I think socializing is world changing. So many of the global systemic problems we face are either caused by or exacerbated by a lack of social cohesion.
That's okay, we can both laugh at each other for different things. It doesn't mean that any of those things are untrue, however.
And this entire post is basically a question of "But what about Apple?" When Google licenses out Android they've essentially created an Android marketplace. Apple avoided this problem by not being open.
That pattern makes more sense when you are A. Editing a document, as opposed to filling out an ephemeral form; and B. The document does not auto-save. This pattern is more likely on desktop, which is where you're getting the correlation from. It's unnecessarily complicated when filling out something that appears in a modal like the article is referring to, e.g. a calendar event.
I believe the final solutions for airliners would be using LIDAR to detect airflow in front of the plane based on the particles in the air. There's a few scientific articles about it if you search, and I believe from second hand information that the big manufacturers (airbus and Boeing) are testing prototypes for deployment on next gen airliners.
For now, but in a decade or two that hardware will become cheaper and more widely available. What happens when people can run the equivalent of GPT-4 on a desktop GPU?
i’m guessing you have a problem with signs that say “danger, do not enter” as well
I also run this, and it's pretty worth it, but 40$ discounts the time, and makes it sound like the perfect solution. While it is good, it isn't perfect.
Yeah, our Swift team don't use it. How are you using it? Copilot doesn't seem supported by Xcode. It has the most features on VS Code.

It does an excellent job on Kotlin, especially tests. We find it's most fluent with Python, pretty good with JS and TS, but found several security mistakes on PHP, etc.

For boilerplate, accuracy seems a little higher than human. It wrote 1000 lines of mocks & test code in a day for me. But creatively, it's worse, there's some hallucination.

There's a marked increase in quality and accuracy in GPT-4. GPT-4 is high quality enough that it catches tons of mistakes in code reviews and can debug with a screenshot of a stacktrace. Copilot seems like it's a generation or two out of date.
No, Breaking the Silence is arguing what law should be enforced - not pretending that the Israeli military law doesn’t actually exist.
What I mean is, no one ever said that git was meant to hold bulk assets and resources directly, and so doing so is painting with a hammer, not an insufficient pain brush.

Yes of course they have a different use case. That is just another way to say the same thing.

Just use SponsorBlock, it skips all the filler and also gives you a handy skip to highlight button.
If it’s okay to ask, does Netflix only pay a fixed sum (they have to disclose numbers if there are view-based royalties, right)? Is that normal?
This website has a hit counter and it made me smile. I love retro projects, even if they do make me feel old.
Question: What is the best alternative for VMWare Vsphere?

I am so sick of this subscription game. They will lose me as a customer and anyone who will ask my suggestion in the future for virtualization. Their license upgrade model was already frustrating and now there is not even a year break from the license hell. At least I could get the license and upgrade the hosts for a few years before upgrading to the next version (ie: Vsphere 6 to 7 to 8).

It will be a pain to migrate and restructure but I won't accept subscriptions as the core of my business solution. Broadcom go to hell.
With respect to communication innovation, I think AI Hitler put it best: "we can't rewind we've gone too far."

Here's a link to the relevant historical record: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25GjijODWoI&t=93s

I don't think existing media channels will continue to be an effective way to disseminate information. The noise destroys the usefulness of it. I think people will stop coming to platforms for news and entertainment as they begin to distrust them.

The surveillance prospect however, is frightening.
Which puts pathological liars into a new light, at least for me. They’re compulsively story completing.
Yep, I have a script to yt-dlp then run whisper v3 on it, works very well especially for archiving certain videos and playlists.
>Do we really need all those people in offices? Probably not.

In Bullshit Jobs, Graeber argued that we already didn't need most of those people in offices, pre-AI. They're there as status and power symbols for the higher ups - 'look at the size of my team! i am important! pay me more!' - not to do any actual value-generating work. Modern fiefdoms.
Unfortunately for the general tenor of this thread, you're repeating propaganda which has been widely debunked by Iraqi Jews themselves.

For example: [Avi Shlaims book "Three Worlds"](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62918049-three-worlds)

There has been a longstanding and unsinkable narrative that, frustrated by the refusal of Jewish communities in Arab lands to move to the early Israel, an active campaign of bombings etc was launched by Israel itself, surreptitiously, in order to exarcerbate tensions already caused by 1948.

