I'm the author of PhotoStructure (which is still a web-based UI, like Immich), but has a strict requirement of not being the "system of record" for any metadata.

I built a prototype for a "curator" plugin API, but complexity kept me from releasing it. Here's the short list of "complexifiers":

1. Hourly/daily rate limits (say, from external API calls)

2. How long to cache results for a given input (say, when a new model is available)

3. Timeouts (to avoid sync processes getting "stuck" waiting for results)

4. How to effectively use those results (face grouping requires an ANN to handle the high-dimension vector embedding, whisper/OCR requires a fulltext index, ...)

It's 4. that's the real doozy at least in my mind. It might just be the case that there are only a handful of archetypes, but daily customer support and getting the Next Build out the door has put this task on the back burner for now.

(If anyone has seen this done nicely in other systems, I'm all ears!)
Isn’t it coming overall from the same people who believe language nuances matter and who push for all sorts of language changes?

(That’s a honest question - I’m not sure, just had a thought I might be seeing an inconsistency. Really, I could be wrong here.)

Yes.

No.

>should criticism be directed as towards no one in particular

No.

Frankly I don't really think these are challenging questions, but I also don't think the answers affect the (un)reasonableness of Musk's comment given the specific words of the thread he was replying to.
I have recently been having to use ethernet plugged directly into the wall because despite reasonable speed test results, I see a ton of packet loss during video calls when going through my router (either wired or wireless)... So it's definitely going strong in this household -.-
I'm talking about last quarter. The growth is done. Everyone is halting EV production and has full lots of brand new EVs collecting dust. They can't sell them.

Tesla is best seller outside China, but they're hitting a ceiling of demand as well, and they can drop prices only so much before they're underwater.

And in China, guess what? Most EVs sold are small urban vehicles. Which I covered in my embarrassing huge argument on faulty grounds. Watch what happens next. Or if you catch up slowly, the final outcomes will be in 2024.
In the new business world of AI? Definitely.
I want Picasa (https://picasa.google.com/) to be the Google Photos replacement. Picasa was awesome. A desktop app, super responsive, able to scroll through hundreds or thousands of photos without effort. It didn't require no damn internet connection. It could sync to PicasaWeb, but it wasn't required. It also did not require a cloud account that could be terminated with no warning or appeal.
Xash3D: An open-source reimplementation of Half-Life

Calling out the ADL’s racism isn’t antisemitic. It’s anti-racist. Here’s a simple test, would you call out racists regardless of their ethnicity? If the answer is yes, it’s not racist. If no, then you are racist. Period.
This is the kind of problem that can solve itself, if enough people adopt a project and depend on it, its maintenance can be organized. It helps if the original author is willing to help with the transition to a community-maintained project, which seems to be the case with Rocket.

He was hiding AGI from the board.
> A: it's happening anyway

This is never a valid defense for doing more of something.
Chairman of the board stepping down too. Some shit went down.
His voice and the actions the company took were pretty strongly in conflict though. I get the impression that it was mostly lip service. Always believe actions, and with Worldcoin being a thing his behavior speaks a lot louder than his words.
Immich uses CLIP for searching

Yes. My property taxes have gone from about $450/mo to about $1,250/mo in 18 years.
IIRC you should be able to download it and then put Steam into offline mode and it won't call home until you flip that toggle again... unless they changed how that works since I last fiddled with it. Might need to play once before flipping toggle off.
Color me skeptical - even if EVs were worse in every way (which clearly isn't true, cheaper to operate and maintain, for example, even if they're not the easiest for long road trips), we might still just have to suck it up and accept that we have to change? Most driving is short trips anyhow, so I tend to think it's just an illusion that everyone needs to be ready for an epic journey at any time - instead of yet another trip to the office or to get groceries. Just rent a diesel for the road trip?
In the Netherlands many insurance companies have stopped offering insurance for ebikes and electric cargo bikes, because the chance of theft is too high (approaching 90% in Amsterdam on certain types according the insurance companies).
For those of us who have long commutes to and from work, VoiceGPT is amazing. I can talk through a problem I've been trying to solve with a tutor who helps me understand it. Meanwhile, the guy in the truck next to me is road raging and about to run over a slow Volkswagen. I prefer my deliberative talks.

