How is the copilot key recognized on OpenBSD? Does it appear like an extra Function key?

Lol you must be one of those "the idea is worth more than the implementation types.
>What form of enforcement do you envision that is compatible with the First Amendment?

The first step would be rolling back "corporations are people and have the rights of people."

Granting corporations the rights of people turned them into a superior life form that can live forever, reproduce sexually and asexually through mergers and splits, mutate on purpose, own property, cross borders, and do all this with a tax advantage over humans. Willfully seeding the world with a superior life form was not a good idea, and today they have the lobbying budgets and first amendment rights to make sure they retain that primacy.

I agree corporations need to be able to curate speech, but the first amendment is not the framework to use to justify this.
1. Maybe it's a matter of perspective. I actually find the free plan to be quite restrictive, especially for long term use. The current model is designed to be profitable. The free plan is sustainable.

2. Yes, you can. Just open the web app, click Upload Files, and select what you want. More details here: https://horizon.pics/help/articles/start-uploading-files.

3. Yes, it's lightweight, fast, and user-friendly. It's quite minimal looking, and I've tried my best to make it as easy to understand as possible. Whether that's through clear and concise instructions along the way, tooltips or intuitive action button colour hierarchy. There's no Windows client because I just haven't gotten to it yet. There's ShareX, which is compatible with Horizon.
I have found many similarities between home AI and home astronomy. The equipment needed to get really good performance is far beyond that available to the home user, however intellectually satisfying results can be had at home as a hobby. But certainly not professional results.

Hey, dude, your site is pretty sick. Great job. Optional email! A minor gripe: the blue on green for your “Sign in with google” is kind of hard to read on my iPhone. Black or white perhaps might be better?

How do you make the economics work? Cloudflare in front? R2 for storage?

Holy balls and a desktop app in Tauri?! Dude you are a skilled 17 yo. You’ve been doing it for 3 years? Haha the kids are going to be all right. Good shit, mate.

This guy so honest. Which adds bonus parts to his already incredible magic.
I've fallen in absolute love with the visual programming of Rivet, which compiles to JavaScript and can be run with Node. It's absolutely amazing, and it incorporates AI logic directly into it. I highly recommend it.

It was obvious since the beginning, WebAssembly is after all the political child out of the plugins and applet wars, Mozilla not willing to adopt PNaCL, pushing asm.js instead, and everyone agreed on WebAssembly instead.

Ironically, Chrome is the one with best WebAssembly support, and Firefox hardly matters now.
This looks fantastic! What AI models do you use?
I'm a nobody then, as I used Mercurial on Bitbucket until they dropped support.

I don't imagine they are super hard, if they require wifi or usb or JTAG access, you can just dump it and figure out what it is doing, its not going to be any harder than reversing any other explotiation technique.

There would be thousands, if not tens of thousands of people in the world who can do it. Its much harder to create the exploit than to reverse it.
The notion of a factory that repairs itself is so hilarious to anyone who has worked in a real factory. After a few years of operation, all of the production machinery is constantly on the edge of breaking down. It takes continuous effort to keep things working at all, plus there are always changes for design updates and new models.

It can get so bad that one is only searching a database of ads. Where the "content" is poorly disguised advertisement. I have found various "search engines" like this over the years. They tend to disappear after a short while.

It always makes me wonder: Who the heck uses these "search engines"?

Their existence suggests there is some completely captive audience to target, e.g., where the audience only knows one source for searching.

An audience that is not going to "reject" the results let alone evaluate them. Even if the results are poorly disguised advertisements. Because this audience is apparently incapable of locating another "search engine".

Perhaps this is also what happens when competition is stifled through anticompetitive practices. People never come to know what they are missing.

Arguably the bigger/worse false belief right there.

> First the exam makes you doubt or forget your memories. Then, by forcing you to re-access them again and again under stress, it literally rewrites them.

