Fine artists who are known in the international art market do not take commissions. They also do not give buyers of a piece copyright (obviously both of these things are even more true if they are dead).

You also wouldn't be able to distinguish a fake painted for a few thousand dollars, much less so with a print or digital art, so the physical artifact is somewhat meaningless as well, at least as far as value goes. Collectors buy pieces and keep them in storage. They might buy a piece without ever laying eyes on the physical artifact.

The art market has always run on provenance and certificates of authenticity. You could argue that fine art is bullshit, and you can also that a blockchain is not necessary to keep track of certificates of authenticity, but arguing that the entire concept of art ownership without copyright is bullshit is to ignore what the reality of the art market has always been.
No mention of Bimini Road. Nor Edgar Cayce's predictions. Nor the selling of futures when Atlantis arose.

AIUI the point of HFT isn't to trade frequently, but rather to change offer/bid prices in the smallest possible steps (small along both axes) while waiting for someone to accept the offer/bid.
GPT is great at this. I wrote a little program that I can call from a shell. Bashai.py show me a bash one liner that does x. It then shows me the command and asks if I want to run it with or without root. Simple, yet one of the best tools I've ever made for myself.
The conspiracy/speculation on every damn topic around here is getting out of hand.
Not Everyone Has an Inner Voice Streaming Through Their Head
I don't know what claim you think I'm making that you inferred from my 5 sentences, but it's really simple. Do you agree or disagree that humans make mistakes on logical deduction?

I certainly hope you agree, in which case it follows that a person's understanding of any proposition, inference or deduction is only probabilistic with some certainty less than one. When they believe or make a mistake in deduction, they are going through the motions of applying logic without actually understanding what they're doing, which I suppose you could whimsically call "hallucinating". A person will typically continue to repeat this mistaken deduction until someone corrects them.

So if our only example of "reasoning" seems to share many of the same properties and flaws as LLMs, albeit at a lower rate, and that correcting this Paragon of reasoning is basically what we also do with LLMs (have them review their own output or check it against another LLM), this claim to human specialness starts to look a lot like special pleading.
Hi all, I built a website to discover Podcast Clips: http://podfeed.app. Ive tried a ton of different marketing method (SEO, Reddit, Youtube, etc) but find it hard to get exposure. Can anyone share advice on how to market this site?
still dont get it. are you saying the former is susceptible to layering attacks where they get people to drop their guard? or that the latter which is secretive is to conceal its actual use
Shielding receivers is easy, and modern ones are pretty good, but cheap old radios often are not RF-quiet.
The target image would need to reset that field so that a second reboot puts you back into the bootloader because otherwise you'll be stuck booting that image forever.
If you have to force people to turn it on, maybe it sucks and you shouldn't waste your time developing it.
It's important not to lump all 'publishers' in a single bucket here. The big 4-5 fight new models, but many outside of those are happy to try different models. See the many publishers who deliver DRM free files or work with libraries using flat rate models.
Not sure to be honest, I guess they talk about it as a photo editing suite, I mean their tagline is "The photo editor you’ve been dreaming of" which makes me think of it as an alternative to Lightroom.

I wouldn't call photoshop much of a photo editor as it was never very good at it either with the RAW workflow, more of a generalized drawing/editing tool I guess?
I'd use this to do a quick and dirty localization, but quality localization is hard and expensive even for skilled humans. For example, see Super Mario RPG for SNES's localization which had a bunch of idioms and references to other games and anime go over the localizers' heads and become non-sensical phrases in English ("キイーッウキイーーッ！ あの時の赤んぼう！？", a reference to Yoshi's Island became "That's...my child?" which makes no sense)
The grandparent is implying that "Taylor Swift" and the "Evil Manager" are two sides of the same coin; they don't need to even be different people. The system lets a (big) artist extract value while keeping their public image clean. It's a shell game, and Ticketmaster plays the role of bad-guy-as-a-service.

Of course, their insane monopoly means they also get to take advantage of smaller artists, venues etc. None of this is good.
I used to like simpleanalytics.com but their site has been very slow lately.
They could be used by TicketMaster for tickets. That’s about the most realistic use case I could come up with.
Yes, that's all true.

But none of that somehow makes this side of the pond the same as the other side of the pond.

An idea that works in one place doesn't necessarily work in the other.
The price movement does indeed overwhelm the spread. Half the time it goes up, half the time down.
The Gradle team seem to come from the school of developers that aggressively break backward compatibility as if it's a best practice. Cynically I always feel like it must give them a bump in consulting revenue each time, because it often feels gratuitous. They literally just seem to rename or shuffle things around for the fun of it. Plugins are especially brittle between versions, so I will spend hours trying to find a magic combo of gradle version, plugin version and java version that will work across a multi-project build.
I have used ubuntu for 2 years now, and its the motivation for the post.

