The way rolling shutter and computation photography works that kind of glitch is exactly the kind that is possible

Not common by any means but plausible

Edit: tried it with my iPhone and it’s definitely tricky to do, if I get a photo that demonstrates this effect I’ll post it publicly. The window of opportunity to take such a photo is extremely tiny

And it would definitely be much easier to photoshop it than to capture it “in camera”
do you think it had to do with earing because of the tinniuts? in this case you are disrespecting many americans who have cancers that are not ear based...
Any decade now people are going to realize how awesome XMPP is and start using it for everything!
Mine has gotten pretty bad it’s constant now. Before hitting the back of skull worked for a bit and listening to YouTube tinnitus scrubber worked but not anymore. Hoping this can be fixed one day.
There are a couple of similar projects - ElectricSQL, cr-sqlite and PowerSync (which I'm working on) all support React Native.
Where would you see that evidence if it was nevere done? Because it can't really be done.

Because the workers themselves don't have power to seize anything. The military is the one with the power to seize stuff come a revolution because they're the ones with a lot of big guns, not the workers. But now the workers themselves become part of the things being seized, to serve the military leadership, not the workers.

Workers get screwed either way.
so i lost a few points because of your comment... why would you think my dad trickd me?
It's not quite shipping the DB to the client, but I like the Supabase/PostgREST approach for replacing everything between the client and SQL server with a single very thin proxy that maps tables and functions to REST calls. Even the auth mechanism is fundamentally just Postgres RLS with signed tokens that you can query against in your RLS policies.
Refreshing to see, especially on this forum! Best of luck.

Does everyone else have a subscription to the Washington post? Could we just have a system where we don’t post pay walled articles?

It seems hacker news community members are okay with posting web archive links (there are none here) in the comments but why are we even playing this game at all? Let’s not post articles without free sources.
I'll throw my hat in the ring: I'm from NYC. It's something how isolated you can feel with so many people around
Do you have an audiologist regularly look at your ears? Obstruction and buildup can make tinnitus worse.

I find I really should wear earplugs way more often than I think. Putting dishes away, shoveling snow, scraping ice, even just running a sink. For everyday wear I cut down cheap foam plugs to ~half length (and reduce the depth of insertion), and I also wash them beforehand/periodically with plant-based soap. This removes additives in the foam which I find can cause skin irritation and reduce breathability.

Hope you get some relief.
Looks like Chrome is digging a hole they'll not get out of.

I run Chrome as little as possible. Sadly, there are a few places where it is the best still.

When my dad found a box full of old floppies in the back of a drawer, I bought a USB floppy drive and was able to backup all the data in them: some of them contained my very first programs written in Turbo Pascal 3.0 and GW-BASIC.

USB floppy drives are quite cheap to buy, and in my case it was totally worth the money!

> Be sure to try the styles as well. Thats actually a seperate input than the prompt for SDXL.

No, its not.

There are two text encoders, but they aren't really “prompt” and “style” inputs.

> and most other UIs dont implement the style prompting.

Most UIs default mode of operation sends the same input to both text encoders, but at least comfy has nodes that support sending separate text to them. OTOH, while there may be some cases where sending different text to the two encoders helps in a predictable way, AFAIK most of the testing people has done has shown that optimal prompt adherence usually comes from sending the same to both.
Showing my age. That dataset begins in 2001. Think about that. What might have happened to drop interest rates? That then fueled years of stupidity to then? Yep, cause a financial collapse which then caused? Yep, the interested rates to fall back down to even lower rates and have largely been kept there.

There’s nothing to glean here. Anyone making a hypothesis off this data needs to stop doing statistics and science.
It's the same struggle language learners have faced for a long time regardless of app or not. I did careful studies of the French grammar, read French books, listened to audio tapes in French, and I still got prononciation wrong often.

