Well they say learn the rules before you abandon them, right? Before you improvise? :)

But you cannot distinguish between an artist appropriating and misunderstanding unless you know their level of understanding, that's your limit of understanding.

So I think you need to be generous and say, "Well it could cut either way, but they're probably reappropriating it"

There's also the idea that an individual artist could be unconscious of the historic perspective -- which is okay -- but part of a movement that is conscious of that, and are, together, reappropriating that historic perspectives.

I think all of these things are happening here, but with this artist I think they're aware of this stuff - not that i care, because I'm not judging their ability to participate in art/creation or the history of brutalism based on my grading of their knowledge of art history - haha! :)

But whatever you want to lock that definition of brutalism into -- and I appreciate your perspective -- it seems that a 'brutalist' definition of brutalism would be very pared back, rather than decorative with elaborately overly specific and burdensome definitions - ha! :) not that I'm saying yours is that -- what I'm saying is brutalism's brutalist definition would be practical and incorporate the realities of how artists' work and incorporate and reinterpret historical experience over time. Would it not? Wouldn't that be in the spirit of brutalism? Or do you hope brutalism dies in a particular invocation in the past, and is always stuck there, locked to its historical forms?

I think the best way to honor it is to let it grow with the times. And I think that's what's going on here. In fact the tension created by this work, speaks I think to how much it does reference the historical territory of brutalism, and the experience invoked by that -- because were it not operating within that territory, it's unlikely so many would-be brutalists on this thread, would feel so threatened by it as to become territorial. In other words, if all it was doing was throwing the word on there lightly, with no substance, there'd be barely a whimper. It would have no impact. The fact that it's resonated indicates it's doing much more than that. Would you not say so?

It has to have, for it to have caused this lively debate about the nature of brutalism itself. This is a good thing! Hahaha! :)
The problem set groq is restricted to (known size tensor manipulation) lends itself to much easier solutions than full blown ILP. The general problem of compiling arbitrary Turing complete algorithms to the arch is NP hard. Tensor manipulation... That's a different story.
The list of supported languages is at https://sourcegraph.com/docs/cody/faq#what-programming-langu.... It works for all programming languages, but it works better on some than others, depending on the LLM and the language-specific work we've done on context-fetching, syntax-related heuristics, etc. On the LLM point, Cody supports multiple LLMs for both chat and autocomplete (Claude 3, GPT-4 Turbo, Mixtral, StarCoder, etc.), which is great for users but makes it tough to give any formal definition of "supported language".
Mature democracies don't have coups. That problem is solved.
I have tried this with an iPhone 15 Pro Max, a GoPro Hero 10, and an iPhone XS Max.

1. It doesn’t work.
2. It doesn’t damage your phone camera.

Best option is to get eclipse viewing glasses or film. Second best option is to make a pinhole projector, which work surprisingly well.
The fact that this debugger program is always available with MS-DOS or Windows 98 system means that these systems are ready for some rudimentary assembly language programming without requiring any additional tools.

PC magazines from the 80s through the 90s took advantage of this, publishing listings of "source code" that could be typed into DEBUG to create tiny but useful utilities, mostly under 1K in size. It was an era when "power users" or even moderately advanced users would often know some actual programming too and many grew into full-time developers; a stark contrast from these days when many "real" developers barely understand anything about their environment (and are incentivised not to.)
They remediate certain superfund sites with spinach leaves iirc. And I think it’s bacteria that make nutrients from inorganic sources available for the rest of us (ie rocks).

As for budget, 10M seems pretty great for what reads as a “proof of concept” level effort. You can buy a farm for ~1M and 9M left over. (They won’t do that I imagine but just to illustrate.)
Cool, then I might buy one as a non driving license holder

They're focused on services based full stack deployments afaik.

They come in with a rack and sell you on models as well.
F-Droid was mentioned in the very first comment of this thread, and all of the issues linked in github. Seems like you haven't read them, and bringing other parties into the discussion seems like a distraction.

> but opening the door to third party clients is opening the door for APTs to release backdoored Signal clients.

Signal's source code is already public. APTs (or anyone who doesn't care about violating laws) can already produce and disseminate their own builds. There are no technical protections in place to stop them - nor do I know of any which could. The only people who can't currently distribute their own builds are the law abiding good guys trying to build secure software distributions. I'm not sure why you're confused about this, but your assertion that Signal making legal allowances for third party builds adds anything to the capabilities of APTs demonstrates a misunderstanding of what is already available and the (strictly legal) limitations Signal has placed on 3rd parties with regard to distributing independently verifiable builds.

