To be fair, curl is a nightmare of pedantry without something like postman to deal with it all for you. BTW, when did postman come out anyway?
That's a pretty strange claim, do you have any evidence for it? Priests are not exactly wealthy, in general.
The ThinkPad X1 Extreme (Gen 3 has just been released) is another nice one.
But this suggests a way to defeat the cloak -- run your input through image similarity search, then run your facial recognition software on the hits. This won't work in full generality, not every picture is on the internet like that, but it can certainly help, I imagine.
I could not find this info in the docs or the faq:
Is Biff suitable for a Javascript front end? is there an API for a plain JS frontend to use Biff? (I like clojure backends with boring JS in the front)

That's my only question about it. Thank you for sharing it. I found the project very enjoyable to browse and really appreciate that you shared several of your key design decisions.

Good Work!
The European strain reinfected Asian countries, so some policy difference still seems likely.
A comment from r/machinelearning:

"It seems obvious from the demos that GPT-3 is capable of reasoning.

But not consistently.

It would be critical, imo, to see if we can identify a pattern of activity in it associated with the lucid responses vs activity when it prodcues nonsense.

If/when we have such a apattern we would need to find a way to enforce it to happen in every interaction"

And people agree:

"Dunno why you are getting downvoted, I agree with you. It seems like to get GPT-3 to do good reasoning you have to convince it that it is writing about a dialogue between two smart people. Talking to Einstein, giving some good examples, etc. all seem to help. Shaping really seems to matter, but I don’t think we have enough access to the hidden state to determine if there are quantitative differences between when it is more lucid and when it isn’t.

It’s like Gwern said: “sampling cannot prove the absence of knowledge, only the presence of it” (because whenever it fails, maybe with a different context, different sampling parameters, using spaces between letters, etc. it would have worked)"

Its interesting that this kind of speculation is entering the conversation. I think we are on the cusp

Many VPS providers are offering similar terms. DigitalOcean has its Write for DOnations program (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/pages/write-for-digit...) which pays $300 for a new tutorial, for instance. I'd imagine the cost must pay itself off, I've seen many people sign up for DigitalOcean because they wanted to follow one of the tutorials (even though you don't really need DO to follow them).

>The explicit purpose of a uniform is to associate an individual with an organization (e.g. the Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Bureau of Prison, etc) that vests them with specific authorities - for example, the authority to detain and charge citizens with crimes.

Nice job changing the goal posts.

>These actors in Portland do not wear patches, badges, names, or other identifying features that associate them with any authority.

Are you sure? I have heard there actually are badges on the uniforms. I have only seen pictures and videos on my phone so I could not tell personally if that is the case.

Will you please provide a video / picture of the uniforms?

> Camouflage clothing can be purchased by anyone with the Internet and a credit card. A badge number can’t. This distinction is important to maintain a free society.

Anybody can buy a fake police uniform and badge as well. Amazon has multiple for cheap.

I doubt I would know a real police uniform from a fake one.

GNU grep uses the well-known Boyer-Moore algorithm, which looks first for the final letter of the target string, and uses a lookup table to tell it how far ahead it can skip in the input whenever it finds a non-matching character.

I wonder how many times that algorithm or its variants has been rediscovered, given that not everyone who writes code reads CS papers; I recall several decades ago, working in x86 Asm, and coming up with that "match the last element first and use an indexed skip table" idea when I had to do substring matching, and then much later, when I explained it to someone else who was interested to know how I made that functionality so fast, he basically told me I had rediscovered the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyer%E2%80%93Moore%E2%80%93Ho... .

As it turns out, BMH is more common in practice (even when the author doesn't realise it) than BM, and on average performs very well:

https://old.blog.phusion.nl/2010/12/06/efficient-substring-s...

I suspect at least some standard library's memmem() uses BMH, since it doesn't require dynamic allocation or other complexity unlike BM, and is otherwise a drop-in replacement for the naive algorithm.

Good article. I was half expecting at the end to read that the article itself was generated by GPT3. Luckily GPT3 can’t explain itself just yet.
I've always wondered if we could leverage the vast amount of GitHub code - that assumably all compiles without error or undefined behaviour on their master branches - train some sort of neural net to better catch syntax errors.

Has anyone done something like this, or am I riding the 2016 neural net hype train still?
Yes, pandemics are to be expected. The impact and magnitude of response necessary for this one is not predictable. The last one that came close was over 100 years ago.
Thanks for the feedback! I intend to add support for multi user so that may require some sort of auth. I haven't got around to how I am going to implement it though.