Of course, the fact that these communities had existed within the Arab world for centuries itself belies the notion that the Arabs wanted to exterminate them "for Allah". As anyone with even a passing knowledge of history can attest to.
Human systems. They are protected by human systems. Human beings are the ones who press the big red button.

We probably do agree. I'm not saying that this tech won't be used by bad actors. I already told my elderly relatives that if they haven't seen someone in person, they shouldn't talk on the phone.

But what I'm talking about is categorically, fundamentally, not the eschaton!
Apple News Plus is exactly what you describe.

The main problem (and reason I cancelled) is that is doesn’t disincentivize clickbait.

If you could curate the homepage to only include feeds of publications you want to pay, then the incentive would be to create a good stream of articles.

As it is, I got sick of clickbait from a few big publications, so their fucking clickbait headlines showed up, but grayed out with a notice that I’d blocked them.

Also, the recommendation system recommends exponentially more clickbait if you click on a few clickbait articles, then it goes into a spiral of garbage.
It’s so stupid because there already is a playbook for being profitable and still giving your product away for free. It’s the free trial. Hey, we want to earn your trust, so here’s a free month of the service. If you like us, great! Here’s the price at the end. Otherwise no hard feelings.

Instead, the playbook now is:

WE ARE FREE. YES, FREE AS IN NOTHINGBURGER DOLLARS. WE ARE BETTER THAN FREE! WE WILL PROMISE YOU ANYTHING YOU WANT! PUT ALL YOUR INFORMATION HERE AND WE PROMISE TO MAKE YOU FAMOUS AND RICH!

lol jk gimme that data. Also you’re locked in/addicted to our platform. Give us your money.
Background shows are common when people need to do an uninteresting task.

It's not even new. They used to hire people to read stories out loud while workers rolled cigars.
This is pretty cool. We need to be putting a lot more resources into space tech TBH. It should ideally be a single digit percentage of the budget/GDP as a starting point. The future of mankind really rest on it.
Google actually tried this... at least twice, I think?

In 2011, they partnered with some publishers to offer "One Pass", a pass-through billing system that also had an option for pay-per-article: https://www.electronicpaymentsinternational.com/news/google-...

Then, separately in 2012 they tried to launch "Google Wallet for content", offering publishers a way to sell individual articles for less than a dollar: https://9to5google.com/guides/peachpit/

I don't think either service ever took off. Probably people were just too cheap :(

I’ve seen videos of those. It’s honestly mind bending.

A shower of something like nuts or cherries halls a few feed past a bright area and the bad ones just magically sort themselves out into a different stream away from the main flow.

I’d love to see one in person.

I think the Brave browser supports this. Give brave $10 then they provide small amounts of money to content providers. This allows money to pool up and avoid the astronomical transaction fees. I'm not sure how well it works in practice.

OP here - we avoid sequences in all but one part of our application due to a dependency. We use [KSUIDs][1] and UUID v4 in various places. This one "gotcha" applies to any sequence, so it's worth calling out as general advice when running a migration like this.

Isn't Apple News Plus just subscription news? That's not really the same as pay-per-article, where readers (not the middleman) can choose which individual articles to pay to read -- kinda like how we have pay-to-read scientific journals, but usually at the $50/article range, not <$1.
Yes! I completely agree.

I’ve been using AdGuard on iOS, and it’s not the quickest experience. It takes about 10 seconds to get a YouTube video to start. But oddly enough, I actually appreciate this.

10 seconds of peace and quiet, vs. 10 seconds of someone shouting at me about a product I don’t need.
> That’s also why it takes 2 days to send money to people, in an era of instant communication.

I always assumed anti-fraud had something to do with it. Give the victims time to notice and the institutions the ability to reverse transactions without loss

Good luck doing it in a corporate environment. One visit from BSA and you will get wrecked. IT departments will take the major blow from this because we are the ones sitting down with CEOs and trying to explain the costs. Now a major cost increase about a subject they can't even comprehend.
Interesting, I could see selling this as a service to local businesses as well as upselling them on lead generation. I have done something similar for other niches in fact, it's a good way to get started and can even grow into a large profitable business.
Why did he do it? I hate having access to things, it's just liability for you. I kept all my company passwords in my company password manager that was linked to my employee email so that if I lost my email access I would lose all passwords to anything company related. Whenever someone texts me a password I delete it after using it.

