There is still a lot of surface coal deposits left. Big open pit mines in Wyoming and Germany. It isn’t the best coal, and is far from areas with ores. We will never mine it since would cause catastrophic warming.

I recall seeing those on the shelves of a local Egghead Software store. They had one open so you could browse through the manuals. Wet dream territory.

Pirating the software wasnt hard, but the books were really worth the cost.
Sleep mode, typically. Do you think the slow discharge might have been a factor?
Yeah, sd cards that you haven't put through extensive crash testing simply can't be trusted. I used to have a jar of sd cards that didn't survive testing.
That's odd, I'm in Pennsylvania and have had multiple fraudulent purchases with my accounts over the years. Every single time, the bank put the money back in my account within days and I never heard anything more about it.
Consumerlabs, consumer reports, rtings, and which.co.uk seem to be the only standardized independent review bodies I'm aware of.
Adnauseam does not achieve the goal, but I know how to fix it. First of all, clicking every ad is easily detectable. People should click occasionally, but from many devices/IPs. It is not achievable with low number of users -> bootstrapping problem. Bootstrapping can be solved by incentivising users.

Consider this scheme:

- A marketplace for fraud clicks advertised as a way to ditch competitors

- Anyone can pay a fee and point to a certain ad that must be fraud-clicked

- Users with an extension will be directed to this ad in background, lust like Adnauseum does

- They will receive a fraction of the fee

This scheme could bring in missing economic incentives for the users.

It took me a long time to come around to using ad blockers. For a long time, my feeling was, "if you don't like ads don't use the web. You owe it to those websites to look at their ads".

But then the ads just go so resource intense that I came around and finally installed an ad blocker.

This however still feels one step too far. The ad blocker protects me from the resource utilization of ads. But if you're already blocking the ads, then the tracking shouldn't work anyway.

How do you justify using their resources unnecessarily? Doesn't something like this make you no better than the advertiser?
There is no doubt that it's co-opting baja or rally, but it's bringing the sport and suspensions (so to speak) to non-arid places. It's almost a manifestation of Excitebike but with 3000lbs baja trucks on F1 tracks. I love it, personally.
I think the conversation is mixed here. Baldur’s Gate 3 was just released with first class Vulkan support. Steam is pushing hard with MoltenVK on macOS and native Vulkan drivers on the Steam Deck.

I agree there are likely a lot of game devs who like Metal, but it would appear there are a lot of heavy hitters backing Vulkan.

As well, in film, many render engines prefer Vulkan due to the flexibility to write complicated compute shaders with complex command buffers. I experienced this first hand working with VFX studios in my day job.

I think the story is mixed, there is a big interest in Vulkan still.
> The answer is that they are spying on other countries. That usually hasn’t required warrants.

This isn’t correct AFAICT. This is the justification they give.

This was one of the arguments put forward in 2017 after the Supreme Court ruling on the presidential surveillance program. A huge amount of international telecommunications traffic flows through the systems they’re trying to harvest data from and they have a hard time differentiating foreign communications from domestic communications. So they slurp it all up.

But they also intentionally slurp up (or at least during the PSP did slurp up) “metadata” of U.S. citizens.

And they don’t seem to have a problem querying these databases for U.S. citizen’s communications data from “the database” if they feel it’s relevant to crime. Something that they could just say is off limits and taints all downstream evidence.

There are a lot of legal and mental gymnastics at play with these programs. But it does seem like the end goal is to get access to domestic communications content.
Expect doctors and the related industries and bodies like the useless FDA to fight hard against that. As usual.

Interestingly, as someone with aphantasia they're absolutely critical for me - because I'm not able to visualise the relationships without a diagram in from of me to "see" (This was the same for me with more abstract undergraduate maths, too). Given just the bullet points I find it hard to conceptualise the relationships between them without quickly forgetting the points I'm not directly loooking at.

I echo your point that diagrams are not the solution for everyone (and that a multimodal representation of relationships is clearly best), I just find it fascinating how even with something as specific as aphantasia, there is still so much variability as to how it's experienced.

Regarding atomicity, do you rsync from the live filesystem or from the hidden .zfs/snapshot dir?

My impetus for swapping to a send-based approach from an rsync-based approach of running an incremental (just from the normal non-snapshot filesystem view) then taking a snap on the far side was encountering corrupted encrypted containers. If rsync ran while a container was mounted and being written to, it'd get an inconsistent view of the underlying file and produce a nonsense diff, resulting in an unmountable container in the backup. This doesn't happen with send because it has a consistent view of the blocks it needs to replicate, but as I was writing this I realized that running rsync from zfs's view of the snapshot might get around that. Of course, at that point it's probably easiest to just use send.

