You’re seriously trying to justify ANY harassment by saying they took a poll of popular names and then chose one the 4chan trolls didn’t like? Who cares if they chose the least popular name? That’s their choice. Grow up, you don’t always get your way, that’s part of life.
Also why the create_before_destroy argument exists. Often you have to apply one or the other to a resource, or it simply falls into an infinite loop of creating and deleting the same resource.
It's funny because you don't understand it?
But those are all examples of data collection working fine, though, and people not listening to the data because their anecdotes went the wrong way.

FiveThirtyEight predicted a 28.6% chance of a Trump victory: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/ This is a number far greater than zero - it is, for comparison, more likely than flipping two coins and them both coming up heads, or drawing a random card from a deck and having it be diamonds.

Opinion polling of the 2019 Conservative Party leadership election showed Boris Johnson favored to win: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion_polling_for_the_2019_C...

Opinion polling on Brexit showed that it clearly could have gone either way, with a narrow margin between the two options: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion_polling_for_the_United...

I'm less familiar with Australian politics, but assuming you mean the 2013 election, opinion polls showed the Liberals were clearly in the lead: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion_polling_for_the_2013_A...

If people look at data that says "28.6% chance of winning" and they choose to read it as "0% chance of winning," that's not a problem with the way anyone's measuring anything, that's a problem with people trying to treat data as if it's an anecdote.
Or Why not find some leaked windows/office source code and try to train a model to reconstruct microsoft software, then open source it? This surely must be legal, they're doing it themselves after all :D

Does one need to remember all of their life to be happy?

Maybe the details just get spottier with bigger gaps, but you still remember the big events and when you need more details your Google neural implant tells you more. I'm far from 1,000 but I can't remember every detail of my life, but I don't think it interferes with my quality of life.
I'm not the person you're replying to, but one strong reason is that the global reach and standardization of copyright law is far broader than the global reach and standardization of the fair use exception. A single non-US country in which GitHub Copilot is used in a way that would be infringing without the US fair use exception, and outside the scope of any such exception in that law, would be enough to cause GitHub/MS a legal hassle. There could well be more than one such country.

I can strongly second this. It is an amazing pop sci book. It tours history, it has the medical drama, it digs deep where other books just skimp the surface. You come away in awe of the ingenuity of this disease.

Great book.
We also ran into issues with the CDK, that it errors out if the resource already exists and was not created with the CDK. We end up using Ansible for the DynamoDB. Though Ansible can't deploy to LocalStack. So, it seems that we are still in a world where you have to use a couple different IaC tools depending on the needs.
Yeah we would call this Data Engineer (likely Senior level or up for someone that has had experience building multiple data warehouses) plus the DevOps/SRE work required to stitch all the architecture together
Neat. The name "EleutherAI" comes from the Greek word "ελευθερία", which means "freedom".

I really enjoy the interplay of "ία" with "AI".

I knew nothing about this project, but seeing their interesting name has made me open that link above in a new tab to read later.
Thank you for the information.

The Register article [1] says that it was Sneedacity, apparently a Simpsons reference.

This is, I think it's fair to say, a worse name than the one which was chosen.

Emphasis mine. Consumers and Repulicans would be happy until Republicans start weaponizing Big Tech to overthrow democracy and prolong COVID. Then consumers at least would cease to be happy.
We really need an alternative to YouTube. But

> When you publish with Streambus, you create a website, on your own domain name. Reach your audience over RSS on the podcast apps they already have on their phone.

This is the problem with most other current alternatives: no discoverability. YouTube has no serious competitors because it has significantly more viewers and creators. If I use Streambus, how will I get others to see my content? If I want to find new stuff on Streambus, where do I see others' streams?

IMO any serious contender for YouTube would need:

- People using it
- Decent recommendation algorithm - for all the hate YouTube gets, I've seen worse
- Decent moderation. YouTube is too severe, yes, but you really don't want hate speech and shady stuff on your site, and especially recommended. It will scare everyone away. And copyrighted stuff will get you into legal trouble
Isn't this what basically everyone does anyway pre-DoH? Most people don't run their own recursive resolvers.
Actually, SMT8 P8 and P9 is documented, though it seems rare. Our HPC systems are only SMT4, anyhow.

Yes, you can just install most of at least Debian, Fedora, RHEL, at least, though it needs an "alt" kernel on RHEL7 P9. There are a few things which haven't been ported, mainly due to assembler, I guess. (PRoot and DMTCP are two I know.) Even x86 SIMD intrinsics will largely work, if not necessarily very efficiently.
> The puzzle, per the authors, is how these gene regulatory networks that initially evolved to produce flowers were able to change so drastically. So co-author Eugenio Azpeitia and several colleagues combined in vivo experiments with 3D computational modeling of plant development to study the molecular underpinnings of how buds form in cauliflower (both edible cauliflower and the Romanesco variant).