I resisted using Duolingo because I knew their speaking feature sucks. But the only reason I need an app rather than books or audio tapes is that I need something to correct my prononciation.
Imagine spraying human decision making at small hard problems with the IO of text, speech, images, video, api calls, etc
Here's a very interesting study about how manual osteopathy on the temporal bones could help the auditory nerve/tinnitus. It's been a huge relief for me.

https://norcaloa.com/CAOT/articles-in-press/CAOT-101018

I've suffered from tinnitus that's gotten worse at times, and for me it definitely feels like there's some sort of nerve that's pinched or damaged because my hearing is totally fine but when certain muscles are tight in the area it gets louder, when I yawn it squeezes something and I get this loud tone, and sometimes it gets worse with pressure or impact. I had a very nasty and loud lower tone but I found physiotherapy around the neck and especially osteopathy around the temporal bone very, very effective in reducing/eliminating that lower tone. Osteopaths will talk about how if the temporal bone is stuck in rotation it can pinch/damage the auditory nerve. I don't fully understand the mechanics but whatever they do WORKS for me in taking away the loudest tone of tinnitus.
Considering the title is already clearly wrong since I can generate many images, on device, even while in airplane mode, I don’t have high hopes for the study.

Are there any decent alternatives for the Chrome Web store? Are there unified extension hubs for chromium/firefox with version history similar to how android has apk websites
Yes, there seem to be really valid security concerns about the current extension interface. Perhaps Google is making the wrong tradeoffs here. I don't know, it's very complicated, but the article is not really engaging with those tradeoffs.
We can keep storing code in text files, that's not the point. Point is, we should not be editing this storage form directly, but rather its slices and projections relevant to the task at hand.
Maybe they struggle with understanding inward facing hyper vigilance vs outward facing hyper vigilance and feel it is too dangerous of a word for a reasonable person to associate with.
There clearly are property rights, since the landowners seem to be reaping the lion's share of the bounty, year after year.

Perhaps they are not property rights that serve the people doing the work, but that's a separate problem.

> I believe strongly that maladaptive behaviours like tantrums require the presence of another caring, supportive person to help establish and nurture positive adaptations. If the individual hasn't learned to manage their emotions safely and constructively, it's unlikely that they'll suddenly figure out better ways of behaving without having it modelled or otherwise shown to them.

Yes.

At those sorts of ages they literally don't know how to manage the emotions they're feeling. Hell, often enough they may be _entirely new emotions_--they don't even know the words to put to them to begin to express them or ask for help.

It is absolutely your job as their parent to teach them this stuff. Teach them what feelings are. Teach them to recognize the feelings. Teach them how to cope with the feelings.

If you don't, who's going to?

Walking away because they're overwhelmed by unfamiliar emotions and haven't learned any coping strategies is just throwing your kid in the deep end of the pool and walking away figuring "eh, they'll either learn to swim or they'll drown. they'll probably learn to swim.".
pathetic tbh
I got tinnitus in one ear after a fall where I hit my face hard on a table. After being careful with loud music my entire life this feels like a bummer. But accidents happen and it could have been worse. I also got some numbness in other parts of my face that slowly got better so I have some hope the tinnitus may improve.
The scenario I’m concerned about is someone thinking a Cybertruck is different from any other vehicle when evaluating risk in any given scenario or situation.

There are plenty of famous examples of people adjusting their tolerance for risk based on false perceptions.

“Oh we took a wrong turn and those kids on the corner have visible pistols but we’ll be fine - I saw a YouTube video where this car took bullets from a machine gun”.

No. You’re going to catch a bullet as much as anyone else would.

"A recent study from Harvard Business School study looked at what happened when OpenAI's GPT-4 was given to 758 employees at Boston Consulting Group (BCG). The researchers found that BCG staff using GPT-4 for consulting tasks were significantly more productive than those without access to the tool."

Now, maybe this survey result tells something about the consulting business and not ChatGPT?
I think that’s just gyms grading soft to be honest.

Most people having a peeep tone tinnitus including myself can experience complete silence for a few seconds (up to 30) by listening to a tone at the specific frequency of their Tinnitus.