I think this is a game changer for students and people in training.
She's voiced her allegations for years. Has something been brought up recently? Is she credible?
Wouldn't be surprised if there were Microsoft motives in the background, possibly to fold OpenAI into the firm wholesale. Noticed a little "searching on Bing" spinner had appeared in my ChatGPT prompt recently.

The NYC subway is run by the MTA, which is a state agency. They aren't included in the city's budget.

Wikipedia tells me that "Cognitive Behavioural Therapy" is a standard OCD treatment.

Maybe someone who is actually familiar with such therapy could look at the suggestions (based on trial and measurement) from pp.240-245 of "The Authoritarians" and comment if there happens to be any overlap?

Firstly; that would be a Federal problem, not something that the City can do anything about. Secondly; even if they were illegal immigrants (which is undetermined at this point; most of them claim asylum and have had no determination made for their case) they would still have had the right to shelter under City law.

No, this passage tells me that the board wants to cover their ass: "he was not consistently candid in his communications with the board [...]. The board no longer has confidence in his ability to continue leading OpenAI."

It's not just a "hey, we don't really agree on x or y so let's part ways". It's more "hey, this guy did something that could get us in jail if we don't cut tie immediately".
His sister had levied allegations of abuse

https://www.themarysue.com/annie-altmans-abuse-allegations-a...
Pretty sure that if that was the only reason, and they had him cornered like this, he'd abandon PanoptiCoin. Nobody, not even he, thinks it is remotely close to the relevance level of OpenAI.
Not great, but also doesn't seem to quite align with the wording in the press release.

The situation is more acute in developed countries where older people outnumber younger people. There is very little likelihood of reform in those places.

This is why the groupon CEO's firing letter remains undefeated

After four and a half intense and wonderful years as CEO of Groupon, I've decided that I'd like to spend more time with my family. Just kidding – I was fired today. If you're wondering why ... you haven't been paying attention.

> We all know what

Genuinely curious, what is it?
But it's free and you didn't really answer the question.

Were you looking for a soapbox to stand on?
> we have one of the largest, wealthiest population of non-working adults (retirees) that has ever existed in the world ever

This is an interesting topic that doesn't seem like it gets a proportional amount of attention. What becomes of those assets as that generation gets too old to live in their own homes or dies? For retirees that have chosen to "age in place" in their oversized homes (i.e. built for 4-5 people, but now holding 2), what becomes of those properties. This is one way the housing "crisis" could sort itself out.
If I had to guess I think it might have something to do with Altman's other company, perhaps misappropriation of resources to prop them up, like using openai services or infrastructure or even GPUs.
>Rocket was created by Sergio Benitez. He is almost exclusively the only contributor to the project. Not because people don't want to contribute to it, but because the author wants to have it as sort of his child's brain.

I've talked to Sergio before in-person and got a completely different take of how he views contributions, but also, apparently he's explicitly trying to democratize Rocket's governance as part of this new stream of updates. I think the 0.5 release is a good sign he's doing his best to maintain his flavor of framework despite time constraints.

>I think that a website or API backend is the first project for many newcomers to Rust. It would be better for them to have first experience with other frameworks such that they are not let down by Rocket as it might cast a bad light at the whole ecosystem.

I guess your experience with it being a let down is contrasted with mine of how the 0.5 release candidates have been great to make web apps with - especially for new comers who want to experience a very ergonomic "secure by default" web framework in a language that makes major promises about safety, but also where encountering new behaviors with the Rust compiler can be an impediment from writing anything in the language.

>Rocket looks tempting because a/ it has a nice website b/ it looks feature complete c/ it is similar to Django/Flask which might make it more familiar d/ other web frameworks don't have particularly appealing documentation.

