Practically speaking, what it translates to in this case is that your database goes to sleep when it's idle. This means when you try to use it again, there is a cold start penalty. You can architect your app around this a little bit, l

I think the point is that a company can be owned and ran by "the good guys" until it isn't. This is why so many people are worried about the future of Bandcamp.

You forgot the part where a holding company eventually buys Stability and starts to squeeze their customers that built the core part of their product around a pricing structure that's "static + CPI". With a bit less snark; I

Agreed! There's also no way this is 5 years away from being viable. I just checked the timestamps on my Dall-E Mini generated images. They're dated June 2022 This is what people were doing on commodity hardware back then: https:&

I think you're being misinterpreted, but presumably the access to company private data is simply data returned by Q, not parsed by Q. It doesn't seem to be clarified anywhere that it is indeed the case, so it's a good point.

POSIX compliance is practically a non-issue for fish as it's not intended to be a replacement for bash/shell scripts. It's intended to be an interactive shell (eg. your daily driver) and to that end, it's quite good. The

Interesting find! I get some astroturfing vibes from some of those edits, but I'm also a bit paranoid about those things. The AGI article now seems heavily biased towards GPT/LLM style models and reads more like list of OpenAI ach

Discussed in another thread, but what OpenAI might call AGI and what other people might call AGI are two different things: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38316378#38319586

I wouldn't categorise Kafka as a database.

The "problem" is that a database as a queue doesn't infinitely scale, but nothing infinitely scales. If you're starting to reach the limits of Postgres-as-a-queue then you've either done something very wrong or ve

I think you've touched on a certain power dynamic. Advertisers, for the most part, are not compelled to continue to advertise their product on a particular platform and would often rather pull advertising than deal with an angry mob. T

OpenAI (re?)defines AGI as a general AI that is able to perform most tasks as good as or better than a human. It's possible that under this definition and by skewing certain metrics, they are quite close to "AGI" in the same

Don't take this as combative, but that sounds like nothing more than a science fiction plot. Putting arguments for how close we are or aren't to AGI aside; there's no way you could spend the amount of money it would take to t

I think a key difference between Windows and MacOS is that Microsoft has (historically at least) not stopped you from installing newer versions of Windows on older hardware, provided it's fast enough to run it. Trying to run newer vers

Yes, very much along the same lines. Though proving that a photo was taken with a certain camera is not really enough. You need to prove that it came from a particular photographer/journalists camera who licensed their images to an out

Short answer, no, there's not. Adversarial AI could be used to find deepfakes, but then AI will be trained on those adversaries etc. There is no real solution to this problem, but my thoughts on the matter are that in the future it wil

If the only viable fix is to downgrade clients to an earlier protocol, do you take that to mean that there is a fundamental weakness in the protocol itself?
