I would say that it depends. I know that Dr. House once caught a girl who had a condition where she wanted to get doctor's attention and he did some really bold move with this hunch.

Dr. House moves on his hunch and he (usually?) turns out to be right. Though most of it is focused on the diagnosis of disease.

It's unclear if they cross paths or not and if House is invested in catching Dexter, if House wants Dexter to be caught.

I do feel like though if Dr. House is somehow invested in catching Dexter. He might be able to do that.

A much more interesting question could also be how Patrick Jane from Mentalist could catch Dexter?

I recommend watching this video if this topic interests you (although I haven't watched it myself and I am going to do it just now): How Long Would It Take Patrick Jane To Catch Dexter?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJB8agSrx-8

I think this was a fun Ask HN and I was actually reading it on the phone and I opened my laptop just to answer it because it caught my attention. I love dexter, its just such a great show in my opinion :-)

Edit: after watching this video I got recommended the video by the same creator about Dr House catching Dexter so highly recommended and this is what the question is about, gonna watch this now.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaUqLFWn2ng

(Also regarding TV shows, I have to complete last two seasons of mentalist and watch silicon valley as well. I think that I have got a lot of TV shows to watch haha. what are the TV shows that you are currently watching or are intending to do so?)

I actually used to install Revanced for all the relatives who ever complained about Youtube and some who didn't even ask! I just feel like Ad blocker is such a useful thing that I can do to people that I care about who don't know deeply about it.

I must say that it is one of the top entries of lists of most useful/time-saving things I have done in actually saving anybody's actual time.

I express gratitude towards the universe for Ublock Origin. Words can't comprehend how much I love it.

The only thing that I know is that I know nothing but I will like to respectfully present my points

Couldn't the same arguments that you used could be used, for say, phone addiction and so many other under-focused addictions as well.

There is more nuance to it that I'd like to explore:

Is the dependency of anything whether good or bad not something worth discussing more deeply into. Could it perhaps also say just a few things about our society that workers feel so overworked that they have to resort to using coffee in order to tolerate the amount of work?

I don't drink coffee personally, do I get cranky? Of course but I don't attribute that crankiness to my lack of coffee. Life has its ups and downs but suppose a down comes just after you wanted to quit coffee, you might attribute your responses to how you stopped drinking coffee, you would feel like coffee was helping you and now you stopped it and you are missing out on something. You must again use coffee!

My main point is: How much is coffee really helping you and how much is the fear of absence of coffee as if you are losing out on something so precious and that many can't live their life without it when in reality many people live just fine without drinking coffee as well and all the ways our minds folds our thinking into wanting it again. just one more time, trust me bro. Today I had a lot of work from my boss or I feel so stressed, nothing like a cup of coffee. Just one more time.

I feel as if the excuse can work in our minds because at that point, our minds are tired, it just wants to fix itself and we don't think too rationally about it. You might even think what's the harm? but the harms is that the cycle continues and I will try to list some of the harms in the end of the comment from another HN commenter (@bossyTeacher) who puts it better than I can :-)

- High heart rate and blood pressure

- Increased risk of arrhtymia

- Less deep sleep

- Disruption to your cortisol level dynamics

(I have shared some negative effects of it, also if coffee impacts your sleep, one has to wonder that there are people willing to pay thousands of dollars to improve their sleep, the question seems to me how much do you think your deep sleep is worth over the long term?)

As such, I believe that there's more nuance to the whole thing.

To me, my personal opinion is that I don't want my self control resource to focus on the task of coffee consumption and keeping it in check. I sometimes drink soft drinks like diet coke just because I would have some friction (which well online shopping is actually ironically* making it less when I would want the friction to be more actually but still!), I know that with coffee, I might not be able to resist the temptation of having coffee at home and then drinking it a bit too much. It happens to the best of us, It's alright but something worth thinking about.

Self control is like a resource in terms of how precious it is, you have a finite amount of self control (IMO). As such, I would like to just not think about coffee so much in life and live my life :-)

(I think I might prefer less diet coke as well and to get to lemonade and other natural drinks actually, personally I like lemonade as well but even the mere friction of 2 minutes making one has sometimes made me stop as I feel like its a task. I am thinking if I really must, someday I would try to make Lemonade in huge container and just drink from it throughout the day.)