Please take some time to read and understand the github issues, instead of continuing to assert falsehoods or introduce strawmen.
Presumably, it's faster to boot and for tests because it doesn't need to access an actual file system; everything is in memory. That doesn't mean it would be any faster in production, and in fact, it wouldn't be useful in that environment even if it was.
‘Social Order Could Collapse’ in AI Era, Two Top Japan Companies Say
Unless I'm missing something, there is no causal analysis in this study.
AI doom hysteria continues on unabated.

Their claim:

"Without giving specifics, it said AI tools have already begun to damage human dignity because the tools are sometimes designed to seize users’ attention without regard to morals or accuracy."

These people seem to have not encountered the internet.
Shiny! You have you guys gotten MI300X's working for non-inference use cases?
There are many, many ways to lose a cryptographic key. There are none to restore one.

There's also the idea that Satoshi thought he was doing something altruistic and purposely destroyed the keys so he wouldn't be tempted later on... which, if true, he might be regretting now.
From the context it's nothing to do with the technology, it's the bureaucracy refusing to accept they already have the address.
> The dude invented merge sort and it's an effin' side-note to his work. Like, WAT.

Inventing merge sort is not a particularly impressive intellectual achievement.
I think there's an overly binary (perhaps engineering 0s and 1s based?) viewpoint here of people that think that brutalism is either this, or it is that. Can it not be both? More than just 0 and 1?

Can it not be more than what you imagine it to be? Can it not grow with the times? Can its forms not adapt? Its definition not encompass more than what was previously imagined?

Or do you believe it be like "the static dictionary" of art history? where everything, once established, remains unaltered forever? To me, that seems kind of ahistorical, things change and grow. Isn't that what's going on here? Hahaha! :) I think it is!
I really don't know shit about this, but systems of government being lead by the nose by courts has been the out of control absurd & wild trend of the decade.

It just seems like so much governance is encumbered & has trouble executing meanwhile one random court shopped judge can go makeup whatever rules they want.
Because that ain't Winamp.

Though neither is this thing, to be fair. This thing (ReAMP) is Russian too, so no thanks given the lack of long, reputable history unlike 7-Zip or WinRAR.
perhaps they collectively generated the private key in a way that gave none of them access to it.
Your question can be reformulated as "will the application layer's lunch be eaten by better foundation models?"
This. Being on equal-or-better footing acts as a deterrent. Same reason countries don't keep all of their warfare technologies secret, e.g. the DoD makes press releases about new technologies and will publish just enough specs for an adversary to figure out that it defeats some advantage they had thought they had.
I know what this. I just haven’t figured out to make money on it yet.

Complexity crisis. It’s happening everywhere. Boeing didn’t turn into a bad engineering company, they put a noose on their own necks because they could. Navy is doing the same thing.

Everyone is. That is the real reason we have toasters and teapots on the internet.
I understand everyone's experience may be different. To me there very much is. YMMV! Hahahaha! :)

I guess...is it impossible for you to look through the lens that perhaps there is something brutalist about it?
If you're an immigrant from a (north-)African country or maybe a country like Turkey, it's very easy to live like that.

I once was in financial hardship due to a depression and wanted to apply for welfare. When I visited the local government office to apply for welfare, probably 90% of people were from African countries.

The local government made it complicated for me to apply for welfare, so eventually I gave up and found other help (through family) to get my life back on track. But I am sure, for most people applying from African countries, they will not encounter many obstacles when applying for welfare.

Another thing that bothered me regarding Dutch government ... Many years later I spent a holiday in Thailand. I met my girlfriend there. We stayed together, got a daughter. When I wanted to visit The Netherlands with my girlfriend and daughter, it was a very complicated and expensive process to get my girlfriend and daughter to come on over.

While, again, people from African countries don't need papers and all to get access to the country (perhaps it's even beneficial to have no passport is such cases, as I've heard of immigrants throwing their passport away (or hiding) when moving to EU countries, perhaps to prevent background and age checks.

