>Additionally, other movements who are (or feel) oppressed are not relegated to starting from a point of appealing to fellow-citizens: not the Pro-life, or the Pro-choice, or the Pro-2A contingents do this.

You'd actually be surprised. Most Pro-2A folks have given up on any hope for actually having the Supreme Court pick up a case, never mind coming to a positive judgement that makes the regulatory framework less fickle and perilous. Screw up with a gun, have a bad lawyer, and poof, everything becomes a felony. You lose voting rights, and your firearm. (Actually I think felonies are woefully overused as criminal punishments nowadays, period)

You can be turned into a felon in waiting overnight if the ATF deems it so. Few hopes at legislation are realistically attainable (silencers becoming non-NFA because of the hysteria around them, to the benefit of many enthusiast's ears) and other perfectly reasonable legislation everyone wants gets poisoned the minute another rider taking another chunk out of the 2nd Amendment gets attached. Most pro-2A groups have tried to build grass root support through friends and family to dispel the fear and mania around firearm ownership.

There are a lot of subgroups and interests all competing for limited legislative and public awareness resources; everything comes with a poignant attrition cost. Completely pointless changes for change sake like the branch name change are the worst type of wasteful expenditure of human organization. It doesn't get an actual physical result. It doesn't cut prison populations. It doesn't get kids in disadvantaged or resource poor districts a shot at better education or exposure to something new. It just lets someone uncomfortable with the world as they perceive it cathart through (in a tragedy of the common sense) being able to point at something and say, "Look, I did something!" Damned be the consequences or naysayers.
Starlink's effect on astrophotography is overstated. Starlink is in a fairly low orbit, so past twilight, the satellites are in Earth's shadow and aren't visible. The Iridium constellation orbits at 780km, for instance, while Starlink is 550km. During the darkest parts of the night, peak time for observation, the satellites aren't visible.

My guess is that there won't be an appreciable difference in the number of space telescopes. Hubble cost $4.7 before it was launched, and it was just a derivative of keyhole, so even though launch prices are cheap these days (compared to the $550 million it cost per Space Shuttle launch) the cost of a space telescope is still pretty steep.
Yeah the server install instructions are a bit out of date it seems. It doesn't mention you need to run the 'make webapp' task to run webpack and generate the bundled HTML page. It also has you download an old version (0.5) and the docs on the config don't match what's in the repo now (with version 0.6.1).

Anyways, here's a Dockerfile I whipped up that builds and runs a local version configured to use sqlite. No nginx or other stuff, it's just simple localhost config (not production ready):

# Focalboard v0.6.1 requires node 10+
FROM node:15-buster-slim

# Focalboard source to clone.
ARG FOCALBOARD_REPO="https://github.com/mattermost/focalboard.git"
ARG FOCALBOARD_BRANCH="v0.6.1"

# Focalboard v0.6.1 requires make.
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
gcc \
git \
make \
&& rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

# Focalboard v0.6.1 requires go 1.15+
COPY --from=golang:1.16-buster /usr/local/go /usr/local/go
ENV PATH="/usr/local/go/bin:$PATH"

# Clone focalboard.
WORKDIR /opt/focalboard
RUN git clone --depth 1 --branch $FOCALBOARD_BRANCH $FOCALBOARD_REPO .

# Build focalboard.
RUN make prebuild \
&& make webapp \
&& make

# Setup a localhost configuration with sqlite.
RUN echo '{\
"serverRoot": "http://localhost:8000",\n\
"port": 8000,\n\
"dbtype": "sqlite3",\n\
"dbconfig": "/data/focalboard.db",\n\
"useSSL": false,\n\
"webpath": "./webapp/pack",\n\
"filespath": "/files",\n\
"telemetry": true,\n\
"session_expire_time": 2592000,\n\
"session_refresh_time": 18000,\n\
"localOnly": false,\n\
"enableLocalMode": true,\n\
"localModeSocketLocation": "/var/tmp/focalboard_local.socket"\n\
}' > /opt/focalboard/config.json

# Uploaded files are stored here.
VOLUME /files

# Sqlite database is stored here.
VOLUME /data

CMD ["/opt/focalboard/bin/focalboard-server"]

It will need a volume at /files for uploaded file storage, and /data for its sqlite database. It exposes a server on port 8000, and an admin API unix socket on /var/tmp/focalboard_local.socket (read their docs for what it's useful for, like resetting passwords). The Dockerfile should be multiarch, but I can only test on amd64. Low spec hardware (raspberry pi) might struggle a bit with the build as it's a non-trivial go server build, and then production webpack bundle... weird failures might be OOM issues.

