We own three BEVs for quite some years now and no ICE cars and I drive a lot so your assumptions are wrong right at the start.

You seem to be making a common mistake of thinking that one always needs to charge from empty to full in every charge. Not so. A common scenario would be arriving home with 190 miles of range left on the battery, and plugging in. After a few minutes, you have to go out again, no problem. Eventually you come home for the night with 160 miles of charge left, and plug in again. Overnight you get let’s say (super slow case) 40 miles and now you’re at 200 or more. Not the problem you are envisioning.

You may also be forgetting that public fast chargers which can be used in a pinch do exist.

220 is also an option so let’s not restrict ourselves to 110/120.

But if we must talk about 110, I’ll point out that we survived just fine for 2 years with 2 BEVs sharing (alternating cars) ONE 110 outlet in an apartment after laboring, like many mistakenly do, under the false assumption that you still carry that it was not an option, for an entire year, before we realized that it was totally doable. It worked great. We also used fast chargers when needed but they were not needed very often.

Ignorance is definitely a thing, but it works both ways.

Cracking simply when running defrost after having parked outside overnight? I have never experienced this or heard of anyone who has experienced this.
I'm still confused. Sure, a GPU is a real, physical thing. But licenses and fees are no more or less fiction than copyright. A license says "I have permission from the company makers to use this product", similar to how copyright is "you must get permission from me to use my product".

But for the sake of this discussion: I don't think anyone can assume those permissions when using a tool to generate the base image. Ironically enough, it may make more sense to have artists for concepting, copyrighting the character or world so you obtain those permissions, and then using AI to ramp up production. That's an inversion of what's happening for early AI usage.

The main question is how much concepting is needed to copyright a character? Making a few sketches in private? Releasing a full work first with no AI on what you want to copyright?
It's not "AI", but Motion's (not to be confused with Notion) algorithm is pretty good.

When you add a task, you specify an urgency, time estimate, and what "schedule" it belongs to (e.g. work, personal, etc). Schedules are different categories with their own "slots" of time that a task can fill. You can also specify whether to use chunking, which lets the algorithm break a task into multiple events based on the "minimum chunk duration" you set for that task.

For example, let's say you create a 9-5 "schedule" for work. It's currently 3pm. You add two tasks:

- 3h, Task A, low priority, set min chunk duration to 1h

- 1h, Task B, high priority

Motion will schedule this as follows:

- 3-4pm today, Task B

- 4-5pm today, Task A

- 9-11am tomorrow, Task A

If you were to swap the urgencies, it will automatically reschedule those tasks (and any tasks that follow it, assuming they are marked as "auto-schedule")

Tbh the only problem is it's price. I use it quite a lot but I'm not sure I'll renew my annual subscription next month.

There's also Reclaim.ai, but I found Motion was faster to use and had a better UI
I didn't mean it in an ironic way if that's what you're referring to. I interpreted your statement to say "I don't want my search history connected to my credit card.", sorry if I misunderstood what you said.

If what you mean is you don't believe they are not connected to your account, I can point you to the FAQ entry on their website.

The standards applied are exactly the same regardless of what tools are used. It doesn't matter if you're talking about a dumb AI, a general purpose AI, or a Xerox machine.

If you want an exception to copyright, you're going to want to start looking at a section 107 (of the copyright act) exception: https://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap1.html#107

The reason someone walking down the street and humming a song is not a violation is because it very clearly meets all of the tests in section 107.

The biggest problem with feeding stuff through a black box like an LLM is it isn't easy for a human to determine how close the result is to the original. An LLM could act like a Xerox machine, and it won't tell you.
> The point of having laws is to resolve the problem

This statement is normative and has no relation to how laws are actually created.

Can you name a framework of laws that was implemented by a sovereign, explicitly developed to resolve the problem of heterogeneous goal vectors for a defined political population?

I’m unaware of one.

All foundational “constitutions” I’m aware of were written - not as treaties that were negotiated as partners during peace that have explicit and well defined ethical principles that need to be accommodated for - rather each side claim discrete and finite sovereignty and only at the point that one group shows overwhelming violent dominance is imminent do groups grudgingly carve out their own territory.

