Right, that tool makes gibberish and didn't understand much of anything.

AI research actually started by focusing on symbolic AI but eventually it was found to be too difficult to define all of the symbols. See the Cyc project.

AGI as a field aside from narrow AI/narrow ML has been making useful but not mind-blowing progress for decades. The sidebar and recent posts/post history on Reddit r/agi has useful links for learning about the field. Also more and more posts on r/machinelearning are providing more general purpose tools that address some problems like better semantic understanding.

There is a promising strain of research that is focusing on core AGI requirements. One of the big challenges is bridging the gap between low level sensory information and high level concepts. This is known as the symbol grounding problem. In my mind the approaches tackling that type of challenge have a lot of promise. And the amount of research in that area is growing.
I've read a lot of the comments, and I don't think "relentlessly attacked" is the phrase I'd use. _Some_ folks were fairly uncharitable, but most from what I saw were flummoxed by the fact that they were mislead, and (rightfully IMO) pointed that out.

Believe it or not, the combination of being blatantly mislead, open source and lots of attention on HN sites and the like, doesn't actually happen that often from what I can see. So I guess it's "strange" in the sense that's it's rare, but it totally makes sense to me.

As I said, it's one thing to promise something and fail to deliver. It's another to state something as if it were true, when it's actually not.

Also, clickbait titles are not even remotely in the same category as what the V author did. It's generally socially acceptable to take a creative license with titles. It's not acceptable to take creative license with precise claims about a technical project. And frankly, people (annoyingly) whine about clickbait titles all the time.

At 12km/h it requires 5.59KW of sun energy to fall on the car (in total, not per sq meter as in original comment).

Actual figure given on website is 5m2 of panels on car. Assume 1Kw per m2 of sun power (near equator, no cloud, midday) @ 22% conversion efficiency gives 1.1kw electrical output from panels.

So one needs 5.59KW sun power input for 1.1kw output.

You want to let students' aspirations guide jobs, rather than what companies need? That seems really unlikely to work out well for the society.

Society needs companies that can actually produce stuff that people need and want, worse than they need companies that create jobs that fulfill everyone's aspirations.

No one is talking about the other companies. Here is a hot take: companies which are currently selling insulin are ripping people off. People are suffering as a result.

Whether or not other companies could conceivably produce insulin is irrelevant. The parent commenter and I are talking about the current producers’ shitty behavior. If someone falls out of a tree because I easily could have but chose not to grab them, that is wrong. Other people could have possibly helped and didn’t, but that doesn’t make my shitty behavior any less shitty.

I glad we can agree on the impact of corporate greed, though.

I think that what is misleading is to say that what is not BTC is not bitcoin.
Also misleading is to call the metanet or bottle "DNS in the blockchain" and to try to make a broken syllogism using a post by Satoshi, pushing people to think that satoshi would be against bottle or metanet.

It's interesting how enforcement changes between countries. For instance, all the fines in Austria where for CCTV and dashcam use, all of France's fines were against large corporations, and the single fine Italy imposed was on the "Movimento 5 Stelle" political party.

The program doesn't require you to be a transfer student. You actually get a HS and AS/AE degree at the same time. So you have the option to be a transfer student but you also have the option to go through the normal application process and have your credits treated as HS classes.

All that said, it is probably still more likely to hurt you on an application to some programs. Now they've got to compare apples to oranges rather than an easy AP student to another AP student.

I did the program and got into most of the schools I wanted to but missed out on one that I really wanted. I saved myself 1 years worth of college, and could have saved more if I'd planned a little better (taken engineering physics instead of normal physics) and a few more classes that would have transferred directly. Overall I saved about 2x on credits as much some of the AP students, which would have been 3x if I'd known better.
>> No government is going to let FB and any coalition do an end run around their national currency and their banking institutions.

1. I can see the US government and perhaps the Five Eyes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Eyes) wanting this because it effectively reveals lots of global transactions they are not currently privy to w/o tedious work. I find it difficult to believe that all the relevant FiveEyes agencies have not been an integral part of this from the planning stage.

2. I dont see how small nations can really stop it. They can stop transfers to/from their own currency, but can they really stop closed loop Libra systems? For example, someone in Whateveristan does some work on E-Lance/Upwork and gets paid 100 Libra. They spend 100 Libra on goods online and gets it delivered -- how could the local government stop this?
But in this age who doesn't have a "controversial opinion"? No doubt something you think will be construed as controversial by someone.

