Hey guys, it's been a while since I posted last time. Over past few months I did a lot of updates and changes.

Jellyfin is a selfhosted media library.
Huh, I have been programming in rust for a long time and I've never noticed such diagnostics.

Well, unless you count an unintentional LLVM crash as a "diagnostic or error", then I've noticed one exactly once...

.NET 9.0 preview still includes ARMv7 builds for Linux: one based on glibc library, another one for Alpine.
A practical way to test HTML and CSS in real-time using only CSS
Recently, I made public a CSS framework I developed for creating radial designs. During development, I faced several challenges, including testing different features. I noticed that CSS linters and other tools didn't allow me to see why something wasn't working, even if there were no basic errors. Another typical CSS problem was seeing how it was shared across different browsers. Fortunately, I discovered that certain new CSS features can be used to create a series of real-time tests. These features are `@support`, `@container`, and `:has()`.

By combining these features, I developed a testing system not only to check if the framework works in the browser but also, and most importantly, to see if we are applying HTML correctly according to the browser's requirements and avoiding involuntary errors when developing an application.

Since my CSS framework necessarily uses features that only the newest browsers have, such as trigonometric functions like `cos()` and `sin()`, I created a series of rules to test if they are supported by the browser. If they're not, a message appears asking to update the browser. Similarly, if the browser doesn't support `:has()`, which is used throughout the framework.

There are also typical cases of browser incompatibility, so in some non-critical cases, I use `@support` or `@container` to hide certain Orbit features that don't affect its use. For example, Safari doesn't accept SVG `context-stroke`, so I hide them.

However, beyond those critical checks and compatibility, the most common issue when using a CSS framework is not knowing how to use it properly. That's why I created other CSS rules that allow analyzing if a parent element has the required child elements and not others. Here, visual alerts also appear while developing to give a hint about where the error is in the code.

I don't want to bore you with the details specific to Orbit, but I'll leave you the link to the support source and related documentation.

Show HN: Eleven Hundred – Have fun explaining words in simple terms an LLM
Hey HN,

During my free time over 3 week summer vacation, I created a word game where you explain the word of the day to a language model using the most frequent 1,100 English words. I've been describing this to friends as "Wordle meets Thing Explainer".

Hope you all enjoy it!
I could believe it if it didn’t have another cookie banner.
For me personally, timed reminder is a must have. Being able to give some task a date and then forget about it until its due and gives me proactive reminder. As far as I know, no text-based system is capable of that.
You may also find https://github.com/Canop/bacon to complement this type of workflow / mental mode. I keep both bacon and cargo-watch installed and use each regularly but I probably spend more time with bacon for commonplace working sessions.

Also in the ring are https://github.com/eradman/entr and watchexec (which shares code and authorship with cargo-watch IIRC). As you can see I'm a fan of changed-files-automatically-do-things workflows.
Denuvo has been disabled many times; however, the amount of work required to modify all the generated injection points is tedious—it's a LOT of work. It seems that fewer and fewer people are willing to spend weeks or months of their lives cracking a single game.

Anti-cheat systems, on the other hand, are entirely different. If you only need to modify one variable in the game, it's much easier because, in most cases, that variable is frequently used. This means you can't add too much overhead to its use, and after all, it's just one variable.
Did Intel's stock drop as a result of these AMD performance improvements?

Honestly, they are huge improvements and really put the nail in Intel, now it has an even higher road to climb to get competitive again.
OMG! This is so beautiful! Am I crying, or did my eye sight just had an orgasm?
It would likely also be a death sentence, like with Navalny in Russia.

