>"We think of Trello as a tool you can use across work and life," says Stella Garber, [Trello's] head of marketing. [...] (Slack declined to share any information about how people use its software, and Atlassian, which owns Jira, did not respond to a similar request.)

This is interesting... The author may have overlooked the fact that Atlassian also owns Trello.
Damn, that sucks. You are a hero to many.

Twitter 'enforcement' can be completely arbitrarily if you have been following some of the news stories in the past months. Maybe you can make a new one that doesn't use a trademarked name and see if it sticks.
Yeah, I'm a big fan of using work productivity tools for personal stuff too. I personally use Notion and Monday.com lately.
Hey you're right I forgot to mention that MAYBE the brain might have a long cord going off into soul land and that's where the real stuff happens. You know - in the cloud. It's just that maybe we just haven't found that cord yet. It's like super super transparent! Hard to see. Wireless, even. That's why you can't think in a faraday cage. No access to the cloud.

see how silly that sounds.

so on one level sure you're right, on the other hand it's obvious. no, there's obviously no super transparent cord going off to soul land. it's just a bunch of sell-contained cells. It's not wireless. It's not even networked. It's just limited to within your body. You can literally plunge yourself in water and still think.

you have no cord going off into ether. you are nnot a networked component. you are just a bunch of cells in one little package and that's it. That's you. your output is what your body does robotically (move, make sounds) your input is sensory. and your consciousnes is whatever your braincells are doing.

That looks like a nice playlist (I know lots of the artists and will have to check out some of the others), but it's completely unrelated to someone asking for a way to generate copyright-free music to use in their own videos.
It's true that it isn't something we can say definitively. It's more than a philosophical belief, however.

There isn't any evidence that there is anything happening that's not biological despite 1000's of years of searching for that evidence.

And there is all kinds of evidence that biological processes can explain our experience. More all the time.

It's not definitive in the sense that we're anywhere near completely understanding our biology.

But it's the most likely explanation, given what we do know, but such a huge margin that there is no real alternative explanation outside of mythology.
I remember I got a tv a many years ago that had a cinema setting with accurate colors.

The only problem was that you pretty much had to watch it in dark room (LCD before LED backlighting).

I looked into the article you linked regarding self-attention. I quote:

> Yes, we have a different definition that we use that is very concrete. It’s mathematical, you can measure it, you can quantify it, you can compute the error to what degree. Philosophers might say, “Well, that’s not how we see self-awareness.” Then the discussion usually becomes very vague. You can argue that our definition is not really self-awareness. But we have something that’s very grounded and easy to quantify, because we have a benchmark.

So he's redefining something in a way that merely satisfies his world view. That is not in any way consciousness. Consciousness inherently has the "knowing" quality of your experience: you know you are reading this. You can make the smartest, brightest AI robot, with the best machine learning algorithms, that functions the same as a human being, but in the end, it doesn't know it's doing that because it isn't conscious of it.

Hell you don't even need a robot for that. A person that has recently died has all the components you need for a functional human being. The only thing missing is that it isn't conscious anymore. You can fix/replace the heart, do whatever you need physically, but changing the physical building blocks, as per the materialist view, won't bring the consciousness back.
It's a magnet membrane surrounding a portion of liquid.

On one side your right, this isn't really a "liquid magnet", but on the other, this behaves like a magnet while retaining many of the properties of a liquid.
The most important phrase of the entire piece:

“A world of knowledge without understanding becomes a world without discernible cause and effect...”
Like a rat fleeing a sinking ship. He has been systematically liquidating his holdings and this move was well telegraphed.

Here is a question... why would a CTO liquidate the stock and quit a company supposedly on the verge of an economy transforming self driving breakthrough?

Because it is a fraudulent claim that full self driving is here or anywhere near for Tesla.

Elon Musk has encouraged a lot of engineers and has accomplished great things with these teams, but he has no concept of what is acceptable behaviour for a CEO of a publicly listed company. He regularly commits securities fraud. Faking it til you make it may be a good motto in life, but when it is people’s investments on the line, it is fraud. When it is safety on the line it is fraud.

As a trader, frankly it disgusts me that the SEC is so lenient with him. This basically opens up the world to terrifying securities frauds simply bc he is rich and famous.

I can assure you if I did anything even close to what he does on a seemingly daily basis when it comes to misrepresentation and fraud, I would be put in prison for years. He gets a pass bc he is Elon Musk and that is disgusting.

