I hope you're supporting the VTT format rather than introducing yet another "standard" format.

If the VTT format is lacking, then please work to get that format extended so we have a better format rather than fragmenting yet another format.

As someone who owns a few different dungeon drafting tools, it's a real pain when different formats don't work well together. Lighting seems to be the biggest issue where drafting in one editor and importing in another will lose lighting settings.

In any case, I can assure you the implication you object to wasn’t intended, and my sincere apologies for writing a comment that appears to give it. Thank you for explaining what’s wrong with what I wrote.

I’m autistic (if that wasn’t apparent), and implications aren’t my territory. Take what I wrote in the most literal sense possible.

I can’t edit that comment, but I’ll surely try to be more mindful next time I write about this.
No, it’s an adjective to describe a person. Someone who is “awake” to the structural oppression around them.

I guess you could call structural oppression “identity politics”, but that seriously feels like a dog whistle.
It's even more relevant to AI, because the differences between the models (not just training data) may make them pretty uniquely suited to some areas, with any competition being markedly worse (in that area), or at least markedly different. And you only have maybe dozens, not billions, to choose from.
The clearest way to understand it is that VS Code is open core software.

There's actually a lot in that core, especially when you compare it to other open core products (ex. Gitlab). Enough that you can fork it and have a viable MVP for your own IDE (as Cursor, Gitpod, and many others have done)

But you shouldn't ever be under the impression that you fork will be identical to VS Code.

Frankly I think developers have benefited a lot from this. There's actually a strong foundation for others to innovate on their own IDEs without sinking years into basic R&D, and it's much better than the alternative era when ~all the user-friendly IDEs were proprietary.
Democrats (especially in California) are somewhat to the right of socialist parties in Europe, and of course they’re neoliberal. But on most non-economic social issues, they’re quite far to the left compared to most European countries. So it really depends on what you consider more important to the left.

https://PropScout.io - Investment Property Deals via Email

My business partner and I spent so much time analyzing hundreds of properties to understand if the numbers work for investment properties. We then built a workflow that sends regular emails with a table with all the numbers calculated for us, based on rent estimates.

We’ve onboarded a couple of people so far and are onboarding more investors and agents next week.

We also added a red flag analyzer using LLMs for each property which we hope to expand into hard to reach data (government records) as well as the data we pull from public sites.

Feel free to DM me or sign up on our website and we’ll reach out. We’re iterating a lot and value your feedback!

Thanks
1. See my other reply in this thread about the potential link between and high comorbidity of PTSD and schizophrenia.

2. The argument brought up was that brain 'damage' "just is", and cannot be reversed; which is where any neuroplasticity research can be used to show that it is not that simple, and that even brain structures can and do continue to change over the course of a lifetime, not only on the level of transmitters.

3. The positive effects of psychotherapy for schizophrenia are well researched.
Gave it a bunch of technical papers and standards, and while it's making up stuff that just isn't true, this is to be expected from the underlying system. This can be fixed, e.g., with another internal round of fact-checking or manual annotations.

What really stands out, I think, is how it could allow researchers who have troubles communicating publicly to find new ways to express themselves. I listened to the podcast about a topic I've been researching (and publishing/speaking about) for more than 10 years, and it still gave me some new talking points or illustrative examples that'd be really helpful in conversations with people unfamiliar with the research.

And while that could probably also be done in a purely text-based manner with all of the SOTA LLMs, it's much more engaging to listen to it embedded within a conversation.
Being able to automate words, I think, will reveal how important actual human connection is.

> We always start with a clear overview of the topic, you know, setting the stage. You’re never left wondering, “What am I even listening to?” And then from there, it’s all about maintaining a neutral stance, especially when it comes to, let’s say, potentially controversial topics.

Oh yeah, this is exactly why I listen to Oxide's podcast! (This is a joke. They often launch into topics with no explanation or context, and are unabashedly opinionated.)

Different strokes for different folks...

We all seek different kinds of quality; I don't find Peruns videos to have any quality except volume. He reads bullet points he has prepared, and makes predictable dad jokes in monotone, re-uses and reruns the same points, icons, slides, etc. Just personally, I find it really samey and some of the reporting has been delayed so much it's entirely detached from the ground by the time he releases. It's a format that allows converting dense information and theory to hour long videos, without examples or intrigue.

Personally, I prefer watching analysis/sitrep updates with the geolocations/clips from the front/strategic analysis which uses more of a presentation (e.g. using icons well and sparingly). Going through several clips from the front and reasoning about offensives, reasons, and locations is seems equally difficult to replicate as Peruns videos, which rely on information density.

I do however love Hardcore history - he adds emotion and intrigue!

I agree with your overall hope for quality and different approaches still remaining stand out from AI generated alternatives.
This doesn't take into account any binaries that are in users home directories or locally installed. So for example anything compiled as part of a python virtualenv for a developer or anything they built in rust using cargo etc.

