It's hard to spend 8h/day for most of your adult life in a given environment and pretend you're not a social creature at the same time.
You absolutely can, but having a needle in you 24/7 isn't the most convenient thing, not to mention the cost when it's not covered by your health plan.

There's one theory which is that the most effective form of weight loss might be simply to always keep blood sugar below a certain level. Still just a theory, though.

It's possible that sometime in the next decade the Apple Watch might be able to monitor glucose levels non-invasively. However, it's extremely difficult technologically, so it's not clear Apple will succeed. (They seem to be working on it though.)
Nobody is going to use vertical farming to grow bushels of wheat.

I think the general idea is that it can be used to grow fresh produce with a short shelf life which require fragile and expensive just-in-time logistics to get to your plate before going bad.

The fact that expensive restaurants are already using it to produce fresh produce is probably a sign that it can be made mass market if costs can be reduced. The produce is fresher and not spritzed with pesticides. Isn't that preferable?

This is all quite plausible, especially as solar/wind is leading to more periods of very very cheap or even free energy, the automation is getting better and the tech is falling in price.
It's not actively developed, but not abandoned either, if you judge by the closing of issues in the dedicated repository. It's also my file manager of choice (minimalist UI but reasonably featured).
Can you elaborate this? It sounds interesting.
Is there documentation of this 22% figure?

The implication is that it's large paragraphs of solid work stolen from a fellow researcher in the field. But it could just as easily mean 22% of her text was scattered with cliches, idioms and excerpts from legislation (or other standard texts) if someone with an agenda was interpreting the results.

Ask HN: Is the internet a zero-sum game? is karma -ve and +ve globally zero?
i'm thinking for all these folks out there who feel +ve about their online interactions, how many out there end the day feeling -ve? is there any reason to believe it is globally a zero-sum game or is the internet actually creating (or depreciating) social value in aggregate?

You cannot copy from yourself. Reusing material and passing it off as new, no matter its author, is plagiarism.
So what? You can gatekeep as much as you like, but whatever humans relate to as art is art.
Nobody says you can't - you just need to cite the source, your previous work.
If you assume you can "sync faster than requests come in to the system", you've necessarily chosen C not-P, i.e. you don't have a distributed system (and in practice you've probably chosen not-A too).
What did lifeboats of that period stock for emergency rations?

> Immediately after hearing the collision with an iceberg, the chief baker leapt out of his bunk and began dispatching his staff to stock the lifeboats with bread and biscuits ... Not only did Joughin refuse his own place in a boat, but he and a few other men began forcibly chucking reluctant women into empty seats, likely saving their lives ... while scholars have obsessed about the boozy reputation of Charles Joughin, beneath it all might simply have been a man unwilling to die. “It’s impossible for scientists to predict who will perform and respond well to extreme situations,” noted Cheung. “Some people give up very quickly, others you just cannot seem to kill.”
This is reprehensible.
> Thousands of reviews, book reports, quotations on fan sites and so on are published daily; you seem to be arguing that they are all copyright violations unless and until the original copyright holder takes those reviewers, seventh graders, and Tumblr stans to court and loses, at which point they are now a-ok.

That is precisely what I am arguing about and how it works. People have sued reviewers for including too much of the original text in the review ... and won[1]. Or simply having custom movie poster depicting too much of the original[2].

> "transformative uses" have literally been name-checked by courts. It's also been established that commercial companies can ingest mountains of copyrighted material and still fall under the fair use doctrine -- this is what the whole Google Books case about a decade ago was about. Google won.

Google had a much simpler argument than transforming the text. They were allowing people to search for the text within books (including some context). In this case, AI's product wouldn't even work without the original work by the authors, and then transforms it into something else "the author would have never thought of", without attributing the original[3]. I don't think this will be a valid defense...

> I feel like you're trying to make a moral argument against generative AI, one that I largely agree with, but a moral argument is not a legal argument.

