Yeah although this is more a consequence of how SF decided to handle it. Rather than decriminalising they're just enabling users.

Look towards other countries with similar policies (Portugal, Netherlands, etc.) in their cases they saw a decrease in drug usage and fatalities. The difference is they decided to not encourage their behaviour by allowing open air drug markets to flourish, with kiosks just down the street handing out the necessary paraphernalia.
I feel the same way - summarizing unnecessarily long email chains or slack threads at work? Works for me. Summarizing messages from my friends and loved ones? Feels dehumanizing.

Both were fake. One was a con by the DEA and the other one a con by a single guy posing as executioner, victim and a slew of other colorful characters.

In the US, to my understanding:

1. The Copyright Office requires human authorship for a work to be protected by copyright. So in theory, someone else could copy the parts of your project that were LLM-generated without obeying your license's requirements (such as to give credit). Parts that you added and the work as a whole would still be protected

2. Regarding potential infringement of the training data: from progress in ongoing cases so far, copyright's requirement for substantial similarity has been upheld[0] for model output. So if your code doesn't resemble some protected work (and I think common coding LLM services have some attempts at preventing this) you should be in the clear there

So I don't see anything against using whatever open-source license you normally would.

[0]: E.G: in Stable Diffusion case, Judge William H. Orrick agreed with the defendants that "plaintiffs cannot plausibly allege the Output Images are substantially similar or re-present protected aspects of copyrighted Training Images, especially in light of plaintiffs' admission that Output Images are unlikely to look like the Training Images"

There's stuff horses can do better than even the best of our current technology. Where that stuff matters, horses are still employed.

Where cars displaced horses, it's because they're strictly better in a larger sense. On the city streets, maybe a car is louder than a horse, but it's also cheaper to make, easier to feed, and doesn't shit all over the place (which was a real problem with scaling up horse use in the 19th century!). Sure, cars shit into the air, but it's a more manageable problem (even if mostly by ignoring it - gaseous emissions can be ignored, literal horse shit on the streets can't).

And then, car as a platform expands to cover use cases horses never could. They can be made faster, safer, bigger, adapted to all kinds of terrain. The heart of the car - its engine - can be routed to power tool attachments, giving you everything from garbage trucks to earth movers, cranes, diggers, to tanks; it can be also taken outside and used as a generator to power equipment or buildings. That same engine can be put in a different frame to give you flying machines, or scaled up to give you ships that can carry people, cars, tanks, planes or containers by the thousands, across oceans. Or scaled up even more to create power plants supplying electricity to millions of people.

And then, building all that up was intertwined with larger developments in physics, material engineering, and chemistry - the latter of which effectively transformed how our daily lives look like in the span of 50 years. Look at everything around you. All the colors. All the containers. All the stuff you use to keep your house, clothes, and yourself clean. All that is a product of chemical industry, and was invented pretty much within the last 100 years, with no direct equivalent exiting ever before.

This is what it means for evolution accelerating when it moved from genes to information. So sure, horses are still better than stuff we make. The best measure of that advantage is the size of horse population, and how it changed over the years.
IF money was equally distributed then maybe. But that has never happened.
Same with drinking water, food and shelter.
Ultimately that's just an accounting trick that makes it appear like the government takes less than it actually does.

What we really care about is how much the government takes from us ("total cost to employer" - "net payment to employee") and what it provides in return.

On the same principle, noting that someone who punched someone got one day in jail is not a good justification for why someone shouldn't get two days in jail for smoking weed.
I don't think those types of hypotheticals are taken very seriously in court rooms. One, they are effectively unfalsifiable, because it's a about harm that could have happened but didn't. Two, they can be applied universally. Any action might have prevented a catastrophe, after all. Courts persecute based on laws broken and harm done.

Ironically our justice system sometimes does persecute based on hypotheticals. For example persecution for driving recklessly, which is inconsistent with the principle above.
> rarely do the people involved with supplying drugs stay that way

I'm really intrigued how people can say these things like they're facts. That's really happening a lot more nowadays. It's an opinion you have.

Or am I wrong, and do you have a source or personal account of some kid in a sleepy village in the south of france?
Or could it be that the people who DO stay that way don't reach the media, because they DO stay that way?
Yeah, I think this factoid has changed significantly in the decades since I learned it during a visit to Pinjarra. ;)

Still, bauxite is pretty weird business.
Caching attachments at a single nice, big, juicy honeypot like CloudFlare is one of the reasons Signal's privacy guarantees don't feel totally solid to me. I get that it's pragmatic, but feel there must be a better way.

