I have never been homeless, but ran a street paper for a long time and have a lot of anti-poverty experience. As a consequence, I know some people who have gotten off the homelessness hamster wheel and many who have not.

Successful people usually take it slow. Your goals are (in order):

1.) Any housing.

2.) ???

3.) Average housing for the developed world.

If we take your situation and do a SWOT analysis, your biggest weaknesses are a lack of housing and the fact that nobody cares. The fact that nobody cares is also your biggest strength and represents your biggest opportunity. However, all of that is balanced out by the biggest threat - the longer you are homeless the greater the chances that you will be victimized. If you become a victim, the fact that nobody cares will only be a weakness.

As a consequence and since your goal is any housing, you’re going to have to change your career goals. Uber/Lyft are too expensive for you right now. Freelance tech will not be an option because you won’t be an attractive candidate until you secure housing. Your goal right now is any job so that you can secure housing.

Once you have any job, the fact that nobody cares becomes an advantage. Here’s a nasty fact of post-homelessness - it’s really hard to rent anything without an existing address. But, if you have an easily verifiable job and are willing to accept questionable housing, you can secure some housing. It might not be great because the landlords don’t care. But the system is designed to err on the side of the housed, so they’re stepping stones.

Once you have housing, you have three readily available options - a fixed address, easy cleanliness and a place to set up your desktop. You can start dreaming then. The size of the dream/leap though depends on income so for the first few years, you may find that your career/housing goals scale with where you are financially at the moment.

Once you secure housing, you’ll get to deal with all sorts of magical issues. Anecdotally, you’ll have a bit of trouble adapting to becoming housed after being unhoused for about six months per year that you were unhoused. The most common one that I hear is that you’ll mourn homelessness while simultaneously feeling like a real fucking loser for mourning homelessness. That sounds fun, said no reasonable person ever.

The most important thing right now is to remember that you have got this. Asking this question here means that you have all the skill you need. You’re going to go through the darkest of humanity for a spell, but I’d bet all I have in you. You’ve got this homie.
surely any "spyware" on the app store is going to include a ton of permissions alerts when it does anything? do you have any egregious examples?
I'm pretty sure it's about who wrote the code.

'git blame' is named after the subversion and CVS blame features that do the same thing. Subversion docs are clear that it's a snarky name and that 'svn praise' and 'svn annotate' are neutral synonyms.

Perhaps someone familiar with CVS can comment on its history there since it seems to be the first source control to add it.

EDIT: and one of the main reasons it's a useful feature is it tells you who to talk to to understand a piece of code, or to coordinate a roll back, or to do any other sort of communication. It probably matters more in a big company where code is changing frequently and you're unlikely to know everyone and what they're working on.

Google provides a client and infrastructure, which they sell to carriers and which has a number of proprietary extensions, including E2EE if the message is Google to Google. If a carrier does not provide Universal Profile, Google provides it. If you send a message using Google Messages, it may default to Google's profile, which is not open and only available to Google Messages users, which is arguably no different to iMessage. Apple provides an RCS client which relies on carrier infrastructure. If there is no compatible profile AIUI, it falls back to MMS or fails.
Sometimes I wonder whether people are willfully ignorant, or just simply trying to pick a fight.

Please read what you wrote yourself, and put yourself in the shoes of someone who might actually be affected. If you cant think of any failure cases ("edge cases", in programming parlance), please read on -

You've essentially reduced every monopolistic tendancies companies exhibit into a positive thing.

- Amazon restricting smaller third-party vendors - according to you, not a problem
- Microsoft ensuring their favored browser (IE) is successful unfairly - according to you, not a problem.

Those are just 2 examples I could think of at the top of my head.
>So just don't tell anyone you used AI?

This guy literally wants his pet AI to be listed as the author. He then wants to sublicense the work back to himself. The AI as the author is the point.
Yes. We use them for container vulnerability scanning - maybe other things as well.

This looks very cool, but I'm too chicken to be first in line to try it. I will, however, be keeping an eye on it!
I'm not quite sure what you're saying, but blame just tells you the last person and commit to change a line.

If you want to know which commit actually caused a problem you would use bisect. That may be what you're saying, but it sounded a bit like you are saying blame is better for tracking the culprit commit.
No, but when Advertising becomes

- Non-moderated minefields of scams, phishing and malwares,

then yes.
Thaler built a tool that spits out images and other stuff. He wants the AI to retain ownership, and for it to grant him a sublicense to him. Its bonkers.
Many US companies operate via subsidiaries and manufacture their products in Asia. But that doesn’t matter if the main business is based in the US. The current US government, its seemingly random tariffs, and their plans to cut their country off the rest of the world make it hard for me to invest my money and energy into products from the US if I’m not sure if in a year from now I still will get support for them as a customer from Europe.

I dont fault Apple. A company exists to make maximum money. Most monopolistic actions look like normal business decision, dare I say, even obvious.