For example listen to the following, at a level that it isn't uncomfortable and your Tinnitus might be gone for a short time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNf9nzvnd1k

This is called residual inhibition.
You can Google "tinnitus residual inhibition" and find many papers about it.

Benzodiazepines work also very well in some cases, when taking them I have no Tinnitus at all, but that's ABSOLUTELY NOT a viable long term solution because of the long term negative effects.

I am not sure about this paper, but what I've read and believe the most is that the Tinnitus is caused by neurons in the brain, that have lost nerve input signals from the ear (due to hearing loss, nerve damage etc..), and start to emit parasite signals.

Benzodiazepines reduce the brain activity thus reducing/silencing the tinnitus. Residual inhibition seems to work by stimulating the region where the hearing loss has occurred, the neurons responsible for the Tinnitus all the sudden get stimulated and stop emitting noise signals for a few dozens of seconds then resume. But so far there is still a lot of research to be done and we are decades away from a cure that is SAFE enough. Benzos work but are just not worth it, this is like fighting back pain with opoids.

Until then I think it is best to protect our hearing, you can buy custom made earplugs which are comfortable to wear, last about 5 years and cost around 200 USD. I use them when I am in loud environments like on an air plane, train, at a bar etc...

Also it is best not be in completely silent environment as this is where you will notice the Tinnitus.

When listening to music with headphones it is important to take regular breaks and not to push the volume too high to give your ears some rest.

Edit: Last advice, don't try to listen to your tinnitus, but focus on other noises/sounds, if you are listening to the Tinnitus you are telling your brain that the signal is important, when you should be telling it, that it isn't.
While I like the idea, I've also "fixed" enough mostly working systems over the years to know that if it's not done carefully, this could cause more problems than it fixes.
while it is unfortunate it requires a write, it is useful in some cases. for example, finding old objects in a cache, or today i used it to find out what firmware my kernel is loading by checking atime of /lib/firmware.
This reminded me of the video "Why does Aviation have SO Many UNITS of Measurement?" [0] from "Mentour Now!".

It's generally worth watching since units are an important part of our lives.

This seems like a lame excuse. Surely the USA can up their water plumbing requirements without replacing lead-based paint on other surfaces. Other nations have regulated this for decades now. It's about progress, not perfection.

I use Brave, Safari, Arc and Firefox, basically in that order. I never even installed Chrome once Apple introduced their own chips. Brave has always felt just like Chrome once you turn off their rewards stuff.
Arc is doing some really thoughtful integration of Chat-GPT, including cleaning up tab titles, that is worth paying attention to. I actually look forward to their ~weekly YouTube updates.
Rolling shutter won’t cause this: the readout of the whole frame happens in a fraction of a second, and I don’t see someone moving their arms quickly enough to trigger this kind of glitch. You usually see rolling shutter effects with objects that are moving very fast, like wheels and propellers.
Good point! I'll have a chat with my bro - but thanks for your suggestions - highly appreciate it!
I’ve been working on a small project to get familiar with building Chrome extensions. It makes tweaks to Google Flights to add data like transfer partners, estimated point redemption costs, etc. that can be helpful for folks redeeming credit card or frequent flyer miles. It also makes a bunch of UI enhancements to make the results easier to review.

I have tinnitus. I had brain surgery to remove an acoustic schwannoma. The doctor said that I would lose all hearing in the ear due to the unavoidable damage to the acoustic nerve.

Well, at least that will get rid of the tinnitus, I thought.

No such luck! I still have tinnitus.

As such I think there may be more to tinnitus than undetected nerve damage.

