I didn't mean 'magic' (I know it's not that) - I just meant to imply that I think of AI as a 'function' not a 'lookup'.

Inputs -> Outputs not Search -> Response

Like if you train AI on a small dataset, it feels like what it's doing afterwords is a 'function' or 'algorithm' using what is in the end some arcane algebra.

But if you train on all the data in the world, with a trillion parameters ... well ... I kind of feel that 'all the data' is in an AI-style datastructure, that we are 'querying' with AI.

But that's just an observers abstraction.
Fiction that flaunts the tropes are a good example of “you have to know the rules before you can break them”.

These tropes aren’t new inventions, they go back into thousand year old myths, so it does seem like they really do appeal to the human brain, ie the Campbell monomyth/hero’s journey.
Great book and helps explain so much of emergent culture amount younger generations, particularly in institutions like universities. His coauthor, Greg Lukianoff is president of FIRE, the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundation_for_Individual_Ri...). He also authored their guide to free speech on campus (https://www.thefire.org/research/publications/fire-guides/).

I don't care if Apple spends it on research and development or prostitutes. It isn't about how they manage their money. It's about their right to set their own B2B pricing. EA can accept the payments, but Apple still has the right to charge them to operate their business on top of the Apple ecosystem.
Except they're not useless. They simply have a different use than heating the home. You may not agree with the use case, but that doesn't change the fact that they work fine for what they were designed to do.

This is always my complaint about posts like this. I read them looking for the killer feature to make me consider switching from bash and it's always stuff bash does natively or with a one line alias.
Both balding and infection severity (e.g. flu) are related to testosterone levels. That's probably the common causal factor here.

I've never had that experience with Amazon UK, they've always demanded that the broken / damaged item be returned.

On one occasion when I had to return an item I ended up £30 out of pocket because it had to go by courier instead of post, due to length. I had to argue with their customer support to obtain recompense despite it having been them who told me to send it courier. The item was only worth £80.

Nowadays I just use Amazon as a price baseline but shop elsewhere.

Yeah, I was just about to suggest embedding the code in a PNG text chunk: http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/book/chapter11.html#png.ch11.d...

Twitter etc should really already have standardised on a way to store the ALT text in an image so it only ever needs to entered once.

Even GIF has support for text in a couple of different forms.

( Although I learned something new about PNG's support for GIF's text support here: http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/book/chapter11.html#png.ch11.d... )

( I've spent far too long reading the GIF spec in relation to my project that adds audio to GIFs: http://audiogif.rancidbacon.com :) )

BBC News: Facebook blocks Australian users from viewing or sharing news
I do think it’s important to let children wander and roam unsupervised. The lack of open play and self direction is a malaise that I've anecdotally seen the effects of in younger employees entering the workforce. Like all things, balance is important. It’s okay to let them wander off while also teaching them to be alert and to trust their gut instinct when they sense danger (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Gift_of_Fear).
> Checking programmatically that text is about "bird" or "Twitter" is very easy. Checking that an SVG is about "bird" or "Twitter" is very hard.

That depends on what you want:

If you know what twitter is, then yes, just saying "twitter" is more efficient than a whole SVG file describing the twitter logo.

But if you don't know what twitter is, nor what its logo looks like, SVG is a very efficient way to describe the logo exactly. If you can have it rendered to your screen that's optimal, but if not, you can take it as instructions to redraw the logo yourself and still get an accurate impression of what the twitter logo looks like.

I that sense, "twitter" and the SVG of the twitter logo are both text, but they don't have the same meaning.

As for the granite, it is indeed one situation where just drawing the plain SVG logo is more effective, but SVG would still be viable. Over telephone, on the other hand, you just can't transmit an image. You can only attempt to describe it, and the more detailed you get with that, the closer you come to just using a code very similar to SVG.

The NYT is a pretty crappy newspaper. I subscribed to it for years, then I subscribed to both it and the WSJ for a few months. If you saw a guy on BART with the NYT and the WSJ every morning, it was likely me.

