The "We live in a simulation" argument just started looking a lot more conceivable.
Mullenweg literally said that this was his issue. That’s what kicked off the whole debacle.
If I would take the Lesson literally, we should not even study text to image. We should study how a machine with limitless cpu cycles would make our eyes see something we are currently thinking of.

My point being, optimization or splitting up int subs, before handing over the problem to the machine, makes sense.
The part of the comment I meant to reply to was this: "[...] and stolen what they had previously provided".

You're right about the reviews, users, url, etc, but what was "previously provided" was code with a GPL license. You can't "steal" that.

The list of things to criticise Matt for is long, but you can't accuse him of stealing open source code.
I definitely sleep really good with a thin sheet down to 60F/15C. Below that, yeah I'll put in a blanket.

For reference in 2022 I winter hiked the southern half of the AT, and it was below freezing every night for months. I did have a sleeping bag, but I slept great! I curse/blame my Scandinavian genes. Too pale for the equatorial sun and sleep like a furnace all night.
There is past tense, with 'di' 'diler' postfix. Example: 'dediler' > 'they said'

This one is literally called "past tense with 'miş'".
Example: 'demişler' > 'they supposedly said'.
> Doesn’t open source mean the source is viewable/inspectable?

According to the OSI definition, you also need a right to modify the source and/or distribute patches.

> I don’t know any closed source apps that let you view the source.

A lot of them do, especially in the open-core space. THe model is called source-available.

If you're selling to enterprises and not gamers, that model makes sense. What stops large enterprises from pirating software is their own lawyers, not DRM.

This is why you can put a lot of strange provisions into enterprise software licenses, even if you have little to no way to enforce these provisions on a purely technical level.
Absolutely. Next time you see a free parking spot mentally calculate the rent of ~10m² on that part of the city to understand how much of a subsidy that is. Then multiply by 50 parking spots in a street. Then think how many thousands there are all over the city...
Sure - and that'll work great on titles like Ratchet & Clank [1] or Tiny Tina's Wonderland [2] because art and style are dead and everything must be a mirror-like reflection of reality in order to be a fun game...

It was back in 2013. Oh god… feels like only yesterday but it’s been 11 years :(
Because I disagree with this definition of freeloading. They've offer a free, open source, very popular plugin for Wordpress, according to the Wordpress.org's plugin page, with 2+ million installs.

Wordpress forking and taking over the plugin seems like they've accepted the code/contribution.
Oh, I see. I was somehow under the impression that the simulation was the game the RL agent learns to play (which kinda seemed nonsensical).
When my game starts to look like this, I know it is time to quit hahha, maybe a helpful tool in gaming addiction therapy? The morphing of the gun/skins and the environment (the sandbags) wow. Would like to play this and see what happens when you walk backwards, turn around quick, use ‘noclip’ :D
Thanks, this explains how one trains a translation model but not how this kind of data appears in an organic corpus

Hey, I'm one of the Typst devs and author of the issue.

The reason there is no logging yet is because we want to get it _right_ rather than landing a permanent temporary solution. And there were simply more urgent things to do so far.

Also note that if you use an LSP or the web app, you can inspect the live values in your code simply by hovering over them.
The MLM has no idea what it’s making, where you are in the map, what you left behind, and what you picked up. It can accurately predict what comes next, but if you pick up an item and do a 360° turn the item will be back and you can repeat the process.
Where it gets really interesting is if we can train a model on the latest GTA, plus maybe related real life footage, and then use it to live upgrade the visuals of an old game like Vice City.

The lack of temporal consistency will still make it feel pretty dreamlike, but it won't matter that much, because the base is consistent and it will look amazing.
Can you upload a screen recording? I don’t think I can run the model locally but it’d be super interesting to see what happens if you run into a wall
You don't need full blown workspace, which costs money, you can set up "cloud identity free" and claim the domain.

When you're setting it up, you can choose what to do with any existing accounts that are part of your domain: kick them out or merge them in.
3h, that’s like Hamburg-Berlin, and would not be covered by the Deutschland ticket anyway
I really like this! I have been meaning to get into this space too. I have yet to touch any drone SDK, but I have found the possibilities of developing for and with drones in a lot of sectors quite interesting. Is there a way to contact you?
Single-person made animations and applets became available only ten years ago and still require a programmer. We collectively lived under a rock for ages and entered the world of computers and smartphones few minutes ago. Considering the inertia, you had no time to check if this particular solution works at scale. Why are you so pre-opposed to it?

