This is amazing! What a clever concept to use these for inspiration.
People seem to be ignoring that the forced shutdown was based on models that have proven completely and utterly wrong. The actual data turned out to be several times better than the best possible scenario of a Wuhan style lockdown. Saying the shutdown worked is meaningless, because what are you even comparing it to?

Musk is absolutely right that the models we shut down over were based on were astrology.
Are you saying that Artbreeder is using a model trained from scratch?

If so, was that a recent change? When I checked several months ago, your latent space sliders were compatible with nVidia's FFHQ model: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23149739

The only explanation seemed to be that Artbreeder was fine-tuned from nVidia's released FFHQ model.

To rephrase the question: It seems like you were using nVidia's model (or a fine-tuned version) at some point in the past. At the time, you were also selling subscriptions via your pricing page. Do you just sort of ignore the legal implications and hope that it never becomes an issue?

(That's sometimes an effective strategy.)
Introducing any mental overhead to eliminate a single character per line at most seems a tad ridiculous.
Hey! So I feel a lot of creativity is 'combinatorial', i.e knows what two things might go well together. Artbreeder kind of gamifies that by making it very easy. So many images may look similar but some people can really develop their own style with time.

Also, often my favorite part of artbreeder is when artists take what they save as the inspiration or building blocks for full works. It's really an inspiration tool, but saying inspiration-breeder is a mouthful.

More generally, I think computation can meaningfully augment human creativity by providing surprise and break us out of our loops.

Good question. I do think this would be achievable through annotations if an application were determined to do it. Annotations are sort of the catch-all for added functionality.

The philosophical question is an interesting one. I think for the most part, if items are meaningfully related, the Margin philosophy would probably be to store them within the same document parent (or file).

But is it about quantity and speed though? I think, as human, lingering on a subject is actually working/brewing an idea subconsciously. If everything becomes possible with these tools and they become indispensable we;re going to end up with poorer writers. The effort and the hard stuff makes good writers...

I've had this vision that one day you may write a simple text and when done with it one will be able to choose a command and the same content of the text transforms to the style of Italo Calvino or Hemingway or GG Marquez or whatever you want. At the end of the vision I asked myself what it would mean. My answer was complete vulgarization of anything.

You can get an 8TB HDD for $150 right now. That's 6250 drives. That's about $1MM in drives, which doesn't sound that cost-prohibitive. Obviously that's not the whole cost since you need to pay for bandwidth, replication and other infrastructure like the host node, but it sounds like something that could be even hosted by a number of volunteers on r/datahoarder or r/homelab.

I also remember reading about Sia on HN, which is a dapp that pays hosts to store data and distributes it. Looking at the going rates on Sia ($1.45/TB/mo), that's $870k/yr. That's ~10% of the IA budget (which is only $10MM/yr, which sounds very efficient!) but shows that the order of magnitude is not that crazy.

Everyone understood what Nintendo was up to. Sega friends (that's how I thought of them, defined by the console they owned) would tell me about this or that technology, but not many games for this new tech.... on the Nintendo systems (and later my PC) I had games.

By the time the Saturn was out.... most Sega friends had converted to something else, it was already over.

perhaps it's possible with Preact|Inferno + SSR, i dunno. but this [1] seems to use babel/webpack and a bunch of other stuff. it's not clear to me from that post how minimal the end result can actually be.

the thing is, React's ecosystem is also to blame, it is so full of ready-to-go-do-everything popular components with inefficient code that cannot be tree-shaken, that lack of care in bundle evaluation is absolutely rampant. every imaginable feature is just some burned-out dev's `npm i` away, node_modules be damned.

What's the advantage of reducing it by 50% each year versus 30% every 6 months (51% a year)? Seems like the stepping function would be less severe.
I sometimes worry about my mom with this stuff. I've caught glimpses of InfoWars on her Facebook follows, she sent me that "Plandemic" video that went around last week, she's been an avid Fox News watcher for basically my entire life. She isn't pushy about it and when stuff like that comes up I just try to gently contest it. Not sure what else can be done.
The linked page says the memory is part of the SOM chip which to me implies it's not upgradable. Though the i.MX8 reference website does appear to support external devices for memory, so you may be able to upgrade it, by attaching another device to the board (but that's unclear to me)
I'm guessing the workers at his factories need to come to work anyways. A paycheck is a paycheck.
His company does surveillance tech for the criminal justice system, meaning they handle sensitive data and are involved in areas with high risk of racial bias and important privacy and ethics questions. If I was contracting with him, I'd be concerned about why his criminal history wasnt communicated sooner given how relevant it is to the nature of his business (especially with concerns about racial discrimination in the criminal justice system), and I'd be curious why I only found out about it through a news report. He isn't owed societies trust with something so sensitive, delicate, and important. I'm glad he's reformed as a person from his getaway driver for a racially motivated drive by shooting days, but I don't feel sad at all that government is taking the background history of their contractors very seriously and that he is responding by stepping down to signal to people impacted by the criminal justice system the values of Banjo and to alleviate concerns people will have if their police force is contracting with an ex KKK member.
Commissions are a major reason why the market lacks liquidity. When someone buys a house, they're immediately 6% below market value, just from commissions.

