Oh please. First of all, how do you steal an idea? We’re talking about pictures. Supposing that you buy into the theory that you can, copyright was created to further the arts and sciences; it’s in the US constitution. The point isn’t to control your work — it’s to live in a richer society. And it’s not even clear that training a model counts as infringement. Being able to recite a quote from a book is different than reproducing the entire book. Artists won’t acknowledge that the same applies to their art.

If you believe that training models on art is stealing, then I’m a master ninja, since I’m the creator of books3. And even Stephen King today came out and said that he’s fine with it:

> Would I forbid the teaching (if that is the word) of my stories to computers? Not even if I could. I might as well be King Canute, forbidding the tide to come in. Or a Luddite trying to stop industrial progress by hammering a steam loom to pieces.

https://www.theatlantic.com/books/archive/2023/08/stephen-ki...

If he’s not worried, why are you?

I take a dim view of people trying to frame researchers as criminals. We’re not. We want to further science. That’s all.

You call me a grifter, but I’ve made roughly a hundred bucks from books3, and that’s because someone found my patron buried under a pile of links and subscribed to it many months ago. Most of my researcher colleagues seem to have similar distaste for wanting to make money. The work is the goal.

False. It's hard to get cryptocurrency to do anything productive, it's hard to get cryptocurrency do anything other than gamble, pump, and dump, scam and make bubbles.

But the rest of the economy has been making people's lives better for thousands of years. Would you rather live now, or a hundred years ago? a hundred years ago or 200 years ago? repeat till you're satisfied with my argument. If you hit any snags, just repeat a few times more.

right, literature nobody outside the company is allowed to read.

Just like plumbing is literature, except with pipes.
I'm in school, so this may be oversimplified, but if the processor/assembly code is predicting the next result, it gets the result faster. The processor only does this prediction with conditional branches. The extra if for printing or finding the min invoke the prediction with the accuracies stated.

This was also similar in style to Windows CE back then IIRC, at least on Pocket PC.
That would explain why my experience with Win95 was so good. I never really understood all the hate for it (especially given 98/98SE/ME/XP, which came after 95, all of which I never really liked due to the all the extra "user friendly" features I never really used). I must have been lucky to have had the 'right' hardware with the better drivers at the time. IIRC I stayed on Windows 95 right up until Firefox (or whatever it was called at the time) finally dropped support for Windows 95.
Or.... It could just be coincidence, a response to the war games to take the Suwalki Gap.
Also not an astrophysicist, but wouldn't we be able to work the consequence of the distance traveled into the prediction made before the experiment?

There is a possibility that our understanding of what effect the distance would have on the readings, but as long as you don't print things like it "confirms time ran slower" there's no real problem...
Mypal is a good (non-period-correct) browser to run on XP; it's based on a newer version of Firefox and fixes websites, including downloading files from GitHub (and possibly watching YouTube?). But I miss the 2000s Internet, and the only thing we have left are incomplete archives and YouTube "Unregistered HyperCam 2" tutorials from decades past.

Interned there Summer of 08. Remember mentions of “this CUDA thing” then, that was during its infancy.

Midway through, our intern friend group found out one of the smaller buildings had a buffet lunch and started taking the shuttle there often.

Is this similar to the 'Builders Remedy' law in CA cities?

In California, if a city does not plan for the number of homes required by the state, the city has to approve any housing project as long as at least 20% of the homes are low-income or 100% of them are moderate-income.
I’ve spend the last 2 week visiting a friend working in a “estive”, a altitude fields designed for cow grazing in summer.

In order for a language to be used for science, it has to be made that way. For instance, 150 years ago Afrikaans was considered nothing more than corrupted Dutch. But the Afrikaner nationalists - for all their faults - did put a lot of effort into bringing the language to a similar standard as English: establishing universities, ensuring there was scientific and industrial vocabulary, and so on. They often took the route of coining new words, rather than borrowing from English or Dutch. For instance, a computer in Afrikaans is a rekenaar - which originally meant someone who does calculations (similar to the original meaning of 'computer')
Metro was peak design for me. I was doing UI work for MS around 2004 on Windows Media Center, and I think the design on that UI predated it officially becoming "Metro".

I built a house (or more correctly I paid a company to build one for me).

The initial design could be done using an interactive tool that you can use. This is not different from web tools used to design a kitchen. I also think IKEA uses one.

