When I visit Germany, I am astounded at how many of my German coworkers dislike fresh air in the office. A beautiful 25c sunny day with a nice breeze, and I opened the window near my desk. Within five minutes, someone has closed it and given me a dirty look (no, the air conditioning is not on.)

"Neural networks" as in chatgpt and friends have almost nothing to do with "neural networks" as understood in biology, more than a passing analogy to how synapses fire. I'm very skeptical of projects which seek to conflate the two in some vague way.

That's true in principle, but in this case I think that the existence of search engines is a net social good and I think it would be a big loss for all of us if they disappeared. Not that the days of web rings and hand-curated website lists didn't have their own charm but I think that the net effect would be a huge increase in the power of walled gardens.

We've been affected by these fake DMCA for one months now and there is ZERO support from Shopify.

(thanks to the OP for shedding light on this situation)

Running a business through Shopify has become very risky these days.

We are now working on transferring our online stores to Woocommerce where it is far more difficult to get your content removed with bogus DMCA.

Picture the situation to understand the Nightmare:

1) You are driving paid traffic to a product page with good ROAS because your ads are optimized after months.

2) Then the competitor submits a fake DMCA

3) Your page is content is removed automatically by Shopify (no check on their end)

4) Your optimized ads are now directing customers to an empty page

5) Then you risk having your ads accounts flagged

You might think you could just redirect the url to a duplicate?
That would be a great solution indeed. BUT

6) The competitor is monitoring your product page and immediately submits another fake DMCA

7) You redirect again

8) Then another fake DMCA

Now WAIT for the cherry on the Cake.

9) After 4 or 5 fake DMCA, you Shopify account admin is locked

10) You may even get suspended automatically by shopify

11) Then you can no longer fulfill your orders from customers

12) Then your customers start making chargebacks

13) Then the payments processors on which you've built a reputation over the years can suspend you

14) Shopify (zero)support asks you to reply to the DMCA with a counter notice and WAIT for the Trust & Safety Team to get back to you

15) Then you receive an auto reply from them telling you that the other party has been informed and that you may repost your content in 2 weeks unless the scammer has filed a court action.

16) Then after 2 weeks, you repost your content

17) Then the same or the next day, the same scammer (watching you like a hawk) issues another fake DMCA for the same product page through the same fake account.

ISN'T IT BEAUTIFUL?

Shopify could literrally STOP 80% of these false DMCA by just adding a field on their rudimentory form: asking to verify a phone number or upload an ID but NO, that seems to be a task too Challenging for a billion dollar company like Shopify
Theseus OS
Some charity shops (e.g. Oxfam) no longer take mains-powered electronics - my guess is because of the burden of testing them to make sure they're safe. Others will take computers but have various prohibitions - for instance, the Red Cross won't take computer hard drives (they say they're not legally allowed to sell hard drives containing software); the British Heart Foundation won't take gaming machines.
Gall's law and how it applies to software architecture
Lots of people buy these on a finite hobby budget.
It seems like under Australian law there's a concept of a "secondary publisher" of defamatory content, which would typically be a bookstore or library. So, the actual publisher, author, etc. can be held liable for defamation, but also, if the bookstore has been notified that it is selling a defamatory book and does not take it off the shelf, it too can be held liable.

In this case, the woman notified Google that their search results for her were defamatory, Google did not take them down, and Google was held to be a secondary publisher because their algorithm actively determined what URL to show, what snippet to show, etc.

>Nobody with money cares about e-waste. Those of us on a tight budget value our devices and lament the difficulty of repair.

People on a tight budget are more concerned about the budget impact of repairability far more than the waste too (which makes sense).

And the hundreds of millions with not so tight budget, still buy all kinds of crap, like "fast fashion" and the latest gadgetry.

The newer generation smart meters operate on their own network, so that its critical and separate infrastructure so this won't happen again in the future. Also you have to be pretty set on not getting a smart meter as it removes you from a lot of competitive energy deals, especially ones with a cheaper night rate.
I'm going to be honest, here we are techies which are supposed to be intellectual to an extent. We should be able to handle more violent truths natively: e.g. seeing images like that.

Through understanding, we can dismiss a chunk of the fear/repulsion we might feel for images such as those.
There isn’t a (single) worldwide equivalent of DCF77, because the radio signals have limited propagation and they are tied to a specific time zone. If you are in North America there isn’t a signal per timezone, so you have to configure your clock’s offset. For me in Cambridge there isn’t very good reception of MSF during the day, so I have to wait for night time if I want to reset my radio clocks.

