From the company, they explained that “the large database of Cramer, which covers thousands of formulas for its fragrances, allows the AI of Notco, Giuseppe, acquire this information and generate top -quality aromas at once, doing the process much faster and more cheap. ”

The company created in Chile, Notco has become one of the main vegetarian food companies, becoming one of the main unicorns in Latin America, reaching the value of more than US $ 1.5 billion.

But, now the brand will venture into the field of perfumes using artificial intelligence, in a project that will join Cramer, provider of flavors and fragrances in Latin America.

In this initiative, Giuseppe AI will be used, the artificial intelligence tool prepared by Notco, where they will try to elaborate novel fragrances with such technology.

“The generative AI is usually used for images, videos and texts, but Notco goes further, using AI to generate emotions through the smell. Before, creating a personalized fragrance took weeks or months, now with the experience of Cramer's perfume and our genii, we can do it in seconds and do it accessible to many more actors in the market, ”said the CTO and co -founder of Notco, Karim Pichara , according to pulse.

In addition to this, from the company, they explained that “the large Cramer database, which covers thousands of formulas for its fragrances, allows the AI of Notco, Giuseppe, acquire this information and generate top -quality aromas of a top quality aromas of a Only, doing the process much faster and more cheap. ”

"In fact, in a blind test, Notco tested 13 different formulas created by their AI with real perfume , they added.

In this sense, Picara stressed that this project is "the result of combining Giuseppe with the knowledge and experience of Cramer" and that "our technology processes fragrance information from the molecular structure of the volatile components, to the sensory description of the aroma in language in language natural. We have three patents that have resulted from the development of this technology. ”

“Understanding the aroma from the verbal description and molecular information, Giuseppe creates aromas of conceptsbstract concepts and emotions, such as the smell of Christmas, the summer parties at sunset or the fresh spring mornings. In addition, we are breaking barriers by generating formulas never created before, allowing companies to innovate and customize their products more disruptively and efficiently, ”he said.
The real question is why they'd have to be aware.

It's entirely possible that those of us who pay attention to this are a vanishing minority compared to the cultural momentum of Google as the default search provider and a dominant provider of email/office SaaS.

But even if dissatisfaction is growing, the institional momentum is just so huge that it's very likely Google simply doesn't have the capacity to sense any brand damage even if it were actually occurring at any significant scale. You'd need to have people whose role included a duty to pay attention to this with systems for measuring it reporting to people who take them seriously. Google's never needed those people. It came into the world with a halo of value, primarily knowing the challenges of demand and growth rather than attrition. Much of its management and professional staff are probably largely drawn from the ranks of those who have known more success than challenge, and they are rewarded in such a way that they not only have little incentive to behave differently they may actually have an atrophied sense of the possibility that different might be important, even if they were aware of cultural momentum shifts and were willing/able to persuade others at Google to change how things are done in an enormously successful place.

Like Bill Gates said, success is a terrible teacher. Why would enough people at Google think Google has crucial lessons to learn?

1. Forking:
The license explicitly prohibits forking. Section 5 states:
"No Forking: You may not create, maintain, or distribute a forked version of the software."

2. Making changes:
You are allowed to make modifications, but only for private use. Section 3 states:
"You are granted the right to Modify the software for private use only."

3. Submitting pull requests:
While the license doesn't use the term "pull request" specifically, it does encourage contributions. Section 4 states:
"Contribution to Project: You are encouraged to contribute improvements, enhancements, and bug fixes back to the project. Contributions must be submitted to the official repository and will be reviewed and incorporated at the discretion of the maintainers."

However, there's a potential conflict here. The license prohibits distributing modified versions (Section 5: "No Distribution of Modified Versions"), which could be interpreted to include submitting a pull request, as that involves sharing your modifications.

In summary, this license:
- Does not allow forking
- Allows modifications for private use only
- Encourages contributions to the official repository
- Prohibits distribution of modified versions

Given these terms, you cannot fork the code in the traditional sense. You can make changes locally for private use, and you are encouraged to submit contributions to the official repository. However, the process for doing so is not clearly defined, given the restrictions on distributing modified versions.

If you want to contribute, you would likely need to submit your changes directly to the official repository without creating a public fork. The exact mechanism for this would need to be clarified by the project maintainers.
> but calling that "extracting rents" feels like pure rhetoric.

How? Because you just spelled out oligopolistic rent seeking behavior to a T...?

