> 2. Have you contributed funds to OpenAI? If not, where did your sense of entitlement come from?

Is your argument that we need to have given a company money before we can be opposed to their unethical business practices? We're talking about a company that wantonly disregarded copyright, broke the DMCA billions of times (proving that law is for completely destroying individuals who want to personally enjoy some media they probably otherwise wouldn't buy, not for corporations who want to hoard the wealth collectively made by all of society), charges its users even when its product is not delivered due to their own server errors, and then goes in front of congress to try to put up a regulatory moat to make competition illegal. Everything they do is based on "the law applies to you, not us." And you're saying that we're entitled for being outraged by this?

> 4. What's stopping you from creating what you thought OpenAI should be? Feel free. Nobody stopping you.

That's literally what Sam Altman is trying to get congress to do. This will literally be illegal if we don't fight back. This is literally what the poster you're arguing against is saying is happening. How many more "literally"s do I need here!?
that's not a bad idea, laws without punishments are kind of ambiguous I suppose. I wonder the utility of leaving this open, is it tantamount to mandatory sentencing and takes freedom away from the judge or something like that.
I may not be the best source on yield vs history, cause I learned about it by looking at stocks I bought that did not pan out. But yeah basically for a company with stable, decade(s) long payout, if yield looks low vs the long-term, the price may be too high. Of course, it can depend on future prospects, market conditions, etc. But in general all other things being equal it seems to hold for boring stocks.
True, and newer programs aren't designed for 800x600 in the first place. At higher resolutions, I actually prefer the larger clearer layouts because there is room to fit them.
that's exactly what they did. Have you read the article?
The point is that this crazy architecture could (perhaps) only be justified if all my backend is outsourced to external serverless points.

The moment that I need to have my own backend to manage some data, I can add the item rating data as well and your system becomes more complex than the built-in solution.
Yes we installed ceiling fans with lights in the bedrooms and living room. The smaller bedrooms (currently offices) have the light controlled by a switch next to the fan switch on the wall. This is because the fans we bought for rooms only use pull chains and have separate conductors for light and fan. The larger rooms have remote control fans so for now the control unit is switched from the wall and then the fan speed and light is controlled by the fan's remote. I actually hate this arrangement and am going to do some splicing of the fan's wires and expanding the switch box in the largest bedroom so I can control the light from a normal switch.

All the overhead lights outside of the kitchen and showers were cheap "boob lights." The kitchen and shower lights are LED pucks that mount flush to a shallow box and kind of look like recessed lights. First we replaced all of the boob lights with wider LED panel lights with a warm color temperature. While doing this I noticed something about the light boxes in the centers of the living room and bedrooms: the boxes were mounted so they are centered over a joist, meaning you can screw a fan directly into the joist. They also had two hot conductors running from the switch box. One was colored red and the other was colored black. The red one was wired from the switch to the light, and the black one was capped at both ends. They were set up to have fans installed without any modification to the box.
I was able to backup my iPhone photos (stored on device) to Window using Dokany, ifuse and rclone. This have one caveat though: if you are using iCloud, some of your photos are actually stored as low resolution copies of the original to save space on your device, so original will be not backed up.
Reframing my relationship with emotions has radically changed my life.

This essay discusses:

- reasons to avoid 'emotional looping'
- the vital importance of 'feeling the feels'
- why making 'unemotional' decisions is impossible
There is yet another thing with deducing this: no more pointer-to-members:

```
class A {
int f(this A & self, float b);
};
```

Type of &A::f is int ()(A &, float), not int (A::)(float).

This is huge for template metaprogramming function deduction if you stick to it because that generated a lot of template instantiations to cover all cases.
HDMI predates DP by 5 years, switching wouldn't enable any specific use case, and that 5 years head start means HDMI has market inertia.

Yes we should use it because it's better but the practicality? There's so much gear that's HDMI that would have to be replaced or require new active adaptors. It's so much industry and consumer effort for such a marginal gain.
Project Treble doesn't go that far. It allows you to boot a mostly hardware-independent ("generic") AOSP, but it's still dependent on AOSP version, hardware architecture (32- vs. 64-bit) and other details such as the partition arrangement, which varies by device. Project Droidian is trying to make it feasible to run something close to a mainstream Linux userland (hence, not just AOSP) on top of Treble drivers, and it's not very easy.
The software is the matrix multiplication and gradient descent. We are talking about the numbers in the matrices. They are the output of a training algorithm, so we can only talk about the copyright on the training algorithm, and on its input data.