Perhaps we should spend some time as a community to make a website showing some examples and pros and cons of the various web frameworks. A good example to show newcomers that might help them choose a framework is demonstrating error messaging that some macros in Rocket emit vs a similar error in Axum that wouldn't ever have an error. Or showing them tower middleware crate ecosystem vs the middleware ecosystem in Rocket (or which parts of rocket that don't even need middleware or setup vs Axum) - not by hoping that the developer puts less effort in the project or kills it, which takes the options away from the community.

If I started on a website that does that, would you be willing to provide me some feedback? I'd be happy to take on that burden if there's a lack of a single, good resource for it.
The key issue: There is no I in the AI.
You've got it backwards. There are suburbs because car infrastructure subsidises many of the costs of that choice. Suburbs are a postwar, post-interstate phenomenon.
Is this because of Sam's involvement with WorldCoin?

It's down 12% after the news so far.

This feels related to the ~subscription~ new registrations pause. Not sure how exactly but it cannot be a coincidence…
My tesla model s is about 10 years old now and it's cost of ownership is far lower than any gasoline car I have had. These cars were expensive to buy (but getting cheaper) but are far far far cheaper to own. You can look at the article you are commenting on and see that economists are predicting that total cost of ownership of EVs will be lower than gasoline cars by 2025.
I believe the ADL is not immune from being racist and has arguably engaged in racism, but I also believe that the post Musk was lauding was unreasonable and hateful. They aren't the mutually exclusive opinions you are implying they are.

If that person had made a comment in the same format with the same tone about white people, I would feel the same way.
> This is among the lowest rate of actual ownership in the first world.

I don't know if this is as big a problem as it sounds. I could pay off my mortgage next week if I wanted to, but "renting" money from a bank for 2.6% while getting 5.4% on short-term Treasury bills seems a lot more financially responsible than paying down a mortgage just because it feels good to be debt-free.

Certainly not everyone can do this, and there are lots of people (especially those who are buying now) with interest rates that are higher than what they can safely and predictably make to offset that cost. But just saying "X% of American homeowners carry a mortgage" doesn't tell the whole story.
Candidly, not a very candid post.
It's the article's title, for sure, but it feels misleading to call a reduction in incentives from a successful program (rooftop solar generating 11% of California's power is amazing) a strike against the goals of that program.

LEDs/CCFLs being subsidized until consumers switched over to them (I know the story is more complex than this) made sense too.
HN moderators aren't deleting any comments. (We only do that when the author asks us to, and almost never when the comment has replies.)

I don't particularly disagree, but rather I've viewed the AUR as having value in that you can change build options (for instance enabling/disabling features) that may not exist in pre-existing binary builds.

The distribution aspect of the AUR is useful given the various tooling/helper utilities around it, but I don't see it as more effective than flatpak if you're just using binaries that already exist. While the AUR is a bit more of a direct path, you don't have to worry about system level dependencies changing and breaking the binaries with flatpak (even if that does result in more disk usage as a side-effect).
I was commenting on how this sort of thing is a sausagefest. You didn't need to make it creepy.
Since this comes from a physics context, it's most likely talking about the white rabbit implementation of ptp, which is open source and open hardware:

If you don't want to use any of the machine learning features i.e. CLIP contextual search, facial recognition, and clustering, you can disable them and run on a Pi. Normal operations are very light on load, the hardware requirement is for Machine Learning related tasks, which makes sense I think
No, this is completely different.

Jobs got fired because Apple was on brink of bankruptcy all the time and was selling nothing to no one.

Jobs wasn't the CEO of Apple, Sculley was. This is a much more impactful move.

On top of that OpenAI is literally exploding in popularity and sales, that's not the moment to cut ties with your CEO.

Also Sam Altman has an insanely better and heavier CV today than Jobs had in 1985, former director of YC and often called the "boss of silicon valley".