Oh but you like it because you get a kickback. Jeez. Credit cards are literally a tax on the poor but people don't want to hear that. Don't get me wrong, I use the hell out of my credit card, and feel guilty knowing that system specifically means less well off folks are paying higher prices to subsidize card usage.
It’s a cache; it was going to expire after a TTL anyway.
Not stranger than my experience with openai. I got banned from DELL-3 access when it first came because I asked in the prompt about generating a particle moving in magnetic field of a forward direction and decays to two other particles with a kink angle between the particle and the charged daughter.

I don't recall exact prompt but it should be something close to that. I really wonder what filters they had about kink tracks and why? Do they have a problem with Beyond standard model searches /s.
I am just wrong due to incomplete info. The page I originally clicked on only had about half of the full catalog on it, and the way it was constructed I presumed it to be exhaustive.

Which is no worse than the situation in a dynamically typed language where every field in every object could be optional.

Dynamic typing advocates sometimes miss that statically typed languages don't force you to encode every invariant in the type system, just those that seem important enough.

Or, if you really want to go overboard, you could use a dependently typed language and write functions that only accept cars with a specific combination of fields not being empty. But that's typically not worth the complexity.

That's ahistorical. The enclosure movement is seen by many as the origins of capitalism [1].

Private property is an enclosure. Intellectual property is an enclosure [2]. All of this is rent-seeking behaviour.

The story of Tetris is such a great example of all that capitalism actually does in practice: licensing and sub-licensing deals. The game was actually created by a few Russians. Everything else was just enclosures.

Not to mention that the point of a lot of these stories was to not advance the frontier in that particular direction.
The main reason I use credit cards is having my account compromised.

It happened once to my debit card when I was 20, and I went without food for a few weeks. Thank God for food pantries.

Ever since, I've used MasterCard for everything. They might be an evil monopoly, but fixing fraud is stupendously easy, and becomes not my problem with one mouse click.
It's probably a good idea if you can find a self-employed expert for that specialty (like a decorator or kitchen builder) and have them make recommendations on what to get where. There's a (real, ahem) risk that you'll get a bad in-store salesperson that only cares about your card swipe.
> What does a maintainer realistically do?

Debian maintainers have to coax upstream packages to behave like other Debian packages and use supported linked dependencies. This covers everything from log and config file locations, startup scripts patching dependencies to match the versions supported by the release, backporting security updates, and documenting.

I trust Debian (and in turn Debian maintainers) more than I trust the upstream developer of lib-random-4-dev. I only ever had to build a custom package from source a handful of times.
Makes sense. I'm mostly a Linux person myself, but strongly prefer a Mac laptop over a Windows laptop.

And for those that just want SSID, try either of these

ipconfig getsummary en0 | grep -e '[^B]SSID' | cut -d " " -f5
ipconfig getsummary en0 | grep -e '[^B]SSID' | sed -E 's/^.*: (.*)/\1/g'

Second will be better if your SSID has a space in it for some reason. You'll also be able to grab the domain name if you want it for similar reasons.
Great project! Do you support geocoding with a nominatim api?
I have an original Chromecast and it still works, though pairing it with a new TV is a bit of a pain.

The new Google TV is more like a smart TV without the TV. It has apps you install. It's much more complex and not the same thing at all. I was disappointed.

But then again every company discontinues products. I don't see that as a breach of trust. It's making up a promise they never made and criticizing them for it.

Most X users will just post a screenshot of the tweet, breaking accessibility in the process and disassociating the original author from the thread against their will.

This isn't always a good thing, as it leads to people being surprised by crowds of strangers suddenly screaming at them and not being able to see the source of their anger.

Some people do this as a "preventative measure", so that their post still makes sense when the original tweet is deleted.

You could upload blocklists.
Yes, they should!

I'm not implying anything is broken about the process, but they're clearly timing their actions around the election. As just one example: out of the 36 Antitrust press releases from the Attorney General's office (the tags on this press release) [0], 13 (36%) were in 2024 and 7 (19%) were just in the months of August and September of this year. A regular cadence of 36 Antitrust announcements since the administration started would be <1 per month, so 3.5/mo over the past two months (one of which isn't even over) is a clear outlier. There's some allowance to be made for the time it takes to put a lawsuit together but not enough to account for that large a difference.

Again, that's not to imply anything about the ethics or motives of the people involved, nor to say they were sitting on their hands until now. All I'm saying is it's a reality of our political system that sometimes the answer to "why now?" is "because we saved it up for the election".

