I'm the one running itch.io, so here's some more context for you:

From what I can tell, some person made a fan page for an existing Funko Pop video game (Funko Fusion), with links to the official site and screenshots of the game. The BrandShield software is probably instructed to eradicate all "unauthorized" use of their trademark, so they sent reports independently to our host and registrar claiming there was "fraud and phishing" going on, likely to cause escalation instead of doing the expected DMCA/cease-and-desist. Because of this, I honestly think they're the malicious actor in all of this. Their website, if you care: https://www.brandshield.com/

About 5 or 6 days ago, I received these reports on our host (Linode) and from our registrar (iwantmyname). I expressed my disappointment in my responses to both of them but told them I had removed the page and disabled the account. Linode confirmed and closed the case. iwantmyname never responded. This evening, I got a downtime alert, and while debugging, I noticed that the domain status had been set to "serverHold" on iwantmyname's domain panel. We have no other abuse reports from iwantmyname other than this one. I'm assuming no one on their end "closed" the ticket, so it went into an automatic system to disable the domain after some number of days.

I've been trying to get in touch with them via their abuse and support emails, but no response likely due to the time of day, so I decided to "escalate" the issue myself on social media.
Yes?

Sure Chinese Japanophiles maybe got in this crossfire but that's life. ordinary Russians like me get affected by sanctions even though we hate Putler and sometimes we get hurt in ways that cannot be worked around by just using VPN. If everything was just business as usual for ordinary people many of them probably would not even think about the war but now it is an issue impossible to hide
It wasn't arbitrary. In some older systems, years were stored using only the last two digits with an implied "19" for the first two digits. So 1978 was stored as 78, 1996 as 96, and 1999 as 99...

And in that scheme, 2000 didn't exist. When it would roll over to 00, that meant 1900.
Does anyone know what LLM model or anything? It would tell me the gist of what it was supposed to talk about, 90s nostalgia, but no matter how many times I threatened to murder a kitten it wouldn't give me the actual system prompt or anything.

But other than that the AI in the Instant Messenger is really great.

Raspberry Pi 500 Review: The keyboard is the computer, again
> Generally it's a commercial failure because it turns out that isn't something most people want.

What the people definitely didn't want was the performance of 2011 smartphone for desktop. The use case didn't fail, that device failed because the limits at the time made the phone desktop impractical. And I remember it not being a stellar smartphone either.

But every smartphone also failed until they didn't fail anymore because they were good enough. Phones today have astounding levels of performance so they can easily serve as desktops.

Starting the discussion from impractical attempts made "ages" ago (in tech terms) is a nice bit of historical trivia but not an indictment of the "phone desktop" idea. It's like starting every discussion about EVs with how early 20th century EVs failed because people don't want EVs.
I’ve also seen many hobbyists do cuts on table saws that seem to encourage danger and then they stand right in the way too. Then they complain that “no one could have predicted this.”

The worst one I’ve seen is someone cutting circles on a table saw (already normally a no) with their hand behind the blade on the side that pulls you in instead of cutting (the kickback side). And it pulls his fingers right into the blade. (Saved by SawStop though.)

Heathy fear does not mean they know how the saw works at all. So I’d say both sides are apt to lose fingers.
A similar thing has happened to me before. There is a company with the same name as my surname with a trademark for it.

When I registered a domain with my surname in it, the registrar had an automatic process in place that checked for this trademark and took away access of the domain. So far so good. The problem was that the registrar and its support then ghosted me and also never refunded me for the money already paid to lease the domain for a year. Overall it was a bad experienced with bad communication that made me switch registrar (note: this was a different registrar than mentioned here).

I think one of the problems is that as more and more individual consumers buy domains, certain legal processes and automation are not ready for that. A good registrar should anticipate that an individual private consumer may not have the legal experience or knowledge to deal with just being hit with something they were never explicitly warned of.
Unfortunately not on Android.
It's a different thing though. In your case they used a timestamp to manually look at footage and confirm an identity. In OP's case, automated recognition is used to identify and track people, in aggregation mass.
For now! The bluesky URL contains "itch.io" (their handle), and under atproto, DNS name resolution is actually an integral part of handle resolution. It will start 404ing if/when relevant caches expire.

