41,796,200 | comment | viraptor | 2024-10-10T06:40:46 | null | > Why doesn’t Bluesky block known keywords and terms like “child pornography” or “cp”?<p>That's 90s tech and useless today. Not only are long-term accounts never going to post it verbatim (if they want to survive on the platform), it will block both normal communication about the issue and unrelated things (lots of cp in shell scripts). There are way better approaches to detection available.<p>When anyone tries that anyway, we get the expected results. Like "the event that can't be mentioned" and "unalive" on YouTube. | null | null | 41,795,838 | 41,794,342 | null | [

41,796,207 | comment | gcau | 2024-10-10T06:41:57 | null | Atleast for drawing/painting/etc, there is no natural talent - you work your ass off practicing, and that's about it. You don't need talent, genetics or money. You don't need art school or classes. The biggest issues beginners have is thinking they lack talent, thinking there's some secret tricks/hacks of how to get better, thinking they need expensive materials/tools. You just need practice.<p>Here is some advice:<p>1. "We all have 10,000 bad drawings in us. The sooner we get them out the better." You'll make some ugly, terrible drawings, even if you put in your 100% best effort, that you just look at and feel terrible and want to give up and quit. It's very important you know you aren't lacking talent, that's what everyone goes through. You're making improvements even if you don't know it. Eventually, you'll make something that makes you go "wow.. this actually looks good", and that will happen more and more often until its just normal.<p>2. Art skills transfer hugely between mediums, so don't stress about picking digital art or painting or drawing/etc. Your effort in learning one is also making you better at the others. Switch between them, try different ones, focus on only 1, whatever you feel like.<p>3. Everyone is different. You may have a different preference or style of what you enjoy, do what works for you.<p>4. Follow some artists you like on twitter/artstation/youtube, look at their art, if you want to make art like them: try to copy it, if they show their process try to copy that.<p>5. You don't need to "Draw every day" or "do 1 hour of study/drawing boxes every week", if that style suits you and you enjoy it great. But it is not needed, and you don't need to do it. Draw whenever you feel like it.<p>6. There are no rules. Use what you want, draw what you want, mix mediums, you don't have to do things like studying old masters or drawing 100 boxes.<p>7. My biggest biggest advice is: there is no secret or missing ingredient, just keep practicing - and secondly, draw what excites you or what you enjoy.<p>Here's some random youtube channels:

There is indeed no "smoking gun". What you say about the citation is possible but I estimate that it's more likely he had a physical copy (I would change my mind about that if we found out he had indeed contacted the authors for citation information).<p>Also, Sassaman has some important points in his favor that Peter Todd lacks:<p>1) he is dead. I find it unlikely that Satoshi is still alive and even more unlikely that he is still alive and very publicly involved in Bitcoin.<p>2) strong connection to one of the white paper's citations<p>3) cares a lot about privacy/anonymity, e.g. he tried to convince Bram Cohen to release BitTorrent anonymously<p>But he also has some points that work against him: not being known as a Windows C++ programmer, his wife not believing him to be Satoshi, etc.<p>Overall I feel Sassaman is more likely than Todd, but I am not convinced he is Satoshi. | null | null | 41,795,830 | 41,783,503 | null | [

Don't focus on creating but use drawing as a method for you to see better and looking at things more carefully. If you develop as an artist, that will be a bonus, and you'll develop into an artist of your own kind. No need to force or motivate yourself into learning. And if you lose interest, just change a subject. Don't treat art as a discipline.<p>Try to draw the same thing more than once. For example next day without seeing your older work. You'll be amazed of how your drawings get better and better. | null | null | 41,756,978 | 41,756,978 | null | null | null | null |

41,796,225 | comment | rajnathani | 2024-10-10T06:45:18 | null | I totally agree, as I took that course during University of Toronto undergrad (either 2013 or 2014) when [Sir?] Geoffrey Hinton decided to flip (this is an official term) the course to have it that we watched the Coursera video course of what is linked above, and ask questions in class. It was extremely hard to understand the course material, and I dropped out a few weeks into it after the first unit test. It is probably one of the most awful introductions to neural networks that exists, and that's why the "go-to" ML courses are ones by Andrew Ng, Jeremy Howard's fast.ai, and others. But to be fair, the class was very math-heavy in terms of the actual underlying implementation of neural networks, and I seemed to be an exception in that class of about 50 or so students (many seemed from the master's program) who simply could grasp much of the math behind it (I'm sure anyone who understand the course material could implement neural nets at a CUDA level). | null | null | 41,793,765 | 41,791,692 | null | null | null | null |

At a visceral level I don’t like it but at an intellectual level I understand why it is the only plausible way forward. There is no easy solution.<p>In automotive, it is common for there to be a requirement that software is supported to some degree for 7-15 years.