WSJ's Opinion page is total crap but the rest is good. NYT's Business page is okay and their Arts&Culture are good, but the news is fucking garbage. Their rare centerfold articles are great but everything else is trash news. Just the lowest quality of journalism.

The WSJ reports much more accurately on way more issues than the NYT. It's not about the politics. They wrote about subversion attempts against the CA EPA and the laws in CA keeping the coast free. The NYT is just a lot more like those American news anchors you see who have this obvious slant to their reporting.

If you're foreign, you know what I'm talking about.
That already works fine, the dish is switching sats incredibly fast and is tracking multiple sats at a time.

The limitation with the cells is that currently not all cells have the same amount of sats above them so they will not claim that guarantee anything.

Some people have tested that and it worked fine if you move it.

They will likely have a different terminal or plan for mobile service, would be my assumption.
Why couldn’t intersatellite laser links have similar capacity to fiber? In principle, if not practice?

I believe USA has more money than the broke USSR did

I highly recommend not doing this - I was shocked to see this article because I'm surprised its _still_ rolling - 2 or 3 years ago I was in your spot, and I would have wasted a ton of money and acquired a much darker view of the world.

Much like TSLA, it'll be 10% of its size eventually, but who knows when or why, its teflon until it isn't.
The longterm investment model century to century is "up to 7% is reasonable" and my pension investment trys to keep in a window of 5% to 8% class returns across its subtypes, except for cash. Anything above 8 is pretty much always risk. Its there. Its never sustainable in a single asset and guessing which is.. gambling.

Before banks, you kept gold with jewellers deposits and the risk was a king grabbed it. They often did. There was no interest on deposit for years. You paid storage costs!

I may be wrong but I believe cash rate is always less. Always. And, in that sense, for much of history the interest rate was low. Seriously low. This is why usery exists as a crime in Christian tradition and why the entire history of Jews in the west in past times centres on their role in arbitrage, and moneylenders: nobody else could do it.

Islamic lending demands complex preagreed return on investment for the same "usery is evil" reason. This model persists.

I'm not really saying much except interest rates in my lifetime have been zero, and have been 24%. For much of history they've been far closer to zero and for all your MMT and neoliberal economics, that's just how it is. There is no strong necessary linkage to interest rate and wealth or investment or employment. I mean in the sense of a one way lever. It's more complicated.

I do believe that zero could last for centuries, although hidden rates would exist just like usery existed.

Money is a rationing mechanism for society. Arguably, even under communism longterm you'd need something like money,and indeed in prisons money emerges as condoms or cigarettes or pot noodles. To make things work.
The reality is that lots of places are actively shutting down coal & nuclear already and are replacing them with wind, solar, and batteries without blackouts being a thing. All that takes is money. And even that is changing as wind and solar bids now routinely undercut everything else on the market. That's basically driving the transition in the most unlikely places (like oil and gas producing Texas or coal producing Virginia).

Many places elsewhere have all but completed the transition to renewables and are well on their way to 100% renewable grids early next decade. That's not some fantasy, it's basically largely past tense in a lot of places not plagued by blackouts with any kind of frequency.
Urban population density is the only thing that is keeping our(US) carbon footprint from going through the roof imo. I'd much rather have people live in high density buildings within walking distance to most things. Sewers, electricity lines, gas, roads, water is all shared.
That's a nifty idea!

Maybe without lower scale and with the semicolon:

"Stealing" the equals sign for this purpose feels a bit risky, but maybe it isn't.

Hey! I'm the founder. I have been working full-time on Buxfer for the past several years now and am 100% committed to making it the best-in-class software for the specific market segment we serve.

That said, we are a small team and not VC backed. We are just a profitable, steadily growing business. So while that means we are not doubling our userbase every few months, it also means we are not likely to flip the business or flame out chasing some crazy growth targets.

