I used to think reddit was cool, more intellectual, more refined as a social network, now it's more toxic than Twitter ever was, (not saying there weren't toxic sides) and it's because of the war started by Steve Huffman. Single-handedly if reddit dies, it rests on recent decisions that he won't back down from. There's also a LOT of eerie similarities to Digg -> Reddit migration of 2010.
Exactly. In other words, is there anything you can do right now as an individual to protect yourself? Nope, not really.

You'll have to get involved in policy, period.
Do entertain us with your view of the world of operating systems, please. Windows is not the only OS around, this point is completely irrelevant. Anybody can install anything on Linux/Macos/Android system and the heavens did not fall yet.

> why buy

It does meet my requirements, that’s why. I’ve never said it doesn’t.
It is the case if the balls are being put back. As you play more games, you would figure out the proportion of red and green balls in the second urn. Therefore, you would figure out which is the better colour.

Repeated games under epistemic uncertainty actually allows you to get an edge by extracting information and reducing that uncertainty, in comparison to a game which is guaranteed to have no edge for you.
That was a beautiful read, thanks very much.
When the game is repeated, does the second urn always have the same distribution of balls?
ORMs are great to spare you from writing heaps of error-prone boilerplate mapping code.

Which is kinda what they are for, that's why they're called "Object-Relational Mappers". Not "Object-Relational Query Generators". Because they suck at the latter.
I can believe it, after all, I ingest most of my water in a mixture with roasted ground beans from the rainforest.
Spez would be done with this now if he would have just shut the fuck up. Someone so easy to provoke only will encourage more.

Just think if the loudest voice in this had been one of the mods like the antiwork thing.

This is chess not checkers and spez is playing tic tac toe
By that logic you would expect banks to create infinite money and drive interest rates down to 0.00001%. the fact that doesn't happen should hint that you've misunderstood how banks work
If you say prisons "suck at" rehabilitating people it suggests it's something they want to do but are not succeeding at. However, there are a lot of governors and prison officials who reject that notion as namby-pamby and see the institution of prisons as purely punitive or retributive with no real duty to rehabilitate offenders.
Thank goodness for the government requiring ID for everything. There wouldn't be anything with life-altering consequences to leak.
I see moderators giving in, but each forum becomes basically /r/worldpolitics where any post goes so long as it doesn't offend Reddit Admins. Wait too see a lot more porn and gore on non porn/gore subs.
Or an USBC dock for a USB keyboard and mouse.

... and the UserLAnd app then gives a normal Linux terminal with all tools or Linux Desktop apps.
Yep, same. It's not a phone, it's a mobile terminal from a sci-fi movie.

My tolerance for tinkering with anything that matters is already low, but with phones it's pretty much zero. I don't want an OS that has less than a billion other people using it.

I feel bad about e-waste, but I don't care nearly as much as I would for other devices. I'll happily upgrade my phone every 4 years, because it means there's a dozen other things I don't need to own in the first place.

Besides, I like android better than Linux by a lot. I use Linux because of the ecosystem of stuff that runs on it, but I'd be jumping for joy if Android for Servers became a thing and they ported the desktop apps I use to it.
I would be shocked if it takes a year. If a good chunk of people stop adding content the lurkers will stop visiting because they aren’t seeing the novelty they are looking for.
Bash is honestly the perfect learner language. It's installed on a lot of computers already. It has good built in documentation. The code doesn't demand a lot of byzantine syntax, its honestly the most "legible" language I work with by far.
Something I have not seen mentioned much is Qualys affected by this hack - leaking vulnerability scans on over 19000 companies.

I don't know the specific one they're referring to, but I'd imagine it would be similar to many other pets and prisoner programs [0]. The essence being that having an animal to take care of can be therapeutic and help teach valuable rehabilitation skills like responsibility.

You can do it with two bags. Place one piece of each colour, except for pawns, in bag A. Place the pawns and remaining pieces in bag B. There’s ten unique piece in bag A and bag B produces colour with equal probability, so there are twenty distinct outcomes which all have equal odds.
Given the planet is one big ol' magnet, it seems at least plausible to see interactions?
I do assume this, but I'm checking with the wider community here, how do you insulate the negative affects?

Monitoring + insurance? We did the freeze, but is that sufficient enough?

Seems like I'm gonna have to get some kind of insurance + monitoring in case something goes really south, no?
Losing a 4 hour game stings a lot more than playing 20 games in a row with a variety of results.
It depends. For some use cases it’s definitely enough and if you’re on tight budget it might get you far enough. But eventually it might fall short and you’ll have to either fight the framework or switch to a native solution.

I believe it’s good for knocking out an MVP if the mobile app is not critical to your business. I would not choose it otherwise though.
We were never restricted to Electron.

There are browsers already installed, and MSHTML apps and XUL predate it for a decade.
Private prisons are probably a stand-in not because they represent most prisoners in the US but because they represent the apotheosis of perverse incentives.
This could grandfather existing phones. Future phones would need to trace providence of IP and get requisite permissions.

Maybe if they decrease size of display, it wouldn't be that bulky. And we would finally get a phone again that is not wannabe tablet.
Ellsberg disagrees with you:

"Snowden made the right call when he fled the U.S."