So no, there is no coherent process for lawmaking that does anything other than encode the desires of the dominant political arm into the structures of its own making.
Thanks. This is awesome. I think they are doing more work themselves in terms of crypto, whereas we rely on QUIC+TLS more.

Regarding holepunching, our approach is a bit less pure p2p, but has quite good success rates. We copy the DERP protocol from tailscale.

I am confident that we have a better story regarding handling of large blobs. We don't just use blake3, but blake3 verified streaming to allow for range requests.

Also I wrote my own rust library for blake3 verified streaming that reduces the overhead of the verification data. https://crates.io/crates/bao-tree

I tried to get on their discord at https://veilid.com/discord, but I get an invalid invite. You know a better way to get in touch?

They have human moderators who by and large care about maintaining the quality of the communities they moderate, and give those moderators buttons to delete posts and ban users.

Although FWIW, reddit seems to have it's fair share of astroturfing (at least, in my own anecdotal experience), it's just comparatively less egregious than rawdogging the google results.
There are apparently different methods. Apple Watch 3-5 created vo2 max data without a pulse oximeter.
I think copyright lawsuits against AI companies will force them to develop attribution models. They will do the work of indexing all ideas to their authors. This will also reveal what is common knowledge, and who borrowed from who without attribution.

In order to make attribution models we need text+author+timestamp. We can get that from books, newspaper articles, scientific papers and social network posts. Then we extend to the rest of the training set.

But then we can also make AI models that cleverly avoid infringement while the same strict checking is going to be applied to human made content. Humans are not that good at avoiding pitfalls.
Mainly I prefer to be able to move my data around. I'm pretty sure those formats are really hard to you data out of. I know it doesn't seem like an issue now, but it might be if you ever decide to leave Apple's Ecosystem. On principle, I will not support systems that design their products to lock you into platforms.
Thanks! The project consists basically out of two components, the runtime and the editor.

The runtime is mostly self-written, focusing most of my efforts. The editor on the other hand is built on `rete.js` (https://retejs.org/) and Angular. ReteJS is a really amazing node editor framework. While I customized almost everything that was possible, a lot of credit goes to them.

In hindsight, Angular might have been a little bit of overkill, but it's the framework I'm comfortable with, given my very limited web development experience.

The editor is available here on GitHub and should work out of the box with the default VS Debug Configuration https://github.com/actionforge/graph-editor

Frameless windows is an example of over complicating vehicles with needless technology that inevitably breaks and really doesn’t add anything to the experience of the vehicle. I am unclear why manufacturers keep designing features like this.

The thing is, I never thought Kagi was down and thought that it must be a problem with my configuration or connection. That was how much I trusted in Kagi. I didn’t spend whole downtime online though.
I've really fallen for Obsidian myself. I became somewhat of an evangelist for it in my office. Much like the author i tend to use it as a "backstage for my life". In the interest of sharing my system with my colleagues i even turned my work vault into a template of sorts [^1].

Though that's also the most interesting part about Obsidian. What works for one person doesn't necessarily work for another. When i presented my template to my colleagues i definitely got some comments like: "oh man, my brain doesn't work that way" or "this feels overly complex". It's interesting how a simple markdown editor has become this analogue for some of our brains.

[^1]: https://github.com/m-triassi/obsidian-workvault-template - This is still a work in progress, but if anyone has suggestions or things they'd like to share i'd be open to feedback or even PRs!
Not me - if I don't want like a website's design, I am going to close the tab.

Similarly, as a hiring manager (mainly software engineers), I come across some very "unique" resumes which I do look through out of curiosity but the maverick-factor is quite high with these candidates, and they usually are a disruption with their constant "unique" approaches to working with the team.

They would want to rewrite large modules your way and take forever to do it, then never actually contribute any productive code in any area...we made some hiring mistakes like that, and rather than wasting just that one engineer, these mishires ended up wasting other people's time, which is much worse.

