I think that you're right in that to be a pirate, you must commit your crimes on the "high seas".

Consider 18 U.S.C. § 1651:

> Whoever, on the high seas, commits the crime of piracy as defined by the law of nations, and is afterwards brought into or found in the United States, shall be imprisoned for life.

And 18 U.S.C. § 1652:

> Whoever, being a citizen of the United States, commits any murder or robbery, or any act of hostility against the United States, or against any citizen thereof, on the high seas, under color of any commission from any foreign prince, or state, or on pretense of authority from any person, is a pirate, and shall be imprisoned for life.

But the Oakland Estuary is no little lake in Oklahoma. It is part of the Navigable Waters of the United States, and maritime crimes are federal crimes that the US Navy and Coast Guard are authorized to investigate and/or prevent, and can take suspects into custody to be delivered to the nearest federal agent for prosecution in federal court.

Stealing a boat in the Navigable Waters of the United States:

18 U.S. Code § 2280:

> A person who unlawfully and intentionally—
(A) seizes or exercises control over a ship by force or threat thereof or any other form of intimidation; ...

> shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both; and if the death of any person results from conduct prohibited by this paragraph, shall be punished by death or imprisoned for any term of years or for life.

The feds generally leave all this stuff to the local police. But they don't have to. I have a feeling that they'd stay out of these cases unless/until it becomes too big to ignore.
Yes, I was specifically referring to apps that use native code. I wasn't aware though that Google has been interfering with that.
This post barely makes any attempt to actually argue for its premise, that model weight providers should "not police uses, no matter how awful they are."

All I see is a lot of references to "vigilante justice." This metaphor is poor because real vigilante justice is putative.

It's also like saying no one should act on any behavior unless it is illegal. I for one regularly act on ethical issues in my life that are not strictly illegal, and among those actions is that I don't care to associate with people who do not act on ethical issues. This is how most people operate, we primarily maintain social order and decency not through criminal law and regulation, but because people apply ethical rules throughout their life. Imagine interacting with someone who when critiqued simply replies "yeah but it's not illegal."

The only serious argument I see is:

"once infrastructure providers start applying their own judgements, pressure will mount to censor more and more things"

Avoiding pressure is just... cowardly? This is advocacy for "don't bother telling me about what this work is being used for because I won't give a shit, but it's noble because my complete apathy is on purpose."

Lastly, while I generally don't like slippery-slope arguments, there is also a slippery slope counter-argument here. With no restrictions firms will not release their models at all for general use and only provide full products that have acceptable impact. This was Google's approach until OpenAI decided to let other people actually use their model and Google had to stop sitting on what they had. Model restrictions give providers an opportunity to be open with their work while still maintaining some of the ethical standards those providers voluntarily and willingly hold themselves to.
To clarify, I mean other server side tools that have been available a long time and had bugs ironed out. React Server stuff just came out recently, and still has a long way to go i guess.
How do you feel about terms of service or use contracts where individuals can freely enter into in order to use products?
This could save alot of money on Replicate.ai

Especially if you are charging your users the same 1,000% markup while your own costs have been cut into 1/3rd and deliver results faster

Absolutely. I’m actually Czech, so they’re my no. 1 choice anyway, but I’m currently on vacation in Italy and the maps are still great and very useful.
I also fondly remember reading this as a teenager :-)
No one is penalised for their race. Groups are promoted due to their race. This isn’t the same thing, though from the perspective of your ‘score 70’ patient, I do agree that it’s splitting hairs.

What’s important to the scenario though, is that at present, Māori and Pacific Islanders get seen less by specialists, less clinical tests, less treatment and then worse outcomes. They die several years earlier than their Pakeha peers. It’s incredible that this is acceptable, but here we are.

Māori and Pacific Islanders are being discriminated against by the system, it’s just that their race demerit points are not nicely documented.

So getting promoted on lists by a couple of points is an attempt to even it up via forced functionality.

I don’t think you and I are ever going to agree that positive description should be used.

Other things are being tried. Part of the massive and overdue restructuring that’s underway to our healthcare system is going to be interesting to watch. “In each local community, partnerships between Iwi-Māori Partnership Boards, Health New Zealand’s regional and district teams, and the wider community will ensure Māori voices are heard, embedded in plans and services, and that health equity for Māori is non-negotiable.” [1].

We will see how it goes. The structural changes so far have been rather painful and seem clumsy when viewed from my adjacent seat.

But you're still morally responsible when you set up an automated system to do an awful thing - if I set up an automated gun to shoot everybody who comes through the door because they might be criminals, it's the same as if I indiscriminately shot them with my own hand.

