I wonder if this is something NewPipe would add in themselves. Would rather use the official version than a fork, if possible.

Edit: as soon as I posted that I read more than the first line of the readme and saw this link to the NewPipe blog - https://newpipe.net/blog/pinned/newpipe-and-online-advertisi...
The first part of the transcript was "Hoooow aaarrrreeee youuu dooooing? IIIIII'mmmm aaaaa sciiiientiiiist." :-p
This and books like Code give me such deep respect for the people who originally figured these things out.
"They almost always follow some sort of structure where the actual answer to your question is all the way at the bottom of the page."

You have to scroll past the adverts - that's why they exist. These sites are generated from templates.
Exhibiting program that terminates in polynomial time for NP problem isn't sufficient to prove P==NP. You also need to actually prove the function terminates in polynomial time.

And I could easily imagine that the general problem "does program P(X) terminate in time less than f(X)" is equivalent to the halting problem but in any case it's not at all guaranteed you could create such a proof.
Complaining about porn (mostly gay/trans/furry stuff, although even the straight kind is NOT something I want on my phone when idly scrolling on a bus or a train in public, or ever really) routinely ending in the default timeline, which is apparently a capital offense threatening the livelihood of sex workers and furry "artists".
I think you missed the boat; if you have no high-falutin credentials you will be considered a bandwagon hopper chasing a gold rush, just like all the CRUD app hustlers creating a GPT wrapper.

Oh, ok, that's at least more reasonable. Thanks for clarifying. (and for using such a license)

Not really unclear, now that I look closer, I just saw the annual rate and hadn't actually clicked through to the license/pricing details and assumed that to mean a typical SaaS subscription model. (it's cool and all, but not a fit for me based on the direction you're going.)
The only thing green about hydrogen is greenwashing.
My issue with Tauri is that it used WebKitGtk2 on Linux. Which is pretty poor from a performance perspective and missing feature support compared to WebKit on MacOS or Webview2 on Windows.
I wrote a small Ruby TUI which works like this called Rodo (Ruby Todos). Pressing CTRL+t will get you a new Todo list (it's just markdown) at the top of a file.

It isn’t that I don’t like the nags. I don’t want the part of the internet that needs the nags to get in the way of my view of the good part.
By that logic, we shouldn't have many opiate deaths because they are currently controlled.
Whenever I revisit Threads, it feels like I'm in the tourist trap of social networks. Celebrities and brands are pushed into my feed, posting vacuous engagement traps.

I felt like I had discoverability issues with Mastodon, and the culture I kept running into there was abrasive. It's all around much better now than it was years ago, and I do seem to get more engagement from strangers than on any of the other networks, but I struggled to stay interested.

Bluesky reminded me of the kind of slower organic growth that you'd typically find in earlier internet communities. The absence of videos and GIFs is, for me, an enormous positive point that I know will eventually give way to popular demand. I like that it's more text-and-images focused, and it seems to be in my sweet spot in terms of... most of what I see feel like thoughtful posts and replies, and not people nakedly building their personal brand.

None of them are going to have the same social cachet as Twitter. It's pretty incredible to see someone spend billions of dollars to completely squander an ecosystem an internationally recognizable brand like that. A fairly unique resource, obliterated by a man-baby with absolutely no concept of the value of the people on the platform he bought.

You can post GIFs but animated GIFs don’t work. They get converted at upload.
You're somewhat right. However, I would hesitate to call any website an app. And there certainly is a difference. For one thing I would say an app must be it's own program, even if it just uses Electron or similar.

the program isn't the proof. you have to prove that the program always gives the correct answer, and works inside some time bound. what if, say, it generates the Collatz sequence as a subroutine? good luck proving that the program is polynomial when we can't even prove that sequence always converges.
If Leonardo was alive today, he’d be sketching a Dyson sphere with multiple layers and a habitat in between, or something equally far ahead of where we are today. He was a lot of things, but in the technology sphere I’d describe him as a visionary first, a builder second.
Now all I understand is that he made an educated guess. ;-)
Alternatively, there's a ready market for bags that are also Faraday cages.
They are not at all meaningfully controlled. There are drive-thru markets for this stuff with people doing traffic control in Chicago, and presumably in every other major market.
Reminds me of the classic apocryphal early ML story of the enemy tank detector that was 100% accurate at identifying camouflaged tanks… so long as tanks and sunny weather were perfectly correlated in the input data, just as they were in the training data.
A layman question:

If Faraday cage holes are smaller than the gamma ray wavelength, does it protect against gamma rays? Or is a thick lead wall needed for M-Disc protection? Is it even possible to construct such small cage holes?

gamma rays = electromagnetic waves

Preserving an M-Disc against a nuclear blast seems futile, as the high temperatures can turn even stone into dust.
Is there even a practical way to engineer survival in a nuclear blast? (Any physicists? Engineers?)

Here's a guide on making a Faraday cage, but can it also protect against gamma rays?

