He is highly knowledgeable in his field.

He's very abrasive in his conduct but don't mistake it for incompetence.

Even the "AI can't do video" thing was blown out and misquoted because discrediting people and causing controversy fuels more engagement.

He actually said something along the lines of it "not being able to do it properly" / everything he argues is valid from a scientific perspective.

The joint embeddings work he keeps professing has merit.

I think the real problem is that from a consumer perspective, if the model can answer all their questions it must be intelligent / from a scientist's perspective it's not capable for the set of all consumers so it's not intelligent.

So we end up with a dual perspective where both are correct due to technical miscommunication and misunderstanding.
Is that the only explanation though? Could proximity explain things? It is my private theory that German and Polish having had so much geographic overlap explains some common features, despite being from different families.
There are however a great deal of things people can do to make the same information available to a wider audience.

Formatting, fonts, colours, structure of argument, visual aids.

Clicking [reader view] on this article aided me immensely in being able to take it in. As one of the many ADHD people who encountered this, the white on black, wide page, and a serifed font were all non-informational aspects of the page that made it difficult to take in.

You are wrong that sometimes there is no tl;dr In the absence of someone putting in the work to make content accessible the emphasis merely falls upon the dr of tl;dr.

No-one requires you to make things for everyone, but you cannot expect to reach everyone without consideration of them either.
I don't argue against compulsory education and minimum standards. I strongly agree that they are an absolute necessity.

I was an outlier. Used to study well while it was interesting - just because I had access to the books and I loved reading. But around 9th grade I lost track of some courses, things stopped making sense, everything started to fall apart - and at some point I just optimized away, starting to solve for working around the compulsion rather than necessity to learn. I still learned things I cared about, but subjects where I had a gap in understanding went sideways.

The compulsion haven't made me learn anything much, but the means to game the system enough to pass through the hurdles. I worked on some skills like writing tiniest cheat sheets (fine motor skill training haha), basic networking to have someone to copy homework from, composing essays without even opening the source material, confidence tricks, breaking into storage rooms, hacking into computer systems and so on.

A valuable social skill set, but probably only for a failing simulacra of a society. (Well, I lived in exactly such a society - one under a post-Soviet curse, so it all fits.)

And while those were some fun times, I hate how I had totally lost a lot of opportunities to learn many useful things when I had all the time in the world for it - and way more capable brains than I have in my thirties or forties. I didn't do it because I just didn't knew that I cared about it. I don't blame anyone, of course - things just happened that way.

So, I strongly disagree with the "doesn't want" bit. Kids do want to learn things. I wanted to. I believe we all normally do - curiosity and desire to learn is humanity's signature trait. But kids cannot steer themselves, so they need guidance. And compulsion does a poor job as such.

But I agree that catering to the outliers is not efficient in present day real-life conditions. Probably not just inefficient, but outright impossible until(if) we ever reach post-scarcity. I even wrote a regret: "[approach] that doesn't work because it requires ideal environment". The compulsion is basically all we realistically have. I just made a note how it's a shame that it's a poor man's solution to a problem that ideally should be solved very differently.

Restic is great! It has worked flawlessly for me for several years.

Anyone knows if there is plan to add Reed Solomon erasure coding, just in case there will be errors in repository? Something like Par2.

Asymmetric encryption could also be useful in some situations. Perhaps they could just use Age for the asymmetric encryption backend (unfortunately Age offers only 128 bits of security in its symmetric encryption, so it’s not recommended for long term storage, because of the save-now decrypt-later attack). But I expect a stable quantum resistant plug-in appearing next year or so.
Ask HN: How do you transport telepresence robots as quickly as people?
If you are sick and can't go to work, for example, how would you transport your telepresence robot to your workplace?

