The site should probably say somewhere that this was built for AWS and AWS only.

Instead it says:

> Bottlerocket is installed as the base operating system on the machine or instance where your containers themselves are running.

> Bottlerocket runs in the cloud or in your datacenter.
I concur that fair use could be an effective defense against infringement claims; the section you are referring mentions distribution/copying specifically, but it refers to other sections which apply to adaptation.

Regardless, the law itself seems clear that the right to adaptation is exclusive independent of distribution.

The fair use arguments are interesting, considering:

- AI businesses are commercial enterprises

- Many works (perhaps including an author's entire published output) were digested in their entirety to create LLMs

- If anyone can generate their own version of GoT/SoI&F with an AI system, does it diminish the market for the original?

(On the other hand, it's too bad HBO didn't have one at the time.)
> visually stunning representations of their data

The Steve-Jobs-ification of describing how things look has gone too far.
I'm not Swiss, but I get the impression they pride themselves on compromise, stability, and independence.

Public infrastructure has positive feedback loops, so if your neighbor canton has good train stations, you also want to have good train stations to connect to them.

You also don't want to depend on importing expensive oil, especially as a land-locked country.
Darker? Sounds like a much brighter side...
A hint at the underlying problem is calling it "content" instead of data.

If you're an aspiring "influencer", producing "content", then go ahead and use bobblehead platforms designed deeply and pervasively to think of the user as a consumer of content, or a captive property of the developer.

If you're a hacker or a software engineer, you probably want to be investing in platforms intended for people like yourself. Which, right now, pretty much means Linux or a BSD.
Ask HN: Where do I go to talk to people about color matching?
So at work I wrote some python to match colors in photoshop. Basically it takes a CMYK color, an attribute (lightness, hue, chroma) a direction (-1 or +1) and a scale factor between 0 and 1 and it picks a certain number of colors from a database for which only that attribute is modified. The good news is that it works, but there are two problems: 1) it's really slow taking around 2-3 minutes and 2) it produces a lot of garbage which right now I work around by just increasing the number of colors for it to pick, which does not make it go slower. I figure it's time to ask for help. Where do I go to talk to people about this? Is there like an IRC channel or a forum for graphic design? I know Onyx Graphics has a product that does a similar thing and it's a lot smaller and faster than my solution but it doesn't work in every case.
I'm not really doubling down on anything. I personally used Syncthing to keep two computers in sync while I was transitioning to a new one. Paying for cloud storage would have been unnecessary in my case. I did have iCloud before that, but I can't access that anymore ever since my Mac broke.

I do pay for cloud storage to sync my reMarkable 2, mostly because they'll void my warranty if I don't.
>I think it boils down to one thing. He built a tool specifically to market on Twitter, it worked well, it got traction because of how well it worked.

I remember about 6 years ago seeing an small indie studio talking about how, when they were starting their next project, they posted 10 second gameplay gifs of games that didn't exist yet every week on twitter. They'd track the reactions they got from the gif, then try one or two more of the same game to see if it's consistent. They ended up with the most traffic towards some kind of airship management game, and it ended up doing extremely well for them once released. But the youtube comments where he was explaining his process post-release were LIVID. They were furious that it was such a cold, calculated commercialized process - but hey that's business.
Is anyone successfully using this outside of AWS?
There are many doctors, lawyers, therapists, etc who are juggling mortgages or wanting to buy a house, and loan payments. Your point isn’t mute though
Just like 7% inflation isn’t that bad because it could be a whole lot worse?
I wish more people would talk to me on trains planes or wherever else. If ever something like that does happen it usually really brightens my day.

You might ask why I don't start such conversations. I simply do not think im capable. I wish I were, but ive spent a great deal of stress trying to get myself to talk freely at things like conferences, parties, etc. I just can't do it. This affliction I think is more and more common.
“A Rape in Cyberspace” was later collected into a book called My Tiny Life: Crime and Passion in a Virtual World, all about the author's relationships and experiences in LamdaMOO. Highly recommend.
Yeah given that we’re finding micro/nanoplastics mainly in people’s lungs and blood it seems more likely I’m getting dosed from aerosols after rainstorms or something.
You're probably just unaware of what constitutes status in this context. This is a well studied phenomenon, and it makes sense from a biological perspective.
It’s not the same as profit margin in other business it doesn’t take into account labor costs. How much is his time worth?
It's bad on purpose to make you click. If they had wanted to be informative they would have written something more like the Techcrunch article on it (https://techcrunch.com/2023/09/19/project-gutenberg-puts-500...).
very gracious
the point was the word.

the interpretation is the conversation.

the argument is your construction. end it whenever you wish.
Could you give an example of something that is a market, unlike housing? And why?

