Isn't the latter already a copyright infringement? So in this case, both should be forbidden?

I think the more immediate issue with AI is that it's like having access to a close-to-zero cost human who doesn't care whether or not they're creating content which, if a human did it, would be considered a copyright infringement. And that they care so little about copyright (and other data rights) that they're basically incapable of even warning you if they are close to an existing character or living person.

I don't know how this is going to play out, but right now we're getting a more polite re-run of the luddites smashing early industrial equipment. I can sympathise with the loss of purpose and economic disenfranchisement, but the economic power in that revolution went to those that did the most automation, and I expect the same to be true this time.

I'm happy to talk to anyone or just bat ideas around, don't hesitate to contact me, even if you're not looking to hire.

15 years of experience between research/academic, business consulting and AI consulting + entrepreneurship. Very flexible but the ideal is a job that combines talking to customers (e.g. business development / sales) with some technical depth, for example by doing BD part time and writing code part time, or by working on complex deals that have a defining technology component. I have experience running my own business and working on long sales cycle enterprise deals, as well as technical machine learning software experience. Particularly interested in AI and in working at a startup.

Feel free to text, my number is in my resume.
Somewhat agree.

In physical infrastructure, they're spending ~$40 billion over 2 years on hardware without a specific goal or product in mind.

On the product front, maybe Threads will be something different from Twitter/X and Instagram. I still fail to see how it's not an and-me-too, undifferentiated product.

I agree that H.W. is a joke. VR is an unconquered category for 50+ years, like flying cars, probably because there is no "there" there and it's not useful or better to enough people on its own. It could be useful for limited, tailored solutions like virtual building walkthroughs, construction, architecture, engineering, air traffic control, and occasional gaming but I don't see everyone wanting non-AR VR. Rich AR with some VR aspects would be much more useful, such as glasses or contacts that can provide overlays of information while moving in the physical world. Virtually visiting the physical or virtual worlds is an add-on but not a useful category by itself.

Oculus allows for running a VR game like Fallout 4 VR on a PC with GPU acceleration, but then presenting it on a device like a Oculus Quest Pro over WiFi. The linking is a PITA and failure-prone. Honestly, most of the Oculus software feels like an incomplete, alpha-stage product with a shiny UI over it. Even the Oculus Quest Pro hardware reeked of nasty VOCs straight out of the box. The other things are capable VR headsets are expensive, bulky, battery limited, and insufficiently multipurpose.

Overarching problems with Meta, Google, and Apple is they suffer from the pathologies and encumbrances of publicly-traded businesses with corporate red-tape, certain they want to stay relevant, profit today, kill off good products arbitrarily, risk-aversion, imagination calcification, and cluelessness about what will be The Next Big Thing™. Their loss is the gain of cleverer teams to bring the future by executing on what big companies will not or cannot do.

Not sure that is exactly my point.

I fly a lot.
I see people using electronics for scrolling through photos, playing candy crush, browsing reddit, etc...

The point is, that allowing these activities for a few more minutes during takeoff/landing, is not providing any benefit that would justify killing even 1 person, let alone hundreds.

It isn't like someone is going to use that extra 5-10 minutes of using their device to cure cancer.
Thanks for the comment! It should’t take that long.

Regarding the other, in which part does that happen? I can’t reproduce it.
Makes sense. Innovation stacking explains speed of market penetration
I like rspamd much more (performance and redis) than SpamAssassin, and as you mentioned:

Are exellent tool's to check your "deliverability".
I feel that's the way it works - not "I'll start being good tomorrow" but the way in which you change those small decisions that you make 20 times a day about whether to eat something or do some exercise or whatever.

When you flex your decision making so that it regularly turns up right answers you have "got on the wagon". I have done this with diets and I'm currently "off the wagon" and this business of getting on usually starts with one big long bit of exercise - like an especially long walk and somehow I get the discipline out of that to kick me onto the right track.

Once on the track I'm ok till I am sick or until the darkest bit of winter or until very stressful things happen at work.

So I realise life will always be up and down for me - which is just better than always down.
Substack seems increasingly popular, though not among devs for some reason.
Which lawsuits? Newspapers are free to remove themselves from google at any time.

You might be thinking of newspapers’ political campaigns such as C-18 in Canada, which were done in bad faith. The newspapers wanted links to stay but wanted money too.

OpenAI can’t do this for NYT without destroying their model and remaking it.
Why We Do Not Evolve Software?
> I get like 3-5 spams per week in my inbox

I'm more curious about the opposite metric: how many non-spam emails a week arent getting delivered to you? Because that seems to be the real flaw in spamassassin: the false positive rate.

