Well, there's macOS which has a very capabilities-based design (Documents folder? Pictures folder? Contacts? Desktop? Screen recording?) but most people just see it as annoying.
Once upon a time, I had daylight color lights in my bedroom. My then GF was somewhat unhappy with that choice after a while, especially since it was winter when she moved in with me, and so outside was extra white. Since then we now mostly use warmer white bulbs excepting certain locations like the garage and laundry room.
Why Poolside AI Moved to Paris
Indeed. Too Pointless; Didn't Read.
I would think the opposite would be true. Plastics can only be recycled a few times before the long chain hydrocarbons start to break down too much, so the process "should" be, Virgin plastic -> 1 time use -> recycled into long term use.
This is an improvement over the status quo—there are several blind people who have commented on this thread saying that they are reluctant to use the human service unless they absolutely have to. Giving them an AI tool that can use in low-stakes situations is a huge improvement over not having a tool at all, and the human service is still there for the high-stakes situations they were already willing to use it for.
I make most of my open-source contributions quasi anonymously, and don't want attribution. Does that make me the odd one?
The problem that became very salient to me dealing with miscarriage is that women who have healthy pregnancies are also more likely to have problems with morning sickness, and are more likely to avoid things like coffee that are likely to make them feel even more nauseous. Women who have troubled pregnancies that are more likely to end in miscarriage are less likely to feel nauseous and therefore continue to drink and eat things as before.

So it's possible caffeine consumption is a sign of a troubled pregnancy rather than a cause of it. I'm sure there's a point where caffeine becomes problematic but that could be said of a lot of things.

There's a paper in NEJM or JAMA that pointed to this as a likely explanation but it's been a few years and don't have time to look for it now. I think they were looking at timing of caffeine consumption and nausea symptoms?
IF the patch was only edited for style or other minor issues, then the copyright remains with the original contributor. If the patch was completely rewritten from scratch and is very different then not. (linux does not require copyright attribution)

If the poster wants to get a lawyer he can probably force rewriting git history to give him credit. Is it worth it - probably not.
> This is very unethical conduct on the maintainer's part.

And this is why finding good maintainers for visible FOSS projects is hard.

You know what's unethical conduct? Misrepresenting someone's words in a way that make them look bad.

The maintainer did exactly what they usually do, I see absolutely nothing unexpected here, note that this was an unsolicited patch sent to a security mailing list. And this is typically how those are dealt with. To claim 'unethical conduct' is one small step removed from a formal complaint about the maintainer, and which is exactly the wrong message to send here. Witch hunts like this cause good people to leave FOSS projects. The maintainer could have given more credit but chose not to, that's the rules you play by when sending in unsolicited patches. If you must have credit then you should not contribute in this fashion.
Purely functional programming is a subset of functional programming (see F# for instance). I was referring to the pipe operator syntax common to many functional programming languages like Haskell, F#, OCaml, Elixir, Elm and so on...
There should be a key you can hold down which would mean "skip all enumeration and assume everything is exactly as it was the last time you booted" (with a brief warning to the user about the possible risks introduced by this)
Knowledge cascades all the way down; it goes to show how difficult it is to 'holster' even the smallest piece of knowledge once its drawn.

I wonder with the rate Stack Exchange is losing active contributors, what it would take for 'fastest gun' answers to be corrected that are later found to be off mark, and what it would mean for our collective knowledge once these 'slightly off' answers are further cemented in our annals of search and increasingly, LLM history.
There's been enough follow-up on this case to come to the conclusion that he fabricated the data. The Hartford insurance company's statement contradicts his claim. The PNAS study was retracted after the Data Colada article and there are anomalies in his other work.

Sometimes the community is wrong, and needs to be overridden. An example of this is California, New York, and Illinois enacting state laws to prevent local communities from blocking local renewable generation projects (wind and solar), because the justifications were frequently falsehoods and aesthetics reasons. Feelings are not a justification to inhibit responsible, community compatible development and improvements.

I'll just address my philosophical approach - which is that of a scrapbook.

I don't manage my photos, which I take a fair deal of as i've been living more or less nomadically for 6 years now. I just organize them by year, as the filenames are datestamped.

If a particular photo is something I know will trigger a negative memory, for better or worse I put those in a folder called "lockbox" with no sorting - the idea being I know what i'm getting into when I look in there.

I very rarely review my photos, sometimes once a year when i'm coming up with my plans for the year.

This also matches my journaling - which I treat the same way. I've been journaling almost daily for 20+ years. It's a huge treat to go back to points in time and see what I was thinking and what was going on. I'm regularly surprised on how bad our memory is of what happened vs what we remember happening. I'll often visit it when i'm in a low spot / trapped in a rut.
The idea is that the server must have a known allocation budget, similar to Java's max heap size. There's a tree of allocators, i.e. a temporarily created arena allocator needs initial memory for its arena, so it can grab it from the root allocator. And the root allocator ultimately must be fixed-size and deterministic. Sure if there are other processes in the system allocating without concern for other apps, then the OOM killer can kill the server. But if there's no such process, I think it should be pretty stable.
This is pretty amazing. This allows you to do all kinds of stuff around video, manipulation stands out to me, though they mention GPGPU as a use case without further elaboration, which makes me wonder if they might be coming out with something soon where you can use WebGPU APIs for GPGPU scenarios.
There is so much variance in cost between colleges! 80k and even 40k seem like really high yearly costs.