A transparent ruler with a bevel (so that you can flip it over and draw along the edge) is good. You get used to how to precisely draw a line between points and how to adjust a drawing to get it as symmetric as possible.<p>Go for it!

41,796,252 | comment | jillesvangurp | 2024-10-10T06:50:13 | null | WASM replaces a language specific vm (javascript) with a general purpose one anywhere javascript vms are currently used. But not exclusively just there. General purpose here means it can run just about anything with a compiler or interpreter for it. Including javascript. So anything, anywhere.<p>Since it is generally implemented as part of the javascript engine, it inherits a lot of stuff that comes with it like sandboxing and access to the APIs that come with it. Standardizing access to that is a bit of an ongoing process but the end state here is that anything that currently can only be done in Javascript will also be possible in WASM. And a lot more that is currently hard or impossible in Javascript. And it all might run a little faster/smoother.<p>That makes WASM many things. But the main thing it does is remove a lot of restrictions we've had on environments where Javascript is currently popular. Javascript is a bit of a divisive language. Some people love it, some people hate it. It goes from being the only game in town to being one of many things you can pick to do a thing.<p>It's been styled as a Javascript replacement, as a docker replacement, as a Java replacement, a CGI replacement (this article), etc. The short version of it is that it is all of these things. And more. | null | null | 41,795,561 | 41,795,561 | null | [

41,796,253 | comment | IshKebab | 2024-10-10T06:50:37 | null | Yeah.. I think the problem is when product <i>dictates</i> what is going to be implemented without asking developers if it's feasible. It happens.<p>At the other end of the scale there are many programmers who are in the habit of making up bullshit technical reasons why something can't (or shouldn't!) be done when the real reason is they just don't want to have to do it.<p>Often they'll resist doing a useful feature because it can't be done perfectly. For example we can't report browser tab memory usage because some memory is shared between tabs so the numbers wouldn't make sense. I used to do that until I had a manager that changed my view. | null | null | 41,795,948 | 41,794,566 | null | [

41,796,257 | comment | frereubu | 2024-10-10T06:50:53 | null | Does anybody have any stats for the use of these kinds of buttons? A few of our clients - victim services and honour-based abuse services - ask us to add these kinds of buttons, but I've always wondered they actually get used instead of e.g. people just closing the browser window. The issue for us with adding tracking is that it would slow the interaction which, even if it was only a few milliseconds, isn't something we want to risk. (Or worse, if the JS it breaks and the link doesn't work). I guess it would have to be some kind of post-hoc survey for victims of domestic abuse who've used a site and are now somewhere safe.<p>Edit - thanks to @jdietrich below there are some stats on this link, which shows a correlation between events you'd expect to increase the rush of domestic abuse, such as the Covid lockdowns: <a href="https://github.com/alphagov/govuk-design-system/discussions/2923">https://github.com/alphagov/govuk-design-system/discussions/...</a> I do wonder how they got those stats though.<p>Edit 2 - I'm so glad this got posted! I've been wondering about this for ages and it's really nice to get some evidence for its use. Reading through the comments has also solidified my thinking around "why don't people just close the browser window" - many people who use honour-based abuse services are very computer illiterate, don't have time to learn about incognito windows / (Ctrl | Command) + W, and can only snatch computer time here and there. Abusers can look back at the browser history, but if the choice is between being discovered on an honour-based abuse website or the chance that the abuser won't look at the history, the second is clearly superior.<p>Edit 3 - I really wonder about the three-press shift keyboard shortcut. Real lack of discoverability, and my worry would be that the lack of consistency across sites would lead to situations where people are on non-gov.uk websites and think that keyboard shortcut would work there too. Although I suppose the fact that the first shift press activates the button in some way does tie it to the presence of the button on screen.<p>Edit 4 - It doesn't seem to be in use on any relevant gov.uk pages. The pilot on the "check for legal aid" pages seems to have ended and it's not on the pages about domestic abuse. | null | null | 41,793,597 | 41,793,597 | null | [