YouTube is interesting but it is in my experience is tamable with a lot of 'buts'. What I find ironic is that the algorithm is so sensitive to keeping you engaged, you can have the opposite effect and, instead of being barraged with clickbait at random, you're left with hyper-similar content to what you've previously watched, to the point that the variety becomes so narrow that you can't escape without "re-taming" it via text search and subscriptions.

I agree completely about clickbait chasing from content creators. There's one guitar based content creator that has gone so far down the rabbit hole that I can't watch them at all any more as the content is just barely about guitar playing.
They don't like that having cameras provides objective evidence of the race of people who commit crime.

They recommend against being able to prevent/punish these crimes, because that might be mean.

I'm tired of science as a religion. People treat it as some gospel, like if you check out some criterions you're suddenly "scientific" and instantly get a sense of validity and authority that you shouldn't logically get.

I judge things as "what you can do", not "what can you predict". The only demonstration of knowledge and understanding is being able to do something. Not predict. Not "scientific method" and ridiculous "peer review" (actually peer pressure), not blind trials and not rigorous statistical analysis.

In the end of the day, you either manage to do something or you don't. So much of so called science had lost all contact with reality because our judgement of success isn't successfully doing something, it is successfully jumping through "scientific" hoops. Look at string theory and social sciences. The scientific process, instead of being a tool, became the purpose. It became a stamp of validity to seek. A stamp of validity with gatekeepers in the academia, in the peer review process, in the media coverage afterwards all the way to social media censorship and "fact checkers".

What used to be the frontier of creative people became a stagnant beurocratic machine worshipped like a new religion. The side of the heretics burned at the stake became the ones crying out heresy.

Enjoy your new brand of science. I'll stick to the older brand of heretics and mad men which did whatever it was the prevailing orthodoxy told them to avoid doing and thinking, and I'll remind you that the only real reason those are remembered is because they did something useful, not because of the social traditions they adhered to or the rigorous scientific standards they followed.
Who cares if 1% of people "game" it? Do you think people are actually looking up lists of achievements outside of gag websites like this and getting jealous that someone else has XYZ achievement to the point that they'll game the system themselves to get that achievement? And if they do, so what?

So maybe 1% of people do that. We should nuke it for the other 99% who literally just push code into a repo, go to their profile randomly and see that they've earned a new badge?

I have maybe 4-5 badges and I have literally no idea what the next one I'm closest to getting is. I don't even know what badges I'm missing. But it's still cool to me to see a new one show up.
Sadly, that page isn't loading for me. :( Mistake on my end?

I'm going to guess that the shader version is a bit larger than the naive turtle version. Not that it isn't doable, but is tough evidence to hold for the benefits of the expressive power of functional code. :D
This is great, but also hopelessly naive for a very important reason. Check out this graph from the article:

Note the trend line intersecting with the x axis in 1980. Now this:

The world was set to do everything we're doing today in the 80s. Except that the powers that be decided to extract every last dollar from fossil fuels, regardless of consequences like global warming. Decades of government subsidies for everything except solar and wind followed, creating a long tail of glacially slow price reductions for renewables. So we accept evolution and reject revolution because we can't see the strings controlling the marionette. <- writing this on a site dedicated to hacking around barriers is especially painful

I wrote about stuff like heat pumps and carbon capture in long emails to my friends in the 2000s, complete with prices and sources. Then had to wait 20 long years for the world to manifest those ideas in its own time. Which hinged on political close calls like Obama's reelection, which provided a brief safety net for electric car manufacturers among other things, and almost didn't happen. It took almost no time for his successor the former president to impose a 30% tariff on solar panels in 2018 in a last-ditch attempt to block us from cancelling our power bills.

The real challenge we're facing is that the wealthy of the world could have solved this yesterday for a relatively paltry investment but chose not to. The proof of that is in their continued downplaying of such causes as they play hard with rockets, Twitter, etc. This is the tragedy of the commons at scale. Similar to the problem of parents choosing for the good of their children individually but not collectively. In other words, unstoppable without a cultural awakening.

But I applaud the author's efforts.

Edit: just a little "proof" from Naked Gun 2 1/2, released in 1991 when this was already common knowledge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8Wk79i1gcg
Building the reactor is a small fraction of the total cost. People love to talk about small modular reactors as if that’s the only cost but they still need actual turbines to generate power, electrical equipment, cooling, pumps, complex high pressure plumbing, giant buildings, spent fuel ponds, etc so the reactor’s themselves are not even the full construction cost to get power let alone the actual lifetime cost.