A jury would decide these cases, as "fair use" is incredibly subjective and would depend on how the jury was stacked. Stealing other people's work is illegal, which eventually triggers a lawsuit. Then, it falls on humans (either a jury or judge) to determine fair use and how it applies to their situation. Everything from intent to motivation to morality to how pompous the defense looks will influence the final decision.[4]

Moreover, the fact that his later stances seem to ridicule “himself and the Occupy movement” doesn’t make them incompatible with anarchism. It means he reconsidered his earlier beliefs.
Thinking only from a US perspective, I don’t see these becoming viable. Ignoring even the technology required for these to run, just the vast amounts of land the US has seems to defeat the purpose. Sure you could grow bespoke greens and berries but even that seems like something that could be done in a premium greenhouse facility on the outskirts of a town.

One of my favorite lettuce brands Revol, grows their greens in advanced greenhouses that use less water and lots of technology to optimize the process. This is the future, not vertical. https://www.revolgreens.com/greenhouses/
Sure. The person using it has intent. Now we have come to a point in which intent alone is art. Let there be light.
The entire subject is just annoying to respond to; on the topic of beauty it is much more helpful to have people advocating a positive than decrying a negative. It is too easy to complain that the world doesn't meet an unspecified artistic standard. It probably doesn't, but without some details on what standard we're talking about there is no conversation to be had. We don't do fiddly buildings these days, but that is because we're a lot better at building these days and a big building isn't automatically a masterpiece.

Although on the art front I'm looking forward to learning what storms lie in wait for the first publicly notable pro-Trump statue in the US. It'll be a real cultural discovery.
Seems like the other commenter was smart enough to understand, if you aren't, that is your problem.
I think a lot of people only had acquaintances and confuse that with friendship. Building real friendships at work is rare.
I'm a US citizen and I've been to India ~ 10 times. Mostly always Mumbai/Pune. The first few times I was optimistically surprised at how less expensive services and food were "I could live like a king here". However I realized that while things were cheaper, the quality of the services were much much lower than the same service in the US. I started to search for the best services for things I needed (and cared about) and the cost ended up being the same or sometimes more than the equilvilant in the states.

This is just a small observation that I remember and I wonder if it what you are talking about.
There's the free & open source clone of Total Commander - Double Commander. It's compatible with TC extensions, and just like TC also written in FreePascal.

Nobody here ever makes friends at work. Or so they say.
Plagiarism is not a crime, it’s an ethical foul.
The difference between a cult and a religion is this: a cult wants it all but a religion just wants their cut.
Am I the only person here who remembers when AltaVista implemented their Raging Search lean search engine after cluttering themselves with the usual “web portal” riffraff of the late nineties?

I was using www.raging.com (or was .org or .net) until I switched to Google sometime in 2000 or 2001. I remember it was sometime in summer, June or thereabouts, but I don’t remember the year. How weird.
Yeah I submitted that site before I poked around and looked at his political and religious views.

I try to respect everyone's opinion regarding those matters, but it's really hard when there are people who deal in absolutes and can't respect other peoples' opinions.

Unfortunately, mixing politics and religion is a poor choice. I don't think God chooses sides between republicans and democrats, or whatever parties happen to be common in your country or time that you exist.

That's the gist if it, isn't it? If the scam works it's Divine Providence, but if the scam blows up in their face then the devil made them do it. What matters the most is that it's never their responsibility and thus they are never responsible and accountable for anything they do.
Do you not keep your books according to GAAP either?

If you make up your own accounting rules and it seems to work for you, well, more power to you.

I like to have a clear understanding of where my business is going and the GAAP rules are pretty reasonable and align with other companies and what they do.
This is amazing, what kind of OCR are you using for the receipts? Or are you doing something else?
It's genuinely a difficult question because there are projects that have the exact same technical designs that are still legitimate projects. So how do you evaluate this? From my perspective it used to easier. I'd just look at the problems that the company was focusing on and ask: (1) are they solving a real issue (2) are they making a valid contribution with their solution?

Normally both 1 and 2 would be eliminated as projects tried to intentionally use buzzwords to confuse investors into thinking they were doing something cool. They would write papers that mentioned nothing specific and you would sometimes come away thinking: 'what the fug are you even building' or often 'this exists already so what is your take on it?' The latter of which is hard to deny because many tokens, ICOs, blockchains really don't need to exist. Technically you could have argued that Ethereum didn't need to make a new blockchain because a third-party system could have been made that added smart contract logic on top of Bitcoin like a soft fork. This would have been similar to master coin.

