> Ideas should be judged on their merit, not their popularity.

No, ideas that need to be applied broadly should be judged on a combination of their merits and demerits, and popularity, as there are enforcement and political costs associated with any proposal (as long as the government needs to do make any changes whatsoever).

It would be different if it was a private proposal that will only affect you and immediate family.

To be entirely honest, it seems like you need to rethink this more thoroughly instead of just repeating memorable slogans.

I'm a big fan of tomatoes, and one of my favorite dishes is sliced tomatoes, salted, and eaten with cheese.

For some reason, normal salt just sticks on the top of the tomato despite it being wet and I can "taste" the salt not just saltiness. However, with crunched salt crystals, they basically dissolve and disappear into the moisture of the tomato. This just tastes better too.

Don't ask me why or how it all happens, it's just what I've found using my taste buds.
Haha, that trailer is great.

It looks pretty much fine, except for the part that says:

> In addition, violations of this code outside these spaces may affect a person's ability to participate within them.

which sort of negates all the other good aspects. If a CoC is a contract or agreement, it should provide guarantees for both sides, i.e. that inappropriate behavior will be punished but also make it exactly clear which things are inappropriate.

There are absolutely no reasons to extend the CoC to spaces outside the project other than to give the enforcers more opportunities to arbitrarily target people.
I meant that the steep learning curve related to the intrinsic complexity of dealing with desktop GUI frameworks, which I lacked experience with previously: terminology, layout and flow caveats (e.g. with embedded scroll panels, limitations on autosizing and reflow in the absence of explicit dimensions), etc. The Yue author clearly has extensive GUI SDK experience, and while comprehensive, like many open source projects the Yue documentation assumes some minimal understanding of the concepts and inevitable limitations.

The only possibly unnecessary complexity with Yue is the build framework, but that sort of thing can be quite subjective and a function of various requirements (personal, third-party libraries--it uses Facebook's Yoga for automagic layout and reflow) and familiarity. Excepting libui (which is basically defunct), all the frameworks I investigated had terribly complex builds, so it's pretty much par for the course. Notably, Yue releases prebuilt binaries with every release. I couldn't make use of those because I wanted a fully static, fat application binary (x86-64 + arm64), and also I needed a convenient, local Yue build for writing and testing patches.

Certainly not? Composite systems that leverage LLMs can do a lot of things - but AFAIU LLMs will likely never rationalize or be able to "add numbers" in the normal sense; they can count only in as much they know that 1,2,3,4 is more probably coming after "count to four" than 10,2,4.

The character of Stephano, is likely based after one of my ancestors, Stephen Hopkins, who led a failed mutiny at Jamestown. Shakespeare wrote the Tempest after reading news and hearing about the Jamestown incident. Interestingly, after Jamestown Stephen Hopkins returned to England and then made the trip a second time, this time on the Mayflower, where he was at the first Thanksgiving.

Ask HN: Where to find tech meetups in Dubay, UAE?
Is meetup the best website/app to find tech meetups in Dubai, UAE?
My point wasn't that legislation has no impact, of course it can move the needle. Many people will follow the rules simply because they prefer to, and others will because the legal punishment is enough of a deterant.

My point was that jumping from some people have wrecks because they drive drunk/high/distracted/tired to we need more legislation doesn't make any sense. If we want to inform the public of the risks of driving impaired we absolutely can do that, it doesn't require laws and punishment to help educate people.

Assuming we can legislate away bad decisions is effectively agreeing that we'd prefer the state is powerful enough to take away any decision we may want to make but that they disagree with. Why not just expect the government to help research the risks and inform us, trusting us to make the best decision for ourselves?

I’ve started using nanoid for generated ids. Here is the JavaScript version:

https://github.com/ai/nanoid

Some info from that page:

- Safe. It uses hardware random generator. Can be used in clusters.

- Short IDs. It uses a larger alphabet than UUID (A-Za-z0-9_-). So ID size was reduced from 36 to 21 symbols.

- Portable. Nano ID was ported to 20 programming languages.

