Or, in Vim and Emacs, just delete!
Off topic, but that’s actually my biggest pet peeve vim. You copy text one place to overwrite some other text, you delete the existing text and they you go to paste and… the buffer has been overwritten. It makes so much more sense to require users to hit the obvious, composable ‘yd’ in the cases they want to copy than an arcane incantation in the cases they want to overwrite text.
Every developer should… most importantly, not be scared of SIMD
Seems like he should be recommending fearless_simd [1], the Rust crate by Raph Levian and the folks at Linebender :)
More seriously, if you’re looking to add SIMD to your Rust code, that’s the package to start with.
The end result[1] looks quite impressive! The animation feels like it's quite high quality--very smooth. However, some things seem off: bad lip sync, minor animation errors, discontinuous scene-to-scene feel. Given that these are supposed to be their best examples, meant as advertisements, I would guess these errors are hard to fix using only the models.
So my verdict is that AI-only anime is still not there yet (although it would be cool to have a world where one dedicated and talented artist could make a high quality anime). But at the same time, anime studios will probably start incorporating AI into their workflow, getting high-quality-looking scenes for very cheap.
[we did this so anime production companies would] pay the employees(artists) better
I mean, has pay gone up in other fields where AI has taken over a lot of jobs?
In any case, I think the reason pay is awful in anime is the same reason as in gamedev: if people get into it for passion, the companies can pay less and still have employees.
Unless I’m misunderstanding it wrong, any kind of porn would pass the first two prongs of the Miller test: it’s for purient purposes and it has depictions of sexual acts. As for the third prong, I’m sure some porn out there has literary merit, but I would guess the vast, vast majority would not.
Thanks!
I don't think it has? https://lemmy.world/instances lists lemmy.ml under "linked instances", and not under "blocked instances."
I almost never log in to any of these sites (hence my problem with reddit requiring login), it would have been the front page. I will say I haven't gone to lemmy recently, so perhaps it's changed.
OTOH the worst offender [1] is lemmy.ml (run by lemmy's lead dev), and it's still federated and going strong.
What? When sunset is at 5pm you want to lock the elderly up in their homes? What about those that have trouble sleeping, like many do? Or those that wake up before sunrise?
This is the kind of thinking that leads to totally inaccessible cities.
Clicking on a page linked in your article, the PROTECT Act of 2003[1] (passed a year later), I see:
The PROTECT Act includes prohibitions against obscene illustrations depicting child pornography, including computer-generated illustrations, also known as virtual child pornography. Previous provisions outlawing virtual child pornography... had been ruled unconstitutional... The PROTECT ACT attached an obscenity requirement under the Miller test or the variant test noted above to overcome this limitation.
Which, if I'm reading it right, means that GP was correct in saying "conviction of CSAM-related crimes do not require any physical act to have ever occurred to any real person"
Do they actually have net positive income (excluding research, I guess)? I assumed no but I’ve never seen number one way or another.
From the comment that started this deviation:
Wouldn't it be more reasonable to just expect people who want to walk places in the dead of night to wear a headlamp?
Because
1) Humans night vision is significantly worse than your regular vision. Low light would cause more accidents, eg.
2) The elderly have pretty terrible night vision. Your idea would exclude them from half the day.
Yeah lemmy is just too full of tankies for me. I mean, reddit was full of half baked political takes, but at least they didn't spout apologia for North Korea.
Mind sharing the script? I am certainly not logging in just so they can track me better.
I mean, if you're using one of the $200/month plans, you'd recoup the cost in a year or two.
Yeah, their sizzle reel is pretty incredible. I wish they had a hyperlinked version of the credits, so many clips I would want to see the whole source for.
Yeah it was a little tongue-in-cheek--I think the estimate I saw was over $100M for bun, which would have been enough to pay Donald Knuth to rewrite Claude Code, let alone AI.
[People think we] couldn’t possibly know what the consequences would be.
It’s not true, though. We have quite a precise understanding of what happens
Ah, man, the hubris to see a long history of human interventions with unexpected knock on consequences, and think, “but this time we know.” It’s comical, even. We’re talking about an intervention large enough to reverse decades of climate change, of course there will be unintended consequences.
In the end, however, we will likely have to do something, and this might be the solution with the best-mapped consequences (and thus fewest unforeseen consequences).
Can't have been that cheap if they thought buying Bun for an undisclosed amount of money was cheaper.
Some of the esoteric syntax choices are a bit strange; for example, a function with a list argument would be
[[myfunc]](< 2, 3, 4>)
myfunc([2, 3, 4])So for every new SQLite db you want to access would have to run a new untrusted executable? That seems… hilariously bad for security.
I think you can maintain full backward compatibility with all these changes. SQLite has a bunch of meta-data that you can use to see that no earlier editions have modified your database since you last wrote. You make the new editions follow these strict rules, but if an old edition modifies the DB in the interim, you fall back to the original rules, until it’s verified compliant again.
I am a car person. I have a fun-to-drive car that I have modified. This guy is getting all the hate he deserves.
You don't get to be an assh*le and subject everyone to loud exhaust (I looked up his exhaust, it's 105 dB!), and be upset if people call you an assh*le.
Anyone who defends him is essentially saying "it's ok to be an assh*le to everyone around you, as long as you get yours."
Whether they are purposefully inflicting it on others or not, it takes a certain type of inconsiderate person to say "F*ck everyone else and their preferences for intact eardrums and uninterrupted sleep, I like the way it sounds."
Hard disagree. You might be ok with loud engines splitting your eardrums and interrupting your sleep (or worse, your baby's sleep!), but society as a whole should not.
Live and let live is good and all, but GP said it was about "inflicting their taste on others," so I would read that comment to mean the inconsiderate things we should not let live. Loud pipes, unsafe driving, and loud subwoofers--I'll shake my fist at those clouds all day.
I am not disagreeing with that. I am saying that having enough revenue is necessary to keep the house of cards standing.
I disagree, but not for the reason you think. They need to fund R&D to justify their high valuation. A new stock issue would decrease the valuation, and they will have a difficult time borrowing the money with their poor bond valuations. So this will (maybe) slow the bleed.
Musk doesn't need to deliver to keep valuation up. We've seen him doing pretty well stringing people along indefinitely with "3 months maybe, 6 months definitely" self driving capabilities.
stand next to a litter bin, light up and then throw the cigarettes end to the ground.
If the litter bin doesn’t have an ashtray (like most in the US), maybe they were worried about starting a trash fire?
But generally: good luck! I've thought something like this was needed for a while. I've considered building similar things in the past, and always couldn't figure out how to get a critical mass of users. Here's hoping you succeed where I didn't even try.
