I recently found ytdl-sub which is basically a metadata wrapper around yt-dlp to help you save videos in a format library software like Plex etc supports. Rather than having some horribly named videos with metadata files just taking up space.

I figured no one in the ai space today is going for agi because we just don’t have those models. Companies don’t do novel work. They find existing novel work that has known outcomes to invest in and iterate upon. There’s still a ton of value in present day ai. Compare Siri to chatgpt and its night and day how much better chatgpt is for most people’s basic queries and tasks. That is valuable.

The MOVEit vulnerability was covered everywhere all at once.

So it didn't matter what you were subscribed to as long as that was more than zero things. The ongoing miss everywhere is less about detection or awareness than about response.

Problem is there's lots of these across old back office I.T. stuff all the time, so much noise, and MOVEit is not a "top of mind" tech even though every legacy company uses it or a competitor to exchange files because they haven't heard of Box. So they didn't realize they use MOVEit and didn't think to dig in.

That's the actual issue: not knowing what your firm runs on.
If practical, I am a strong believer and advocate for having an API first, and the CLI/Frontend using said API under the premise that if someone has a better/ubique use for the data, they can use the API to get at it.

This, of course, hand-waves a lot of presuppositions and the like, and so cannot be universal, but it is a notion I have.
I don't wholly disagree with your conclusion, but it's worth considering some context.

Direct3D versions 1 – 9 were indeed released at a rapid pace, more than one per year on average. However, it took a whole five years before D3D9 was superseded by D3D10, and subsequent releases have also been relatively slow.

Direct3D 12 is eight years old, even older than Vulkan. However, it still feels to me like a "new" API, I think because even now, many games still use DirectX 11.

I'm not sure why this is. Probably some combination of the flattening of the technology curve (hardware used to change more each year than they do today), and the fact that once a technology is more complex, it takes more time to change it, and to adopt those changes. And also, legacy compatibility becomes a concern: in 1995, we didn't have multiple decades of existing code, libraries, tooling, and complete consumer software to migrate and support.
Yeah this is the dream for ChatGPT. Someone with enthusiasm, some knowledge, and tons of free time.
> Yeah, humans find a way to mess up. Lots of things are in theory perfectly safe, and yet end up playing the lead role in a disaster.

Sure. This is part of how we learn. We could do better in many aspects, but in general, stumbling on the boundaries is how you expand them.

(Not to mention, "nature" / "god" is 100% growth by mistakes and disasters. Evolution means continuously throwing random mutations at a wall in hopes some will stick. We can't possibly do worse than nature.)

Also, "disaster" is quite a misleading term here...

> Deepwater Horizon and Fukushima were both caused by a corporation cutting costs on safety measures.

... neither of those were disasters in terms of loss of life[0]. All of those were disasters in terms of unnecessary destruction, but they don't prove oil rigs or nuclear energy are fundamentally bad ideas. They only prove corporate greed (in the former case) and paranoia (in the latter case) are problems.

> That is the thing humans always find a way to do.

Among many other things, including clean victories with no loss of life or ecological damage.

[0] - Hydroelectric plants are disasters in terms of loss of life, if you want to look at specific failures. Solar PVs are a disaster, if you know how to add numbers. Coal power plants are a disaster, if you know how to integrate.

> Krita and Gimp's biggest issue is that most of the tools are implemented in a non intuitive way. Everything is a disorganized mess. And since PS doesn't run under linux, this gets on my nerves.

Do you mean non intuitive or just not the same as PS. 99% of complaints I see about GUIs (most commonly OSS ones, because people are less likely to criticise choices where they invested money) are that they do not function like another piece of software.

> For example in Krita you can't resize a crop rectangle with the mouse that holds its aspect ratio... WHYYY? And why does the crop tool forgets the previous size values? Little things like these show that the creators NEVER EVER use their own fucking program.

Are you sure? IIRC you just hold down the ctrl key while dragging to preserve aspect. Do I remember wrong?

