Great job! If you're ever in the neighborhood consider yourself invited. The idea of a fully open modular audio mixer sounds fantastic and I really hope that you'll be able to make this work on whatever level you intend to, it's so frustrating to have to have a windows box or a mac because those are the only drivers available for a particular mixer or because otherwise a whole raft of features present in the hardware isn't available.
it's more like a voice chat version of character.ai

I've seen quite a few bootcamps where the future employer funded the camp for people who finally got a job. Needless to say, these places were set up for maximum efficiency. Sure, a few minor changes can be made, but the core of the work isn't changing.
> The same thing happened with Java dev and IntelliJ, and IMHO it has been extremely unhealthy for the ecosystem.

While I agree, at the very least IntelliJ stood up on its own as a good IDE. I cut my baby teeth on Eclipse, and as soon as I realised how good IntelliJ is, I jumped ship without looking back. The same can barely be said about VS Code.

"It is straightforwardly illegal to decompile source code, recompile it, and the distribute the recompiled binary."

According to what? If the rules are so poorly defined that way then maybe it's not a bad thing to disregard them.
Because simply decompiling source code and then recompiling it isn't a simple one-step thing in the way you suggest, not even close.
No comment on human exceptionalism per se but I think you have the logic a little backwards. The "higher" process would be to act according to reason, not according to one's dopamine receptions.

Yes, you are right. But concerns about fraud are still understandable. I try to avoid scammers, so I select games for myself on the https://gamblizard.ca/best-canadian-online-casinos/real-mone... service, where all the sites offered are legal and verified.

My wife and I are moving from a Bortle 9 (NYC) to a Bortle 3-4 (Upstate) soon and I'm excited to start attempting more DSO imaging. Up to now I've been mostly focused on capturing Jupiter and Saturn which are, honestly, challenging as it is.
I've noticed some other funny things, maybe harmless but undesirable.

One example was really really hard to spot. Once I queried GPT 3.5 for a function to do X, and it did pretty well, when I looked closer though, it had wrapped 90% of the code in an unnecessary if statement. I looked at the code an thought something was off until I realized.

My point here is, if that was easy to spot, who knows what else people are missing because even in a simple case, unless you're actually trying to spot issues, you likely won't see them.
I don't necessarily agree with the poster of the tweet as he triggered what appears to be a controversy but wanted to see other opinions from other angles.
I think it boils down to the ability of being able to divide a big problem into smaller parts and understanding in what order you need to takle them. The more you try building big things the better you get at doing it.

After getting into university I decided to build an interpreter[0]. For someone who didn't even have the notion of a parser, it just felt like an unaproachable task. Even though, I sticked to it and the architecture became clear in time. That's another thing, even if you try to build something and miserably fail at it at each iteration, you still get better at it. The feeling of the task being too vast and daunting is just a feeling and knowing there's something on the other side makes it easier to power through it.

Hope to see your database on HN someday! :^)

I think this is the core of what irks me of the movement: it's one thing that their reasoning is often simplistic and arrogantly assumes you can distill the entire world, including its far future, down to some simple formulas - but they are also far too attracted to "repugnant conclusions" than for me to be comfortable.

I find it suspicious how much of their reasoning just happens to justify assholish behaviour and promotes a social darwinist survival-of-the-strongest worldview, all in the name of altruism.

Pay for electricity and actually get it? Luxury!

Here in South Africa the rate is about 0.15 (USD, depending on exchange rate), but they keep turning off the electricity because the state-owned utility cannot make enough of it. Load shedding they euphemistically call it instead of the blackouts it really is. Of course they also complain about loss of revenue because we use and thus pay for less kWh if they keep turning it off.

You need to view matters from the perspective the parasites do to understand the situation. Inefficiencies and waste are good for them because the wasted money is funneled into their own pockets. Controlling large budgets and teams gives them a sense of greater power.

But the fact is, they don't need to horde all this. With a laptop anyone can achieve anything they need with the touch of a button. Minimalism is just more effective in the long run.

They need to realise, the things you 'own', own you.

It's especially important to be efficient when you're acting as a custodian for other people's money and wellbeing.