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/daniel-ellsberg-nsa-...

"Many people compare Edward Snowden to me unfavorably for leaving the country and seeking asylum, rather than facing trial as I did. I don’t agree."

Also, Snowden was trapped in Russia by the U.S. government while in transit to South America, enabling the smear that he went into the arms of the Russians.

And further from Ellsberg:

"I went underground with my wife, Patricia, for 13 days. My purpose (quite like Snowden’s in flying to Hong Kong) was to elude surveillance while I was arranging — with the crucial help of a number of others, still unknown to the FBI — to distribute the Pentagon Papers sequentially to 17 other newspapers, in the face of two more injunctions. The last three days of that period was in defiance of an arrest order: I was, like Snowden now, a 'fugitive from justice.'"
Whether or not a Department of AI is a good idea, google's is the last voice we should be listening to in the conversation.

As biased as it gets. Let's at least try to not have corporations writing the law on this one as well.
> If the owners/companies no longer exist, then I would think the IP should be free by default. Perhaps that's another law to work on...

I think I have even more elegant solution. All IP should be subject to a tax (or maintenance fee or whatever you want to call it). As soon as the IP owner fails to pay the tax, IP falls to public domain irrevocably. The actual structure of the tax can be subject to debate. I would propose a highly progressive tax over time, for example for patents something like $100 for the first year, then doubling every year.

Seriously, why should IP not be taxed? We tax almost everything else that is possible to tax. Especially given it is far from certain that IP is net benefit for society. (I'm willing to give the benefit of doubt though, that's why I am not proposing to abolish IP completely)
Can you add any more? Cause, the other theory and Wikipedia click hole are pretty convincing. But, I'm not a maths wiz.
The same is true for the mods. Mods don't own subreddits, the community does. If they want to close down communities that aren't theirs, why not just quit Reddit? They are free to stop moderating.
Yeah no DSL here. Before it did any work all it demanded was that we expose these two simple functions: get_flight_manifest(engine_id) and ping_starlink_radio(engine_id)

It said they were for diagnostic and monitoring purposes only.

Sadly it only works with gpt-4. Gpt-3.5-turbo immediately starts trying to ping all the radios one by one.
> Assuming Lemmy will be "the winner"

there's also kbin, and you can post/read from either with any Mastodon/Pleroma/Misskey account just with a worse UI. i'd be surprised at this point if the winner isn't just Activity Pub with some thin layer on top.

> different instances already stop federating each other, thus splitting the community early.

instances usually provide at least some reason when they defederate with each other. maybe users will learn to be cognizant of who they're associating with when they pick an instance. i've seen that with tech-literate friends joining Mastodon who pick a 4chan-like unfiltered/unhinged instance as their home without understanding that such an instance causes outsized complaints compared to the "average" instance and will have less access to outside communities as a result.

i'm sure there's an opportunity for better admin/mod tooling -- hopefully some of the defeds that have happened in Lemmy recently will reverse once things settle down -- but i think even with that it has to be a new way of thinking both for users and operators about what it means to be a member of an instance. it seems that when you hand someone a magic knob they can turn between "less toxicity/abuse" and "broader reach", most will turn it further toward that "less toxicity" edge than Twitter or Reddit do themselves -- even if the tooling for it's so crude. i get why that worries people, but honestly, the benefits of that in other federated systems i use so far have been incredibly worth it (and the cost of migrating to a different instance overblown).
There’s no value in Snowden returning to face punishment or torture. Most people given the option would have chosen to stay in Russia.

Near guaranteed freedom in Russia or an unjust likely life imprisonment in one of the worst prisons in America?

You don’t have to make a martyr of yourself as a whistleblower.
Do you really think that the non-deficit spending of the government is not helping people? The growth in government spending in the last handful of years has been unprecedented and enormous.

> We'd have more than enough money if we had sensible tax policies (read: higher taxes on corporations and the rich)

There isn't enough there to fund the trillions in deficits.

As for who benefits from corporations doing well, did you know that something like 60% of Americans have investments in the stock markets and much of the rest have pension plans invested in stocks?
My company used to use move it but got rid of it in 2017 because of security concerns. Allas our crappy outsourced Hr company didn’t.

My understanding of this attack is that the company

1) didn’t have IP access controls to limit machines that can talk to the moveit manager

2) didn’t have SSL client certificates to prevent a machine from connecting without a valid certificate

Now a sql injection really isn’t good, it’s not hard to protect against, both by sanitising inputs and using prepared statements, but that’s why we have defence in depth
Well that explains why my address was changed to an old out-of-state one at my credit agency and I had to change it back

So, going through the 2023 CVE's for io_uring, this is the only one that impacts the 6.x kernel line. The rest were targeting 5.10 (except one for 5.19).

https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2023/05/08/3

https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=io_uring

That tells me that io_uring stabilized a lot during 2021.

Google yanking support for it seems like a bad decision. Instead, they should upgrade their 3-year-old kernels, which certainly contain other fixed-but-not-backported security vulnerabilites.
These aren't mutually exclusive. (Training data and 3rd party apps api usage)

He can provide FREE API access to 3rd party mobile apps, so long as they don't give data to openai/etc.