I'd say that the quality of the people around a project can tell you a lot. Often scammers use impressive sounding publicists to make them seem like they're successful entrepreneurs. But when you dig deeper its all just paid shilling.
Hard disagree.

I spent a very significant amount of my waking time working. This is one of the best opportunities to make friends, and IMHO it's also nicer to work with friends than with non-friends.

Most of the friends I made as an adult came from a work related setting.
You can have those 22%, no question, but then you have to cite the source which the minister apparently didn't.

The best bit is that the type name resolution depends on the current scope, but the scope itself is very unintuitive on edge cases. Jourdan and Pottier in their paper A Simple, Possibly Correct LR Parser for C11 [1] describe several edge cases, including the following case where scope is not necessarily consecutive:

typedef long T, U;
// T is an argument T is a typedef
// vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv ~~~
enum {V} (*f(T T, enum {U} y, int x[T+U]))(T t) {
// T is an argument (until the end of function)
// vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
long l = T+U+V+x[0]+y;
return 0;
}

Does anyone know of a web fuzzer like tool that mutates structures like JSON or file uploads or the like while it tests?

So things that look like reasonably complex HTTP requests but have deficiencies or small variations?

The last few API outages we had in my group were due to JSON payload edge-cases (either malformed or incorrectly structured) that weren't caught by what we thought were pretty extensive E2E tests and validation.
Agreed. This article is one persons misguided opinion.
Mono is nowhere close to major use case of it, it has been succesfully deployed in maaaany projects.

C++ crazies denigrating GC even when it visibly fixed their issues, or maybe especially when it did, was a phenomenon since 1990. Even when code with Boehm GC ran faster - and most importantly, didn't crash all the time.

Down the line, I believe it is important to be sociable and a “nice guy” at work, but I also believe that making friends in the workplace is very dangerous.

It’s a work place, you never know what can happen, you could get fired, or hesitate to jump on a good opportunity outside of the company because you are emotionally attached to “friends”.
It doesn't matter. Attacking first or being attacked does not give you the right to level a complete city and does not give you the right to openly call for displacing a population. Israel is also actively pushing for colonization of Palestinian lands well before the war started, just like Russia was slowly trying to encroach on Ukrainian lands at first.

Even beyond the whatboutism in your comment, sure yeah, let's talk about how trying to restore old entities and states is a bad thing. But isn't that the whole premise of Zionism? It's literally the reasoning behind the Israel state backed settlements in the west bank. Somehow I guess Israeli colonialism is just different... because reasons. And somehow, it's not an act of aggression. Sure! And before you say that Gaza didn't have any colonies, well they didn't exactly because they have been aggressive (and it doesn't matter, Palestinians view themselves as a nation so it happening in the west bank is just as important for people living in Gaza).

The west bank stopped "being aggressive" and stopped the armed struggle and they have been rewarded with 2 decades of constant, blatant pushes for ever more settlements by literal lunatics and Israeli supremacists. All endorsed fully by the military and the Israeli state.
Many people will say that they made friends are work.

However, the workplace is a competitive environment and those "friendships" get a reality check when it's time to chase that promotion/raise/new position or when things go South.
I agree that making friends at work has made zero difference to my job satisfaction.

Made a hell of a lot of difference on my life satisfaction, though.
In mc, Alt-Tab or Esc+Tab two times does autocomplete for command name, but it's much easier just to press Ctrl-O and use shell in full screen, with native autocompletion by Tab, then switch back to mc by Ctrl-C + Ctrl-O. (Without Ctrl-C, mc may not be able to synchronize directories between shell and panel, which often leads to confusion).
No, you don't need to cite cliches. Nor do you need to paraphrase legislation or other technical texts so obliquely that not a single phrase of it will be detected by a text matching algorithm.

Nor do the tools have a human level understanding of what has or has not been cited properly.
No. Let me experience some small portions of my life without networking and hustle, thanks.
Weird, I haven't worked there in 5 years and still get together with different folks once every few months to once a week. Great way to find a new job too!

