I was one of those people who got into online dating just at the transition from "Only weirdo losers do online dating" -> "The only way to meet anyone is online dating".

So for about two years, I was there, on OKC as sooooo many brand new people discovered it, in a huge city, in my mid-twenties. It was an incredible time. I met so, so many interesting people, who were so similar to me. I couldn't believe it. It was all free, too.

No lasting relationships ever came from it. I met my partner of 10 years at work eventually.

I've never been on Tinder or any other online dating platform, but it sounds like the industry (it is now an industry...) has gone through the same cycle of VC-driven monetisation, removing all incentive for the platform to function correctly in the user's interest, much like any big platform nowadays.

So, I guess we'll need some kind of online dating fediverse to fix this. I'd recommend copying exactly how OKC worked. It was the best approach I've ever seen. But also the only one ;)
I'm curious to learn more about this heuristic and how the database leverages it for indexing. What does right-leaning mean formally and what does analysis of the data structure look like in that context? Do variants like B+ or B* have the same charactersistics?
Video, he says

1. The next frame is easy, but multiple frames is not

2. What works for text doesn't work for video.

Then Sora comes out and shows multiple frames and someone tweets gotcha.

He then tweets without saying he misspoke ..... goes on about the model doesn't understand physics.

And his project, V-JEPA, is the best

He keeps saying stuff about "sucks as a mental model" but doesn't say why that would not apply to text.

Me: If text doesn't need a mental model, I see no reason video needs it. His argument sucks or is badly worded.
human actors end up as 2d pixels on a screen so its not clear there is a huge difference in the end.

Sony was always heavily involved with optical discs, like Qualcomm is with phone modems. 44.1kHz sampling rate of audio CD famously comes from components reused from one particular Sony product that predates CD.

No it isn't obvious. Calculators didn't replace 100% of mathematicians and accountants.
The market will grow, the economy will grow, there will be more prosperity and the people will want even more thing/services. There will be new type of jobs.
And don't assume AI will be able to do anything just because now it can do something that was considered impossible.

This proposed revival must constitutionally prohibit selling or sharing of the question response data in a way that an acquirer cannot undo. Match group, upon buying OkCupid, ended up providing question response user data to third-parties, which caused many people to immediately delete their accounts and never trust any product from Match Group ever again.

Laws of nature are not prescriptive: they only predict what will happen. It is up to us to fend off consequences we don't want, by whatever means we can muster. The law means that calling out non-promises in the name is favored. But that is often not practical.
Reliability of 3.5mm vs phone jacks is probably pretty similar (500-1000 cycles?), 1/4” jacks, at least the good ones like Neutrik, brag about >10k cycles. I think there’s a reason audio patch panels used either 1/4” or Lemo. I expect far more reliable contact from RJ preloaded contact springs compared to 3.5mm, which are noisy when disturbed even when new.

You could use 4P4C, the handset connector, instead of RJ11/6P4C, the phone line connector. Reasonably common, and no risk of ever plugging in a phone line.
If you were genuinely remotely hacking a smartwatch, you’d be executing background processes to exfiltrate data entirely invisible to the user, not doing some bizarre remote desktop thing randomly tapping around on apps. The claim doesn’t pass the sniff test irrespective of the manufacturer.

Basically everything in comment is factually wrong so...

Edit:

Nuclear is more expensive than wind and solar, based on auction prices for projects since 2017 (?). Nuclear net capacity gains are miniscule for decades now, and will for decades. Most new reactors replace old obes. At the same time glovally more wind and solar capacity is installed in a month than nuclear in more than a year (look up the numbers for yourself).

Anti-nuclear movements were a result from Chernobyl, and they were, violently at times, oppossed by govenrments. The reason why not more goes into juclear projects is easy: the ROI is too low.

I mean, don't they have border disagreements and sometimes clashes with their bordering countries?

Their attitude towards Hong Kong and Taiwan are both pretty fucked up, to say the least.

For the water based part of their border, they're famously pulling transparently dumb shit with the nearby nations:

I've been doing CSS for 20 years, Tailwind indeed lives up to the hype. Just the fact that amount of CSS code you need to send down the wire stops scaling linearly with each new component is a big benefit in its own right.
This whole thread is filled with terrible advice and wannabe Snow-Crash writers, plus people who think "hackers" are scrolling through your files just to get to your fitness files.