There's a good reason for that: in English, a trailing e tends to be silent, but also to indicate that the previous vowel is different (long vs. short usually).

So, to an English speaker, "lupe" looks like LOOP, which is different from "lup" which would be LUPP. Those aren't real words of course, so some similar words with this effect might be "flute", "lute", and "glute". "flut" and "lut" aren't words AFAIK (but "flutter" is), but "glut" definitely is, and has the short-u vowel sound as opposed to the long-u that "glute" has.

The pronunciation rules in English aren't very good and are full of exceptions, but speakers are still just trying to apply the rules they know, based on other words they know, to foreign names.
I was downvoted to oblivion for suggesting that was the reason the last couple of years of intel MacBooks had botched thermal solutions. They were really indefensibly bad, but then again: the jump to m1 was enormous.

In my experience bigger companies are more dysfunctional, but they appear less so the higher up in the company you are.

When you're just some low-level worker for a mega corp high-level decisions tend to get passed down with little to no context through several layers of management half of whom are disconnected from the issues you face on the ground, and the other half are disconnected from the decision making at the top.

This does cause some dysfunction, but I agree with you that it's not often not as bad as it seems when you have context of the why decisions are being made.

Not all companies do such a bad job at communication either and flatter organisation structures can help empower the people on the ground to make decisions which might otherwise need the approval of several layers of management. But still, in a large company there's inevitably always going to be some disconnect which will cause some level of dysfunction that you wouldn't get in a small company.
I question the word "required". They, or anyone else releasing an open source product into the world, doesn't owe anyone anything, least of all support. As long as there are enough instructions to run the thing, you are perfectly within your rights to let the community sort out the rest between themselves.

I've mixed feelings after reading this. On one hand I've had the "opportunity" to briefly work for some dysfunctional companies on short term projects and I know exactly what the author is talking about. But after over 2 decades in this line of work I disagree that this is the majority of Fortune 300~500.

Every huge company I worked for had some level of apparent dysfunction that later, once I got to know the history why they did it this way turned out to be the best of the worst options available.

At the same time I had people tell me, "of what a horrible mess and a dumpster fire of crap, are we allowed to throw it all out and do it properly? " when showing them around corporate systems and codebases. Then after eventually we obtain permission to "throw out and do it properly" for some small part of the system it is discovered that "no, the people that did it before us were not idiots, we were just not aware of certain constraints that forced their choices and now are forcing ours". You would have to replace everything... Which never was and never will be possible in a large company that has the same system and apps working since they started developing it on punch cards in 1960s...
Interesting approach but what about mobile users?

I can relate to this comment. The Tao Te Ching had a profound influence on me. Reading it was the first time I engaged on a "spiritual" level with life (I'm a fairly pragmatic and reductionist guy, perhaps to a fault). But this also wore off for me and I returned to being my usual mostly unspiritual self after a couple of years boring my friends trying to tell my friends about the Tao... Without describing it.

I do feel like I have a respect for such things where before I just considered it all manipulative woo or self-delusion. I also think it paved the way to my being able to appreciate Wittgenstein's ideas (the ones I can grasp anyway).

I read through a few different translations of the TTC, two of which had commentaries. Both the text and the translations had somewhat different takes. So it's definitely worth trying a few versions.

Two I recommend: DC Lau's translation and Philip Ivanhoe's.

Why Is HTML Not Getting Updates to Opt Out Content from Model Training
After reading about Nightshade project (this article has the right threads to follow if you want to dig at it or see briefly the results in testing: https://venturebeat.com/ai/meet-nightshade-the-new-tool-allowing-artists-to-poison-ai-models-with-corrupted-training-data/)

Why is HTML not being updated to better protect the IP of individuals - we need something more granular than "Don't scrape me" - it's fine for you to scrape my art content, even go ahead and download my entire soundcloud without paying a dime and go DJ with it - but don't train your models on my art. That's my edge.

As a day trader I understand this well. With a lot of grit, I'm in that fraction of human traders that can beat the market with passed prop challenges to back it up with real data over time.
If AI trains on all of my concepts, there is no way I can thrive, and only a very few will become ultra valuable. That's not the world I want to live in.