It asks for race then outputs stereotypical names for that race.
It's not a conspiracy of the ruling class that housing has gotten more expensive. It's due to regulatory restrictions on housing and new homeowners being able to afford high prices through locked in low interest mortgages. The regulations are there because NIMBYs are against building, and homeowners want their property value to rise over the course of their lifetimes to fund their retirement.
What restrictive and how? Whole cluster orchestrators have been built with go (k8s, nomad), whole databases have been built with go (cockroachhDB), whole authentication systems have been built with go (zitadel, authelia), whole web servers have been built with go (Caddy, Traefik), whole DNS servers have been built with go (CoreDNS), whole key value stores have been built with go (etcd), some encryption has been built with go (age) so how it is restrictive and why didn't it restrict all those use cases?

Not to mention, if you every spawned a container, there are 99.9% chances that somewhere go was involved along the way. There are other run times around (rust comes to mind) but none is production ready.

Point is - restrictive should have restricted. It hasn't

Minimalist isn't restrictive.

EDIT: Added docker and restrictive not the same as minimal.
Whose poor decision is that? The banks created those products, the banks profit from them massively, and the banks receive the socialized bailout using our money.

How exactly is being approved for a loan to buy a first home the fault of the purchaser?

We can shop in any grocery store trusting that the products are safe to consume. Meanwhile, banks are allowed to legally sell financial poison?

Sure, compare rates, terms, insurance, etc. But financial time bombs like you describe should be illegal. The banks should suffer the consequences of their greed. And the working class should not be left homeless as a consequence.
In terms of look & feel, sure Mac OS wins over all other options, but in terms of functionality... its very debatable.
It resolves for me but shows a captcha loop as others said, strangely the captcha page I'm getting seems to be some mockup of the Cloudflare one, using reCAPTCHA which Cloudflare publicly spoke about switching from.

Seems to be doing something odd, code of the page includes some XmlHttpRequest to a blog site with randomized query string (see end of https://pastebin.com/W21Au8RK), along with some fingerprint library (though commented out)

That blog site loads very slow for me if I go there manually - maybe some kind of DoS being directed to it?

Seen this same faux-cloudflare page used on btdig.com too, with the same strange XmlHttpRequest & fingerprint code, pretty weird.

> Fires are a part of nature. It's a hubris of people to think that forests are static.

Going off on a little bit of a philosophical tangent here, but I think a problem a lot of people have is the deeper implications of what accepting this idea might lead us to conclude about other parts of life.

If periodic death and destruction are critical part of maintaining a healthy ecosystem in forests, then it stands to reason that the same might be true for humans. What if attempts to extend our lives, keep people with debilitating illness alive, or reduce warfare and violence are ultimately analogous to controlling and stopping all fire in a forest that needs it to stay healthy and fertile. And as a result, society accumulates more and more kindling over the decades, setting the stage for a devastating wildfire at some unknown point in the future that's orders of magnitude more destructive than it needed to be.
Thanks. This is why I brought up Texas. Only the schools funding are from a pool of property taxes due to the ‘Robin Hood plan’ from the 90s. Local roads are country or city maintained from taxes. And the state roads are from state taxes. It’s all logically laid out.

It's some left, some right. I just had a similar thing with a colleague - you know, they had winds exceeding a hundred kilometers an hour down there, that happens like once every few years down there! Except, like, up here in northern germany, that's fairly common during autumn.

But you kind of learn what you have to do, and what you don't want to do. Over the last weekend, we had similar winds and over the evening we heard some loud crashing, popping and overall noise. You kinda don't want to go out near trees with those winds as branches can fall - but at the same time, the wind might have blown over trees onto the roads and if some late night driver hammers into those... it'll be inconvenient for everyone, at least. We ended up meeting like 3 neighbours on the road checking out if the road is clear and had a good laugh with them.

Later on we figured out someone had launched some fireworks... dang guys.
Awesome and amazing.
Nvidia, Intel claim new LLM training speed records in new MLPerf 3.1 benchmark
Seems like a good idea, but from the article it sounds like a lot of the difference between Maine and his earlier prisons was the culture that existed amongst the prisoners themselves. Obviously prison officials can try to influence this (indeed, it sounds like the authors transfer to Maine was an attempt to do that), but it seems like the kind of thing that's hard to do with just, like, correspondence college degree programs and the like.
But it's also a huge payload to surface, in one piece.