Ubuntu (or really any distro I am aware of) is great for pensioners (email readers) and power users (career linux user), with a protracted and hellishly complicated experience in between (technologically adept, but lifelong windows user).

True, if you just want to fly straight to one of the most popular cities, you can just enter it in the autopilot and it will go there. But if you want to go anywhere or do anything else, you better be good a googling and understanding "how to fly a Concorde".
> tickets are currently sold under the wrong terms, which encourages scalping

The incentive to scalp arises from the likelihood that a ticket will be worth more in the future (buy low, sell high) and that future worth is established by scarcity (sold out shows). To help eliminate this likelihood, the original price (face value) needs to decrease over time, ideally in such a way that the final original ticket sale occurs right when doors open, because the sooner that occurs, the bigger the opportunity for scalping. "Dutch auction" [0] is one implementation of this concept, though it's typically to find the most money a single buyer will pay, whereas in this case we have thousands of buyers. Perhaps the rate at which the price declines could be dynamically adjusted to aim for N% sold when N% of the on-sale timeline has elapsed, for any N.

The problem is convincing promoters/etc. that this would be as profitable for them as the status quo. But it might be!

It's not easy to get data structures like this right in C++. There are a couple of problems with your implementation of the queue.
Memory accesses can be reordered by both the compiler and the CPU, so you should use std::atomic for your producer and consumer positions to get the barriers described in the original LMAX Disruptor paper.
In the get method, you're returning a pointer to the element within the queue after bumping the consumer position (which frees the slot for the producer), so it can get overwritten while the user is accessing it.
And then your producer and consumer positions will most likely end up in the same cache line, leading to false sharing.
Well you could change default boot entry in efivars, but if you're relying on firmware for that why not use firmware provided boot menu anyway?

Yes, quite right. I was thinking of the terminal driver and typed emulator for some reason. Good catch.
It used to be a hobby.

But now we have major, extended weather-related events once or twice a year (wildfires and winter storms). And then there was the pandemic.

So now, it's a mission-critical thing.

Yeah they keep adding garbage to the home screen, and putting it between the things that I actually use. Smells like desperation.
A copyright term of 30 years after first publication, or 30 years after creation if no publication happens in this period. Ideally add some provision that ensures works are actually available after that period (similar to how many countries require all printed books to be submitted to the national library, but extend it to all media that achieves some benchmark of significance). Patent duration adjusted on a per-industry basis. Trademarks are fine as is
To play along, activation is still a potential issue. Affinity v1 suite had offline activation so one can always activate on any new system/install, while v2 (for its non-volume license at least), which since brought along an optional subscription model, switched to online activation.

Looking at Adobe multiple versions have phased out online activation support over the years, with a not uncommon complaint being trouble installing and using purchases subsequently. As with anything tied to server checks one has to trust it will either continue working or workarounds be provided.

IIRC Clip Studio Paint switched their activation method in the last few years as well.

I've never seen dash dump escape sequences instead of acting on arrow keys. Probably, it's due to a missing or wrong TERM value?

Nowadays, programs should be hard-coded to accept ANSI sequences and ignore TERM (unless they need to make some fine-grained distinction like do we have 256 color xterm compatibility).

Those programs will never have that problem of not understanding arrow keys.
I mean, they should have that revenue, and a lot of us want them to just raise the prices for that reason. What's arguably kinda dishonest is when they have deals with Ticketmaster's scam of a resale scheme that result in them getting a large amount of the 'scalping margin' while also yelling about how they price their tickets SO low, and it's scalpers to blame for 'stealing the tickets from all you Real Fans!'
Because there are a lot of different types of filesystems supported. And you'd have to compile them all into the kernel. Which of course you can do, that is supported by the build system today. But Distros typically prefer to keep their kernels small, and not waste the RAM that would be taken up by compiling it all into the kernel.
I'm not arguing that tourism is bad, nor am I arguing for cold turkey cessation.

I am in the process of doing this as well, but I’m trying to stay on a tight budget.

After 10 failures and different trials, this is my rough process:
- Melt fine silver with a butane torch

- Pour it into a circle mold with a metal rod in the middle (makeshift ring mold). I tried sand casting with a wax mold but couldn’t keep the metal hot enough to fill the chamber.

- Hammer the ring on metal ring mandrel to shape and increase the size. This took probably 5,000 light hits with a metal hammer, periodically annealing.

