If the model has big enough context window, yes. If the 100k word book is good enough for you is another story.

GPT-4 turbo has a 128k token context, which might be good enough for your book.

You might also use another strategy: write a summary of what your book is about and the title of each chapter, then pass the summary plus the chapter title to the LLM and it will generate for you. This would allow you to go beyond the 100k word limit.
The balance is what is needed in Social Media, but the balance cannot be provided as there are various influences, wealthy individuals, organizations, foreign governments, domestic governments that try to shift the balance.

We will never have "truth" in media. It is always controlled by people in position of power.

Platforms will always choose to moderate contents themselves, rather than to provide social tools for the users to indicate where the truth lies. Therefore companies will remove thumbs down. It is up for their algorithms to decide what you see, and what is not seen.

They will always prefer to host Oversight boards rather than produce social platforms tools for the users to moderate contents.
I’m all for the shady dealings and real power structures that drive the app stores to be exposed, so I applaud this ruling and that Epic saw this through.

The product person in me does wonder what the experience of using an App Store is going to be like in another few years if we continue down this path. Am I going to be forced out to some slow and clunky checkout experience in my browser every time an app wants money from me? Are the days of being able to manage most of my digital subscriptions from a single screen in the settings of my phone over?

While this ruling was only against Google (and the recent outcome against Apple was different) I don’t know that I love the picture this paints for me as a consumer. I don’t buy the argument that this is going to result in lower prices for me - probably just a worse experience.

I’m sure that Google (and Apple, should a similar fate eventually come their way) will fight this every step of the way, and I can imagine there’s a lot they could do to nudge users to opt for the better experience of using their native payments infrastructure. I don’t know to what extent courts are willing or able to micromanage some of those details but it will be interesting to see it all play out.

Not sure about Copenhagen, but transit terminals are a thing in Europe. There you do not, legally, enter the coubtry, your baggage is transferred to your connecting flight and you don't show your passport to anyone. Besides the airline personal checking your boarding pass and passport to make sure you are on the correct flight and are actually who the ticket says you are.

Weird. Someone at Copenhagen airport will have to answer some rather unpleasant questions about this.

Flattr did this, I saw a few sites with it enabled around when it launched, in 2010 apparently. If i remember you could click a link on an article that had it enabled, which was recorded. Then, weekly/monthly funds were distributed from a pool you had added to the service, to get around the cost of making individual micro payments.

Apparently it's now owned by Adblock Plus and is hooked in to their compensation thing.

Are hypercubes really visualisations of objects from higher dimensions?

Wouldn't it make more sense enrich clouds of 3D points with new attributes that encode the value in the higher dimensions? e.g. 3 spatial dimensions, with the fourth dimension being color. A fifth dimension could then turn the dots into numbers. Then you have the information from 4 or 5 dimensions encoded into 3D space in a way humans can still understand to some degree.
Committed generated code can also be a pain. Now you invite manual changes to the generated code, which is probably a pain to maintain if you also want to maintain and reuse the generation script in parallel.

Steam adds a lot of features to games though over just having a windows install. Setting up multiplayer for indie games before steam was always annoying, with steam it is very easy and gives a uniform way to play with friends for every game I own there. There are many such quality of life things from steam, to me as a user it means I prefer paying more for games in steam than to pay for it without steam.

Seeing as Apple is the largest market, yes it makes sense why the larger monopoly would be breaking the law more.

The way that anti-trust law works is that if you have more market power, like Apple clearly does, then you are even more subject to the law and required to do certain things.

But also, if you disagree, then feel free to sue those other groups.

The funny part is that while VW's bad software has been the main negative review of their otherwise great EVs, the general perception online is "Carplay/Android Auto works great, so who cares?"

I own a VW EV and use Android Auto with it. It's great. I would not have bought the car if it didn't support that. The real miracle is how well Android Auto/Car Play integrate with the car itself - speakers, microphones, steering wheel controls, heads-up display for directions - it all feels like a native experience.
Well, as a consumer, instead of having to switch your entire phone if you don't like the way apps are billed, you'll now be able to switch apps if you don't like how that specific app handles billing.

Some things like Netflix and Amazon were already this way, even on Apple devices.