As for proportionality, it's up to Starship Isp - which isn't hydrogen, but rather good in comparison with kerosene (well... some Russian vacuum kerosene engines are quite good by Isp...) - and construction mass ratio, which, usually favoring large stages, is rather good for Starship. So, for those 8-12 refueling launches you get payload on the surface of the Moon which dwarfs the one sent by Saturn-Vs, by an order of magnitude or quite likely more. And - important part - all of that is much cheaper, because the main thing being expended is fuel, not rocket stage hardware.
This looks like a fine toy for children who are old enough to type their own prompts and thus well past the basic language acquisition stage where they’re still repeating a lot of what they hear, but I’m absolutely not going to use it to “write” stories for my three year old, and would advise other parents of preschoolers to not use it for anything beyond idea generation - kids that age need to be exposed to their native language as humans speak and write it. 15 minutes of being read the output of a well-prompted LLM is probably better than 15 minutes watching whatever YouTube Kids just threw their way, but it’s 15 minutes not being read a good book.

I would be angry if my child’s preschool was using it to generate stories to read to them instead of taking the trouble to find appropriate books.

There are already more good children’s books in the world than I’d ever have time to read to my child.

What would be amazing: something that took a prompt, then gave you a list of a few extant books that resemble the prompt in some way.
It asks for language only, unless we're talking about a different website.
As sibling comment explains, this is a natural outcome.

Interviews are a poor proxy for predicting on-the-job performance. The manager is disproportionately affected by poor performance of an employee. So, they try to minimize it. To do that, they try to get signals outside of the traditional interviews. And one such extra signal is reputation. Seeking candidates with high reputation leads to developers with open source contributions getting hired, but also those from the manager’s personal network get hired too.

This effect is not limited to immigrant managers.

> the problem is that the vast majority of Linux users are blind to aesthetics and design

I'm not blind to it, but it certainly comes way down on the list compared to other things, like actually working.

As an example, my SO recently bought a new egg timer. She picked it solely based on it looking good. Turns out it's completely useless because you can barely hear it even if it's right in front of you.

Sure, if I'm buying something purely decorative, like a statue a painting, then aesthetics is all I'm going for. But for things I have to use, the thing has to do its job above anything else.

This is something a lot of designers seems to miss. Just look at Windows 11 when it launched, and the completely idiotic decision to force icons to group without text. Sure it looks less cluttered, but it's just like the egg timer, completely useless.
I’m surprised you are able to get a whole script working as expected out of it. I’ve tried using chatgpt just for lines of code alone and its always coming up with a solution thats, I guess you could say is far to “creative” to be useful and often doesn’t end up doing what I expect of it when I go to test what its given me.

The iron ore train to Choum was already a popular staple of any backpacking trip in Mauritania when I went in the early millennium. One thing often missing from descriptions, however, is how incredibly filthy the cars are with iron-ore dust, even on the trip back east after the ore was delivered to the coast. While I was still in Western Sahara, I learned from another hitchhiker coming north that I should buy some plastic sheeting as used in construction, and hermetically wrap my backpack in that. I am happy that I did.

That shouldn't be news.

Other than the CanMV-K230 (Kendryte K230, single 1.6 GHz C908 core implementing RVV) which just started shipping in the last two weeks, every RISC-V board with RVV has either C906 or C910 cores which implement draft 0.7.1.

Those CPU cores were announced in mid 2019 (when RVV 0.7.1 was the current draft) and boards using them start arriving in mid to late 2021.

RVV 1.0 boards will start arriving in force next year, probably starting with the StarFive JH8110 SoC, and (apparently, though I'm not sure I believe it) an update of the SG2042 in the Pioneer, and also the 16 core (but faster cores) SG2380.