I live in Scandinavia so it is probably different from what you know.

The company designing the house took our drawings and ideas and created drawings and an excel sheet they used to calculate the price of the project. A tool to do this would be valuable and same the customer some time ad I would be able to do most of the work designing the layout.

After the contract is signed the company would make proper plans used for building the house etc..

The complexity of the whole project is enormous but the initial planning would be a good fit for an interactive tool.

Probably petabytes for the text index and exabytes for the whole index (including images and video). The entire textual internet is hundreds of terabytes uncompressed, and indexes tend to balloon storage size to make serving tailored queries faster and cheaper. That idea shifts a bit with images/video where vector/ML techniques dominate; you get a reduction in quality, but quality is good enough (mostly, probably, we think), and you have within a small constant multiple one way or the other of the underlying dataset size for the index size (as opposed to text, where 100x-1000x one way or another isn't uncommon).

If the index is less than petabytes then it's impossible to serve many long tail queries even just based on text content. IME those queries _have_ gotten progressively worse results the last few years, so maybe the techniques have changed, but when the money printer is "search" and a petabyte of data is a fraction of a full-time engineer in cost to store, I doubt they would have cut costs that aggressively.
Has it been improving?
Every creation of the federal government is presumptively unlawful unless and until it is rooted reasonably within one of the enumerated powers. The federal government has speech rights, obviously. It can pick up a camera and take photos like anyone else. It can keep records only in keeping with the constitution (e.g. 4th amendment) and statutory authorization. E.g. no national gun registry and no cell phone location data without a warrant.

Only to the extent that the library of congress is necessary and proper to regulating interstate commerce are its activities authorized. As soon as it strays from that, it must find another enumerated power with which to justify its actions. For instance, if the library of congress were to begin deporting illegal aliens, that would be incontrovertibly within the enumerated powers. To say nothing of the will of Congress.

A centralized copyright register is obviously something important to interstate commerce. Existing internet archives do not keep track of whose copyright is whose. So to transfer ownership of such a thing to the library of congress would not serve any copyright function related to interstate commerce. Surely even you can see that. So you're going to have to get real fucking creative, buddy!
> I have an irrational fear of data loss

If you have an irrational fear of data loss (it's really quite rational), zfs is the only place you should be comfortable.

I've been on zfs since its earliest days (~2004-ish, inside Sun at the time) and never lost a single byte ever since. Computers and hard drives have died but zfs just rocks on.

Ok? But the other RTX models are fine - I know I had a 3070 until recently. Yes, there is a continuum of models with progressively more power. That’s good - the high end blazes a trail for the low end. The architecture that supports AI also support gaming. It’s the same overall architecture just different scales and price points. That’s good, it ensures enormous investment at the high end which is scaled down for different price points. If it were not for gaming and crypto and others driving money at nvidia they would have a lot less capital to dedicate towards improving the architecture. The fact they continue to drive forward real time ray tracing and other features is indicative of their continued focus on gaming.

Tesla was informed in August 2022 that it would run down children in the road [1].

Tesla was informed in November 2022 that it would ignore “Do Not Enter” and “Road Closed” signs [2].

Tesla was informed in November 2022 that it would ignore school bus stop signs [3].

Tesla was subsequently informed in November 2022 it would still run down children in the road [4].

Tesla was subsequently informed in February 2023 that it would still do all of these things [5].

In March 2023 a North Carolina student exiting a school bus with the stop sign extended was hit by a Tesla in ADAS mode [6]. ADAS mode usage was confirmed by Tesla in the NHTSA SGO database labeled ID 13781-5100 [7].

These safety defects continue to be present as noted in July 2023 [8].

They continue to be present along with critical deficiencies in the Tesla DMS system as noted in August 2023 [9].

FSD is critically deficient and has seen no meaningful improvement in critical showstopping deficiencies for months. Some of which have caused demonstrable avoidable harm. This is unacceptable for a safety-critical product.

> The processor only does this prediction with conditional branches

This sounds... wrong? Unless ARM64 is designed in an absurd way?

