According to HN, these new models are so powerful that the code writes itself, and bugs are easily detected and fixed.
But then you have major libraries like pic related LibXML2 that are going under- or unmaintained.

I agree that banning public prayer is kinda retarded when you could just ban jews, muslims and hindus instead, they don't belong in the country anyway

Islam is incompatible with western values and every single muslim represents a sleeper agent that will cut your head off if the propper circumstances happen. Every country where muslims have gained significant influence demonstrate this. You talk about being honest with dialog and then you pull this shit.

>Before... What? Precisely?

the right to privacy is enshrined in the bill of rights. It was only within the context of the digital age that the government was able to get public support for the eroding of it. First to combat illegal pornographic content, and later to fight terrorism. Then someone realized they could just get corporations to violate the constitutional restricts since they technically didnt apply to corporations due to semetic magic and its been all down hill since then.

Heres an example of how things have changed: Did you know, one of the major reasons people didnt want to give up windows XP and switch to newer versions such as Win7 was because win7 did the horribly invasive thing of... phoning home one time to microsoft to verify that you had a registered version of windows? People considered that a huge violation of your privacy since it was involuntary and they felt offended that microsoft was no longer going to trust them to just type in a valid CD Key. Now 15 years later and windows 11 actively phones home every day. It spies on everything you do, reports you to the government, and will actively delete files from your computer if microsoft deems them unnecesary.

I'm having a hell of a time installing drivers for some antique controller cards for some industrial machines on some antique computers. One one machine the drivers don't automatically install (and if manually installed the application acts as if they didn't) , on the other, drivers install but the application acts as if they didn't.
I know you won't have a complete solution, but I'm just trying to narrow down what could be going wrong. We can't wait months for them to build us a new controller.
Could the Windows XP service pack and specific collection of updates be affecting something like that?
Could installing the wrong motherboard (or chipset) drivers cause either error? I'm really confident that I haven't done this because I can still get them off the manufacturer's website (they're freaking dells), but management has jumped to this conclusion and won't be talked out of it, insisting on trying to buy two new (old) XP computers as if we're just going to magically get the "insert cd, run installer, and it'll jest werks" experience we deserve instead of continuing to struggle.

I kept getting ones that didn't have unique dot counts. I'd get 3 pairs, or 2 pairs and a triplet with the occasional pair and triplet mixed in. I thought it had to do with the positioning because the only time I was getting stuff "correct" was when I was finding ones that didn't have a dot in the same spot, but then that stopped working after I got 7 in a row, so I guess I just got lucky.

>>107589802
I'm still getting ones that don't have unique dot counts occasionally. I'd probably still be lost if I didn't check in on this thread. Still have to reroll because of the dots, but at least I know it's just fucked and there isn't some secret pattern with the average color of the background the dots are touching or something equally asinine.

the annoying thing is that it says "find the image not like the others" and instead of having 4 identical ones with 1 odd one out they have 2 identical pairs with 1 unique one. so you have to scroll through all of them instead of immediately identifying the weird one after looking through 3

I had an idea for an electronic lock which uses metal key cards that have a card sized label/mask, specifically with hole patterns punched out, and the cards come in complementary pairs: a Key card and a Program card.

The idea here is the cards close circuits to gate pins on transistors in a signal line. Each card has a (say) 5x5 block where holes exist in the label/mask to permit electric contact. Each pair of cards are the XOR of each other (except center which is the common +V to the card). If even one wrong contact is active, the corresponding Program card side gate pin will be brought low and break the signal transistor chain. Any missing contact and no complete chain.

Should almost be home brewable!

Using NFC would be more safer than having a pattern printed in the key card.

>>107598021
>The card slots will have a square grid array of touch contacts like bank card terminals.
I was to understand, unlike the chip on the bank card, your card is just a single conductor... The array in your setup is just about keeping power from pins?
In which case that mask - and damage to, over time - will become a factor. Especially with home-printed materials.

> Diagram is for 2x2, real thing would be 5x5.
Explains why there's not enough for a 5x5 grid.
>>
>>107598141
You will see the rub damage accumulate. You can print a new mask on label paper from Kinkos, punch out the holes, cut the label, then apply new label to card. Point is to delete Mr. Shekelsberg-Manufacturergee and his proprietary wares from the keying equation.

You'd be 'better' avoiding electronics altogether here.
But my point in mentioning the damages was for the times when you're already out of the house when this occurs. Assuming this is door entry to building.
If this can lock you outta house, really wise to consider failure modes.

>>107598164
"universal machine"?
depending on what you mean by 'firmware' that might be a solvable problem. As for the radio, that's easily buildable... It's just cheaper, smaller and easier to buy.
But I wouldn't advise NFC. Can have people picking that lock from ½ way down the street...

in fact the bug bounty programs are incredibly cheap you get the best of best hacking your stuff and submitting fixes for few thousands which for big companies might as well be pennies
like remember they're paying h1b jeets hundreds of thousands per year to pretend to be working or vibecode some retarded broken shit because the big companies have been turned into h1b scam pipelines where jeet HRs recruit their own from india and get kickbacks from the salary, they're looting the companies for millions and millions in salaries

meanwhile some actually mega skilled coder from eastern europ doesnt get paid any salary but only for results and he gets paid few thousand per some critical bug and does more for the company than 10 salaried jeets do for fraction the price
>>
>>107595503
well no shit dumbass. GPL is based on the correct principle that NOT distributing the source along with the binary requires either social or technical hacks or both that do not need to be tolerated. GPL assumes no distinction between source and binary except possible user convenience and distribution pattern. there is no technical difference, they are both "the software" so they by all reason should both be distributed to anyone the software is available to.

NOTHING in GPL prevents you from closed betas, only collabing with a small group, only releasing to a small group of users. and says nothing about keeping secrets. you can keep all the secrets you want. but to whomever you give the software out, DO NOT use slimy tricks against them to restrict their access to only a side-effect of your code (compiled binary). you are doing them a disservice.

I might be an idiot and I don't know why.
I just spent a good while making a bash script to compare two video files to see which one is better quality.
Pretty simple right? Just use ffmpeg to measure PSNR or SSIM or VMAF.
Well for some reason I decided fuck that I'll do it my own ass backwards way.
My way consists of extracting individual frames from each video at specified timestamps (let's say every 10% of the duration) and then comparing each one using imagemagick to compare with rmse and generate a report with the score for each compared frame and a final average score across all extracted frames. If the current frames have a large discrepancy in their scores it creates an A/B image for manual inspection. If the average scores is good the report says keep the new version, otherwise keep the old.

What the fuck was my problem?
Why didn't I just use the normal methods?
I knew about VMAF etc beforehand but I didn't use it.
There was a reason and I can't remember at all why.
Anyone here know their shit about ffmpeg and imagemagick who can shed some light on why I wouldn't have used ffmpeg and whether or not my method is a complete waste of time that doesn't produce useful data?