- Use a dremel and grinding stone to further shape it

- Sand and polish by hand

Since I shaped it with a metal hammer, it has a really nice and natural hammer finish that I plan to keep.

I’m considering trying to electroplate it in palladium since the fine silver will tarnish and scratch over time, but it’ll be harder to fix inevitable mistakes.
I think Python is terrible, but whitespace is ok. lol
>Linux the kernel + some userland without terminal is used by majority of people in the form of Android and Chromebooks.

Exactly, so why hasn't the open source community driving free distros taken note of this?

Now more than ever, people want out of Windows, but the only they step into the seat of exit craft and see the above cockpit.
This code already exists in UEFI in the form of secure boot. The 'bootloader' (more accurately 'boot menu' IMO) kernel and its initramfs would be authenticated and unlocked by the system firmware, and then authenticate and unlock the rootfs and (optionally) different kernel for that system. It's basically going "hey, GRUB is more or less re-inventing the linux kernel, why don't we just write a simple userland for linux that does the same job but with way less code instead?"
Mozilla wants you to like Firefox over Chrome with extended Windows 7/8 support
Very cool post, but as someone who has been on the other side of the situation, I do have sympathy for what they are trying to accomplish.

I bought a ticket that someone had double sold, and by the time I got to the door, they turned me away and said the ticket had already been used. So their system has good intentions, they just need to make it work offline.
The real performance depends on the runtime behavior of the machine as well as compiler optimizations. I thought this talk was very interesting on this subject.

> Booting linux directly just boots you into that install. It doesn't give you a boot menu or any of the other functionality GRUB provides. This project is basically proposing building that in a small initramfs userland instead

I indeed understood that part, but their motivation for this was security. If you want security, you should want to boot directly into the kernel. And if you're the occasional user who has multiple OSes installed in parallel... you can just add more kernels from your dual-boot installs directly to the UEFI screen; there's really no need to go through any form of intermediate stage, whether kernel-based or boot-loader-based.

What I'm trying to say is: as cool as this is from a technical standpoint, I just don't understand the root of the premise or motivation here whose optimal solution is this approach. Whom is RedHat trying to please with this? The small fraction of users who dual-boot Linux, or the rest of the users who just have a single install? And what problem are they actually trying to solve -- security, performance, or something else? Because the optimal solution to the first two doesn't feel like this one, unless they're targeting a niche use case I'm not seeing? e.g., do they have lots of enterprise users that boot off a network, but whom would rather have a local Linux install whose sole job is to boot that...?
Programs like zsh, bash, ksh, fish and most TUIs put the terminal into cooked mode so that they can manage the terminals behavior manually. In cooked mode, the terminal is not new line buffered and instead every character is read. The terminal only appears to be new line buffered but is actually being managed by the shell, which then in turn allows the devs to add nice features like manipulating the text buffer to do tab completion or prepend the line with sudo.
It's easy (2-3 commands), takes like a minute on a modern machine with trimmed down kernel configuration, and you can customize the kernel to your liking (write/patch drivers, embed firmware blobs, fix things that are broken or missing). What's to hate? :)

Though I only do it for my ARM based devices currently.

And if you're not throwing away build artifacts after each build, then getting stable updates is just a `git pull` and incremental make, which is usually very quick.
Yep and what's worse is many hft firms aren't in the market-making business at all but actually REMOVE liquidity.
> Everyone deserves to get paid for their work. Once.

Interesting way to look at it. If you write a piece of software should you only get a single sale and then it be free for use by the entire world?
Considering I haven't managed to run into malware or phishing sites on either of those providers they seem to be doing something right. Why are these so-called "evil" hosting companies less of a problem for me than namecheap, godaddy, and google?
I wasn't talking about having the choice of using another agency, Ticketmaster is predatory and this is a problem.

I was talking about using Ticketmaster (for the lack of other choice) but using one of the more consumer friendly services Ticketmaster appear to provide. I am sure Ticketmaster won't mind, they get their share anyways.

What I wanted to say is that Ticketmaster may be responsible for your ticket costing $70 and not $60, but for all the other bullshit, they just do what is asked of them (by the artists, venue, event organizers, etc... maybe even the fans themselves). Or at least, that's how I think it is.
I'm not aware how to get byte-for-byte identical source out of a Java class file or .NET assembly.

Last I checked, Java AoT compilation precluded runtime re-optimization, though I presume they've fixed that by now.