In this case, Apple is 100% exhibiting those tendencies. They are not acting maliciously, but their actions have that effect.
I empathize with both Pebble and Apple here. We all understand the issue from Pebble's point of view. For Apple though, security will be lost by allowing one bad actor. To allow an external watch they need to set up a full org for interoperability. Every app/service on the phone or for that matter anywhere in their ecosystem must be designed and potentially reimplemented to allow for outside interaction. That puts a whole new spin on security and privacy requirements. Yeah regulation is one way to force them to prioritize, but outside of that I cannot see them supporting these.
The AI will do that - for a price.

> That feeling where I imagine would it would feel like to have something enjoyable to look forward to, but I'm not.

Oof, yeah, I know that feeling.

> I have talked to a therapist about it, but didn't get anyway.

My understanding is that variance in therapists is very high. Given that it's one of the most intimate relationships you can have, it really requires finding the right one that fits your specific needs. It may be worth trying to find another.
>>The artists argued they were entitled to copyrights for images they created with AI assistance -- unlike Thaler, who said that his "sentient" system created the image in his case independently.

That's a factually incorrect and legally inconvenient claim. Turns out you can convince the court of whatever you want if that means you lose your case:

"Yes your honour, I was both at my home and at the crime scene at the same time as I am omnipresent"

Doesn't mean alibis are no longer valid in court
You can't OD on tobacco. Your drink can't be spiked-to-death by a cigarette.

The reason I avoid America isn't fucked up border search or lack of freedom of speech for visitors or armed MAGA-heads. It's the disgusting and dangerous streets and crime everywhere.
An employment contract where you agree to assign copyrights to them for any works you create doesn't make uncopyrightable works you create somehow become copyrightable.
All OpenJDK distributions, from all vendors, are also licensed by Oracle (which develops OpenJDK) with the GPLv2+CPE licence. The vendors build Oracle's source code and host branded binaries. If you file an issue, unless it's a problem with the build, they just forward it to Oracle.

Oracle also distributes the JDK with that same licence here: https://jdk.java.net, so there are two Oracle distributions with two different licences, both free but one open-source.
I'd add also a thousand bullets, a thousand tortures, a thousand rapes, and a thousand days in prison for having a different opinion and expressing it.
You don't have to be greedy to not want to be robbed. You do have to be kind of tight with money, aka greedy, to run a competitive business. How often are you paying much more than you absolutely have to for anything? Our greed forces businesses to be run in a greedy way. It's called efficiency.
Isn't this a roundabout kickback scheme?

You're being sarcastic, but isn't this all just... correct?

Yes, I do trust the company that developed Secure Enclave more than I trust random BLE firmware in a $49 Alibaba watch.

More importantly -- my great-uncle can trust the same thing, because Apple has spent decades building that trust. Consumers generally should not trust random hardware. Apple is not random hardware.
This is great. I do this sort of git-blame accounting to track how much code is written by AI versus humans in each release of my app.

My "blame script" has been slowing down as the repo size increases. I was just about to add caching, like you have.

Have you thought about adding the ability to limit the stats based on a set of file patterns? Perhaps like this, where the file follows gitignore conventions?

git-who table -include-file <fname>
git-who table -ignore-file <fname>

I tried to quickly add this functionality but unfortunately I don't know go.
Well at least in my opinion, it seems extremely undemocratic.

University education is a privilege that some people won’t be able to experience (financial constraints, having to care for relatives, …), and I don’t think it’s a unique qualifier for being a good president.

I think if people want to elect someone who didn’t go to university, they should be able to.
AI agents will exist some day, and almost certainly some will be granted personhood status.
Apparently you’ve never heard of multilayered security. The App Store is not the only way Apple is working to secure devices they create.
2 questions:

1. Why now (for Columbia)?

2. Why now (for Turkey)?

The fact that it's in the realm of possibility that the answer is the same for both (political expedience) is a stain on America/Columbia U.
I love the idea behind Framework, but my admittedly old one is nowhere near comparable to a MacBook. It's really unpleasant to use, feels cheap, and performance/battery life are shockingly poor on Kubuntu. It's not a patch on a ThinkPad even, much less a Mac. Have they gotten considerably better since I bought mine (end of 2022)?
Stepping back, would granting a time-limited exclusive license to the output of generative AI "promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts"?

In other words is there important AI art that society would be missing out on because the originator deemed it not worth the effort without some protection against unauthorized copies being made?
It probably appeals to the kind of businesses that see compliance as a list of checkboxes. Just make sure employees have signed the nda and contract and stuff. Doesn't matter if they are a salesperson and the nda says they can't talk about the product.

The issue is that, for the US in particular, the bar is a bit higher on how much human input is required. But generally, some human labor needs to be mixed with the result for it to be yours.

Come on, this is false equivalence. How many die from a glass of wine that has 1000x more alcohol than lethal dose? How many get intoxicated just by touching a beer bottle itself?

I get where you are going with this tho - decriminalized free access to drugs would be far cheaper and safer for most.
Yeah, the whole area within miles of downtown LA had 3 Teslas, and the area around Redmond WA (where the Microsoft HQ is) had exactly one (and it wasn't even a Microsoft employee, apparently it was someone from Pure Storage). Which is obviously laughable, as my floor of the apartment parking garage alone (Seattle, 3 years ago) had 7 (out of maybe 18 total parking spots), and my floor at the work garage (in Redmond) had way more.

