems are fundamentally different.
Windows/client AV tools have a who-watches-the-watchers problem. If you're trying to detect threats that exploit OS, you need to be even lower level. But if you're lower, then you're an even more inviting target.

Unfortunately, add on that no customer makes a profit off their IT security org. Which disincentivizes excellence and incentivizes feature check-boxing at the lowest price point.

Which ultimately produces a highly privileged piece of software developed on budget salaries.

One reason MS security was a game changer (once the company got off its butt and admitted security was an existential threat to their OS sales) -- they could afford to burn great magnitudes of money to deliver.

(No offense intended to any of the amazingly brilliant non-MS Windows AV folks out there)
> Like having preferred pronouns in your email signature is valid, but listing you walk in the light of Christ would not fly

That's false equivalence. Listing you don't believe in God or insults against religion are also not valid in email signatures. Pronouns are valid because you may need to refer to them in the third person.
> And those NSFW posts are far from just porn. It's frequently news (especially related to war), the "vice" subreddits (cigars, guns), mental health subreddits, ect.

And for the longest time, many subs based their flairs around the NSFW tag combined with some CSS hacks, especially for subs based around TV shows wanting to add spoiler warnings. Some subs never bothered to update to the new system and still use this.
YouTube is incredibly crowded these days. There’s probably better places to pursue those goals.
Most people don't realize that the value of Reddit is in reddit itself - i.e the place where most people are, which also happens to be a giant echochamber. Everything else doesn't matter.
I expect we'll see more people take up TK's manifesto if generational AI starts taking over jobs and causing displacement in the next few years. Technology won't even give other people the power to become the enemy, it will be the direct enemy.
This all might be true - but despite that, it takes half an hour to drive to the airport, and an hour and a half by subway + train.

And for family groups the public transport is more expensive, even when including parking (or paying an Uber).
This is a completely misguided analysis. First of all, there is nothing in the M series architecture that's going to avoid pipeline stalls, let aloe huge 70ms graphics pipeline stalls. As I've explained above, games keep multiple frame pipelines in flight at once, so you don't have these kind of issues unless there is a scheduling or I/O issue. There is no advantage here.

The only advantage is that the transfer from GPU to CPU is faster in terms of latency. This doesn't cause pipeline stalls, because as I've explained above, frames are kept in flight, so latency is not critical. At the same time, modern CPU-GPU interconnects have similar bandwidth to RAM.

Additionally, you're not the first person to have thought about frame pacing. Dozens of reviewers have full frame pacing graphs with the frame times of every frame, as well as 0.1% lows, and we simply don't see what you're describing. 100ms+ frames are not a problem on modern games and modern hardware, and when they are, it's because of some blocking read to storage or to some scheduling issue, not because of CPU/GPU speed.

The impact of link speed on 0.1% low framerates has already been investigated, and it's minimal, and there isn't even an advantage here.

I guess I think of the Web 2.0 transition as the technology change in the web stack where sites started to become JavaScript apps rather than server rendered pages which were basically the same tech as 1990s CGI.

The change you’re talking about in 2002 or so was hugely significant but I feel it was all about wider adoption and emergence of social media (blogs and then MySpace) on the web which had previously been limited to the pre-web AOL, Compuserve, BBS world. Tech wise the web stack was still the same except being faster to access over ADSL rather than modems.

Anyway that’s my geriatric millennial take having used AOL over a modem in the late 1990s then earning money as a web dev in college from 2000 or so.

I hope we can at least agree that Web 3 has nothing to do with the Web!
Sorry, I forgot about carpet bombs and nukes. You're right, dronebombing a terrorist and killing an innocent child in the process is net actually good because even worse bombs existed and were used sometimes in the past.

Everything the US government and military does is good, and Ted Kaczynski was bad, especially the terrible things he wrote. I promise I will buy more of these new Apple products, in resistance of Mr. Kaczynski's evil message. *I place my hand on my chest patriotically.* I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.
Azure has this too, you can have what they somewhat confusingly call subscriptions, which are logical units with their own billing, limits and permissions inside and organizations account.
Could you provide links to references and sources for Lemmy's operator doing these things, so we are not just consuming heresay.

I would really appreciate it.
The only achievement here is for the lawyers.
So these HFT guys doing is daytrade with options? That's quite risky.....if you are not with the trend you may blow up account quickly
I also came here to say this. Thank you! It’s a slur and not everyone seems to realize that…
They profiled him based on the bombs, which had deliberate crudeness and mistakes as red herrings. They hadn't seen the manifesto at that point.
What points resonate with you? With as much sincerity as I can express, I’ve gotta ask: why aren’t you living in the woods if you think the guy who said that industrial society was a mistake “had some good points”?
The GP didn't say that though. They said they were already considering replacing one vendor with another, prior to this incident.

As I understood it, the calculus was 'do nothing and keep the current barracuda stuff for a while longer or find another vendor and replace the barracuda stuff?' Now the former option is gone, and the calculus is 'replace current barracuda stuff with barracuda or another vendor?' So if you were already considering switching vendors, now is an opportune time to do so. You're going to be paying the eng/ops cost now anyhow, and as many in this thread have pointed out, one or two fairly off-the-shelf hw appliances are not exactly a big spend.