My first love is guitar, and I've been playing it (badly;) for decades. But I've just discovered synthesizers, got increasingly hyper excited, and it seems I can really really nerd out about them.
Historically on the electronic side I've enjoyed Depeche Mode, some Daft Punk, and a mix & variety of other stuff; but I've just found synthwave, such as Kavinsky, and am somewhat in love:). I've been geeking out for a few weeks, love the deep warbles and hard tones of the bass monophonic analogues, piercing leads of some others, and the rich pads of some of the digital polyphonics.

To start with I bought a Roland Gaia; I know it doesn't get a lot of love, BUT... compared to UltraNovas and such, it has no menu diving - I have all these wonderful sliders and knobs to learn with and really understand what's going on. I've developed intuitive understanding of ADSR and other basic concepts like modulating LFO with it way better and faster than I imagine I would with a book - so if I outgrow it one day, it'll still have been a wortwhile purchase:).

Also played a bit with an old old USB Midi keyboard I had and Caustic software, and have access to Casio CTK-6250 regular electronic keyboard as needed.

Basically, I've discovered a fertile new ground and am looking to deep dive :).

But as I said - there's tons of reviews and suggestions on equipment out there; a fair amount of courses (good or bad) on how to create sound; but far less on how to learn to play synth in any kind of accelerated, non-traditional/classical way. As per my other post to fellow commenter - I find I can "play" piano/synth just from my guitar experience enough to have fun and run some chord progressions etc; and fear that first "two years" worth of classical piano would not substantially advance me in the direction I want to move. Perhaps I'm wrong... we'll see! :)

Bit-depth reduction is counter-productive. You're just adding noise to the signal, and reducing the dynamic range.

As for resampling, it depends on the specifics of the resampler used by a specific codec implementation. If a resampler is terrible, it could add artifacts like ringing and aliasing that would degrade the encoding quality.

The thief in this case used a false id, engaged in identity theft, and also robbed another person on the same day.

It's hard to imagine circumstances where any court or jury would fail to find criminal intent in this particular case given those details.

If someone borrows something and then gets lost in the woods and dies, it's not theft because there wasn't intent.

You are correct that these cases hinge on intent.

I work for a small consulting company specializing in SF custom development. About 1/3 of our projects are coming in and fixing something other consultants screwed up. It's very expensive and I really feel for the position our clients are in. The governor limits are particularly nasty, you have to be constantly aware because they won't bite you in development since you're usually working on a limited set of data. It's only after a production deployment do they begin to show up and there's nothing you can do.

funny you mention Salesforce as IaaS, a buddy of mine works at one of the big firms and was telling me the other day he's on a project where the client is layering a multi-tenant architecture on top of Salesforce's Community Cloud product and basically reselling communities.

You know that. People don't.

I dont particularly care if YouTube allows people to edit videos, but on anything with comments, allowing someone to know it was edited seems like good information management, and in this case, helps inform people not in tech that it is editable.

The more obvious the indicator that it was edited, the more people will understand that it is an option.

> A key element of any larceny or theft crime is what an offender intends to do with the property after taking it. Typically, an offender is guilty of a theft crime when he takes the property of another with the intention of permanently depriving him of it. Deciding later to keep the property an offender originally intended to use temporarily and then return becomes a larceny or theft crime at the moment the offender's intent changes. The perfect example of this is a rental car you decide not to return. A lawful rental becomes a larceny or theft crime the moment you fail to return it on time with the intention of keeping it.

Other sources agree:

Many state laws agree:

https://apps.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=9A.56.096 (Note here both that the law here explicitly states that not returning a leased or rented item is theft, and that it is specifically presumed so when one uses a false id or address.)

Including the state where the above guy lives:

The claim that it's simply a civil contract issue with no criminal implications is not correct.

Given that the thief in the above case also used a false identity, he is guilty of identity theft as well.
Does anyone feel like their scraped knees and head colds are "medicalized" because there's treatment available and medical terminology for talking about it? You can take your scraped knee to your family doctor or an urgent care clinic and get a bandage applied to it, but people rarely do, and having the option doesn't freak anyone out.

