I remember a certain TV manufacturer [1] making a system with a separate tuner and monitor, they were able to sell it as a high end product.

Before I flew back home from NYC (a 24-hour+ odyssey), I had my stuff laundered at some shop local to where I was staying. It was pricey for a backpacker, but definitely worth it - it came back so neatly squared off and pressed that it was basically a small brick of laundry and packing was a breeze :)
> For one example - I've spoken with many Catolics who thought it's "not fair" that a serial murderer can escape eternal punishment with last minute atonement, but a women that was in a marriage with abusive husband and then met her "other half" - has to sacrifice her love till death because of 1 unintentional mistake in the past.

I find it very difficult to discuss these things without saying things that religious people might find offensive (questioning too much seems to be frowned upon for some reason), but I'll try:

So they think it's "not fair", yet they still identify with a religion where this is announced to be the case.

So are you saying they think it's not fair but still believe unfortunately that's the way it is, or are you saying that they think that it's actually not true and won't happen?

Or are you saying that they have an internal moral compass that says that such eternal damnation is immoral, but set it aside because of the rules of the religion?

I guess the difference is that they think it's "not fair", and I think it's not true, and clearly nothing but a fairy tale manufactured to pressure people to keep going to church out of fear.

If someone is already doomed with eternal damnation, then why not keep doing bad stuff?

I'm being flippant, but actually with the massive loophole of last minute atonement, why not just do bad stuff all the time, until the last minute? Hopefully you will get time to spit out a quick "sorry" at the end. Is this what all the pedophile priests and their co-conspirators are planning to do?

> it's hard to distinguish external and internal motivation when you have it constantly mixed by the religion, rituals, etc.

True. I think the peer pressure when your community identifies with a particular religion is a large factor as well. If there wasn't so much peer pressure and the threat of shunning and excommunication, there would probably be many less outwardly religious people around.

I cringe when I hear sports stars thanking god, as if with all the misery and suffering in the world, god still puts it as a priority to be personally interested in whether a millionaire manages to win a sports event or not.
Good product, but the copy is terrible.

I use that to get rid of the stuck food and a butterknife to knock off some dangly bits. But a protective layer of carbon is a pretty nice cooking surface, so I don't go overboard cleaning it.
I had a (great) boss in my late 20s who was overjoyed to have me share my offer with him so he could go to bat with the corporate overlords (in another state) and get all the local devs a raise based on market conditions.

I was more than happy to share, but we also already had a relationship where I knew he wasn't out to screw me.
As an owner of a Sony Bravia "smart TV" I'm not surprised to see this. I tried using the features but they were very slow and never seemed to work properly. It was hard enough to keep it connected to my wifi with the $80 wifi dongle I bought. My new Apple TV is so worth the money.

Key word "imminent". They are talking about the near term future. AI risk people are talking about risks in 30+ years or so.

That said, it's typical for even experts to underestimate progress in rapidly advancing fields. No one predicted AI would be so good by now, say 5-10 years ago. Now computers are beating Go and rivaling human vision.
Thanks! Had no idea.
Second. I was fortunate to have the bristle get jammed into my gums avoiding a ER trip. A few minutes of swearing and tweezering later I was fine :)

Stone scrapers are another viable alternative.
I absolutely look negatively on a candidate who has never had a 2-year stint on their resume and has never gotten a promotion with the same company. It's not an absolute bar, but it's a negative signal for sure.

I'm not worried about job-hopping because of ambition that can't be met at a given company, but I am worried about incompetence that takes a while to ferret out and causes job hopping in that 9-18 month window.
The point is that tv manufacturers can still sell all of those features in-the-box, but provide it as a dumb screen + a separate device that's replacable when it becomes obsolete before the screen does.

I think a key competitive feature would be to have their own device integrated better than third-party devices. A usb connection to share commands from the tv's remote, for example. Maybe integrated menus of some sort.