Here's an example of a basic build and run, saving the files and db to a local directory:

<copy Dockerfile contents above to file>
docker build -t focalboard .
docker run --rm -p 8000:8000 -v $PWD/files:/files -v $PWD/data:/data focalboard

Access http://localhost:8000 and it will let you create a new user account.

(go wild with the Dockerfile above, I release it in public domain)
I think all the brain matter can be composed by the body itself, indcluding DHA or DHEA. It is just easier to get big quantities from exogenous sources. The world champion of chess, Carlsen, comes from Norway where they produce the most salmon in the world. You can buy salmon everywhere, relatively cheap comparing to other places.

However i am a vegan for 4 years, and i think my brain never worked better. Everything that comes from animal sources, can be substituted by plants, or from endogenous production of the body.

How about our brain got evolved because of our vocal chords? I didn't see anyone considering that hypothesis. I can personally can imitate many animals, birds or whatever. My ancestors, ancient Greeks said that music is the ultimate art. How about we are making music for millions of years, and our brain processing that information, got so much ahead of all the other organisms?
Hey!

So the way I would describe your progression as a student (at least from my experience):

- Traditional ML -> probably can run on your laptop

- Simple DL -> colab is great. Cheapest there is.

- SOTA DL -> you're probably looking at training times well into 10s of hours / days, so you'll need something that can last longer than 12h of colab time. Plus at this point you're probably sophisticated enough that you want to setup your instance once and start/stop it rather than going through setup with colab every time. That's where https://gpu.land/ fits it.

So tl;dr; - absolutely use colab first (it's cheapest), but when you outgrow it, consider gpu.land.
Well, it has to be advertising on apps on a phone. You need more than the cell towers from the phone, if you could get them.

Cuba and North Korea have no traffic layer on Google maps. But there's a few other that don't as well like Yemen and South Korea which is interesting. But I remember watching the protests in Iran on Google maps, which does have the layer.

This would be useful, matching traffic speed to user speed would help with motos and bikes. Other countries might be on Waze or similar.

Or it might only be legal issues their end dealing with data from those countries.

I'm a geologist and I've focused on palaeoclimatology putting an eye on the rate of climate change. I've wrote several articles on international peer-reviewed journals. I can say, basing on 20+years of study and lab/field work, that what is happening is really concerning because human emissions are summing up to natural Milankovitch cycles, altering the rate of climate change with unpredictable (since they are unprecedented) implications for food chain supply and society.
The people making these investing decisions are actually experts in their fields. If you're managing the kind of money that moves these markets, you are a world recognized expert in what you do. These people are not materially being influenced by Ray Dalio's blog posts and books, and Dalio isn't trying to influence them to move markets, because he knows this. This idea is just not at all based in reality.

This sort of thing does actually happen in other domains, like short selling, and maybe you're reasoning by analogy with that activity. But that logic simply does not apply here. The amounts involved are too large, the liquidity moves too slowly, and the people involved have too much expertise. All the stuff Dalio is saying here is already known to them, and far more.

His articles and books are not innovative. They are not designed to educate experts. They are designed to popularize his ideas, among the general public.
I should have been clear: I don't think people's behaviour is remarkable here (I've done the same, with LaTeX years ago, and with many other tools); what I found remarkable is the history / state of affairs, where a finicky tool primarily concerned with the finer points of typesetting (TeX) became the standard tool for dashing off papers (thanks to Lamport and LaTeX I guess) even for people not concerned so much with typesetting. It's as if, say, a samurai sword had become the standard tool for chopping vegetables in the kitchen, and everyone was complaining about the awkward shape, the unnecessary sheath, etc. It's neither the tool's fault nor the users', but… something has gone wrong somewhere.
Has there actually been any research into the disabling of AMD PSP like there has been surrounding me_cleaner?

All I remember regarding AMD PSP was that one motherboard manufacturer showed the option after an update and the other you had to flash a modified BIOS to expose it.

But besides this discovery by a user, there hadn't been any research or verification that this software option does what it claims.

It’s frustrating how UniFi things like the UDM-P require something at Ubiquiti’s end to be up for it to work properly.

You can still use the web gui when Ubiquiti’s stuff falls over, but the app stops working.

The equipment is far from rock solid, unlike the edge range in my experience. However the leaning curve with UniFi is very shallow compared to Edge.

No, performance art. The act of creating that many not-terrible pieces is meaningful on its own.

My wife made the same comment about the saffron! Fortunately we have a seemingly never-ending supply from my parents. I agree that skipping the saffron is fine in a lot of the recipes, especially the stews. (I prefer skipping the rosewater as well, but it definitely does make a noticeable difference in the flavor). In some cases, though, you definitely need copious quantities of saffron, like tahchin, or the chicken served with zereshk polo.