Afaik a settlement against a company like google is essentially win for a couple reasons -- if Google could win on merit, they can afford to do so; but if they were going to lose, the cost of completing the trial would be even higher than a settlement.

Poe's death remains a mystery. He was found on the streets of Baltimore in a delirious state, wearing clothes that weren't his. He died a few days later, and the exact cause of his death remains unknown. There have been numerous theories, from alcohol poisoning to rabies.
It would certainly exert an "adapt or die" pressure on that species' prey and their competition in the food chain. Although, nature seldom selects for intelligence.
It's quite simple in my view.

The "separate markup and styling" paradigm with shared css will lead to refactors having a large blast radius. When you've organised your team by mapping people -> features(components), this makes this paradigm completely unviable. Tailwind wins there, that's it.

For web apps, having separate markup and styling makes absolutely zero sense, while it does for textual, reading content like blogs.

So, web apps like to use tailwind/bootstrap.

Reaaaaalllly large web apps (e.g GitHub) swing the pendulum all the way around, and make their own little bootstrap which adheres to their design language.

But how can you notify Google of anything?

Even when you report an important bug, bots and "product experts" just shrug it off. The only "notification" for Google is a lawsuit it seems.
I am using a perfectly normal domestic IP. If the user agent must be used, it is to detect a Big Tech web engine, namely to switch to the "web app", but if such web engine is not detected, it should have the decency to default to a noscript/basic (x)html portal, if reasonable, of course, aka small tech.

> It's not likely that orcas' brains are changing on an anatomical level, said Josh McInnes, a marine ecologist who studies orcas at the University of British Columbia. "Behavioral change can influence anatomical change in an animal or a population" — but only over thousands of years of evolution, McInnes told Live Science.

> But orcas are fast learners, which means they can and do teach each other some terrifying tricks, and thus become "smarter" as a group.

It feels weird to use quotations on "smarter" or pretend this is a complicated concept when it's just describing how humans achieved greater intelligence faster than the speed of evolution.
It’s true. They are surprisingly cheap to insure. The current theory is that they are new and insurance companies don’t have enough data yet. Everyone expects rates to skyrocket as more $40k repair bills come in.
I don't think this matters at all. The poorest in America are above average on the global level when it comes to quality of life. Yet the actual poorest citizens of the world seem to have no problems staying married and raising children.
Did you read what started it all? She's in no way a heroic.
The software-implementation would not have to be a direct emulation of what the hardware does. You are working with the type-system of whatever sandboxed language you are running, and can make much more high-level decisions about what accesses would be legal or not, or how they should get translated, instead of having to go through table lookups on each and every memory access. If you trust the JIT or the compiler you can even make many of the decisions ahead of time, or hoist them outside of loops to virtually eliminate any overhead.

A lot has happened since Smalltalk.
Good grief, she hardly spent every waking moment on it.

Show HN: Askpot – Competitive Analysis Tool
Hey HN,

A month ago my startup failed, and I thought "Oh, here we go again - look up for a new niche, look up for competitors, spend some time to competitive analysis".

And I hate this part of competitive analysis when I need to look through all this landing pages just to understand what they offer and what is the difference.

So I've built this tool - you can just type in URL of product or service and get all basic info like UVP, Positioning, pricing and so on.

Also you can customize analysis parameters and use this tool for example to analyze educational programs or something else.

I'll be grateful for some feedback
I wish sites had standardized on NSFL in addition to marking things NSFW. (Speaking generally, not specifically about HN here)

Or work like the conventional commits standard, and use "CW(nudity)" and "CW(gore)" where CW = Content Warning.

But then you'd have people pedantically arguing over exactly what words to use. Maybe tags instead? "CW(nature,gore,sea,flesh)".

Of course then you'd be relying on people's good graces to classify the links correctly. I have some hope that at least a sizable minority would use the content warnings correctly, mostly because of Lemmy and Mastodon. On the fediverse, people often make an effort to describe the images they post in descriptive text, so maybe they'd classify links well enough?
So you already gave up both lol.
That's quite the edge case, though.

This is exceedingly useful for so many use cases.

E.g. internal tools that display locations of assets, system statuses, webpages that display store locations, and so forth.

