Tell HN: Netwrck.com OpenAI Account Closed with 0 Notice
Hi all i run https://netwrck.com
Just had our OpenAI account closed with no notice.
Luckily we are also using Palm and https://text-generator.io in the event of an outage so there is no user impact.

Hard to trust these companies to stay there for you.
OpenAI hasn't said anything about why.

I have two theories:

Users playing text adventures or "Unix users killing processes" that OpenAI considers too violent or users "talking dirty" to the AI Chatbots caused the account to be cancelled.

OpenAI stopped wanting to give me free credits from the Microsoft for startups plan and decided to instead cancel the account.

Interested to hear your thoughts and i'll let you know as this progresses.
I've only ever heard U-U-I-D, but I've also heard GUID pronounced as a single syllable like Gwid.
Autark comes from ancient greek αυτάρκης (same in modern greek) which is made up from two words αυτός (he) & αρκώ (v) which means suffice, so self-sufficient.

I wasn't aware that this word existed in English but I love coming across words like these that I am not aware of, though immediately understand.
Another big reason is that the limitations actually make you more creative.
I learned producing EDM in the FL Studio era and in a sense it's a godsend you don't have to buy all that expensive hardware. On the other hand modern DAWs give you so much freedom its somewhat exhausting. The entry level to produce technical genres like DnB are extremely high nowadays.
Not everyone is.
One of the marvelous things about English is that there are no official gatekeepers who determine correct English. It will happily absorb foreign or regional words and concepts. For instance, schadenfreude is probably now a proper English word despite its foreign origin. Often idioms and memes are adopted and propagated through popular entertainment. So if you want people to adopt and use "do the needful", one way is to write a popular and ensuring classic!
Low or moderate beer consumption, with or without alcohol, showed positive effects on health by stimulating the development of a healthy microbiota.

Though there are plenty of other things that are good for gut health having nothing to do with beer. I don't know a lot about beer. I'm basically a non-drinker. But I do know a lot about gut health.

If you drink beer and you want to feel good about it, cool. I have no problem with that. But there are lots of other ways to support gut health if that is your real goal.
We think we know everything but we don't, and never will.
Despite all the fancy rendering-tech features, Unreal Engine's "core design ideas" are still deeply rooted in the late 90s and early 2000's (just as Unity's, CryEngine/Lumberyard/O3DE's or whatever it is called nowadays - and most of the other big engines that survived from that era). That's also exactly what I wrote above, refcounting is usually entangled so deeply into those engine designs that it can't be fixed without a complete rewrite (Unity attempted it with their new ECS system, but I have no idea how successful that was, AFAIK it still feels like bolted on to the side).
Yes, there are a few.
Considering that the giant screens in movie theaters use 2K or 4K projectors[0], a TV screen with 8K resolution seems like a pointless marketing gimmick that deserves to die.

I always recommend The Dogs of War as a first Forsyth novel, and No Comebacks as a first Forsyth reader.

No Comebacks:

1. Are all short stories, so good for the reader who is not yet invested in Forsyth

2. Starts with the titular story, which (IMO) is a pretty good capture of Forsyth plot and story-telling.
ActivityPub instances can relay messages, but generally they don't unless it's a dedicated relay that instances have to specifically sign up to receive messages from. Most instances are not subscribed to any relays, but only receives messages addressed to at least one user on that instance.
Agree, it is very much a dark tragi-comedy.
Yeah, it's one of the Classic DnB/Jungle breaks.
Like on this one:

Deep Blue - The Helicopter Tune (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vbnxrccBQQ)

classic Jungle and Drum & Bass Breaks are

Lyn Collins - Think

Bobby Byrd - Hot Pants (I'm Coming)

Incredible Bongo Band - Apache

Blowfly - Sesame Street

James Brown - Soul Pride

James Brown - Funky Drummer

I recommend Tim Cant's "A Beginner's Guide To Jungle Breakbeats" [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuaKtIjSY_A]
Still highly recommend the fully contoured options. I have 2 Advantage, an ErgoDox, and a custom built split contoured similar to Advantage 360.

I have an incurable genetic disorder. I take extreme measures daily to address it. I have no problem with taking appropriate precautions in the face of issues.

But I see no reason to wallow in the negativity in this way. It does not appear to be curtailing anyone's carbon footprint.

All it appears to do is prevent us from having meaningful, constructive conversations because any attempt to talk about solutions gets shot down as "not enough" and "won't make any real difference" and "we are all doomed anyway, so why bother?"
They stay in their caravans. The set up their camp anywhere they like, on a large parking lot or a field somewhere. There are some places provided by the government, but typically that space is not enough so they set up anywhere, but are often removed by the police after a while as the permanent habitants and local government gets fed up with them as they litter or in general are in the way as they use land supposed to be used for other things.

