Do you have contact info to consult about this stuff in a few months? Building something adjacent and analyst usability is top of mind. I started my career doing detections (Snort / ClamAV) but have been out of the loop doing developme

LayoutLM [1] is the closest that I have seen you what you are asking. It is applied to documents but essentially takes positional and visual information into account for text extraction. For example, extracting a total from the line that re

Most training cases are covered by fair use. The problem is when the work is licensed with specific clauses about derivative works. The weights are a derivative work of the open source code on which they were trained.

They need to 1) release the model weights as open source, and 2) license code produced by the model as open source. It is a derivative work of open source code. This is 100% a large corporation abusing and undermining the open source ecosys

Yes to the second part, no to the first part. Let's punish these entities until the cost of storing (and leaking) my personal data is too high for them to stomach.

It is like when you give away mosquito nets and put all the local makers out of business. It is worse in the long run if you tank the job market then leave.

Huh, my company would be a good candidate for a community like this. Unfortunately, I took the fast.ai "live" course through one of the SF universities. It was a very expensive beta test of the free course and the instructors were

No one is talking about running a business. We're talking about code bureaucracy. I don't like front end, still happy to do it though, the issue is mandatory meetings, code reviews, design docs, and tests to make a simple UI chang

Google in Sunnyvale was like this. We had lunch together but the office was eerily quiet. People would catch themselves talking, apologize, then go to a meeting room if they wanted to continue. Low key hated it and I'm not a social per

I have been saying this. Large corporations are command economies! There is a ton of bureaucracy too.

Open ecosystems foster growth and innovation though. Yes, companies have tried making something hackable and failed but other companies have tried closed eco systems and failed. There is a reason I have a PineWatch instead of an Apple watch

I'm taking a break from a few social media sites right now (not hn). I've noticed I suddenly have time to listen to books, read my email, text my friends. When you don't have a dumping ground for every thought you have a lot

Can we just move them to the US in one go? Asking for a friend.

It is not a human though. It is a function approximated from inputs and outputs. The laws are different and the licenses call out derivative works.

I have a hard time believing that it is financial because even high earning SWEs are skipping it. Feels a lot more like both parties want a career than an inability to afford.

For the downvotes, less than 10% of transactions in the US in 2013 [1]. When I first saw this for Canada I looked it up and it really only accounts for something like 3% there. 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_i

I can imagine doing this and did not get slapped (~15 years ago). Did not respect my school teachers and am doing great IRL.

To continue on this, it is saying that the US is not dangerous but people do not realize that. That is the implication, for the study to validate it there would need to be a question of how in-danger you've felt in that time. That way