Yep ants really are quite degenerated individually, compared even to Wasps they evolved from. I have a persistent fear that this is the fate of humanity and that we're already halfway there.
Librem laptops have a TPM separate from Intel ME. The post is about if you have nuked the TPM built into the Intel ME. I'd say "have separate TPM" is a viable alternative.
They're grown from stem cells. Neuro-ethics (especially the ethics around using brain organoids) is an entire field of research. Although brain organoids exhibit neural connections and electrical activity, they have so far failed to form even basic synaptic circuits — without which consciousness is probably impossible. But of course we should take every precaution to ensure that they DON'T form consciousness. But that's still a ways away.
I'm not saying it is, I'm saying it could, because this is one of the most intrusive anti-cheats on the market. It can do and see basically anything on your computer.
I personally like the characters who seem not under the influence of law.

The toxic developer in question quit 2 years ago - things are peaceful now with the community.
Pale Moon isn't a rebuild of Firefox - it's a complete fork with its own rendering engine Goanna based off Gecko 52 and developed independently. Several of the security vulnerabilities introduced due to the larger code base and complexity of a multi process browser (to say nothing of Firefox's additional bloat of adding what are better as extensions to the browser core such as a PDF renderer or Pocket) are simply not applicable to Pale Moon, but the release notes detail the ones that are and have been patched.

The only thing 'outdated' is their not jumping on the minimalist, mobile focused UI that Chrome invented and Firefox copied and retaining a sane, desktop user focused and fully customizable UI that doesn't need digging into about:config or userChrome.css tweaks and can be directly done from the preferences dialog or context menus. The way Firefox used to be until version 4 onwards when the copying Chrome and limiting user choice began.
To your last point, why should you have to tweak Firefox for privacy at all when they keep proclaiming how privacy friendly they supposedly are? Pale Moon is private out of the box - there is no baked in telemetry (they don't run a telemetry server, for starters), analytics, tracking, advertising or anything else on those lines.
The Matrix official canon is that humans were being used for energy, which didn’t really make sense until you interpret that as using humans as highly efficient information processors. This company does awfully seem like step 0 here.
Big fan of bazqux.com
I saw a longer video of this that Ethan Mollick posted and in that one, the sequences are longer and they do appear to demonstrate a fair amount of consistency. The clips don't backtrack in the summary video on the paper's home page because they're showing a number of district environments but you only get a few seconds of each.

If I studied the longer one more closely, I'm sure inconsistencies would be seen but it seemed able to recall presence/absence of destroyed items, dead monsters etc on subsequent loops around a central obstruction that completely obscured them for quite a while. This did seem pretty odd to me, as I expected it to match how you'd described it.
Honest question, what should they be paid? Its purely manual labor, there is not much if anything to innovate or be creative. The output is fairly binary, clean or not clean. I am all for fair wages but how do we know if $10 is the right price or too low?

Interesting how serious questions get so quickly downvoted. I am genuinely curious how you would price a dishwasher when the output is important but the work itself is fairly low value. Line cooks, chefs and most of the rest of the crew are not making much money themselves. Most Michelin restaurants are happy to breakeven for dinner service but make lots of profit on the catering, special events, books, branding area. I am not saying $10 is the right price only asking how do you price it when the industry as a whole does not pay well for back of house. We could say raise labor costs but most are already running razor thin margins.
That is an old theory that has been largely debunked by the book I suggested and the evidence that has surfaced recently. Not only that, but Israel was the only country in the planet that successfully showed to be able to traverse the mediterranean while avoiding completely radar detection flying thousands of miles at extremely low altitudes in Operation Wooden Leg[1] and some others.

Also Amato's words are quite meaningless as he never had an idea, and he was not prime minister at the time.

This reportage[2], albeit in Italian, aired by Italian state tv last year, starts by interviewing the person you quote Giuliano Amato, and he clearly points out that the government has never had a clear idea on who shoot it down. It goes into huge detail on all the elements behind the Israeli thesis and it's the only credible one for which he have substantial proofs, from the fact that France used civilian airplanes to transport uranium, to the fact that special cargo was indeed used on the very same flight (but in a different date), interviews with Israeli and French officials and Italian civilians that had seen fighter jets above the cost of Calabria and all pointed to Israeli fighters (albeit, not the F15s used in Operation Wooden Leg).

