> we're all familiar with the stories about indie game developers who spent many years turning an unproven idea into a big hit.

how many are there? and what would connoisseurs consider to be the indie games that were biggest 3 hits?
> funniness—the power to reach inside your body and give you sudden, uncontrollable pleasure—is usually the most obvious and therefore least interesting thing about it

That's something only a person in the business would say. For the audience, funniness is the only thing that matters.
Of course, a vulnerability would allow for bypass of such a thing.
it is denial of service in every way of the term.
yeah look at almost any celebrity. Despite $ for personal trainers ,chefs, and nutritionists, many still put on fat with age. seems inevitable. same here started gaining weight after being stable for so long. i know my activity level did not change much.
They've already caught, arrested and charged some of these people.
I mean, we are talking about the same genre: history documentaries. And there are plenty of WW2 documentaries on YouTube… so it’s not quite Godwin proper (no one is getting called a Nazi who wasn’t an actual 1930s-1940s Nazi). This is more Godwin adjacent… if you watch enough videos on a loop, you’ll eventually see a documentary about Nazis. To be fair, this is true of traditional cable TV too. There are a LOT of WW2 documentaries, so I don’t completely fault the algorithm here.
These people are not doing this out of desperation.
The issue is not with what a medical professional considers an option for medical reasons. The issue, which I too find to be utterly despicable, is the non-consensual mutilation. Any other description only serves to minimize or mask what is ultimately a barbaric ritual.

There are lots of cases in Seattle. Like this guy who was arrested and released 18 times for shoplifting in Seattle over 15 months. And it takes a lot to get arrested for shoplifting in Seattle, so I can only imagine how many thefts a single person was able to achieve.

> Davison said her office has compiled a list of 118 people who together have generated more than 2,400 police referrals for misdemeanor charges in the past five years, all related to theft, trespassing, assault and weapons violations. While King County Jail generally declined to book people for non-violent offenses during the pandemic, Davison said jail officials have agreed to book up to 20 of the people targeted by this enforcement.

So here you have 118 people that have been arrested 20 times, or four times a year, over five years. They never do time, rarely show up for court, and are just released back out to victimize more people. It's a broken system.

Sometimes people are arrested multiple times in the same day: https://twitter.com/carmenbest/status/1187817532817846272

It's not just property crime either. There was a shooting in Seattle where innocent by-standers were shot, including a child, in a gunfight between two young men. They were later found to have been arrested 65 time prior despite being very young. And yet they were free to just roam around.

> According to court records, Tolliver has been arrested 44 times, convicted of one felony, 18 gross misdemeanors, and one misdemeanor. Records show Tolbert has been arrested 21 times, convicted of three felonies, and 12 gross misdemeanors.

It's kind of inevitable. I grew up hearing movies decried as brain-rotting, imagination-killing junk food preventing everyone from reading a good book like nature intended. Of course the medium would be dethroned by something even more accessible.

When there's something even more convenient people will latch on to that instead. Expect nostalgia for the good ol' days when social media used to instill community values and awareness into the youth.
Also, really expensive and requires special expertise to install and repair.

I wonder if the shift has more to do with movie theater attendance absolutely tanking for COVID-19. Even in 2023 ticket sales have been significantly less than the relatively constant rate for the few decades prior. The advertised/direct fill in was of course streaming services but these lean away from the typical blockbuster film content or even full length films at all. I'm not ruling out new social media content trends as a factor in the trend change completely, or as an alternative fill in, but short form social media content doesn't really explain why the "why" for a recent shift. After all, it's not like TikTok invented quick social media content it's just a popular modern choice.

Agree. In the same vein was Fridays featuring Melanie Chartoff, Larry David, and Michael Richards. Also live, also funny.

It's still 'vertically scaling' the number of pixels of hololens like devices. That might have needed innovations in manufacturing, but the product itself is not much of an innovation in my book.
Okay, so the article describes all these things about Michaels, and SNL as an entity, but also says (paraphrasing) “if you’re a comedian and you get the opportunity, it is absolutely in your best interest to participate,” and deliberately has nothing to say about viewers of the show.

