Ultimate Guitar has gotten worse over the years. I noticed they're featuring TikTok-like videos on their home page now which gave me a laugh. I switched to Songsterr a while back and it's amazing. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for tabs.

I agree but I think the breakdown is even stronger than that: Nihilism gives you no way to decide what is "better" in the first place.

Is it "forced diversity" if speakers would just rather not speak at a conference that doesn't make an effort to align with their ideals i.e. doesn't attempt to be diverse?
Faking speakers is pretty shitty but at the same time, it is disheartening to acknowledge that in 2023, there are still people who care about the gender or race of speakers.

They did not. Well a little bit with PPA loans, but that was more business targeted.

The main issue was causing inflation, which increased the values of assets, which rich people have the most (real estate, stock, cryptocurrency, luxury cars, etc...).

I think the governments wrong doing was shutting down work for low income earners (restaurants, gyms, etc...). And then trying to help with stimulus checks, but sending it income based rather then if you still had a good paying job. I got a stimulus check but absolutely did not need it. I used mine to book a flight to Texas in 2020 with my family and enjoy a nice week of water parks (we all had covid prior).

If you create sockpuppets on a forum for the purpose of fraudulently establishing a fake identity to sell conference tickets, I don’t think you have an expectation of privacy with respect to server logs that establish that.

Same as if you rob a bodega, you don’t expect privacy rights over the CCTV footage.
That's indeed a drawback of function call syntax compared to method call syntax where the object comes before the name of the method.
Im not trolling here either.

Genuinely wondering who your heroes are?

Could be a case of mismatched focuses. If someone is focused on tech, they might idealize Musk or Jobs. If someone has roots in the financial realm, they might thing Buffet is their hero.

That’s why I’m asking. Is it possible you can’t understand why Munger is a hero to some because you don’t live in that world?

For the record my heroes are Steve Irwin and my Aunt Patty, so it’s also completely subjective and highly contextual.
I ran a workshop a few years back, and some female speakers wrote to me (collectively) to ask that I include more women, along with suggested names. Given that in academia there is already probably pro-female bias in hiring, I think this was bad, and in retrospect I should not have accepted it.
Awesome project. Exactly what I was looking for.

When it produces a set of images for a given prompt, wouldnt it be better if we could remove a set of images from the possible selection ? Does it not work this way? Another idea would be to provide a few different kinds of prompts and based on that select all the images that matter for the given "class".

Some other things that would be good to know:

1. Can we keep adding items to the classifier? and getting newer versions of the classifier with the newly added item ?
2. How to deploy and host this kind of models? Is there any guidelines on how to deploy this in AWS or GCS for production use cases ?
I almost went down your path, but did not have the guts that you had (and probably not the talent either tbh!), so bailed out and chose engineering instead, now music just a "hobby" and I get sad if I think about it too much. So try to take solace in that I guess?

Anyway, we've all been thinking about how disruptive AI will be for our respective disciplines (like ALL disciplines). Coders are using AI to be more productive (e.g. co-pilot), so it seems that musicians and artists need to find a way to build on top of AI too (kinda obvs)...but in your case, given your combination of grit (i.e. willingness to pivot) and presence on hackernews, maybe you can help musicians interface with AI as a service? Like getting chatGPT to write or improve song lyrics. I dunno, just trying to shine some light for you.
It wouldn't surprise me to see Sizovs presented by certain triggered groups as a poor hero who, faced with the necessities of the evil woke culture had to lie.
Definitely is.
You can't call any piece of evidence that happens to not support your theory as being an outlier. And even then the OpenAI saga is probably the most important development in tech in the last 10 years (conservatively).
There is official count of number of civilians murdered by Soviets in 1932-1934 by hunger (Holodomor) - 7 millions as declared by Russian Duma on 02.04.2008.

However, these are adults only, because children deaths are not counted at that time. With school-age children, for which records are stored, number raises to 10.5 million. Number of under school age children died because of artificial hunger in 1932-1934 is still unknown.

I hope, this will help to calculate number of deaths in Iraq.

Maybe you feel like lending them the money so that they don't have to feel like a beggar, and so that you don't have to feel superior to them.

I wouldn't say it's lying, it's more like accepting the risk that you won't get it back.