All in all, at this point, I am just curious how they obtained/gathered those specific datapoints. It isn't even a case of "some data is missing", it is more like "99%+ of data in the most Tesla-dominant areas in the US is missing".

You want theory or actual steps. There are a lot of books that touch the high value stuff like investment, etc.. But there aren't many books about how to protect your finances.

1. Insurances: health, dental, car, life, renter, home owner, etc..
2. Your basic rights such as getting pay for the hours your work (wage theft is a huge issue).
3. Your credit, how to protect and build it.
4. Scams, how to identify scams and protect yourself.
5. Understand how financing work.
6. Understand how progressive income tax work.

The list is endless. It's crazy we ask people to invest in 401k without knowing what it is.

Still crazy that diplomas can be revoked for non-academic problems. Diplomas should only be able to be revoked if it turns out they were gained using academic misconduct (in my opinion).

If I murder someone during my diploma, get the diploma, and then get caught, will the diploma be taken away? How does that make sense?
Water Requirements for Hydrogen Production: Future Demand and Impacts
Yeah. Also as I understand it, Apple is part of the USB committee and they were actively involved in the development of USB-C. Their experience developing the lightning connector actively led to usb-c being reversible.

If not for the lightning connector, we wouldn't have usb-c as we know it today.

Its also a stretch to claim apple doesn't like usb-c given how hard they've been pushing it on their laptops. In 2016, they started shipping laptops that only had usb-c ports - which worked around the chicken-and-egg problem we would have had otherwise. Dongle-gate was a real thing that annoyed a lot of people. But my desk is covered in usb-c peripherals - and that might not have happened if not for apple's "brave" choice.
SRAM is big in gate count. typically 6 transistors per bit.

The i386, a 32 bit chip already dragging around a couple of generations of legacy architecture came in at 275,000. I would imagine the Hazard3 would be quite a bit more efficient in transistor usage due to architecture.

16K is 16384(bytes) *8(bits per byte) *6(transistors per bit) = 786, 432
Other users want a secure design without the ability to shoot oneself in the foot, such is the reason for a market where you have the alternative choice in Android.
It happens that lots of people who use Linux like to mess around with things, and, from a certain perspective, that's a waste of time. (But can be enjoyable.)

But it's perfectly possible to just use Linux and not muck around. Or, at least, to spend less time unwillingly mucking around than one would elsewhere.

(E.g., EndeavourOS, which is, perhaps unexpectedly/ironically, more or less just Arch with a nice installer and a welcome screen, is one of the easiest OSes to deal with. [Maybe not completely unexpectedly, SteamOS is also a customised Arch.] It's not the exciting distro, or the one I'm most likely to talk a lot about; but see the first point.)
> They want to just click 'yes' on every popup and expect things to keep working

This is an extremely dangerous mindset, even if you never leave Apple's garden. As a reminder, Facebook and TikTok are on the App Store. We cannot encourage this zombie-like behavior and simultaneously have a healthy, free society.

> Because they know that they are not qualified to answer that yes/no popup question

Apple put thought into their permission system and made it easy to understand even among non-HN users, so that regular people can make meaningful choices about what information they want to share with apps and the companies who make them. There might as well be no permission system and no sandboxing at all if users are just going to spam the "yes" button all the time.
Yes I know about HIPAA etc. GDPR cost apparently so far £100bn in business compliance costs (I can easily believe that given the amount of time I have spent discussing GDPR in meetings).

I think that level of cost should have been focussed more at government, rather than private companies.

My take on it...

The models are not copyrightable, they are a derivative work of the collection of works that went into producing them as they are a mathematical transformation of that data.

Related to the other famous example - https://www.copyright.gov/comp3/docs/compendium-12-22-14.pdf

> The Office will not register works produced by nature, animals, or plants. Likewise the Office cannot register a work purportedly created by divine or supernatural beings although the Office may register a work where the applicant or the deposit copy(its) state that the work was inspired by a divine spirit.

> Examples:

> • A photograph taken by a monkey.

It then goes on...

> Similarly, the Office will not register works produced by a machine or mere mechanical
process that operates randomly or automatically without any creative input or
intervention from a human author.

I believe that taking a bunch of photographs (or other works) and producing a model falls into that category of a machine or mechanical process that operates without creative input.

However I do also believe that a model is sufficiently transformative that it, in of itself, is not an infringement... and however again, the output of the model is not copyrightable itself and it may be infringing upon the works used to produce it.

Google made $34.68B in FY2023 from “app, media, and hardware”, so you’re not too far off I reckon.
My guess is that it's the same thing in personal interactions - the depth of emotional genuineness.

Humans universally desire connection to other humans; it's survival, it's desire, it's necessary for emotional processing. Empathy understanding others' emotions; it's a universal skill. We need to be expert readers of emotion. We can sense when it's false or partly covered up, and long for that deeper connection that unlocks our own emotions.

An actor has the challenge of finding genuine emotions to play a fictional person.