To some extent this happens naturally, so if the questioner really wants accuracy, you won't force people to re-access the memory for no good reason.
Show HN: Site2pdf
Hello everyone, I created a tool called "site2pdf" over the weekend. This tool converts the main page and sub-pages of a website that match a specified URL pattern into a PDF file. It is particularly suitable for AI-based RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) and QA (Question Answering) tasks.

GitHub: https://github.com/laiso/site2pdf/

# Features

- Generate PDFs of main and sub-pages

- Based on Node.js and Puppeteer

- Easy-to-use CLI tool

I want to make this software available online for my friends, but I'm struggling with the best architecture to use. I want to meet the following requirements:

- Cost-effective

- Use Cloudflare Workers' Browser Rendering API(Managed Puppeteer)

- Save to Workers Queue -> R2 bucket

I have already created a prototype, but it encounters ExceededCpu errors when running the consumer for a long time. It seems I need to implement a distributed architecture including merging, which seems challenging. I would appreciate any advice you can give. Thank you!

I look forward to your feedback!
I think that bruteforcing the passcode is an unlikely attack vector, if they do "brute force it" it likely wont be with apples OS running, it would be some kind of custom attack.
Thank you! I work hard to impress with all of my sites.

Looks like the "Sign in with Google" text is only blue on iOS Safari. On other browsers, it's white on green. I'll investigate further.

Cloudflare is indeed in front. The pricing model has been tuned to allow for one paid subscription to subsidize many free accounts. Horizon uses Backblaze B2 as the object storage provider.

I'm always eager to learn new technologies!
The readme shows how to run it assuming you can run a python program on the device, so I expect it works with laptops and PCs but there's a note at the end of the page saying that the iOS app has fallen behind the python version so it's not clear to me how to get this running on your iphone or other such devices.

And that thing is left for unreleased on windows for almost a whole year for unknown reason. Even though there is activity on github and build fix frequently. There is just no .exe or .msi for you to download. In fact, the rocm for linux is on major 6 release (which includes miopen). But somehow windows is still on major 5 (don't have miopen) for almost a whole year.

It almost make me wonder. Is there a shady trade somewhere to ask amd never release sdk for Windows to hike the price of nvidia card higher? Why they keep developing these without release it at all?

> I wonder what the eventual end game is

The end game for the US is a small group of people(approx 36M) having fun. It's not too different from how it is now, but rather than be supported by human labor, it's supported by the labor of machines.

If all wage labor is automated, and ignoring the issue of the social and political implications of a mass of people with nothing else to do, the remaining professions will be SME business owners, investors, and landlords[1].

We can estimate the size of this population.

There are approximately 28 million American SMEs[2]. SMEs can have owner-employees or hired labor, all of which will be automated. Considering SMEs as financial black boxes, the inputs, and outputs remain the same with the exception that salaries are replaced by a presumably smaller figure representing either the purchase or rental of automated labor.

An estimated 7 million[3] high-net-worth individuals(HNWI) reside in the US. These are people with large investment portfolios who can live off gains indefinitely. It's difficult to estimate the number of full-time investors, but some estimate range from 200k-1million, and arguably, and these are folks who are doing potentially automatable work anyways.

The upperbound of US landlords is 10.6 million people[4], or 7.1%. There are 5.9 million[5] commercial buildings in the US, compared to 44 million[6] residential rental properties. Let's estimate the number of commercial landlords to be around 1 million people in the US. We can also presume that maintenance and repair is automatable labor.

The common features these groups share is the ability to generate income without labor. Presumably, this leaves them plenty of time to engage in leisure activities.

Looking toward HNWI individuals as an indicator, they spend much more of their time engaged in "active" leisure, that is to say praying, socializing, exercising, hobbies, and volunteering[7].

Nice story, but is it correct? Wikipedia says STL was first implemented by HP and later by the same authors at SGI.

>Maybe it's a matter of perspective.

Definitely! I think 500MB is more than enough, even as a tech guy, for a rolling storage with oldest giving way to newest. Most people aren't going to upload files as big as 75MB either. Unlimited bandwidth is icing on the cake.

