Fine. Wishing I burned in a Fire isn't technically a Death Threat. Congratulations.

I have no incentive to be nice either, but I am because I want to. And If you are nice while constructively formulating your anger you don't get banned. easy.

sounds like you are just being an asshole because you hate the general consensus on this site, and can't be bothered to be polite in favor of creating new accounts all the time. That makes you the asshole from my perspective.

Have a great Day.

I didn't, I just went to his profile and checked the comments since I had a feeling he wasn't being rational. And I saw a lot of very angry comments made before this one.

I'm not the guy that's banning you.

I come here with the expectation that this isn't 4chan and I leave my opinions exactly as they are while still being polite. This isn't inevitable. Else nobody would use this site. You can be upset about many things like AI and people will share that sentiment or not. You can read the Guidelines, it's not hard to see they aren't unreasonable. And it's easy to see if you violate them.

Thanks for the Death Threat.

rust is a tool like any other, grow up.

I personally find it easier to work with than c++ in many cases.

EDIT: On second look... you okay dude? That's an awful lot of anger and swearing for an account created 11 minutes ago. Please calm down for your own sake or do something different at least

this is something I've been waiting for a long time. I will be watching this with great interest.

If this ever gets far enough I would love to see something similar to yabridge implemented on top of this and be able to run AU binaries on linux.

you are the person who posted this promoting your own site.

Any flashy Website using the Word University immediately catches red flags for me.

Also calling this inspired by the demoscene is an insult to all true demoscene coders.

I've felt worthless for a long time. Sucked at school, suck at university, jobless. But something about the things I do has given me comfort. Trying to make music, trying to draw. And just doing the things another version of me would look at and think "that's nice"

I've also been a social outcast for a while now. But putting my creative works out there makes me feel like I'm building the tools to appreciate myself and be appreciated by others. And knowing I can be appreciated, even if I'm not, is enough to give me a sense of self worth.

Definitely a fantasy, just one that people try to realize at the moment.

As somebody without an account the site doesn't work great in my experience though.

I agree with most of your points, but saying you shouldn't work in audio if you can't tell the difference between 192khz and 44.1khz is a bit elitist imo. And saying you're color blind if you can't tell the difference is like saying you're blind if you don't have 20/20 vision and shouldn't draw. You can always use meters to check for aliasing artifacts.

It's not like all of your samples and virtual instruments are 192khz or even 96k. Many are 48khz or even 44.1k.

I think there are many cases where people never need to go above 44.1khz unless you maybe have saturation on the master bus. I agree that good dithering is important though and think that there hasn't been enough research on that so far.

They know you haven't actually read the article.

I try not to depend on these AI tools, not having them is inconvenient but I still write every line of code myself, so the speed I work at remains always the same.

I also never keep plans running for months on end. I pause them most of the time relying on free usage and resume them during busy hours when I run out of free usage. writing the code myself is also more fun tbh.

>I couldn't even move to real coding in 1 hour

That sounds... concerning? I would try to manage the context of the work you're doing yourself and only consult it for certain functions.

I don't think you need the very best from Anthropic if you follow these rules, you might also save quite a bit of money.

Sorry If this sounds like a lecture I just wanna give tips to continue your work. Best of Luck in getting your account back!

From what I gather the hatred for AI among musicians and artists is pretty universal. I can only speak for myself. but for me and the way that I draw and make music AI can only replace, never complement my creative process.

to be fair I wouldn't call people operating AI Image generators creative people. At best they're people curious about the technology itself, anybody willing to learn and do it for the sake of being creative does it themselves.

the demoscene is about putting in lots of technical effort into programs even if it would be completely unreasonable in any real software project.

This vibe coded mess is putting in so little technical effort even though it is completely unreasonable for any piece of software associated with the demoscene.

>Weights helped me draft and proof this story.

I'm suprised no one talks about this. AI Art isn't Art. AI Poetry isn't Art. And I'm tired of it. I know hacker news isn't the best place to complain about that but still... I'm not gonna read something somebody didn't put in the effort to write on their own. Especially not Poetry.

When you are hearing music, you are hearing the end Result of hundreds of intentional decisions made over a long time of deliberation, same can be said for Art. I simply do not hear or see that with AI Music or Art, even If I don't know it is AI generated.

A big part of listening to Music for me is relatability. I want to understand the tools and sounds used. And then I can make something similar with the tools I have.

None of that exists in AI. Music can only inspire others if it is the result of inspiration and real decisions that can be understood.

Because those people reject the principles that uphold that distinction, and so do I.

Not from America, but can I ask... Is the SAT that difficult?

The slop sickens me. If deep down there still is a part of you that enjoys problem solving and creativity, then you should always do it yourself. The technology still isn't even that great.

I wanted to write a simple midi chord controller for my phone to make music, emphasis on simple. AI can't do it and couldn't even help me on small code fragments, because it doesn't look at the problem through the lens of my artistic creativity.

Vibe coding creates weak men because you reject the deeper meaning behind what you are creating. Vibe coding creates weak men because they can't code.

A single example being 14 cad a month, with the implication being that you have lots of monthly subscriptions for "small apps" sends shivers down my spine. I know YC has lots of wealthy people, but come on!

No Offense taken, but what's the point in using AI for anything unless you don't want to do it? I want live my life not consume information, is that really so bad?

The security advantage I see in mtotp is that you never reveal the password to the system you are authenticating with, but that there is also no electronic device that can be compromised

I've lost the joy in programming, the only thing I'm good at, I now make horrible music, but at least I don't exist as the means to an end that I don't control.

Step 1 in this situatoon is to try and see if this is a known mathematically unsolved problem, and if it is, giving up.

Isn't this just trying to find a hamiltonian cycle, isn't this NP hard? That's when I would give up, especially because you put so many constraints in it to make it human walkable.

Edit: Of course you don't have to give up, but it's good to know what you get yourself into

I remember asking myself this question years ago, and came to 162 bits. I was just a kid back then so the logic is probably wrong but I do wonder how simple the encoding could be under those constraints...

Edit: Here are the Notes

0 Empty

10 Pawn

1100 Knight

1101 Rook

1110 Bishop

1111 Queen

32 + 32 + 472

2 times 6 bits: position of the kings

30 bits: color mask

120 + 2*6 + 30 = 162 bits

We can store the rest using the methods from the blog post and add 18 bits for promotion, giving 180 bits.

I'm sure this isn't the most efficient way, and I think I had other methods and considered things like the bishops being able to occupy 32 squares, though special casing doesn't make sense because of promotions.

Technically if you got 8 bishops/queens/knights/rooks You would occupy another 16 bits, giving 196 bits

I think the upper limit can be reduced at the cost of increasing the lower limit

EDIT2: I think I made the assumption at the time that to promote one piece you needed to capture at least one enemy pawn, giving the space for the two bits, which means the upper bound is actually 180 bits

Would love to see other people try in the comment section

Honestly, if these image models still use diffusion with random seeds at their core, it might be actually more secure than blurring it yourself.

Honestly this should've been introduced with the new AI Features from the start, it's just shipping slightly too late to fully regain my trust.

I couldn't in good conscience work like that, I believe the risk of bad AI generated code due to the tiniest of output variation is far too high. Especially in systems that need to maintain a large state governed by many rules and edge cases.

I remember another hacker news commentator describing these orbital data centers as a obviously bad idea to the point where any investments into that technology are incomprehensible. I share that sentiment, is there something I'm missing?