Does the caching occur even if both users are online when the attachment is sent?
On the contrary, I would say the end user's device has never been more powerful and it will continue to get better.

In real world we are supposed to use that resource(client side compute/storage) to balance the server side and client side processing, not just for performance but for optimal user experience.

I think that we have to agree that anyone doing this today will definitely go to jail, and is my personal opinion that there must be a punishment. Now, the discussion could be if a life sentence is a fair sentence or not. I personally feel that a life sentence is a disproportionate punishment, moreover if the subject shows a different attitude after being in jail for more than a decade. Ten years time to medidate about what you did is plenty of time to change someone's mind, obviously if you are a person willing to do things differently.
Sadly, it is not that unexpected given some of his recent interviews[1]. Any other day, I would agree it is a surprise.

I think 'job security' is overrated. If your current employer keeps you and you are good at what you do, why wouldn't another employer hire you.

My (49yo)take is, if you don't like your job, leave. Life's too short to be miserable in your job.

Or maybe I'm just so lucky of living in Europe?
Yeah, I wondered about seacraft reactors myself. I think there are many safety allowances for DOD vs. DOE. The DOD reactors are not publicly accessible (you hope anyway), and the data centers will be in and near the public. There are also major security measures that have to be taken for reactor sites. You have armed personnel before you even get to the reactors, and then the entrances are sometimes close to one mile away from the reactor. Once there, the number of guards and bang-bags goes up. The modern sites kind of look like they have small henges around them (back to the neolithic!) :)

The Ingenious Design of the Aluminum Beverage Can [video] (2015)
I don't remember the contents of that paper, but I can give you some context based on my knowledge of "traditional" theoretical computer science.

In theoretical CS you have state machines, pushdown automatons and turing machines. What may surprise you is that the difference between those three does not lie in the way the algorithm for them is represented. They all use state transition diagrams!

Pushdown automatons are more powerful than state machines, because they have a stack onto which they can push new data, peek at the top of the stack or pop data off the stack.

Now here is the kicker! How do you get a turing machine? You take a pushdown automaton and remove the restriction that you can only push, peek or pop at the head! You can now move the head pointing at the stack, your stack has turned into a tape!

The key difference lies in the datastructure that the transition diagram is manipulating, not the algorithm itself!

The attention mechanism of the transformer architecture is analogous to a tape that can only be written to once per blank and in theory that alone is enough to emulate a full Turing machine with read, write, rewrite and delete semantics.

OK, that's fair. So I agree that:

Which framework-specific libraries do you even need? It’s UI, like forms and buttons and inputs and tables. I can’t imagine e.g. choosing between GTKmm and Qt over “libraries that I need”.

deployment, hosting, monitoring etc

Isn’t this backend-related? Generally framework agnostic?

Deployment and hosting is just publishing a Vite/etc bundle, right? What is framework-specific frontend monitoring?

There was a great UX principle around alternative mechanisms or backups. You can't have two rolls of toilet paper easily accessible in a public bathroom because people will naturally use them up at a similar rate.

You need to make ONE OF THEM more inconvenient to use, so that overall your bathroom experience remains useful and convenient. (You'll see this often with a sliding door between two installed rolls of paper, usually with a visible window showing the amount remaining)

Introducing "artificial" inconvenience can be a very powerful usability improvement.

Oracle could reasonably be hit with some sort of stick every time they filed a frivolous lawsuit until the AI got tuned appropriately. Then it'd be a situation where Oracle were continuously suing people who don't follow the law, following a reasonably neutral and well calibrated standard that is probably going to end up as similar to an intelligent and well practised barrister. That would be acceptable. If people aren't meant to be following the law that is a problem for the legislators.
Justice reform is generally positive for the country and not just individual cultural groups. I just don't expect those reforms to apply to drug offenders when so many of his supporters seems like they are seeking retribution for the loss of loved ones that killed themselves with drugs to the extent that they celebrate calls to bomb neighboring countries.

I don't think we're going to see clear messaging on this from Trump.
> People explain this by saying losing a job affects that person whereas inflation affects everybody, but personally I put it down to the right demagoguing inflation as the sign of an incompetent government (it turns out it was transitory and the result of supply shocks--maybe not a good reason to throw millions of people out of work).

