ruby comes preinstalled on macos. so if you want to script a mac without installers or non oob software, it’s that or perl or bash or appkescript.

well the people who did the Higgs boson theory worked and re-worked for years all the prior work about elementary particles and arguably did a bunch of re-mixing of all the previous “there might be a new elementary particle here!” work until they hit on something that convinced enough peers that it could be validated in a real-world experiment.

by which i mean to say that it doesn’t seem completely implausible that an llm could generate the first tentative papers in that general direction. perhaps one could go back and compute the likelihood of the first papers on the boson given only the corpus to date before it as researchers seem to be trying to do with the special relativity paper which is viewed as a big break with physics beforehand.

crypto is a kind of live estimate of the frustration with government restrictions on using one’s own property. that in itself seems to have some social value.

in the US, banks will question you if you try to withdraw your own cash from your own bank account past a certain limit set decades ago and never adjusted while the dollar continues to lose value.

…or ‘08 capital controls and being prevented from withdrawing your own funds from your own bank account as happened in Greece back then.

in many educational systems, aptitude in math (the more abstract, the better) is conflated with intelligence. so maybe many of us have internalized we should valorize it?

ok so , in theory, “Mark” (the author of the original app in question in the original post) could change some of the verbiage around his app and resubmit claiming 230?

source?

i am not a lawyer, so please treat this as more of a question: my belief was that whether it’s ok to film in a public place is a matter of state law.

> The governor could create and disband a militia to defend the state.

so you’re saying a governor could declare their state to be under attack and organize a militia maybe even using state funds?

is there some point of app abstraction where i can claim section 230 protection?

thanks for sharing! someone had explained to me the concept of “color of money” in payment systems years back and this matches up well.

to go further: let’s say i don’t even define a purpose for the app but just leave it open to users to define their metadata labeling scheme and all the app does is index the videos labeled in a common way. perhaps endusers agree on redit or on some wiki how they will label posts. the app just traverses the labeling scheme and provides some basic viewing and searching locally; without a server involved beyond youtube. i’m just wondering whether this new situation essentially criminalizes metadata.

so if i build an app that enables endusers to upload videos from their phones to youtube and then offers a labeling system so that ice-related (or other) activities can be interlinked and searched/discovered/traversed i am suddenly engaging in proscribed software development? how far down does this slope go???

i give feedback by copy-pasting output. hence the round and round. maybe if i had a sandbox that the model could run on autonomously it might ho better/faster.

i don’t have a strong view either way, but as a data point: I've heard the word “muggle” used in casual conversation and i don’t run in circles where harry potter is considered required reading.

i’ve had little luck getting ai systems to correctly set up networking for a set of vms. they tend to go round and round with ip tables commands that don’t ultimately solve the problem. is config fundamentally harder than writing code ?

yes, i definitely walked away with that impression. maybe they reserve the better experience for mire desirable candidates :)

i’ve interviewed with aws and received offers twice over the years. the first time they made me pay for my own lunch. the second time no lunch break was afforded. i didn’t accept the offers though i know several truly excellent people who work there.

if the avp is too expensive imagine apple ouija! the connection fees alone would be like making an international phone call in the eighties :)

you can but apparently the avp can capture higher fidelity imagery than iphone .

i imagine it would be like the family photo moment when there us some level of staging for posterity.

is there oss that will scour and identify iffy certs on a box?

i want to capture 3d video of loved ones before they’re gone

i’m afraid i’ll look back and regret that i didn’t capture 3d memories of parents and grandparents when it was technically feasible because of a few dollars…

how so they supposedly do it?

except for the example of math from which after about a thousand years of number theory you get cryptography and computers.

unless you travel to the 25% of the world they antagonize politically.

or unless you don’t comply quickly enough when they say “jump” and they unilaterally take away “your” gvoice number.

having crossed one of these superlative Guizhou bridges i can attest to their ability to inspire a sense of wonder like other large-scale human accomplishments.

not a bad idea if your average file size is a terabyte and there’s never a sure way to get a clean binary.

one of the things i took away about category theory is that it allows you to avoid repeating certain arguments which boil down to so-called “abstract nonsense” ie they have nothing to do with the specific objects you’re dealing with but rather are a consequence of very generic mapping relationships between them. maybe better versed people can give specifics.

as a very broad example there are multiple ways to define a “homology” (ex simplicial, singular, etc) functor associating certain groups to topological spaces as invariants. but the arguments needed to prove properties of the relationships between those groups can be derived from very general properties of the definitions and don’t need to be re-argued from the very fine definitions of each type of homology.

i think.