Note that if you are a real estate agent, your workplace could be all over the city, such as at various open houses.
A killer feature rustic has over restic is built-in support for .gitignore files. So all your dependencies and build output is automatically ignored in your backups.
> Christensen, along with partner Randy Suess,[2] members of the Chicago Area Computer Hobbyists' Exchange (CACHE), started development during a blizzard in Chicago, Illinois, and officially established CBBS four weeks later, on February 16, 1978. CACHE members frequently shared programs and had long been discussing some form of file transfer, and the two used the downtime during the blizzard to implement it.[3][4][5]

I feel like many of us programmers here could do with a blizzard, weeks without work to just build things. If you're like me, so often you're so busy it's hard to ever stop and just build things for fun, for play.
A UI that might be relatively easy for the road problem: when you right click on an empty tile, in the left hand tile selector show all the tiles that would be "valid" in that position. You'd have to add metadata about how tiles hook up, but you wouldn't need to get all fancy about constraints and stuff, or picking from several valid options.
I thought they'd also modified revisions to have a limit, instead of unlimited. Even when 'enabled', it's not how the rest of the wp installs would behave (iirc). Likely there was some code change there to enable that restriction.
-mis'li gecmis zaman or "inferential past tense" is "inferential mood" and "past tense".

Essentially old school people categorised tenses out of thin air; and modern linguists define tenses as "time reference",mood as "modality signalling" that is "relationship to the reality / truth" and aspect as "expression of how something extends over time". So aspect doesn't apply here.

So -mis'li gecmis zaman is a tense and a mood. Sometimes.

Sometimes it is something altogether different such as mirativity (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirativity).

PS: I have to say, I'm surprised your handle in HN isn't @ssg :)
> And it is then, perhaps, that a subtle truth begins to emerge: the only thing we truly possess, the only thing we might, with enough care, exert some mastery over, is our mind

Well, that's not true at all.

When people make sweeping simple statements about matters that can't possibly be trivial - it makes me wonder how much most people resemble LLMs.

I'm sympathetic to spiritual matters but the field is littered with people who are deeply confused.
>> in the average you’ll be fitter and live longer

That's sort of the point about low probability events though, it doesn't affect the average but it has a significant impact on the individual.
> Most people using computers would have no chance of making the software they are using.

Building software and selling it is ok. The issue comes comes when you no longer sells it, but rent it instead, which is what the current subscription trend is about. Some are ok with renting, but some prefers to buy it and own the current version. They don't expect the seller to maintain it for free (which no one does in the real world), and are perfectly fine buying a new version when the old one isn't working anymore, like when people buy a new pair of shoes. But companies like Adobe or Microsoft don't like that.

> Being able to use your computer the way you need without being a programmer is essential for a newcomer.

I agree, but every tool comes with a manual. And I strongly believe that a general purpose computer is a specialized tool. MacOS and Windows are not easy either. They have an army of customer agents, have published lots of training content, and added lots of safeguards to give the illusion that the computer is easy to use. But anyone who does not have a tech person close will struggle. To get what you want is to build a console, like the chromebook.

> For example making websites was something that anybody could do in the past

I think that because there's no money incentive to do it. Everyone is on platform like Facebook, X, or Linkedin.

###

I fully agree on making something easy for people that just want to work on something, and that's why you build specialized interface hiding anything that's not relevant. But there's cases that requires more flexibility and access to behind-the-scenes.
He wouldn't be. AetherSX2 is based on LGPL-era PCSX2 code and license changes don't apply retroactively like that (otherwise, imagine if SDL changed its license to GPL and instantly forced half of PC games to go open source).

It would only prevent him from using code added after the switch to GPL, which is not a problem because AetherSX2 ended development long before PCSX2 switched to the GPL.

Afaik not yet, there was some discussion here: https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/804
I already feel like I'm walking on eggshells just trying to respond to this/you.

I was trying to clarify the scope of your comment "infringes on the right of others to not be regularly subject to spontaneous (or not) conversations that people frequently get emotional over."

I've been living in the United States for over 20 years and I genuinely have never experienced/felt such a strong standard for public conversation, even amongst groups of people from different generations. It doesn't represent my experience at all. In fact, there are cultural memes involving older generations who absolutely do not follow this standard. It really paints the group that you're describing as extremely fragile, and I think that's also an implication of the article.

