Lol at the sealion in that thread

I’m running Hyprland on my Framework 13 (not doing omarchy cause I’m a NixOS fan,

of course

Thanks, i don’t speak english natively

the legal system is presently committed to treating similar numbers radically differently. No one can tell, simply by looking at a number that is 100 million digits long, whether that number is subject to patent, copyright, or trade secret protection, or indeed whether it is “owned” by anyone at all

If you look at data in the way that best obscures what it actually means, of course it can’t be told apart from other data. Binary is simply a way to encode information that most often has an analogue equivalent. You can of course question the copyright of all works, but looking at them in a hex editor is almost a distraction.

Certainly, all around the world, legal systems have assumed that bits are a medium. But perhaps bits have no color. Perhaps homomorphic encryption implies that color is unmeasurable.

This is getting pretty close to technolibertarianism. Corbin, I like your posts but i can’t get behind this

I’ve never heard of a function being called entire out of complex analysis. But still, it is zero at i.

One of my favourite musicians, Patricia Taxxon is quite vocal on being against intellectual property, but also that AI people should just be able to scrape everything and put it in their machine. It makes me sad.

Nice, the shift phone is pretty well supported on postmarketos and their choice of firmware looks consumer friendly

Just here to note that @dgerard had a clippy pfp before it was cool

Samsung developer sends AI slop to linux mailing list

A very big problem with this study is that participants that don’t delegate are not asked to do anything regarding cheating, while the ones that do are presented with various choices that influence them. “choosing a setting on a dial that ranged from ‘maximize accuracy’ to ‘maximize profit’”. In this way, it doesn’t “control” for anything.

One of the authors is from the Center for Adaptive Rationality, obviously making a reference to the lesswrong CFAR.

I know I’m commenting on an old post but i just saw an AI modified version of this image. Didn’t even realize at first, but text was cut off, punctuation was bad and the biggest tell was the slot machine picture. Why would someone do that?

I remember being disappointed how much latency there was when streaming with ffmpeg to my phone with some codecs. This sounds great!

That horse should be the mascot of this instance

Computers use both big endian and little endian and it doesn’t seem to matter much. Yet humans should switch their entire number system?

It’s hard to come up with analogies for AI because it’s so goddamn stupid. It’s like if asbestos was flammable.

I don’t know static site generators, but I took a look at your site and the text doesn’t render! The font file appears to not be good. Also sorry for having to move to another software.

rsyslog goes “AI first”, for what reason? no one knows.

Opening ipython greeted me with this: “Tip: IPython 9.0+ has hooks to integrate AI/LLM completions.”

I wish open source projects would stop doing this.

Thanks for the work you do on Newgrounds! This sentence stuck out to me

No more worrying about lack of content or fickle UGC creators Oh they’re just publically advertising their company to be anti-union. Bold.

Woah i had no idea. Apparently he also made a web crypto miner used in hacked sites.

Was checking out the QOI image format and the politics of the dev and found that he is pretty comfortable around the ladybird people. (sigh) Also the r slur on twitter.

Really amazing that such a simple format achieves PNG sizes and encoding speeds. 1-page specification, though it’s more like 2 with a bit bigger text, for bragging rights.

That is the kind of writing that absolutely anyone can get a thing out of. Will cause me to introspect.