So why are people bothered by their anxiety or reoccurring blue moods being "medicalized?" As far as I can tell, it's just the stubborn lingering stigma associated with mental illness. The fact that a person's cold is a physical illness feels harmless to them, but the idea that they might be suffering from a "mental" illness, even a mild and common one, feels way more momentous and scary than it should.

Clearly I am not alone in my sense that we have already hit the boundaries of how far we can sensibly apply the paradigm of mental health as a means of understanding and addressing human misfortunes.

This is ridiculous. We certainly haven't gone far enough when people identify "mental health" with an inability to function without professional support. How ridiculous would it be if people denied having a physical injury when they had a scraped knee, because they felt denial was the only way to avoid seeing a doctor? How ridiculous would it be if people didn't brush their teeth because they didn't want to give up their precious self-reliance to "dental health" professionals? We reduce our reliance on professionals by applying knowledge from those professions, not by denying their relevance.
That game got a remake a couple of years ago. I don't know if they were referring to that.
Note that auto parts stores have exactly the business model you want. Thousands of obscure parts in stock. Not too far away is a large warehouse with tens of thousands more obscure parts which they can get in just a couple hours at no cost. Most of the time the people working know their products well and can give useful advice on your problem.
Of course, that's why it says "illegally". Those dashcams can be installed legally, and this guy's wasn't legally installed.

> This is the most common reaction within the elixir community, to assume that anyone who doesn't put the language on a pedestal dislikes it or hates it.

Not sure you and I read the same forum. My reaction to Elixir criticism usually is -- "well, if you dislike it for this or that reason, or simply don't find it useful, then don't use it, there are a lot of other languages out there". Many others do the same.

I haven't noticed cargo-culting on ElixirForum in a long time. You might simply be too cynical to differentiate people whose work life has been genuinely improved (and they express that sentiment on the forum) and people who overhype something you dislike (for valid reasons for your use-cases).
The overwhelming majority of new HIV infections are men having sex with men. Having unprotected anal sex with a man is absolutely the highest risk category for HIV.

https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/group/msm/index.html

The second risk factor is using intravenous drugs. Stay away from these two things and you are very safe.

It’s also not so much historical factors as the fact that anal sex is a little more than 30x more likely to spread HIV than vaginal sex.

This could be a case of enforcement against large companies taking longer to conduct, given the complex nature of the cases and the resources of the legal teams involved. My understanding is that a lot of stuff is pending before the Irish data protection agency.

Here are a few things that set it apart:

- It is opinionated so teams no longer have to debate about coding styles. It is a refreshing change once you get used to that mindset. IC2 formatter has many configurations that developers can tweak, but that means you as a team need to debate within yourself which one(s) to configure.

- It is a CLI tool. That means you can do things like: run it as a linting tool on every commit to enforce coding styles, run it as a pre-commit hook, auto format files when you save in your IDE, etc. IC2 is closed source, and as far as I know there's no easy way to run it in a headless way.

- It is free.

- It is open source and has been tested on millions of lines of code. If you're using an open source Apex library, chances are it's part of the integration test suite, see [0]

- It is written specifically for Apex/SOQL/SOSL. That means it knows the context of your code and can format based on that. Tools like Uncrustify technically do work on Apex code, but it is being parsed as a generic C-like syntax so a lot of things do not work right (especially when Apex moves farther away from being Java-like).

- It is blessed by Salesforce, and their official IDE (VSCode) will soon adopt Prettier as the formatting tool of choice.

Those are just a few reasons. Prettier has a dedicated page [1] for everything else that also applies to this project.

I'm also a full-time SF developer and am finding the transition to DX a bit rough, to be honest.

I had an analogous experience with another service Omni https://omni.co not too long ago. I rented out my drone as I wasn't using it too regularly. I had confidence that their insurance policy would cover any damage by renters.

I recently had my drone returned to me as I was planning to use it on an upcoming vacation. I did not bother to inspect the drone when they sent it back to me. A few weeks later, I decided to use it and realized there was scuffs, damage to the propellers, and that the camera gimbal was broken.

A renter had crashed my drone. I contacted Omni to request details on filing an insurance claim. I got an email stating that I only had 48 hours after the item was returned to me to file a claim. Quite frustrating. I will definitely will be reading the details of these insurance policies in the future.