I can only think of: because nothing works at scale in education and it’s generally slow as hell.
If you're talking about weak widow/orphan support for headings in particular, that will finally be fixed in Typst 0.12.
I was a contractor at a consulting company once who decided to follow this approach. They decided their ideal customers one who wanted a lot of butts in seats, so stopped doing training unless the client also agreed to contracting, and stopped taking small clients.

I had a training gig for reasons to complicated to explain. All they had to do was send out the class notes and bill the customer for three times what I got from teaching the course.

They refused to do it because it did not fit their ideal customer profile.

It took about a year for the company to go under.
A problem with image recognition i can think of, is that any rude categorization of the image, which is millions of pixels will make it less accurate.

With image generation on the other hand, which starts from a handful of words, we can first do some text processing into categories, such as objects vs people, color vs brightness, environment vs main object, etc.
The announcement is totally explicit that data will not be retained.

That sentence is obviously explaining what happens if you try to query outside the retention window: no data will be returned for data before the retention window. That needs to be stated, because there are other possible ways it could work, like the entire operation failing with an error if any portion of the query window is outside the retention window.
(Typst dev here.) That's one of the next big things we plan to work on once Typst 0.12 has shipped. :)
Eyes have a lot of noise too.
Well, an essential part of psychiatric diagnosis is often to notice the presence of a noticeable before/after change. Psychosis, mania, are valid hypothesis that would make a CEO take surprising decision.

I don't see how that belittles the struggle of patients. Having and company and being bipolar is far from life on easy mode.

Greed and incompetence are also valid hypothesis, although don't necessarily need an abrupt change in behavior.

Now you're making me wonder if keyboard firmware could be an attack vehicle.
Honestly, everyone involved in this situation seems terrible.

With my own experience of the WP "community", that isn't a surprise.
There are fewer tests, quizzes, reports and homework assignments in Icelandic grade schools than there used to be, and the results are not great:

Academic performance is somewhat of a burning fire - I'd guess there is less of a translation issue with the article than a cultural and political issue around the topic.
It just seemed incredibly stupid so I wanted to make sure I understood correctly what they meant.

At some point in life, people usually stop believing everything that others “literally said”.
Mice are very different from humans in that they are prey and we are predator. The reason that this is significant is that evolutionary, mice life history is optimalized for more offspring and shorter life, whereas predators are optimized for long life and few offspring. We know since 1993 with the discovery of the daf-2 gene (a nematode insulin receptor) that genetics can drastically affect longevity. However, and this is my own professional hypothesis, in humans we have tuned the genetic dial to max lifespan, whereas in mice and worms it is not. In these animals there is plenty of flexibility left to tune up lifespan, not so in humans. We may see moderate effects due to increased health though.
That post seems to be about forking open source plugins which cost money. From what I can tell they did fork this plugin but are not offering its premium features for free.

Just to preempt people arguing with me, please note that this comment isn't meant to be an ethical defense of them one way or the other, but just a factual correction.
There is very little true competition on UK railways. Most services are run on Government-granted franchises which give a monopoly or at best a duopoly on specific routes.

There are a handful of open-access train operators who operate outside the franchises, but they can't just decide to compete on a route if that route is already covered by a franchise.

To create true competition, the infrastructure and stations would need to be taken into public ownership and the train operators would run whatever services they see fit.
That's also one of Matt's claims. According to WPE's court filings, they claim it was an alternate/fork of WooCommerce's Stripe integration they provided with additional features, and makes them less than ~2000$/mo.

If that claim is false, that's perjury.
Beyond code and money, both of which I believe they contribute - though apparently not enough to satisfy Matt Mullenweg - you could argue that they offer a very straight forward distribution/adoption channel in terms of straightforward infrastructure.

I hate WP Engine - having had first hand dealings with them after they acquired a company I’d spent tens of thousands of dollar with - but nonetheless I fee like there’s probably a pretty strong argument that simple straightforward Wordpress hosting means more people use Wordpress which strengthens the overall ecosystem.

When I first started using Wordpress there was a steep learning curve to get it configured correctly on hosting where stuff wouldn’t break.

I used to pay someone to do that for me, and when they gave up doing that I moved to Flywheel (which was later acquired by WP Engine) and suddenly all of my previous problems with Wordpress from a hosting perspective vanished.