"If you think that you have a right to behave how you wish" No, I don't think I said that, actually.
Good for you.

I noticed, before I stopped drinking, I never was on a party where I didn't at least got tipsy.

Meaning, all my social skills relied on alcohol. It made it easier to talk to people, date women, etc.

I never learned to do all that sober, and so now that I'm pushing 40, I feel kinda lost at events.

There have been recent studies on the impact of fasting during pregnancy. Here's two:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8377932/
> A total of 215 women were included in the study, 123 women fasted, and 92 women did not fast. Only 2.8% of women knew that fasting is forbidden in pregnancy. Sixty five percent of women reported weakness as the main reason for not fasting. The rate of gestational diabetes, pregnancy induced hypertension and preterm delivery was higher among women who fasted (17% vs 14%, 7% vs 2%, 9% vs 9%) respectively, compared to non-fasting women, but were not found statistically significant. There was no difference in anthropometric measurements of newborn, among both groups.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9931121/
> Fasting during pregnancy was associated with reduced birthweight, in particular for fasting during the first trimester (-352ˑ92g, 95% CI: -537ˑ38; -168ˑ46). Neither dietary composition nor altered sleep were directly associated with birthweight. However, dietary composition during Ramadan outside of fasting hours seems to moderate the fasting-birthweight association, which disappeared for women switching to high-fat diets.
> Canada’s latest guidelines, which Dr. Stockwell advised on, are more stringent: Low-risk drinking is defined as no more than two drinks total per week, regardless of sex.

That's where I'm at. Heading down to one, and then someday zero.

Alcohol is poison, unfortunately. Denying that is, well ... "denial."
To me this is indistinguishable from an account takeover attack executed by an insider. I doubt any prosecutor would be interested, but to my eyes WordPress.org has violated the CFAA by accessing WordPress instances outside the bounds of their authorization. They were authorized to modify WordPress instances in ways ACF prescribed, not in ways of their own choosing.

I'm not saying I'd like to see Mullenweg in chains, I wouldn't. But WP.org's escalating legal exposure is really concerning. I feel like we're at risk of losing a cornerstone of the web. People are talking about a different open source CMS eating their lunch, but I think the more likely scenario is that people move to Square Space, Wix, Facebook, et cetera, and open source content management becomes niche.
I answered what I can but here let me put your mind at rest:

> Should matt have such a veto power over what the community wants? Put another way, the community has tolerated matt's behavior, but he keeps digging more and more – how do we stop his bad behavior?

Am I sitting on some regulatory board? What this got to do with me? if I had to propose anything it'd be form a board from all major contributors to solve this conflict and reach a resolution

> "tolerated" by who? The community embraced WPEngine and their contributions to the community. It's matt that the community can't tolerate.

No, Matt supported and invested in them for years, before you and "the community" even heard about them. He was the one there from the very beginning.
There is some dispute on whether all those accusations were true, or politically motivated slander. Sure he did evil things by our standards, but there's no certainty whether he was that much worse than other rulers of that time. Taking slaves and hanging people alone isn't that special for the era.

Show HN: Pinterest but for CLI Commands
I recently made a project i really wanted to have for a long time. A single place for people to find, share and save cli commands.

Really looking for feedback. What would you like to see in a tool like this? What other categories should be supported? I'm thinking Tmux and Python next if the community wants it.

Feel free to contribute and let me know your first reactions!
Any studies done on potential health effects due to Ramadan will need to deal with the issue of noncompliance, i.e. to what degree do people observing Ramadan actually stick to the fast and not “cheat” at all. But I can imagine that due to the religious significance of the fast, you likely won’t get accurate self-reports of noncompliance. It would also be hard to conduct an accurate observational study since the subjects’ behavior will change due to being observed, again, because of the religious aspects. Without good noncompliance data, I’d be skeptical of any firm conclusions.
It seems good, and there's an emacs version, altough simpler than auctex.

Not having the preview in the code buffer, isn't a dealbreaker, especially when typst is so fast, but it's still a useful feature.