You missed the word "unprocessed" in my post that you replied to. Of course that the processed junk is not good. Nobody is saying that Starbucks "coffee" with ungodly amount of sugar or any similar thing is good for you.
From last time this came up, the number of bits in the numbers involved is 2^(9^12). Storing a count of the number of bits takes about 930 billion digits. Actually storing the bits or digits of the numbers per se takes a whole lot more, to say the least.

It's worth being precise here. They didn't deny there was a breach, they denied being aware of a breach. They didn't rule it out.
It might be a little easier now, tell them you're a EU resident... and they have to by GDPR....
That is a correct impression. A name, date, and associated place, with all three assumed to uniquely identify an individual in most cases, are required to perform the ordinance. Most typically, that's a birth name and a date and place of birth, date and place of death, or date and place of marriage.

If it turns out that there were two people with the same name born in the same town on the same day... well, the angels will help figure that out later.
I think that technique probably works a lot better with high-resolution professional headshots than it does with candid photos at the family reunion, for example.

However, if someone is willing to go to that level of effort, the target probably needs to aim for something a little more forceful than tricking Facebook's autotagger.
That's an existing problem that hasn't been solved in geopolitical meatspace. I don't expect it to be solved in cybersecurity first.

That said, for my understanding: which political bodies are countries but not nation-states? Is this a reference to places like Singapore and the Vatican, which are probably more accurately labeled city-states?
Depends who you ask I think.

Actually, the rPi foundation have been extremely lazy about ARM64 support. The Pi 3 and newer support it (and I run 64bit Arch on mine), but Raspbian does not. I'd wager 95% of Pi users are stuck with 32-bit ARM software, as you have to go out of your way for ARM64 support.
It's a real mess. I ran into an issue recently because I'm dealing with probability distributions in terms of several sets of general curvilinear coordinate systems. In a context like this, the usual abuse of notation in which the function is identified by which arguments go into it just doesn't work. I have a probability density in Cartesian coordinates expressed as a function of (say) elliptical coordinates -- which differs by the Jacobian from the probability density in elliptical coordinates.
My understanding is the Hypervisor framework didn’t easily support file system connectivity like fuse or different networking scenarios with virtio but perhaps the new, linked, APIs here in Big Sur now offer that? I presume Apple asked VMWare and Parallels why neither used the new Hypervisor framework and this was the resulting collaboration, but it might also have come about simply because Apple wanted to demo virtualization on ARM, of course...
I use mine to listen to Radio Paradise and to have it tell me when my packages arrive at the Hub. Which is usually a couple of hours late these days, so I just rely on the email it sends earlier. So I use it just for the Radio Paradise.

Aha, apparently there is an image sidebar which is hidden on mobile, where is given the following reason for the star's haloed appearance:

"The image was captured by blocking the light from the young, Sun-like star (top-left of centre) using a coronagraph, which allows for the fainter planets to be detected. The bright and dark rings we see on the star’s image are optical artefacts."
Sure. They might outlaw brown hair, too. They might outlaw last names with vowels. That hypothetical, imaginary risk doesn't make it sensible to dye your hair and change your name.
How about the study instead of the press release: https://www.ijidonline.com/article/S1201-9712(20)30534-8/ful...

I have to admit, the HCQ research has me all confused. First it works, then it doesn't work, then it works with zinc and/or azithromycin? Which is it? Are there any obvious flaws with this study, other than it not being a randomized, double blind, controlled study?
Now imagine being able to 'recompile' a mathematical text as an AST for the derivation, so that you could dive down and see where all the terms and definitions were coming from, instead of having to try to search a PDF for some symbol you can't ctrl-F for.
I’ll admit though I ran it in Beta 2, I’m not aware of the details of which release had which API or which features VMware is using or not. It’s possible VMWare, having inside access to Apple docs, started working with private APIs that Apple has now made public? I really don’t know the details, I’d be happy if others chimed in, though. :)

That leads to my afterlife nightmare scenario.

I die bravely in glorious battle and am chosen by the Valkyries for Valhalla. One evening as we feast after that day's fighting, quaffing giant tankards of mead and boasting of our deeds, there comes a knock at the door.

Two young men in suits enter, and go to speak to Odin.

Odin then call for me to come over. He tells me that the young men are Mormons, and that some distant relative born long after I died (great-grandkid of a second cousin or something like that) has joined the Mormon church and has been busy baptizing the whole damn family tree.

Odin tells me I'm Mormon now, and cannot stay in Valhalla. I must move to the Mormon afterlife.

(Actually, the Mormon afterlife doesn't seem all that bad compared to that of most Christian or Christian-adjacent religions, in the sense that if you reject their teachings but still live a decent life you get a decent afterlife).
I completely missed this when I first looked at the link, but based on another comment, the break even point is considerably beyond the size of any number that would fit in the universe as we know it. Or any number you could write down if you had a universe for each atom in our universe, etc.