How do you know that? We can't eliminate opiate deaths completely but we can make them as safe as possible. Restricting access isn't working.
this is a gold mine!
I've taken an introductory course on computer architecture, unfortunately we didn't get far and definitely didn't touch on anything about out-of-order execution or the similar magic CPUs do nowadays. this'll playlist will be my holidays theme

thanks for sharing!
Well it plays all ways. PC misses out on the console exclusives, consoles miss out on the PC exclusives, consoles themselves have different exclusives and don't interop. For people getting into gaming when they're young, a big influence is probably what their friend group is playing on, which in turn is probably inspired by whatever their parents decide to let them on. That or whatever games is latest hotness.

When I was young Minecraft forcefully evangelized my friend group, which had previously been more nintendo/xbox, into PC gamers. The origins of a lot of my current interests and career go back to the initial questions of: Why is minecraft running at low FPS? How do I set up a minecraft server? It's a little different nowadays, when some of the biggest multiplayer titles are cross-platform.
The argument here is that they're saying the misbehaviour is a result of the prison conditions essentially being torture, and under more humane conditions there wouldn't be the same degree of instability or loss of control.

If bringing up autistic people to a normal level of behaviour was as cheap as giving them some food stamps and money for clothes, this could be more affordable than prison, as well as more humane, as well as more likely to result in said autistic person to contribute to the tax base.

Autism is sometimes essentially a digestive disorder or sensory disorder which presents in the form of asocial behaviour. The difference between Autism and ASPD in this context is that changing the diet of somebody with ASPD won't make them any less sociopathic, but changing the diet of somebody with autism will.
What about Jami? It runs almost everywhere and having an embeddable Jami library would be absolutely amazing, although a fair amount of work.
This experience always shocks me because it’s not aligned with my own.

Even on Twitter I never saw that junk. I followed almost exclusively tech folk, AWS community heros, NodeJS developers, Architects and Platform Engineers.

I’m not even a developer, but I followed them to be exposed more to that topic.

As a result, my feed was 99.9% technical content and product management content.

I got the same result in under an hour with Threads too - just mute every. Single. Thing. That you don’t want to see for an hour and then kill and re-launch the app. You’ll never see politics again.
Indeed. Then what is the blood being spilled for and how much more will need to be spilled to accomplish that goal - and do you think that is an acceptable amount?

Does the idea of the cure being worse than the disease mean anything to you? If you value the lives of Palestinians and Israelis equally, the IDF killing 16 times as many Palestinians as Hamas killed Israelis should concern you. And that for years the IDF has each year killed an order of magnitude more Palestinians than the Hamas killed Israelis should also concern you. The corpses don't care if they were murdered by terrorists or legally killed as collateral damage by an organized military.
This is a wild comment

If you showed GPT-3.5 to Claude Shannon he would say it’s what they were trying to create
Not necessarily. It turns out to really matter how the weights are initialized (randomly, but from which distribution?) for ordinary feed-forward neural nets that only uses standard neurons -- different activation functions have different optimal initialization distributions.

https://machinelearningmastery.com/weight-initialization-for...

A big breakthrough was Kaiming He's work on initialization for ReLU:

Very impressive! It's faster than some "dumb" apps doing plain old database fetches.

But what are these LPUs optimized for: tensor operations (like Google's TPUs) or LLMs/Transformers architecture?

If it is the latter, how would they/their clients adapt if a new (improved) architecture hits the market?

Pretty cool tech. I helped my dad experiment with stitching his artwork but he eventually decided to rely on a Betterlight scan back for a large format camera.

The inventor of the Betterlight made limited number of the devices with an experimental large format CCD made by (Nikon? Canon?). He since passed away and there's a small community of owners desperate to keep their scanners operable, it's a near exinct tech. They allow for ~500 megapixel scans of artwork.

I think they mean startup as a rough term for “unproven VC-funded firm”. Which isn’t a terrible usage, tho I think this is assuming spaceX’s current impressive work is a prelude to a paradigm-shifting SpaceX dominant era starting with Starship

Because we had (and still do have) an epidemic of fatal abuse of labeled, regulated opioids. I'm not saying restriction works either; I'm rejecting the pat solutionism of the original comment and acknowledging how difficult the problem is. Maybe legalization is a good idea, maybe not; what it certainly isn't is a solution to opioid deaths.
I assume the former, heh

Scaling is hard. Invite codes help with that. They’re not terribly hard to find, I’ve several that I’ll happily share with anyone I know from elsewhere.
You'd hope the VCs would know that a lead is in no way a durable moat. And the fact that everyone peed themselves over plugins tells me that those people have taken leave of their senses.

> all that VCs need to do is to find the next idiot to offload to.

This is the correct answer.
Kubernetes: Don't Use NodeLocal DNSCache on GKE (Without Cloud DNS)
It doesn't complicate the onboarding process though, because there's an official client and a default algo. That's Bluesky's whole thing: sensible defaults and easy onboarding, so it can be "just twitter" if you want it to be. But the open protocol and ecosystem that give you more options if/when you want them, and put pressure on the official ones to stay good

Huh, HTTPS works at home and work for me.
Why does having variable duration mean an equation cannot model this type of option?
There are very obviously algorithms in P which are not "efficient". For example, an algorithm in O(n^10^10^10) is not efficient in any reasonable sense. It is in fact much much much less efficient than O(e^n) for any n low enough that the whole thing would finish in under a year or so.