I am kind of shocked, that state of mind was acceptable around 95-2000, but not a quarter millennium later.

I for sure live i a bubble, but are people really like that?
The popularity of tailwind isn't because of their marketing. Many colleagues using tailwind don't even care or have heard about the claims in your article. It's popular because it solves a real world problem for small to medium sites. It challenges "best practices" by showing that those in fact are just very opinionated and don't solve real world problems for many sites. I've witnessed over 2 decades of css evolution and tailwind is by far the most elegant solution for developers just needing some style for their app that works.
I think one of the things that needs to be said about Sora is the videos that examples that we've seen have been impressive, but this is also how most of OpenAI's examples have been on marketing pages. What matters is when you yourself are actually able to use it. In the past, it was only when I've actually been able to try the tech myself that I've been able to see how successful (or unsuccessful) they really are for doing real work.
AI will also eliminate 90% of the audience. I certainly don't see myself queuing up to watch any AI-produced or -enhanced movie. TBH, they lost me much longer time ago, but I assume it will be a larger transition.
It's not just inline styles. Idk why so many people comment on these threads with no experience using the framework.

Lots of tech people seem to dislike Tinder. I want to present an argument in favour of the 'swipe and match' model: If your personality is 'stronger' than your appearance, in terms of attracting a partner, this model is actually highly optimal. Think of optimising a database query to maximise selectivity: You want to narrow the search space as quickly as possible. If finding a partner who is physically attracted to you is hard, then everyone who actually does match with you has cleared that hurdle. Lots of tech people seem to idealise OkCupid, but it's really a better use of your effort to swipe/match than sending personalised messages to many people on OkCupid, only for a large amount of recipients to reject you on account of your appearance.
Migrating primary keys from int to bigint is feasible. Requires some preparation and custom code, but zero downtime.

I'm managing a big migration following mostly this recipe, with a few tweaks: http://zemanta.github.io/2021/08/25/column-migration-from-in...

FKs, indexes and constraints in general make the process more difficult, but possible. The data migration took some hours in my case, but no need to be fast.

AFAIK GitLab has tooling to run tasks after upgrade to make it work anywhere in a version upgrade.
Try killing a cop who is threatening you at a traffic stop, and see how that works out for you.

You'll quickly discover that your state also has some hard limits on that right, they are just drawn at different points than the states that you mistakenly think don't have a right to 'self-defense'. You can defend yourself anywhere, you just can't always kill people in 'self-defense' when you have other options available to you.

(Related question: Does your state have a right to body autonomy, or is it in blatant violation of the fourth amendment?)
Speaking as someone who has done VFX professionally, I think Sora is closer about 30% there. It's really not constituted in a way that makes it easy to combine with existing techniques. You either need to come up with a way to make them play nicely together or you have to recreate the entire production pipeline in the model.

It'll get better, but I don't think they've been aiming in the right direction if the goal is to replace current production methods.
Lack of opportunities for casual social interactions has got to be a killer for the introverted who work in sausage-fest industries, especially remote workers. If you can find satisfaction elsewhere, the increasingly high hurdle of initiating a relationship in this day and age no longer feels worth it. It comes down to a cost-benefit analysis, not a binary decision about wanting or not wanting a relationship.

Perhaps there is more to hack? At least when I was 20 years old, the only thing to be hacked was the dial-phone, a paper phonebook and perhaps a fax. Social media didn't exist.

Wddbfs – Mount a SQLite database as a filesystem
I think the crux of the issue is, the separation of HTML from css came from an era when we were styling documents, nowadays we're increasingly styling webapps.

For me personally, I've rarely had a design to implement that didn't require a bunch of scaffolding html to conform to the design, css alone was never enough. But that means for all but the most trivial of changes you will need to touch the html and the css.

So the question becomes, is it worth maintaining that separation?

My experience has been that most sites get built, get signed off on, run for some number of years before the site get redesigned and rebuilt, we're rarely making changes to a site that are just simple like the colour of something, all that was decided during development, most of it was signed off on during the design phase even.

