Modern CSV version 2
Hi, I'm Evan and I developed Modern CSV. Last year, the beta version of version 2 was posted here on Hacker News. As a follow-up, I'm letting you guys know that the beta period is over and Modern CSV 2 is now available.

Modern CSV is a tabular file editor/viewer for Windows, Mac, and Linux. I developed it out of frustration with how spreadsheet programs handle CSV files. Plain text editors, on the other job, do a poor job of handling columns. With Modern CSV, I attempt to combine the best of both worlds.

With version 2, you can expect to see an improved UI/UX, better performance, more useful features, updated documentation, and for Mac users, native Apple Silicon support.

If you haven't tried it yet, give it a shot and let me know what you think!
Yep, we're talking about similar things but in slightly different ways:

1. When you're small enough, and only have a few teams and/or deployed binaries, you keep everything in a single repo.

2. As you grow with more teams and more products/binaries, often companies will split into having separate repos per team/product, and then use some sort of dependency management tooling (either something like the git submodules you discuss, or a private package repository, e.g GitHub's Package Registry, Nexus, or Artifactory). I totally agree with you that a lot of companies do this prematurely.

3. What distinguishes "monorepos", in my opinion, is that this was an innovation at either Google or Facebook I think (not sure who was first), where they realized exactly what you point out - it makes it really hard to do refactorings across lots of dependent projects in different repos. So they decided to keep everything in a single source control repository, with a single commit history. But in order to do that and have things be sane with lots of teams and thousands of developers, they needed to invest a ton in custom tooling to make these giant monorepos usable by individual developers and teams. E.g Facebook has Sapling, Google has Piper, and there are open source tools like Lerna for JS monorepos.

So, in my experience, just having everything in a single repository but without any special tooling (because you're small enough to not need it yet) is just a repo. Monorepo IMO implies that you've grown to the point where it's difficult to keep everything in a single repo without special developer workflow support tools.

All that said, I definitely agree with your main point - a lot of companies can just keep everything in a single repository a lot longer than they think they can, even without special tooling beyond some separate build targets.
TDB: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barycentric_Dynamical_Time

> [TDB] is a relativistic coordinate time scale, intended for astronomical use as a time standard to take account of time dilation when calculating orbits and astronomical ephemerides of planets, asteroids, comets and interplanetary spacecraft in the Solar System. TDB is now (since 2006) defined as a linear scaling of Barycentric Coordinate Time (TCB). A feature that distinguishes TDB from TCB is that TDB, when observed from the Earth's surface, has a difference from Terrestrial Time (TT) that is about as small as can be practically arranged with consistent definition: the differences are mainly periodic, and overall will remain at less than 2 milliseconds for several millennia.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrestrial_Time

> TT is distinct from the time scale often used as a basis for civil purposes, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). TT is indirectly the basis of UTC, via International Atomic Time (TAI). Because of the historical difference between TAI and [Ephemeris Time] ET when TT was introduced, TT is approximately 32.184s ahead of TAI.

We should look for secondary evidence, did the gov start continuity of gov operations etc. If it is real and if nothing can be done about it, we cannot expect official confirmation.
You can end donations entirely, and disqualify candidates who accept them. The government can put up a website where you can get information about candidates, send everyone bundles of information, schedule debates in a standard format with clear rules for participation, and throw events where candidates can give speeches, and distribute those speeches to everybody who wants them. You can give everybody a day off to vote.

The reason government is corrupt is because we want it to be corrupt. If it weren't corrupt, nobody would pick this endless shower of dynastic creeps.

> Generally industries are much better than random politicians at predicting the consequences of rules

This is true but when people are talking about restricting lobbying the kind of lobbying they want to restrict isn’t companies saying “hey this policy isn’t good for us”. It’s companies spending millions of dollars on donations and advertising to force politicians to make laws that benefit them. It’s possible to restrict the second kind without impacting the first kind, for example by implementing spending limits.
This legend never seems to die. "While Apple was struggling at the time, it did have approximately $1.2 billion in cash reserves." [1]. So the $150 million from Microsoft were not that relevant in saving Apple – new products such as the G3 iMac, which was announced 25 years ago today, saved the company.