Would you loan maybe family or friends money for something that would be good for them lets say an education? Or would you support the government doing the same?
Few know how hard it is to organize these things. Getting speakers lined up isn't easy, especially those with any reputation. They hum an haw, provarikating until the last minute. At the same time you have to put money down on venues. It is always desperate until the last minute. So it is no surprise that, faced with pullouts, organizers did something stupid.

Shameless self-promotion for my site Soundslice: https://www.soundslice.com/

Tabs plus sheet music, synced with original source recordings, with the web's best learning/practice features.

Example: https://www.soundslice.com/slices/txqfc/

It's a "BYOM" (bring your own music) situation as opposed to a library like Ultimate Guitar. But it's reasonably easy to import stuff. You can import a Guitar Pro file from Ultimate Guitar, Songsterr or wherever — our MusicXML and GP importers are excellent, seasoned by nearly a decade's worth of development and edge cases.

We've also recently launched a PDF/photo scanner, using machine learning to extract the musical semantics (in case you have some music on paper or in PDF). https://www.soundslice.com/sheet-music-scanner/

We've also got a full-featured notation/tab editor, and lots of musicians use it for transcribing source recordings. https://www.soundslice.com/transcribe/

Also relevant: we've never had ads, we've never taken funding and we've been profitable for years. Sustainable, product-driven and musician-first.

You can still do framebuffer pixel access pretty fast if you want to, the main issue is just that the average framebuffer today has exponentially more pixels.
Where should you put them?

They have to be somewhere the app can read them, which means if the app can be persuaded to reveal them they are readable.

You probably should have extra restrictions on how those credentials are used (e.g. your database server should only accept connections from known IPs) or minimise the number (e.g. with a small install run the database and app on the same machine and accept only local connections).

Hmm, there's a LOT of inaccuracies between the gospels and trusted historical documents - the bottom section of rationalwiki's Gospel page [0] has some examples - though these are more historical than geographical.

I was probably thinking of the author of Mark who had his Jesus doing the roundabout trip via Sidon towards the Sea of Galilee, or the same author having Jesus stepping out of his boat and into a region that is actually 45km from the shore [1].

With regards Hebrew phrasing - I believe the author of Matthew was almost definitely Jewish, not sure on the authors of Mark (who I think was writing for a non-Jewish audience) or Luke. So they were writing in common Greek, but almost definitely were either Jewish, or spoke Hebrew, and/or were well versed in Jewish lore.

Given the earliest copies we have date from a couple of hundred years after the alleged events, and would have been transcribed numerous times by then, we can't confidently read too much into the phrasing nuances, can we?

> I hope, this will help to calculate number of deaths in Iraq.

It won't and there is not reason to think it will. It was a completely different situation. So keep your hopes to yourself.
That’s a stupid comparison because the USSR intentionally shot down a plane without trying to contact it and then didn’t cooperate at all on search efforts.

Additionally, the pilot positively identified it was a passenger jet due to the double decker windows but shot anyway because they were shooting down “spy planes”, not anything that was an actual threat.

This is in contrast to the US incident where they tried to contact the plane on 10 different frequencies (3 civil aviation) and were operating under the understanding the plane was a fighter carrying missiles.

There is obviously going to be some media bias, but equivocating these two events is terrible from a “moral outrage” perspective.
In a way, yes.

I worked in a video startup thing and watching the app fail after people sunk like 30 mins into using it... Oh man that was cringe.

The videos were recorded because they were legal/financial related and also autotranscripted for text search. I would watch them to trace how the problem occured (I know there are many ways to log).

I was the only developer so it was my fault ha. The app had so many parts and I just used an E2E test to make sure everything generally worked. It's cool Chrome has a fake video feed (spinning green circle/beeping).
I understand why people want to talk at conference that have a diverse array of speakers. However, the fact there is an extreme shortage of a specific gender shouldn't really fall on conference organisers. One conference that was blasted for only having one or two women speakers was organised by a women who pointed out that every women who applied got to speak. It's got to the point from what I've noticed from conference organisers talking on Twitter/X in the past the only way they can get women speakers in a decent amount is for them to approach women who don't give talks and invite them to talk. That is a bit worrying since anyone who has given a talk will know, your first time is completely terrible. So conference organisers are sometimes putting on a lower quality conference to tick boxes.
That can be solved by reading it after reading the book instead of before.