I'd love to see the full disassembly; something seems funny here. If it was x86 I would say it's a conditional move causing this, but I don't know what's going on on ARM.
During the Renaissance/Enlightenment, there was a lot of discussion among intellectuals on how to best keep notebooks/journals. A widely used system was to carry a small pocket notebook which was filled logbook style, with things entered as they came up. The material from the pocket notebook would later be transcribed to topically arranged journals. I believe I've read reference to this practice going back to Classical times. Given the frequent discussion of jornaling on HN, I'm surprised at the lack of discussion of this method.
More like air offense.

But in reality it was just technically feasible. That's what enabled the behavior, not a few million Robin hoods coming together to do the right thing.

Similarly I feel creators need to make it impossible to have their work stolen for AI if possible. It will be tough though. They have half the world against them it seems.

It's a problem if you're going to call everything that goes south a ponzi scheme, because it elides failure modes and dulls peoples ability to distingush and analyze bad situations. Is social security, for example, a ponzi scheme?
> I have a Mastodon account, but I don't love it, for the same reasons I didn't like Twitter. In addition, I think that way of consuming content is generally like watching mainstream TV or listening to radio with ads. You're letting a bunch of people who aren't really that important to you, or qualified to do the job, be the content curators for you.

Isn't that the opposite of Mastodon? The _default_ Mastodon home feed is only people you explicitly follow and posts they re-share (and it's easy to hide re-posts if desired). There is no suggested content.

It's basically as close as social media can get to an RSS feed.
For anyone that doesn't understand why this matters, the CPU still needs to prepare the full scene before sending it over to the GPU for polygons to get rasterized and shaders to get calculated. Most of the time the CPU does all of the physics as well. So even if GPU render time goes to 0ms, 2ms spent by the CPU per frame means 500fps is the best you'll get without a better CPU or better code. And I suspect game devs aren't looking to shrink their budgeted CPU time just so someone benchmarking can see 1000fps.

IRC is dead in any meaningful way, though. It's a decent technology that's lost to services with all those essential features. We also used to have great conversations while riding bikes with our friends when we were kids. Does that mean employers would be served to hold all of their meetings on bikes?
I’m scratching my head wondering why there was a passenger list at all for a private flight, and beyond that, why he would put his name on it if he were actually on the flight, given he uses doubles and disguises and fake names. Was he over-confident and sloppy?

You might not know. How are you validating the integrity of every file regularly?

In the 90s I lost some files to corruption which went unnoticed for years and propagated to every backup, so by the time I went looking for the file I had years worth of backups of those files, all corrupt. This is one of the reasons zfs is such a happy place.

> us JS programmers play fast & loose with "a little filter" here, "a little map" there, and end up with death by a thousand allocations.

That's because speed isn't always top priority. Readability is very high on the list.

I would rather have a slightly slower .map or .filter in a chain than a harder to read nested for or while loop.
It's nice using these to mark less-likely, but latency sensitive, paths, which is something that profiler guided optimization can't do.
> could it be that a lot of companies only optimize for hardware that has the largest market share?

Yes, but also Nvidia partners directly with companies too (money can/does change hands).

Now the flip side is: so does AMD.
That might still be OK if that path literally should never happen in normal operation, but us used, e.g., to handle an error, or at least log it, if the impossible happens because the software is deployed in some unexpected configuration
Isn't all of this explained by the fact that we have a supermassive black hole at the middle of the galaxy?

We perceive distant time to run slow because we're falling into a black hole.

This also explains a lot of the expansion observations . . .they're not moving away from each other . . .our local perspective is shifting so that the ENTIRE outside universe seems to be doing that.
And what does it say about copyright? Genuinely curious.
Great to read this back-to-back with the takedown on the GAN image generation offering also on HN.

The point of most critiques/polemics on AI Snake oil isn't on effectiveness of AI in context. It's about mis-application, belief its AGI, belief the answers are right, and belief it has no downsides. It's often mis-applied, It's absolutely not, and not even on the road to AGI, the answers are not always right, and it has massive social downsides, employment included.

It has upsides, sure. It's not the job of snake oil warners to catalog the good, they're pointing out the abysmally bad, in the current AI hype-wave.

Depending on how severe your sleep apnea is, there are oral appliances that can help with mild to moderate cases of sleep apnea. Could be an alternative to a CPAP machine. It’s like wearing a bulky retainer at night.

That said, you’ll want to go to a dentist who specializes in sleep apnea and is able to test / fit the oral appliance properly. (Source: father is dentist who specializes in TMJ pain and sleep apnea).