Equipment breaks down so you need to maintain, repair, and eventually replace it. Which is a large reason why you need roughly 500 people per GWh to run the things even without any regulations. You need not raw ore but concentrated u235 in complex and expensive to build fuel rods etc. You need lot’s of land near an abundant water source to cool them which is exactly the kind of places people want to live. Even when it breaks you still need to decommission them.

And that’s ignoring the need for someone to take on the risk of failure. Even when the public isn’t harmed nuclear accidents destroy expensive equipment and are expected to clean up. Accidents on average cost several Billion per GW, you might find cheaper insurance but don’t bet on it without subsidies.
It seems not, I missed that HDMI altmode is still stuck at HDMI 1.4 and they're not making any attempt to bring it up to HDMI 2.0. DisplayPort indeed won in that case.
you can turn them off on your profile within settings if you dislike them that much.
I assume by "http" you mean http1.1 and http2, not http3?
Would be nice to differentiate these in the testing as well.

WebSockets still seem to be stuck with TCP as rfc9220 [0] is not implemented I think.

I doubt fairphone or framework will survive long enough to fulfill these promises. It’s a good bet for them to make. If they go under just write up a “sorry guys the world is mean and we meant well” apology page. If they succeed they’ll pass the job to some cs intern.
It can also pass this by value, which is good for optimization. And it gets read of pointer-to-member functions, which is great.

There was just as much sunk cost into coal infrastructure, but that's not an argument against phasing out coal.

PyTorch adoption: back when Keras went hard into TensorFlow in 2018, both TF and PyTorch adoption were about the same with TF having a bit more popularity. Now, most of the papers and models released are PyTorch-first.
Tell HN: LinkedIn banned me because of my avatar, in the middle of my fundraise
I've been on LinkedIn for a while with zero issues with my normal cartoon avatar (which I use absolutely everywhere). Then yesterday, in the middle of my new startup's fundraise, they hit me with an ID verification and banned my account + deleted my startup's page.

My profile is missing. I have unanswered messages with people whose emails I don't have. Potential investors etc. Friends reaching out asking me why my profile is missing.

They didn't tell me why. Still this morning I didn't know. Now they just responded with an email telling me my "appeal has been denied", and telling me that they removed my avatar for not complying with the TOS.

Zero warning, just straight to ban. This is the avatar: https://leclan.ch (it's used with the author's permission)
> What happens in less than 10 years if they don't abide by it?

Likely nothing. I don't understand why people believe in these things.

> We're long past the point where you can just set rules/laws and companies will abide by it.

What's the rule / law here anyhow? There are always workarounds, e.g. it says it will keep it in parity with xbox... well what if they called a new console something else?
Not filing a complaint doesn't mean anything.

A lot of people want to wash their hands of their old employers and move on, even when they have actionable claims.
Thanks, you explained it better than I did.

The irony is we might all be complicit in supporting this dynamic by choosing to invest in whichever 401k/pension fund option offers the highest returns and lowest expense ratios.
That being the case then, I wonder what's different about countries that get it right? Better public sector management? Privatisation with stronger regulation?
Take your pick:

print("{:#04x}\n", 0xbeef);

- or -

cout << std::setw(4) << std::setfill('0') << std::hex << 0xbeef << std::endl;
Plenty of people are quite happy without doing economically valuable work. Maybe most. So this isn't an X-risk in the sense that humans might go extinct. Workaholics may remove themselves from the gene pool, but there'll be plenty of people happily chilling.
> I think they had to be on disability for a certain period of time (measured in years, iirc) before they were discharged.

In other words, basically borderline poverty for years before people realized it was never going to happen, and got lucky enough to get out of disability -- cuz a lot of people don't.
> Just one wrinkle: It’s only being recommended for use with T-Mobile and MVNOs based on the T-Mobile network in the U.S., with the pair warning that using Fairphone 4 with other US carriers is “not recommended”.

I wonder why this is, as other unlocked Android phones such as the one I'm using (Pixel 6) seem to work just as well on different carriers. I could see this being a large issue for adoption.
From Classic No-Code Builders to Remote Design Systems
For laptops it's pretty clearly USB-C with DP alt mode, just way too convenient to use a display as a charging hub.

Desktop CG manufacturers don't care and it doesn't really drive sales (NVidia has completely removed it, and AMD's tends to be pretty buggy, it's really just DP over a USB-C port) so you need conversion add-in cards (usually from your mobo manufacturer).