Is a super market a market? Or a stock market ?
It’s literally usury.
Obviously no, else they'd had no problem
Not really. It’s a very complicated, highly sophisticated piece of software written for native iOS. And the market is small. By rewriting it for Android, the only market share they could expect to get would be what they can steal from Garmin’s Android install base - which the Play store notes as “100K+” downloads. And we haven’t begun to consider the explosion of the hardware/software testing matrix.
Congrats on the launch! I love the focus on local data only.

I've tried several different CRMs to help remind me to keep track of friends, family, and acquaintances. The problem I have is I have thousands of contacts from tons of different sources and from over the years.

From Google, old phones, LinkedIn, Apple, and people in emails who aren't contacts. I would love an app that could consolidate all my contacts into one place as seamlessly as possible.

Then help remind me to get in touch.
Well that was a bit of a doomy article, though I find myself agreeing with the general throughline. Dating's gotten pretty messed up and realistically speaking that's unlikely to change going forward.

The reason I characterize the article as "doomy" is because it implies some very terrible things will happen as a result:

> "A society with too many isolated men and no war to send them to is a scary situation. [...] they will decay your country from the inside."

Far be it from me to suggest that endemic loneliness and population decline are positive developments, but... will society really decay from the inside-out as a direct result? I'll cop to being one of those men which the article characterizes as having "given up" -- a sub-yearly sex haver, a porn watcher, and an enjoyer of the video games -- but I'm no closer to blighting civilized society because of it.

Cards on the table, that's probably thanks to various tailwinds in my own personal life: a fulfilling job, a good paycheck, and a modest yet supportive network of friends and family whom I love dearly. There're plenty of guys (and girls) out there with none of those things and no sex life to top it off. Life sucks for them in general and that is probably the stronger (and more actionable!) source of this malaise creeping over general society which many of us are feeling.
> For example it wasn't clear to me that append() mostly doesn't copy the full vector, but does a copy of the slice pointer.

Well I guess you do have to grok the language spec and semantics in order to understand how builtins like append behave, I'm not sure that's avoidable.

I would like to read the article, but it seems aggressively paywalled in a manner that appears distinctly akin to those porn-scam redirects that you come across on the internet.

(with the fake notifications from snapchat and tiktok)

I think this is an unfortunate consequence of the heading image of the article.
Paying an intern less than minimum wage may be legal if it really is for the intern's academic benefit. Here are the factors that are considered to decide that [1].

Of course it is. Anything that is bought and sold is a market.
I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not but the jump from 2.5% to today’s 8% doubles the monthly payment, so I can see why people complain about it.
It's lack of trust. I too tend to be dismissive by default when it comes to school decisions backed by "studies", because I don't trust an average social science study, I definitely don't trust those that become trendy, and I don't trust school administration to be able to comprehend even a valid study, much less implement it fully in a hostile political and parents/school relationship environment.

Hard sciences are easy, soft sciences are difficult. When you follow a bogus physics study and fuck up your airplane design, your mistake will be immediately apparent. When you follow a bogus social sciences study and fuck up the K12 curriculum, your mistake might be apparent after you retire, if it'll ever become apparent at all.
These articles about the dating pool are entertaining, but they don't matter when the fertility of entire generations is expiring because of viral ideas that are against the continuence of life. I'm seeing an old flame age out of fertility right now, and that's a hard stage of life. I often wonder, what wasn't anyone willing to do, and what was anyone holding out for?
Or moot.
Syncthing has pretty basic conflict resolution and depends on the devices being online at the time of the conflict, so that's expected. It does, however, keep everything on the file system, and even allow you to move files to a trash rather than completely deleting them if they're deleted on another device. Hasn't saved my ass yet but maybe one day it will.
I'm on a quest to reduce microplastic ingestion but it's really hard. All the easy choices don't help at all.