You don't fire a man like Sam Altman easily, they are hard to come by in the first place. He's a powerful person you don't want to have against for no good reason when winds are blowing in the right direction moreover.

It has to be some scandal, otherwise this is too sudden, and out of nowhere to a guy that led OpenAI in this direction, with success, for years.
I don't think this is it. The allegations aren't brand new and the board says he lied.
Warning at a few hundred MB seems reasonable. A single PowerPoint slide could be 100MB.

But I have 10 GB free, and I still get nagged. Annoying.
> If you recall Elon promised several years back that Tesla cars will have replaceable batteries. Go to a charging station, swap your battery and go. He didn't do it. Why?

Because Elon spouts a lot of bullshit that you shouldn't take seriously? Why do people still feign surprise.

That's not an indictment of EVs as a whole, and in fact none of your arguments are.

Cybertrucks being a failure? Well yeah, but not because it's an EV.

Expensive to buy? When M3s are going for $30K on sale after federal credits?

Expensive to own? I haven't needed a single maintenance other than windshield wipers after 50K miles.
Fractional CEO Elon incoming
There will be more noise, at least in the near term, so people have more "content" to attach ads to and more chances to win the SEO lottery, and people use generative AI to pad out their work to look more impressive.

So, we'll waste tons of resources as presenters say "GenAI, pad out this outline into a 10-page presentation" and people receiving the presentation say "GENAI, summarize this 10-page presentation and give me the main points". Anyone who tries to short-cut this by just sending their outline will be accused of being a shirker.
Sorry to be off topic, but I am curious what he will be doing in the very near future. He has been running OpenAI for many years, and no matter what the reason for his leaving, I think he deserves some serious down time to do a personal refresh.

He is a major investor in a few high profile startups, like Humana’s AI Pin, so either he just wants new challenges, or there is some form of scandal (let’s all hope not), or there are issues on not going full steam ahead in profitability.
Looking forward to seeing Sam Altman continue to fall up in the industry.
Normally you need to have an affairs to get sacked like this.
The German government has launched a new Open Source software project called openDesk, which aims to reduce the country’s dependency on proprietary software vendors and support transparency and interoperability.
Haha yeah they are kicking out the CEO of their most profitable venture because he uses a mac.

In Europe, typically, a collective bargaining agreement is agreed between the company and the unions - and then it applies to all workers, union member or not.

But unions don't have any say in who gets a job. There is no such thing as a "union job".
Even so, I'm sure Satya could get his opinion heard by many of its members if he wanted to.

> Apple's so-called 'ethics' in China whilst they're profiting and benefiting from forced labor

Just like almost every single other company which is making consumer electronics? And I don't think the conditions in Foxconn factories making Apple stuff are below average working conditions wise compare to the rest of China.
great thats a billion dollars left for them after NYC covers the budget shortfall.
Firstly, uBlock doesn’t really talk about its own updates, since all the frequent updates it needs are provided by its filter lists. It’s basically an app store, a little bit like F-Droid. And you’re right, I can find no explicit language that either states or implies any of the things i listed.

But think of it this way. There is a prominent link to their list of releases, <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases>. From what I can tell, the releases vary from a few days apart to maybe a month apart, with the most recent release being yesterday. What would you think if, say, six months from now, there still wasn’t a new release? No bugs fixed? And, when asked about the absence of these things, if the developer’s answer would be “You’re whiny and entitled, I have no legal obligation to do anything, read the license LOL.”? I mean, he’d be technically correct, it would be legal for him to do this. But would it be OK? What I am arguing is that it would not be OK, and that users do have legitimate reasonable expectations of any project that presents itself as being active; i.e. fixing bugs, security holes, and implementing new features. Users are not “entitled” when expecting these things.
I'm pretty sure there'll be another big budget agi company soon...
I dunno the details here, but I work in diligence, where "not candid" is what leads to "the whole deal is off and we're sueing the shit out of you".

Not candid in any kind of investment situation with reps and warranties is a really big deal....