> I never understand people who seem to think any amount of jail time is trivial.

There's "jail" (colloquial for generic/television "prison" and all the real and fictional horrors that evokes), and then there's "minimum security womens' prison". These are qualitatively different things, and Ms Ellison is headed for the latter.

> I wouldn’t serve 30 days in jail for a billion dollars.

Interesting. I suspect that for a lot less than that, most people would even consider serving 30 days in a supermax. Or solitary confinement.

We have a few regular posters here on HN who have spent much more than 30 days in some version of "prison". I am not one of them, so my thoughts are of little value, but I would be very curious to hear theirs.
The Bitcoin was only worth $620,000 at the time though, and he only was able to do so because he stumbled upon a bug in the Silk Road, so it wasn't premeditated. That's very different from intentionally gambling with billions of dollars from your customer's money like Ellison or SBF.

The post title at time of writing, "Missouri is about to execute a man even the prosecution believes is innocent", overstates the case for innocence. From the article:

Other evidence that helped convict Williams “remains intact,” the attorney general said. “The victim’s personal items were found in Williams’s car after the murder. A witness testified that Williams had sold the victim’s laptop to him. Williams confessed to his girlfriend and an inmate in the St. Louis City Jail, and William’s girlfriend saw him dispose of the bloody clothes worn during the murder,” the attorney general’s office said.

Ask HN: Going to tech interviews for a 3rd party shop?
My LinkedIn profile has my contact info, so it's not uncommon that I get contacted for random things. Recently I received an email from a dev shop, complimenting me on specifics about my work experience.

Their proposal is that I perform in tech interviews to help land projects for them. They handle all the client prospecting, and do all the project management and coding. Beyond the interviews, I can be involved with the actual work as much or little as I want. We'd split any profits 50-50.

It seemed like the kind of thing that could be legit, unethical, or possibly a scam.

- If there's full transparency with the hiring employer, then ok, it's legit.

- But why would I be involved in the first place? If the employer/client thinks I'm overseeing the project, then there's some deception involved.

- Also you've probably heard of developers working as full-time employees at multiple jobs, which is clearly unethical. It didn't sound like that's what this email was proposing, but sometimes you don't know exactly where the line is drawn until you go down that path.

- Alternatively, it could be a scam aimed at me. I've heard of fake job offers that get all your personal information, incl. SSN and bank account (supposedly for direct deposit), presumably for identity theft. Again, this seems unlikely but you never know until you go further along.

Have any of you heard of similar arrangements to this? If so, how did it work?
Yeah I was like "surely it can't be that easy." So I went to try, and no, surely it is not.
I'm not tech enough to challenge you on that but in practice most apps demand far more than they need and users generally click yes. If I don't I get annoying reminders every time and feature restrictions. Like my app that comes with smart watch. At some point I guess most will say take it can stop bothering.

I don't follow what you mean by "give or don't" isn't that how Android works? Like I give file system or drive access to some app so it can pick pictures. Do I know what else it does with that permission?! Just have to trust.

> JD Vance has approximately as much policy control in a Trump administration as Kamala Harris would.

VPs don’t have “policy control” but they do have access to the President and the opportunity to influence them. If Trump wins, Vance will be meeting with Trump regularly, and have the opportunity to try to talk Trump into things - I doubt Vance will always succeed, but he probably will sometimes. Whereas a defeated Harris won’t be meeting Trump regularly and so will lack the same opportunity.
Oracle do. Others will probably follow, though I expect the smaller players are more reasonable to interact with.
Id love to understand how unemployment benefits discourage working more than a UBI. Either you need to work to survive or you don't.

I've read some comments here recently that suggests people feel like they have a right to a nice life after being born. As I get older I see humans more like any other animal born into an uncaring universe out in nature. You have to get out of that borrow, hunt and forage to survive. It's not the responsibility of every other human to have food delivered to your burrow.

The FOSS clone was called CMUCL. There was no Lisp Operating System for "normal" hardware at all (proprietary or not), this was the next best thing. For a good Lisp-based development system one also does not need to make it an "operating system".

CMUCL was basically licensed as public domain. It was based on the stripped down version of Lisp Machine Lisp, called Common Lisp and it ran on UNIX systems. It came with its own IDE built around an EMACS clone called Hemlock.
Sounds like the criminal was due to be released recently.
