Sorry if that wasn't clear. I didn't mean that artists are less skilled today, but that realism and technical skill are generally considered less important today than in the past. "Top" artists today are usually not considered so because they have amazing technical skills at drawing/painting/etc. The metrics for success are a bunch of other things I won't get into here, but hyperrealistic portraits aren't typically considered to be art worthy of being in Gagosian and Hauser & Wirth (two of the top contemporary art galleries.) Whereas they would have been in the era of say, Dürer.

Video games, movies, etc. typically do care more about skill and realism, but they're a different thing from "fine art", i.e., art in art galleries.

> Yes, maybe hobbyists can play with this, but they cannot form communities, they cannot share wisdom, they can't sell boards to each other, they can't even talk about the protocol or spec on detail.

But it just says you can't ship products and talking isn't shipping a product. The only part I see there is what if you sell things built on it.

Like sure it could be more open and sure having some small business exemption would be good but that's not the same as not being allowed to just make some stuff and talk about it.

It's seems pretty clear-cut to me:

Q: What Would Prevent A Company From Shipping A Product Based On OpenThread Without Joining The Thread Group?

A: (roughly) You will be sued

Now, what does the word "product" in "Shipping a product based on OpenThread" mean?

A product is any (or some combination of) the following:

1. A devkit

2. A book

3. A blog post

4. Any hardware that uses Thread

So, yeah, you can't write a tutorial for using Thread, or make a doorbell for your mum's house, or tell your friend how to read the protocol, or start up a /r/thread community to help each other use it.

Looks pretty damned locked down to me, without at least the FRAND loopholes.

In my back garden in london initially it felt like maybe I was just seeing remnants of having looked at a lightbulb and then looking at the sky. After a bit of eyes adjusting the pinks were very clear and the white streaks like rays of light you see in those kind of beams from heaven type pictures. The green was more on the horizon and initially needed the camera to show it at all, and then again after a while I could see feint green with the naked eye. Yes the camera showed it more, but the naked eye experience was also magical and I feel very lucky to have seen it on bbc news website by chance before going to bed. I watched it from 11:15pm to midnight when it seemed to vanish as if it was never there in the first place. I feel like I caught the ISS in a photo too but I can’t find definitive information it was overhead at 11:51pm uk time, so it probably wasn’t.
At least we have wikipedia.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_(network_protocol)

>Thread is an IPv6-based, low-power mesh networking technology for Internet of things (IoT) products.[1] The Thread protocol specification is available at no cost; however, this requires agreement and continued adherence to an End-User License Agreement (EULA), which states that "Membership in Thread Group is necessary to implement, practice, and ship Thread technology and Thread Group specifications."[2]
I think it'll continue as long as high-end artworks are financial instruments. There is a lot of money invested in the idea that a painting by X well-known artist is worth millions and will continue to be worth millions.

That said, the art market is currently way down, and just anecdotally I feel like a lot of New Money (especially tech money) isn't that interested in art as much as the previous rich oligarchs were, so it may simply become less popular over time.
Such an overused word and in this context it's not even relevant.
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40280080 and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40051514 for instance. The latter was briefly on page 1 or 2, I think.
What do you think they mean by this:

> Membership in Thread Group is necessary to implement, practice, and ship Thread technology and Thread Group specifications.
You're talking to the question, but the answer is even more conservative & scary than the question posed,

> are not conferred the IP rights required to practice and ship Thread technology,

Under this, it sounds like one isn't even allowed to dabble with Thread without $7.5k/year membership. You aren't allowed to practice is the words they respond with, which seems far more constraining than shipping.

Re-quoting the licensing agreement requires to download the spec,

> view, download, save, reproduce and use the Specification solely for your own internal purposes

> are not conferred the IP rights required to practice and ship Thread technology,

> Membership in Thread Group is necessary to implement, practice, and ship Thread technology and Thread Group specifications.

So yeah, actually it seems like even doing hobbyist things by yourself & telling no one is still far more than Thread group allows.

Fuck Thread! It's just so unbelievably shitty having the connected device technologies of our world be un-practiceable by mere mortals.

An unexpected detour into partially symbolic, sparsity-expoiting autodiff

I think the reason for having the permissions for all sites is for when you want to use the instant replay feature on the off chance and you realise that there were no permissions enabled for the specific domain.

If she is right in her assessment despite the wording, and these rights are something like a security vulnerability for societies, limiting them is not the only option. You can as well decide to use compensating controls (education, minimum age for social media, more bot control, limiting foreign agents access - not endorsing any of this, just some examples I heard elsewhere. This would thwart the ability without changing the rights it seems, which shows they are something different), or accept the risk tied to them as lesser than the gains.
It is such a surprise when economics and philosophy of morality end up proving that it was a moral duty of large tech companies and billionaires to become filthy rich. Those people were working for the good of humanity all along, we just didn't look at the data close enough to get it.

A cleanroom process is evidence that you reimplemented without copying, but that's not enough to avoid infringing a patent.

Also, the abstract algebra definition is an actual generalization, because the (analysis) derivative acts as a linear operator in the vector space of (suitably smooth) funtions. It blew my mind when I first encountered this way of looking at derivatives. And from there, it makes complete sense to look at operators with similar properties in other vector spaces.