Elon Musk should be relegated to the non technical cheerleading role he is good at while an adult runs the company and refrains from repetitive securities fraud.

Straubel is leaving because he wants no part of what is likely coming. A liquidity crunch and further fraudulent activity. Fraud secured.
It looks like the problem is that their is no stable version with any long term commitments to security fixes, at least I couldn't find any mention of one on the website or github page. I'm can't see any release branches on github.

So the problem is VLC using unstable dependencies without a mature release cycle.
A fun read and primer on the subject. However, I would like to see more emphasis on including a time stamp as part of the signed payload. The reason is multifold: (a) Most importantly prevents ‘replay attacks’ [1]. Systems that need to send send the same command will do so with a unique time stamp and, therefore, a unique signature. (b) The time stamp + signature is an idempotency key. Your key cache’s TTL is the same as the timeout for your time stamp rejections. (c) To a lesser extent bolsters the system against a brute force length extension attack (see the Flickr API flaw in the reading) by reducing the time the middle-man has to correctly calculate the glue bytes.

I'm not surprised to hear this at all. LinkedIn is probably the scummiest tech company of reasonable size, and always have been. Facebook only gets more attention because they're much bigger and more powerful, so people notice their constant toeing of the boundaries while ignoring LinkedIn blithely leaping across them.

No. In my experience, the first thing that Google Maps does is send your location to Google, run an auction for local advertisers, then download a half dozen images of local "featured" businesses. On my old phone, Maps was snappy enough before they added that antifeature, and things went downhill from there. When I retired that phone last year, it could take over a minute just to show a map (often devoid of street names).

Now, I actually don't have a mapping app on my phone. It takes a little planning ahead, but I'm happier to do without.
Hello World Using Caesar
> His departure is the latest in a long string of high-profile executives to leave Tesla in the past year, most recently Steve McManus, a vice president in charge of engineering for car interiors and exteriors at Tesla, who joined Apple. Two other former Tesla executives, Michael Schwekutsch, and chief engineer Doug Field, have also left to join Apple.

Not to understate the significance of Tesla losing Straubel, but TechCrunch's claim that Tesla is losing lots of "high-profile executives" seems like a little bit of a stretch. Steve McManus was a vice president in charge of "car interiors." It seems strange to place him on the same level of significance of their CTO.
On the social comparison note, I don't regret 8 years of constant training in the least, however I do suspect that if you do add a lot of musculature to a tall frame it can be a bit intimidating in engineering cultures where most men are out of shape and view the activity as "meatheadish."
I went through it all in less than 2 years and ended up hoarding the things I enjoy very much to this date. I have no regrets (never), coming into millions in thirties is an incredible life experience and the vacations, scotches, watches, cars, homes and other toys are all things I have enjoyed very very much. I also learned to buy forever things which has changed how I see consumption completely. It also led to some amazing opportunities to meet very interesting people in strange places. Overall, I cannot emphasize how much fun it is to spend a few million dollars in 12-18 months without being fixated with savings.

Generally it's about being less strict, but it's typically done for health reasons. I mean pushing every into a box is hard. Intentionally eating any kind of meat or meat byproduct, including fish means you're not following a vegetarian lifestyle. It's not a knock on the person it's just in the definition, an example would be a professional sports player. If they are no longer playing the sport in the big leagues they are no longer a big league sports player. It doesn't mean they couldn't be one again, just that they aren't even they aren't. If they move to the minor leagues they are a minor league player. Veganism with it's stricter requirements would be like a big league player, vegetarian which is a bit easier to maintain minor leagues, and people who only play sometimes would be pick up players or adult league players. The problem comes when people confuse the issue for those unfamiliar with the lifestyle. Someone who occasionally eats meat around their family might confuse their family into thinking that all vegetarians are comfortable with this when most aren't. I'd personally prefer that people that do this use the flexatarianism name to avoid that confusion.

Strictly speaking veganism does generally include clothing as part of the definition, I typically dress vegan but eat vegetarian. I have no problem stealing honey from bees as I view it as a generally cobeneficial relationship. I plant flowers for them specifically, set up housing for them, and protect them from their enemies, all ensuring a higher survival chance and more production. Same with pets. I feed them, take care of them, provide them love, and mutually we have a relationship of family. Our pets are given every opportunity to be the animals they are with the benefit of free food and protection, just for being part of the family.