In Netherlands we have the world's cleanest tap water, but my wife can't stand the tap water here, even getting stomach problems if she drinks it. So instead she drinks a particular brand of bottled water. However bottled water is apparently full of microplastics. Not only leeched from the bottle, vut also from the cap when you open it.

There doesn't seem to be a product on the Dutch market for removing microplastics from water. The best thing I've found is Brita filters. They don't advertise filtering out microplastics but it's plausible that they filter at least some. So now we drinked Brita filtered tap water.

The baby bottles are all plastic. Glass is available but they're hard to find, and our baby only likes one particular brand of bottle, refusing to drink from others.

My son's children's water bottle is plastic. I've never seen children's water bottle not made of plastic. Frankly I'm not sure what to do here. Even if I find a glass version, it's heavy. And if he drops it then it becomes a big mess — especially when he does so at school.

I'm going to replace all the food containers with metal or glass soon.

I also want to replace the sun-blocking curtains but it's really hard to find sun-blocking ones that don't contain nylon. It's madness.
Laptop stickers are a perfect means to signal who you want to talk to, and who you don't, without saying anything.
I think centralizing learning into a brain is smarter, if you pardon the pun. Retrieval becomes faster, which is adaptive, and the body can protect it more easily if it is concentrated in one area, which enables internal specialization. If you can't protect the organ, the adaptive response is to make it redundant, rather than specialized.
Thank you for writing the article (admittedly unnecessary due to the topic, probably a koan there somewhere...) [1]

It would be interesting for me to understand why you believe she should give more weight to critiques of capitalism when there's practically zero alternatives in the world today, and that's been the case for decades now. Yes, it's cliche to say "capitalism is the worst economic system, except for all the others", but that's absolutely true as far as anyone today can claim without completely losing sight of reality... and I say this as someone who really wished human nature didn't make this true.
There's an emerging star named Johnny Hamcheck whose whole schtick is talking to strangers in ways they don't expect. It's harmless unscripted humor. If you like Surveillance Camera Man, this might be for you. I'm linking his YouTube, even though he gets a tiny fraction of the views there compared to other platforms:

Downvotes notwithstanding, the reality is that Unity is not profitable. They desperately need a revenue stream.

And sure, they should have gone with plain old revenue sharing from the get go ("we get X% of your sales, so if you sell nothing, we get nothing, and if you move 2 million units, we get an amount you can quite easily part with"), instead they came up with a batshit insane plan, and their CEO should have been fired already.

That doesn't mean they can backpaddle on the part where they need to put a sales-based revenue stream in place. Either they do, or they go out of business (which is an even worse deal for everyone. Folks seem to vastly underestimate how close to failing Unity was even before this debacle).

As much as people will want to go raise pitchforks despite these changes, reading through them these changes are actually massive. The part where it only applied to Unity 2023LTS and beyond is a HUGE change. It's aggressive, and and a grandfather clause for already in-progress games is clearly missing so fuck em, they have more work to do, but it's also nowhere near as insane as the previous arrangement. And it almost certainly won't be their last change as long as the dev/studio world goes "good start, but this is still unacceptable".
“Children are taught never to speak to unknown grown-ups, especially those regarded by their parents as untrustworthy.”

Not my kids, they talk to anyone. When they ask me a question about someone I encourage them to ask the person. When the want something I encourage them to ask (respectfully). They always, always get nice responses and I get friendly conversations afterwards. Think of yourself, how would you react? Well 99.999 of people would react the same.
So... it _is_ rude. Just under the justification of being ND
Why not keep the master copy somewhere else and rsync to icloud drive every x minutes?
Well, heat your water with it.

In addition, I don't see why you wouldn't just buy a home battery pack and use that to store up energy. You can run the ice in the high power bursts to top off.

I just kind of like this post because there's going to be a lot of excess ICE engines out there once EVs take over the primary job of consumer transport.

This headline could easily be anything: dog shelters brace for flood of new dogs as student loan payments resume. Oh wait it was a headline: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2023/09/16/animal...