Not every retailer that sits between the manufacturer and the consumer is a middleman. That is, it is literally a middleman, but not in the sense that it necessarily has to take on a rent-seeking, economically harmful role.

Most manufacturers don't have the expertise in dealing with retail and don't care to build it up. They stick to what they're good at, which is manufacturing, and let the retailer stick to what they're good at, which is dealing with the whole host of other issues that arise in retail commerce.

In a related current development, traditional automakers like Ford are angling to sell directly to the consumer, like Tesla does. People are generally on board with this because dealership experiences do suck often. But once dealers are all driven out of business, it's a good bet that the automaker will benefit from that surplus, not the consumer. It'll be interesting to see.
That’s true, but the technical differences between a render function and a traditional template is arguably the biggest fundamental difference between React and most other UI rendering tools.

As far as I can tell, literature is a form of explicit communication to the naive reader, which intrinsically provides context to interpret it.

The README is literature. The code is not (common case).
A cipher is not literature, even if that cipher is breakable, resulting in literature. It may be useful to consider it literature if you know the cipher, but it is not until that transformation has occurred. You may recognize this if you try to read a story written by a child or mentally disturbed individual. The story might skip or be interrupted/incomplete or is otherwise nonsensically mangled structurally and narratively. Literature implies literacy to access the medium both ways (reader and author). Broken manuscripts are not literature, per se.

Literature is a soft term, so what I think holds no value other than how it might well describe the populist zeitgeist surrounding the term.

Consumers by and large won't consume such a product. There is a vanishingly small market for a $600 printer that doesn't suck, does its job, and respects your rights as a consumer and doesn't pull bullshit like all the other printers do, except that every other printer costs $150 for the same feature-set.

Of course, I don't know for a fact that someone can't make a living making boutique printers like this. But I don't know that there would be an adequate return on the capital required for such an enterprise.

The politicians corrupted because of the lobbying. How can we put them in separate basket?
That does not seem to have stopped them from making endless film adaptations of the book. Feels like there's been a new one every five years for my entire life.

I appreciated the comic book adaptation called Peter Panzerfaust, where the Lost Boys were a resistance cell in WWII, and Captain Hook was a Nazi officer. I assume that doesn't require licensing, because it just uses the ideas without reusing any specific, named elements. It would be better to make something completely original rather than just adapting old material, but that's evidently not possible anymore. So, the next best thing is to recontextualize it and change the idea enough, which not only makes for something novel, but also dodges these ridiculous legacy licensing issues in certain cases.
What no-code tools are you using?
The rules you create are in the form of venn diagrams of up to 4 overlapping regions (see shagie's top-level comment), where you can specify rules for each region to match and the sizes of the different overlaps, and then the output is a decision-- marking specific regions as clear/bomb, creating new regions (!), or even changing region visibility-- marking them as hidden or removing them from further rule evaluations.

Those rules can include terms like "5", "x", "x+2", and "x+y+3", so you can express most variants in a signle rule.

The closest to "undecidable" under this rule system is that you can hide a region and prevent further deductions from it, making some board states impossible to resolve. Other than that, all the rules are decidable.
For those of you in Europe still waiting for your PineTab V delivery (like me).

Pine64 support just informed me that the delay in shipping is due to waiting for the CE certificate to be issued before the device is permitted to be imported to Germany (and the rest of the EU, I guess).

Their estimate for the CE certificate availability is early-mid September.

> There is no good democratic outcome for $175K a year jobs that cost half a billion dollars to apply for.

I would argue that this is a reason to reform our electoral system rather than just resign ourselves to a corrupt system. If it didn’t cost half a billion dollars to become a politician and the pay better reflected the job responsibilities (along with other reforms) we’d probably see less corruption

User names are useful in a team context: when you see who created a file or who is currently modifying the file with you. Also when receiving the email invite to a team / project.

Otherwise, you'd have to display the full email, which isn't as readable.

Using social logins would definitely help in making the sign-up simpler (but I guess you still need it in the form if using email login option though).
You are attributing all of Penn's sports wagering revenue to Barstool. Penn owns more than a dozen casinos. Given the severe underperformance of the reality vs projections, many in the industry believed that the Barstool brand was a net negative to Penn's efforts.

