(not defending Google here) I believe that YT costs money to operate. So when I use it without watching ads (which is exactly what I do), I kinda cheat a few cents from them per day/month/year.

It could interpolate from the original source - the full code of open source codebases and their docs.

It'd only get worse in cases where only a human had access to the knowledge or the means of attaining that knowledge.
Of course, I meant Serbia since Galaksija comes from today's Serbia as well as it's creator, a very prominent man today.

What was scary in Serbia? And I agree, Jelen is bottom of the barrel. Only worse than thet would be private store brands, and you might even find better than Jelen among them.
What is the problem if you think this is the answer? >> Ethical Capitalism, that aligns individual profits to the Common Good.
(Is this US model only, EU model only, CHina, or a global model? Depending on your answer you will have different force fields, and constraints. This is a dead meat from a get go).

This sentence indicates that your concept does not and cannot have depth. To unpack that sentence, you would need perhaps few dozens of volumes to get this into technical working concept.

Ethos -> which model, and why that one?

Capitalism -> another model of economic thought which has transformed so much since times of A. Smith that nobody even knows what is "capitalism", and it means different things to different countries/people

Common -> who is the common (a human, legal entities, a particular state structure, a nation, a set of allies. And why that choice?)

Good -> This is obviously beyond description or characterization in any meaningful way. Why?

And as Y.H idea of slowing down AI, this is of cause utter nonsense originating from (my judgement) him serving two different masters. I still think he knows better, but he cannot say so. It is intellectual dishonesty.
Interesting, from the title I thought Elastic was disclosing a backdoor in Elasticsearch. However, this is the security team disclosing that they found a new piece of malware.
My example is a bit of a contrived stretch, but laws are hard to reason about as they're not binary:

Someone that designed a robot that goes to the movie theater, sits in your seat, and streams the movie to your computer so you can go to the movies from home.

And then it also ends up not showing or "removing" the ads that get shown in the beginning of the movie before it starts.
Yes. MOND predicts the keplerian decline, due to the EFE, hence:

In standard cosmology keplerian decline is predicted because other galaxies have it. It makes no sense at all from the structure of DM halos that galaxies are supposed to have.
Just like "the war in [insert country], is responsible for our woes", I feel that "AI™ is making StackOverflow redundant" is very incorrect and short-sighted. Even before this renewed AI frenzy StackOverflow has been failing to build a solid business. They tried ( and apparently failed ) to capitalize on job postings, which IMO is a miss on their part because given the traffic and eyeballs it's the perfect place for that. But either way..

The anal retentive people that we complain about, are the same ones who fed the AI. When they don't have a home to torment us, where will the AI get the answers? Training on code is "cute", but not enough.
I had a look at the C sources of the original coreutils, and I have to say that I seriously doubt the Rust version will add performance. Safety? Maybe, but these are mature programs that have been studied a lot. A new coreutils suite with hundreds of programs will have to go through the bug-fixing and compatibility issue-tracking-dance all over again.

I don't want my coreutils programs to have slight deviations from how they used to behave. What is the actual benefit of doing this? For example, with musl we had the benefit of easy access to static linking. Eventually they added "minimal dynamic linking," which is sort-of a feature in itself. It took a long time for feature parity, though, and it never reached the performance levels of glibc.
> That way commercial works that are very economically valuable can be protected for a pretty long time, but everything makes it into the public domain relatively quickly.

There was not, at least not on my phone (s10e/s23). I've been using it for years without interruption.
The problem with this though, is that commonly a requirement (ticket) does not map exactly to a single code repository.

I feel that it is breaking encapsulation in a sense to be dealing with issues at the repo level. The repo and the code are implementation details of the business requirements. The tickets describing requirements belong at the next level up of abstraction?
? Man, I still use a buck. Didn't realize how much that had changed.

Guess used to be if a beer was 2, and you tip a buck, it is 50%
Now a Beer is 6, and you tip a buck, it is ~16%.