Sometimes, it helps to be conformant (another brick in the wall, so to speak) to the standard protocol/format to have maximum compatibility.
This is a bad idea if your memcpy starts by adding len to src or dst, since nullptr + 0 is nasal demons in C.
It's only real if you believe it has value. If you choose to say copyright is made up and doesn't have real value then it isn't real to you, but recognize that it's arbitrary as others will believe in the value of copyright so still has value in their eyes. e.g. Taking a copyright from someone (if that were possible) would cost them like taking a fee costs them--losing something they value.
Very good!

Alternatively, if I created a large body of works that were 90% Lisa Frank and brought it to a large market distribution, making significant revenue, then she could sue me for damaging her market and her brand. Which she has done to others in the past and rightly won. Go Lisa Frank!

But, if I used an AI tool in the process of making an image that came out 10% Lisa Frank, she wouldn't have a strong case against me. Nor does she have a case against the million random teenagers hand-copying her style but not making significant revenue from their copies.

Either way, AI doesn't really factor in here. The results are the results and the markets are the markets regardless of AI or paint brushes.
I don't expect the fees to go down. If you decouple Apple from the iPhone app distribution network, they can charge 100% fees for all I care. That is an entirely separate charge from the $99 developer registration fee, which they can also change to reflect their "SDK cost" or whatever. That's why ultimately, I don't care if Apple charges outrageous fees for their ecosystem. As long as competitors have equal access, there's no captive market to exploit.

What I expect is that, for the first time, Apple and their App Store partners will be forced to reckon with user choice. Their business will have to change if their success is predicated on a neverending source of R&D funding from payment processing revenue.
Awesome! I wish you had started this 18 months ago when I needed something like this. I wanted something like shopify but for a SAAS and the closest I came was consultants. As perhaps helpful feedback, it would be essential that there's an open source version so that I don't feel trapped but I'm not sure how you can monetise that enough. I probably wouldn't have paid for consulting. I have seen some open source projects that delay the open source release vs commercial, that might have got me to pay. Or premium add-ons. Anyway, just wanted to let you know, this was a bleeding neck problem I had, but now that I'm 18 months into writing my own app and platform. (Half the work has been boring infra that doesn't advance the business.) Good luck!
Is Apple going to keep this feature in watches sold elsewhere and just disable it in the US? I know other features like ECG are restricted based on your location as well…
This can, however, be run entirely inside of Docker - something I’ve done numerous times on a remote sever. This even allows for the web interface to be used, though that kind of defeats the purpose.
Very cool premise. Keep at it!

And plus, what's the point? Most people work for money. But that's satisfying our needs. If you already have a cash pile though, you actually need to find a way of making a difference again to keep getting out of bed. I think that's much harder. Some people never find their passion.

We’re not talking about apartments. The parent post specifically looked at having access to a standard outlet.

If you live in an apartment without an electrified garage then of course the BEV use case is less likely to work for you. And I totally agree on public chargers. Non-Tesla is a complete crapshoot and probably will be for several more years until the adoption curve forces the infrastructure to improve.
The tragedy of the commons relates to deletable resources, such as grass feed for livestock. How's that relevant to ML models that create content/resources about as fast as most can think? What's being depleted?
Raising kids absolutely sucks 99.9% of the time. Society is constantly riding your ass demanding you follow their every law, desire, and regulation and if you do it right no one gives a shit other than to milk the kid dry in taxes for being raised to be productive. If you do it wrong, well there's a jail cell waiting and you lose all your friends and family and live in terrible guilt. The kid, well perhaps rightly the kid thinks he's owed a proper raising so there's no thanks for providing it.

It's a suckers game and by the time you're free again you're getting old and evolution is ready to wind you down. Knowing what I do now, I wouldn't do it again.

It is still being advertised as a feature on the Ultra 2 - https://www.apple.com/apple-watch-ultra-2/

I recently bought one and this was one of the features that drew me to it. I wander if I can ask for my money back if they remove the feature?
That assumes that the current crop of LLMs are a fundamental technological shift.

Furthermore, rights holders did it for file sharing, why not AI too?
That's correct. Even under CCPA analysis of anonymous aggregate data is consisted a legitimate use and not really a risk to PII.
Who cares what the size of the "little guys" is? The size is not the point. The point is Apple stole(again) from someone, now they have to pay.