Remember that after SNL received criticism for not hiring Black or gay actors, they started to do so more. To me, this article feels like it has a similar intent — “hey Lorne, how can we improve our practices while also helping to improve the outcome”
You're not going to see this in California, you are wildly out of touch.
Coriolis effect is common in large (~10s of km) systems but I'm not sure the effect is strong enough to affect something as turbulent as air rising from a fire. At small sizes, like water in a toilet, it's not large enough to determine which direction the water swirls.
There’s power in the word “theft” that doesn’t exist in “denial of service”.

Theft implies taking something that isn’t yours to take, which appropriately shames the perpetrator of their actions.
This news sort of blindsided me yesterday, because I'd heard the name perhaps once or twice in the blur of news, but it didn't even occur to me that it would hit San Diego and the rest of SoCal head-on.

I heard from family out there that they are hunkering down and making contingency plans. I watched Todd Gloria and the Navy folks in SD announcing their game plans and the situation as it was. I was also surprised to find that it had been upgraded to Category 2 Hurricane, but was expected to be back down to TS level by the time it crossed the US border.

And of course I had to chuckle about the name and ask my friends whether we would be left with a taco truck on every corner, and an email server in every basement, after all. Then I watched Hilary Duff's quite appropriate "Come Clean" video and hunkered down myself.

it's not weird if you examine it from the point of view of user retention metrics.

A subscription recommendation runs out, since you have small number of subscriptions (compared to the whole of youtube). Google wants to keep you clicking, and watching the next video. Algorithmically recommending videos instead of your subscription means you now have effectively infinite list of videos to watch, keeping your eyeball youtube.

With olive in general, you need to rebuild all the models for it; and a whole lot of the extensions for A1111 are support for workflow components with new models (often, whole new classes of models). Unless Olive becomes a major platform for people developing models, this is always going to be lagging.

Dead Brands of Computing Past: Soltek
The cooking is still exclusively done by "the help" in restaurants, but the article indicates that the theatre, so to speak, of food preparation has come to be considered a desirable trait by those occupying the dining room.

So this doesn't quite answer why they settled on keeping it hidden instead of a display of entertainment. There is no reason to think people in that time wouldn't have found the same enjoyment in watching the food get made.

Most likely the answer is that it's just what one notable person happened to decide, by random chance, to do with his kitchen arrangement, and everyone else copied it in hopes that it would make them equally notable. Pretty much all human behaviour can be explained that way.

The association of IPs to individuals and particular services is the original sin of the Internet. At Cloudflare, we’re working to fix that sin. That doesn’t mean governments don’t have the right to regulate content on networks in their boarders: they absolutely do so long as they follow principles of Rule of Law. But blocking on an IP can never be transparent — and therefore violates the Rule of Law — and will always cause collateral damage. Terrific that the Austrian authorities recognized that.
Google didn't buy the books they incorporated into books.google.com either.

How did they scan them in then?
I understood the first code listing, but then lost interest.

In C++, classes can have member functions. Classes can also be derived from each other. A class D derived from B inherits all of B's member functions.

So, when you have an instance of D calling one of its B-derived member functions, the B member function sees "this" as a pointer to a B, even though it is a pointer to a "D". That's fine because pointers to D are convertible to pointers to B.

What is proposed here is a way for one of B's member functions to say "this member function can be called only when the current object ('this') has a particular type." In the example, the particular type is "mut<B>", which is analogous to D.

My lizard brain doesn't see how this might be useful.
YouTube has a similar issue. Viewers who watched "60 minutes of white noise" also enjoyed "8 hr tv noise loop". Yeah... thanks for the rec.