Plenty of use cases where the costs for Googles APIs would exceed the dev costs for implementing something like this.
can't remember where i read it but apparently these things can detect an object the size of coke can in space or something.

whether it's true or not i dunno but it's kinda cook to think about.
A use case I used it for recently was to encase multiple scripts and even files into one script.

Congratulations. Your children are clearly knowledgeable and sophisticated users of technology.

Most kids don't get that far. They don't have parents like you (or me) to give them one to one help and encouragement.

> The only 'advantage' is that micro:bit might be easier to teach

Thats the point. Start with simple, concrete stuff. Work up to the complicated, abstract stuff. Basic pedagogy. Raspberry Pis undoubtedly have their place, but they're less than ideal teaching platforms if your aim is to get children interested and enthusiastic about tech, rather than simply being "users".

(As for future proof skills, I suspect you know as well as I do that nothing ever is - as the absence of BBC Model Bs in todays classrooms demonstrates.)
This is not good enough. I wonder if they'll backflip on "Shopify is replacing customer service with AI chatbots"[1].

> drop virtual memory mapping support from CPUs, making them faster.

In the video, his argument was that the browsers are single-process anyway, and if everything runs in that process, we don't need that separation. However, since then, we've learned that single-process browsers are a security nightmare, so these days browsers are actually not single-process anymore to provide proper sandboxing.

But I love how close to correct that video is, and it's interesting to see in what ways it turned out to be wrong.

HN is one of the last places that needs trigger warnings and content warnings.
Go watch Ron talks at this conference and Open Compute project. He and others have done an amazing to make sure its possible in the first place to use open fireware. And you know what, its not just 'technical' it has to do with politics and community.

If you want something 'specific' then I would point you to the Open Compute Project that has now basically mandated that certified servers allow consumers to install alternative fireware. That required a lot of effort and lobbying.

At the same time creating a community of users and vendors that enable new platforms before they are even released. Go look at the coreboot git to see this work.

The lobbying of the community has lead to AMD next generation boot firmware, OpenSil to be open source. Again, this didn't come out of no-where.
> But how can you notify Google of anything?

Same way you notify any other company about anything. Registered letter sent to the corporate headquaters.
Yeah. Just go with x86. If you like adventures go with the Raspberry Pi. If all you need is the cheapest CPU, then enjoy messing around with obsolete kernels I guess.
In theory you could do that yourself with a vector basemap. Wouldn't it be great if browser minimum font size applied to absolutely everything (ie. minimum font size actually means "I cannot read anything below this size so never render it like that").
On the other hand, if you are a Swiss resident and employed for more than 8 hours per week, you're insured from accidents by your employer(=totally free to go to the hospital in case of an accident).

If you work less than that, the accident insurance premium is not that high(less than 50 CHF per month).
Defamation laws are complicated. In some countries you can be purely factual and still commit the crime of diffamation. An example is talking about someone's involvement in some criminal activity, implying the person in question is a himself a criminal when he is in fact a victim. It is true, but it is still using deceptive tactics (lying by omission in this case) to damage someone's reputation.

Here, what I understood made it defamation is that Google autocompleted the defendant name to “janice duffy psychic stalker”. No "Joe says" here.

Victim aside, I think it is an important case, and probably the reason why it took so long. By autocompleting, Google puts up information without context, and I think it is normal to hold the company responsible more than for regular search results. In my opinion, Google simply shouldn't autocomplete people names with accusations, true or not. Not only it opens them to defamation, like in this case, but there is enough negativity in this world that I feel like having autocomplete say bad things on people, even assholes, is doing the world a disservice.
.com has awesome recognition and seo, in my experience always ranking before the same .org, .net, .io, ...
Paging and lookaside tables are needed for virtual->physical translation. The idea is that a pure software based implementation wouldn't need it at all, at most it would use something segment-like (with just a base offset and segment bound) that it is much easier to handle.

Then again, that's the theory, in practice there are many reasons why hardware moved from early segment based architectures to paging, and memory isolation is only one of them.
That line doesn't say that Google didn't show up. It says that she acted as her own lawyer.

I sort of agree although the prospective buyer here may not be very design-focused.

I wonder quantities they're building. IMO the steps up to take would be SLA (which can look really nice with post processing), or for higher volumes urethane casting, or once you hit a thousand units actually having a metal tool made.
Even taking this as premise, it doesn’t mean it should not be mentioned.

Knowledge that some hypothesis where disproved is also crucially important to understating and formation of sounder models.

Regarding the adequacy of the assertion itself, every reader should judge by themselves to which level it extends.
