It will surprise absolutely noone that the repeat offender was black. And yes, I mention the race because it does matter in a world where almost 60% of the violent crimes in the US are comitted by the same minority group. Remember Stop Asian Hate? I wonder what happened to that movement.
Yeah this is one of my concerns, too: what impact on on the oceans will this have? Maybe the salt can be used in electric car batteries somehow? What impact if any would desalination have on oncean water levels? If the process makes for water cheaper than at the tap what’s to stop industrial users?
Why can’t they have both a flagship model and the cheap Zero boards?

You are underestimating the volume.

In that volume, you need a large drying pool.. which is no better than a parking lot.

Yes, but what technical aspect explains the difference, they’re both based on energy efficient arm technology. TDP for the cortex is lower I think? Is it the silicon size? Cortex is used in fanless phones.

So, I think you've somewhat misinterpreted the space the author thinks they are referring to.

Ardour is a small project in terms of man-power - 2 full time paid developers, other individuals paid for media and other work, various commercial collaborations along the way, certainly dreaming of being able to use more paid development hours. We absolutely compete with at least a dozen popular paid solutions, with at least 3 on Linux alone.

The main reasons I think this article feels so unrelatable to me is (a) it's strange focus on profit (b) it's web/SaaS centric nature (c) it's B2B centric nature. It just doesn't have much to say about the "space" of writing native/desktop applications for individuals involved in creation workflows, free of VC influence.
Those numbers are wild. I didn’t expect them to be that large.
I'm pretty sure if the OP would have just sent the maintainer an email that he thought he deserved more credit would have been all it took to get it fixed. He was also given an opportunity to get more credit for another issue and that would have cemented his commitment to becoming a regular contributor.

Both sides could have done better, but this level of attack is unwarranted for what happened and if Michael Ellerman is capable of seeing that they could have handled the situation better then I'd hope the OP has the insight that they too could have handled this better, for instance by communicating with the maintainer directly.

Your point about communications is well noted, I think a part of it stems from a combination of workload on the part of the maintainer(s) and unfamiliarity with the various processes and attitudes as well as the absence of even clearer rules on how kernel maintainers should deal with various levels of contributions.
That's interesting. After watching the movie based on Julia Child's life I was always interested to know how much it had an impact on cooking in the US.
The microSD slot is one of my favorite features on the Pi. It's so easy to manage configurations, you can write the system to a new card, swap, and even nontechnical people can swap back if needed, and it's all cheap.

If it were up to me, Android phones might be doing the same thing, SD as primary storage, with an OS that was optimized for write cycle preservation. It's just so convenient, simple, and obvious.

I don't want the Pi to try to replace desktops, because it's not going to. I've already got a laptop, I don't need any more bandwidth.

I would prefer it if they added a small capacitor that could carry the SD card though it's internal FTL business on sudden power loss, that could ensure the SD always has power until at least a few ms after the last access. But I'm not sure if that's actually the problem. I just use a script to reduce disk writes(Mounting tmpfses, etc).

Whoa, thats prettt funny.
What software are you concerned about? I'm running Debian and I can apt-install anything in the arm repositories, which is basically everything. Neither the RP5 nor the rk3588 used on the Orange Pi have everything supported in mainline kernels, but in a year or so both probably will.
The real tragedy is that people had to work so hard to figure out exactly what was in the dataset. I just never got around to releasing the metadata, which is here: https://battle.shawwn.com/books3-metadata.jsonl

Dozens of people have told me I belong in prison for making books3. And as far as I can tell, it’s had zero economic impact on authors.

If I do end up in prison, I think I’ll join the ranks of "people we look back on throughout history with morbid curiosity". There are lots of examples of people being imprisoned for things we now consider harmless. The buggery act was used to purge the Knights Templar.

See also https://annas-archive.org/llm for acquiring ~20M books. But at this point you’d better be willing to risk being despised at best.

