  • If someone wants to collab, I've been writing various codes around it: https://gitlab.com/bss03/grtt

    Right now, it's a bunch of crap. But, it's published, and I occasionally try to improve it.

    Also, Granule and Gerty are actual working implementations, tho I think some of the "magic" is in the right grading ring for the runtime, and they and more research oriented, allowing for fairly arbitrary grading rings.

  • On my 45th, instead of a colonoscopy, my Dr. had me do the "Cologuard" stuff. Insurance covered that. I turn 46 this year.

  • Android and desktop. I'm no UX designer, so I don't know what the ideal is, but when I'm using the software with a purpose, anything that gets in the way of that purpose is (at best) an annoyance. I'm probably wrong, but I think I'd prefer a passive notification to verify pin / donate / whatever that triggers after/as I leave Signal for something else -- a indicator I'm done with my purpose (albeit flawed; maybe I just need to copy info from FF or whatever.)

  • The whole industry needs rebuilt from the foundations. GRTT with a grading ring that tightly controls resources (including, but not limited to RAM) as the fundamental calculus, instead of whatever JS happens to stick to the Chome codebase and machine codes spewed by your favorite C compiler.

  • I agree with all your points, BUT I do think Signal could be slightly less "user-hostile" with the reminders, maybe?

    I get annoyed at the pop-ups in my Linux system, too, and all of them are got similarly legitimate reasons. Getting the way of my current task (or worse stealing focus) doesn't ever seem like the "right" way for computers/tools to behave.

  • Proton has the disadvantage of having to work with other email services as well, so there's protocol limitations. When mailing from one Proton mailbox to another, they do intentionally avoid SMTP for this reason, but Signal has the advantage of "owning" the whole protocol, too.

    I imagine if you donate with a CC to Signal, they might also be forced to turn that over. The weakness is not in Signal or Proton, but in the Visa/Mastercard duopoly and CC processing in general. Cryptocurrency has some advantages here, but they are outweighed by the abuse, fraud, speculation, and general dishonestly (and just general failure to be good currencies for "normal" purchases.)

  • I'd imagine there have been more nonsensical (than AI = public domain) legal decisions that have had the full force of law for decades.

    I recently dug around for a while, and if the copyright of works in the training data affects the copyright of outputs, no popular model can output anything that would even be close to acceptable for a contribution to an open-source project. Maybe if you trained a model exclusively on "The Stack" (NOT "The Pile") and then included all the required attributions -- but no ready-made model does that. All of the "open source" model frameworks that I could find included some amount of proprietary "pre-training" data that would also be an issue.

    If AI output is NOT affected by the copyright of training data... there might not BE a (legal) person that can hold any copyrights over it, which is pretty close to public domain.

  • OP is a manic pixi dream something.

  • I saw it 3 times opening weekend.

  • I like you, weirdo.

  • This deserves every upvote the top-level post got.

  • Neither vim nor neovim are safe! (I hear emacs is fine, but who really knows all the people that provided contributions to the pile of elisp they call their emacs.)

  • Oh yes

  • I think this is one reason I'm frequently labeled a reply-guy.

  • Aged like fine gatorwine.

  • I was a professional, and I didn't have a backup of my personal system for about 2 decades. I just didn't have another 4TiB of storage to copy my media library onto. I'm now on backblaze, but there was a long time there when I did not have a backup even tho I knew better.

    Also, even in a professional setting, I've seen plenty of "production support" systems that didn't have a backup because they grew ad-hoc, weren't the "core business", and no one both recognized and spoke up about how important they were until after some outage. There's virtually never a test-restore schedule with such systems, so the backups are always somewhat suspect anyway.

    It's very easy to find you (or your organization) without a backup, even if you "know better".

  • /s ?

  • Yes, you can get the 100% juice label by taking (e.g.) cranberry concentrate and the reconstituting using (e.g.) apple juice instead of water, adding calories and sweetness without adding a (non-juice) sweetener.

    On top of that, most of the juice aisle does not even qualify for the "100% juice" label.

    Gotta read the fine print on the label AND the government labeling regulations AND have some level of trust in the government to get what you want from a mass-market product. Local products and producers are not a panacea either.

    But, I'm going to overdose on ACE-K given the amount of Zero Sugar Mtn. Dew I think, so I'm not going to shame anyone for their favorite juice, whether it is "100% juice" or not, from concentrate or not, or whatever.