And I wouldn't be surprised if people from African countries would be able to get a Dutch passport in a shorter amount of time and with less effort compared to my Thai girlfriend.
I think back to 2009 and think of the state of opsec back then and I think people could very much use ridiculously traceable names for something like Bitcoin.
> Every other treatment I've ever seen for describing the Soviet computing and internet development has always just been a lazy "well it wasn't innovative like silicon valley"

It depends on the decade and if we're are talking about the Soviet Union, keeping in mind that Warsaw Pact countries also had their own trajectories and specifics, like the article mentions. By the 1970s the Soviets themselves realized they were lagging behind, and decided to mostly "borrow" Western designs. So it isn't just us judging them from an orange forum years later, it was a judgement they came to on their own at that time. In the end they were cloning the computer systems of the West, not vice-versa. And, if we know anything about the Soviets, is they did not like to lose face. Everything from space to sports was always them showing off their superiority, so the decision to concede and start copying computer systems designed by the "evil capitalists" likely wasn't done lightly.
I've probably gone as far down the rabbit hole researching this topic as any lay person can, after running into some pretty major "not living up to my potential" issues in my 20s (I was assessed as not diagnosable as ADHD or ASD by a psychiatrist, but I still seemed to be affected by at least some of the symptoms related to those conditions).

I've been as willing as anybody to believe theories (long commonplace among alt-med communities) like "it's antibiotics", "it's candida yeast" (or insert any other bacterial/fungus/parasite/virus species you can point to), "it's the effect of vaccines on the microbiome", "it's due to microbial dysbiosis in utero".

And after nearly 20 years of researching/contemplating/experimenting, I just find myself thinking "there's no singular, simple explanation or solution". And really, nor should there be; the body is a highly complex system.

Microbiome matters – but there's plenty of stuff you can do to improve it. Metals (mercury, lead, etc) and other environmental toxins (PFAS and other endocrine disruptors [1]) matter – but they can be detoxified over time via some fairly safe and non-invasive techniques. Inflammation matters a lot – and all kinds of things to do with diet, allergens, microbiome influence that. Genetics matter – but probably less than we presume, once all the other factors are considered and addressed (and it's probably more a case of genetic expression in response to stressors, rather than anything hard-coded/deterministic).

A big perspective-shift for me was finding that emotions and trauma matter a huge amount. This is the least-researched and discussed, both in mainstream and the alt-med circles, but in my own experience, nothing has made a bigger difference to my life outcomes (including physiological symptoms like inflammation) than regularly practicing techniques that identify and release deeply-held emotional complexes.

It can seem like an implausible, fringe theory until you think about it this way: if a person is perpetually traumatised, they can be in a "fight/flight/freeze" state, which takes up much of the body's energy and resources, instead of that being directed to healthy immunity (dealing with harmful microbes and allergens), digestion, metabolism, detoxification, tissue repair/growth etc.

And just to confound things even further, having to deal with an unhealthy microbiome in utero or early life can be a cause of trauma (just as it can be in later life when an infection like Epstein Barr can lead to CFS/ME).

I know this all seems very nebulous and speculative; it's taken me a long time to get my head around, but my takeaway after all this time is that to correct these kinds of conditions, these factors all need to be addressed in parallel: emotions, microbiome, toxicity, diet/nutrition.

I'm quite sure there will be no complete understanding and remedy for conditions like ASD and ADHD that doesn't incorporate all these factors.

The fact that none of the original BTC has been transferred is more than enough proof that whoever Satoshi is is dead. There's no other explanation, especially after this generationally significant amount of money it's worth.
What would it take to get this on modern (or even last generation) phone hardware?

I bet we could do everything we want with tremendous simplicity and out of this world battery life... Probably would make a PinePhone feel like a Rolls Royce.
150 countries, but missing a lot of key ones like the US, Israel, Russia, and China. (They absolutely should sign this, though).

I’m suspicious that all it will take is one major shock for the house of cards that is international law to come tumbling down just like it did before WW2.
I think it was their lack of vertical integration that did it. there were too many pieces that every developer needed to do, that made it really hard to make apps for it. compare that to the app store where Apple just takes a 30% cut, which is steep, but they do things for that 30%. On the consumer end of things, the actually affordable data plan with att at launch, which is more vertical integration, rather than letting the carriers do their thing, is what did it, imo.
It really whips the llama’s ass
All About Berlin, a few hundred guides about settling in Germany and navigating the bureaucracy there. It blows my mind that so many people know about the website, even here on HN. I've never been on the receiving end of so much goodwill before, and it's intoxicating.

My most useful project is arguably the Bürgeramt appointment finder, which makes a sound when it finds an appointment, saving the need to refresh the page every 3 minutes for hours.

My most used project is a simplified tax calculator. It was just meant to give people an idea of their take-home salary, but it became the most popular page on the website. I really need to keep improving it.