There's a drastically simpler way to save the Internet Archive: Get Brewster Kahle out. He doesn't believe in copyright, keeps flaunting his utter disregard for it, and ignoring the advice of his supporters telling him not to do stupid stuff that irks big copyright entities.

A good steward of the Internet Archive would strike agreements with organizations like the RIAA, which would likely even financially support a preservation mission if not directly coupled to infringement. Notice how museums often broadcast and showcase copyrighted works without issue? It's because they work in tandem with copyright holders instead of claiming they don't have to.

Copyright holders can't abide infringement, but they can rubber stamp behavior that complements them instead of fights them: I suspect the RIAA would pay for record archival if the IA had an agreement for what works were abandoned enough they could publicly distribute and if there were terms for researcher access to the whole library.

It depends on your needs. For instance, do you want to host an API or do you want to have a front end like chatGPT? Chances are, text-generation-webui [1] should get you pretty close to hosting it yourself. You simply clone the repo, download the model from huggingface using the included helper (download-model.py) and fire up the server with server.py. You can connect to it by SSH port tunneling on port 7860 (there's other way like Ngrok but SSH tunneling is the easiest and secure).

As for hosting, I found that runpod [2] has been the cheapest (not affiliated, just a user). All the other services tend to add up more than them when you include bandwidth and storage. There's some tutorials online [3] but a lot of them use the quantized version. You should be able to fit the original 70B with "load_in_8bit" on one A100 80GB.

What's the use of the product then ? Fraud, theft?
Love it. I did FLL for 2 years in middle school, then FRC all 4 years of high school. I was really lucky to work with some amazing people on that team, and we took a "good not great" team to "fringe world championship contender" in a couple years. AFAIK it's still an elite team today. It was one of the most important things I've ever done. It set me on a path to where I am today professionally, and I learned a lot about how to work in fast-moving ad-hoc team environments.
I think slow collapse would be the best case. It would give time for technologies like blacksmithing to flourish. It would also mean that advanced technology could be used if couldn’t be produced. It would also mean civilization that could have reason to save books. Finally, there is an advantage to knowledge, technology, and science. We forget that pre-industrial technology can be produced on small scale, and that musket and steel armor is a huge advantage.

In a hard collapse, all of that would be lost trying to survive. Books would be burned for heat, electronics forgotten, and blacksmiths killed accidentally.

That seems like a fantastic explanation -- can I ask a couple of questions, since you seem to be able to explain so well?

Because I've never found much success with meditation, but the split between present-experience and self-representation has always seemed... well, easy to me. This idea of them being "fused" is only something I discovered in discussions around meditation. But then that makes me wonder if I misunderstand it.

Conceptually, I can understand the present-experience meditation aims at as simply experiencing the senses. Which I'll do sometimes, especially outside in nature. It's nice. I've never had any trouble quieting down my thoughts, as long as I'm not in an immediately stressful situation.

But it's also never "changed" me in any way. It doesn't make me feel like there's "more to me", nor does it feel like it's some kind of desperately needed respite from my self-representation. I rather like the challenges of everyday life. Even if they're not "so important", it gives me meaning and purpose in a way that, well, I can't find any comparable meaning or purpose in focusing solely on present-experience.

So I guess my question is, am I missing some aspect of meditation? Am I misunderstanding something here? Because what I've been struggling to understand is why letting go of self-representation is seen as good or a goal. You're left with your sensory experience, but I don't understand what's meant to be so profound about that. It's never led me to any ethical realizations the way reading moral philosophy has, nor has it led me to any therapeutic realizations the way psychotherapy has -- nor do I really understand the mechanism by which it could. But I feel like I might be missing a piece of the puzzle?
Note that Experian runs their own protection racket called “Credit Lock” that is different from a freeze. It costs money. The freeze doesn’t cost money only because congress mandated that it be free. That’s right, these fuckwits are so irresponsible and greedy that congress actually got off their sorry asses and made a tiny piece of legislation that actually protects consumers.

I tend to do my own research, often on Reddit or YouTube, rather than trust sites like Wirecutter. I’m often able to find much more individualized information on a wider variety of products.

I think people have gotten smarter and know to treat any listicle with a grain of salt. Although Wirecutter may vet their content better than anyone else, many readers probably assume they’re reading a standard affiliate-link listicle.

It's important not to confuse "I don't care if your company lives or dies" with "I'm going to be a bad worker." I'm an amazing worker.

As I said, I care about my professional reputation. When/if the company dies I want every single one of my former coworkers fighting to get me hired at wherever they land. You don't get former coworkers clamoring to get you in at their new shop by being a bad worker.

