  • They were doing the same on other repos for months.
    Both their npm module and android client.
    On android they tried to get people to add their own fdroid repo because the official fdroid has not had updates for 3 months due to the license changes.

    Edit: Looking at it now compared to 4 days ago, they apparently got frdoid to remove bitwarden entirely from the repo. To me this looks like they are sweeping it under the rug, hiding the change pretending it has always been on their own repo they control.

    Next time they try this the mobile app won’t run into issues, the exact issues that this time raised awareness and caused the outcry on the desktop app, which similarly is present in repos with license requirements.

    If they were giving up on their plan, wouldn’t they “fix” the android license issue and resume updating fdroid, instead of burning all bridges and dropping it from the repo entirely, still pushing their own ustom repo? Where is the npm license revert?



  • It means previous versions remain open, but ownership trumps any license restrictions.
    They don’t license the code to themselves, they just have it. And if they want to close source it they can.

    GPLv3 and copyleft only work to protect against non-owners doing that. CLA means a project is not strongly open source, the company doing that CLA can rugpull at any time.

    The fact a project even has a CLA should be extremely suspect, because this is exactly what you would use that for. To ensure you can harvest contributions and none of those contributers will stand in your way when you later burn the bridges and enshittify.

    Just fine is pushing it, we are capable but not particularly good.
    We need specific plant parts grown on purpose to be consumable (fruit, nuts, …), or we need cooking.
    There is a good number of plant stuff like grass, certain bark, and most parts of medium sized plants which a lot of animals can consume but we cannot.
    If you go out and eat random plants you will die you won’t be able to digest almost any of that.

    I would argue there are loosely two levels of plant digestion ability above ours.
    The first being what most mamals have, which allows to consume leafs and most small and medium plants minus the thicker stalks. My example would be deer.
    Then there are ruminants who can digest grass more efficiently and tend to deal with stalks better, main difference being more things being worth digesting vs. just being digestible. Classic example is cows.

    My guess for the injury rates is you expect drywall, thus your body allows you the speed and force you can take on drywall, but then you hit something harder like a metal strut.
    If you already expected something of similar hardness you could never use that much force.


  • In Europe you learn to respect walls at a very young age.
    You don’t deliberately kick a table leg with your toes either, you just know with certainty it will only give you pain.

    Drywalls have some cushioning to them, they first compress then flex.
    Brick is completely solid, it hurts even at very low speeds when hit with bone. Just knocking on it is painful.

    Go outside, pick a nice flat pavement stone, put two sheets of paper over it. Now use your knuckles and knock around on it for a bit, then see what your instincts tell you when you think about punching that.






  • Yeah. You want to preserve the AI’s abilities. Hence adding the “paste imagination” feature for example. If you simply use that and finish “editing” that is current AI. Then you can quickly redo only sections from imagination until they look good, maybe with a specific prompt or other form of understanding about what needs to be done and changed there.

    We can invert our visual center, so basically we see an image, think about it, then can summon a mental version of that painting back as an image by converting the abstraction of it and change things about the abstraction until the mental image seems good. This abstraction can handle ideas like recognizing, moving, scaling, recoloring objects. It can do all we can imagine because it is literally how we interpret the world. Then we spend hours trying to paint that mental image we created using limited tools. If we could just project something the same way we see, that would probably match image-AI in the initial output but after tens, hundreds of passes you could likely within minutes create something completely impossible by any other means.


  • If you feel like you can think clearly and are questioning if you are dreaming but are unsure, you are not.
    All methods of lucid dreaming aim at making you think clearly and question if you are in a dream. With that thought, it should be quite obvious to confirm you are in fact in a dream. Dreams are really not that good, sleeping is just kinda like a heavy suspension of disbelief.


  • Yeah. It is not like you can perfectly recreate them, but as long as you don’t see a problem with whatever your brain fabricates it’s not gonna do anything.

    What I used to do was try to breath through my nose. That is a different mechanism, where probably for safety your body doesn’t “disconnect” your breathing. If you hold your nose shut, you will still be able to breathe in a dream.
    It is something you can easily make a habit, as just quickly pinching your nose doesn’t look weird, and then you will naturally do it in your sleep too and become lucid.

    All you really need is a moment of doubt, and if you have experienced a few dreams you will always be able to tell if you are dreaming or awake at a thought, at least in my experience.

    I have stopped lucid dreaming a while ago, but I think I am still always aware when I sleep based just off of how I sleep. Ever since then it feels more like I am just going along with my dreams most of the time, and occasionally I just decide a nightmare sucks too bad and change it or wake myself up.

    You know, thinking about it, I doubt this is a coincidence.

    The finger-counting is familiar to me as a technique for lucid dreaming. If you look at your hands in a dream, your brain will kinda fuck it up, so if you train yourself to pay attention to that you realize you are dreaming and become lucid.

    My guess is that the origin of fae is something like sleep paralysis deamons or hallucinations, and people realized they could detect those from the same flaws of our own imagination.

    Now for AI, it isn’t really drawing. What we are using in image-AI is still much more like projecting up a mental image, dreaming. We can’t get it right all at once either, even our human brain is not good enough at it, it is reasonable image-AI makes the same kind of mistakes.

    The next step would logically be to emulate the drawing process. You need to imagine up an image, then observe it at large, check for inconsistencies using reasoning and visual intuition.
    Hone in on any problems, stuff that doesn’t look right or doesn’t make sense. Lines not straight.
    Then start reimagining those sections, applying learned techniques and strategies, painter stuff (I am not an artist).
    Loosely I imagine the ai operating a digital drawing program with a lot of extra unusual tools like paste imagination or telepathic select, or morph from mind.

    The main thing differentiating dreaming from painting is that for painting you can “write stuff down” and don’t have to keep it all in your head all the time. This allows you to iterate and focus in without loosing all the detail everywhere else.