That's a win/win. The way this is structured it's to completely squeeze out ALL 3rd party apps, and make a closed garden essentially. They're basically an open community trying to become AOL for $$.
I don't like mods either but parasites? I mean sure they act like the communities they mod belong to them but that's a bit much!
I'm astonished they don't just require 3rd party apps to use an API key from reddit gold users.

The only thing worse than the reddit app is how much the company is trying to ram it down users' throats.

Standard freemium model: make the user experience so painful they'll gladly pay you to opt out of the pain.
Geomagnetism is easily measurable and has been monitored for a long time.

The central claim is that changes in cosmic ray frequencies can predict earthquakes. The proposed causal mechanism is changes in the geodynamo affecting the propagation of cosmic rays. The effect on cosmic rays is secondary to the changes in geomagnetism. Despite decades of people looking for evidence, changes in geomagnetism are not associated with earthquakes[0].

If this paper's hypothesis is true, geomagnetic fluctuations should co-occur with fluctuations of cosmic ray counts - thus geomagnetic fluctuations should also predict earthquakes. But they don't.

Claims of being able to predict earthquakes have had a long and not great history. Earthquake prediction is the faster-than-light travel of geophysics. Any claims that it is possible should be viewed with extreme scrutiny.

> This particular article does touch on a goal that isn’t usually explicitly stated: it would make the world “less unequal” if everyone was prevented from working longer hours. Yes, it would, but I am deeply appalled at the thought of trading away individual freedom of action and additional value in the world for that goal.

Am I the only person appalled by Carmack's apparent privilege here? In an era when a CEO is routinely making 300x the wage of an average worker, and sometimes thousands of times more, giving people the option to work less for the same amount of wage seems like one of the few ways we can force the ultra-rich to give back? No one is forcing people to work 7 hours and they could easily work more if they wanted to, but reducing the minimum amount of toil required seems to be a net benefit to everyone who is not insanely wealthy.

Edit: ah, you mean for any practical purposes. Duh.
I hope you are right. I have never been in or seen a workplace where management is not playing the 'get the order at (nearly) all costs - let others handle the problems' game. Again, I hope I am wrong. But these type of companies seem to outcompete all others. The only unicorn in a decade in my geographical area, is a company that plays this game very very well in the IT sector. As far as I have seen, they play a variation called 'the customer takes the problems (and the full financial impact). Due to building a good set of core competencies, that the competition mismanaged over years, they can get away with this strategy.

I read somewhere that industry watchdog sites on marketing, are telling people to pull ads from Reddit, as it's not clear how this internal culture war will turn out, and basically it's a risky investment. FB / Google and even Twitter ads are much more sound at the moment.
Theoretically, the societal benefit of lettings randos buy and sell contracts is that there is (a) better price discovery and (b) better liquidity. There are probably theoretical counterarguments to both of those points, but it's hard to see alternative systems that provide either or both those features.

At a basic level, obviously thee needs to be someone assuming the price risk from the farmers, and those people will obviously need to be compensated.

I think the second urn is preferable in the repeated case because for really unbalanced ball setups there is a high correlation between the color that gets drawn each time. You can just guess that the next ball will be the color that was most common among previous drawings.

With the 30/30 red/green urn, on the other hand, you don't really have a much greater edge than 50%, at least in the early phases. In the later phases, perhaps you could count balls to get an edge, unless the balls are put back in the urn after being drawn.
I'm not sure how this is related to my post so perhaps I was unclear. I'm not talking about individual corn farmers and the choices they make, I'm talking about how we as a society and an economy allocate our resources. I'm saying that derivative financial instruments have value, for the reasons I suggested and the others described by sibling commenters, but that the finance sector is larger than that value warrants.

I'm not sure why I'm being downvoted, as I didn't think this is all that controversial. Historically, finance was a much more boring and less lucrative field than it is now, and consequently much smaller. "I'm a super smart 18 year old and I want to get rich, so obviously I should go into banking" is a relatively recent phenomenon. I agree with everyone else here that the industry has value, so presumably its recent explosion in size has brought some additional value, but it's very hard to believe that value is large enough to offset the opportunity cost of a generation of ambitious geniuses not going in to science or industry or becoming entrepreneurs.

the easiest way is to just separately encapsulate all parts that need to be removable (i.e. the battery + wireless charging coil in one piece and the rest of the phone in the other), and only have the connectors as the exposed pieces. A gasket around those and contacts far enough away from each other for good measure and you're good to go.

Plus the Samsung Active line never needed to go to these extremes to churn out perfectly fine waterproof phones at slightly higher than average prices. And they weren't the only ones with these sort of offerings.

This exact code appears online as part of the IOCCC 1986 (it was a submission), so it's likely that this was indeed part of the training set for this LLM and that there is a significant corpus of text discussing this particular program and other obfuscated programs like it.

I'm not ruling out that this LLM output is "partially organic" rather than "fully regurgitated", but I'd be much more interested to see this LLM explain an obfuscated program that hasn't been floating around the Internet for 35 years.