41,796,265 | comment | rramadass | 2024-10-10T06:52:37 | null | You misunderstood my comment.<p>I just used the US and India as examples of the developed world and developing world with which i have personal experience to assert that much much more food is wasted in the former than in the latter. It is not about sending food from one to the other but managing it more effectively when you have people desperately needing it in their own countries (eg. Charities/NGOs, Homeless Shelters, Low-Income groups, Schools etc.). It is well-known that in the developed world the economically impoverished cannot afford healthy food and thus rely on cheap junk-food with the consequence that they suffer more from Poor Health/Obesity/etc. which leads to an unmanageable pressure on the healthcare system and a downward spiral in overall economic output. Everybody suffers as a result.<p>The above linked documentary is pretty good about highlighting the problem in the US. Also watch this documentary <i>Waging a Living</i> to understand how tough life is for the economically underprivileged in the US - <a href="https://www.pbs.org/pov/films/wagingaliving/" rel="nofollow">https://www.pbs.org/pov/films/wagingaliving/</a><p>Finally note that in 2016 France became the first country to outlaw food wastage by supermarkets which should be adopted by all other countries. See <a href="https://zerowasteeurope.eu/library/france-law-for-fighting-food-waste/" rel="nofollow">https://zerowasteeurope.eu/library/france-law-for-fighting-f...</a> and <a href="https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/is-frances-groundbreaking-food-waste-law-working" rel="nofollow">https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/is-frances-groundbreaking-...</a> | null | null | 41,780,443 | 41,775,298 | null | null | null | null |

Also, under Rata Tata, Tata went truly global.
I can only presume that it means increased responsibilities & increased issues. JRD Tata didn't go through the same problems as Ratan Tata did.
And I don't mean that JRD Tata struggled less. Or more for the matter.
The problems were simply different.<p>There is also the fact that we humans are connected 24/7 unlike previous generations.
This also means you don't hear the negativity or problems like we do today about someone.
This is the norm these days. If you need to find the same for older generations, you really need to dig through it.<p>I say this cos everyone I admire from yester generations come out with a lot more mistakes and issues as I learn more about them. I find it humane. It just makes them human. What I admire about Ratan Tata is that he tried to be better person. As much as he can. And he was one of the nicest human as well. That is enough. :) | null | null | 41,796,179 | 41,795,218 | null | null | null | null |
41,796,268 | comment | ralmidani | 2024-10-10T06:52:49 | null | I’m almost 44 and becoming decent at writing Arabic poetry in the classical style. Along with intricate grammatical rules in the language itself, there are strict conventions for meter and rhyme.<p>I enjoyed reading and memorizing when I lived in Syria for 5 years (7th-11th grade), then had a hiatus until my mid-20s when I suddenly started reading and memorizing again, and added reading more explanation and commentary and criticism. I tried to write my own but it was mostly cringe.<p>Every now and then my interest in Arabic poetry has been rekindled. This year, I finally started feeling confident enough to share my poetry with not just with family and close friends, but also on social media.<p>I don’t have a formal learning method as I tend to learn by repetition and osmosis (same with programming), but a few tips:<p>- Examine and study other folks’ work, especially of those who are famous or whom you personally admire. Don’t just examine the works of art themselves, but also seek out any resources that can help you understand the underlying history, tools, conventions, etc.<p>- Balance that with learning via your own endeavors. You’ll probably do better working on things that actually interest you. Personally, I can’t imagine enjoying or doing a good job writing poetry on a subject that doesn’t excite me.<p>- Don’t be shy about seeking feedback. Earlier this year I wrote a poem I was very proud of, but a friend of a friend (a top authority in Arabic and a poet in his own right) picked it apart quite thoroughly. It was humbling, but I internalized the feedback and came back stronger and more confident. | null | null | 41,756,978 | 41,756,978 | null | null | null | null |