I went to a community college for 2 years in California and then transferred to a mid-tier state university for the last two years.

I graduated in 2017 and the total cost for my education was about 30k. It was expensive, but spread out over 4 years I was able to pay for most of it by working part time.

As a father what were the tradeoffs you considered when planning to put your kids through college? Did you consider the route through community college? Was the dorm experience important? It seems like the decision to not put your kids through community college is usually more for social reasons rather than academic, since community colleges, at least in California, are MORE rigorous than regular universities, since they are preparing to send kids to the full range of colleges. Parents and kids seem to think that it’s important to live on campus in a dorm because they will make more friends. But idk, I am very curious to hear the thought process from a parent’s point of view.
Embedding cost and model choice makes this a very compelling choice. I'm working on leveraging embeddings in https://github.com/discourse/discourse-ai where it powers offering related topics, semantic search, tag and category recommendations among other things.

A cheap offering like this can make it a lot more reasonable for self-hosters.

> the maintainers there are hip to the fact that people use often minor contributions to increase their standing

That's a fair concern but I don't think that's what we're talking about here. This isn't someone running around correcting whitespace or documentation to pad their resume. They did a bunch of technical and mailing list research. That kind of effort is promising.

> I'm on the same side as another commenter here in that the 'Suggested-by' tag would have been the more appropriate one

Yeah or maybe "co-author" or whatever (IDK anything about kernel tags). It seems pretty evident to me that Ellerman cleaned up Micunas' original patch using his kernel expertise. I'm not at all calling "plagiarism" or anything like that, but I am calling "collaboration".

> if that's worth penning a post like this for, especially one that misrepresents the kernel maintainers words in a meaningful way then all perspective is lost

I'm not sure what the original private email was so who knows if it's a faithful paraphrase, but I can forgive OP for being miffed and I could also forgive Ellerman for being irritated about being misrepresented. Someone should be the mature person here though, and--call me naive if you want haha--I'd look to the kernel dev for that.
You might be and if so then I'm glad you are, but in my post above I was specifically referring to all the large silicon valley corporations pushing for NN.

As for the legislation in the OP, they're not trying to accomplish that and TBH I really doubt the democrats[1] even want it to go further than the ISPs because they've been the beneficiaries of policies at companies like AWS that have deplatformed right-wing organizations[2].

[1] by which i mean the democrats that actually wield institutional authority in the american government, not every DNC party-member in general

[2] not that i agree with the organizations that are being deplatformed but there is a principle at stake.

Your nines are not my nines (2019)
That's almost spot on.

I've just barely arrived at the conclusion that I could make a change, offering minor suggestions and changes on projects I care about and then have the read someone degrading a contribution that is still "several levels above people that work their way into OSS projects in order to gain visibility by fixing a lot of trivial issues"

And when you point this extreme ranking out as inappropriate, your comment gets vaporized.

There's no chance if you avoid random_person1 and use known_oss_provider’s package instead. At the very least, look at the tests.

There's a ton of nuance to this issue (source: me - I used to work alongside Chinese nationals, both here in the US and also residing in China).

But summed up -
1. There is enormous pressure to be successful before one gets married, because one's standing in society (job prestige, income, real estate ownership) is essentially the reason they are chosen to be a spouse.
2. There aren't enough opportunities for young people to make sufficient amounts of money to be able to raise their standing in society.
3. Costs of living in the desirable Tier 1 Cities and surrounding areas (where the big jobs often are) is insane.
4. The follow-on effects of ending the one-child policy will take another decade or so minimum to come to fruition (the policy only ended 8 years ago), meaning there's still a massive gender imbalance. Right now women can be incredibly selective (see point 1) and there's no real ability for the Chinese society to alleviate that.

Interesting times ahead for China.

It does exist, but unfortunately people who practice it are not believed by those who do not, because they cannot fathom it.

Thank you so much for investigating this matter so thoroughly and fighting for justice so eagerly. As the father of a 4-month-old baby, I couldn't imagine anything more devastating than having him taken away by the authorities for something neither my wife nor I have done. I can only imagine the despair of the families to whom this happens, let alone the impact on the poor kids themselves.
> That's what everyone does. Just with varying degrees of success ...