One should not forget that most psychologists and psychiatrists are borderline nut jobs. OK that's just personal experience, but ask anyone who knows these people... crazy drama follows them everywhere. Just sayin'.
oh i hate these too, and especially the places which completely remove the paper menus and leave only the digital version available, setting a requirement for customer to have a charged smartphone with internet connection with you. I don't even always carry my phone with me when i'm dining out, and even when i do, it can be out of battery or data plan, so it is always some asking for the freaking charger and wifi password, waiting until it have enough juice to turn on, going through public router captive menus etc before i can see the menu, absolutely outrageous feature of the new world
You don't build real friendships at work, yes. But you can definitely meet people at work that you end up building a real friendship with outside of work.
What a sad way to live. The majority of my close friendships revolve around working on or toward things together. It gives a rich context and purpose to them.
Really a shame that people like you and I are wasting time enjoying life when we could be networking, I guess.
By that standard dogecoin is a scam.
Or you go take that opportunity and bring the friend with you.
all "friendships" get a reality check quite often, at work or not..
`longjmp` does not restore the machine registers on all platforms. The C standard guarantees only the contents of variables marked `volatile`: anything above that is implementation-dependent.

I think that MSVC++ longjmp actually does proper unwinding, calling destructors in C++ functions on the stack, but don't quote me on that. I think it is also dependent on the compiler flags.
I’m sure this article makes great points too, but I had a hard time reading past this in the intro:

“As Despommier notes, the world’s cities make up two per cent of the Earth’s surface but produce sixty per cent of the planet’s greenhouse emissions.”

…as though that is some kind of “gotcha” for cities. But it’s like complaining that oceans make up only 70% of the Earth’s surface but contain almost 100% of its water! Forests cover only 30% of the land surface but contain almost all of the trees!

Cities produce 60% of the plane’s greenhouse emissions because that’s where people live, and it’s people who produce greenhouse emissions. It’s not an amazing argument for urban farming, it’s a tautology.
You can make friends at work but to keep them make sure you interact with them outside of a work context.

If they are just someone you talk to at your desk or even go to lunch or drinks after work then if either of you changes job that context is removed.

Meet up with them on weekends or evenings if you want to keep them.
70 years ago, 1954, there was no battlefield so you could not engage in "cyber warfare". The other two are better questions but mostly come down to whether the computer trusts the input. 1974? Almost certainly. 1994? fifty-fifty
It's tough to grade, but I agree.

Of all of the relationships I've built at work, maybe three qualified as true friends.

The rest: opportunists, snakes, or at best, fair-weather friends.

Nowadays... I "show up" (get online), do my work, leave.

I prefer it this way. Work has gross incentives for developing friendships.

Another version of not shitting where I eat
> But shell must be the world's most ubiquitous scripting language.

“Shell” isn’t a language. It’s a collection of languages. And not even a consistent one:

- Most BSDs don’t ship Bash as part of base. They default to ksh

- macOS does ship bash but an ancient version and defaults to Zsh

- Some Linux distorts don’t ship sh, instead symlinking to dash or bash.

- Windows doesn’t have any of the above as part of its base install.
Did you read anything I wrote? If you are going to argue, it would be worth at least researching your opinion before writing. Caps used for emphasis, not yelling.

Firstly: Copyrighted work IS THE AUTHOR'S PROPERTY. They can control it however they wish via LICENSING.

Secondly: You don't have any "fair use rights" ... there is literally NO SUCH THING. "fair use" is simply a valid legal defense WHEN YOU STEAL SOMEONE'S WORK WITHOUT THEIR PERMISSION.
learning about ctrl+r on zsh feels like magic for me -- I'm not a heavy terminal user but I am pretty comfortable with it, and like the author, I have a lot of common commands with specific flags I need to add depending on if I'm doing a push to a local repo or a public one, etc.

I like features like this that build off of how _i_ use the shell, and it's up to me to figure out how I want to use it, and it's so simple but it makes using the shell all that much more efficient and it's easier for me to express my intent to the shell. just very cool, like learning a bit of the coreutils to make every day stuff in system administration easier.
Is there a citation of Gates comment? I wasn't able to find anything
Well, there's no one comprehensive link I can suggest. But you can find plenty of links on arxiv.org for research publications on these topics. You can look at the ones from big companies like Google, Microsoft and Meta/Facebook. You can also search in Youtube for various conference talks on the same topics.