At least one extremely typical problem on Netflix and basically every other streaming service is that the episode thumbnails (which I usually have to go take a look at just to find out how many episodes there are) will ruin any cliffhangers. If a character's survival seems uncertain, the uncertainty will be lessened quite a bit by seeing their face in the thumbnail of a subsequent episode.

Yes, that would be up for debate if the US were in an active war with China.
My suggestion to enhance diversity among conference presenters: each top presenter could bring a “plus one” from an underrepresented group to co-present. Alternatively, they could opt to forfeit their spot and locate someone in their professional network who can represent both a minority group and, if possible, deliver the original presentation.
It's just a matter of internalizing the "intent" of ~~. And then suddenly the code is "clean" again. Just like `!!` is a socially acceptable way of casting to bool.
From the article, just in case you're really taking the organizer's story at face value:

> Orosz alleged that DevTernity's addition of Boyko to the lineup was "not a one-off." He posted what he said is evidence from past years of more fake speakers that were advertised at both DevTernity and other events organized by Sizovs, and 404 Media also claims that a hugely popular female tech influencer Instagram account called Coding Unicorn may have been secretly managed by Sizovs.

Do you really think his story holds up if he's been running a catfishing account for five years?

In 2023 people care about gender and race EVERYWHERE. No matter where I walk in there is virtue signaling operating at the highest possible level. Live ads, TV ads, everywhere online, the bar, church, my friends house, my enemies house, microcontroller manuals, etc... I wish they tone it down, perhaps more conferences will stop faking female speakers.

I wonder when a tesla will show up in a courtroom with a situation like this.

I'm not talking about autopilot.

I'm talking about the continuous (past ridiculous) removal of physical controls from their vehicles.

For example, the original model S/X had dedicated controls for lots of functions - turn signals, gear shift, wipers, autopilot, steering wheel tilt, etc. On the steering wheel, there were two buttons and a scrollwheel on each side of the steering wheel. Press the center of the steering wheel for the horn. The door had mirror adjustment and windows + lock

Unfortunately a few critical controls were on the touchscreen - defrost front and back were big ones, but all the climate controls, and other nonsense too - all pretty much hidden with multiple taps, or small targets or both.

not all of this is bad - putting lots of detailed but non-critical settings like miles vs km are the perfect thing to have on a touchscreen.

but it needed more dedicated controls.

When the Model 3 came out, it started removing controls. There are two stalks, the turn signal also sort of controls headlights and wipers, the shifter is overloaded with autopilot.
It has two scrollwheels without buttons, you have to push them left and right.

all other controls are on the touchscreen.

It really needs dedicated controls for important things.

And then the updated model S/X came out. wow.

there are NO stalks. turn signals are touch areas on the steering wheel. so are high beams, horn, wipers. the scroll wheels do different things at different times.

shifter? nope - it guesses what direction you want to go. many more things involve
the touchscreen, like going into park. (there is also a touch drive selector in the center console, but you have to look down and touch it to wake, then to select)

Just a mess. It makes you a worse driver.
Maybe my expectations are very very low at this point. But I thought it was ok.
If you assume that you are out to break even, and not to try to reach another objective.

If it's about putting someone through education, then maybe it isn't about immediate short term financial gain.

Obviously you are correct that someone trying to make profit by lending will need to charge more money than they lend in a way or another.

My point is that if you have people out to gain profit from lending people money, they would wan't people to want things that they don't necessarily need.
I had a look around for this recently discovered book, but can't find references -- can you point me towards some please, it'd be fascinating to read the contents / context.
"Attracted by" seems disingenuous. More likely, top speakers (including male) want to know that the conference(s) they talk at put efforts into diversity. The same might also go for attendees.
I wasn't aware Apple had partnered with Goldamn Sachs from the first place - weird that it did not work considering both are titans in their respective industries.

I'm not in the industry (obvi lol) so would appreciate any enlightenment on this. :)

> I guess the confusion here is between the company being competitive -- as in making money -- and having products that are competitive in the marketplace

This is almost certainly going to boil down to being the same in the end.

If your company/brand is not competitive, you won't be able to sustain competitiveness in sales long term. Unless you are a rather novel growth company who are able to get enough investments to compensate for the non-existing profits.