The problem is, prices didn't fall (mostly due to corporate greed - corporate profits exploded in comparison with inflation [1]), and many people are worse off than they were prior to the pandemic, even after some of them got wage increases that in many cases didn't even come close to matching inflation.

The Biden administration could have done more to combat this but didn't, and Trump campaigned on that failure. The real issue is that the US desperately lacks any viable third party option which means, combined with the radicalization of the Republicans over the last decades, that there is no way of holding the Democrats accountable without electing ever more utter crazies.

You've misunderstood the point, it's cost not coding ability.

Modern PCs, PS5 and Series X have greater resources available and newer hardware that allows for more advanced shaders, among other things, which are simply not performant or even possible on the Switch.

If you want to support these features AND support Switch or low-powered devices as well, you are making the business decision to build and maintain two codepaths and to duplicate, rework and maintain a second set of assets.

The cost often doesn't work out, so the choice is either support Switch and don't have a game that looks as good as contemporaries (a reasonable choice for indies, but graphics do sell games), or to ignore the Switch (maybe hire a studio to back-port it later if it does well enough).

Games companies and Nintendo would love for more big titles to be on Switch.

it is not their numbers :)

you won't count

in my experience it's good to poke at numbers that don't match your intuition. that's how you get to reality.

except what you are doing is not looking at numbers but drawing from either your personal experiences or "oh, I've heard no one is on facebook these days"

Distella is a disassembler specifically for the Atari 2600. Since its creation, it has been modified to disassemble Atari 7800 code as well. It creates source code that is usually recompilable without any human intervention. It examines the code and performs some basic tracing routines which allow it to accurately distinguish data from code.

Deleting apps doesn't work for me because there are topics I actually want to follow on places like X (e.g. ML / AI news). As soon as I reinstall, it will easily suck you in again with some distracting emotionalised / partisan current event.

There is an app called ScreenZen that was immediately effective in breaking my habit. It made me use social media much more consciously.

My go-to "social media" page has been GoodReads for a while, and I don't see a problem with it – not only because it is rewarding reading books, but because it doesn't have dark distraction patterns and is much more like the mid 2000s internet. Half my family is doing the reading challenges now.

But they did not have to compete with social media. There are more third spaces (as is often discussed on HN) and local ways to get started.

That’s pure historical revision. The sentencing difference was created in 1986 based on the belief that it was more addictive. It wasn’t until a decade later that research showed the causation had been reversed (more addicted people were more likely to use crack). If you look at the timing, there was a huge increase in drug crime that occurred as a result of the crack epidemic: https://www.nber.org/digest/oct18/lingering-lethal-toll-amer....

The recent change in policy simply reflects the prevailing trend of reducing disparities in sentencing for criminals while increasing disparities in crime victimization by failing to enforce the law.
Ask the swing voters. The republicans seized the narrative.

Trying to justify stealing the election, then trying to rewrite history saying the other side broke stuff when they prostested is the laziest sort of whataboutism I've seen on this site.

Trump and his minons tried to undo the results of an election. An election he lost. Lost even while abusing his power as president (see his calls in Ukraine and Georgia as evidence).

Nobody on the left supports looters or rapists. If there is evidence someone committed a crime, prosecute them. Trump is the only person I know that supports rapists (see Epstien and Gaetz). He says if you are loyal to him, you don't have to face the consequences of your actions. That to me is what is most scary.
Yes. Simply sleeping on the arm where you wear your watch will make it record crazy values.

The sleep quality and breathing measurements are based on movement - which doesn’t make sense when you have another person or pet with you in the bed that also tends to move at night.

That’s why we still have sleeping labs. However, the watch’s data can be an indicator that something is wrong and get people to at least mention it to their doc.

Oh, so this is where the idea of signing Python packages with GitHub Actions comes from...

From the bottom of my heart, I wish only the worst things for you in your programming career. Yes, I know that it's still possible to publish packages w/o GitHub, but the technical aspect alone will not convince people in organizations which set policies for how to do this stuff. So, the technical possibility alone doesn't matter. Now a bunch of organizations which advertise themselves as free / OSS have to eat MS proprietary garbage and be grateful... thanks to heroes like you.
In one of the projects I worked on years before, the pages are served by Django 2, and all the fancy interactivity is handled by AngularJS (v1) (think datepickers, galleries, multi form, etc).

We would use the same controller name, and just load different JS for different pages.

It was an odd stack, but it served us pretty well.