"Has no maintainer" means there is no one who has said they have the expertise to be able to render final judgment on a bug report or other issue. "If no active maintainer is listed for a given module, then questionable changes should be discussed on the Core Development Discourse category, while any other issues can and should be decided by any committer." - https://devguide.python.org/core-developers/experts/index.ht...

In practice, what that means is if there is a bug report, like https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/71964 from 2016, then the fix may languish for years as no one in the core team is able to resolve it. You can see several people reported the bug, along with a comment from 2022 that "The cgi module is now deprecated following the acceptance of PEP 594" so will not be fixed.

The fixes I saw likely fall into the un-questionable changes that can be decided by any committer.
Not just women's sports but many other women-only spaces too. The key question is, should men be permitted to ignore women's boundaries and consent if they say they are women? If your answer is yes, then you're likely a misogynist who sees men's desires as more important than the dignity and safety of women and girls.

Big companies tend to have a handful of divisions that generate almost all of the revenue, and then everyone else is a cost centre. As long as the revenue generators outweigh the cost centres, no one really cares broadly about efficiency.

For Facebook the revenue generator is Ads. For Amazon it was initially physical shipping, and later cloud hosting. Outside of those divisions you could burn billions on long shot projects that went nowhere, and nobody really cared...

The vast majority of states have little oversight on homeschooling, some have none whatsoever. There’s a powerful lobby called the Homeschooling Legal Defense Association that led massive deregulation since the 80s.

Well, there's levels to it, right? I got an invite for a senior role at a company that some people here would recognize, and they had problems that sucked but were reasonable. Most of the problems I see don't really have a good reason, and I think people's experience is heavily influenced by career path-dependence.

I started at a trash place that didn't even use version control, so the pathway of jobs through my contacts has been a very slow road to improvement. Similarly, people that start at better places just tend to stay at better places.

Or as a much more experienced friend said to me: "All places are dysfunctional, but the difference between the best and worst I've worked at is indescribable."
Cicero might have a good point, but the curt words saying "Read Cicero" by themselves aren't very helpful.

It's going to take more time commitment than people reading random forum posts will give to do that. It would be better to try summarising some aspect of his ideas (which is of course a task that would demand time from whoever wishes to promote him). That's why I said the comment isn't helpful.

Would you be willing to give the hours+ time commitment if a random stranger said the two words "Read [name]" with no further elaboration or would you ignore it? It would be more helpful in a discussion to bring actual ideas to the table, or else the discussion would consist of no more than reading recommendations.
> The battery in the BMW i3 has held up fairly well.

This is likely because the car limited usage to between 20% and 80% of actual capacity. I verified this by looking at the raw data.

In comparison my new Renault Megane E-tech has 0-100% available. You can limit daily charging to say 80%, but the manual states that if the range goes below 15km the car may shut off at any moment.

On a different note, not all cars have easily replaceable batteries. So labor cost might be quite high, in addition to the new battery. The i3 was decent and I saw someone doing a swap for about the same total cost as replacing an automatic transmission say.

Not sure how my current car will fare, I certainly haven't planned on replacing it after the 8 year warranty expires...

So if I was able to convince the contract manufacturer of LV bags to sell me "real" (but unauthorized) LV bags, I should be able to import them into the US and not have CBP seize them? I don't think trademark law has a "but if it's identical to the real thing" exception.
> Also there was a point when Blackwater boasted that they could deploy a brigade (~3k troops) anywhere in the world, people in the Pentagon figured it out and very quickly killed that org.

That... didn't happen.

Blackwater went through several reorgs, rebranding, and acquisitions, initially starting with at least superficially deemphasizing security in favor of other functions because of “business risk” just after the Nisour Massacre, but (as Constellis Holdings) is still doing the things it did before, notably as part of the Saudi intervention in Yemen.

Probably for the best since the name I came up with as a replacement was much better in the end lol. But you'll probably need to change this to something like "Scribe for ROS" or similar or you'll get a notice to cease and desist eventually. ROS-Mobile almost did before it got discontinued.
