This argument holds no water at all. You've modeled the situation incorrectly.

The shape of labor is not the same, today, as it was 50 years ago, and the project of technology is not to automate things we were doing 50 years ago. Let's see. 50 years ago my family had a black and white television and a rotary phone. Has telecommunications and media changed at all in the last 50 years which might have created not just new work but dozens and dozens of new industries? Why, yes. Yes that has happened.

You must be pretty sad that the Unabomber is dead, because, like him, you don't see the value of new technology. Okay, that's fine. But it seems like your arugment falls apart for anyone who does appreciate the value of DNA testing, MRI scans (which identified my wife's life threatening condition), the Davinci robotic surgery system (which saved my wife's life), etc.

We are having this conversation on Hacker News. If you read Hacker News, then you are already undermining your back-to-nature street cred, pal.

Anyway, I've never been on a bullshit project. And the reason we hire engineers is because important work needs to be done. For instance, I'm working on a system that brings medical care to impoverished people in the middle of nowhere. No bullshit there. Another client is an insurance software company. You don't think people need insurance? You don't want them to be able to buy it online because "50 years ago" it was perfectly acceptable to use a telephone to call an insurance broker? Another client creates test tools. You think testing software is bullshit?

You have a fluid rhetorical style that speaks on some cleverness. Imagine if you put that cleverness to work on something other than bullshiting about this topic!
It is my understanding that the entire cost of the Reddit API infrastructure was in the 10M/Year according to the CEO.

And yet they wanted 20M/Year just from the Apollo dev.

RIF dev said his numbers were in the same ballpark. So with those two alone they were looking at getting 4x the cost of running the API.

Asking for money is reasonable. The devs themselves stated that. What’s unreasonable is both the amount of money and the way the change has been rolled out.

This is clearly a move to remove some of the big 3rd party competitors from the scene without explicitly stating that they want to remove 3rd party apps.
Yeah (and separately the DNS servers used by their Cloud DNS service are currently hanging off googledomains.com).
You are incredibly wrong about this. Consent for data processing is the meat & potatoes of both GDPR and the largest enforcement actions that have happened through it. The delete button revoked consent.

Yes, I totally agree with you and the Almadovar poster is another good example. The earlier artwork just brought to my mind that maybe porn is age old thing and it’s interesting that if it survives for long enough it gets this aura of acceptability.

Either way I think social media platforms should tune their filters to each society they operate in.
Great to see this! However, I see Windows is supported only via WSL. If this is to be adopted by the mainstream then perhaps native Windows support becomes paramount at some point.
No one from the next generation cares about your “productivity”. They care about the net impact of your existence. What is your vaunted productivity creating? How does that look in 50 years?

For many of us, looking in that particular mirror can be an unpleasant experience.
Misrepresented and made up discussions with Apollo app creator. Then caught red handed when the creator released recordings of those calls.

And personally, yes, I came across accounts that were doing this. Seemed like they were mostly based outside of the USA, and the exploitation is usually something along the lines of someone using existing porn, advertising a series of link shorteners to access said porn, then profiting from the ad clicks. This is probably not profitable for anyone in a developed country, and is also probably only profitable due to child porn being outright banned from most of the internet, with no free access to material, people will jump through hoops to access said material. I'd been reporting those accounts for years to no avail until recently. Instagram has the same issue. I gave up on reporting on Instagram as I couldn't stomach seeing this stuff and my reports never had any results. The people sharing this stuff on Instagram fall into a few categories, occasionally parents, and other adults selling access to pictures/videos of their young children and toddlers in bikinis, something that would otherwise not be sexual, except that they are selling to an audience that is sexualizing it. Instagram will not take any of this down as it's not technically nudity. Maybe it's changed though. The other class of abusers are usually non USA based, and they'll exploit Instagram live to share, multiple broadcasters will be streaming, but one will be broadcasting hardcore child porn. You can only report one host of the stream, and by the time anyone looks at it, presumably, they've switched to another account to stream. It will usually be another broadcaster that was on the previous stream. I couldn't continue spending time reporting this stuff due to the hardcore nature of it. Instagram really needs to fix their reporting and allow reporting of every single broadcaster that is part of a live stream.
This is only a guess, but I get the impression Album Archive is some sort of aggregator service. The original Blogger images appear to still be stored in Blogger's own media manager.

For example, many images referenced from Blogger posts contain links with URLs like https://1.bp.blogspot.com/... further strengthening the case that these images originate from Blogger, not the Archive service.

So in summary, my guess is that shutting down Album Archive will not affect Blogger media files.

Another case for this conclusion, is that it seems totally insane to delete all of Blogger's media files, and not inform Blogger users directly, but instead do it through some obscure Archive service notice.

Would be nice to get an official confirmation on this, but let's say we can make an educated guess that people's Blogger photos are probably safe.
That's fine, so just make it a right-click menu service item versus automatically enabling it globally for every image across the entire OS by default for everyone. I know lots of security folks who find it useful storing malware code as an image for reference since that was relatively safe to keep around since it couldn't be accidentally executed and/or being flagged by anti-virus apps. Suddenly macOS was reading that code and introducing a whole new avenue for security vulnerabilities.