I just love working on this project, in large part because the readership is amazing and the work conditions are unbeatable. The only downside is the constant exposure to what is wrong with Germany.
fascinatedbox, bonk. this person has great names. I hope they can offer their version of a renaming of MacOS releases to avoid the blandish (tho triumphal and majestic, to be sure) Californiaisms. For instance what would this person call MacOS 12, 13, 14?

I hate to defend Israel’s work week here, because it sucks to an unimaginable extent, but while you’re free not to observe Jewish holidays in Israel, unless you’re lucky to live in one of a handful of places you’ll struggle heavily to get anything done on Fri or Sat. If you try, you’ll find nothing works during most of that time including public transport—except for Friday morning when you’re going to have to scramble to get stuff done so you don’t run out of food before Sunday morning. On Yom Kippur, even driving around in your own car is going to get you fined. And, of course, nearly nothing managed by the governments works on the weekend or holidays, except for the military.

(I wouldn’t put it past the intelligence services to keep working during official holidays as a form of obfuscation, mind you. I just wanted to point out that it isn’t as straightforward a deal as Christians—or atheists for that matter—existing: Israel sure makes daily life hard for them.)
Contrary to all the fawning in this thread I can only say the somewhat obvious that if you were alive then you'd too think that was a reasonable thing for you to do.
Besides the limitations others have mentioned users should be aware that since ydotool works by writing events directly into /dev/uinput the input will go to whatever happens to be focused at the moment. It will happily type your secrets into a chat window if you move the mouse at the wrong time.

There is no way to do the equivalent of xdotool type --window 0x600005 "my important input"
> Are large operators writing their own dns servers, but badly?

Yes. It is trivial to build a DNS server, and near impossible to write a correct DNS server. Eventually your organization gets large enough that someone thinks it is a good idea without understanding the implications.

> you would be able to detect which software nameservers are running, each with known capabilities

There are pseudo-standards for asking an authoritative server what software it is running, but everyone turns that off because somehow it makes you "more secure." What you end up having to do is probe auth servers by replaying user queries on the side, measuring if the responses you get are correct, and then keeping a database somewhere of which servers support which flags.
I like it! Great presentation of the idea. Monthly subscription puts me off though. Would you offer a per photo payment? Test the website on a bad connection too, the image carousel performance isn't optimised for low connection.
Wouldn't requiring that "cable runs" "meet spec" impose efficiency?

(for the definition of efficiency that is worth caring about anyway)
Of course, you still need the worst case when they overlap to meet performance requirements, and you just made testing that that much harder.
I guess the issue is that being able to articulate what is the frontier problems of any field requires a certain amount of jargon and technical knowledge.

I think one can learn math and physics without being at the frontier. One can appreciate the beauty of solutions of classical problems by discussing the problem in a historical context.
At some point you have to put more trust into your home network than you would a public network. Not as far as accepting all communications, obviously, but in the sense that you have to open ports and services in order to accept incoming authentication requests and subsequent authenticated connections.

A locked door is weaker than a stone wall, after all. You're trusting that it's safe to have a locked door than a stone wall.
This makes me want to buy some Hytera two-way radios!
German solo-founder here who just gave up this shitshow and moved to Estonia:

> Estimate your revenue at 0€ for now unless you have real reason to believe otherwise (do you have paying customers lined up already? probably not). That way, you only have to pay corporate tax at the end of the year based on your actual profit (vs. having to prepay tax every quarter).

This is funny. I tried to set my revenue to 0 in the beginning and the tax authority simply set it to 60k (they couldn't even tell me where this number came from).
After a couple of harsh phone calls (from their end, they were yelling) they simply kept it and told me I could file a "Verwaltungsklage". Of course, they (and IHK) derive the quarterly pre-taxes from that and didn't give a rats ass if I actually made any revenue. I got my money back a year later (which got worse and worse over time). Simply kills you, If you have to pay the bills and try to route your little boat through the stormy seas. Several times I spontaneously had to credit 2-3k EUR to get my customers to shorten the term of payment.

> IHK: Domains are not allowed.

This is funny as well because my company name was a domain name. IHK noticed that and I told them (on phone w/o any proof) that it's mine and they were okay.

The rest, I'd say is batshit crazy bureaucratic but somehow manageable. Germany is just not a good spot for "some SaaS idea" or maybe not even for bigger ideas as well anymore. At least not until they radically streamline their bureaucracy (which depends on radically professionalized politics which is not realistic at this time).

PS: Founding a company made me stop believing in "Social Market Economy" (German self-label) since the taxation system and social systems allow for amazing things once you're out of the employee system.

Edit: Typos and grammatical mistakes.