At this point I don’t know why I even did anything in AI. llama-dl was DMCA’ed, books3 is prison fodder, and the big players do as they please with very little risk. Even if the lawsuits are successful, they’ll just pay out damages from VC money.

I love ML for the sake of ML. I wanted to prove that individual researchers can contribute in a way that matters. Hopefully they’ll continue to be able to.

By the way, the reporter here, Alex Reisner, is a wonderful fellow, and a fellow hacker. He has a bunch of open source projects.
For the same reason we can't drink seawater: there is too much salt in it. The recommended water intake for a human is ~2kg, the recommended salt intake is ~2g. That's 0.2%, seawater has 1.5%. After you'd have eaten your share of salt, there is some leftover. You can't have someone else eat it, because then you'd also need more water. You could try to export it, but that requires quite a bit of extra processing, and the global demand for salt isn't high enough to pay for the transport costs.
I think OP is saying that if desalinated water is being delivered to taps, then it is tap water.

How do you "text a photo"? Does this imply iMessage or MMS?

I'm based in Europe and nobody uses SMS or iMessage here, so genuine question.
The data breach announcement is a bit vague on the meaning of “login pairs”. The best practices of breaches databases of the like of https://haveibeenpwned.com/ is to maintain records of login matter (username, email, password etc) in a strongly hashed format. This still enables searching and comparing but not extracting for later use. Why the database here looks like plain text is totally unclear. Or maybe the passwords are hashed here also (which anyway exposes email addresses)?

>I argue that Factorio teaches more directly applicable life skills to the average person.

If we're talking "average person", I think the benefits are minimal. Some white collar jobs involve creativity but not all. Even jobs that do will not allow you to express that creativity in your early years as you follow whatever instructions your boss gives you.

they both involve thinking and planning and in-game knowledge and mastery to thrive in, but I don't think the benefits are really that comparable.
Good thing you can’t do anything about it lol

(Also, please don’t forget all of the degenerate white people who were also the cause of “Stop Asian Hate” (i.e. the ones who voted for Trump and complained about Chinese people eating bats.) Speaking of CEOs, there was a viral video of a SF CEO who was fired for harassing an Asian person which was at the start of that movement lol.)

After lithium extraction, there's still a brine with roughly the same salt concentration, but likely with more other pollutants. You'd just be kicking the problem down the road.
Baltimore, like Detroit, St. Louis, and Kansas City, is a generally fucked, dangerous, dysfunctional city. Baltimore specifically has an absurd number of police cameras, highly racialized policing, and massive unemployment. It's generally not a nice place to live. Detroit is especially fucked because of large sections of abandoned residential areas and places so dangerous that the underfunded, understaffed police refuse to go.

It reminds me of the transition of dumb phones where we would transfer files to one another using direct Bluetooth. Then the era of cloud storage came and you would upload to the cloud to transfer to someone next to you. Then we reinvented sending to the device next to you with things like AirDrop and Nearby Share but alas they’re not interoperable.

OS support, yes; the ARM ecosystem is overall a trash fire in terms of being able to use mainline Linux. Even Pis don't actually have a good track record with actual mainline Linux, but they're popular enough that their downstream patches are actually maintained so you can keep using current kernels; most boards get whatever buggy kernel the vendor drops when it ships and then nothing. Now AIUI Orange Pis do actually have a decent track record for upstream kernel support? So that might be fine in this case, but I deeply sympathize with people not wanting to figure it out and just going with the name brand that they know will get supported.

I agreed with it until you injected the irrelevant bit about HTML and CSS being programming languages. It is ARGUABLE true, but very unhelpful, you are not giving learners useful direction when you use a blanket term ("programming language") to refer to vastly different things that require different mindsets (js & other languages vs html, css, yml...) to master.

I would assume that the majority of the animals that humans kill are kept in captivity and therefore not exposed to other animals. Since this breeding/captivity is happening at a staggering scale, my second assumption is that animals have absolutely no way of keeping up with humans.