As a product person myself, I would hope that the net result is that we would be allowed to offer both: that we could have a fast friction free purchase via iOS/GPlay and pay the toll, but present the option to pay us directly if the user wants to support us more, or offer lower prices when the transaction is via a provider that takes 3% instead of 30%. I find that to be much more likely. Friction is a real thing in subscription services, and that isn't changing just because the OS vendors might not be able to force apps to use the platform IAP system anymore.

Just like everyone used C dialects and variants of K&R C, until ISO finally came to be, and compatible C compilers were available outside UNIX, like Small-C and RatC.

Until then it was #ifdef spaghetti soup and plenty of Assembly to make up for the shortcomings of the dialects, but naturally Mr. Kernighan wouldn't write about that part.
Do you have sources for both claims?

I saw no reason not to believe the rape accusations of Hamas - many women came forward with this and it would absolutely fit with all the other things Hamas did on Oct. 7 - how they paraded around Shani Louk and then later killed her.

Unfortunately, rape by Israeli guards of Palestinian captives would also be believable from the reports you hear about treatments of captives.
Fun topic! These days I build everything for myself, then publish and see if someone else is interested (mostly not :-)

First thing I built, when I started doing full-stack stuff: https://pushdata.io
It's a super simple time series data storage. You don't even have to register an account, just do "curl -X POST https://pushdata.io/youremail@yourdomain.com/temperature/47" and you've stored your first value. I use it a lot to log various stats about all the things I've built, like user signups or whatnot.

Then I wanted to create simple crosswords with image clues to help my kids learn to read. That resulted in a crossword generator backend and a simple game: https://puzzlepirate.net

Puzzle pirate is great, but I wanted to print the crosswords on paper also, so I slapped together https://crosswordcomputer.com. The UI is rather ugly (like Pushdata) but you can create pretty cool crosswords for kids with it.

Then I wanted to create more flexible shields.io so I created https://supershields.io - basically a shields.io but with programmable (in Lua) logic for the shields you create. I'm not using it myself anymore though so not maintaining it very well and it seems there is something funny with the Lua execution right now. It is using AWS Lambda servers to run Lua scripts, perhaps they're not firing as they should or something. If someone wants to use it, get in touch and I'll see if I can get the Lua execution operational again :)

I also wanted to backup private photos and videos from household phones to a USB memory on a local storage server (Raspberry Pi) and then have that server automatically back everything to the public cloud but encrypted (as I don't trust public cloud providers to keep my data safe forever). I couldn't find a good solution for this, so I wrote some shell scripts that do the trick: https://github.com/ragnarlonn/savethepictures

My daughter was playing Minecraft too much, on our own server, and I created a small Python program to enforce "screen time" in Minecraft: https://github.com/ragnarlonn/mctimer

I once needed to simulate broken DHCP clients and couldn't find a good tool to do so, so I wrote "dhcptool": https://github.com/ragnarlonn/dhcptool

All of these taught me a lot, especially the later forays into full-stack development after having been pretty much clueless about frontend stuff for a long time (still clueless but at least I can create ugly UIs now).
Meh it’s just some consumer technology, it’s nice but if it’s gone, I’m not gonna to miss it too much.
It’s interesting how you correctly identify that this is a massive play for control by Apple and Google, and yet you still seem to sympathise with their position!

I can completely understand why vehicle manufacturers are so wary. Just look at the history of how Apple, Google, etc companies have behaved when it comes to “partnerships”. Look at the App Store. Look at what Google did to supposedly open source Android.

It begins with some generous offer of allowing access to the UX/platform in exchange for innocent sounding things like control over user data/login. It ends with the platform completely taken over, GM being held to ransom, and no in-house systems or staff left to revert back to their own solution.

Look further back in history to the founding of Israel. None of what you imply Israel is responsible for was a thing back then and yet all their neighbours banded together to destroy it. Most of those neighbours eventually lost interest, and now it‘s pretty much only Hamas and Hezbollah. Why? Because they get weapons and money from Iran, which has made it their goal to destroy Israel. Most Gazans just want to live in peace and prosperity. Without Iranian support, Hamas would be gone, attacks on Israel would mostly stop and everyone could finally look toward a future. The Saudis were finally going to reconcile with Israel which would have been a step in that direction, but Iran is making sure we stay stuck in this perpetual war, as they have every interest to.
> Are the days of being able to manage most of my digital subscriptions from a single screen in the settings of my phone over?

You applaud this ruling yet you fear the outcomes. Don't you think this is dissonant?