I'll note that Snowden, whatever you think of him, had the balls to come forward and put his name on all his disclosures. He got help from journalists as far as summarizing and prioritizing and coordinating with major newspapers but he never was "an anonymous source" or "a person with knowledge of the meeting."

As to the other points, when some top secret info does get revealed, legally or not, and the public reaction is pretty much, ehh, we already assumed that -- that seems like a pretty big failing of the whole concept of "secret." And on the other hand, I'll grant you a few exceptions, like the names of spies, position of gear or troops, perhaps the detailed weapons specs like you mentioned -- but when the name of this system is "top secret" and seemingly well over 90% of what is marked "classified" lacks any informational value whatsoever, that's a failing in the other direction, people stop caring about "secret" because so little of it is actually important.
This is nonsense.

The past looks better only because it is a distorted view from a lack of information at that time.

The issue is that you typically need an unaccessible level of depth for new players to avoid the game getting "solved" by the data being open.

0.11% or even 0.08% of total worldwide energy consumption is a fucking shit ton of energy. You could also compare it to the sun's energy output to make the percentage even smaller looking, but the energy size is still huge.

The metric to compare bitcoin to is energy per transaction compared with EXISTING forms of digital finance with which it is competing.

The argument that "bitcoin may be bad energy-wise but are other things are too, so therefore don't worry about" it is a bad one. It's like saying, "sure child abuse is bad, but war causes way more suffering and there are still wars so no need to do anything about child abuse, at least until all war everywhere stops first. Oh and if you do try and stop child abuse while war exists then you are a hypocrite.". Bad premise, bad logic.
Yes and no. In movies people talk about using proxies around the world, but network latency quickly gets terrible if you ever actually did this.

It’s inconvenient enough to suggest most western hackers attacking western targets would choose something else if they had the option. Thus either China’s cyber security is terrible and or these attacks are coming from Asia.

This. I believe the title of this post is a click bait, and doesn’t include the context of this verbiage.

My only recommendation/advice is to use a thick bottom wok or pot. A wok allows the already popped popcorn to move away from the heat source.

Thick bottom pots also reduce burning. Use a vented lid so steam can escape which prevents soggy popcorn.

In the quote the author is speaking about students handing in an assignment and using ChatGPT to write it. He says:

> This may not count as plagiarism, but it won’t produce anything new.

First, it is plagiarism by definition. Any time one presents work as their own which they did not create themselves is plagiarism .

Second, and vastly more importantly going forward, students were never handing in “new” ideas on an assignment. Using an LLM to generate a “pastiche” that is then read by the student (hopefully) before being handed in is still a win in my book. Having students ask their questions to an LLM can be an amazing tool to further learning but when students and educators are terrified of this new tool they will hide their usage of it and then it becomes a tool for copying rather than learning and plagiarism is the only consequence.

If their AI uses my code as the basis to generate similar code, how is that not a derivative work?

If I make my own image of Spider-Man or some similar IP, that image is still a derivative and subject to copyright claims. Even if I claimed “I never knew about a character like this before”, I’d still get hit with a massive infringement claim.

I agree that the potential of a modern website is bigger than that of a PDF.

The problem is that the effort to get there is much much MUCH bigger than with a PDF. A PDF has the advantage that it gives the reader a high quality product, consistently. I love reading PDFs on a large iPad.

As a reader, these are my highest priorities:

* high quality (proper layout & design, high resolution of graphics and text)

* easy to store in my library, so I can read it again whenever I want to

PDF does that. A modern website acceptable to me needs to do that at least as well as PDF does. And they usually don't. For example, how would I store that website easily in my library, being sure that it doesn't depend on some weird JS library downloaded from an obsolete Cloudflare link? The ePub standard is supposed to deliver that, but it falls short in practice. Whenever there is both an ePub version of something, and a PDF version, I choose the PDF version, because it is just easier and more pleasant to read. An exception are books consisting of purely text like novels, which is where I prefer ePubs.

In another comment I mentioned I use nanoid in my projects now. It has a default space of 64^21 and has an a page where you can play with key lengths and alphabet sizes and see the probability of collisions :

At the default 64 character alphabet with a 21 character key length it would take ~41 million years in order to have a 1% probability of at least one collision if you generated 1000 ids per second.
