Assuming this doesn’t inject any spurious code of its own into the migrated content, and you don’t include the migrator itself in your sites distributed artifacts, you should be fine. The license only applies to the code, not to the things it touches.
It also works only with iptables. And because it's from 2012, it's watching the file /var/log/kern.log [0], which was a simple way to monitor for incoming packets in 2012, but will not work anymore with systemd based distributions nowadays, since all logs are binary and thus accessible through an util such as journalctl.

Someone opened a PR to address this [1]. It tries to keep it simple in the spirit of the tool, but it adds another dependency (a systemd python module).

I like it overall. The code is so small and simple, it's easy to adapt and to keep small anyway, whatever distro and firewall one might end up use it with.

> Giving away 911 service isn't pushing anyone out of the telecom business.

Irrelevant. My claim was about a free service replacing a paid one. 911 service in the US is paid for by states and local governments, and telecoms must provide it to operate. Having a free option would create a disincentive to keep the status quo, and the paid service may be less upkept.

> There is zero chance that the Starlink network would be abandoned and stop working if SpaceX went bankrupt

Seems exceptionally naive. “Zero chance” alone is naive, there is substantial probability. But even if the satellites were kept in orbit by another owner, why would they continue to provide a free service at a cost? Even that question may be irrelevant, because non-profitable efforts would be ended by most restructurings.

> Again, people are delusional to think that he would leave people to die on a whim

Tesla’s exaggerated FSD claims are directly responsible for people’s deaths, including the Walter Huang case, where this negligence was established as a cause by plaintiff’s lawyers.

You should double-check your arguments.
I don't know why I thought a controlled landing of a plane on water was generally possible. Maybe because of the pre-safety instructions where it sort of implies (maybe it's just me) that if a plane were to land on water, I could just put on a life vest, get the raft and get off. Looking at that footage and the death toll, feels like a miracle even that many people survived.

That makes me wonder if being able to land a passenger plane on water is ever a factor in its design.
I fabulate about this in another comment below:

You have far too much confidence in the idea that LLMs are anything like human brains. It’s next to meaningless to try to draw parallels between the two things.

Your assertion that “conscious reasoning” “has elements of a tree-search” is just completely made up. And the idea that human learning is at all similar to what LLM training is doing is completely divorced from reality.

It sounds like your intention, as stated, was to give an opinion and follow up question. The downvotes suggest that an innocent observation and question was not received.

When I read what you wrote, I see an accusation and a pithy open window. "Are you broken or dumb?" -- and moreso the comment you replied to said "exciting development; i keep my nasal passages and throat moist for the same reasons." Like, your comment barely follows. Except to say that taking preventative measures that appear backed by studies is a form of delusion.

But you would need a container that the evil maid can't go get a duplicate of or have one manufactured so they can replace the container after destroying original one.

What's the goal here? Why can't the same super-powered evil maid just create a visually-identical replica of your entire computer, login UI included, then MITM your password / unlock sequence ?

Then go through your original computer at their leisure with the captured password, while you ponder why "your" computer just crashed after login...

They lost me already. Is this supposed to be sarcasm? I'm hoping it is - the more I read, the more the entire article looks like they were trying to write satire... but then they end with a non-sarcastic conclusion.

I'm really unclear if this whole thing is satire or if they really just hate JS so much that they are over-exaggerating the most complex ways to engage with its ecosystem.
The newest models are solving some of the hardest Math Olympiad problems [1]. This is in the top 1% of the top 1% math students out of high school.

The math performance, even for VERY hard problems, is already getting extremely good and progress is still high year-on-year.

What OpenAI (and everyone else, less publicly) seem to be doing, is to integrate these kinds of abilities into multi-modal models.

I have been kind of "meh" about the recent AI hype, but this is seriously impressive.

Of course, we're clearly looking at complete nonsense generated by something that does not understand what it is doing – yet, it is astonishingly sensible nonsense given the type of information it is working from. I had no idea the state of the art was capable of this.

Chess has such a tiny scope and tightly defined rules that it’s hilarious to map this idea of generated chess games as training input onto anything resembling real-world concepts.

Standard IANAL disclaimer applies.

It seems like the author wants to prevent commercial use of the software:

> I want this project to be as widely accessible as possible, while still funding the development costs. This project is completely free for non-commercial and personal usage. Commercial usage is restricted via a license. Feel free to contact me if you want to license this commercially

You're not permitted to use the tool to migrate your commercial blog. This is why BY-NC is not considered a free license in the most common definition of the term.