It isn’t clear cut though: I have some hearing in that ear after all (to the surprise of the doctor). But the tinnitus came back (or never went away) before any hearing returned.
I have tinnitus and strangely, I have no real idea when it started, much less what caused it. Maybe it just started softly and got louder. I think it appeared in my early 20s, couldn't swear that it didn't start way before then, and I'm pretty sure it was there when I was about 30. It seems strange somehow that I just don't actually know.
Well, then. Magic indeed!
Best wishes man. I used to have a number of colleges from Ukraine I know Russia is still actively targeting your power grid with those damned drones. They could probably use the help with power systems if you've got any experience in that sub specialty. Regardless, I hope you stay safe.

For others, Medshare is running a fundraiser for Ukraine:
https://www.medshare.org/zukraine/

They provide medical supplies and stuff like backup generators for medical facilities. They were running a match program and my company has a gift match. Last year google matched contributions to UNHCR. I can't pass up a 3x match to a good cause.

There also credit card churning. Though people who do that are certainly know what are they doing and not gonna be diswayed from buying gift cards by anti-scam warnings.
Given that many people leave their plumbing/water system in their homes be just the way it is for decades, it's still wise advice.
Wait, so using large models isn't limited by VRAM anymore?
I'm not doing great at all myself these years, so I know all too well how bad things can get for somebody. I'm able to give some funds (however little I can put together, i.e. $50 CAD) to contribute to what you're doing OP. If you have a place for a donation do let me know. I'm in Montreal and can also do my best to help if there's something local to here.

It's a really cool idea you have there and I wish you the best
Yeah for sure, it would take a freak accident to move your arms so quickly and suddenly and have them end up sharp in the end result.

The closest I’ve been able to achieve in a few minutes with my phone is a blurry vs non blurry image of my hand in the reflection vs in real life. Pretty hard to pull off this kind of double exposure trick when the software isn’t actually intending to take double exposures
> It wouldn’t be such a bad thing if they were engineered in a fault tolerant way, but they aren’t.

There are multiple CAN specs, but fault tolerance is a built-in part of some of them... enough that you can cut a wire entirely and it'll still work. That beats any analog vehicle electrical systems. Although, if it costs a penny more, I'd bet Ford cuts that corner.
Hey, in most cases the application fees are waivable if you write to the application committee explaining that you are in a situation where the fees are a significant barrier.

Cheap, fast, quality. Pick 2.

Which one to pick isn’t as linear as the article portrays and it changes over time. You can’t religiously plant yourself in one corner of the triangle forever.

Low quality will loose users and eventually also profit. Rushed development inevitably degrades quality over time, even if initially a high AWS bill hides this fact. No income and eventually you run out of cash to do any of the other 2.
Considering historical disparities in tree planting and landscaping promulgated by Robert Moses and subsequent officials, this is a great step in the right direction. Community boards have already been pushing for this kind of environmental justice
They do include an interactive map in the article that is much more… whelming. Of interest though, looking at the interactive map we see some of the lucky neighborhoods you mentioned standing seemingly separate from the rest of the network that have the system installed.

Hello,

I'd love to introduce myself. I'm Jay!
I bring in about 8+ years of loving Python with a startup mindset focusing on different domains.
I like the grind with a great team building things that would make us proud!

I have prepped up systems of 50 machines and driven uptime metrics to 99.9% across loads of 3k/sec data intensive API calls on globally available services. There’s some depth of thought to achieving this. I've worked with research-driven teams and bring in a research based thought process to solving scaling/operations.

I'm great at scrum calls, helping drive team clarity on tasks, learning new things on the go, building with people, and solving problems with all hands on deck driving focusing on key aspects.

I enjoy being explicit in code/context/communication!

I find insulting the current hype. AGI? Seriously?
A lossy text compressor with next word prediction and synthesis model build on stolen artists work is not the future.

Meanwhile, there are wars and poverty is rampant.

Yes, LLM's have useful properties. But require fine-tuning and RAG implementation. Intelligence? Common. Let's stop with marketing and move again to be rational and practical.
But the issue remains where your questions have to have easy "retrieval" aspects. You can't ask general questions that a human would have no trouble with. A book report is the example I used because you need to have read the entire book. essentially a book-length context window.