This is wrong. Companies only need to “protect” trademarks by going after companies that offer similar products using that trademarked name. Unless a company gets a service mark, trademarks also only apply in certain categories.

This was massive overreach by ARM. And frankly it was really inappropriate of the hosting provider to interfere with the websites.

- 8 years of professional development experience as a full stack developer.

- Most familiar (use most days): Python, FastAPI, Ruby, Rails, Sinatra, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Linux, MacOS, Docker, AWS (EC2, RDS, Elastic Beanstalk, IAM), Git

- Familiar (Use most months): ElasticSearch, CloudSearch, Tailwind, Vue

- Hobbies (Used on at least one completed project over the past five years): Go, Zig, C, C++, Rust, Phoenix, NoSQL, MongoDB, (probably more, but these were the ones that came to mind.)

My day job has me performing two main functions:

- Building full stack web development systems. I generally lean more towards writing backend code, and documenting our infrastructure. UI is my weakest area. This role has me working in datasets with ~1 billion row tables, and search indexes with ~100 million documents. Since we're a small company (~8 developers), I have been a major part of the architecture of our systems over the past 8 years. We've got five separate core businesses that our dev team supports, and I've been a part of architecting and implementing all of them. I would prefer to focus more on backend development in a future role.

- Creating one-off scripts or processes to assist in business functions. These tend to involve quickly reverse engineering undocumented web APIs we have permission to use, and querying them for our customers. At their simplest, these are a mix of writing some SQL and a few HTTP requests. At their most complicated, they have involved designing and implementing a tree structure to accurately model the business domain, and then pulling data about these structures from relevant public APIs.

- This month, I reduced the cost of a company's AWS CloudSearch spend by 80% (over 10k/month) by reviewing their codebase, doing some reasearch, and improving what they were storing and how they were doing so. This required a one-line code change on the existing codebase, and writing a new, short (~500 line) indexer. Doing a deep dive into the single highest AWS line item was the impetus for the project, and frankly, it turned out far better than expected.

Outside of work, I run https://www.thiswebsitewillselfdestruct.com, a website I built and maintain. It really will self-destruct, and it reaches ~100k users and handles ~13M requests each month. Building tools and infrastructure to manage its moderation and keep it a positive community has been a huge learning experience.
Is this supposed to be funny?

"Religion stupid, amirite guys?"

His entire rant is that God doesn't solve all the world's problems. But as a non-religious person, even I can tell you why that's a stupid argument because there's one answer every Christian (probably most other religions too) will give you: it's a test. And tests don't work when you're handed it all on a silver platter, frolicking through the fields of flowers, holding hands with the rest of the world.

That's called heaven. No (mainstream) religion ever said Earth was heaven. It is actually quite the opposite. Earth is closer to hell than it is heaven.

Hey Everyone, I have over five years of experience in business development, partnerships, financial analysis, and sales management. I have a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering and possess strong technical skills, including proficiency in Python, and Django.

I have worked at established crypto companies as a project manager, analyst and business development head. I successfully managed a portfolio of digital assets worth over $1.68 million and delivered returns of over 200%+. I have conducted extensive research and analysis on new projects, evaluating their viability, success rate, and growth potential while identifying potential challenges and limitations. I have demonstrated the ability to develop highly effective growth strategies, easily understand and explain complex systems, execute comprehensive go-to-market strategies, and successfully manage key accounts.
Refresh rate - sure. But scaling?...

> Most people probably don't even know scaling options exist, so using different ones on different monitors is going to be niche, yeah.

If you don't know the thing exists, that doesn't mean you don't use it. Modern OSes adjust scaling automatically for the screen DPI. Otherwise using configs like Retina MacBook + 1440p displays, or 4k laptop + 4k external display would be very painful.
A couple years back a client asked me to review a tech stack and to help them build it. One tool stood out as an odd choice and I suspected the engineering team was resume padding.

I looked at their scaling needs, costs, experience, existing stacks, and user stories but I couldn't work out why they included it. I pitched an alternate that delayed introducing the tool (it would be clear later on if it was needed, and it looked easy to delay). I got an enthusiastic but substanceless rebuttal from the engineering team. I ended up including the tool, as I needed the engineering team on-board to make design changes. In retrospect I still think they made a poor choice. I guess it worked out though as my resume was similarly padded?

And I addressed this in my original comment.

> Let's make one thing clear, the only purpose for [doxxing] is to condone harassment of that individual. Any claims otherwise are completely bad faith and bullshit. Nobody believes you. Stop claiming "Oh, but this information is publicly available!"