Keep in mind the kind of ruthless practices we've seen from Epic Games' store make Google and Apple seem like child's play.

Nothing good will come out of this fragmentation. It makes no sense in the first place to have multiple app stores per one OS. An OS only exists to host apps on the device, and the store exists to host apps in a central repository from where devices copy. Both are part of one service continuum.

The apps target the same APIs and the same OS. I wish we'd see more OS and hardware platforms instead, each with its own store. A healthy market would be 3-5 types of devices with their own OS you can pick from. Alas.
I get that but what does that have to do with whether devs use microtransactions or not in their games? The kids will be subjected to them whether Epic or Google takes the lion’s share.
I don’t use it, but I’m certain it has a quite large user base.

Based on her other associations, I’m gonna wager the “trans women aren’t women” kind of feminist, the “feminism is for white women” kind of feminist, the “pull the ladder up after me” kind of feminist.

* Dropping Java 8 support
A company or a job can't experience or "have" stress. Whatever you mean by "stress" doesn't describe a quality of a job or company or employer.

A person may experience stress working at a particular job, or for a particular company, but the stress comes from the person's reaction to the job. Every person will react differently, of course.

Some companies seem poorly-managed, creating chaos for the employees. Some managers demand grueling hours, impose poor work conditions, create or tolerate hostile environments, etc. that may cause employees to experience stress or dissatisfaction. You may hear about those companies anecdotally, or read about the chaos or the layoffs and lawsuits here on HN. Sites such as Glassdoor may have useful information about the conditions and management style at a prospective job.

I suggest not making the work you do or the company that pays you part of your identity. One way employers cause stress starts with getting employees to identify with the company, calling it a family, imposing rituals and in-group language. That can cause employees to feel shame and guilt when they want to go home on time, not work on weekends, not go on call, take a vacation, even getting sick. If you want to separate personal life from work and stay sane, as you put it, set your boundaries and don't let the job violate them.

You can legally say "this whole code is AGPLv3, based on works by these people under Apache". You cannot be legally obliged to say which parts are Apache and which parts are not.

That makes no sense; that would make releasing the binaries and putting them under copyright illegal too as there is no source code.

Someone can still come and cherry-pick the old Apache code, yes. But you (canonical in this case) don't have to say which parts are which, and as the project goes on and new work is added it will be pretty hard to do.

That's basically what LibreOffice did with OpenOffice.org code...
>Regarding Israel's efforts to minimize civilian casualties, such as evacuations and roof knocks, these measures, while notable, do not always prevent significant civilian harm. The dense population and small geographical size of Gaza, for instance, make it nearly impossible for civilians to find safe refuge during conflicts. Moreover, international law obligates all parties in a conflict to avoid civilian areas for military operations, and this applies to both Israel and Hamas. The use of civilian areas by Hamas for military purposes is indeed condemnable; however, it doesn't justify the scale of response that results in extensive civilian casualties and infrastructure damage.

While I generally agree with the sentiment here, it's one of those where the tradeoff is in Israel's lives, versus those of Palestinians under Hamas rule. We could argue about the ratios here, but at the end of the day, I do believe that it's perfectly reasonable for a country to prioritize it's own losses, over those of an enemy nation's. When it crosses the line is largely a matter of opinion, rather than any rigorous principle.

Of particular note,

> Moreover, international law obligates all parties in a conflict to avoid civilian areas for military operations, and this applies to both Israel and Hamas.

This has a specific carve out for the exact case which you speak of. If the civilian area is used for military operations then, by international law, it's now a permitted target. The reason is obvious: To do otherwise would make civilian areas a shield and encourage further use of them for military use. As long as Hamas continues to use them as such, they will continue to, by international law, be legitimate targets. (there are other catches, and it doesn't mean one man with a gun in a hospital means you can blow the whole thing up.)

As for the bit on morality, that was largely in response to the implication that the moral failings were largely Israel's. In the end, this is war, and there are often few "good guys" in war. But while morality is largely the domain of the victor, the rules are not nearly as directly set. From what I've seen, Israel appears to be far more in line with the rules of war than Hamas. That Hamas has not managed to achieve high civilian kill counts is not for lack of trying, but instead for lack of ability. Their "lower impact" should not be taken as any form of moral high ground.
When you come from a place where in order to get a credit the banks look at your finance, job etc. and based on that they give you one or not, the US system is weird to say the least.