Also display manufacturers, standard connectivity seems to be 2xHDMI 1xDP and a USB-C if you're lucky (with a few cool oddballs providing 2xDP 1xHDMI instead). Pretty hard to do all-USB if that means you can't plug more than one machine to your display.
There has, but it's mainly targeted towards workarounds for the walled gardens.

For $100 on AliExpress you'll find ink by the liter instead of milliliter, syringes or custom cartridges to refill the printer, and "chip reset" tools, if applicable.

It sucks that you need to do that, but with a bit of research in advance you can get a cheap printer and escape the razorblade model.
Emacs GUI Library
It’s intellectually dishonest in my opinion.
no vendors implemented it, so whenever you are currently doing hdmi over usb-c it is actually hdmi over dp over usb-c

That's a good point, flatpak is not a good fit for that.

> People aren't forced, they choose it.

No they don't. There aren't any schools nearby that do not force Windows on the students and I can have my whole house on Linux it doesn't matter: if you want to participate in highschool around here then Windows it is. My personal views of MS, their crimes past and present are worth absolutely nothing. I would not be surprised if you dig deep enough that you'll find some level of corruption but even that doesn't help me, it would just lead to a long and drawn out court case the outcome of which will likely be resolved long after my kids are out of school.

So, I have no choice other than to take my kids out of school and that too - rightly so - isn't an option.

It's more than a little bit ridiculous too because there isn't anything in the highschool curriculum that per-se would require access to a windows computer. But they make it so that it just simply doesn't work otherwise, starting from windows native applications for the agenda and messaging system and ending with sending documents in proprietary formats.
I don't want to tell you what the right answer is for your project. But my dad always said "Use the right tool for the job." And if you don't know what tool is right, test some tools and see which one works best.
> And yet not having a presence on the desktop stings a bit doesn't it :).

NOO IT DOESN'T!!

Love the can of worms you opened with that comment. It does sting, because the desktop market is optimized for proprietary software. Open source, even if superior, is always behind on a hill that is upwards both ways. Proprietary firmware, drivers, patents, vendor lock-in, etc., have become very high walls.
There's an oscilloscope screen that does the conversion in software and was the bane of my existence last year.
That’s exactly what I thought too. 800x600 isn’t a fair comparison because a lot of other tech has changed.
Seems trite. No one is running their display at 800x600 so apps aren't building for it.

And why not compare against actual 2023 Word? The Ribbon collapses down to simplified elements that trigger popups when space constrained. The writing surface dominates.
It's not that they hate loops, it's that once you understand recursion and are able to implement it you never want to go back to loops again. Hearing that from others was the main reason I started learning FP, I wanted to see what the hype was all about and let me tell you it's absolutely true. Go learn recursion and get a handle on it and you'll see why.
40G FRL5 (4K @ 144Hz) seems to work just fine for me with a 8m HDMI 2.1-certified cable (copper). But I had trouble finding longer ones from the same vendor which makes me suspect it is getting close to the limit.
> So, I don't understand any of the math in that paper but is there any easy/intuitive way to explain why a higher information density would require negative free energy?

Not really, no. If you don't have the equivalent of a good undergraduate education in physics very little about QFT is going to be accessible to you.
GNOME 2 used to have a choice for toolbars: icons, icons & text, text.
New York State has this program called BOCES, which are cooperative job training high schools that students can optionally go to part time in their Junior / Senior year of high school. So you can go and learn welding, mechanics, electrical, construction, it networking, cooking, etc. The schools usually are targeting students who aren't college bound. But it is a great program which I know a lot of people who were able to get solid careers going right out of high school.
Makes sense. I think my framing would make sense if it said platform-generated content. Network per your framing makes more sense.
While we're still in the honeymoon phase with llms, I think it's hard to "rank" them, at least ones with different goals. Is Anthropic just trying to make a GPT-4 competitor? I'll be interested once we have a real sense of the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches and choices to see how the main contenders differ. I don't expect it will just boil down to one being better than another.
That's really it. There is basically no need to support a 800x600 monitor these days.
Ironically this convinced me to buy a Ring camera.

"You might pattern match on the people who steal your shit" ok? Then I'd be able to report people who steal my shit?

We have only compared on Vercel Edge and Serverless environments. I think it makes a lot of sense to compare our driver to pg on CF with connect.
With HDMI, I have both video and audio traveling over a single cable. That is _extremely_ convenient. DP _theoretically_ supports audio too, but AFAIK that's not widely implemented.
There are places in the world where it's a crime to be gay.
Name one distro apart from the EL clones that offer MAC policies for the software in the core repos. SELinux in Debian is a joke, so are the AppArmor policies.