Punchcard reader to control LISP in the cloud
It's funny to read this comment in the context of users who are angry they cannot impose their pro-pornography views on the creators of the model. How dare they obey different morals! How dare they have different views! My views are more important and thus they should do what I want!

>Their pure and morally superior ends thus justify the means, coercion being the least intrusive and oppressive of those, and paling in comparison to other acceptable methods, such as public shaming, ostracising, and even violence.

You yourself hit about 80% of your "ends justifications" in your shameless attacks on folks who don't want pornography coming out of the LLM they're using at work. The irony is unreal.
>In the end, people with higher quality demands will pay a significant, dis-proportionate premium. So, you can tap into that, which means the premium tier essentially cross-subsidizes the cheap tier. Everybody angry at this practice needs to understand that they couldn't just sell the premium tier for $150. They'd need to sell it for $250, or whatever the weighted mean is. Worse, they'd likely sell fewer items in total, so $280 or some such is more likely to reach the same total profit.

See:

Another example is selling books for cheaper in countries with lower incomes. Yet another example is countries charging more for access to national parks to people from richer countries than poorer countries. And another example is using coupons to get discounts, or student discounts, etc.

It is not a perfect mechanism, and sometimes the subsidies are not from and to the populations that would make it "fair", but on a population wide level, it works pretty well.

> written in Rust

What? From my knowledge Jakt is written in C++ and Jakt itself, not Rust.

Sure the first implementation was written in Rust but it was quickly replaced when Adreas took over the project.
When I was noodling with the Traveling Salesman problem, I was sure that what I really needed was to spend X% of available resources on the Big Gamble (a low probability algorithm with fast results), Y% on a common heuristic and the rest on the honest work of plowing through the linear equations progressively culling the remaining scenarios that need to be tested. I had limited success with this though. I just haven’t done enough LP to make anything noteworthy, and it was a tool sharpening exercise, which made me a little more effective at more mundane batch processing tasks, not a great mind of NP-completeness.
Huh. Just yesterday at the local Pride parade event, I met a guy, looked familiar. "You don't remember me. You bought me lunch when I was new in town, sat with me, listened to me. Gave me $40. I remember you."

Instead of homeless, now he's employed and has a girlfriend. She's a nice lady! Chatted with my wife while we caught up.

Anyway, I felt happy about that. Happy the rest of the day. Nothing more for me in it at all. Kind of the opposite.
This is mostly because Ladybird is just a way to test LibWeb and other components outside of SerenityOS, it also purposefully doesn't have a lot of usability features and instead is packed with debug features. I assume that in the future somebody will build a proper browser UI with native support for Windows.
Thanks for the video, I really hope ranked choice will gain in popularity!
I wouldn't say sequential. Maybe at implementations are sequential and state based because games need to pause the process on a frame refresh.

A* is naturally recursive [1] and so can be parallelized as you go further.

[1] unless I'm mistaking some other algorithm for A*, each new recursive call of all the neighbours can be started on a different thread or node.
Switched from Plex to jellyfin and it's great.

I like to save websites as "apps" on my devices and use it that way. I do generally prefer web-apps I suppose but I also greatly appreciate the distraction reduction of NOT being in a browser, as the internet has infinite distractions.
If you use DigitalOcean, setting up a registry is two clicks, and CI is an out of the box feature for many CI providers, e.g. [0]. If it's not, or you're using a provider where you need to do more work, well you need to do that work for any other deployment method too.

I'm not sure about how atomics having the performance of loads mean they will scale (and to be honest i doubt they could have the perf of loads on modern architecture, otherwise why would e.g. Intel not implement them to be faster - but lets pretend it is possible)

The fine article shows that a single lock xadd can destroy perfs on some x86 systems and explain that it is due to cache line bouncing. You would get the same effect with loads: if the loaded data is RO or mostly RO it will of course scale fine. It won't scale as soon as it starts bouncing too much.
Sure, but having to keep track of all things the vendor does against my interest and disable them every time they add a new one is a mental burden I'd rather not deal with.

There definitely was a period where AMD was shipping three-core Phenom IIs with a functional fourth core (demand was higher for the three-core SKUs than their actual defect rate appeared to allow), but I don’t know how plentiful fully-functional one’s actually were. And it was never guaranteed.

Great. Let's break this asymmetry by making AR devices ubiquitous and giving most people those recordings. Would also help with police problems in many countries.
What you’ve got there is a list of accounts that access reddit from behind a NAT with a few sock puppets thrown in for good measure.
For what it is worth, starting out with "for fuck's sake" makes me think you are an asshole. It starts a combative relationship. Your comments work well without that. Better, I'd say.

I provided the original apparently shitty link (as measured by upvotes to your comment) to accomplish a secondary goal of introducing those who may enjoy it to the super minimal aggregator. I thought I was helping expose more fun stuff in the single submission.