If the add-on device is fairly cheap, and major upgrades require replacement rather than just software, the tv manufacturers could get more upgrade sales than they can get for whole tv upgrades.
> Its big weakness is autofocus speed

In my experience the autofocus speed in daylight is fine and it's especially good at focusing on what you want it to focus on, so it's great for birders. The problem is noise-reduction i.e. image quality. Do a bit of pixel peeping and it begins to look like a watercolor painting.

I was lucky enough to get one the day it was released early last year. Fun toy, and great for travel/sightseeing where you often can't use your feet as a zoom, but not even close to 1" type sensor quality let alone SLR.

Saving my pennies for a Sony RX10 III 24-600mm equiv superzoom, thought it's roughly 3 times the price of the P900. Good review here: https://youtu.be/Ad1JDfmyNxI

You are correct on the definition of fairness, and no system is perfect. But at the same time, it doesn't mean that the pay scales are unfair. I think it encourages folks to be upfront about how they determine payrates, raises, and bonuses. However, the things you describe are more things left up to the employer - and the even-out payscales are in place especially in factories and other such professions. Not necessarily fair, but at least some of those jobs are more difficult to differentiate concrete pay systems as well.

In my opinion, such systems mean one needs to be able to back up the claim that the superstar is superior. Salespersons are easier to measure in this sense, especially if they make commissions. Developers? Simply have standards and be upfront about how said standards affect pay, and apply those. Measurable experience, results, error rate, speed, or whatever measures you have.
That the entire organized affair -- the chaos of Waluigi notwithstanding -- takes a back seat to the foundation of rooted plants in the foreground suggests that the apparent social structure on offer, a hierarchical and linear assemblage, is finally an illusion; we cannot overcome the complex and rhizomatic nature of reality.
It is more costly, but this is a good reason to use a dedicated chunk of memory for every Xen PV domU. No oversubscription!

Allowing multiple domU VMs on the same dom0 (or the equivalent in other hypervisor platforms) to re-use memory and balloon/contract memory on the fly is what enables this.
Chromecast doesn't have to be a literal Chromecast. It just has to be some kind of dongle that uses a standard interface (e.g. HDMI, and maybe USB for remote command handling), and can be upgraded on its own.

Of course, the TV manufacturers don't want to do that, because they profit when you have to upgrade the entire TV.
Can creativity be learned? I feel like I've been cursed with a stellar memory, which people often perceive as intelligence, but I see lots of my coworkers come up with great ideas for new tools and processes that enhance our core business. Some of them even seem obvious after the fact (not that it discredits them at all), but I seem to lack the creativity and confidence to build anything on my own. Do you think this class would help?
I did this a few months back and replaced it with a "cool cleaning" nylon-based one after I started noticing the extremely tiny metal bristles falling onto my grill. My wife said I was crazy -- today I feel vindicated.

Not if you actually work in the VM, and do not expose database ports to the host (why in hell would you do this anyway). No amount of ip scanning is going to open ports.

> Those corporations that are violating the license aren't contributing back to Linux anyway; so losing them won't kill Linux.

I don't think that's what the grandparent was worried about. If the kernel developers defend the GPL too ardently, some companies that currently contribute, or that are considering contribution, may be worried about violating the license and decide that it's in their best interests to avoid Linux altogether. I agree that it wouldn't actually kill Linux, but it could potentially do more harm than good by scaring away potential contributors that are a little more on the fence.
Are you thinking about grey goo?

The paperclip maximizer generally refers to a AGI with a value system that is not aligned with humans. An AGI smart enough to achieve its goals (making paperclips) so efficiently that it becomes a threat to humans through sheer resource consumption.

So it's not a good example of dumb-tiger-AIs occasionally becoming a threat to humans, which still on average are able to outcompete a tiger with ease.
How many people can afford to spend that much every couple of years on a new tv? I'd bet most tvs in most us homes are 5-15 years old. My tv, which happens to be a bravia, is 13 years old and still works perfectly.