There are some great documentaries about the NASA team that does safety critical software: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJNNJxC12UM
Modern node names are more marketing labels than a description of any real feature size of the underlying process. We can "have" 500pm anytime we want by simply naming a node appropriately. There aren't any serious roadmaps out to the picoscale, but people have proposed a future Angstrom roadmap beyond 1.4nm. 500pm would be A5, or sometime in the late 2030s.

As an aside, 500pm is just about enough to fit 2 whole silicon atoms, so it's hard to imagine it ever being a real description of a feature size.
Any reason you run Whisper on it when you can pull subtitles via yt-dlp?
too many steps vs $10/month
That's not really the problem.

Suppose there were two cellphone platforms and they were both equally terrible, or equally good. But each one locked the customers out of their own property -- you have to use their app store, their cloud services, you can't install their operating system on anyone else's hardware or vice versa. Mandatory lock-in to all of their other services, competition impaired.

This is not okay just because there are two of them instead of one, because it's what causes there to be two of them instead of dozens. You can't enter the market without replicating the entire vertically integrated conglomerate because someone who makes only hardware, or an operating system, or an app store, can't use it with the existing ones.

It removes consumer choice, and each of the conglomerates could continue extending the stack in either direction until you have to buy your house and car and all of your groceries, appliances and media from the same company as you get your phone.

This is not the same thing as vertical integration. The same company could make a CPU and an app store without having them bound together so that you can't choose one without the other. You could choose to get everything from the same company, but you shouldn't be required to just because that's what the company wants.
Various Apple apps like Apple Store and Music use a tab bar at the bottom, but they're not customizable. Everything I can think of outside of Apple switched over to completely undiscoverable hamburger menus a long time ago.

which kinda sucks, as this requires downloading the entire video before you can watch, so you cannot decide _not_ to watch it quickly (it takes at least the time to download, which, if the video is long, might take a while).
This is such a lame argument to make, because it could apply to an article about anything. Don’t agree with the analysis? It must be paid for by {insert lobby agency}.

Was there anything that was discussed that you disagree with?
I’m not sure it can.

Based on the article it looks like their fuel savings claims are due to not having to avoid turbulence by rerouting around it.

If it could directly impact fuel economy much compared to a plane flying directly through the turbulence I would think they would call that out too.

Still, if you’re operating an airline fuel saving is fuel saving.
FedNow is helping a lot, but adoption takes time. The middlemen's APIs have to adopt it, test it, then the tools that use the APIs have to do their own round of that, then the businesses that use the tools that use the APIs have to design, develop and deploy the new features, then the users of the businesses that use the tools that use the APIs have to adopt those new features, and then you have adoption.

You can see it in action. Plaid for example: https://plaid.com/blog/get-access-to-the-fednow-service-via-...

Why not simply support the creators of the videos that you're accessing for free?
Or how much revenue will be reduced by downtime.
Genuinely curious what you do when a site asks you to turn off your adblocker? PiHole doesn't have an option to whitelist an individual site like an extension does. Do you just leave the site or do you temporarily turn off PiHole?
This doesn't seem that hard to get around, with a bunch of $0.99 games and in-app purchases on mobile stores. iTunes did it too with songs, before Spotify took over. Seems like a simple opportunity for any payment processor middleman to just batch up transactions and run them through the CC processor at the end of the day/week/month. If the middleman doesn't want to, each individual publication can still just tally up your totals and then bill you each month.
Not all videos have subtitles. I do initially run yt-dlp with the extract subtitles parameter, then I check whether those subtitles were downloaded, then if not, I run whisper.
That sounds like a story that could be part one day of Google's version of

In this place up is down. You did good, kid.
Depends on what you see as useful.

I feel like most of the dev (and other) jobs out there are just similar variations on how to extract value from someone. Maybe you write the code for Amazon's website - so what? So people can spend money on stuff they don't really need?

The point is, nobody here can tell you where to find a 'useful' job, or even what that might be to you.
A Bluetooth transmitter would have much better quality and not have to move around the spectrum manually. FM transmitters are a simple technology but in practice are worse than a classic compact cassette adapter.
Believe me, it sometimes prevents people from understanding. Not very common, but I had a couple of cases when I had to re-read a sentence until I finally understood what the author has meant.
Wow. Cog is almost 20 years now. Still cool today. Perhaps we should try to put GPT prompt into the Cog comment these days.
Couldn't you just use the subtitles from youtube directly?