Yes, I acknowledge it's all public, but that doesn't explain why you would want to aggregate that information and post it in a public forum and make it easier to acquire. What purpose does it achieve?
You say that with a lot of confidence, what is the causal mechanism?
I guess I find it difficult to buy into the origins of art mattering too much because it often seems to turn into a game of academics arguing among each other over the interpretation of symbols. A particularly spiteful take on this would be that if your nuance is so delicate and obscure that a lay audience can't figure out your meaning, maybe it represents a failing in your ability to communicate.

I'm not sure where you got the "single variable" as "aesthetic value". Yes, it's possible that some people are trying to hit a specifically aesthetic goal, but others, their vision may be "the poster that finally convinces Aunt Frank to vote no on Proposition 23", or "the short story that expresses the feelings of loss I have for my beloved hamster", and the people trying to express these things were unable to create what they wanted from whole cloth.

At the end, it's still people making the decisions of what to release, whether directly, or by designing some sort of scoring mechanism to do it. It's similar to the curation choices in a museum collection-- they say something, even separate from the artifacts themselves.
Agreed. But it did start in the air; presumably it will return to the ground soon.
But being critical of pornography and considering it to be abuse isn't a view limited to right-wing Christians. For example, here's what Noam Chomsky has to say about it:

> Pornography is humiliation and degradation of women. It's a disgraceful activity. I don't want to be associated with it. Just take a look at the pictures. I mean, women are degraded as vulgar sex objects. That's not what human beings are. I don't even see anything to discuss.

> Interviewer: But didn't performers choose to do the job and get paid?

> The fact that people agree to it and are paid, is about as convincing as the fact that we should be in favour of sweatshops in China, where women are locked into a factory and work fifteen hours a day, and then the factory burns down and they all die. Yeah, they were paid and they consented, but it doesn't make me in favour of it, so that argument we can't even talk about.

> As for the fact that it's some people's erotica, well you know that's their problem, doesn't mean I have to contribute to it. If they get enjoyment out of humiliation of women, they have a problem, but it's nothing I want to contribute to.

> Interviewer: How should we improve the production conditions of pornography?

> By eliminating degradation of women, that would improve it. Just like child abuse, you don't want to make it better child abuse, you want to stop child abuse.

> Suppose there's a starving child in the slums, and you say "well, I'll give you food if you'll let me abuse you." Suppose - well, there happen to be laws against child abuse, fortunately - but suppose someone were to give you an argument. Well, you know, after all a child's starving otherwise, so you're taking away their chance to get some food if you ban abuse. I mean, is that an argument?

> The answer to that is stop the conditions in which the child is starving, and the same is true here. Eliminate the conditions in which women can't get decent jobs, not permit abusive and destructive behaviour.

I have been working as software engineer for more than a decade. On the last two roles I worked under DevOps, Archihect and SRE hats as well. I have most experience in the health and telco industries. Having worked both with very early statups and 100k people organisations I must say I would prefer the flexibility and innovation of the statup with stability of the enterprise, if possible. While I do prefer python stack I have extensive experience with GO and C/C++ as well, due to some underlaying infra work (ML and concurrency).

'From a security point of view, passwordless LUKS unclocking might look like we’re giving up some security, as booting will go straight to login without asking any password whatsoever. We’re indeed trading a bit of security in favour of convenience, it’s important to note though that binding the LUKS to the TPM ensures the volume will only unlock in our machine, with Secure Boot enabled and our signed boot image.'

So there we are somewhat breaking 'Secure Boot' process in general.

Where she went wrong was in contacting ARM to try to get it resolved. The smart thing to do would have been to politely reply to the C&D and refer the lawyers to her contacts at ARM, CCing it to the people she worked with there.

"I wrote my thesis about Arm security features and exploit mitigations for Arm's internal use, [have] given internal presentations, keynoted their conference, advocated for them, visited them at their HQ in Cambridge – all without compensation because I wanted this to be a mutually beneficial relationship instead of a gig."

When are engineers going to learn that corporate entities have no more capacity for friendship than a scorpion? They are run as and attract people interested in the mindless accumulation of more capital. You can have warm personal relationship with individual people at a company, but unless they are the top executives or largest shareholders those warm personal relationships don't mean anything compared to a spreadsheet. The corporate officers are not your pals.

People are downvoting the parent comment here, but it's correct. If you're going to name your domain after a commercial product in some way and you are all buddy-buddy with the people that make the product, get it in writing instead of relying on good vibes.
