I was 17 at the time :) And FWIW, the whole joke there was that neither me nor the other guy being interviewed had anything at all to do with the attacks on PSN and XBL.
Yes, I'm sure my comments here are just full of terribly damaging stuff.
Not sure what the theory here is. Am I supposed to worry about the judges stalking me online and reading my HN comments professing innocence?
The prosecutors couldn't, and wouldn't even want to use anything I've written here, especially considering the trial is over and they can't just file new evidence.
(I can't find the 1.1 docs, but they were the same)
It's one of my favourite examples of how languages pretty much always get date and time hopelessly wrong initially. Java now has one of the best temporal APIs.
Yeah, it effectively became a typed wrapper of a long epoch millis value. Generally treated as immutable by convention in my experience, although of course it technically wasn't as the setters were never removed.
It was hopelessly wrong initially, and got even worse when they added the horrible sql Date/Timestamp/etc classes.
With java.time though, it is the gold standard as far as I've seen.
That's the beauty of working with WebDAV, also captured vividly in the above article -- any particular server/client combination feels no obligation to try and act like some "standards" prescribe, or make use of facilities available.
I might be wrong, but when I last mounted webdav from windows, it did the same dumb thing too.
Academic publishing is _notoriously_ profitable. Authorship and the bulk of the editorial process is done by others for free, and these days you often aren't even creating a physical copy. Their overheads are really pretty minimal. What the money (subscriptions and / or APCs) gets is the kudos associated with the publication.
It is reasonable to say: well if they aren't providing anything of value then the market ought to bypass them. The reality is that the publishers have been very canny in protecting their position, and sharp practice is rife.
> Instead of journals getting revenue from subscribers, they charge authors an “Article Processing Charge” (APC)
Just to be clear this is specifically _gold open access_. There are other options like green (author can make article available elsewhere for free) and diamond (gold with no charge).
It sounds like this will include Teesworks, one of the dodgiest land deals of recent years. For a small investment two people essentially held the entire thing to ransom and secured options on an astonishing amount government money.
Less than 100 lines of code to give the overwhelming majority of consumers "LanguageModel is not available." and a free snipe hunt for 0.5% of them to try to figure out how to enable it via chrome flags or snapshot browsers.
Yeah maybe it is overkill but this would be a semi hard computer vision task not too long ago, it is pretty amazing you can get it that easily nowadays
So now marketing is working through the disgruntled-at-stupid-tech HN bait (as someone who works on the built-in AI team)? Or wait, how long have they been doing that?