And the spamassassin users don't usually have much visibility into this, so when emails don't get to them they just blame the sender.
I don’t routinely do so but there are a few basic things that in an ideal world you should probably have on your person in some secure way—which admittedly probably requires some specific clothing.

ADDED: There probably are certain specialized critical medicines that people should carry in a vial around their necks that they’re not getting anytime soon from an overwhelmed trauma center. But that’s probably true even absent the plane crash scenario.
Reputation works well because of those other rules. If every office365/gmail email got through and everything lose was blocked spammers would just move to those platforms. Thus email inspection is a critical component enabling reputation based filtering.

If you want some interesting reads on the subject, read the books Why We Get Sick by Benjamin Bikman and Always Hungry by David Ludwig. Both are scientists in this field of research. Both provide some sounds advice based on that research for eating more healthy.
It seems curbing natality is the easy part, despite all doomerism around population explosion. To raise it back when needed not so simple.
IMHO, lack of empathy is a principal reason for moral piracy in ones teens.

You rail against "the system" to justify not paying for something...

... but really you just don't have money, want something, and don't want to feel bad about getting it. Cue post-hoc rationalization.

And money is a precious thing in teenage years! And time is not! So 3 hours scouring IRC to save $10 is a valid trade-off.

But I did like that shareware and smaller software companies, put a human face on things. You were giving money to a person (e.g. now example, Raymond Hill), not a corporate entity.
Bass and treble clefs are different because they need to cover different ranges. Likewise with alto and tenor clefs, the other two you see most often in modern notation. Or baritone clef, great bass clef, soprano clef, French violin clef... it goes on and on. Actually the mass codification of treble and bass clefs is a problem, because people don't learn to adapt. Once you can read four or five clefs fluently, new ones are pretty easy to deal with. If you only ever learn one or two they all seem difficult.

The "second number in the key signature" is actually in the time signature, and it's pretty important. Although we didn't always have it - some older music just says "3" and you have to figure out 3 whats by looking at the music. Or go earlier than that and you'd have a circle, a broken circle, or one of those with a line through it. And no bar lines. I think most musicians agree the current system is an improvement on these in general. But take modern convention, look at how we write out English traditional music and you'll see that the 3/4 or 3/2 distinction is quite important as the first one is a waltz and the second is a hornpipe. You might not care about that, but anybody trying to dance to that tune will.

If it helps, intervals are named in a 1-based system not a 0-based system. They're called octaves because you go to the eighth note in the sequence, not because you add seven. And yes I know there are actually 12 notes in an octave in Western music, but you're usually operating in a key or mode that has picked out eight of them to be used in that moment, because that's how Western harmony works.

Of course we can improve music notation, and we will - it is still changing. Composers need to write down things that haven't been written down before, so they come up with a way to represent it. If that thing catches on, the notation will become standardised.

Time signatures, which you called out, have changed completely over the centuries. You used to get a circle, a broken circle, or one of those with a line through it. That was it. They'll probably change again when someone has a really good reason to do it.

Even our conventions for what note values to use have changed. There's a reason the semibreve - a whole bar of 4/4 - has a name which means "half a short note". Yet many musicians today don't know what a breve or a long or a longa even look like, because there's been a shift towards using quavers, semiquavers, demisemiquavers and so forth. The whole US system for note naming kind of enforces that, with the idea of a semibreve being a "whole note" as if 4/4 is somehow special (it's not).
So if you understand 'Why not?' then why ask a rhetorical question like that in previous comment?

It seems like it could only confuse the discussion, and passing readers, and not help in any way.
I use Lockdown mode and YouTube (website) works for me using the Vinegar extension.

You can opt-out the WebView/in-app-browser of specific apps from lockdown mode, which might help with Youtube (if you opt out Firefox). Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Lockdown Mode > Configure Web Browsing. Then uncheck whichever app's webviews you want to exclude from it.

You can also opt out specific websites in Safari, while browsing, by tapping the settings icon in the left of the URL bar, then Website Settings, then unchecking Lockdown Mode.

It says the target is wayland. But which wayland? The set of waylands that support "complex" input device behaviors with libei? Or the set of waylands that hate libei (sway, etc) and will never use it and still plan to roll their own "someday"? And on top of that, will it require libportal with the InputCapture PR? Or xdg-desktop-portal on the other side? I guess what I'm saying is that there's no such thing as "wayland support" for complex input device since "wayland" the standard doesn't support it. There is only support for some subset of the waylands bodge/workarounds.

It's a shame to see each Wayland DE become it's own incompatible thing. Even the lan-mouse readme's OS support table separates them as if they were their own OSes. Good luck in your very complex multi-faceted endeavour.
> An AI training itself on a million newspaper articles can be declared legal, sure, but what happens when it also starts spitting out the same articles with nearly no modification? Is that still fair use?