It just worked and the Flyhweel support team was amazing and would even unofficially support the wider implementation of Wordpress (“I changed this and now that thing has broken… I know it’s not your fault but any suggestions?” “Hey, here’s the problem, plus we have fixed it for you!”)

That made me stick with Wordpress for years and build out more sites in Wordpress and recommend it to friends and clients.

Most small businesses (which represents the majority of Wordpress users) don’t want to have to think about hosting: in the same way they expect their mobile phone service to just work, and email to just work, they need Wordpress to just work.

Whatever issues I have with WP Engine they offer a very straightforward “forget about it” service for running Wordpress which ultimately means more people are likely to use it.
It’s not a premium plugin.
Search was the only thing I need Google. Great, now the dependency removed itself.

Hi fellow hackers! In the spirit of the independent creator, I would like to share with you something I have been working on - a personal framework for life. It's not complete and it's not rigorous, but it has been immensely helpful to me to work on it and maybe it will be interesting for you to read. I hope to continue working on it and turn it into more actionable elements such as app, but for now I'm just looking for feedback on it, either specifics or as a whole. Thanks for looking.

And to ensure that solar system owners are paying full retail prices for grid electricity, when commercial operators are making insufficient money.
What do you mean by “trademark issues”? Is this about the WP in the WPEngine’s name? If yes, what about other companies in a similar position?
Absolutely. I moved a big revenue generating content site away from Wordpress about 18 months ago. With this absurd debacle going on, I’m so glad I made that decision.
Show HN: A dataset of all HN submission texts (2006-2024) in Markdown
We're at nixiesearch.ai building a yet another search over HN, but we found no public datasets of the actual submission texts available - so we scraped one!

TLDR: 2.1M texts, around 55% of all stories still available online.
Was there really not even a pdf and/or matrix code option ?
I always smile a bit when i read this kind of posts because authors usually don’t realise the kind of “brainwashing” they went through: they basically adapted themselves to the os rather than adapting the os to themselves.

Any os can be great if you “just” learn to do your computing the way the os dictate.

And, am i really supposed to be impressed by the fact that you can “just press enter enter enter” to install openbsd? Like, for real?
He didn't make shit, wordpress is a fork of b2/cafelog.
Most UPS that you’d plug into a socket aren’t online/double conversion though, they’re line-interactive.
I would be disappointed as well!

I got it a year ago, still feels like new. However, I got the very thin Japanese futon model, and my partner and I are both under 145lb/65kg so that probably goes a long way. I could definitely see a heavier load compressing the coils permanently.

I did see this on their FAQ page:

"Up to what individual body weight is ideal for an airweave? We have tested our mattresses for individuals up to 220lbs. At this weight or lower, you should expect to use your mattress for 10-15 years. For any individuals above 220lbs you may see body indents and wear sooner"

I also see that the warranty is good for only 3 years for the futon model, which leads me to believe I'll be shopping for a new one in 2 years. That's... Not a long time for the fairly steep price of $2600.

When this wears out, I'll probably go back to a thin cotton futon, that's my second favorite. I only got the Airweave because my last cotton futon got moldy because it's so humid here it never gets to dry out.
Colourblind employees would then become a spearphishing target.
Its all very well to blow smoke up OpenBSD's backside today, but what the author carefully skirts around is that it hasn't been this way for that long.

syspatch did not appear until 6.1. Before that system updates were admin hell.

sysupgrade did not appear until 6.6. Before that, the "look at me and my hit-enter 20 minute upgrade" was very much not the case.

Network performance was generally rubbish unti the developers started making an effort sometime in the late 6.x releases.

Various userland bits were also rubbish until the developers started making an effort in the 7.x releases. For example, but not limited to, OpenBGPD (the OpenBSD native version, not the ported version which only has limited applications), which is something you wouldn't really want to use seriously in its earlier implementations for 101 reasons.

It is also still not perfect. For example there are various fibre NICs that FreeBSD supports out of the box but OpenBSD does not. And you still can't get SFP transciever data except in a VERY narrow combination of NIC + SFP cases.

I will grant you 7.5/7.6 have been great releases. I'm just saying, lets not pretend OpenBSD has always been like this, because it has not.

Finally, the author says of OS X "Terminals that crash when I create a new tab". As a long-term OS X user, I have never, ever seen this.
It has premium features, it may be a grey area, but that makes it a premium plugin IMO.