At those prices, the guy was a **ing prodigy.<p>This is like aiming for the trees and missing the forest - the corrupt entity here is the Indian government which facilitates such corruption and monopolization and makes it hard for new entrants to compete. | null | null | 41,796,191 | 41,795,218 | null | null | null | null |
41,796,289 | comment | Yujf | 2024-10-10T06:56:41 | null | Its not just vulnerabilities. In theory you should also get more stability.<p>For example I like to play Civ with a friend, but stopped because about once every 30 minutes one of us would have their game crash. If it was written in Rust, I assume it might be more stable. | null | null | 41,795,491 | 41,791,773 | null | [

41,796,291 | comment | realusername | 2024-10-10T06:56:53 | null | > think most people do not understand that Google funnels a lot of their profits to make Chrome and Android into OSS.<p>Chrome maybe but for Android, it's debatable at best to state it as OSS. AOSP doesn't run on a single phone on earth, not even the emulator and the freedom of users to modify it is very limited in practice.<p>I'd put it as "mostly source available" instead of open source. | null | null | 41,793,933 | 41,784,287 | null | null | null | null |

41,796,296 | comment | torginus | 2024-10-10T06:58:02 | null | <i>Just in Time (JIT) compilation is not possible as dynamic Wasm code generation is not allowed for security reasons. </i><p>This sounds.. not right. Honestly,this is an essential feature for allowing workloads like hot reloading code cleanly.<p>I'm quite convinced the alleged security argument is bull. You can hot reload JS (or even do wilder things like codegen) at runtime without compromising security. Additionally, you can emulate codegen or hot reload, by dynamically reloading the entire Wasm runtime and preserving the memory, but the user experience will be clunky.<p>I don't see any technical reason why this couldn't be possible. If this were a security measure, it could be trivially bypassed.<p>Also, WASM bytecode is very similar conceptually to .NET IL, Java bytecode etc., things designed for JIT compilation.<p>I kind of dislike WASM. It's a project lacking strong direction and will to succeed in a timely manner. First, the whole idea is conceptually unclear, its name suggests that it's supposed to be 'assembly for the web', a machine language for a virtual CPU, but it's actually an intermediate representation meant for compiler backends, with high-level features planned such as GC support.
It's still missing basic features, like the aforementioned hot reload, non-hacking threading, native interfacing with the DOM (without Javascript ideally), low-overhed graphics/compute API support, low-level audio access etc.
You can't run a big multimedia app without major compromises in it. | null | null | 41,795,561 | 41,795,561 | null | [

41,796,297 | comment | flohofwoe | 2024-10-10T06:58:27 | null | In a way yes, except that WASM supports many more languages (e.g. back when I started to look into running C/C++ code in the browser - around 2010 or so - it was absolutely impossible to compile C/C++ to the JVM, which at the time would have been nice because Java Applets still were a thing - of course WASM didn't exist yet either, but Emscripten did, which eventually led to the creation of WASM via asm.js). | null | null | 41,795,918 | 41,795,561 | null | null | null | null |

41,796,299 | comment | bjoli | 2024-10-10T06:59:22 | null | I think you are underestimating how much being in an abusive relationship or even just poverty in general (poor people are more likely to be abused, so they're double punished) reduces your options and opportunities.<p>This goes for everything. Place where you live. The food that is on offer. Work opportunities, and with that the ability to plan life. Even living large enough to have a private space, like offering your kids an undisturbed place to study or - like in the post - somewhere you can safely report abuse.<p>I have seen it more than once: if someone from a poor family grows up and does really well in school and in college and breaks with the life they had before that is usually not enough. Because when there is time to write a CV the kids from the middle class all had parents that made them do other things. Charity work. Play the trumpet with a youth orchestra that somehow got to play in Carnegie hall. Chemistry camp. Dancing with a youth ballet company at the met. The system is rigged from the start. True meritocracy was never a thing.<p>A feature like this takes a developer a short time to implement, and if it saves someones life or stops abuse it is worth it. | null | null | 41,794,903 | 41,793,597 | null | [
