  • But to protect newborn babies from the disease, pregnant women can also be offered pertussis vaccines. In England, the BMJ reports, uptake among this group has fallen from over 70 percent in September 2017 to 58 percent in September 2023.

    Sounds like 12% of expectant mothers have had their trust in doctors destroyed by the policies enacted during COVID. That's not COVIDs fault. That's our fault for how we reacted.

  • ls does 90% of this stuff already, so why not just add the options to it?

    looks at readme

    eza: A modern, maintained replacement for ls.

    ls is maintained so what do they mean? "Modern"?

    looks at code tab

    Oh! It's another person thinking the world needs to be written in Rust.

  • 69 MJ is 19.17 kWh. About 86p of electricity at today's wholesale price in the UK (£45/MWh: today is fairly average).

    The research they are doing is great, but there's so much engineering to be done to turn fusion into something practical; something capable of running streams of pulses, not just single ones.

    This was the last experiment for this reactor running it outside of design limits.

  • The trained model is a work derived from masses of copywrite material. Distribution of that model is infringement, same as distributing copies of movies. Public access to that model is infringement, just as a public screening of a movie is.

    People keep thinking it's "the picture the AI drew" that's the issue. They're wrong. It's the "AI" itself.

  • AI is creating an image based on someone else's property. The difference is it's owned by a corporation.

    This isn't the issue. The copyright infringement is the creation of the model using the copywrite work as training data.

    All NYT is doing is demonstrating that the model must have been created using copywrite works, and hence infringement has taken place. They are not stating that the model is committing an infringement itself.

  • They are showing that the author of the tool has comitted massive copyright infringement in the process construction of the tool.

    ...unless they licensed all the copyright works they trained the model on. (Hint: they didn't, and we know they didn't because the copyright holders haven't licensed their work for that purpose. )

    It doesn't matter if a company charges or not for anything. It's not a factor in copyright law.

  • I do use the timer delay to run the wash cycle when the power is cheap. I'd really like it if I could set it as "ready to go" and something else give it the "go" when the power is cheap.

    Once I have that, it's also useful to have something to tell me there's wet washing that needs to be unloaded.

    If my washing machine was older I could do all of this with a remote power switch and sensor, but because my washing machine has touch buttons instead of click/clacks, I can't. Turning the power on just makes it wait for a button press.

  • It would be far better if somebody sold a single VPN device for the mass public to be able to access home devices. Something wireguard based could be so simple for people to use. Even better if your ISP had this as a standard feature which they made easy to setup Then none of these devices would have an excuse to go out to the company's servers. Any that did would be obviously spying and they could be shamed.

  • The choices here are to respect copyright or destroy it. Having and AI exception is nonsense.

    "I'm not illegally downloading the latest blockbuster/ best seller / chart topping album. I'm scraping the internet for training data for my AI. It just so happens I need to filter the data by hand before it can injest it. I keep looking for suitable data, but haven't identified any yet. "

    There's plenty of non copyright material out there to do research on. It won't make for useful AI products, but they can start licensing for that.