The definition presented here is a loose analogy to derivatives rather than an actual generalization, which doesn't fully justify using the name IMO.
Same goes for the gambling mechanics they build into their games. What they planned to do with Star Wars Battlefront 2 was the final straw for me and I've been happily boycotting them ever since.
It's an interesting comparison. I agree that five years is well within the expected period of viability of an operating system. Some points to consider:

- any given release of a Linux distro will probably work on hardware released five years earlier -- one factor that reduces the cost of upgrading the OS (there are many more obvious factors)

- Microsoft is highly motivated to get customers to upgrade to the new Windows at the time. The legacy support is well-known as a "bone" (or: "a factor that reduces the cost of upgrading the OS")

- binary backwards/forwards compatibility is less of an issue in an environment that doesn't treat source code as a secret

- why run old versions of software? In other words: xterm is older than Windows and also as new as Windows

Also, I've always found it amusing that I have much less trouble running old windows software on a Linux (wine) than on new versions of windows.
I totally agree with you actually, but HN is pretty socialist these days and karma would go to negative in zero time.
This might be a feature fit for the pro tiers. I would really like it for our QA testers who'd want to include that information but still aren't that technical to know all the places to look for that information.

Insurance is positive-sum because the value-generating enterprise (the buyer) gets to continue generating value after the unexpected thing happen.

White bread is actually super easy to colonize for mold, even a bit of mold is a near guarantee that the rest is moldy - just not with spores.

There is something deeply, viscerally upsetting about watching creative objects get destroyed by an industrial machine. I understand what they were going for, but I can't believe this got greenlighted.

The symbolism of physically destroying a handmade instrument or a precision-made item like a camera lens is unbelievably disgusting. On top of that, the current era we're in has artists fearing for the future as generative AI (which is trained on stolen artwork by humans) is coming to replace their livelihood.

All I can do is shake my head and wonder why tech people have such utter contempt and disdain for artists.

Interesting expectations. So you expect the new guy to be famously better than anyone already at the firm. Highly experienced in something 0.0001% of developers ever actually do.

Kinda out of context, but it's funny how I played with my kid for years around computers, games, code camps and so on since he was 3yo - now at 20 he has no interest whatsoever in "coding" but is absolutely absorbed by chemistry - now in pharmacology in university. Anyway, cheers on the project - kids and the time we spend with them is so important.

No, on average, GUIs are simply better for most people than TUIs. Now if you cannot accept that elementary fact, there is nothing more to discuss with you, as we have wholly different world experiences. Having accepted that, TUIs are better than GUIs by some margin. Now, I can empirically show that there is a better benefit to TUIs than GUIS such that if you don't believe it, (wherever you seem to be in the Islamic world, I pity you) thank you, and have a good day.

It is kind of relevant, we have zigbee. Which is a bit quirky, along comes Thread that promises to make it more open, better compatibility between vendors and more modern. If it turns out that big companies use Thread in a way to oppose those goals then I feel that is an attempt to enshittify the entire home-automation ecosystem.

Which must be the holy grail of enshittification, I mean it is one thing to make your own product/service worse. But to make everyones products worse? Jackpot!

Then don't use this or teach it. Don't build for it. Isolate it. Let
it die. Cut off its supply. Make it irrelevant. Exclude it from
connectivity options by default, out of caution. It seems pointless to
complain that you can't have a bite of the poison fruit.

But also make sure others know. Actively warn and discourage other
developers away from that technology. Make "Threads" regret their lack
of openness.
I my naive mind, if you can differentiate a number than you should be able to integrate it. So what then is the integral of a number?

if I(n) is the integral of n, then shouldn't I(D(n)) == n?

But if D(prime) = 1, then what prime is the answer to I(1) ??

If this can't be done, then what were doing here isn't differentiation as I understand it. So why call this the derivative of a number? Why not call it something else?
Comments on the OEIS sequence D(n) are insteresting: https://oeis.org/A003415.
One in particular points out that if we take the prime factorization of n = p0*p1*...*pk, where the pi aren't necessarily distinct, then over the reals

lim (p0+h)(p1+h)...(pk+h) - p0*p1*...*pk
D(n) = h->0 ------------------------------------ .
h

This motivates the D(p)=1 definition, meaning we can take D to be defined just by the Leibniz rule. (Note that D(1) = D(1*1) = 1*D(1) + D(1)*1 = 2*D(1), implying that D(1)=0, so that part of the definition is redundant.)

Others have pointed out that the definition also works for any unique factorization domain, and in the case of polynomials, the Leibniz rule guarantees D agrees with the standard derivative, which is also a nice sanity check.
One-show-stop for anyone curious about your quirks and nuances
was building a platform where you can showcase all your weird collections, hunts, grabs. this becomes a one-show-stop for anyone curious about your quirks and nuances

and it's ready

it is where the meaning of your endeared items are forever engraved for the world or yourself to come back to, as you like, whenever you desire

you can literally store anything that is dear to you: polaroid photos, concert posters, tea cups, fountain pens, matchbooks, mineral specimens, vinyl toys, enamel pins, perfume bottles, video games, wristwatches, surfboards, skateboards, basketball jerseys, holiday ornaments, old letters, art supplies, vintage ads, puzzle collections, wine corks

literally anything you desire

all of us are so stylish and have some quirky ensembles and accessories and home decors and we are all brimming with so many unique artistic vibes that are unrepresented via just text

because sometimes these texts just have so less penetration power and exposure surface because texts occasionally get boring for people

i built this because it doesn't exist through pinterest or anywhere else and i wanna see all the intellectual and emotionally stimulating hunts and grabs people have—plus the collection story or collecting process behind it

and miraclo is a place where you can not just share what you posses, but what you also plan to posses

every item at our home or in our collection tells a story to a degree we do not realize until someone shows interest or asks about it

and every item at our home or in our collection is cherished to a degree we do not realize until we have to let it go