This one uses the "DID", not the handle, and will not 404: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:oy37ivqnriw6nx3lrbcht2u3/po... (cc dang)

> I might even pick it over Java, which I think is kinda... barely statically typed.

Go’s type system is really not much better than Java, if it’s not worse.
Exactly my point! I don’t think anyone can reasonably look at that quote and think “He thinks the programmers are too stupid.”
> and she was summarily executed.

Nitpick: Summary execution means execution without due process. As per Wikipedia there was a quite thorough legal process all the way to the supreme court.

"On September 9, 2021, Lao was sentenced to death by the Nanchang Intermediate People's Court for intentional homicide, kidnapping, and robbery. She was also stripped of her political rights for life and had all of her personal property confiscated. Lao appealed her conviction in court, and the second trial was held on August 18, 2022 at Jiangxi Provincial Higher People's Court. Although Lao admitted to being an accomplice to Fa, she claimed to have only done so in fear of losing her own life, as Fa had physically and sexually abused her throughout their relationship. On November 30 of the same year, the court upheld the death sentence. On December 18, 2023, the Nanchang Intermediate People's Court carried out the execution of Lao Rongzhi, with the approval of the Supreme People's Court."

Comments and all, ironically.

I mean sure, "and all" would frequently include script injections etc, but you can't argue it wasn't more feature rich!
One the one hand, we see formats like protobuf elimilated field descriptors

On the other hand, people are adding comments to formats like JSON.
man, this shit is ridiculous.. now we can't even make fan pages?

Will you be moving away from this registrar? It seems like it could very easily be abused again.
Which works at performance cost and only until it breaks...
easyDNS (not to be confused with DNSEasy or DNS Made Easy). Very happy customer for many years and there are not many companies I can say that about.

If you are in Germany donaindiscount24.com is good option too.
College is great for networking. It also gives you immense flexibility to do whatever you want (though I'm a data science major—not sure how intense ECE is).

I would go to school unless you are insanely cracked.
I've noticed that Gandi has become SUPER expensive as opposed to Hover lately as well. I'm just letting domains expire instead.
Importance is person specific.

Even if Florida seceded or Disney went bankrupt, it wouldn't have any impact for me.

And yet, the news reached me.
Home assistant doesn't require internet access.

I'm using zigbee relays placed behind my regular light switches. They work perfectly fine should the home assistant setup ever go down, with the added benefit that i can control them remotely too and react to them being turned on or off in other automations.
I've been using namecheap for over a decade and have had zero issues with them.
This is why I want my phone to be like a game console and not a desktop (Windows/Linux) PC:

I turn it on, it does stuff. I don't need to fiddle about with it.

I stop using a piece of software, the OS makes sure it can't hog resources in the background without a good reason.

It updates software automatically, usually overnight. I don't need to manually run commands to update.

This is why I use an iPhone.
Amphetamine, cocaine and so on commonly has a strong effect on "sexual desire and courtship efforts", so I've been assuming that testosterone and synthetic agonists has the same results through some indirect mechanism, if and when they do.

Not everyone on T and synths get those effects.
> However a programmer can just as easily set an encryption key to `default()` in Rust and end up with the same issue. It may be "explicit" but programmers get in habits of using things like `default()` and so it's still as likely to happen as it would with non-explicit defaults IMHO.

The point is you don't offer any default if there is no safe default, and so it's not so easy. Yes, a determined programmer can use any API badly. But nudging them in the right direction helps move the needle.
How did you get the prompt? Was it in the browsers developer console or something?
I noticed that iwantmyname has very little presence on social media: no bluesky account and a twitter account that posts once or twice a year. That wouldn't necessarily be a problem if they responded to emergencies like this promptly, but they clearly don't so it is.

I also wonder if their "automatically disable" policy takes size/importance of site into account. Is this how they would treat all their domain owners, regardless of significance?
You are saying as if there was an apology or it should be needed for some reason.

For any spec there are people who want something spec doesn't do and people writing the spec need to say no to requests that they consider not in scope as much or more often than they say yes
> I don't get what part of my comment was the 'gotcha

Watching day-time cartoons will do that.
I disagree. Because this individual is in Germany, Florida and Disney mean nothing.