That would not be transformative. If it is also provided as a commercial service that directly competes against the copyright holder, then that would not be 'fair use'.
The electoral college determines who becomes president and the president has the overt power to veto bills and the more subtle ability to influence the government's agenda.

The number of electoral votes a state has is also equal to the number of representatives that they send to congress. So the unbalanced distribution of electors also reflects an unbalanced distribution of representatives.
I think they do, don't they? The whole "why didn't he call?", "all guys are pigs" trope isn't that new.
I really hope so. The authorities haven't even compensated most of the victims yet, still stalling. Hopefully the series will shame them into doing the right thing. It was disgusting what they did to these poor people, mostly just small mom and pop businesses who couldn't fight back.

It appears as though that course has been replaced with "Getting Started with Accelerated Computing in CUDA C/C++" which is $90 as a self-paced online class with a certificate at the end.

The course you are referring to is instructor-led and costs $10,000 to have them set up, for up to 20 people.
While LLMs are designed to generalize from their training data, rather than simply memorizing it, overfitting occurs in niche areas. There's be plenty of niche areas and LLMs of today merely repeat training data, like with the NYT case. Larger datasets and better algorithms will help to an extent, but you'll always have niche topics where overfitting happens. The intent has always been to generalize well, however, it may not be feasible to do so in the long tail of the internet. How should copyright law address this?
Ah, please tell me the easy way to include interactive js demos in wordpress like the blog post author has. It's obvious that the blogpost author wants a level of customization that wordpress can't offer.

Also, trying new technologies was literally a goal of the project.

Had a lead dev who really liked HAML.

He was working on a web app and we deduced he hated HTML, because 1) he liked HAML, and 2) the two most technical people spent a lot of time cleaning up bugs he authored.

That whole project was a mess so that never achieved high priority status. I would have distrusted HAML anyway, but that experience certainly punctuated that feeling.

This is not an arena where an impedance mismatch has any payoff worth paying. You're working on a web app. Use HTML and CSS (SCSS if you must)
I remember using ACDSee in my Windows desktop era, and for what it's worth I enjoy "feh" on Linux today in a similar vein.
Reminds me of a lesser-known story from the Falklands War. On the HMS Sheffield, there was a civilian laundry worker. When the ship was struck and sank, he tragically drowned, reportedly burdened by a large number of £1 coins he carried from laundry payments.
Sometimes the medium is the message. A web developer's blog can be a platform to show off their skills, and the blog itself is one way to do that.
If you wanted to operate a haven for independent email hosting, where you want to assure deliverability in the face of Gmail's sender reputation system, you would need to classify your outbound traffic, and have a death penalty for spammers. If you tolerate any activity that peers classify as spam, that would tank your reputation.
Sorry to be argumentative, but it just isn't. It's PHP, and you probably don't need to code anything at all. You also don't need many plugins. Incompatibility issues and vulnerabilities just aren't a thing - as long as you keep stuff up to date and don't install a thousand dodgy plugins, you'll be fine.

And yes, this is what I do: maintaining 50+ sites for clients, so I have been round the block a few times, not just making this up.
That's not very charitably of you. I asked you a plain question, because you stated a problem without the consequences. Don't assume everyone is in your little bubble.
> Nope, it is not.

Yes it is.

> If it was a property, if would be everywhere true

It would only need to be true sometimes.

> and that's not really interesting, is it?

I think how humans generate and then perceive reality is extraordinarily interesting actually.

>> Did you consider how "makes sense" is implemented?

> You are the implementation.

Then why are you acting if your implementation is correct?

>Does most of Philosophy make sense to you?

I've only read tiny portions, so no. How about yourself?
That's a reasonable point, but I don't think that changes the underlying issue: some votes count more than others.

My job is exactly to fix code which was not understood by its creators. And this “I have no idea why, but it works” (until it doesn’t) is the main cause of most of the problems which I work on.

For example, at my current company the developer who introduced a “clever” navigation system didn’t know how HTML forms should be used, and why servers still allowed what they did. It worked. Now, 20+ years later that sole developer’s stupid decision, and lack of HTML best practices will cost my company a few million dollars (and by the way already cost probably a few million). A missing day of learning (and by the way a clear sign, that that developer should’ve never trusted with this task).

Senior developers learn this, and I’ve never seen that better developers would be satisfied and would say “yeah, I fixed it”, when they don’t understand the what and how completely, even when it’s not strictly necessary. They burned themselves enough times.
> It's a bonus to them that every time they block a smaller host there is a good chance that sender will consider a move to office365 or Google Workspace for their mail.

The irony is that a substantial amount of the spam I receive comes from those platforms.
> the git commit already contains information about which files are affected

Right, but this is not always the same as the files which I intended to be affected, and the matching of the two is the sanity check here.