I disagree with you on the onions, though. It's one thing to get them translucent, but that's barely caramelized, if at all. Only once they're nice and brown do you get that subtle sweetness.

Maybe a cannula would be attached at a certain point? I think the real difficulty would be producing nutrients and mixing them into the blood. I am clearly a nonexpert.

I brought this up thinking about the broader "chicken and egg" ethics & scaling problem of tissue growth. Currently the biotissue alternative meats are dependent on fetal bovine serum to get started. A vegan might object to these meats.

I don't personally support these methods, and am just spitballing ideas on the tech side of the aforementioned problem.

Your wording flipped a bit in my head. That exact wording could be said of Europe. There's a whole show and dance to make it seem like it's not, but when everything is about government grants and consortiums, it is.
Lots of red flags there:

- Dev installation guides with credentials to prod.

- Tests that delete everything, not just what they create.

- The obvious of giving access to delete production on the first day.

The Ministry for the Future - Kim Stanley Robinson.

Love every page of it. Its ci-fi, climate fiction, plays 10-20years in the future and tells eye whiteness stories about what people experience during extreme weather events. Plus how the global community is failing to address the crisis. It s mixing storytelling with climate science, sustainability, economics, politics, crypto.

When that also sells for several million people will go mad.

That's neither here nor there. Do you disagree with anything I said? Are you trying to suggest humans are likely to go extinct because of human-caused climate change? If you are, then you'll need some better evidence than appeal to your qualifications.

AZ vaccine is made with a genetically engineered Chimpanzee virus, ChAdOx1 . It makes me uneasy. Zoonotic viruses tend to be more dangerous the closer related the species. There's plenty of human viruses that seem harmless like flu except for rare cases where they kill. How do we know that ChAdOx1 is not one of these?

I would be less worried if they used a fish virus or something. My primary concern is using a virus from such a closely related species. The mRNA approach without a live virus seems safer
i don't know the chips well in the two newer consoles this initial version comes with, but certainly the infamous SID/MOS 6581 has numerous variations. People have been slowly collecting recordings of and characterizing them. There are 2-3 main revs of the chip, plus variations within a batch, from batch-to-batch, and also the two filter capacitors on peoples' motherboards vary. Remember that note only was MOS/Commodore innovating in the logic and multimedia design of the chips, but they also invented the PMOS process IIRC and were steadily developing it.

Note only does that result in variations in cutoff/center frequency of filters, but when the caps overlap in value, for example, a tighter resonance is achieved. Many SID tunes are known to have been overfitted to the composer's machines, and some people even evince the characteristics of the composers' machines and configure their emulators to sound like the composer's computer.
That's exactly the fallacy I was describing. Whether or not you can afford to lose money is completely independent of how much your initial investments cost. You will tend to make more money, provided you have some ability to predict, if you do what you predict is best based on the present and the future, compared to changing your decisions based on the origins of your money.

Supply and demand should normalize when enough capacity has been provided.

The challenge is at least two fold in my opinion, first of all semi conductor fabrication capacity is stretched right now and additional capacity has a significant capital requirement. Secondly it's probably not clear if crypto demand will stick around long enough to warrant additional capacity, the bottom has fallen out of it before.
Great questions.

1) There's a finite capacity in the high 10s of GPUs. Currently the service is utilized at <10% capacity, so there's a lot of room to grow before we run out. If that was to happen (or even if we get to 50%), I could go and request more and (hopefully) expand the capacity quickly.

2)When building gpu.land I specifically wanted to make it safe for users to upload / store sensitive data. Of course the service is more geared towards hobbyists / researchers, just because that's an easier market to reach for a solo dev - but there is nothing at the technical level that sacrifices data privacy. For example, data on instances is encrypted both at rest and in transit within the DC + you and only you have SSH keys to your instance and nobody else can access it. Check out our security & privacy section in our FAQ - https://gpu.land/faq

2) So for 6 years he could have had his team chase bigger profits like Wachovia, Bear Stearns, et al by making risky bets on MBS but didn’t.

3) he’s not responsible for the consumer banking side?

Undefined doesn't mean contradiction in the sense that anything becomes possible. It just means it can be defined however you want, and if you choose an unsound definition then that reflects on you. Think about the history of how X3J11 was able to get people like UNIVAC and EDVAC to agree on the C standard even though they had wildly different ideas on how things like how the sign bit should work. The only way to forge a compromise is to simply say, OK, the standard won't broach that topic, keep doing what you're doing.