Sometimes Software is Done, or Why Hugo Why (2024)

https://commaok.xyz/post/on_hugo/

> When I first used Hugo I loved it. It was fast. It was simple. It just worked, as much as any software does, and it solved a real problem.

> It was done.

> But people kept working on it.

> I’m sure that it has been improved in countless ways. But along the way it has gotten bigger and more complicated, and has broken backwards compatibility repeatedly.
When a human does it, it's understanding, when an AI does it, it's prediction, I thinks it's very clear /s
I see it differently: for example the fact that the US government spends a lot of money on military can in my opinion clearly be called a subsidy for the military-industrial complex.
> the grep 31m|32m thing is searching for red/green text in the diff

This is a cool trick!
That's bs. You have no understanding of understanding.

Hooke's law was pure curve-fitting. Hooke definitely did not understand the "why". And yet we don't consider that bad physics.

Newton's laws can be derived from curve fitting. How is that different from "understanding"?
A game like GTA has way too much functionality and complex branching for this to work I think (beyond eg doing aimless drives around the city — which would be very cool though)
It's not really whether it makes scientific sense or not, it's just that it's so very highly improbable (really, really improbable) that other explanations make more sense: the video's a fake, it's mass hysteria, or even that we're living in a simulation.
Actually, it makes quite a bit of sense to plan ahead to make sure that your infrastructure can efficiently transport the weapon systems you already have, or you are planning to have.

What's the use of tanks if you can't get them to the battlefield? [1]

Although some infrastructure was already built taking logistics into account [2], concrete structures have a life expectancy of about 50 years, and many bridges are past that age and need urgent replacement. And that costs a lot of money.

A small reminder on the importance of bridges: [3]

It sounds a bit similar to when Drupal faded to obscurity during the Larry Garfield sage. Of course there is a long run up that finally explodes with a high profile issue, but the writing could be on the wall for WordPress.
Wordpress did not fork the plugin. They just took ownership of the plugin.

Wordpress removed all premium features after the hijacking of the plugin.

The cost of the road deaths is also significant and I think it's safe to say it dropped as people switched to using rail.

Sorry, but once you have to resort to emulation or patching binaries, I can hardly think it anymore as trivial. Or that they care about backwards compatibility.

You are lucky someone has figured out whatever needs to be patched here. You won't be next time.
Not detracting from the point you're making, but the kernel side for Nvidia drivers for Linux is published on GitHub, by Nvidia. The userspace side is still delivered as pre-compiled binaries, tough.

Automattic was an early investor in WPE in 2011, but then they made a mistake and sold their shares.

In addition, the GPL allows you to do what you mentioned. You can take any GPL-licensed code and use it for commercial purposes without having to contribute back. The license is designed to protect you in this way, and it aligns with the spirit of GPL. Expecting something in return for open-sourcing code is not in line with the spirit of GPL and open-source software. If you're not comfortable with other people making money from your code, it's best not to open-source it.
Is this true? Do you have a source? I thought that the pros tended to make use of polar’s technology and that their heart rate monitoring (via strap) was considered the most accurate / baseline. (My sources are from what I remember dcrainmaker saying who I consider a well researched reviewer)
Australia currently has "barely any" EVs in regular use.

The future here will see more solar panels over the already high numbers, more battery parks and "local" batteries (for 200 homes or so) and more vehicles on charge (soaking up the current excess).

The key feature, which is already partially in play, is a smart grid that can adapt to distributed demand and supply.
indeed; but still incredible that it retained so many characteristics over time and at such great distance from origin! I had been very fascinated with this.
Ah, well don’t be too rough on yourself. My parents are boomers, they are allright, I’m sure you are too.

I won’t say your generation didn’t make some mistakes politically. But in any group it is the kind and introspective that feel guilt about the group’s negative actions, while the selfish just go on happily being selfish. You don’t have to make up for the selfish folks who happen to have been born around the same time as you, but if you want to, live a long happy kind life.

I think their current PR seems to be Matt Mullenweg himself.

And the more I hear him speak - having never really concerned myself with anything he said - the more loopy and disconnected from reality he seems. Post-economic!

Sometimes it’s great to have a slightly crazy visionary with utopian ideals who is prepared to say whatever they think will effect change. But also: Elon.

That's an interesting idea you had, it makes me think of a mix between a jupyter notebook and a makefile, sort of, based on md files. I like the concept, but I need to test it to see if it fits my needs. Just a question about python and zsh, do they need to be pre-installed in your OS and accessible from PATH, that's it ?