I feel ya. I usually fall asleep at night to some kind of "10 hour loop of blizzard and crackling fire noises" playing on Youtube... and now my YT recommendations are full of "10 hours of crackling fire", "10 hours of thunderstorm noises", etc. suggestions. Sadly YT is incapable of understanding that I only listen to that stuff when I'm trying to fall asleep and I have zero need of those videos any other time. groan

I mean, sure, I can go in and hand edit my watch history to remove that stuff (and I do occasionally) but doing that constantly is a huge PITA. I wish they could figure out a way to fix this.

that's not what they meant by recommendations from subscriptions.

The OP meant that youtube scans the videos that belong to the subscribed channels, and suggest more videos that have similarities in topic or idea, from different channels (that have not been subscribed).
I lived in Eugene, OR in 1976-1984 and have lived in Seattle since 1989 and I don't remember wildfire smoke events at all before something like 2017? Maybe a little hazy and nice sunsets, but not to the point where you could literally taste it.

RAID1 is about mirroring disks, BTRFS RAID1 mirrors block groups. Plus traditionally a RAID1 of 3 disks will mirror the same data on all disks, which is different to how the RAID1 mode on BTRFS acts. So the name leads to misunderstandings since it doesn't act like RAID1 at all.

It'd be way easier to talk about if it had a unique name, and you could say "It's like RAID1".

Despite all that I do like the mode, and use it in a few places.

Yeah there are a lot of 8 hour "music for studying" tracks I listen to (I like the ones which are mixes of music from the halo video games, with a fav being a mix of the ODST soundtrack with additional rain noises), and those are a prime candidate for ripping versus streaming every time, killing the phone's battery and ending up with ads when you are wandering away from your device.

I use the VLC app on ios and transfer music using its wifi web interface, since my computers all run linux and can't easily transfer MP3s to the phone any other way.

Decades ago in Eastern Europe (don't know about now), shops were set up so that all goods were behind counters. When you wanted to buy something, you paid at the register in front, then showed the receipt to the clerk at the appropriate counter.

I was ranting, immaturely, to my ML educated friend recently about how terrible modern discovery algorithms are ("if ML is so powerful why does Spotify exclusively serve up the steamiest of dog sh$t?") when he explained this to me.

His response was "they aren't optimizing their discovery algorithms for your enjoyment, they optimize them for profit."
Reminds me of the old urban legend about using a photocopier as a polygraph:

It should not be about who is presenting the argument, but the weight of the argument itself. For example, for balistics: the debate falls onto whether each individual weapon's barrel would leave a uniquely matching trace that can be analyzed from the fired casing. The argument against this method is that machining precision today is so high that there will be no huge differences between each 2 barrels, that make any match valid as unique and as evidence.

For all the other claims (e.g. polygraph), you can easily search for more information online.

The point is that authority or lack there of should not be a part of your evaluation of the claims, on either side.
It's a defence often used in CP cases - 'my computer was hacked! I had no idea the computer had CSAM!' - and it always fails. Because hacking is atypical, courts place the burden on the defendant to prove hacking, and there's usually no good way to do that. Same thing here, except the defendant is in an even worse position.

In theory, a CP felon would have reason to generically hack some another computer (since CSAM storage itself is illegal), and desktop OSs are less secure. In the phone case, you likely need to assume a specific criminal conspiracy entirely meant to convict the defendant, one that must involve the police*, and that's an extremely high bar to meet.

* The police are the ones using the tool; the only way to effectively plant non-generic evidence is to have the corroborating data first and that requires police assistance.

This thread reminds me of Hacker News’ famous comment about DropBox
> This ID uniquely identifies the host. It should be considered "confidential", and must not be exposed in untrusted environments, in particular on the network. If a stable unique identifier that is tied to the machine is needed for some application, the machine ID or any part of it must not be used directly. Instead the machine ID should be hashed with a cryptographic, keyed hash function, using a fixed, application-specific key. That way the ID will be properly unique, and derived in a constant way from the machine ID but there will be no way to retrieve the original machine ID from the application-specific one. The sd_id128_get_machine_app_specific(3) API provides an implementation of such an algorithm.