There are so many downstream issues from this that I honestly think that promising it and then not delivering will be a huge hurtle for the Biden campaign to win over this demographic again.
There are 2 paths for the upcoming generation to afford houses - as the prices are unsustainable. Let's see which group politicians choose to screw over:

- Older homeowners, who statistically have a majority of their wealth in their home

- Upcoming generations, whom if home prices do not drop - must have their wages inflated artificially significantly to afford the homes. Which then causes more inflation
Free audiobooks narrated by amateurs (who are real humans) already exist. Just go to YouTube and search for classic book name + "audiobook". Yet people go to Audible for those books because there is a difference between amateur work and professional work. Same as why people buy Shakespeare books with annotations instead of just using some random online version.
As he should've.

Phones are individual/personal.

Even if the iCloud account is on a shared plan, and one member of the family is responsible for managing it, they should not be making changes to any INDIVIDUAL device settings without checking with that device owner.

I would be livid if my partner had done that for me because they "thought 'we' probably didn't need it, so I turned it off for 'your' iPhone"
C++ also has modules.
This sounds fake on my because generating microwaves is not really something you could 'shrink and distribute' to cover a body.

There is a reason microwaves are boxes.

As Mickens said:

> In the real world, threat models are much simpler (see Figure 1). Basically, you’re either dealing with Mossad or not-Mossad. If your adversary is not-Mossad, then you’ll probably be fine if you pick a good password and don’t respond to emails from ChEaPestPAiNPi11s@virus-basket.biz.ru. If your adversary is the Mossad, YOU’RE GONNA DIE AND THERE’S NOTHING THAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT. The Mossad is not intimidated by the fact that you employ https. If the Mossad wants your data, they’re going to use a drone to replace your cellphone with a piece of uranium that’s shaped like a cellphone, and when you die of tumors filled with tumors, they’re going to hold a press conference and say “It wasn’t us” as they wear t-shirts that say “IT WAS DEFINITELY US,” and then they’re going to buy all of your stuff at your estate sale so that they can directly look at the photos of your vacation instead of reading your insipid emails about them.
I don’t think this is—nor should it be—a judgment on her quality as a scientist. Rather this should be a judgment on her as a person.

Instead of questioning her as a scientist, rather ask your self, why she applies this non-scrutinizing philosophy to the field of economics and sociology (as well as health care; see video about gender affirming care), while she so well known and successful for her extreme skeptical takes on the field of her expertise. Like she must have a personal reason—not a scientific one—for this dissonance.
Exactly. It being awful is a reason not to have a trillion people on Earth. Food isn't the limiting factor, other things are.
Yes, but usually in those situations you can actually move on to something else. One a plane, you're forcibly stuck there. No, "Hey, it was nice talking to you, I'll see you around!" option.
Look for “microwave safe” label from major providers, e.g. Glad.

In California, underbrush is actually managed somewhat decently on state owned land, the problem is, most land is not state owned, nor is it managed well, so, it all catches fire and once a fire is going, it tends to not really require underbrush to spread so all land is vulnerable.

This has been the case for decades now, and the state refuses to do anything about it.
Nobody is demanding that you should open source it. Just don't call it open source if you are not going to make it open source.
Just like some statements are ok, some are not.
Look, a 10% interest rate isn't that much on a $10,000 personal loan. But that doesn't even buy you a new car today and for a measly apartment in a major city you gotta be prepared to spit in the vicinity of $1,000,000. This insanity has to stop, hence the high interest rates.
I have a set of pyrex bowls that I bought in 1987, and still use today. I wouldn't bother with wide mouth jars, although I guess they have advantages when storing food in the fridge.
If you think this doesn't make them look like a buffoon, then you are much more generous than I.

"always for the better" that's definitely a matter of opinion, and I'm not buying it. it's just another in the long list of reasons why i don't spend a lot of time watching these types of "creators"

They will choose to screw the upcoming generations. Because they are themselves homeowners and younger ones don’t want to vote at all, at least more often than the older. Also the older generation is larger than the young ones in most western countries.

Too bad I will not be able to comprehend the point they're trying to make about the abusive way we are being channeled into a behavior pattern by the modern social media conglomerates because this media conglomerate wants me to pay for access to their channel.

What's the 2023 equivalent of the Silk Road? So many interesting developments in the world of psychedelics, still extremely illegal. Last time I had magic mushrooms, I ordered a box of dirt (with spores) online from a Dutch head shops. Surprisingly easy and quick to grow. That's more than 10 years ago, I doubt these grow kits are still legal.