If you're looking for leather style formal shoes that aren't leather, look for things like PU (not PU leather) or vegan leather. It's all just a way of saying PVC clothing. You can also look for the tag "all man-made materials". Your headphones are generally not real leather unless they explicitly state it and are very high end. Couch guitar straps makes some great vegan belts from recycled car vinyl, clickbelts make some vegan ones too, mooshoes has only vegan shoes, and searching vegan shoes on Amazon will bring up tons in all difference price ranges. All of these are just suggestions if you're looking for them.

One option is Wolfram Tones (tones.wolfram.com/generate). It uses cellular automatons (so not quite AI but achieves your goal) to generate music.

- You can change the type of music (Jazz, Classic etc.), select instruments and so on

- You can download the music as well

The only downside is that you can only get a maximum of 30 seconds. What you can do however, is go to their free programming lab and write some code to generate any length that you might want.
I'm not surprised that Haskell supports this kind of parallelism, although I wasn't aware of it previously. After all, if you're going to the trouble of being that pure, why not be parallel?
It's allowed in the sense that people are allowed to be wrong and/or ignorant because that's what most of us are on most topics. We can't stop that any more than King Canute could stop the waves. The important question is, what's the best way to handle it if we want to have an internet forum that doesn't suck? Experience teaches that the answer is: the patient supply of correct information by people who do know about a topic.

I don't mean to minimize how infuriating it is to be surrounded by a flood of ignorance and wrongness. But that's the situation you're in if you're knowledgeable. Railing against it only makes things worse. Being able to contain the annoyance, so that it doesn't drive your communication, is a hard prereq for doing something good about it.

"Fined $5B by regulators" doesn't usually have the PR effect of making a company seem trustworthy. It gives the company the reputation, validated by regulators in the eyes of the public, that they were caught doing something egregious and will likely do it again if they think they can get away with it.

I've never heard someone express the point you're making: can you think of any example where the PR impact turned out that way?

Sure. But you will need power after 2060. Just because you went neutral doesn't mean you suddenly don't need extra energy.

ATM fission, with its Chernobyl and Fukushima is still safer than solar and wind. And overall better for environment.

Fusion in theory promises even more - low environment impact plus no risk of disaster.

I don't see variability as a positive trait. From what I remember, renewables, really suck for the grid, as it wasn't designed for too much variability or diffusion in mind.

> since law enforcement has (successfully!) argued that they have no legal duty to serve and protect you

IANAL. My understanding is police have a duty to the public at large, not to an individual person outside of a special relationship (i.e. witness protection). If the police did have a duty to individuals, the state would be unable to allocate police resources to best serve the public. Essentially, individual priorities would DDOS police resources. In the case you reference:

> a government and its agents are under no general duty to provide public services, such as police protection, to any particular individual citizen. [...] A publicly maintained police force constitutes a basic governmental service provided to benefit the community at large by promoting public peace, safety and good order. [...] Publicly furnished police protection may accrue to the personal benefit of individual citizens, but at all times the needs and interests of the community at large predominate.

The "tiger mom" phenomenon was every bit as much in force, as far as I know, during my time in high school during the early to mid aughts.

Honestly, if you're going to be so overly organized (which some people are) this at least sounds like a better way to do it. Might as well have your calendar online and your messages in one place so everyone knows what's going on.
> The earliest bankers were the goldsmiths

Not according to Charles Kindleberger’s A Financial History of Western Europe. His explanation for this persistent myth is that some British banks could trace some of their antecedents to goldsmiths and it made decent advertising copy. Thus it gets into books about banking written by non-historians and perpetuates itself.

A more common origin for banks was money changers, international traders in commodities and traders in bills of exchange.
Permanent magnets are locked in place. If they're floating freely, the "tiny magnets" just snap together and cancel each other out. That's why heating (increasing particle mobility) a permanent magnet makes it lose its magnetization.

You can keep samples as long as you want. The CAP requires accredited labs to keep them 10 years. Attorneys simply want a record retention policy, which creates a natural tension many lab directors respond to by getting rid of the blocks after 10 years. See (1) for the checklist, the specific line item is ANP.12500. In theory things can get kicked to a biorepository, but the standards for a CAP-accredited biorepository are quite high. Running a biorepository that's not accredited raises the specter of questions like "What are you doing with this material, doctor?", so a lot of folks would rather burn our hope for the future than have any possible source of questions about what they're doing.