If by "varying degrees of success" you mean "mostly abject failure", I guess we can agree. But no, not everyone does that. Most people broke in the early pandemic, either toward trusting "the science" or toward weird bullshit.
Just because the patch was urgent is not an excuse for not giving proper credit. Co-author appears to be the minimum credit.
This is completely relatable, but also, it’s sometimes sad that our brains make us feel this way even at times when it’s truly no burden to help.
> For anything designated an "appliance" I want it to be fixable by someone locally

This is already pretty much gone thanks to manufacturers making it extremely difficult to fix things. No AI required.
Why shouldn't they push responsibility to the user? Blindness isn't a mental handicap, their users are rational adults who are far more familiar with the risks of being unable to see than you are. Why shouldn't they have access to one more tool that they can make a judgement call on when to use? And what's wrong with the provider of the tool giving them guidance on when might be a good time to ask a human instead?

I suspect most of the anger in this thread is just the usual anti-AI stance, but it honestly feels extremely patronizing in this context.
Time Travel: Running Python 3.7 on XP
Recognition of individual contributions is a core component to why Open Source even works in the first place. It would not work if an abstract, utopian ideal of "improving the codebase" was the primary driver. A bug fix contribution may be borne out of necessity, but ultimately codebase improvements are a side effect of the social phenomenon of people being highly motivated to be recognized by their peers.

Notoriety is the currency of open source software. And that's a feature, not a bug.
Interesting idea.

I imagine Emacs would be able to support this if you’re willing to dive into Elisp. You would probably need some heuristic to guess language (per line?).

However, have you considered a much easier solution: Use a typeface with good glyph coverage. The DejaVu family is probably a good bet.

Unhealthy relationship with keyboards? Comparing with the r/MechanicalKeyboards or r/ErgoMechKeyboards people this relationship is more like divorced...

Small extract from etymonline on the word 'hack'.

The slang sense of "cope with" (as in can't hack it) is recorded in American English by 1955, with a notion of "get through by some effort," as a jungle (phrase hack after "keep working away at" is attested from late 14c.). To hack around "waste time" is U.S. slang, by 1955.

The US 1955 slang 'hack around', is to waste time. A description that applies way too often, for users on the peripherary of technology and tech education, I'm afraid.

In fairness they "forgot" because of concentrated efforts on the part of plastics producers to make them forget, and the complacency of regulators who were happy to put "you can recycle this" stamps on millions of products that were and still are largely bound for landfills and/or the pacific garbage patch.

But offloading responsibility for climate disasters onto consumers instead of the companies actually making all the decisions and the regulators permitting them to is a time honored tradition for the oil industry at this point.

Ok, you aren't arguing for 'pure' functional programming, but I think you have sidestepped my question, then:

The pipe operator is just one part of functional programming, composing and applying functions

`f(g(x))` is still functional, and I would argue it exactly what is happening in the first example.
>> the future there will be video-capable models, which means they can understand and interpret motion and physics.

Videos may not suffice. Videos are 2d, with 3d aspects being inferred from that 2d data, which is an issue for autonomous driving based on cameras. A proper model for AI training would be 3d scans rather than videos. The best data set would be a combination of video and 3d scanning. Self-driving cars which might combine video with radar/laser scanning may one day provide such a data set.

There is talk of a 3d version of Google streetview, one using a pair of cameras to allow true VR viewing. That might also be good training data as it will capture, in 3d, may street scenes as they unfold.

Out of curiosity, is there a sizable number of developers that just copy and paste untrusted code from StackOverflow into their applications?

The conjecture that people just copy from StackOverflow is obviously popular but I always thought this was just conjecture and humor until I saw someone do it. Don't get me wrong, I use StackOverflow to give me a head start on solving a problem in an area I'm not as familiar with yet, but I've never just straight copied code from there. I don't do that because rarely does the snippet do exactly and only exactly what I need. It requires me to look at the APIs and form my own solution from the explained approach. StackOverflow has pointed me in the direction of some niche APIs that are useful to me, especially in Python.
I can't answer that, but the poster mentions it segfaults so it's identified that way for sure.
The central utility a unuversity class provides is the syllabus. If you know WHAT you need to learn, you can learn it on your own. I never went to classes except test days and yet I was in a very high percentile on my exit exams because I studied everything in the syllabus for all my classes.

The other utility is networking. That one I didnt do so good with.

Personally, I like the pay to test and prep suggestion. Would have worked great for me and I would not have had to deal with vindictive professors who graded me down for not attended their awful lectures even though there was no attendance grade.
> rect.set_size(width: 640, height: 480)

I've apparently been "ruined" by functional languages because this sort of imperative mutational style of "make this object have these attributes" is just an instant turn-off. an equivalent functional style would look something more like:

> rect = Struct.merge_attr(rect, %{width: 640, height: 480})

(assuming you have the Elixir language feature of being able to re-use the same name, but underneath it's actually pointing to a new value; if not, you'd have to assign to a new name, but at least there'd be no ambiguity, and you could still continue to refer to the old name until it went out of scope)
Small businesses having insufficient margins to pay taxes doesn't mean they are inefficient. It sometimes means they don't have enough leverage to get the margins other businesses can get.