But really, 50% was way too much to begin with, it was just convenient accounting when hammered.
I'd argue that ChatGPT is worse, especially for beginners, for two reasons:

1) Nobody thinks that Stack Overflow is a magic oracle. Most people do think that ChatGPT is.

2) Quality of Stack Overflow answers can be quickly judged by looking at upvotes. Lots of upvotes does not guarantee that an answer is quality, but it is a signal that is very useful especially when you aren't capable of judging the answer yourself.
Current cutoff date is Jan 2022. That's iOS 15 out for a couple of months which is good enough for most things in my experience. If your deployment target really already is iOS 16, the gaps can be filled with the documentation and other sources.
My experience differs:

- Ask ChatGPT (or a similar AI chat bot) a question, it at best gives some at most semi-true answer. In the best situation, I can immediately see myself where the mistake in the answer is.

- Look at Stack Overflow: very often find an answer

- In the rare situation that I cannot find an answer on Stack Overflow, and ask a question: get a good answer (often many good answers) after a few hours that let(s) me realize that I have a lot to learn about the respective programming topic, which I will do.
The really depressing thing is it's not just a diminishment of purchasing power, it's a transfer of purchasing power to those who first get to spend the newly created money (which tends to be financial institutions and people with the wealth/connections to gey big loans). Which needn't necessarily be the case, if the inflation occurred via evenly distributed "helicopter money" rather than the current approach.

I feel the same about the crypto ecosystem, and yet this comment is correct. The value of the crypto jobs doesn't matter, and doesn't make the points go away.

A thoughtless idea that expresses something you like, is still a thoughtless idea and can't actually attain the desired goal everyone involved says they want.

It doesn't matter how much you also don't like the thing that the thoughtless idea aims to combat. It doesn't matter how much we all agree that most crypto jobs are bad.

That amendment is so overly broad the author should be forced to re-take some sort of how to draft bills class.

It would require fingerprinting for purchases of "certain 3D printers". What does that even mean? I guess the existing law defined what "firearm" means in the context of that law, but if I was a retailer selling 3D printers, I would have some serious questions about it.

My 5-year-old entry level 3D printer could probably print parts of a firearm, but those parts would probably not be very durable to a point they would be completely unusable. Would selling that printer be subject to this law? Who the f** knows. I don't think the author of the bill knows either.

I don't think it was ever claimed that C was a low level language. In fact I have always heard it as the canonical reference for an example of a high level language. I will admit that in this day and age C feels like a low level language.

Lower level is something that maps more directly to machine operation (assembly, maybe forth).

Higher level is something that has it's own semantics of operation and need to be converted to into the machine operation, the more conversion the higher the level.

It looks like they've had quite a few large scale rounds of layoffs: 15% in 2020 (https://www.businessinsider.com/stack-overflow-reduces-workf...), 10% in March this year (https://stackoverflow.blog/2023/05/10/a-message-from-prashan...) and now another 28%. That seems like far more than other companies that their employees could choose to work at in total.

I imagine that people are now going to demand a premium to work there - they might only be able to attract the kind of people that want to treat it like contract work and expect a premium for insecure work to cover their expenses while they look for the next contract. I imagine this will put the company at a significant disadvantage compared to where it was before. Finding any marginally profitable use for their surplus employees (even if it is building a different product or even taking on some contracting) while they wait for the workforce to shrink through attrition would probably have been better for their company long term.
Other origins are available.
I think this statement at the end of the article - 'There is a common myth in software development that parallel programming is hard.' - is misleading. Granted the author denotes explicit situations where it is not hard, but if it's applicable in general, then it is hard. Not a common myth.

Is parallel programming hard? Without any further details or specifics, yes it is. It is far harder to conceptualize code instructions executing simultaneously, than one-at-a-time in a sequential order.