To each their own.

Redfin was a fantastic experience for us. The advice was rational and unbiased (they get paid off of reviews, not commissions, if I recall my research correctly).

And the house sold, which is wonderful.

Also, kickbacks may be illegal, but that doesn't mean they're uncommon or that the laws would be enforced.

Hydrogen is a great place to start with electricity since there is only one orbital surface/ electron-shell. The principles are easily generalized to the multipolar surfaces of metals. Metals are conductive because of these unique d orbitals. In general they have unpaired electrons, which means charge on balance.

"To begin with"...

1) these are ionized hydrogens with delocalized electrons.
2) Capacitors build up voltage, which is differential rotation of their metal's e-shells.
3) In the vacuum, there is such low pressure on the atoms that their surfaces expand to fill the void. There is no such thing as a true vacuum. This is also how cathode ray tubes work under this model.
4) See above. The orbitals are in contact.
5) All those cyclotron measurements are electric at the end of the day.
6) Batteries charge the terminals electro-chemically. chemistry will follow in an additional video after magnetism. Basically, it is the same concept. Enmeshment of surfaces.
7) What dynamos?
8) All materials resist current to certain extent; this has to do with how conductive they are, which is a direct result of how their orbitals are configured/ how the atom is shaped. Capacitors are just terminals separated by insulating resistors. All these details deserve a follow-up blog at some point for sure. Thanks.
9) light is coming. Heat is chaotic motion, while electricity is a particular rotatory type. heat also involves translation/vibration in addition to shell rotation.
10) Hydrogens that are ionized are not empty protons, they simply have delocalized shells.
11) We don't think the limitless extension of the electron is mathematical gibberish. We think that those structures are essential to other atomic phenomenon, including light and gravity. videos to follow.
12) the locked up gear thing isn't a problem for the multi-polar orbitals of actual metals. It would be a problem for a hydrogen lattice, unless it had a hexagonal crystal, with bent geometry...hm.

UBI doesn't stop people working. It just stops them starving if they don't/can't work. It allows them to re-skill without risking ending up on the street. It provides a safe path out of poverty traps.

People will always get bored and people will always want nicer things, so they'll always eventually be motivated to go and get work to improve their lot. UBI won't change that. In fact, it will facilitate it.

I actually wish we had more advanced features in HTML itself. There are still many cases today where you only need JS to load something on click or for a simple datepicker.

If some basic things like <input type="date"> and the <details> tag (and associated css) were actually standard, reliable and working, we would not need JS at all most of the time.

I also wonder after 20 years why we still don't have something like <a target="#myDiv"> or <form target="#myDiv"> to dynamically load content rather than billions of specific ajax query scripts everywhere.
Not trying to brag or virtue signal here but this is one cause I really feel great supporting. This is potentially our archive of human history and collective knowledge.

That is extremely cool. One point of hopefully constructive feedback: It's not clear to me how I can use this, or even if I can use it without re-engineering my system (i.e. can this be applied to an existing postmarketOS/ubports/whatever image, or does it have to be integrated into the image build process?). I'm perfectly comfortable using dd to overwrite a boot sector (heck, that's the syslinux install process on x86), but then do I just poke through my boot partition and build a config file that points at my existing kernel+initrd?
Exactly! The idea here is to formalize the already intuitive way many of us use plain text. Once the syntax is formalized, it can be utilized by applications. This way your data remains in a portable, non-proprietary format that can be reliably parsed - whether you choose to use notepad.exe or a Margin-specific application, you already have everything you need.

I understand that line of thinking but that would imply the prevalence rate of COVID was in complete parallel with the incidence rate. The former is what we do not know and that's clear when we've had patients labs reran from 2019 and found it was positive for COVID. Government data from China says the first case can be traced back to 17 November 2019 and even then they're unsure if that was patient zero[0]

How many American's were in Asia, China, or surrounding areas between October and December of 2019? How many of them were possibly infected?

Faraday believed his 'fields' were what some sort of actual objects were doing. He called them tentacles IIRC.

In our initial atom at beginning of the vid, the electron has tentacles based on Faraday to account for the tails of the RDF of QM — the indefinite extension of the shell. These will be important in visualizing the atomics of light and gravity in future vids. We ignore them for the circuit because they would obscure the events, but the tentacles remain!

The best solution would have been for the US to shut down from mid-February to the end of March to get time to put together a comprehensive testing and contact tracing program, but that was never in the cards: people wouldn't have accepted it coming so soon, and wouldn't have accepted sitting in quarantine for two months when weekly national deaths weren't even breaking double digits.

As for what now... unfortunately I don't think there's a good way out for the USA. Other highly developed countries have established a tenuous path toward controlling the virus (in different ways), but Americans seems intent on running headfirst into the abattoir.

In a sense I agree, but think that some people used to make a living out of it and that is becoming less and less possible. In the long run fewer people are going to be artists and more will steer towards engineering. I wonder if that is a good thing or not.