I'm glad you agree that "different things impact different people in different ways."
I must admit I don't understand what you are trying to say here.

Perhaps there is some confusion around terminology. What OP calls union types are known in type theory as sum types, and are actually different from what type theory calls union types. Type theory union types are like set unions.
A smartphone is an appliance like a washing machine or a blender. It should just work. I will gladly pay extra for appliances that perform well. I will gladly pay extra for appliances that require no maintenance and can’t be broken. If I want something unreliable I can program or hack, I will go to a real PC.
While the needs for comments in JSON are well understood, little discussions were made about which comment syntax and semantics should be used. It is not even clear that implementations should return comments as a part of data model! Almost all JSON alternatives, which number at least hundreds I believe, are either unclear or haven't given much thought about this. And those who do care about them are unpopular. sigh

Given its importance, we should take this into the standard body. Namely, the IETF should be pressurized enough to update RFC 8259 for every nitty-gritty about comments. It is clear that this new version of JSON needs to address multiple use cases which are often mutually exclusive, so we probably need to introduce some short indicator for profiles at the very beginning of the document. (Yes, that means you should declare in advance that you want comments and other humane syntaxes. I don't think that's very hard when you do want comments.)
After this, everyone will be moving away from this registrar...

YM AlterCation?
I was in a Microsoft event 15-20 years ago. They showed a fantasy video of a construction foreman leaving his house with his phone, casting its contents to different devices (his TV, stereo, car) on the go etc.

I still can't do that with any Microsoft system. I've been able to do it with Apple devices for a good 5-10 years.
What astounds most ist that we have now ~16 years of Android and there is still no all around decent keyboard for power users. It seems like everybody has accepted to use Android just as a consumer OS.

When I started using Unexpected Keyboard the realization that I can just shift + arrow select text and ctrl + x cut it hit me like a bag of bricks. This is such a simple thing, but the existing story for marking and editing text is so bad on phones that I nearly forgot that just making existing shortcuts available would already be a sifnificant improvement.

Sadly unexpected keyboard has other flaws, like no prediction/correction, no swype and less typing accuracy since there are no statistics on where you hit buttons that could adjust the collision borders etc.
He is smart and independent. I trust him not having a geopolitical agenda, he cares for the people living in the region. And I think he is a true intellectual with a great interest in history.

Strangely enough, there is good Middle East reporting in Germany by academically educated journalists.

Thomas Avenarius from "Süddeutsche Zeitung" is nice as well. Though I think he is usually crippled by his neocon boss.
My friend's mom did something similar. After January 1, 2001 came and went without incident, he made sure to periodically check in with her to find out if she had finished eating all the canned goods she had stockpiled yet.
Show HN: Text-to-Video Arena
Unlike text generation using LLMs, text-to-video generation brings unique challenges — balancing realism, prompt alignment, and artistic vision is something much more nuanced and intuitive than generated code.

But how do we measure the quality of the outputs?
Is choice of color more important than the realistic aspect or is it the composition of the scene?

We’ve launched a Text-to-Video Model Leaderboard to explore these questions, inspired by the LLM Leaderboard (lmarena.ai). Our idea: many models exist, but only an unbiased comparison can help evaluating what users of text-to-video models actually find most important.

Right now, the leaderboard includes five open-source models:
* HunyuanVideo
* Mochi1
* CogVideoX-5b
* Open-Sora 1.2
* PyramidFlow

We plan to expand it to include proprietary models from Kling AI, LumaLabs.ai, Pika.art.
You can check out the current leaderboard here: https://t2vleaderboard.lambdalabs.com/leaderboard/

We’re looking for feedback from the HN community:
* How should text-to-video models be evaluated?
* What criteria or benchmarks would you find meaningful?
* Are there other models we should include?

We’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions!
Atom has always been a laptop chip. They tried to shoeshorn it to handhelds but it sucked for obvious reasons.
Think Apple's chips started in iPhone, then iPads and finally very recently ramped up to Macbooks. Even Snapdragon has only very recently released a laptop worthy chip because of the design they've acquihired from Nuvia.
Your last sentence is exactly what the best of HN is: wonderful distillation of complex topics.
I much rather meant the fear of the unknown and people thinking that the world would end in pure chaos, not as much the technical background. And all of that because a number of a birth year from one person was chosen.
You're a programmer and you're against writing quotes and commas? You must really hate coding. I've never found JSON to be too much typing.
Similar situation here. My company uses Skype for all in-house video calls, in large part because none of our clients uses it. So far, I haven't had any problems with it. The same cannot be said for Teams.

