Annoying.
Well, then I guess we should be happy inequalities prevent one more person from wasting a tremendous amount of rare materials and energy.
Don’t know if this is what he was doing, but I know in LatAm people pay for some sketchy “lists”, that they then put into some streaming software and then are able to watch movies, series and sometimes even live sports

Have no idea if it’s the same thing that this guy was doing, but pretty sure all of that content from those lists is pirated

The lists are pretty cheap, maybe 10USD for 30day access, so people prefer to pay for those than for cable
I am in the same situation. Would love for somebody with more knowledge to jump in and give some hints.

Brave lost goodwill by going crypto. Now that Kagi has a superior product, there isn't a good reason to choose Brave other than not wanting to pay.
That’s just the nature of HN, you can post absolutely any link on here and I don’t think it’s reasonable to expect a blog post author to accommodate someone arriving on the page with zero context.

The Jellyfin blog achieves one important criteria: when you click the logo at the top it takes you to the actual homepage, rather than a blog homepage. So if you want content on what Jellyfin is it’s only one click away.
Veracrypt 1.18 was audited in 2016 by the Open Source Technology Improvement Fund [0]. It is incredibly unlikely that a random NSA backdoor is sitting around on a high profile open source project like Veracrypt.

Huh. Just got some dust in my eye, but I'm fine now.
For this project, I used btrfs because it was quick to use as a proof-of-concept and I happened to be most familiar with it of the CoW-capable file systems.

But pg_branch is easy to extend with other snapshot-capable fs (it's a single trait, internally, that someone would need to implement). Happy to accept pull requests for supporting e.g. ZFS or XFS.
We have investigations into mitochondrial genetics and Alzheimer's. There's still a lot to learn but it's probably safe to assume there's a lot more going on. Treatment and even prevention for most will likely rely on attending to more than just mitochondrial abberations.
Theoretically, nothing prevents you from running `npm install` inside the specific package. Do you have any other approach?
Lots of ML applications don't generally care about latency, and throughput only matters per dollar (as you can just scale horizontally).

To my knowledge, most inferencing (at least for simpler models) happens on cheaper, slower GPUs that have better throughput/dollar.

I don’t think anyone is using Jellyfin because they have anxiety about what their laptop looks like on a TV stand.

My whole family uses Plex, they can operate it incredibly simply with a remote and don’t have to unplug and replug a thing. The simplicity is key, if you’re only catering for yourself/an exclusively techie audience then it’s not necessary.

Jellyfin is a Plex clone, yes. One I'm hoping to switch to since Plex banned all servers hosted on Hetzner.

> I wonder if there's ways to get the benefits of this while avoiding privacy issues.

There is. Get informed consent from the people before you record them.

> The best way I can think of preserve others privacy in an unobtrusive way would be to detect & remove other people's voices from any recordings (private by default).

I would consider this very insufficient because I've already been recorded at that point. But it would certainly be better than nothing.

Better, in my view, is to get informed consent first. That gives people a real option to protect their privacy rather than relying on your (or the product's) good graces to be well-behaved.
The Ford ad didn't say it was Midler, they just implied it by using her song with a soundalike. There was another similar case with a parody ruled as impersonation. I don't think there's good precedent for exactly where that line is drawn.
Sorry for the rant, but as someone who has used Jellyfin and similar apps like Kodi, I have to say I find their code quality and general software architecture to be crap. I wish there was a good alternative. A few examples:

I have installed the Jellyfin server on a Linux box, and the Jellyfin app on a playback device (Google Chromecast with Google TV, GCCWGTV). When the app detects the playback device or TV doesn't support, say, the 7.1 Dolby audio stream in the media file being played, it asks the server to transcode the media to something it supports (eg. stereo audio). But while doing so, it transcodes both video and audio, forcibly, even though it's only the audio track that's causing the problem. The server is forced to transcode on-the-fly a perfectly supported H.264 stream to... another H.264 stream of the same bitrate, while this could be avoided... facepalm In theory this is rather simple to fix, as the Jellyfin server is built on ffmpeg, and ffmpeg is perfectly capable of leaving the video stream unmodified while transcoding only the audio stream. But the fact the developer(s) chose to implement it this inefficiently doesn't give me much confidence in the rest of their architectural choices. Maybe this inefficiency was inherited when they forked Emby, so in that case redirect my rant toward Emby :-)

Another issue with Jellyfin is it is incapable of DTS 5.1 passthrough. DTS stereo passthrough works. Dolby 5.1 passthrough works. But not DTS 5.1 passthrough. At least on GCCWGTV. That boggles my mind, given DTS 5.1 is so ubiquitous. So because Jellyfin doesn't do DTS 5.1 passthrough, I must transcode to stereo. And because it must transcode the audio, it must also transcode the video (see above), taxing heavily my server CPU whenever it's playing media.