The part of the packages I wasn't talking about a tex feature but an emacs one. When you import a package, it'll usually add environments or macros (in typst i believe they are called commands). Emacs would recognize thay you imported a package and with a shortcut you are able to quickly insert a command without writing it manually (because that's too much time... Like a template) It also recognizes the document type for inserting sections, and whether you are or not inside a math environment.

Albeit, looking a bit more in typst I think it's as mandatory as in latex. Commands tend to be simpler and shorter, especially sections. So maybe it wouldn't impact as hard as I had thought.

For references, using bib files, it would be almost as good as latex.

The auto labeling is useful for align envs or itemizes. AucTeX adds a label to each item or equation automatically. Again, not a dealbreaker, but would be great.

Reading a bit more, it seems that typst is a bit more different that what I had thought. I will not switch till cetz is more mature or I find another alternative.

Maybe I'll remake my Cv in typst just to try it out (+ my cv is horrible)
Sorry, but I wasn’t making a straw man: the GP I responded to explicitly made the point that they wanted a manycore monster CPU to speed up compiling their entire OS from scratch.

If all you’re talking about is compiling a few targeted packages for customization or performance reasons, that’s absolutely a reasonable and sensible approach to things.

My question was targeted at the GP’s use case which I wholeheartedly believe is a largely senseless waste of time, effort, CPU cycles, and money.
Depends where you live. ‘Moderate drinking’ varies a lot in different cultures.

probably a generational thing, I process that and other common texting/internet abbreviations exactly like normal words.
SI, Scheduler, GC, Flavor, EH, Compiler, TV, etc all date back to before Symbolics entered the picture. And if you don't see that in System 99 .. then you must not be looking very hard since they are explicitly mentioned there. You mention a bunch of things that are also _not_ part of Genera, specifically bunch of Ivory stuff -- which is just the processor target.

> Well enough that it is able to run a lot of its software written in Common Lisp. It's able to run stuff like PCL, ASDF, ITERATE, ...

No it is not. You are thinking of Portable Genera.

> System 99 is from 1984 (?), Symbolics started in 81/82. Open Genera appeared 1992/93. You are ignoring a full decade of development.

System 99.32 is from 1987, which continued via LMI into System 130. Genera, or before when it got forked, is from 1978 when it got forked from System 78 or there about being re-branded into System 200. All three (four if you count TI -- which did quite more in renaming things making it hard to follow) with parallel development going on from there into the early 1990s.

Genera is a Lisp Machine system based on the work done at MIT, where most of the guts still the same. To the point that how you rebootstrap the system is the same, how the core areas look work, how the scheduler works, how the windowing system works, how flavours works, etc.

Open Genera did very little on top of Genera at that, mostly targeting and making it work on the Ivory. You are purposefully conflating Portable Genera, Open Genera and Genera.
Or just throw an error.

See also `process.on('exit', ...)`; you can conditionally set process.exitCode in it (only if there was no other failure) if you want.

Want to try again? It's so arbitrary, I'm good. "49% would be acceptable, 51% - hah!". Nobody dare modify/test 'glibc' or any of the precious libraries.

Show HN: I built Bibliou – a platform for book lovers to read, share and connect
After 5 months of coding and tweaking, I’m excited to introduce Bibliou, a social media platform dedicated to book enthusiasts. With Bibliou, you can:

-Read and upload books

-Share what you've read and discover new reads from others

-Connect with fellow book lovers, make friends, and see what they’re reading

-Download books from the community

It's a place where bookworms can geek out about their favorite reads, follow others’ reading journeys, and build meaningful connections over shared literary interests.

I’d love to get feedback on the platform, and if you’re into books, feel free to check it out!

Tibet as a land and people should be made a first class citizen of the physical and political world as well. I am not sure why the Free Tibet movement died out in America and Europe, but less than 75 years ago, China forcibly and illegally took over Tibet and since then has been engaged in a forced reeducation and erasure of the people and their culture (Sinicization):