However, this license does not apply to the generated output. It only applies to the work the license is attached to. It's not a viral license in that sense. You can migrate your blog and later turn it into a commercial enterprise without risking copyright violations.

If you want to migrate your commercial blog, you should ask the author. They can license their code under any license they choose, so they could sell or give you a copy licensed such that you are legally permitted to use it commercially.
It's unlikely that such a procedurally generated mashup would be perfectly coherent, stable and most importantly fun right out of the gate, so you would need some way to reach into the guts of the generated game and refine it. If properties as simple as "how much health this enemy type has" are scattered across an enormous inscrutable neural network, and may not even have a single consistent definition in all contexts, that's going to be quite a challenge. Nevermind if the game just catastrophically implodes and you have to "debug" the model.

Pavel Durov has traveled to Russia more than 60 times between 2014 to 2021
One of the most damaging things israel has done (aside from killing entire school districts worth of children) has been the disastrous PR the jewish community.

Israelis basically go out of their way to tell everyone that they represent the will of all jews and will attack jews who object to this war. I know several jews personally who are horrified by whats going on in gaza including a few who are afraid to speak out because of the way more outspoken members of their community are being targeted. One I know was banned from a jewish reddit he frequented because he had the nerve to point out that palestinians used the watermelon because they were not allowed to display their flag.

But to also point out, nettenyahu himself funded Hamas's campaign so that they'd win against the PLO because nettenyahu himself is a staunch authoritarian and relies on the existential threat posed by israel's enemies in order to secure his power. Its a matter of record now that egypt had intel about the impending oct 7 attacks and warned Israel ahead of time only to have nettenyahu sit on that info and do nothing.

But what do I know, I'll probably be flagged for this post anyway.
Oh, wow! I started using that in my university days (2002) as notebook for classes and eventually for everything else, didn't know it was ever a thing. It just made sense, given how much one-side only printed pages I had laying around. I also tried a crud bounding with twine for more stability but figured a second clip on the opposite side was enough and saved me the effort of punching holes. I also reused an old moleskine notebook cover which was just the perfect size. It still lives today, now as my ebook reader cover and a few blank pages. With a rubber band, it can also fit nicely an securely a pen.

Ask HN: Want thoughts on an experimental tool to discourage recruiter ghosting
I've been job hunting lately, which means, naturally, I've been dealing with recruiters who ghost.

When I look online for discussions regarding this, folks sometimes hypothesize that ghosting could reduce if the recruiters and companies experienced reputational consequences.

I want to build a quick MVP browser extension to test this hypothesis, and I'd like people's thoughts on whether it will actually do anything to solve the problem (when it scales).

The ideal tool will warn job hunters about the ghosting patterns of companies/recruiters as they visit websites, job postings, LinkedIn pages, etc.

There are 3 main things I this MVP to have:

1) Being able to aggregate user-provided ghosting instances (proof has to be provided) on a per-recruiter basis. Then, when users encounter this recruiter online (email, LinkedIn, etc), they get a banner at the top of their page summarizing the aggregation. For example: "X has 100 instances of ghosting people in the last 2 months." Clicking on this banner allows you to see all the instances, along with their proof (like email threads or something).

2) Having some notion of ghosting severity: being ghosted after a face-to-face video call is worse than being ghosted after initial email contact.

3) Being able to aggregate the ghosting behavior of recruiters on a company wide level: if someone goes to a company careers page or a job posting, they get a similar banner showing the aggregation summary across their recruiters. For the sake of discussion, let's disregard the caveat that recruiters change jobs often: assume this is handled.

As mentioned above, before I even think about the technical nuances of how some tricky aspects would work, I'd like thoughts on whether people think this would even move the needle to reduce ghosting or not. Looking for the thoughts of devs and recruiters alike. Comments suggesting devs to just move on since ghosting is ubiquitous won't really be helpful here :)

For me, I have a couple hypotheses on how this could make the experience better for devs:

1) Curbs their expectations

2) Gives them better insight into which recruiters to prioritize when handling multiple at once. This, in turn, may change recruiter behavior once they start to know this is happening. This may also affect which recruiters get hired by employers (I am not totally convinced about this last one).

