> which doesn't have an index, and therefore requires a full scan of the file in order to show a file list

Well, not exactly _full_, unless you're talking compressed files. You can be smart and skip ahead to read the next file's metadata by knowing the current file's size. GNU tar and FreeBSD tar already do this; getting a listing of millions of files for a hundreds-of-gigabytes tar is nearly instant this way.

Compressing the archive does throw a wrench into it. You'll have to decompress the whole thing in that case.
You're saying it sees someone as if AI is walking around and this all happened by random chance.

No. What happened was AI scientists deliberately built a giant corpus of training data based off unlicensed imagery that was conveniently pre-tagged - Artstation and other sites of the same type. And it was trained to deliberately create images of the exact same type as it was ingesting. It wasn't "randomly learning about the world" and it certainly did not "stumble upon" these images.

The fact that there was a large corpus of artistic imagery already tagged just revealed itself to be too appetizing for AI training, so a few companies did it in secret, without asking anyone for permission, then hoping to make enough money and VC funding that they would defeat any challenge in court.

So yes, those people who made the original images should get paid.
Nations setting up financial regulations on who you can and cannot pay is a standard accounting practice these days. If you consider that a tight control, then we're already far past that.
I find virtual meetings to sometimes be more tiring because often at least one participant will have a poor mic setup, making it hard to listen to them.

It's also easier to multitask, like if support asks for help, which is a much more demanding.
This seems to be still incomplete, there were a couple of people murdered in Netivot in the rocket barrage, which are not marked on this map. Plus I think they're still recovering bodies.

Also: it doesn't seem to be the exact location of each individual murdered/kidnapped, instead it seems that they are scattered randomly from the city/town/kibbutz in which they were murdered/kidnapped. I believe this is the case because one family I personally know (father killed, the rest kidnapped) seem to be scattered randomly across their town, but they were all taken from their home. Not complaining, I'm sure that this is best-effort for now, and will get more accurate as we get more details.

Gecko should be decoupled from Firefox (embeddable)

Chromium's huge and underappreciated weakness is that their font rendering on Windows is horrible (at standard 96 DPI anyway), FF could've capitalized on things like that.
By "strangling" its leadership and "strangling" Chromium. That can only be done by doing substantial development without Mozilla's consent and filling niches where Google have no profit.
Both are impossible feats though.

I don't think Mozilla is dead like it seemed a year ago though, obviously nowadays it's as influential (close to zero) as some companies like Atlassian.

Generally in aluminum parts in aerospace, locking stainless steel threads inserts (“helicoils”) are added for pullout strength, repairability, reducing risk of damage when fastening multiple times and to meet the requirement (which almost always exists) for secondary back-off prevention (primary is usually controlled preload). The locking feature is 1-2 threads in the insert that are deformed to provide a decent amount of friction even if preload is lost. But for a special case like this it’s possible a unique design was used; I would be interested to read about it.

From the images, it’s not clear which fasteners are removed but if the issue is not access it could be a stuck fastener for whatever reason and maybe a rounded head. I wouldn’t be surprised if nothing is damaged but the procedure was stopped due to higher than expected torque, and they are taking it slow to decide how to proceed.
Tbf on one hand, 3rd party controllers are often absolute crap for all platforms, cheap shitty stuff.

IMHO bcachefs has important advantages over ZFS. It is far more flexible. ZFS is really similar to traditional block-based RAID. You can get pretty flexible configurations but 1. They are largely fixed after creation and 2. They only operate at "dataset" level granularity.

bachefs has a really flexible design here where you basically add all of your disks to the storage pool and then you can pick redundancy and performance settings per folder (arbitrary subtrees, not just datasets decided at setup time) or even file. For example you can configure a default of 2 replicas for all data, but for your cache directory set it to 1 replica. If you have an important documents folder you can set that to 3 replicas, or 4.2 erasure coding.

Similarly you can tell it to put your cache folder on devices labeled "ssd" but your documents folder should write to "ssd" but then be migrated to "hdd" when they are cold.

And again, all of this can be set at any time on any subtree. Not just when you initially set up your disks or create the directories.

> What is there to fix?

My impression of Mozilla as a company over the last decade is that they are in the business of burning money under the pretext of doing good. And while doing that, they ignore the product which enables them to earn the money.

> I use Firefox as my daily driver, and I think it's already flawless.

It's not bad, but far less than what it once was and could be.

> To me all major browsers look and feel the same.

The differences are deeper than just visual gimmicks. But true, on the core-abilities there is not much more than this. And this is a big problem too, it seems people today don't even know what's possible in this space. It's all the same, because to few people know it better.

> What exactly do you believe Firefox does wrong that Chrome of even Edge or Safari do right?

It's wrong to be the same as the leader. Be different.

Brave, Vivaldi, Opera, they are all different, and they sell well enough with being different. Firefox has nothing like that, it's just building on a history they mostly buried.
Also, the numbers are so ridiculously small. They won't find any of those 14 accoustic differences again in another sample of people.
Yeah, the single external display is the biggest limiting factor for me. The performance is generally there (except for more heavy compilations). I'm thinking of picking up a M3 Pro Mac Mini when those eventually release to combat the display limitations.

These SOCs could have a better future if they had Linux support to a satisfactory level. I wouldn't touch a Windows ARM device with a ten foot pole, unless of course I can boot Linux on it. Software support is abysmal. On the other hand, due to open source nature of Linux land, the software support is vastly superior provided that the OEM provides upstream drivers.