Yes there are ways to deal with those things, but it doesn't change the fact that this transition is a big deal.
I think it's safe to assume that it's a toy problem. A simple example. Picking apart the example is a poor counterargument. It might be difficult to imagine a specific trivial example, but expressing a convincing example concretely can itself be a major diversion. Unless you're saying you can guarantee that your alternative is always better in all conceivable cases?

Similarly, the existence of others wanting different behavior is also a poor counterargument. The fact that someone wants a Bag doesn't mean that someone else is wrong for wanting an Ordered Set.

About half of English words are one syllable long and most of the rest are two. If it's stressed, it's probably a word.

Stress placement on disyllabic words works at a grammatical level, not just a phonetic one. "To record" and "a record" (reCORD, REcord) have different stress placement because of their grammatical roles (noun/verb).
I fed it some info about my UX mobile app. Some parts are very cringe, extremely positive, but in the end it went on to brainstorm a potential 'next step' feature that was quite creative; letting end-users test-out prototypes during the wire-framing process. Also some more marketing-like text like "It's like drawing on napkin, but the napkin in your phone". I like that.

So as a brainstorming tool, it's a nice low-effort way to get some new perspectives. Compared to the chat, where you have to keep feeding it new questions, this just 'explores' the topic and goes on for 10 minutes.

> It doesn't matter, unless you postulate that the people left behind have zero population growth and constant energy dissipation, which seems unrealistic?

Why does it seem unrealistic? More than that, you only need one of those things. You could have population growth with declining energy consumption if energy use is moved off-planet (even if the population benefits from the off-planet use), or increasing local energy use per-capita if local population is declining, e.g. because the number of people leaving to explore other planets is higher than the population growth rate.

Does that apply in the case of war, which was intended by ‘strategic’? I’m reminded of Australia’s supply of iron to Japan before WWII. Which earned future prime minister Robert Menzies the nickname ‘Pig Iron Bob’.

It's hardly desirable to let rocket debris reenter anywhere - just because China is doing it doesn't mean SpaceX should be free to dump stuff over populated areas.

It's true, but there are more well educated alternative country musicians than one might guess.

Willie Nelson went to Baylor (but didn't finish) and Lyle Lovett has a degree in German literature from Texas A&M. Robert Earl Keen also graduated from A&M. Lucinda Williams's dad is a poet and literature professor. Emmylou Harris went to UNC and Boston University. Hell, even George Straight and Garth Brooks have degrees. That's not quite Rhodes Scholar, but perhaps not entirely expected?
Reminds me of Futurama news stories. Actually, what if NotebookLM could be customized to generate podcasts voiced by Morbo the Annihilator and his co-host Linda van Schoonhoven?

Still, I don’t hold much confidence on podcasts as knowledge transfer tools. It’s a nice gimmick with great voice synthesis, but it feels formulaic and a bit stilted from a knowledge navigation perspective.

>But why would I buy those books or listen to those podcasts that are synthetic affectations of no substance?

A randomly selected NotebookLM podcast is probably not substantial enough on its own. But with human curation, a carefully prompted and cherry-picked NotebookLM podcast could be pretty good.

Or without curation, I would use this on a long drive where audio was the only option to get a quick survey of a bunch of material.
>You mean, the market that is crumbling fast because most people are not professional photographers?

That's the whole point though. The market is crumbling because it no longer exists. Professional photographer are few and far between and they are the only ones that need the features provided by a professional camera.

Compare pictures take on an iPhone to those take on a top of the line F4 from thirty years ago, the iPhone pictures are _much_ better.

The only reason to have a professional camera is to be in full control of all settings, which would make your proposed DSLR without those controls purely a vanity device/big heavy smartphone minus the phone for people who want to show off how much money they have.

While they's always a market for people to show off their wealth, it won't be a useful camera.
"Source-available but not strictly OSS" is, in most cases, not really giving anything of value to the community. You are not free to use it in building your own solutions. At best, it allows easier collaboration with customers.

Open core absolutely is open source. There's a clear and valuable open source core that others can build on to build their own products.

This isn't just hypothetical. As far as I know, no source-available license allows you to actually use it to build your own product. While VS Code has many other products built on the core (including products that lawyers have reviewed closely for compliance).
Sorry to hear that, hope things work out for you! I've enjoyed and appreciated your work!

A book for those who are interested in this viewpoint; though, its a bit technical, its audience is anthropologists.

I agree and disagree, in that, the concept of the "other," which Brin subtly attributes to a crude reading of Hegel, is misused in contemporary academia, in contemporary culture, to create these what can't be said to be other than corruptive ideas like an infinite meakness in the face of what we cannot know about ourselves, but a meakness which is secretly all the more chauvinistic, as it claims, above all, that only we are superior who recognize our "mediocrity," in the face of all those animals, cultures, potentialities of otherness, that fail to do so themselves.