Breaking the law isn't when the offended party is only children, grandmas and puppies instead of other corporations.

Next time they should try the legal way of doing business, like paying to license IP like everyone else. Stealing is bad m'kay.
I'll venture to say the majority of these "open access models" are meant to serve as advertisements of capabilities (either of hardware, research, or techniques) and nothing more. MPT being one of the most obvious example.

Many don't offer any information, some do offer information but provide no new techniques and just threw a bunch of compute and some data to make a sub-par model that shows up on a specific leaderboard.

Everyone is trying to save a card up their sleeve so they can sell it. And showing up on scoreboards is a great advertisement.
Ubisoft can get more comfortable with me not giving them any money then.
I hear you, and I think it's a fair thing to establish for oneself what constitutes effective communication.

The question I would put to you though is this: what is the value of what was said, and following that, what effect is your linguistic filter having on your acquisition of quality, reliable information? (realizing, as another commenter pointed out, that I made an error and that fentanyl is actually schedule II, which is another bonkers discussion entirely).

Like you, I'm not on the defensive or trying to attack you in any way. I just think it's a valuable skill to be able to synthesize information from a variety of contexts; especially in a world like ours, where combining information from various sources (cultures, communities, etc) can add up to more than the sum of the individual datum.

As for my usage of the language (so you don't think I got GPT to write this for me), it's a nod to the American writers of the 1960s-70s, who had to deal quite a bit with the fiction of the self-destructive "druggie", created by a political regime that was pushing a drug war.

That said, it is something to consider that my point could have been lost. I appreciate the feedback.
I know you're really really sad that one person can't hold all similarities to their chosen likeness in copyrighted perpetuity, but it sounds like you have a problem that things are SIMILAR and the artist isn't getting paid for any adjacent likeness instead of content itself being directly stolen. Regarding that topic, you should be able to find my morally, ethically and legally backed response via midjourney by prompting it to create the world's smallest violin.

This discussion makes people immediately place themselves under the boot of technology and display active helplessness almost entirely because they can't handle the mentality that it's now a commodity to get what they consider a "unique artstyle". That you can be "unique" if you consistently draw a line in thicker shades around borders and use flashy colors in a way no one has decided to try yet, and that this style "belongs" to you being extrapolated to the point of your artistic hobby becoming the only reflection of your identity as a person. Sad for those who staked their lives around capitalistic ideals.

Yeah I gave up on it trying to sync photos. The apps on the desktop and mobile gave no indication of its state processing files. So I was waiting after a large upload for replication to occur days later and I didn’t know if it would ever complete.
I tend to keep laptops a lot longer than most. My second-last laptop was a Lenovo T410 from 2010. Still works well, and I really like its keyboard.

Glad Technitium is getting its day on HN! I've been using this for around six months now, did a deployment on my home network after rebuilding it from scratch. Multiple zones, forward zones, hosting SOA for internal domains, DNSSEC. Hands down the BEST modern DNS infra you can deploy if PiHole doesn't fit all of your needs. I'm running it on a Raspberry Pi 4 alongside my Unifi controller with zero issues!

Using Technitium on your local network is like rolling your own Route 53 management console internally. I hate to use that comparison, but I think that'll hit more for some users on HN! If you need that kind of fine grained control, or if you just don't want your hand held on DNS, that is why you would choose this over PiHole.

Thank you to the Technitium team for giving us such a great product! Even if your name is hard to spell.
I can buy a 3rd party bulb that I can put directly into a vehicle I own, how Ford sources the bulbs they put into the vehicles they sell or repair has nothing to do with that.

Steam deck recommends you purchase the official steam dock but they don't prevent you, nor do they take a cut of, 3rd party docks that interface with the steam deck.

only in tech would someone argue they should be entitled to a cut of that transaction because they _sold_ the original hardware to the user.
Maybe some, but nearly every person I've ever heard even mention unions has held one of two (mutually exclusive) views: "unions good" or "unions bad".