That's a bit too contemplative and resigned IMHO. But I understand and am facing the same questions. How can I help? Is there even something I can do at my small scale except using more my bike, using less water and sort my trash to recycle more.
I have been doing targeted exercising for a longer period. It helped, but didn't solve my issues.

I believe in a multi-faceted approach. Exercises are great, even necessary. But avoiding pronation in the other 55 minutes of an hour, letting the blood flow, is also useful.

I use a Glove80 keyboard, and even after 4 months I'm not back to my normal typing speed! This has cost me a fair bit of productivity, and was stressful at times. Almost feeling like I'd suffered a bit of brain damage, where I could picture what I wanted to do, but be unable to type it out.

Having the modifier keys in the thumb cluster feels a lot less awkward than using my left-hand little finger at odd angles. And I like the fit and finish and customisation.

Overall though, I think I would have been better served by a regular qwerty, not columnar, split keyboard. Maybe my middleaged brain ain't plastic enough any more.

<small>Plus I think the benefits of columnar are oversold. If I naturally curl my fingers in and out, they kinda fan in and out, rather move in parallel straight lines. And the right hand side of a regular keyboard matches that movement pretty well. The left hand side is backwards of course.
Confusing 'Show HN' post - title should perhaps say 'Archived - use VS Code' ?

You just said yourself that hash collisions don't matter as "because upon viewing the image that matched, if it's not csam, it doesn't matter"

So when you say "a hash alone is meaningless, since in court there must be a presentation of evidence", you'd just present the image to court.

The hash is the trigger to call the authorities they handle the rest

And with a userbase the size of apple and people as pissy as reddit, you want to completely exclude a possibility of collisions or you'll get a repeat of the scenario we got in 2021

Surely the answer is to give those markets access to cheaper solar/wind/renewable power, and not to just burn the oil ourselves?

Once those markets have functioning solar/renewable industries of their own they will need less and less fossil fuel.
From the article (I didn't read the paper):

>> Calculating the ratio of cesium isotopes in the samples, they found that nuclear weapons testing accounted for 10 to 68 percent of the contamination.

Using that to say boars in Austria and Southern Germany are not radioactively contaminated because of Chernobyl is a huge stretch, one not even the quoted scientist makes...

And that

>> (Interestingly, the deer do not fancy deer truffles so much despite the name.)

explains why deer aee much less contaminated round here. Also, the truffles in question arw somewhere 20-40 cm underground. Caesium seeps slowly, the article says only one millimeter per year (cudos for WP to use metric units). The article does follow that by claiming the truffpes absorbed the 60 year old caesoum by now, while the one from Chernobyl only makes its way there ny now (Chernobyl was roughly 40 years ago, assuming only one mm per year wpupd mean not even the testing caesoum would be at tjose depths by now.). I'll go with tue scientists quote, that says that even without Chernobyl, some boar might be unsave to eat today. Because, you now, somewhere between 90 and 12 % of the contamination does come from Chernobyl (or rather it is caused by reactor-related caesoum isotopes, so fair to assume it is mainly from Chernobyl).

Another quote:

>> Some of those differences may be because of localized factors, such as winds, animal migration or subsurface water flow.

No shit. If we want boar, we have to go all of 20 km north, were it is all save, save enough to not even require testing. Locally, hunters want to be paid upfront to hunt boar because they cannot sell it profitably (every boar requires testing, paid for by the hunter, and the 88% number of unsave meat samples frol the article doesn't surprise me at all).

So, the whole news is: radioactive contamination in Auszrian and Bavarian boar is not only caised by Chernobyl. Intresting, for sure. One fact the article ignores, it might be in the study, is the fact we didn't have any nuclear weapons testing done nearby. So, why is the whole nuclear boars thing so prevelant only arpund here, in places we cn clearly trace fallout from Chernobyl to (througj weather patterns at the time)? All in all, a really, really bad science journalism article... Lazy, bad arguments, not cotation of sources (instead we have interview quotes, two of the three people interviewed weren't even part of the study!).
Complete tangent, but does anyone remember the online puzzle ‘in from the cold’ or its follow-up ‘torment?

Not an amen. I noticed a lot of people refer to breakbeats in general as "amen". The "correct" term for drum breaks and solos of old funk and soul records is "Breakbeat" as defined by a lot of Hip Hop Artists. A dead and flagged comment in this thread mentioned the "Ultimate Beats & Breaks" records, which are the basis for HipHop from 1988 onwards and of course UK Hardcore/Jungle/DnB.
Do you also agree that talking with experienced people(if your tech stack involves AWS Lambda, talk with an someone who is an expert on AWS Lambda) matter more, specifically for the job of a CTO?
They aren't tested, because previous testing showed it is no problem. Not even in Bavaria all boar is tested, only certain rwgions. Even there so, one couod make the case of not testing and just disposing hunted boar as it almost completely unsave to eat (above regulated thresholds).
> but which is not that realistic for many production workloads where docs are updated/added in near real-time.

it really depends on how real time you need the search to be tho.