But, of course, Hegel's concept of the "other" is not this way at all. As JN Findlay argued, there is no substantial difference between Godel and Hegel's logic in terms of incompleteness: it is likely that, although the only philosophy which Godel ever adopted was Phenomenology, he would himself not have had any issues with the comparison. It is the "identity of non-identity," its not that you "encounter" the other, its the recognition that the other is already contained in what is non-other; which is to say, in a manner that Godel expressed far more clearly, that all logical systems, all systematic programs, contain elements that cannot be contained in the system, and the discreteness of the world only comes when those elements come to a head, when people are forced to, for Hegel, fight in a conflict to resolve, at the level of the Idea itself, what they cannot be certain of: this is why, science, what you'd think is objective and independent, depends on massive political and social forces: and if the Israeli's, for instance, could not fight their wars, it would be the proof that ideology of faith is more powerful than the ideology of the world, of technological power. The "truth" of a missile only becomes apparent when it hits its target, just in the same way that one cannot know, here on HN especially, how others will think of their comment, until they post it.

It’s not just the side effects that cause people with schizophrenia to be non-compliant with meds. Many people with schizophrenia stop taking meds because they do not think they are sick - anosognosia. It’s why a longer lasting injectable is often recommended over daily oral meds.

While you do not need to understand how useState, or any other hooks work, you do need to know that this piece of code will behave differently from the rest of your javascript. Painfully, when the calling of (most of the) hooks is concerned, React takes away from the developer the ability to write conditional logic. This is both unintuitive and bonkers, and it requires the developer to come up with convoluted techniques for working around this limitation. This is part of what 'understanding of how hooks work' means.
This depends on your definition of “print”. What if your stdout is not a TTY?

Also, if your stdout is a TTY, but your terminal is not ANSI X3.64? You might be able to look up the corresponding escape codes in terminfo based on $TERM (or simply use tput(1)), but the terminal might not even be able to perform those operations. What do you do then?

I built an English-speaking website that helps immigrants settle in Berlin.[0] It has been my full time job for a while. Most English speakers know about it, but it's nearly invisible to Germans, who would also benefit from the content and tools I have worked on.

I'm currently adding an automated AI translation feature to my custom static site generator, so that I can translate the website to multiple languages and reach more people. I'm trying to make the process as seamless and automated as possible, because I'm running this website solo, and there are only so many hours in a day.

It's a surprisingly tricky endeavour! As usual, the first 80% are easy. It's getting the last 20% right that requires a lot of work. There are so many small hurdles. For instance, translating the URL structure and translating the URLs within the content, getting the translations to be accurate, getting the SEO right, translating the templates and the JS tools I've built, keeping the costs low.

I also played with this idea of a Memex [1] a few times already, but I always struggle with the actual usefulness of the data. Most of the time, the greatest fun for me is setting up the systems and seeing it all come together in a single database, but I tend to fall behind as soon as it is manual work to keep something updated.

For location, I found that the easiest and most privacy-friendly way of doing this without wrecking the battery of my main phone was to get a cheap used Android phone with dual GPS (a Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G) on which I have PhoneTrack [2] installed and then pipe the GPS points to a PostGIS database on my local network [3] when I am home.

Mutual disarmament does not work, if you think it would then you might be best served studying human history in warfare and human nature in general.

The proverbial cat is out of the bag. the milk is spilled and you can't unspill it.

disarmament is one of the few ways you can guarantee a nuclear war.

in fact things would go the other way, with cheaper and smaller nuclear technology, newer, more precise and more efficient nuclear weapons are inevitable. Diplomatic deterrence, MAD doctrine and effective countermeasures against delivery systems are practical means of actually reducing the risk of nuclear war.

Even those who are not, will probably develop some sort of schizophrenia due to their marginal lifestyle, but I wonder if it's really a "disease", I feel like it's an adaptation to their environment for people who are more sensitive than others. I feel like the pain is more due to the lack of solutions, especially in a city centre, where it's a constant hell for these guys (and for most any other animal actually, except a few who adapted to that: pigeons, rats, some insects but not the most beautiful ones), just my thought
You forgot quotes. JSON has no date or time types :)
I definitely agree with the idea that we choose to will something! I tried to get that across in the essay, but maybe not as well as I could have.

What I meant between skill and will is that a skill is multivariate, whereas will is more unidimensional: you choose to do something or not.

That unidimensionality levels the playing field a lot. Let’s say someone is struggling to communicate well. They might need to learn and practice having an audible voice, avoiding verbal tickets, and having an understandable line of thought. If someone is struggling to be brave, they just need to practice going for what they believe to be right.

That’s not to say that there’s nothing which increases the probability that one may be brave, but I believe it does ultimately come down to that next decision. You may be more brave by having a better track record of bravery, but it can be washed away with a single cowardly decision. The playing field is much more level.

Regarding wealth, it’s a good point. Perhaps I should have clarified that “success” is relative. Success for someone born into poverty is different than someone born into royalty. I’m focused on the post-adulthood qualities we should focus on to maximize our personally determinable chances of success.

What do you think?