You are absolutely right that the primary source is a much better link to provide. I'll do better in the future.
I use findroid on android. I was using the jellyfin android client but it was missing some features when it comes to HDR and Dolby Digital (Atmos) audio.

Findroid seems to solve these issues so I'm quite happy with it.

Of course, these are open source software solutions so as long as they are under active development then I expect for the software to get better.
I’d be interested to know what you find terrible about the PLEX UX. I’ve been a happy user for years and have found the user interface to be reasonably intuitive. Perhaps dense in places, but certainly not terrible in my opinion.
Really, no one cares about your earnings or your gaming. The question you should be asking yourself is what you are leaving in your wake? What are you doing to make the world as good as or maybe slightly better than when you showed up? What do you produce to offset your resource consumption and environmental footprint?

I started asking myself these questions in my thirties, and because of that I now write software and farm organic coffee, cacao, avacados, and a handful of other permaculture crops on a small scale. The farming makes zero money, but it is worthwhile, and I strive to create a space that benefits not only myself, but my community.
I don't think being perpetually reactive is the right mentality. First it's esoteric. You need to know which menu it's in, and what the setting is called.

And how does this scale? As more of those feature come, and you cannot opt-out of them, even as a paying customer.

Plex has a horrible report with me, and though I still use it, I'm tempted to try other apps now.
The USA is a signatory to the Madrid Treaty Protocol governing international intellectual property rights, but never bothered to ratify it. What might a different country who has bothered to ratify the treaty and been subjected to litigation and trade enbargos at the behest of America maybe think about the behavioral example? There's just one example of a international famous trademark enforcement against American interests which is Societé Des Bains De Mer, the owners of the Monte Carlo Casino in Monaco in the 9th District in 2001. Just that solitary case of reciprocal enforcement.
> I do wonder what's so wrong with FF that nobody wants to base their fork on it.

It's compatibility. I use Firefox now it less exclusively, and sometimes I'll need to go on some "normie" website to book a flight or something and the Continue button will be broken or some shit. Seems like lots of web devs will just make the sure works in Chrome and call it a day.

Depends on the location of the camera. Three went up on the street near me, since its by a high school and I guess they monitor traffic or something. But it can clearly see into private yards and it does offend me. If I lived nearer to the cameras and was impacted I would try to ensure my bits and tackle were visible to the cameras from my bathroom window every day.
I agree that proofs assume for readability that the reader fills in some blanks. I might even go so far as to say that this informality can be dangerous.

Still, the question is, are there "folk theorems", where no proof exist which could be written down fully formal?

The hardware seems nice, but to me it is a huge red flag that (1) the communication between the sensor and the phone is encrypted, so that no third-party app can ever be developed, and (2) it seems that your health data is uploaded to the "cloud" without any opt-out or possibility for local operation.
"In the videos filmed at Jean-Georges, Mr. Roche looked intoxicated, waving his hands, cursing and referring to jurors as “idiots.”"

To be fair, this attitude seems to be common within every in-group I was a part of. The out-group is always 'stupid' and at best needs to be protected from themselves and at worst 'its their own damn fault'. The how it was obtained does not automatically dismiss the honesty under influence impact.

Patterson/Hennessy on Computer Organization and Hennessy/Patterson on Computer Architecture are considered foundational canon.

The implied expectation underlying "beginner-friendly" seems naively misguided; it's an advanced undergrad computer/software engineering topic in the most permissive sense, and the blog's prose appears to have been tailored with that minimum target audience in mind.
The people hacking this and those behind the reddit blackout are not interested in preventing censorship or government collusion for these activities.. in fact, I would argue thats likely the MOTIVE, because its no longer free and anonymous.
So, silent propellers?
I think the more accurate way to interpret that proverb is: The pursuit of power corrupts.

It's a warning that if your goal is having power and nothing else then you are susceptible to corruption. It's also a warning that having power tends to reveal how useful it is and thus tempt you to schedule more of it.
A hole at any of those points could represent either a one or zero

That's not quite correct. There were twelve rows: 0-9, 11 and 12. A hole in row 0 was a zero, etc. Holes in 12 + 1 was an 'A', 11 + 1 was 'J', and 0 + 2 was 'S'. Other combinations were for punctuation.
So basically – cybercrime and extortion is perfectly fine as long as it doesn't affect me. If it does, everyone must be held accountable.
Temporarily complying then reverting the censorship in 2021 then suing the Indian gov in 2022 is not "capitulation".

> Proving things with formal calculi still relies on something like creativity, which itself isn't captured by a precise algorithm, similar to informal proofs.

That's because first-order logic (and any system that extends it) is formally undecidable, so there can be no algorithm that, for a given statement, determines whether it is a valid theorem. If you restrict yourself to propositional logic, you gain decidability but, in the general case, it's still extremely inefficient (unless P=NP).

Of course, in order to prove these things, you have to formally develop what logic is.