I have also experimented with Kodi. Something in the scrapers breaks every 6 months. And for everyone who knows the scrapers are primordial in a nice user experience in Kodi. But for some reason, in Kodi, scrapers are not first-party components. They are third-party poorly-maintained junk that seems developed by random people exchanging source code patches on the kodi web forums. Like the Universal Movie Scraper code trying to pull the movie title and description and actors from IMDB. Guess how this is implemented? By some hot garbage of XML file hundreds of lines long, containing regexes that have to be entity-encoded by hand when edited. What is this? The 2000s? I get it, that IMDB disallows "scraping" in their ToS, so Kodi doesn't want to include scraping code in their codebase, but that doesn't justify the low code quality found in scrapers. Use an actual language (Python, C#, anything) with an HTML parsing library, not some junk regexes.

I hate to sound so negative, in the end I'm still grateful for these apps which are open source and free, developed by unpaid volunteers. So, thanks, but man, I get frustrated with low code quality.
They do, generally at least before selling it to prove it works, as a working firearm has more value than one than doesn't.

Jellyfin is a fork of Emby, that happened when emby close-sourced a bunch of things and pissed everyone off.

It's not really a plex clone inasmuch as it's a truly self-hosted alternative, given that plex uses centralized auth (aka you're possibly back to VLC if your internet is out).

I've used Jellyfin for years now, hasn't really skipped a beat aside from dumping the entire library DB when it started without the library storage spun up, and even that was just a rescan overnight and everything was back and happy.
You could have made that argument more effectively in the past when voice actors had to be able to mimic multiple voices (Dan Castlenetta, Mel Blanc, etc.). Nowadays, we're seeing more and more shows where the voices of the characters are just... the normal voice of the voice actor.

Of course it's not totally devoid of skill, you need to be able to emote, inflect, and convey emotion, but the bar is far far lower.
There is a version with no constraints at all though. Must be fun to play with that version.
The “others” that wanted people to isolate themselves had an inflated sense of entitlement.

They were more than capable of isolating themselves and letting the rest of us live our lives, but they chose to freak out and push the politicians to impose their desires on the rest. After all, my neighbor did not have the authority to have me arrested for trespass if I showed up at a public park during curfew.

Politicians were more than capable of telling these people to go pound sand and stay isolated if they desired but they chose to go along with it. So maybe not 100% too down but pretty close to it, IMO.

Stock buybacks are different from wash trading.

When a company does a stock buyback it’s abundantly clear that the company is buying its own stock.

The point of wash trading is to make it seem like there’s more activity around a traded security than there really is. You’re artificially pumping the books and it’s extremely illegal with regular stocks
> I'd argue that you must use grapheme clusters for text editing and cursor position

Korean packs syllables into Han-script-like squares, but they are unmistakably composed of alphabetic letters, and are both typed and erased that way (the latter may depend on system configuration), yet the NFC form has only a single codepoint per syllable (a fortiori a single grapheme cluster). Hebrew vowel markings are (reasonably) considered to be part of the grapheme cluster including their carrier letter but are nevertheless erased and deleted separately. In both of those cases, pressing backspace will erase less than pressing shift-left, backspace; that is, cursor movement and backspace boundaries are different.

There are IIRC also scripts that will have a vowel both pronounced and encoded in the codepoint stream after the syllable-initial consonant but written before it; and ones where some parts of a syllable will enclose it. I don’t even want to think how cursor movement works there.

Overall, your suggestion will work for Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, and maybe other nonfancy scripts like Armenian, Ge’ez, or Georgian, but will absolutely crash and burn when used for others.
The idea sounds nice but politicians controlling an index would be an abject disaster.
Plex supports allow lists and deny lists. Nice to be able to gate most movies by rating and then allow some others on a per-movie basis.
If some tokenizer of a comma-separated list treats the comma (I'm assuming any 0x2C byte) as "just a comma" even if the value after it begins with a combining character, that's a broken, buggy tokenizer, and one that can potentially be exploited by providing some specifically crafted unicode data in a single field that then causes the tokenizer to misinterpret field boundaries. If you combine a character with something, that's not the same character anymore - it's not equal to that, it's not that separator anymore, and you can't tell that unless/until you look at the following codepoints. If the combined character isn't valid, then either the message should be discarded as invalid or the character replaced with U+FFFD, the Replacement Character, but it should definitely not be interpreted as "just a comma" simply because one part of some broken character matches the ASCII code for a comma.

If anything, your example is an illustration why it's dangerous to iterate over codepoints and not graphemes. Unless you're explicitly tranforming encodings to/from unicode, anything that processes text (not the encoding, but actual text content, like tokenizers do) - should work with graphemes as the basic atomic indivisible unit.