What would you say about a yearly fee per every employee, if company owns a multifunctional printer? Also in EU.
I disagree. I think one can see plausibility in multiple interpretations of the future. The Culture "makes sense" to me in the same way that The Expanse's view of intra-system colonization efforts. I find the capitalist nature of the world in Pandora's Star "makes sense" same as the Culture. To me it's about seeing the possibility of a future built on a recognizable seed of plausibility for "what could be."

Ask HN: Curated Web Search?
Are there any search engines out there that limit results to useful sites instead of content farms and SEO-optimized garbage?

There are tons of blogs, forums and hobbyist sites filled with useful info, but they're drowned out in search results by SEO spam sites. It seems search engines could identify quality sites by asking users to click an "is this useful" link.

Or have any dedicated hobbyists created curated search engines in their realm of interest (cooking, gardening, automotive, software, etc.) that limit results to a range of high quality, non click bait sites?

Really feels like Stack Overflow lost a huge bet for their cultural relevance in how late they were to embracing AI. An idea I saw at the time when ChatGPT was picking up steam was to generate an automatic AI to every question, then have contributors edit/vote up/vote down the AI response - basically treat it like any other response but have it built in. Wonder where it would be if that approach was taken.

Instead of anything that, they let mods use a bullshit sniff test, then changed their mind on that and got into an embarrassing war with their mods. Obviously there's a little bit of empathy to be had for the mods in terms of dealing with generated answers, but the answer of banning them outright seemed very kneejerky and a plainly bad idea and entirely ignorant of where the winds were blowing. An awareness of how the mods were responsible for turning SO into the... interesting place it was at the time and being prophylactic about fixing the culture they had created towards the end of the 2010s would have helped prevent this.

Instead here we are, a year removed from the beginning of this and it really feels like the Stack Overflow is a much, much smaller part of my life than it once was. Sure, in a few years the training data for GPT will be worse, but it's not like I don't still find Python 2.x answers when clicking on SO links, and I can paste in the new docs, and not worry about whether some random moderator is having a good day or not.

It's sad, really. In time we'll see Stack Overflow's decline as preventable (at least to an extent), and view it as a case of what happens when the strong leadership that's needed to disagree with a loud minority is absent. Whatever you think SO should have done, I'm sure that you think what they did end up doing was not what was the best play for them.

> If his rights to the IP had expired after 20 years then not only would Netflix been able to rip his work off for free, but he wouldn't have benefitted at all from the resurgence in popularity that his novels garnered. It would've just been gravy for some publishing company -- how would that be fair?

Presumably in the same way that if you sell the mineral rights on a plot of land to someone else, and then they find oil or rubies there, it's thought of as fair that they get the money from that and you don't.

Or how if you sell someone a stock, and it goes up, they get the money from the appreciation and you don't.

Or how if your neighbor finds buried treasure on his land, and you find none on yours, he gets a big finder's fee and you don't get anything. (Indeed, in this case, there are commonly accusations of unfairness, but those tend to focus on the treatment of the neighbor being unfair. You deserved the nothing that you got.)

What's a scenario where this kind of event wouldn't be called fair?
If I were engineering a light gun from a blank slate, I would probably first try Nintendo's method and see if I could meet requirements that way. It seems less timing-dependent and faster to market. It may also reduce the differences between NTSC and PAL versions of the product.

Of course, blanking out the target for a frame makes the solution not scale well to a large number of targets. Presumably, one would perform something like a binary search (flash all targets, then flash half the targets if there was a hit somewhere, etc.) for a large number of targets.
But the underlying payments network isn't necessarily Visa/Mastercard's. In the case of France, there's Cartes Bancaires https://www.cartes-bancaires.com/, which you can pay through regardless of your card type (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) as an alternative over paying through the Visa/Mastercard/Amex networks.

And of course with GDPR, there are actual restrictions on how Visa/Mastercard can monetise your transaction history, and with banking regulations, how much of a cut they can take.