EDIT: I want to clarify something:
If someone applies to a role via a portal or something and the company doesn't respond, that's not ghosting (or, rather, that's not the ghosting I'm talking about). This is more tackling the case where there's been some communication between you and the recruiter, and then they just drop it. That's the rude case I'm focusing on. The recruiter is perfectly in the right to want to move on at any point. But a quick 5 work message or email vs ghosting makes a big difference for the recipient. Even outside of being less rude, it makes things easier because you know which doors are actually still open or not.
The raw capacity of the network doesn't tell you how complex the weights actually are. The capacity is only an upper bound on the complexity.

It's easy to see this by noting that you can often prune networks quite a bit without any loss in performance. I.e. the effective dimension of the manifold the weights live on can be much, much smaller than the total capacity allows for. In fact, good regularization is exactly that which encourages the model itself to be compressible.
Yes, but woolly mammoths were on the smaller side. Steppe and Columbian mammoths were bigger, as were (longer ago) Mammuthus meridionalis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mammoth#Description

Evolutionarily though, Indian elephants are more closely related to mammoths than either are to African elephants.

Elephants are now pretty unique, but there were many more related species in the past. Most of the big animals in general were killed off, many with no big relatives remaining.

Udacity had a great Python course back in the day (Programming 101, for Python 2.7)

It had vidoes and then a REPL would drop down and you would continue writing your program, test it against test cases and then a new video would go on for a few minutes explaining the theory for the next step.

I can see why not many try and do this. It obviously took a lot of work, both technically and pedagogically to set up the course and problems.
Its more a UX/org thing. In iMessage how do you report a problematic message? you can't easily do it.

In whatsapp, the report button is on the same menu that you use to reply/hide/pin/react.

Once you do that, it sends the offending message to meta, unencrypted. To me, that seems like a reasonable choice. Even if you have "proper" e2ee, it would still allow rooting out of nasty/illegal shit. those reports are from real people, rather than automated CSAM hashing on encrpyted messages. (although I suspect there is some tracking before and after.)

Its the same with instagram/facebook. The report button is right there. I don't agree with FB on many things, but this one I think they've made the right choice.
I made a chrome extension that does that on youtube videos (can do on any video). Could do basic motion extraction. Got clueless on how to do all the rest of the things he did in that video.
Matrix supports voice and video integration out of the box, as does Zulip.

I think voice chat is very popular with gaming discord users, not so much with software projects anyway.

You've hit the nail on the head. Really, when people complain about CISC vs RISC, they are mostly complaining about two particular things. The first is that x86 processors carry legacy baggage (aka they have had a long history of success that continues to this day) and the second is that x86 has a lot of variable length instructions. After that, most of the complaints are very nit-picky, such as the number of general purpose registers and how they are named.
The "Bose Music" Android app, which is essentially two sliders for controlling volume and noise cancellation, plus a firmware update tool, is also 300 MB.

In Australia the email thing being discussed is largely a sideshow to the law that was recently passed.

The behaviour of concern relates to the kind of bosses | managers that make a point of contacting employees out of hours and pressuring them to attend the office | answer questions at length, etc.

It's the direct phone calls and obsessive DM's @ 2 minute intervals that being targetted - most people handle auto generated work related emails well enough, they learn to disable notifications and have muscle memory for "Dismiss".
> Is it possible to break the camera free and roam around the map freely and view it from different angles?

I would assume only if the training data contained this type of imagery, which it did not. The training data (from what I understand) consisted only of input+video of actual gameplay, so that is what the model is trained to mimick.

This is like a dog that has been trained to form English words – what's impressive is not that it does it well, but that it does it at all.

Howver, this is due how we actually digitize video.

^ If I can try to steel man this, it may be that having two different languages is simply worse than having one, even if the one language is non-optimal. Sure, if you were starting Linux today you wouldn't choose C, and hopefully Linux won't be the last operating system to ever exist, and the next one can use Rust. But Linux uses C, and no one is contemplating a full rewrite, so it's best to stick with C.

Not most people. Nobody can breath if the altitude is high enough. There are some individual variability in how high is too high. That is of interest if you go mountaineering, but not really in a situation where an aircraft rapidly decompresses at the altitude MH370 was speculated to be flying at.

When General Paul M. Nakasone, who until just recently was near the top of the chain for Cyber Command in the US Armed Forces, joined the OpenAI board, it could be seen in multiple ways.

My take is that this wasn't something OpenAI did as a PR stunt, but rather that the military started seeing this tech as being critical to national security, and basically forced OpenAI to take him on the board.

That's not necessarily good for stock prices. If AI beyond some capability are labelled as strategic military assets, then the Nvidia export restrictions may end up a pale foreshadowing of what AI companies could be facing soon.