A brain is more energy efficient than a chip, but how a couple of cells connected to wires has more economic sense than a chip with gallizions of transistors?
It's okay-ish for when you need to ask questions. But we're trending towards gating binaries and general documentation there too.

Discord must be aware that their secret ingredient is that people are "admins" over others, and that people actually quite like being in power and having a different colored name. And all that without the technical barrier of having to setup forums or Teamspeak (not that such gatekeeping kept terrible people from being admins)

Wasn't Operation Gomorrah a response to the Operation Blitz that was
conducted by Germany earlier?

I can see that German Blitz is reported to cause 40.000 civilian deaths,
similar to Allied Gomorrah. So if anything would be shocking, it should
probably be Blitz, not Gomorrah?
Home Assistant Presence Simulation
All vehicles that can be steered have that possibility, even cars: If there is a steering wheel, it is possible to deliberately crash the vehicle. If it is possible to shut down engines, it can also be used for malicious purposes. In other words, there is always the possibility of using everything for malicious purposes.

On the other hand, the ability to shut down a system that has failed can save everyone on board.

There are approximately 40,000,000 flights each year. Almost all occur without incident. In the entire 120-year history of aviation, only a few accidents have resulted from the pilot intentionally crashing the plane.

The only significant effect I've noticed is some constipation, and that's solved by psyllium fiber supplements (not the ones that also contain a separate laxative, mind you). Taken in capsule form these have no effect on taste or texture of food or drink.
Well HackerNews is one feed in my reader.
And remember how a lot of people not even related to the field were predicting ChatGPT 16 by this time a year ago?
Launch costs for a Falcon 9 are about near 70 million dollars now which is also the estimated production price of the rocket including launch. So it seems they are not making a big loss even when the first stage explodes on the first landing attempt. It's already 'paid off' after one single use.

Price estimates of a first stage are in the 15-20m dollar range so every reused stage will net them about that (minus refurbishing costs) as a bonus.

Not mixing list of todos with strategy
So at this point are you admitting fully that you have no evidence for your claim? Your entire bet is conjecture?

> That does not mean the hypothesis is true, it only means you haven't falsified it.

Correct. You can't prove a negative, you've only just figured this out? After I listed TWO simple examples that could be found in an introductory philosophy class?! In the Wikipedia article consisting of a couple of paragraphs I linked you?

PLEASE JUST READ. PLEASE JUST READ. PLEASE JUST READ. PLEASE JUST READ.

You can't prove negative statements. I want you to admit this so I know you understand, now repeat after me: "You can't prove negative statements."

I know this is likely wasted on you, but here goes:

You can't prove the hypothesis: "There does not exist an unobservable teapot in the orbit of Jupiter."

For the SAME reason I can't prove the hypothesis: "LLMs can never eventually be used for generating good incident reports."

For the SAME reason I can't prove the hypothesis: "God doesn't exist."

For the SAME reason I can't prove the hypothesis: "A unicorn does not exist at the center of the Earth."

I fully admit this in the comment you've supposedly read.

This is why the burden of proof lies on the person making the positive claim (this is you).
I've been using RSS-to-email since forever. I now run my own RSS-to-email service.

I filter (almost all) of them into folders that don't notify and then they are there ready to read across all of my devices that are logged into my email.

I find that email clients are quite suited to RSS reading. They have folders, searching, filtering and unread/read/deleted tracking that is synced cross-device. And for the few feeds that I want to be "urgent" it is easy to send them to my inbox.

I have written about my workflow in the past:

Meta to shut down its Spark AR platform
we are hearing about this now because this phase is over i guess.

it was the required economic play when everyone (everyone who matters in finance, not me or you) could get zero interest loans.

you could even see the bubble following the zero rates... it starts with Japanese funds, then usa with the flagship case of sbv, and now dying out on Netherlands.

