> U.S. intellectual property case law has yet to catch up with the rise of AI image generators

Does it need to? We have a world for calling a painting in someone's else style and adding their signature: forgery.

I would compare it to reselling mortgage bundles before 2008 crash. It is about moving risks to those who are more comfortable with it. Not a great sign but doesn't really indicate that sky is going to fall any time soon.

Both Z.AI and xAI have already proven you can't trust them, like at all. I guess other harnesses are in "I don't trust it, but it is convenient" category.

And Pi is considered the neutral choice: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49926069

> As models are getting better, harnessing will shrink

That can be true only for locally hosted models. The more supplied tools can do, the less data has to be exchanged with OpenAI/Anthropic servers. So bad harness means both higher lag and token usage.

It was discussed here at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49674451 . Frankly I was sure this is the dupe, just based by the title.

As long as mods are human volunteers, can they ever keep up with scale of reddit? I regularly see submissions (on old.reddit's /r/all) that got to 10k+ upvotes and 200+ comments in hour or two before it was taken down for breaking given subredit rules.

Maybe we will skip few steps and add RGB lights to all GPU/NPU devices, that turn red when running "unaligned" code/model.

It would be trivial for spammers to at least use different pattern. I am afraid they keep to the default, cause real users do the same. I am not surprised, the chance of colliding with other user login, on registration, on such old and popular website is high.

If it isn't human landing on Moon/Mars then I can wait for weekly space news write-up on Ars Technica.

29 v2 satellites (around 4 times lighter than v3)

I think SpinLaunch is great example. They were actually able to fund and make a working prototype, tested it, but still decided it is not practical after all, before pivoting to production of knockoff Starlink-like satellites.

I don't know why people are so fixated on heating as some kind of gotcha. If we already assumed magical 16km^2 solar array, then we can also assume matching size radiator, with heatpumps. If ISS can do it, then there is no technical issue with doing it on bigger scale. It "only" doesn't make any sense from financial viewpoint, terrestrial datacenters beat it in every way.

NVidia's recent support for warm (45 °C) water cooling for their new racks probably had more impact on price of compute than than space servers will ever have.

Why exactly it is clickbaity? It makes perfect sense to me, I understand title as: people told not use AI fired for using AI - without any need for additional context. Mechanical Turk was shut down for exactly same reason, it was always a race to the bottom and using LLMs was cheaper than even third world gig workers. Verifying if task were done by humans is probably harder than doing them in the first place.

It will take even longer when they discover supply chain attacks on compilers. I mean they where mostly theoretical so far but that might change any day now.

It has more comments than points, IFAIK that causes flamewar suppression to kick in and take it off the frontpage. It would be great for submission to include year in title when it matters but I doubt it can be reliably automated.

To be fair those are rookie numbers. Nothing says "we value your privacy" as GDPR cookie banner with 1k+ "partners" list.

If I remember correctly I got a call from GMG, 15 years ago, to confirm a purchase of … $15 game key. Maybe Google Ads have such great deal with card acquirers they don't care about fraud/chargeback rate. Or it is the other way around, the amount of fraudulent spending is so high they don't even try fighting it.

> maybe I just don't understand how world operates Amazon decided friction during purchase is more costly than asking for CVV/CVC. For better or worse (like in case of Ford Pinto) corporations can count their money.

All previous similar issues got hand waved with "Mozilla has to make money somehow". I am afraid one day remaining users will decide that Chromium based browsers provide a better experience in most use cases, and now have same privacy guarantees as Firefox. Looking at market share maybe that had already happened and pragmatism won over ideology, and we will all suffer the consequences of such monoculture.

Not a fan of JEP-531, looks the repeat of Optional. Are we really so afraid of extending syntax that we are going to add a class instead of field modifier?

    private static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger(Whatever.class);

This was already verbose enough that Lombok has @Log4j for it, adding `lazy` keyword in front of `final` won't make it any worse.

I mean, thanks to crazy data center over-investment there is real chance that Oracle will need to sell some of their assets. Somehow I can't imagine many potential buyers that would be a good custodian of Java.

> but unless you're defending against some sort of denial of service attack, in practice it rarely matters.

That "rarely" contains most sites/webservices. Before programming languages started defending against it by applying randomization (and sometimes replacing degraded maps/buckets with treemaps) it was a real threat. I remember people were able to trigger DoS either by specially crafted query string params or HTTP headers. After all both are shoved into some kind of map by frameworks, before request is even passed to application code.

How does handling support tickets/bugs work with such approach? If LLM sometimes can't handle it - do I have to beg it to keep trying, as humans are no longer an viable fallback?

> "But they can't possibly review every ad before publishing" they say.

That defense doesn't work either way as they (and Facebook) also reject manual reports from users.

Endless stream of "Your review was removed - place was closed down" is a interesting reward for reviewing places. I still wonder how can a beach just stop existing.

Will it ever work until a TPM like module is directly integrated into camera sensor? Older attempts of Nikon and Canon got broken, same had happened with C2PA implementation for Android - if it gets anywhere close to CPU it is insecure.

And I still can't go over how this title looks like draft version with placeholder, published a bit too fast. How could anyone thing a single letter is good choice for an company/service name?

I am surprised they didn't rollback their change from 2019 when they included up to 5 private repos in free plan. Before that you had to pay to keep your code from being publicly visible.

Did it also give you a tip to "log in to your usual Wifi network"? I have a feeling all large corps let their heuristics run wild with little to none supervison.

That is a lot more Star Citizen players than I expected.

Also that Factorio chart is weird: https://steamdb.info/app/427520/charts/#max . I don't think I even saw another game with such steady player count. It is horizontal line after 1.0 to DLC release, and after DLC to present.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ototoxic_medication#Other_exam... has some sources. Worth noting NSAIDs like aspirin are also listed there.