I thought this was a call for Standard ML or something a rather on the Erlang VM.

(I really enjoyed this article though!)

As far as I know theres a few implementations of ML like languages on the Erlang VM

caramel and alpaca are worth checking out.

Gleam doesn't look like a ML lang but has a lot of the same semantics of a ML lang
I am curious whether you actually live in NYC.

In the parts of the city this article is talking about, there's no free parking during busy times. Those lanes are reserved for either special parking situations (teachers, police), business (loading/unloading trucks, taxi stands) or turn into driving lanes. It happens that on Sundays and evenings, that capacity isn't needed and is given over to parking.

30 years in NYC, I didn't ever feel this resentfulness that your post implies. I didn't have a car but I benefited from taxis, ubers, deliveries, ability for people to visit, etc etc etc. I assume that people who chose to drive into the city do so because it's their best option. For my lifestyle in NYC, I could always walk to work and taxi/train to get laid, but that's not everyone's situation.

The self-righteous hatred of cars and roads and parking is weird.

This is the abusive relationship that is all major web services. They succeed at the expense of their users. See “enshittification” for more.
I mean, you could pay to remove the ads. 70% of it goes to creators anyway.
Which ideas? Everyone keeps saying this but I’d love specifics.
I think the point being made by using "Microsoft" here was basically a stand in for "other random people".

I.e anything 'cloud'.
Which pronouns are allowed and which aren't? I forgot.

This shit isn't freedom, its requirement to demonstrate loyalty to ideology. This person used the prescribed methods to demonstrate loyalty to a different ideology, and the cult came after them. That is all that happened here.
If true, then fuck you France.
One problem that I encounter while doing this is that you get distracted when you get somewhere and forget to go back to the place you are supposed to be tidying. I solve this by leaving my glasses at the origin, and the need to read things will drag me back
I mean if you're deriving that much value without actually paying the platform through one of their methods, ads, you should probably consider their other method, premium for $13.
What if we refer to them based on the grammatical rules of the English language, is that OK?

There's nothing interesting about the question, it's cut and dry, youre just pretending it's not.
This isn't actually true. Looking at aveeages will in fact reflect correctly on average frame staleness over a sampling period. A single frame that's 5x too long or 4 frames that are 2x too long have the same impact on the average delta of frame staleness on the total sum.

Think of it like Little's law in queing theory , it's better to simply just look at different percentiles, like 99 or 99.9th. The average framerate correctly indicates the average staleness.
I firmly believe that we are severely underestimating the problem space. Given there are a multitude of scientific areas focusing on human nature, and even then, they've shown difficulty on explaining each of its parts.

Look, we can make assumptions given a much simpler technology, and the outcomes of our past selves. But, while the physics for those wings was pretty much good enough at the time, the aforementioned scientific areas aren't. And we know it.
You shouldn’t have hope. I tell all of my younger relatives to “grind LeetCode and work for a FAANG” (tm) r/cscareerquestions.

I didn’t purposefully set out to work at BigTech, it kind of fell into my lap. I was also 46 before I landed at one. A returning intern that graduated in 2022 that I mentored had an offer that was the same as what I was only $20K less than I was making two years earlier.

If I were starting out now, I definitely would have been preparing for coding interviews. I have a lot more flexibility and experience at 49.

There's an argument against service layers in Django. The recommendation is to use instance and manager methods.

I vaguely associate the 2.0 moniker with:

- arbitrarily interactive web apps (GMail, blogs both hosted and otherwise, early social media that didn’t quite mirror BBSes but didn’t diverge much either)

- design trends where web interfaces mimicked desktop interfaces (ahem, “lickable” buttons were a whole thing)

- a whole lot of “anything goes” from the implied “1.0”, but the web was being treated as a serious platform not just Geocities and a few incumbents

That last point really took from well before mobile apps business did. And that’s when the web really started sucking hard.
Maybe the first thing you should build is a way to source business problems to solve. Then once you've built that, your its ideal customer.

> The first phase of the domination of the economy over social life brought into the definition of all human realization the obvious degradation of being into having. The present phase of total occupation of social life by the accumulated results of the economy leads to a generalized sliding of having into appearing, from which all actual “having” must draw its immediate prestige and its ultimate function. At the same time all individual reality has become social reality directly dependent on social power and shaped by it. It is allowed to appear only to the extent that it is not.
> Yes, it does. And the relationship is causal.

If the relationship is causal, why are spread out areas with less dense populations which rely heavily on cars, like the Dallas or Houston or LA areas, so congested?

If you think your opinion is backed by data, I would love to see it.
I did call him out. He knew he was not making the sale on price factor so he became nonchalant. Yeah, this is what it will cost you on GCP. I think he had given up.
It’s absolutely insane to see many parts of Reddit in open revolt. I think this is the worst it’s ever been. Worse than 2015, 2018, 2020…
> X-rays confirmed a sprain in Gus's wrist

Eh, ok.