While on the subject, $45 for 100 GB of cloud storage a year is a rip off (no offence). I can (and do) pay $70 for a year of Microsoft 365 Personal which gives me 2TB of cloud storage and the industry standard office suite. I can (and do) pay $20 for a year of Google One which gives me 100GB cloud storage and thus Google Drive and Photos space.

Your pricing by comparison isn't competitive, at least to me. Between an uncompetitive product and a free tier that is (read: should be) more than adequate for most users I'm still curious how secure your financials are.
No one wants to show me though. Is that not weird? Fanbois say it is, but not one person even sends an open source project that demonstrates it. I don’t understand that? Please show me a non trivial project on GitHub that does this in ms like you say. All I try are slow af. Emacs is notoriously slow as a lisp; it is always faster, for me, than anything ts and definitely not trivial. Sbcl/cl blows it all away. Please an example in ts or it didn’t happen.

Source ? Also the issue of monetary aid is different than general support. I assume many Americans don't want to send billions to Europe/Nato either yet they still support Europe.
Did you look into stud finders? They’re devices specifically made to detect pipes and electrical wiring in walls.

I love that you immediately went to WiFi for this though. Gotta love us tech people over complicating things haha!
It takes 2 minutes to fix a hole with filler paste. You can also find a discrete place to put it, like the opposite side of the wall, under the threshold, behind a closet, using existing holes for wiring.

Drilling gently through wood or gypsum, you will notice immediately that you got through the sheet, before you can even hit a pipe or anything else behind. Then use that hole for the endoscopy to map out the beams and sensitives behind.
Correct. On the other hand, Europe (and especially my home Germany) tend to be really bad at navigating people through the laws and regulations they create. Laypeople are left to figure out what the laws are, what they mean, how to follow them, where to get the required certifications etc.

My first year of running a simple business in Germany was unbelievably confusing. My only saving grace was that none of those laws are enforced. GDPR is a good example.

For some context on the Tuskegee "experiment" I'd recommend the two-part series from "You're Wrong About" [0] [1]. Buxtun shows up in the second episode. What I hadn't remembered is that it was 6 years from when he first raised his concerns until they were taken seriously.

yeah, I took the Ubuntu / Fedora perf for granted as well. Recently switched back to Arch on a whim across one low-end machine, one high-end machine, and both run like lightning compared to Ubuntu 24.04 / Fedora 40.

Expected the difference with Ubuntu as it packs more out of the box for the enterprise behaviours, not so much with Fedora. I've had no freezes, faster startup and shutdown, generally more responsive desktop etc. with Arch.

Generally, though a rolling release it also has fewer moving parts as well - only having to deal with the main repo + flatpak (and a select few AUR pkgbuilds) is nice compared to Ubuntu where I had to layer deb repos + PPAs + flatpak + brew to get my tooling in place without having to script my own git-driven installers.

One thing that tripped me up on any distro - the defaults for TLP (vs power profile daemon) seem hyper conservative wrt performance, probably by design. I never bothered digging in, just switched back to PPD, but it definitely prioritises power savings above all else.
The EU is at the end of the day still 27 countries with their different laws and regulations each trying to protect their own little market. The way the ‘single market’ is constructed is by slapping a bunch of eu wide regulations on top of this mess.

So yes it is much easier to sell to single big countries like China or the USA if you can, and it always will be

This is not going to be solved soon as EU countries are responding to this pressure by voting for even more protectionism at the national level

No, they are zero.

Most people have extra hardware lying around at home they're not using. It costs nothing but time to install python.

$100 is not free.

If you can't be bothered, sure thing, slap down that credit card and spend your $100.

...but, maybe not so for some people?

Consider students with no credit card, etc; there are a lot of people with a lot of free time and not a lot of money. Even if you don't want to use it do you do seriously think this project is totally valueless for everyone?

Maybe, it's not for you. Not everything has to be for everyone.

You are, maybe, just not the target audience here?