Companies want me to work for them, and former coworkers want me to work with them. I am just not emotionally invested in the companies who pay me a wage, I'm going to set reasonable boundaries on my time, and I'm generally going to respond rationally to incentives. Responding rationally to incentives includes considering if the extra work required to achieve a particular bonus is worth the effort, often it is not.

I use sanoid to do basically the same thing as this, and was interested in giving it a shot to see if it was more hands off but it's definitely a more complex setup to begin with, given you have to setup your own SSL certs etc, not sure why they wouldn't just use SSH transport for this like everything else.
This might not help and might sound new age / abstract: meditation is not continuous focus, but is about choosing to focus, letting thoughts pass, and when you recognize you are distracted to consciously let the distracting thought go, and return to focusing on what you intended to.
Do you have any experience with sanoid/syncoid? What does Zrepl give you over them?
You're going to be battling with your attention a lot in the beginning. I think just making a habit of it regardless and putting in the time is necessary.

You could always go on a retreat — you'll have very limited options for distractions. It might sound like an extreme thing to do, and maybe it is, but I did it without much prior practice and got a lot out of it.

In addition to coal that I mentioned above, it should be possible to have industrial society with renewables. It wouldn’t be as high energy as ours or as industrialized. But if they knew the science and some technology they could skip the big iron phase.

Early power could come from burning wood and windmills. That doesn’t have enough power for smelting iron, but there is more than lots of iron, Electricity could come from concentrated solar, wind, hydro, or geothermal. Nuclear would be the big jump.

...or we work on a more diplomatic world and stop pushing ahead with our hatred of each other and get back to working together as a species to build a better world for our children?

I actually don't know why I'm supposed to hate China, or Russia I don't though. I understand these countries have problems but so do all countries. I think working for peace is the way to go, not fabbing our own chips and encouraging tribalism...

I truly feel deeply that the world we're moving towards will actually send us "backwards" and not forwards. We'll end up isolationists, all technology and economic progress will slowdown at a time when the developing worlds population is already declining quite rapidly, I don't think this will end well?

Tell HN: Discrepancy in Google's Account Inactivity Policy
So Google sent users an email about their updated inactivity policy, and listed some exemptions:

There are some exceptions to this policy.
Examples include: a Google Account with YouTube
channels, videos or comments; an account that has
a gift card with a monetary balance; or an
account that has a published application, for
example, one that hosts an app on the Google Play
store.

The YouTube line sounds really great, and that would be the one I'd bank on if somehow I left an account fallow for two years.

Unfortunately, it's a lie. Their published policy has no such exception: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/12418290#zippy=%2Cexceptions-to-this-policy

A few minutes on the chat with a Google One support agent was able to more or less confirm that the email's not worth the pixels it's printed on, and the published policy is the only one that matters. Will a correction be forthcoming? Don't hold your breath.

Yeah, definitely not pretraining. I've been referring to fine-tuning as training, since that's what's happening when you "fine-tune" a llama model.
I do a version of this that doesn't require restore at all, I have three separate physical systems that all share a VPN across the world, and wherever I am at any given time zfs snapshots are syncing across that VPN to those three physical systems depending on which one is the primary I'm using at any given point in time. They also use the VPN layer to check if they have peer status on a faster local network like the wifi or LAN and use that instead for the snapshot transfers if so.

If for any reason any one of these systems either is destroyed or is no longer master, picking up from where I left off is as simple as picking another system up and marking it "master". No restore process, no changes, nothing at all, and it picks up from exactly where I left off when I was working on the other system. Means I can just grab my EDC laptop and stuff it in a bag not knowing how long I'll be out or where I'll be going and also know that it will be completely up to date with my datasets, or I can grab my desktop replacement laptop and its enormous external disk if I am going to be on a different continent for an extended period of time and want full geographic dataset locality. At no point in time does any of the above require the manual running of any process or replication or anything like that.

Reprovision and restore would take a whole lot longer than this, wouldn't give the abilities that it provides, and the above is only possible because of zfs snapshot replication.

I also use a USB C external SSD that is a member of a ZFS mirror and a md raid group that is bootable, so even if my EDC laptop were to spontaneously combust, I could immediately get up and running on any similar laptop with roughly comparable hardware simply by putting that SSD in and booting from it, then adding the SSD on the laptop to the zfs mirror / md raid group.
As a general rule of thumb, any publicly-traded company of sufficient size becomes beholden to shareholders and shareholders only, out of necessity.

Except there is a reason. Encrypting email has very little to no benefit, since it is transmitted in plaintext and usually stored in plaintext on the recipient's side, your emails almost always exist in unencrypted form. On top of that it has major usability drawbacks, for example you cant ask the server to search emails for you anymore - all emails have to be downloaded on all your devices to be able to search - which is what skiff does. It will be okay at the start, and progressively get slower and use more space on your drive the more you use it.