Or are these worse than whisper?
I do not have power to police speech on hacker news, I only have an ability to critique what I found to be a very intentionally demeaning term for a Israel.

I dont think that "Zionist entity" sounds worse than "Zionist Experiment" TBH.

Ask yourself, why not simply call "Zionist Entity" or "Zionist Experiment" Israel?

Its simple - the word "Zionist" has been hijacked by anti-Israel movement to mean "Jewish".

To the rest of us, modern-day Zionism means "Israel has the right to exist"
Wouldn't be surprising.
You need to be able to get the information fast enough to be able to make the control surfaces adjust in time.

The longer the plane, the further between the nose and the leading edge of the wing. So the more time you have.

also aren’t turbulent more likely when you are lower than at final cruise altitude? Wouldn’t the plane be going slower than anyway for fuel savings in the denser air?

Even if it would only work on longer/larger jets it could still be very helpful.

How do you know I don't support them? SponsorBlock is not a replacement for YouTube Premium, as Premium doesn't even have the option to skip parts of the video. If you do want to support them through watching their sponsor segments, then you can white-list sponsor segments but still skip filler, intro, and ending content.

Based on this comment, I don't believe you have used SponsorBlock or know that it has capabilities beyond just what's in the name, simply blocking sponsors. It has much more. When I said "filler," I was speaking about the literal category that SponsorBlock has, content that serves no purpose than to pad the video: https://wiki.sponsor.ajay.app/w/Filler_Tangent/Jokes
The entire article can be summarized into one word: trees.

Anyway, this is the sort of information that you must absolutely consume from a direct source, i.e. Apple documentation and Human Interface Guidelines, because they change a lot and secondary sources can be outdated or flat out wrong at any given point in time. Additionally, your mental model of the UI must correspond with Apple’s implementations of its UI frameworks (if this is targeted at designers, well the problem of design that is detached from engineering is a separate and long discussion, though very real and so widespread as to be the norm).
This is 100% true, but I prefer old money corrupt to new money corrupt. Old money is interested in stability, new money is... not.

To get a strong enough reaction wouldn’t you need very heavy wheels that the airlines would be unlikely to be interested in carrying due to extra fuel use?
I've been really quite enjoying my personal invidious[0] instance. I'm sure there are some added areas of friction, but I can manage my 'subscriptions' all within the invidious instance itself, so I get absolutely minimal exposure to the maximal trash packed into youtube's default front page.

I'm aware that usage of invidious may be short-lived, as Google will likely step on the pipe that invidious feeds off, but I'm enjoying the intervening time.

Separately, this quote from the article is interesting:

"Ads are a vital lifeline for our creators that helps them run and grow their businesses," a Google spokesperson explained

Google is saying that the advertising supports the creators. They're not saying that the advertising (also) supports Youtube's infrastructure.

They will NOT delete your data even if you request a full account deletion, so surely they aren't interested in voluntarily deleting it.

It's all in the fine print. The labs will keep the genetic information as well as at least your DOB and sex for at least 10 years (CLIA requirements), and 23andMe will keep your identifying information (such as your email address) and account deletion request ID for some undefined period of time. Yes, this will remove some links (and birthday paradox works in user's favor), but this is certainly not a full and complete removal.
> It’s ok if the AI says something weird every once in a while

If anything, I think having the occasional 'complete weirdo' interaction would be good training for the real world. Most people never get to practice how to handle the truly strange cases before the first time they have to deal with a customer who wants to return a case of half-eaten chocolate bars.

But if the choice is between two car manufacturers because your work parking, your banks' branch access, your governments' departments driveways, the city halls where a lot of events are organised, and just about anywhere you want to go is designed to allow only cars from these two car manufacturers, then knowing "in advance" is pointless; because there is no real choice.
uBlock Origin is free.
That’s a good question. But someone else in the thread said that this might allow the wings to last longer if you can ensure that the forces on them are lower on average.

It’s certainly going to be easier to replace hydraulic cylinders or something for the control services than the entire wing (which I’m assuming no one does).

So it may still be a net win in maintenance terms.