What i've seen is a green/blue lucene index. The updates happen on one (let's say the blue), while searches happen on the other (green). The segment merging happens periodically for the blue (or even smarter, let's say, after some known amount of time and updates combined), and then the index are switched. Depending on how often new documents come in, and "real time" you need, this may be sufficient.
Wikipedia has inherently broken system. It does not use primary sources. So as such if you get enough media publications to agree on something you can push that as narrative to there even if it was absolute lie.

In my country DVD rental is different set of laws and rules, and when you used to rent DVD, you did not need to go to Disney's DVD rental to rent Marvel movies, and to HBO's rental house to rent DC movies. Life was much simplier backdays. Of course now you don't even need to move a muscle, other than finger, to get new movie in 0 seconds, but also you need to pay monthly huge amount of money for the 3 movies you watch monthly, because you have have kids, work etc.

All scenarios where we rely entirely on renewables assume we can scale storage (or very special locales where there is abundant hydro or reliable year-round favourable weather).

But to make knowledge scalable storage simply does not exist beyond maybe 48hrs. It may well come, but it's not here.

For some reason some people assume it is not a problem.
My point was not that it might not be important, just that you probably do not want to assign a new name to a data structure just because you use a different representation. If the implementation would have been in a different language, then adding parent pointers into the B-tree would have been less of a concern and the representation with an array would maybe never have come up. It would be weird to say that this CRDT is based on a B-Tree with parent pointers, unless you implement it in Rust, then it is based on a G-tree.
> Cesium seeps very slowly through the soil, sometimes only one millimeter per year, he said. Deer truffles, located between 20 and 40 centimeters, have already absorbed the “older” cesium from six decades ago. The “younger” cesium from Chernobyl has likely not fully integrated or is just now integrating at the soil depths where the mushrooms are located.

> But it could be bad news when the cesium from Chernobyl does reach the mushrooms — radioactivity levels could go up higher. “There’s a chance that the levels will actually go up instead of going down as everybody anticipated,” Steinhauser said.

> But Steinhauser said humans, including wild boar consumers, probably don’t have anything to worry about because they would have to eat “insane” amounts of the animal to show meaningful amounts of radioactive material. Plus, wild boar available through stores and official channels in Germany are tested and regulated.
Well, it's less that the law led to difficulties and more that the law ignited pre-existing bigotry, similar to some poor white Americans being opposed to welfare out of biases against poor black Americans thanks to a successful (implicitly racial) hysteria about "welfare queens".

The Prussians were "fine"[0] with travelers as long as they were second-class citizens who didn't have access to welfare. As soon as citizenship stopped being a requirement, they were no longer fine with them and "they just want to live her to get our money" became a compelling narrative to fuel the bigotry against them.

As a German it hurts to admit this, but Europeans are still extremely bigoted against travelers (and yes, if you prompt them, they will have very good rational reasons and cite crime statistics, which may sound familiar to Americans and suffers from the same limitations of surface-level analysis of social problems). It's just that we successfully deported and murdered enough of them in Germany that the discourse usually only involves Sinti and Roma people nowadays.

Low profile switches are not compatible with MX keyboards, because all the dimensions are different. There are “mid profile” switches made by GMTX and perhaps others, which can be swapped into an MX board. (The Kailh mid-profile switches are not MX compatible.)

Two random thoughts:

- why is there `safeParse`? Why is parsing not safe by default? Have an `unsafeParse` as an escape hatch, not the other way around.

- the imperative check for `success` seems unfortunate. Then again, I am familiar with pydantic from Python, which seems awfully similar to Zod, and there you'd get an Exception on failure which you'd have to catch. Some would call that uglier (I don't). Point being, I don't know of a better alternative, but sure hope native liquid/dependent types wouldn't suffer from this anymore

> Personally, my wrists start to hurt after only an hour or two of use of a "normal" keyboard and mouse.

IME, what has worked for me is to make the interval of the "regular breaks" on the order of one hour. The break isn't much, just get up, grab a glass of water or whatever, moving my arms and wrists a bit, then sit back down.

> To be clear, the goal is not exactly to move less - it's to keep the wrists and shoulders in a neutral, less-stressful position.

I fully agree with this.

The only hardware issue that couldn't be solved with this approach and required a new keyboard was the wrists-angled-up situation imposed by a 2012-era Apple keyboard (don't know if they've evolved since).

I've always refused to type for longer than a few minutes on keyboards that don't at least lay flat on the table. And for the keyboards I use every day (when sitting at my home or work desk) I've insisted on keyboards with a wrist rest and no number pad. I have a TKL one at home, and I think even that may be too large. My "75%" (laptop style, with the arrows under Enter and HOME / END / etc in a column to the right of Enter) is perfect.