CentML ([https://centml.ai](https://centml.ai/)) | Director of Engineering (ML Inference), Developer Evangelist (ML Tools) | Full-time | US (San Francisco / Bay Area), Canada (Toronto)

CentML is on a mission on making modern ML affordable for everyone. Our origin and expertise is in machine learning systems space meaning we know a lot about computer architecture, compilers and ML frameworks. Our big insight is that there is a significant opportunity for system level performance tuning of the workloads so that we can alleviate the current GPU shortage by allowing to utilize mid-tier GPUs (i.e. A10 instead of A100s for inference) without sacrificing on performance.

I am one of the co-founders and I am focused on hiring the following two critical technical roles:

- Director of Engineering to lead our Inference Service. We’re looking for someone with an experience deploying large scale ML workloads and experience with compiler technologies.
- Developer Evangelist - for our machine learning tools, DeepView - https://docs.centml.ai/. DeepView is a profiler that we build specifically for ML practitioners to help them visualize the performance bottlenecks of their models and address them before deploying to production. This often results in significant cost savings. The tools are free and we need someone to help get the message out to the community.

I worked with a sociologist on a variety of projects which used sensors and cellphones to do computational social science. In the past, sociology was based on observing people, writing those observations down, and then thinking about them. Some statistics were gathered, but it was a very fuzzy science. Now, electronic devices and networks have made detailed big data about people available and sociologists are using it. Electronic surveys have replaced paper surveys and greatly increased scale. This happens mostly behind the scenes, such as research on the use of electronic medical records, marketing, employee motivation, etc. Take a look at her research projects here (and look up the people she worked with to see what else they are working on):

https://sph.umich.edu/faculty-profiles/anthony-denise.html

One of the things we did was build survey apps for phones which would sense activity and only pop up a question when a person wasn't doing much. The sensor data would also serve as a ground truth, telling us for example how much activity a person really did, versus how much they think they did. One early result from such research was that people think they are always doing things, rushing around, when the truth is they are sitting doing little for 95% to 99% of the day. We used the survey app to build a system to train a gait recognition machine learning algorithm for user authentication, where the survey app collected both sensor data and quick answers about what a person thought they were doing, where they were, were they walking, where they were... A lot of todays AI projects are essentially computational sociology, algorithms trained on peoples behavior that is used for predictions.

Business has bought up a lot of the sociology talent, to work with marketing, motivating employees, and changing peoples minds (somebody had to design those motivational posters in the hallways and some of them were based on sociology, lobbying campaigns to change public opinion are based on sociology, political campaigns use sociologists work).

I have a strong suspicion that all the Big Tech companies that collect lots of intimate data about people are employing sociologists to analyze that data and use it for many purposes, mostly related to advertising and motivating people to buy stuff, but also swaying opinion, making market decisions, investing, hiring and firing, and more. A common refrain in economics is that markets are unpredictable because you can't know what all the individual players are thinking, well now you can measure them and build models/AI. Big computational social science already exists at scale. I wonder what is being done with the health data from fitness trackers.

Similar things have been happening in economics. Unfortunately in both cases the data is being used mainly to gain special private knowledge about the social behavior of people, rather than informing the public or public policy. Because money. There are a few researchers who are more interested in the public good though.
Firing an antique firearm decreases the value. It is now used.
I'm using intimate in its sense of mutual relation rather than the content of discussion, though these aren't fully independent.

Borrowing from the Online Etymological Dictionary, "intimate" meaning "closely acquainted, very familiar", and which comes from the Latin intimus: "inmost, innermost, deepest".

<https://www.etymonline.com/word/intimate>

That is, an intimate relationship or conversation is one in which the participants are both engaging at their deepest and most personal level.

This contrasts strongly with a common experience online and in broadcast media of parasocial relationships.

Tom Scott has an excellent discussion of this in his 2019 video "There Is No Algorithm for Truth", at 33m36s: <https://yewtu.be/watch?v=leX541Dr2rU&t=33m36s>. Well worth watching.

Orderlies, kitchen help, cleaners, gardeners, construction laborers, nannies... Those hard jobs here are just not staffed without migrant labor. The scarcity is such that the government avert their eyes from all the illegal work: those industries would dysfunction otherwise. Immigration policy does not follow economic logic but the political requirement to cater to xenophobia.

I've traveled in 25 African countries. Everyone and his dog has an Android in his pocket with varying amounts of data access. Yes, some in small towns still entertain illusions, but they are not the ones who travel most. Those are the ones with sufficient education, family connections, friends, motivation and money to make an informed bet and quickly integrate. The goat herder in rural Mali has no idea about Paris but the urban student in Dakar most definitely knows.

And that is the surprising part: desire to migrate follows a bell curve: as people becomes richer and better educated, desire to migrate grows, until sufficient development has been obtained and then, witness Mexico, desire to migrate declines.