Thanks! I haven't used a plain JS backend with it myself, but I think that would work well (the majority of Biff is backend code anyway). I haven't exposed a JS api, but doing so should be pretty easy. All of Biff's frontend code is in the biff.client namespace, and the only function you need is biff.client/init-sub [1], which takes:

- an atom, the contents of which describe what data you're subscribing to

- another atom, which is populated with the results of your subscriptions

- a function for handling server-sent websocket events (if your app uses any)

and it returns a function for sending websocket events to the server (which is used for sending transactions + any custom events you define).

So that continues my question: how much of that text would be on the private domain? If there is, is it all legally purchased?
While a personally agree with you thoroughly, this weekend I learned that Thai people love number pads because the language has too many characters and it's own numerals, yet most of the time people use/prefer Arabic numerals, so with a number pad they have access to the numbers without having to swap keyboard layouts to English just for numerals.
Postman is nice and ergonomic!

curl is great if you already have the command crafted. My suspicion is that the Python script scraping a web page for URLs/IDs which then ran a curl shell command which saved the resulting document to the file system.

(Of course, I'm talking about Matasano Security / NCC Group ;P. I knew people there when you all worked out of the Dental Fabulous--no clue if you still do--and had some incredibly awkward run-ins involving Apple people, as everyone on all sides wanted to pretend that no one knew anyone else, due to what I'm sure was a ton of NDAs, explicit and implied... it was pretty epic, actually, as one of the people involved was essentially a "double-agent"! Regardless, I'm willing to believe that you had just left before all of these contracts with Apple had happened, and it certainly undermines the premise that you yourself don't need one of these devices to do research, so "point still taken".)
Yeah that read like a lot of baggage, some of the term I'm not even familiar with (SQA, DD?)

As it stands now, we take high level feature design docs from PM, and turn them into service. Everything between that, resources, development, operations are handled entirely in team where everyones title is SDE. This placed a lot of communication, writing, designing on us but I'm not complaining.

I don’t understand the headline. I already run Ubuntu, which is Linux, under Virtual Box, on Mac.
yes, but i’m used to that already :)
When I saw 'Slimbook' I wished for a small pocketable Linux netbook even though I knew Ryzen 4000's thermal profile wouldn't suit such a design.

I would really like AMD to release CPUs which can compete with intel's core M3, which can be used in SBCs or pocketable netbooks like these[1][2]. I feel there is a need gap in this space for a reputed manufacturer or a trusted enthusiast brand to get in.

Why would you want a pocketable Linux pc? one may ask; I'm tired of this always tracking smartphone cellular-apps cluster-X mess. My phone-call usage lifestyle is anyways on-demand(little to no incoming calls), so why not just use a USB GSM module on a pocket Linux pc when needed.

P.S. I'm aware of upcoming pure Linux smartphones, some with cellular-kill switch, I'm a vocal support of these platforms, but it's not available in my country and as I understand they are not ready for a daily driver.

I can't endorse all-guitar-chords.com enough. Arguably, it does need a modern facelift even though I'm fine with the old adobe flash look. But an all-guitar-chords-esque library to port to the UI of your choice is a pretty good idea.
All 15" or larger laptops should use H-class processors; there are just very few Ryzen 15" out so far.

Karatsuba is a beautiful algorithm and as good as it gets for "small" numbers (on the order of a few thousand bits or less). But when you get bigger than that you need the FFT methods, which are impractical for "small" numbers. So the two algorithms complement each other nicely.

Not without significant changes. The Hypervisor.framework API was quite specific to x86.
The KDK has instructions for loading your own kernel extensions on Apple Silicon. This includes making a new writable root snapshot, modifying it, then blessing it for boot. It also includes kernel debugging.

Booting custom kernels is not supported at the moment but as has been noted "the Mac remains the Mac" and booting a custom kernel is allowed on the Mac.

And of course you can disable SIP.

Developer and hobbyist scenarios are an explicitly supported workflow on the Mac. Default security policies need to be the right thing for the vast majority of users but that doesn't mean anyone wants to take away your ability to do all kinds of interesting things to the system.

What's even more surprising is back-end supply chain is also dependent on China. Most people think that their USB cables and computer monitors come from China. But the pill you're taking probably has most of the raw ingredients imported from China. Polymers? China. Lab chemicals? Perfumes? Engine oil? China. Most machines that make these things have parts made in China. Bearings to shafts, motors, wires, adapters, etc. Probably the entire Molex, Keystone, Murata catalog is made in China.
