Ask HN: Should the word "secret" in a submission generate a warning?

Mon, 11/04/2024 - 8:05pm

There are definitely legitimate uses for saying that an article is about some secret or other, but in keeping with the guidelines, I was wondering if such a notice could guide people to pick a more informative title for their submission. Not a hard reject, just a reminder while typing/pasting

> please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait

For reference, what's being submitted with that word: https://hn.algolia.com/?prefix=false&query=secret&sort=byDate&type=story

Ask HN: Need your help with Albumentations feedback

Mon, 11/04/2024 - 8:00pm

I've spent the last 10 months heads-down in Albumentations code - fixing bugs, improving performance, and adding features that people asked for years.

Now I need your help.

I'd love to chat with you if you:

- Use Albumentations in production - Use in your research - Apply in ML competitions at Kaggle or other platforms - Play with it in your pet projects

Or maybe you're using torchvision, DALI, Kornia, or imgaug instead? I'd love to hear what stops you from moving to Albumentations.

I would like to understand what's working for you and what isn't - whether it's missing functionality, unclear docs, lack of tutorials, or anything else that makes you frustrated.

Your feedback will help me prioritize what to work on next.

Would you be willing to spend a short video call with me?

My email is in my profile.

Your input would mean a lot.

Richard Stallman on the removal of Russian Linux maintainers

Mon, 11/04/2024 - 7:56pm

[[[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider ]]] [[[ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies, ]]] [[[ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example. ]]] Free software calls for giving people the freedom to cooperate. That means a group of people are free to cooperate when they all want to cooperate. But that is not the precise requirement. That is a consequence of the requirements. The precise requirement is that users be free to make and distribute copies of their modified versions as free software. Those Russian have a moral right to distribute copies of their modified versions of Linux. But they have no moral right to demand that the Linux developers use those changes. Whether you use someone else's changes should be up to you. Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