I am a hacker at heart, and so that reflects in the product (for better or worse). We tend to be not as good at things like marketing, user communities, help videos, etc. (definitely trying to improve upon it, but we won't win awards in this department anytime soon) but we are super good at one thing -- making an ultra-powerful personal finance software for people I like to call "power users". People who want more control (e.g. custom rules) and flexibility (e.g. multiple currencies) and who like to plan for the future, not just look at the past. I myself am one such power user, and building a product that scratches your own itch is always a rewarding experience.

I personally still have a lot of motivation to continue working on this product for several more years. Largely because I feel there is so much more yet to be done for the product to reach its full potential, but also because as I have matured, I have found myself more aligned with the bootstrapped / sustainably growing kind of businesses as opposed to the "go big or go home" ones (big fan of Rob Walling, Microconf, etc.) So I am not looking for a big exit or anything like that, just enjoying the journey I'm on.

Hope that helps clear some things up! Please feel free to email me (first name at buxfer dot com). I'll be happy to share more details and we can even setup a Zoom meeting if you'd like.
I think they meant in the context of 5G communication which is true. There isn't a competitive Western source of this technology which is why people was bitting Huawei in the first place.

But it's more complicated than that because a lot of patients of 5G is own by American companies. Technology is a very messy tangled web of cooperation and competitiveness.
Finding the first job in tech, when you don’t have any previous experience to show, is not easy. I was in the same boat for a long time. I assume what OP is trying to do is to find an entry-level job with the intention to move up from there.

Also, when you’re broke, you often don’t have time to look for a good position, because you need money right now, so you take up whatever job is on offer, which leaves you with no time/energy to look for something better, and you can’t take the risk to just quit and follow your dreams because you don’t have any safety net. You can easily spend years this way.

Of course, all this would not sound great in a job interview. That’s why, when I interview people, I tend to focus more on the attitude, personality, and actual skills of a person, and avoid asking questions about past odd jobs, prolonged unemployment periods, and the like.

We all need to start somewhere. OP just happens to be starting now.

Good luck, OP.

I'm not sure but what I've read is that they keep part of the fee that usually goes toward rewards or points in other cards. I don't mind this at all because I think they are providing an amazing and much needed service that I've been wanting for years. Their apps and web extensions are also great. Last time I had to cancel a card because some website got hacked it took me weeks to resolve and change it everywhere I needed. I would happily pay let them have all of the rewards to not go through that again. Sorry if I sound like a shill, I swear I have no relationship with them. I just really like the service.

CR is irresponsible for issuing ranked scores while saying in the fine print that these scores aren't actually recommendations.

That they didn't foresee comma.ai using their recommendation in marketing only makes them that much more irresponsible.

There probably are routes where RTT time for Starlink is faster than the RTT over a dedicated fibre optic link. Fibre optic links need to follow geographical and political constraints, which these do not.

These satellites are at an altitude of 560km, so it's not hard to imagine there are some places where it could be faster to use Starlink (say Spain - Turkey). You also need to consider the speed of light in the atmosphere is faster than fibre optic cables by around 40%. However if there is a need for something like that, then it's probably already going via satellite.

For the average consumer these will probably be faster for Western US - EU just because there are less hops and less companies involved (as I understand the backhaul isn't yet going between satellites).
They are orbiting at 550 km, 1200km was the original constellation plan that was later changed.

I really hope people respect that tradition and put aside the need to “conquer” nature. I worry that as these traditions and ancient cultures die out as modern homogeneity erases them, people will lose that sense of respect for what came before and break those unspoken rules.
I thought about this a while after this, and yeah, I'd agree. Although as far as scheduling and IPC goes, I'd say this is less about "raw performance" as taking a chunk of CPU cycles and better utilizing it. So a VM running under Linux/KVM could experiment there in useful ways.

There are still new/tweaked ways to manage/divide raw hardware, though. Stuff like trying to reduce UI latency which would be hard to do through a PV interface and needs bare metal.