Last I checked, they both used stack-based bytecode, which typically takes longer to JIT and results in slower native code than a compressed SSA / control flow graph (see the SafeTSA papers).
Zipper Merging reduces congestion:

A manager thought that they could reduce scope on implementing proper rate limiting after a postmortem or how does this appear?
There is more to this argument. Adobe made themselves an industry standard with a perpetual license - pay once, own forever. Once they transitioned to a subscription model with a strict cancellation policy, it became the only option.

Saying that designers could have just continued using Photoshop CS on a 2006 MacBook doesn't reflect the reality of hardware updates and the changes in the industry-wide design trends.
It's a TV! It plays video. How is that not "fit for purpose" and of "acceptable quality."

Honestly just seems nuts to me for the law to be so vague.

Why don't they just say, "Refund under any circumstance the customer feels inconvenienced and upset" and be done with it?

I find that much more honest and easier to follow than what you're describing.

Caveat emptor and all.
Oh, bummer. I got down to flipping between position #2 and position #3, then the poll request returned 503 and I lost my spot.
22 TB drives are around $230 on ebay, so if you used 15 of them in raidz2, that'd be around $3500 (so maybe a little over $4k with the rest of the server), which is around the cost of a new mirrorless camera and a decent lens, so certainly within the realm of a hobbyist. You probably couldn't get away with downloading 250 TB in any reasonable timeframe with most US ISPs (or at least Comcast) though. That'd be over 2.5 months of 300 Mb/s non-stop. Even copying it from a friend using 2.5 Gbit/s Ethernet would take over a week.
Gradle makes it incredibly fast and easy to bootstrap a simple project. Then, it's extraordinarily flexible after that in how you can use Groovy to add custom logic into how your build works. There are a lot of things I like about it.

What I really hate though is that it's designed around a principle of everything happening 'magically' such that when something goes wrong it is nearly impossible to mechanistically understand what happened and how to fix it. It really leans into the most negative aspects of Groovy and amplifies them.
Would be interesting to see the same done for the UEFA ticket app.
They use QR codes that are activated/visible only when the user in on site, detected via Bluetooth.
They claim that secondary use is then not possible.
This seems to just generate a random string to go with whatever domain I have set. Personally I prefer my email aliases to be of the form `<business_name>@<my_domain>` or `<website_domain>@<my_domain>`. That way if you do start getting unsolicited email it is crystal clear who is spamming you (or has sold/leaked your data).

In fact, given it seems to just put a random string in front of a domain name you give it I'm a little curious as to why they need your API key at all - is it just to ensure that you are not creating duplicate email aliases?
That was fun. I earned my PhD in 5 years 11 months. Got so engrossed I didn't even notice the hope meter but finished with a 56. That seems like a long time but I also enjoyed reading all those papers.
But it's not akin to not having blue anymore. Not having red anymore is akin to not having blue anymore.

In the Culture novels, the characters that stand out most to me were his Minds rather than any of the pan-human non-AI. What's most intriguing to me, something I rarely ever see in science fiction is how utterly "human" and warm his AI creations always were. Just read Look to Windward, Masaq Hub in particular, for the ultimate example.
If you add an extra blank line, or add a trailing space to a line, can you really get that back out from a .NET assembly? Normal disassembly at a minimum results in a loss of formatting.
It doesn't have to be a module if you're building the kernel for yourself. No violation in that.
Agreed. The world needs a global free library whether or not the law permits it. People deserve access to knowledge first and foremost.
I am pretty sure the US is literally the only place where people generally think journalists are trustworthy. I don't know if it's the fluoride in the water or what but there's a very sad mass delusion going on here.
I wish Resolve could record multiple video/audio input sources at once - like a video DAW.

4K HDMI -> USB capture devices are so cheap these days. Yes you can record on the cameras, transfer and sync but it’s friction
Yes of course. I really mean to say, before/instead of pivoting to the OS root. It sounds like this will synergize well with the UKI effort too, at least from a Secure Boot perspective.
I thought pip freeze > requirements.txt lists direct dependencies, as well as the transitive dependencies, and includes exact version numbers. From system, it copies the relevant binaries.

In the future, pip install requirements.txt will install the exact same set of packages at those pinned versions. Unless the system components drastically change, the build is deterministic and project should run in the future.

Sure, in the future if you change the version number for one package, the build might break, but that’s expected.

It looks like the lock files specify the dependency graph, hashes of each package, URLs, and metadata about the system, so they do better when a package is updated.
Wow in the first video the man behind the camera refers to customers as clowns. Acts as if the guy he grabbed is stupid and not capable to enter a code on the web page. So weird.
Oddly enough, my PhD was also saved by a fellow grad student suggesting a different experiment that used the same equipment. I was ready to drop out and apply to the engineering school.