If anybody believed that the Barstool brand was successfully bringing in revenue, some other bidder would have bought it from Penn. The fact that they abandoned it for nothing kind of tells you how much value Penn believed that it had.
I think the key language here is pause "commercial use". They're not asking for a pause on R&D - just not making the tech/products available to the market (to quote: "temporarily pause commercial use"), until such time as agreed guardrails can be applied. This is a much more pragmatic solution than the "open letter" calling a halt on R&D.

This. GPT-4 was the first time in decades that I have been absolutely blown away by the capability of a technology. These LLMs are right up there with the Internet or smartphones as transformational technologies.

Hear me out: Privatize all ISPs and run them USPS style (gov owned, non-gov board operated). Not just email but the internet is more vital than USPS, there is a reason it was never made fully private. New ISPs should still be allowed like fedex and ups are with usps.

You pay thus bill but you also pay them again with your tax money with the hefty rural service subsidies they basically rob from the government.

Municipal internet is thinking too small, federal internet is more like it. Last mile should be 100% gov owned with CPE/NID/inside-wiring installed by the gov or competing ISPs but owned by the consumer.

The fed gov should just buy out their majority share stock and do a hostile takeover and buy the rest of the shares once price tanks when people here it will be operated at a loss.

No more outsourced support,etc... because fedgov can't do that. And my favorite benefit: they can't sell your info to third parties and then have the gov buy it from them once they are operated by the fed.

This type of stuff seems crazy but it can happen!

The difference between UIs is actually not very relevant today; by now the generic workflow for complex scenes is more or less obvious to anyone who spent time with SD.

- Draw basic composition guides. Use them with controlnets or any other generic guidance method to enforce the environment composition you want. Train your own controlnet if you need something specific. (lots of untapped potential here)

- Finetune the checkpoint on your reference pictures or use other style transfer methods to enforce the consistent style.

- Use manual brush masking, manually guided segmentation (ex. SAM), or prompted segmentation (ex ClipSEG) to select the parts to be replaced with other objects. The choice depends on your case and need to do it procedurally.

- Photobash and add detail to the elements of your scene using any composition methods you have (noisy latent composition, inpainting etc) with the masks you created in the previous step. Use advanced guidance (controlnets, t2i adapters etc)

- Don't bother with any prompts beyond very basic descriptions, as "prompt engineering" is slow and unreliable. Don't overwhelm the model by trying to fit lots of detail in one pass; use separate passes for separate objects or regions.

- Alternative 3D version: build a primitive 3D scene from basic props (shapes, rigs). Render the backdrop and separate objects into separate layers as guides. Use them with controlnets & co to render the scene in a guided manner, combining the objects by latent composition, inpainting, or any other means. This can be used for procedural scenes and animation (although current models lack temporal stability).

As long as your tool has all that in one place, it's a breeze, regardless of the UI paradigm (admittedly auto1111's overloaded gradio looks straight out of a trash compactor nowadays). I expect 2D/3D software integrations being the most successful in the future, as they already offer proven UIs and most desirable side features. The problem is that in the current state SD can't do much in the production setting, it's not a finished product - so there's not a lot of interest in software integrations just yet.
By ABET. The institution as a whole is accredited.

The question is whether accreditation from an engineering org is worth the limits they place on your curriculum. Stanford EE and CS and Cal EECS all say no, they’d rather give their grads more flexibility than have them jump through ABET hoops.
Next time just man up and say you don't like what's being said instead of pretending you want sources.

Pay attention to this part - "individual to FEEL terrorized, frightened, or18
threatened"

This is a subjective law based on the FEELING of the "victim". No one has a legal right to not FEEL threatened, what in the world are you talking about? Nothing is being "twisted". Don't gaslight me. If it has been illegal there would be no reason for new law .

Either you're a moron or you have malicious reasons for pretending there's no implication to basing a law on how the victim feels due to things said to them. I'm guessing it's the latter. I have no idea how in the world a semi-intelligent person could not see that as a direct threat to the 1st amendment.

I also like that you completely ignored the UK article which shows exactly what the Michigan law would result in. Have a nice day.
