This is not helpful. "everybody" and "everyone" and "no one" are meaningless catch alls. I understand where you are coming from but this is a very limited world view that does not add anything to the conversati

"you know it when you see it" is a trap and ripe for abuse in its own right. Your description however is pretty spot on for this moment in internet evolution. Interesting to me is that I pay for youtube premium so I don't see

> Twitter or Instagram are not and never have been platforms in which people form social communities with their peers. By peers do you mean people they know in person or demographic peers? I'm not going to anecdata [edit: then I do]

That's a good point. The problem for me is where the line is drawn. Is a car enthusiast forum social media? How about youtube comments? I think society is generally improved when the teenage generation is at least part of discussions.

Or perhaps we should watch what happens in Australia and draw lessons from it? I have a hard time telling a teenager that they cannot socialize with people just because it is via electronic means. I also do not like teenagers identities man

Interesting. I do not agree with your summary of his post, in fact he goes so far as to say "an idea, really. Incredibly half-baked. Poke all the holes you want. It’s very unwrought and muy unripe." So yes, we can laugh at the pro

The sense of entitlement is strong in these comments. If you haven’t built or maintained OSS I’m wondering why your opinion matters [edit: that's harshly worded I could have been more nuanced, hopefully the point is taken and it is a q

I haven't done a video call on it but it does work for youtube. It's best to pause a video at the start but it buffers and plays just fine. Blocky but certainly watchable.

This is nice. As you point out the underlying data is transient but you add value by persisting it. Good luck!

Nice that instead of completely cutting you off at the cap they put it in super slow 500 kbits. That is actually usable and used to be the fastest speed you could get at home.

I agree. I was there. There was no DEI and “not promoting white men” was not a thing.

Is there anything similar to this in the local world? I’m setting up a full local “ai” stack on a 48gb MacBook for my sensitive data ops. Using webui. Will still use sota cloud services for coding.

This was 1996. A typical computer had tens of megabytes of memory with throughput a fraction of what we have today. Appending an element instead of reading, parsing, inserting and validating the entire document is a better solution in so ma

A bit cryptic but I see where you are going. In this particular case the judges are challenging the “total concept and feel” test that is the standard. They say it's way too nonspecific to make a legal standard. Duchamp's original

I agree. I do like the general idea as an exploration. Perhaps the idea is to use an LLM to emulate users such that some user-based problems can be detected early. It is very frustrating to ship a product and have a product show stopper rig

This code was likely written on a Macintosh Plus with a 9 in (23 cm) monochrome display that had a resolution of 512 × 342. Something to keep in mind. That's very little screen real estate (tiny!) and something that had to be respected

I appreciate your attempt to defend this position and I, and others, wish you good luck. In my many decades of working with humans writing code it simply has never happened.

I don't think he is saying that. As I said in my other comment here I think he is just drawing a potential parallel to other historic work that was done in a private(secret) domain. The larger point is we simply don't know so it&#

I particularly like the end of the post where he compares the history of nuclear fission to the progress on quantum computing. Traditional encryption might already be broken but we have not been told.
