From my understanding, MV3 kills vital features of ad-blockers in that
Wikimedia Foundation (the org behind the Wikipedia and similar projects) does get more donations than their operational cost, but that’s expected. The idea is that they’ll invest the extra fund[1] and some day the return alone will be able to sustain Wikipedia forever.
Although, some have criticized that the actual situation is not clearly conveyed in their asking for donation message. It gives people an impression that Wikipedia is going under if you don’t donate.
Others also criticized that the feature development is slow compared to the funding, or that not enough portion is allocated to the feature development. See how many years it takes to get dark mode! I don’t know how it’s decided or what’s their target, so I can’t really comment on this.
They publish their annual financial auditions[2] and you can have a read if you’re interested. There are some interesting things. For example, in 2022-2023, processing donations actually costs twice as much as internet hosting, which one would expect to be the major expense.
The link to the study is just a “Paid Search Ad” page. Ouch for the professionalism of Forbes.
Well, that already happened for Reagan and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Philip K. Dick’s early novella The Gun describes this, but instead of chat bots, they were auto nuclear weapons.
They tried to build this abomination in London and it got shot down.
Maybe I’m missing something, but shouldn’t the benchmark be a good approximation to the real workload? I don’t see how the measurements reflect the performance difference in real life usages.
Why would I need 100MiB/s processing as opposed to 20MiB/s processing, when I can only read maybe several lines per second?
Basically it’s two people saying “Is it falling? Wouldn’t it explode? I’m recording it. Fuck the rocket is falling!”
From 5-8 seconds, the person seems to be saying争着争着中火大了, which doesn’t mean anything to me, but it may be something of the local dialect.
The Chinese Great Firewall (GFW) has already been using machine learning to detect “illegal” traffics. The arms race is moving towards the Cyberpunk world where AIs are battling against an AI firewall.
After the crush, they shout CR2032.
Have you heard of 996.icu? I don’t know where you get your statistics, but have a walk around 五道口 and you’ll understand.
Also, I don’t know where you see that I’m a fan of CCP. The government is largely responsible for the phenomenon by not prosecuting the companies lol.
I’m not saying that this isn’t a protest, but merely providing the context for the protest. They took the relaxed dress code to an extreme and deliberately interpreted it as “anything you like”. It’s more of a malicious compliance protest. That’s why they were scolded by the leader, instead of being fired.
I’m not saying everything about China is evil, but 996 is an actual thing, actively resented by Chinese young people. I’ve got friends working such schedules. I’m presenting their views. I had also visited their offices and saw the folding beds.
For those who don’t know, it’s not quite new (except for the word that describes it, Ban Wei 班味). Because of the long working time, a lot of Chinese companies (especially in the tech sector) allow very casual dressing, plushies, even folding beds in the office. Sounds good but is actually horrifying.
The sentence meant to be sarcastic. The dry humor was lost in translation.
It’s a one-piece pajama in the video. She has a coat over it during the work.
In some sense yes, but advertising for its own stuff is advertising too. It nudges you to use their whole ecosystem.
The most annoying thing for me is that you can’t remove the iTunes component in mission control (the settings deck).
For true immutability, burn something like tails on a read-only CD.