What is the imagined use case where you have a Pi in your bag (for some reason), the USB-C power plug that rated to run it, a mouse and keyboard, an Ethernet cable, want to display the Pi, refuse to SSH into it, and didn't bring one of the two cables you have to output the display? Maybe a found Pi sensor in a war zone that has been logging environmental data? I'm struggling for another scenario.
Well, if you have some compliance automation. These things are caught very easily.

> “as far as I can tell, it’s had zero economic impact on authors”

Why are you the right person in the world to make these decisions on the behalf of thousands of living authors?

I can understand distributing old works and abandonware. Copyright protection is far too long. But I don’t understand taking the recent creative work of somebody who’s alive and trying to make a living, and packaging it so that trillion-dollar corporations have a plausible excuse to use the work without permission.
So how do you spend your time today on the fields?
I guess the simple answer would be: No, first seek to understand.
Given this principle, we would mostly realize that even if it was that simple, the business is still years ahead because those people don't just come to work to drink coffee.

However, I'd like to point out that there are rare cases when some newcomers can replace existing businesses because they found some technology that simply replaces years of work.
After results like this, I would expect more farmers to try seeding their fields with all manner of worms.

I mean, copyright shouldn't be the infinite years it is currently. This used to belong to everyone collectively, and then publishers (not writers) decided they owned it.

Another big interest coming along now to decide that now they own it?

I don't care. Give people back their culture. 5 years of copyright is sufficient.

There is definitely an aspect of raw time that needs to be put into development to make a prod version of software robust, but that still doesn't account for the bloat.

The real issue for the bloat is simple lack of engineering skill. Most "engineers" have very little clue of what goes on under the hood when their code is running, and really only rely on learned patterns to complete their job. So many times I have been given code for a service that when run locally doesn't work, with the explanation that you have to test it in beta stage - the reason this happens is because nobody who started writing that code has any idea of what goes on outside of the boilerplate that is provided for them to fill in.
Not exactly. The way physicists tried to reconcile Newtonian mechanics with the Maxwell equations was by imagining that the space between the Earth and the Sun (at least) is not a void, but that it is filled with an actual substance, the luminiferous ether. Light waves were posited to be mechanical waves in this substance, and the measured speed-of-light limit would have been a simple frame dragging effect: the moving train pulls the ether with it.

Of course, the Michelson-Morley experiment proved that even if this substance exists, it can't be dragged around, so frame dragging can't be an explanation for the constant speed of light, making the whole idea unnecessary. Future observations predicted by SR and GR would probably not have been compatible anyway.

But, getting back to your point, if this ether had existed and had been the medium through which light propagates and had been draggable by moving objects, then this would not have been a contradiction or even modification of Newtonian mechanics.
Reading this writeup, the procedure takes up to two minutes:

* each person in the room pulls up the stem when their individual second hand is pointing at 0, and also sets the time to the prearranged hour/minute,

* then everyone waits a bit longer until this is done;

* after another minute, everyone pushes down the stem simultaneously

Is there an alternative where you could have some way to force your second hand to the 0 position rather than waiting up to a minute for it to get there on its own then freeze it?

This is a good argument. Why would anyone focus on the fact that no harm has been caused when we could be talking about theoretical harms that we can’t describe or quantify??
Fantastic article. I'd love to see more people championing statements like "Profit, not usage, is a measure of success".

I think there's a stigma about open source projects being run as commercial, profit-generating businesses, and I'm very happy to see more people championing the Commerical, Profitable OSS cause -- which everyone in the ecosystem benefits from. (More Profit == Keep Building More OSS).

I happen to like the Open Core model here, where businesses adopt OSI OSS licenses for the core, and Source Visible licenses for the rest - which gives the balance of visibility, auditability, etc, whilst still enabling the project to be revenue generating, delivering longevity as well.