EDIT: for what it's worth, my tv is predates smart tvs by a year or two. I use an old Tivo with a lifetime service plan and a roku (3rd gen I think, upgraded once) for the smarts.
You can do the same style of programming using the ClojureScript libraries reagent/posh/re-frame/datascript. Why not just use those?

It isn't clear to me what Eve offers that those don't.
From what I can gather on you page, you are offering a service that reads an article for a person then gives them a brief summary.

This landing page is too busy with the animated backgrounds as you scroll.

From my short look, I think you will have a hard time finding that person who has no time to read an article and instead wants to outsource that to you. You would do better if instead of having a human summarize the articles, utilize one of the many NLP Summarizers out there (they aren't great but they scale). More about that here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_summarization

You can charge users for credits, then base how much an article costs on its length.

For a product like this it is always best to hide the true cost behind credits, then charge tiered prices for the credits.

Buy 100 credits for $7 or 1000 for $25, etc.

You will then want to explain WHY the person NEEDS this, and probably in autoplaying animated video with a professional voice over actor reading a script that is also close captioned in the video (test the autoplay though. some audiences convert like crazy on it, others bounce).

Then have 3 product offerings, NLP, Human Written and a Voice Mail type MP3 recording of the summary.

Most people will go for the NLP, but some will pay for written, and you can out source that to various crowd sourcing platforms for about $1. For the voice mail you will probably have to pay $1 for the summary then $3 for a person to read it.

Credits should be purchased on a subscription plan for a discount over the one-time purchases, and you should offer a few sample outputs and get testimonials from people.

That should get you started! If you have any other questions, let me know.
This is roughly EAV. EAV is where you have a with a schema:

entity_id | attribute_id | value

EAV is typically considered to be an anti-pattern for several reasons: it becomes very expensive to rematerialize a entity with all of its attributes/values, it becomes difficult to have any kind of constraints on the values (this is also a problem with jsonb), and it's hard for the database to maintain good statistics on the values of different attributes as most databases don't keep multi-column statistics. Don't worry, I've had similar ideas before.
Why did you shut down your Vancouver office?

I heard your company's founder is a UBC grad.
yc is founder friendly. As such those yc companies should be employee friendly. Do that and do right by your employees and the sky is the limit.
Otherwise, if you have fatty meat, you just use a strip of fat in the same way. That's what I do, and I happen to be Argentinian :)
I would expect that to perform poorly at scale.

There is also a fifth option, though it is not very space efficient. That is to store every field in the JSONB column. Personally, that is what I would do.

This approach is known to be used successfully by many high scale companies. It ensures the highest degree of flexibility and still allows for full indexing of the fields. The schema would need to be enforced by your application, but that should happen anyway.
That and the CBC has always had a nationalistic-liberal slant.

Gets especially sickening when we are involved in minor international politics or troop deployment. Canada this, Canada that. I still hear people chirping about the damn CanadaArm.

Nice to see that the payload didn't start to topple until around 6s after the blast. Gives hope of the launch abort system having time to do its job had this been a manned launch.

They don't want to do it because the consumer would not accept it as a solution because the minute that their competitor ditches that dongle and puts those features internally they have the "advantage".

Sunny sells you dongles that take a port, buy symsyng and have all your ports for other devices.

If you are an advanced enough user that you can use a streamer/dongle/set top box or w/e it doesn't matter what the TV has as long as it comes with display input ports.

For the majority of the shopping channel BIG BOX mart consumers this isn't really an option and they want one box that does everything even if it's not the most optimal solution.

What you are asking for is simply something that the TV maker has no reason or interest to do not because they are greedy but because they don't want to deal with that.
They aren't stopping you from buying whatever dongle you want so what exactly is the complaint? The majority of the cost of the TV is still the tuner, panel, and LED and optical assembly the 11$ SoC they use for the smart features won't make the TV's cheaper.
If somehow removing those features would allow them to focus on more important things I would understand but in reality it doesn't add up to much if anything.