I'd short anything remotely public from any funds still doing this play, and there are a lot of slow movers.

We use a variant of git+markdown as well, but it has a problem when non technical people want to contribute to it. Some non technical testers or product people don't know a lot about git or markdown making it non trivial to contribute.
If the full time wage can't result in a decent living (housing, food, medical expenses, clothes, feed and clothe a kid or two, and put away a little on the side) then it clearly is too little.

If you have a hot path with a lot of branch mispredictions that can impact performance. Could be as simple as Microsoft found a dumb if inside a tight loop.
this article is informative but misleading. i do the testing at a big ISP (your packets go over us for at least something). we test traceroute. we complain to vendors when traceroute doesn't work right. we do investigate weird traceroutes.
It certainly seemed like a pop quiz the last time I took it. I just can't imagine it's useful outside ranking people arbitrarily for the purposes of shrinking a hiring pool or some similar need.

You can claim this about any non-slurs too. I actually would argue that most sites don’t do any kind of blanket ban, perhaps social sites. Queer as a slur has American roots. Most of the world doesn’t acknowledge such illogical frailty.
A diffusion model cannot be a game engine because a game engine can be used to create new games and modify the rules of existing games in real time -- even rules which are not visible on-screen.

These tools are fascinating but, as with all AI hype, they need a disclaimer: The tool didn't create the game. It simply generated frames and the appearance of play mechanics from a game it sampled (which humans created).
Read Copilot, I build it myself, I love the AI power part, because I have too many RSS feeds and most of them are not my native language

People buy all kinds of stuff online, why not this device? Unless the game uses HDCP the hdmi rip is not possible to detect. And the usb controller could even forward the properties of the connected device. These devices exist as we speak
This was the basis for the reasoning:

The map 1 has 2'518 walkable map units.
There are 65536 angles.

2'518*65'536=165'019'648

If you capture 165M frames, you already cover all the possibilities in terms of camera / player view, but probably the diffusion models don't even need to have all the frames (the same way that LLMs don't).
Its a good thing. When the printing press was invented there were probably monks and scribes who thought that this new mechanical monster that took all the individual flourish out of reading was the end of literature. Instead it became a tool to make literature better and just removed a lot of drudgery. Games with individual style and design made by people will of course still exist. They'll just be easier to make.
Funnily enough, I've recently been looking at email-to-RSS to clear some newsletters out of my inbox :-)
You might be surprised. Generating views from novel angles based on a single image is not novel, and if anything, this model has more than a single frame as input. I’d wager that it’s quite able to extrapolate DOOM-like corridors and rooms even if it hasn’t seen the exact place during training. And sure, it’s imperfect but on the other hand it works in real time on a single TPU.
It's like you guys have never even heard of 'body on a chip'

To be fair, the person could still use Google Fonts, but just download the font and host it themselves. The font licenses allow this.

Holy cow, I had not heard of this one-man German manually guided rocket before, the Bachem Ba-349 Natter:

> Rocket-powered, it took off vertically from a launch pole, and was guided at near-transonic speed by an autopilot. At the last moment, the pilot took over and aligned the nose, which was filled with unguided rockets, at an enemy bomber. After the one-time attack, the Natter split in half. The engine parachuted down for re-use, the nose section was discarded, and the pilot (who was “spit out” of the open nose by inertia as the tail section parachute opened) separately parachuted to safety.

Truly a weapon of desperation. Imagine being asked to climb into one of those things...

> Only 36 Ba-349s were built and only one flew one time, killing the pilot.
> We don't know what generates human consciousness. But we know the brain is a key part of it. At what point does a bunch of lab grown human neurons become conscious?

Why just human neurons for a human consciousness?

We know very little of what sparkle consciousness but the consensus seems to be that most living things experience it with varying degree. Even though most of us, conscious humans, are absolutely fine with millions of mammals being slaughtered without much care for their feelings.