> Do you happen to have the name of the gcc branch

The branch has been deleted from the official repo. I have a snapshot on my github:

https://github.com/brucehoult/riscv-gnu-toolchain

Note that it is primarily binutils which understands RVV 0.7.1. GCC understands it only to the extent of accepting "v" in "-march" and passing the right flags to the assembler. This enables using the gcc driver to build .s files and inline RVV asm in C. There is no support for RVV intrinsic functions or auto-vectorisation.

It's also a somewhat old gcc. I use it to build .o files from assembly language, and then link them with C compiled by a newer gcc or llvm. Or not, most of the time gcc 9 is fine.

THead have RVV 0.7.1 support in newer gcc, but I haven't been tracking that closely.

>This idea that AI "does things" in a vacuum does not make sense to me and I don't understand why people assume it's the end goal.

It's the end goal for capitalism. Consider Jeffrey Katzenberg's recently stated expectation that AI should make it possible to eliminate 90% of artist jobs in animated films - of course he doesn't expect to make 90% less profits in the bargain. Every industry looking at AI is doing so primarily to be able to eliminate jobs, which entails having AI doing as much as possible without human intervention.
I visited several of these things in Yazd. Super fascinating technology (and the city in general too).
Yeah this is an anonymous forum (which inherently requires a false persona) so it literally can’t be personal.

BUT my point is that a common trope here is laundering bad behavior through quotes and revered historical figures - it’s something people often pick up when doing forensics in their youth.

I’m fine being told I’m small minded (we all are, significantly more than we’d like to believe), but it feels weird to have it happen on here without people supporting the argument. For example, “How far do you extend the demand for consistency RC_ITR - should we allow the government to install cameras on public land facing our homes? in that case they’re simply capturing photons that exist in public areas.”

That at least would have made me look foolish in a way that requires critical thinking.

But there was plenty of serious alternative languages running on the JVM? Scala, Kotlin, Clojure. All of which have more adoption than F#.
Universal UI search is great, and at this point it should be present in all but the simplest applications. I first saw it introduced in Google Docs, and it's precisely for things you suspect exist, but it's not even remotely clear which menu, submenu, or dialog it's in. (Apple OS Settings is another great example of it.)

E.g., you want to apply a hanging indent in Docs? Just type "hanging" into the menu search, and it shows "Indentation options". It's smart enough to know that hanging indentation is an option within the dialog that shows up there. And the menu search seems to have a large range of synonyms, so typing "picture" brings up lots of "insert image" choices.

But it bothers me that even in Docs, almost nobody knows about menu search because it's hidden under the "Help" menu, rather than being a nice prominent rounded search box in the upper-right corner like you'd expect.

Menus are great for discoverability (so do not get rid of them), but frequently you know what an application can or cannot do (e.g. you assume a word processor can do hanging indents or watermarks), but you don't know where exactly it lurks in the menus or which tab of the settings dialog, and don't want to waste two minutes hunting for it.

It's time for a universal search box to exist in every major desktop application. Apple and Microsoft really need to take the lead here to provide standard API's and UX components for this, and it saddens me that they haven't, and continue to show no signs of interest.
I just checkout emergentminds, and subsequently bookmarked it. I like this guys UI/UX and concept. Thanks for sharing.
"... might I suggest interring trimmed brush deep enough to not burn but shallow enough ..."

Your comment is ill-received so far in this discussion but I actually think this is a reasonable line of thought.

It is incredibly energy intensive and time-consuming to trim tens of acres of brush and then, on top of that, it is even more energy intensive to dig holes and bury it.

And so that is why your idea is typically implemented with goats.

I don't think it is nearly as effective as a wildfire but it approaches the outcome you're describing and is much, much better than nothing.

I will also point out that the carbon calculus that we are all obliged to consider is very complicated and very often produces results counter to what we thought was "the right thing to do".

Specifically: raising 200 goats, trucking them around from place to place, the human logistics (and their vehicles and food and supplies) and the cradle-to-grave carbon expenses of every piece of this activity ... it's not obvious that that is smaller than the released carbon of 10 acres of spindly brush.