>You can't copy something you're not aware of.

If that was the case, babies would not be able to learn how to speak.
I would suggest the following explanation:

You could break people up into political and wealth-based quadrants:
1. Conservative and rich
2. Conservative and poor
3. Liberal and rich
4. Liberal and poor

Consider the typical expressed beliefs of quadrants 1 and 2. Both advocate that individualism and an internal locus of control can help you succeed in life. The difference is whether they have "succeeded in life" (by socioeconomic measures/ whatever).

Consider the same for quadrants 3 and 4. They would typically be more likely to advocate for the idea that success is based on luck. Again, the difference between 3 and 4 is whether they have not "succeeded."

Of all the quadrants, quadrant number 3 (liberal and rich) has a unique cognitive dissonance between their lived reality and their stated moral position. They tend to believe that rich people have achieved their wealth largely through luck, and now have power and autonomy that others lack. They state that the rich should help the poor, and they are rich, so they continually must justify their own wealth. This type of cognitive dissonance does not exist in the same way for the other 3 quadrants. That's why TFA is inevitably critical of the left for its luxury beliefs moreso than the right.
As I said I don't see spam on the site (other than these deep leaf node posts surfaceable only by pinpoint targeted searches which is not normal usage) so I think it's gotten a lot better. You so far haven't convinced me that it's worse, but you're free to question things.

You are partially right in that Italian is not perfectly phonetic, but it's in such a different league from English that (100% - Italian) is a rounding error with respect to (sanity -English) ;-)

Still, Italian is still perfectly phonetic in writing: can you imagine never having to ask how to spell a town name, or a family name? Can you imagine a word where spelling bees do not exist because they could make no sense? If you hear it, you can spell it.

By the way, your example of "tʃ, dʒ" is spot on, as in you cannot guess how a Z character is to be read, but in practice very few people ever notice. Concerning "ŋ", I think only Italian linguists know about it as a separate phoneme.

You are wrong, instead, about "ɲ": "gn" is always pronounced as in "gnocchi".

The reports of emulation and native apps on Windows seem pretty compelling to me, and the battery life improvements are substantial. For people who live in browsers (most people), it's not that hard.

The more compelling reason for fragmentation is that AMD and Intel will stay with x86 as long as they can, and high prices from Qualcomm will keep people from shifting over en mass.

Firefox is a product that hasn't found any way of monitization. Without money they cannot implement the features that chrome offers and web developers use on their web products. As such users will have zillion of little bugs, be annoyed which make them move to chrome and the circle will continue.

Let it die. Let Google be sued and forced to break Chrome away. Let every engine be based on the same engine. Less bugs. Easier for developers. Less user problems.
You're arguing something slightly different. The artist has copyright as soon as the work is published, whether they register it or not. You can't sue unless you've registered.

You are applying an outdated mental framework to AI, not to mention a falacious view on the relation between copyright protection and the incentive for art. Have in mind that millions of humans have historically produced enormous amounts of art with no copyright protection of any kind. The protections you are trying to defend are a relatively recent phenomenon (~200 years); arguably, some of our best art was created well before these protections existed!

Additionally, the beauty of contemporary AI is that it's much more similar to the mechanism of inspiration and learning that humans employ than, let's say, the literal copy of a photo. I think it's reasonable for an artist to limit the visibility of their work and prohibit their images from being shared online and used by AI training - but this must apply across the board. If their image is public in a way that anyone could see it, and be inspired by it, then they need to accept that the AI could be equally "inspired" by it.

If you want an easy, concrete example of the process of inspiration and copying taking place for humans, just look at Animes. Styles are imitated by humans left and right, with no concern of original artists losing their livelihood. Human Anime artists copy their idols when learning to draw, oftentimes producing literal imitations for years before starting to produce their own original work, which to be honest usually greatly resembles the source of inspiration (PS: I like Animes, but most of it is very similar in terms of artistic style).

Do humans ever really "invent" any art? Or are the artistic innovators simply a mix of influence of existing art, the natural images of nature/life plus a spice of randomness? Because that's pretty much how AI art functions.

If you're posting on this site, you're not just 'an adult', you're likely well off, financially literate, are able to delay gratification, and have a great deal more bargaining power than the average joe.

You are going on an irrelevant tangent (whether people enjoying being creative - which is obviously true at least for some) instead of answering a very clear and simple question: how, in your evolved and less broken universe, will talented people dedicate their life to produce something that society does not acknowledge or reward but simply appropriates.
This is 100% correct. Muscles that aren't used in your mouth/articulators (because your native language doesn't require them) atrophy over time.

We call it "a gym for your mouth" :D It's hard work, but it's the best way to get results.

There's a general conflict of interest here between commercial real estate investors and employees.

The debate is not whether working in the office is or can be beneficial. It is whether return to office mandates are beneficial.
Nothing, so far. The alternatives to that would be to legislate penalties for paying, to mandate certain precautions like regular offline backups (which could usually be done through regulation), to forbid the government from doing business with entities that have paid in the past X time (procurement regulations are somewhat flexible) and/or to task some government agency with aiding private sector entities in recovery if they don't pay (which has varying difficulty depending on the jurisdiction).

Obviously none of these make it impossible, but the goal needs to be to tip the value proposition the other way.