If you are asking in good faith (which I hope you do because its HN and we are curious people, aren't we!), I recommend looking at r/decaf for seeing people's experience that they are sharing regarding it.

Also upvoting @bossyTeacher comments and re-sharing the good points that they have made:

- High heart rate and blood pressure

- Increased risk of arrhtymia

- Less deep sleep

- Disruption to your cortisol level dynamics

For example, Python and Typescript have the most amount of codebases and training being done on. So I feel as if that plays a part into the overall thing.

Languages which are more niche have genuinely hard times (Try arturo lang for example), so it depends on a lot of things/nuance, or well that has been my experience trying something recently.

My personal opinion is that if each language has the same amount of training. Golang comes close but the first might be Elixir. I have seen Elixir language perform really well with LLM's with magnitudes less training dataset. There have been some studies which had Elixir as the number one language for such tests iirc.

Gleam is a new addition as well and I feel as if it could be good and its another interesting option as well with more type-safety and an interesting language overall.

That being said, the shipping container idea is decent but the bottleneck is still power not so much cooling, so unless someone figures out a way to have an actual nuclear power reactor, there are issues.

Also oh the issue isn't that there aren't nuclear power reactors but that they aren't large enough. Some nuclear powered datacenters exist in some experimental settngs but these new Datacenters are trying to take a magnitude more and they can't wait for the production of those things and further research.

Also regulation and tax by being offshore have much easier ways to be bypassed and which are already being done effectively so by utilizing already existing legal structures and jurisdictions I think.

As many countries are now trying to suggest, bring your own power and we are happy.

So in that sense, Nuclear? sure, already being tried but not fast or big enough right now.

Sea? I don't think so. You literally get into murky waters on the future of the project and this part feels really hype based, atleast to me.

Perhaps some people feel that Sea could cool things off but in my understanding, if you already have nuclear, it would be better building Datacenters in colder stranded regions then to have really effective temperature/natural cooling.

Power is the core issue, Everything else is bolted on top of it in my opinion.

Also, how does it compare to say, accepting gold or treating a gold based ledger instead treating gold as a currency and similar ideas?

Also could this re-classification be ever useful too? For examples bonds being treated in such way?

on the other hand a static cross platform single binary Postgres binary doesn't really have any performance hit.

(anecdotally, Personally I would be interested for something like this existing and maybe even integrating it with golang embed. Some of my apps are full stack golang with sqlite backend all baked into a single static binary which I can run and be cross-compiled but I would like to have the same level of flexibility but with postgres as well hopefully)

Basically, search engines are publicly scrapable, though I do wonder as from a law point of view, that it must be within the murky waters as to what a search engine means in terms of seperating its search engine code/its recomendation engine and the public data much of which are intertwined with each other.

I believe that the argument that could be made is that the recommendation engine is the way it is because of all the data and its unseperable to really copyright the whole mechanism in all its glory.

Speaking of which, it seems that AI models feel really similar. Does this judge lawsuit show that AI model weights aren't copyrightable as well? If a search engine is built on public indexes then so are the AI models. I was just writing similar comment on another thread but it seems to be the case, definitely worth a blog article or thinking more about perhaps this judgement by this judge itself in general as well, I just have a vibe that this judgement has pretty far reaching consequences in its impact.

So the mere knowing of it led them to lose it and Napster died because of that but also the actual nail in the coffin was that they couldn't significantly do anything to the problem about that given its P2P nature, Ipods were around the same time and RIAA was a bit afraid of that too but Steve jobs assured them that because of the walled garden they could better control the piracy issue and have proper ways of countering it.

Now aside from the interesting details of that time I showed, coming to my main point, Lawsuits can sometimes happen for lesser reasons than or just limited to plain and simple license violations and if a company is earning 20 Million dollars supposing so, then they might also have a really good lawyer insurance package and could lawyer up just as well.

The core argument lies on proving if AI weights are copyrightable or not from my understanding because the licenses could be best applied under copyright material not public domain materials and the other discussion[0] by @cosmojg shows the most likely cases of AI not being copyrightable?, so you would have to prove if AI is copyrightable or not.

Now that would be a fun lawsuit to watch though.

As such as they have mentioned in the argument, their argument is sound in terms of the level of human involvement in creation of the artifact.