So I think that's the angle Tailwind fans take, if the point of separating css from html is to allow for easy changes to the design, but those changes are either never required or can't be achieved via css alone, what's the point? Better to go inline because the development process is quicker and easier.
The "by any means necessary" method...? I think a society based around the normalization of this level of punishment is distopian. Achieving the lowest opiate addiction rate possible may not be worth it given the probability of wrongful incarceration/death, its optimising the wrong thing. I think humanity should just accept the multi-facetedness of the universe and work on systems which work without compromising our humanity. We are hooked on mental shortcuts and quick fixes.
I would be interested how to move away from react. Either you write a lot of wrappers and not using the react-* libs at all and put in extra effor all way long, or it is quite hard, isn't it?
Are you sure about that? Only federal offices have a baked in requirement that voters be citizens. On the municipal level many west coast cities have opened up local elections to all residents regardless of citizenship. I don't know about Berkeley specifically (its been close to 20 years since I went to school there) but its neighbors Oakland[1] and SF[2] both have opened at least some local elections to non-citizen residents.

Like I said, I don't know the answer and while I made a token effort to check, Berkeley city code actually seems somewhat difficult to find from a first party source. Just want to make sure this wasn't an off the cuff remark.

> removing all incentive for the platform to function correctly in the user's interest, much like any big platform nowadays.

People keep saying this, but it's just not true. Tinder does function in many people's interest. I had a lot of success using Tinder, and eventually met my wife on there. People keep implying there's some kind of hidden algorithm at play that somehow pairs you up with people who are "Okay, but not great" to keep you hooked on the app. How the hell would it manage such an amazing feat?

The problem is that Hollywood doesn't really care. They live on making compromises during shoots, and if they can save hundreds of thousands as well as dozens of hours and manpower on a scene, they will do it (and they do all the time with horrible CGI, poorly shot scenes, etc...), and they aren't the only industry that will do this.

Isn't this a problem for Hollywood itself? Isn't the strength of Hollywood the capital to hire good actors and effects people etc?

You seem to be assuming that Hollywood will just fire all the actors and save money, but to me it seems more like Hollywood is in the danger zone too?

There might be no ideal, but it's very much preferable that everyone has a good run and nobody has to kill their kids or die of pneumonia at 20 or some such.

A good way is to put in on bio powered power plants. So you grow trees etc in dedicated areas, which remove co2 from the air. You harvest it for centrally burning for energy and co2 capture. In the meantime you grow new trees etc at the harvest locations. Do this at scale. It makes money, energy and results in a net co2 loss.

Obviously you can also make systems to do direct air capture, but that is much more expensive, you'll need wind turbines because of low co2 density in air, and it won't make money. So just using trees on large areas is probably hard to beat.

Perspective from another not primarily js/ts dev: in this context, js is the equivalent of a .jar full of .class files. Instead of a -sources.jar you'd have a sourcemap. The original typescript would be more like a repository dump, and chances are the build depends heavily on an exotic fork of python or something equally unexpected.
> JIT is a large attack surface because of how JIT works.

From the point of view of the OS, a 3rd party application using JIT can't do anything more than a 3rd party application not using JIT, which Apple have to allow anyway.

And still it's laughable that the only "mitigation" Apple found was to remove a feature that most people didn't even know about (because Apple made it difficult to even access in the first place!). That surely will have an impact on the security of the 2 people that knew about that feature.

By the way, why isn't MacOS so insecure if it allows all sorts of 3rd party apps, with or without JIT, and even allow apps creating shortcuts on the desktop themselves?

> When there is only browser - Apple can easily push an emergency patch. With 3rd party browsers this isn't possible.

Lot of people don't immediately apply OS updates, and Safari is part of the OS so it cannot be updated in other ways. 3rd party browsers instead can be very quickly updated like any normal apps without even requiring a reboot of the OS. It seems to me that a competent 3rd party app has a better security model than Safari.
I’m just surprised that the process can successfully eat all of the memory so badly that the OS actually dies. I thought there was protection for stuff like that.

If you were paying attention... that's exactly what ape_key was referring to. The problem under discussion is that very similar inputs to the game logic lead to radically different states of the game at a later time. The nondeterminism is what gives rise to the fact that the inputs are "very similar" rather than "identical".
