It certainly reads like it. Bots are everywhere now.

Sure, that's why I said implicitly. Publishers will always state a maximalist position but the truth of what they accept is what they tolerate without suing.

And, regrettably, The Archive lent books regardless of physical possession. Publishers had accepted the prior arrangement before The Archive decided to push it, if not explicitly t…

Sure, that's true until you hit a difficult problem where the smaller models thrash endlessly whereas its big sibling can solve it with one prompt.

As a member, the gas savings pay the annual fee, and I get my staples from Costco every few months. Peanut butter, paper towels, TP, tissues, and sometimes mushrooms and washed gre…

Can you elaborate on SELinux? It affected me too but I just had to add :Z to my mount argument. Curious about whether there's further impact I'm unaware of.

I presume he's exhilarated that the government is taking the threat seriously and banning foreign nationals from accessing these super dangerous tools. Congratulations, Dario!

Thank you for sharing these wonderful stories!

You're also not paying to search on Google.

Did you read what you shared? It’s talking about security cameras, low-bitrate video. FTA: "Myth Busted: At security camera bitrates (400-800 Kbps), H.265 provides negligible compr…

Still they are not notes, which means GP continues to be valid.

This is exactly what I meant. It's not the ability to build things; of course you can. The progress has been in agreeing on a coherent interface everyone uses and which handles 99%…

That's a fair question. It's part ecosystem, part tooling. The ghcup, stack, cabal mishmash is closer to maven than a tool with a modern streamlined UI like cargo. And yes, Haskell…

As someone who loves Haskell more than any other language, some challenges are - the tooling is decades behind, say, Rust or Go - finding the right library in looks very different …

Every time I see a post about the TI calculators, I think about how much I dislike their interface, and it's all because I started out on a Casio.

It's usually a small amount of waste, and handling gas is very different from distillate. You'd need to either liquify that gas or collect it to a pipeline in order to make it usef…

If your mind goes to TLS when you read crypto, you surely do live under a rock ... in bliss.

That is understandable, but the issue is the sudden drop in quality and the silent surge in token usage. It also seems like the warning should be in channel and not on X. If I want…

That's what I've done for years. Long pressing is much more pleasant. I wish Apple would give us a hint rather than requiring us to chance upon this recommendation on HN.

Well it's good to be honest, and so I commend you on that. So the hierarchy is - our kids - "third-world orphans" - other species For what it's worth, I'm not denying the benefit w…

These are the creatures we kill with poison and carry experiments on.

Rick Roderick on Habermas. The series "Self Under Siege" is one of my favorite things on YouTube. Highly recommend watching all 8 in order. https://youtu.be/aXkmmfaZhEg

Stealing this brilliant idea. Thank you for sharing!

That's the first thing that came to mind when I saw this website. The Bay Area is famous for its numerous superfund sites (among many other things, thankfully).

It's good to see just how far we can push the mods here until we finally face consequences! Thank you for keeping this place healthy day after day after day.