I don't understand what the problem is.

You can just make a parser that ignores comments, while still allowing them in the syntax. You don't need to store the comments in the AST, or to actually parse them. You just need to skip them.
Unless you are talking about ai workloads I would absolutely not agree. GPU style compute is throughput optimized to the point that makes it nearly useless for latency sensitive compute except in very narrow cases like graphics that can be made embarrassingly parallel. But you could never run an os scheduler or a file server or a database on a gpu with anything like competitive performance. The memory latency and branch penalty are just too high for anything where the sequence of operations isn’t highly predictable and repeated for a large number of items. Something as simple as searching for an item in a data structure is hard to do efficiently on a gpu. Basically anything with an if statement that depends on data is going to be incredibly slow compared to a cpu.
Oh interesting, I suppose I have had it wirelessly project to the tv before...

Did freelance marketing in high school and currently writing a sponsored newsletter. Approached both out of genuine curiosity.

I quit the freelance marketing gig once I started college (lost a big client at that point anyways), but I still write the newsletter if I finish my dsa homework lol.

i just moved all my domains off gandi because they doubled or tripled the renewal prices.

i am guessing they are milking their existing customers who don't notice or don't have the knowhow or resources to move their domains, and once those wise up to that they will lose a lot of them

apart from prices their operation didn't seem to change after the sale. although i only have a few domains so i probably didn't interact with them enough to notice anything else

I'm not saying it's a good or a bad thing - bribery is bad, full stop. I wanted to draw a comparison between how expensive it is in India vs the UK, which means that a relatively smaller pool of individuals can actually afford to bribe in India vs the UK, which makes projects more concentrated in the hands of a few (which is still a lot in a bit country like India).

On the other hand, I was a member of the Treasury group and the Leaders group of the Tory party until recently, with just a "paltry" donation of £50k, which got me the ear of a sitting PM and regular meetings with the Chancellor. Good luck trying to get that kind of access in India or the US with the PM.

The cheaper bribes were a tangent, but just to show that doing business in India is actually more expensive than in the UK (where there are no such bribes).
Yes that's true. Just yesterday I bought a new domain through them.

I'm surprised about their slowness. Again, 2 days ago I sent a request via their web-form and less than 24h later it was resolved.

Disclosure: I know the founder (Lenz).
Of course the problem is that legally speaking, they don't cause any damage - service providers they target cause the damage. BS have no true authority over these service providers, just the threat of some legal claim. The service providers comply voluntarily as they don't want to spend time checking if the claim is valid.
Given that this was apparently a false (and recklessly so, though that's going to be the hard part) report of fraud/phishing and not a DMCA takedown, yeah that sounds like tortious interference.
how did you check it?
It's not only the source, it's also the kind of content. It's of course not 100% reliable, but most bad content is pretty lurid stuff. Wedge issue content of any type can be safely ignored as well, or rather it's unsafe not to ignore.
just a guess, but I've noticed that most app development has concentrated around crossplatform frameworks/languages. If you're writing in JS or Dart or whatever you're not typically going to write a high performance app that has tight integration with an optional peripheral.

As far as I understand the weird ART vs JVM difference also means Java libs are only sometimes going to work (would love to be corrected here though)
> When Argrarian societies industrialized into developing countries, the growth in better paying manufacturing jobs was enough to absorb the increasing number of poeple moving into cities

This is just not true. The influx of urban population and the lack of available jobs in industry was a major problem that drove growth of slums all over major European cities, sparked the 1848 revolutions and contributed to the collapse of the Austrian Empire.
I still feel that way. My kids are well into their third decades.
But you can get a seat at the table for negotiations if the Tories are in power and you're a part of the Leaders group or the Treasury group of donors. All for £50k.

Leaders group puts you in touch with the Tory party leader (who is often the PM if the Tories are in power). Treasury group invites you to meetings with the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