In practical terms, the class of efficient algorithms is probably O(n^3) at best, and even then assuming no huge constant factors.
> It still doesn't seem to have a public feed though

There is one at https://firesky.tv/

I think it exists as a proof that there is activity on Bluesky. If you were looking for a feed that highlights trending posts, this is not it.
Until I see what Bluesky's AT protocol federation looks like in practice, I'm not interested.

Without federation it's basically Twitter with less users. And even after federation it might be Mastodon/ActivityPub with less users.

Very disappointed in the direction they took to launch. Exclusive beta, no focus on decentralization despite that being the major selling point.
>heavily based on the "Space Exploration" mod

I'm pretty sure it's actually the same guy.
Couldnt a moving faraday cage act as a tracking beacon?

Subject of interest to specifically pop up on cams.

At least for me, I've spent the last ~3 years designing new feature ideas for twitter and twitter-like products as a hobby and been involved in various communities working on these issues. Ways to improve quality of comments, reduce conflict, improve context, build media literacy, etc. I need to get around to publishing these ideas but have definitely put real work in. This is the only one I've published in blog form [1], tho I've put bits of others out on twitter itself over the years. Fwiw I used to run product/design for a social media co and have on and off run communities all the way back to bbses.

As far as I'm concerned the innovation just isn't there in the core loops and UX of twitter-likes, it's all circa 2008 stuff.

It seems to be the "conversation" part, not necessarily "communication", one of the early stages in children's language acquisition is teaching the flow of back and forth responses and pausing for the other to speak: which seems to be what they're indicating in this article.

The point isnt that they are running Llama2-70B. The point is that they are running Llama2-70B faster than anyone else so far.
100%, but I wouldn’t characterize yourself as cynical

This pattern just happens over and over in VC/startup land. See IoT and cryptocurrency/NFT companies as previous example in previous tech hype cycles.
How do these make durable moats? I mean I guess if you've got your agents tuned up then you wouldn't want to change platforms. But that's garden variety stickiness at best. It wouldn't keep big corporate accounts onboard.
Well they kinda did! Not sure about “fully” but that’s not in the statement. Is there any objectively correct way to organize stuff?

More concretely/less annoyingly, I’d say Google isn’t a startup because they meaningfully accomplished (an interpretation of) their mission statement and have brought real value to people in that way. It’s not perfect but Google is a lot more of a finished product than starship
Isn't the answer obvious because of entropy. It's easier to create disorder but much more difficult to create order.
> More recently, Google seems totally okay with sites that show content to Googlebot but go out of their way not to show that content to regular users.

That’s not even an uncharitable interpretation of what I wrote.

I was talking about the domestic law enforcement continuing to use the stuff they got for cheap/federally subsidized, or free, because “it’s effective.”
The pathing of the enemies in Mindustry feels somehow more like a classic tower defense game. I think they come from a small number of points and are primarily focused on your “town hall” type structure.

They’ve certainly got a lot of overlap, but Mindustry feels like a tower defense game that has a good factory builder added on, while Factorio feels like the other way around.

Anyway, two great games.

I mean, there's plenty of UX innovation going on in the fediverse, for example. But for some reason bringing that up is consistently met with "that can't ever work! nobody can understand this! it's too difficult!" and complete bafflement from the peanut gallery.

I think tech companies' lack of interest in experimenting with UX might have something to do with that...

an O(N^2) algorithm could be useless, if it's a galactic algorithm: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galactic_algorithm

conversely, theoretically an O(N^100) algorithm could be practical if it's ~N^2 in practice except on very rare instances. remember big-O is an upper bound.
It’s interesting for sure but ‘conversation’ seems like an oversell here. That implies some sort of exchange of information at the least which doesn’t seem like what happened?

> To avoid ndots issues, the most straightforward solution is to have at least five dots in our hostname. Fluent-bit is one of the biggest abusers of the DNS requests. ... As it now has five dots in the domain, it doesn’t trigger local search anymore.

But it wasn't DNS. DNS didn't break. The protocol didn't break. Not even issues with the CoreDNS or dnsmasq implementations.

The culprit was ndots (why did Kubernetes arbitrarily choose five dots) and the general way that Kubernetes (ab)uses DNS.
You could've said the same thing about Google (specifically their AI efforts) 5-10 years ago, and what ended up happening is the majority of their best engineers left for other places like...OpenAI.
No, more like Kubernetes. Mesos lost the race long time ago. Kubernetes has won.

But my idea is more like, on the terminal, the ps utility gives you list of processes and a column indicating machine they are scheduled on.

Like all the standard tooling pretty much should work.
During the early days of what would become Bluesky, they first reviewed the available options for decentralized public communications and nothing out there checked all the boxes. So they moved forward building something completely new that did.