Yet more of the laziest cynical AI generated garbage. AI winter can’t come soon enough.

Seriously I see nothing here of interest to a healthcare professional.

> The ICD-10-CM coding system is a remarkable catalogue of every imaginable medical condition, injury, disease, and even the seemingly improbable events that can befall a human being.

The thing with ICD is while it has an odd array of oddly specific and absurd codes it misses sufficient detail for some very basic common diagnoses.
none of this will have any impact. the subs need reddit as much as reddit needs them. collectively sure the subs can control reddit; for a short time. but new ones will appear. and the subs make money by being online so none of them will risk pledging more than 2 days
Could custom elements help in your case?
Many people quit Elm after kernel code was removed, without knowing ports are not the only FFI option.
So they're going to force them open, right?
I have written patches for countless applications I use. I'm not denying GitHub is good or valuable, but luckily we live in a world of gray areas and nuance.

I'm getting a bit frustrated. The proposition is really, despite how everyone wants to twist it, quite simple. I spend my life on OSS, I haven't had a paycheck in 5+ years. I'm sick and tired of pouring my expertise and knowledge and investment into platforms that I can't fix. I use closed-source firmware, and that's it. My "unfree" predicates for my NixOS machines contain nothing. That's by design after 25+ years of using computers and applying the same philosophy. I build software and adopt software for the long-term, and every time I break my "okay, this time" rule, I get burned. Case in point, the GitHub issues *that don't exist anymore because GH memory-holed them*

And yes, I spent less time moving my shit to sourcehut and getting CI going there than I did spending additional days working around GitHub. Obviously this isn't feasible for a large project overnight, but responsible projects are absolutely entertaining conversations about it.
sox has a lot of functionality besides playing an audio file.

Like synthesizers to generate audio, filters and so on.
Yeah, being required to cover your hair because you're a woman is very misogynistic.
Moderators aren't paid though, why would they be risking any money?

But they don’t. People ask to opt in to it. And that is exactly how human trials work in the medical test. So your analogy is apt.

Are you saying Mercedes process is better? Where they haven’t done extensive testing and have a brand new drug that has actually never been properly tested in the wild?

I’m confused what your point is.
I've been getting more and more active on the largest instance of lemmy - https://lemmy.ml - and its crazy how many popular subreddit names have been created on lemmy.ml in the last week.

I'm not sure if the philosophy of the fediverse really meshes with the idea of social media. It feels like if it caught on it would push people farther and farther into smaller echo chambers (and that seems bad!). However, adopting one large instance seems like a drop in replacement for reddit (and the least painful for the average joe).
oh i'm sorry, was i supposed to treat "the AI doom is more serious and immediate than the climate crisis" like informed discussion ? because that's honestly the dumbest fuckin' thing i've read on this site in a long time. and as you note, i've been here a long time.

no person on earth -- who is informed by anything aside from safeguarding or expanding their own capital -- would make that argument.
The requirement to list pronouns is a political statement, hazing, a thinly veiled requirement to show allegiance to the orthodoxy of a cult.
You'll always keep running into security issues AND the need for moderation at the heart of any community.

It is possible to actually solve the security issues technically, but that is likely a generation away. Until then, the fact that the servers AND the users computer are insecure lead almost inevitably to walled gardens, and avoiding innovation.

Thus there will be centralized locii of control for the foreseeable future. We can't democratize the way we use the internet back into a true commons until usable secure general purpose computing becomes widely available and adopted.

We had it (secure general purpose computing) in the early 1980s with floppy based computers and dialup. I thought we'd get it back by 2030, but I'm not as hopeful any more.
Agree, so that’s at least possible because Tesla allow people to share. Literally no other company has anything like that kind of data in the public domain. Except that stupid “collision self reporting” register California keeps for self driving systems.

I work in consulting and I refuse to do “staff augmentation” type work where there is a predefined bucket of money and no goals or deadlines at the beginning. I also jump on projects where there is a short deadline and reasonable scope. It forces focus. I also try to jump on any project during pregnancy-sales so I can help shape the scope and deadlines.
It's going to be hard to have a date/time format when no standardized date/time lib.
That's my assumption. They'll just force open all the big ones, with or without demodding them all.

No way they let something as big as funny and videos(among many others) just shut down for days...
An enormous amount of bad behaviour has been seemingly "normalised" in a relatively short period of time. Whether this new brand of "hypernormalisation" is short-term or long-term is still unknown, IMHO.
They should fire that incompetent CEO. It‘s sad that bad management is never punished.
"They" routinely close or cordon off the roads & sections. They also suspend license privilege (obviously as allowed under laws & regulations).

This would be no different than cancelling the whole train or train route; & stopping or cancelling one's entrance pass to train station.
There is no tech secret sauce to reddit. Reddit is a good experience because of unpaid moderators who care a lot. There is a reason quality of content on reddit is higher than similar websites like quora.