This was a pleasantly interesting read in a field I know very little about.
Do not believe his lies. Here is what actually happened:

>some web developer named cookiengineer on GitHub forks Audacity despite it being written in C

>makes a poll for how the fork should be named as a GitHub issue where you vote with reactions

>someone suggests "Sneedacity" and cookie adds it to the poll

>anon that suggested sneedacity makes thread on /g/ telling people to vote for it

>people vote

>a couple idiots spam sneed

>cookiengineer turns out to be mentally ill

>claims that 4chan is harassing him

>makes it sound like all 200,000+ active 4chan users are after his life

>posts on Twitter and HackerNews

>claims that 4chan found his phone number and address

>nobody posted about that in any of the Sneedacity threads on /g/

>claims that he was mass-called and got spammed SMS on his Pinephone™

>first says on Twitter that he's glad his Pinephone™ didn't crash

>then when a well-disguised /g/ troll asks him on his HackerNews thread the list of phone numbers that spammed him (pretended that he wanted to block them on his phone), he said that his Pinephone™ couldn't handle all the calls and SMS and kept crashing so he "had to reflash the device"

>actively contradicts himself

>deletes his tweets when people show that he's contradicting them

>sneedacity devs actually fixing bugs instead of bickering with themselves, audacium imports the fix to their own fork, still not fixed in cookie's fork

>steps down of his Audacity fork, claiming that it's for his family's safety

>asks people to mass-report the Sneeds-Feed-and-Seed/sneedacity GitHub repo (/g/ ended up making its own Audacity fork) and its contributors, which is a violation of the GitHub Community Guidelines

>claims that 4chan stabbed him with a butterfly knife (no joke)

>reporter wants to take cookie's side, decides against it after talking with cookie due to insufficient evidence

>sneedacity won, a second poll was made, sneedacity won again, a third poll was made with a special exception for sneedacity and sneed-related suggestions

>mods in HN, reddit and the GH repo actively deleting, flagging and (in github's case) banning users that go against cookie's narrative

>FUD and misinfo easily gets past normalfags who get their news from said sites and certain news outlets

>devmuskelon (started the SIMP fork) and ishimotoshinobu (both active during the early hours of the fork) shadowbanned by github, PR/issues comments and threads wiped clean without a trace (commits show their names as "user")

There are (AFAIK) 3 cannabis derived products that the FDA has approved. Given the large cost required to get a new patentable drug through the FDA, it doesn't come as a surprise that no one's willing to foot that bill.

What the DEA (a totally different governmental organization with different motivations and biases) thinks about marijuana is reprehensible, however.
> Otherwise you might as well look for "Tarzan" with a dumb string search.

Yes, this was sort of the idea as well (also see sibling response). I'd just as soon have 2 lines of code rather than a regex.
I have no reason to believe Hölzle is particularly corrupt or that he obtained entry in a way that's more corrupt than the banal "paid really diligent people to work the bureaucracy to his advantage". NZ's tolerance for personal bribery of officials is very low.
A "back of the napkin" calculation seems to indicate there is no mass exodus. On mobile, but here is the typical annual CA pop change stats for the past decade, give or take:

--Incoming--
- 400K domestic immigrants[1]
- 180-200K international immigrants[2]
- 450K births[4]
Subtotal: ~1.1M

--Outgoing--
- 600K domestic emigrants[1]
- 250K deaths[4]
- ?? intl emigrants (anyone know?)
Subtotal: ~850K

Typical annual net change: +250K (California grew 2.4M from 2010-2020[3])

California shrank in 2020 for the first time in decades seemingly because:

- 50-80K excess deaths
- 180-200K less intl immigration
- 50K fewer births

That's already a loss of 300K people as a one-time event, and the state is down 450K from a typical year. It's easy to come up with another 150K, it's a trivial not "mass exodus" number.

But possibly a lot of those who left were missed in statistics.

Edit: learning to format...
I don't agree. The startup is guaranteeing that the customer won't pay more than one month's rent, which they very much can control. The company is on the hook in cases where they can't find a replacement, but that's not the customer's problem.

It's very possible that the service is priced too low in order to get traction, but there's nothing inherently unsustainable about taking on risk (with a reasonable cap no less); it just comes down to what the company's placement rate ends up being.
Wages are a huge part of it, but right now these companies are trying to go from < 25% capacity to > 100% capacity in just a few weeks. Companies got used to being in an employers market for the last decade or more to an employee market overnight.

Plus there are a ton of other factors affecting employees that I really wish reporters would research more. Just a few the ones I've heard:

* Got a different (often better) job

* Went back to school full-time to get or finish a degree

* Lack of transportation - sold their car during COVID and can't afford to buy one now

* Lack of childcare - can't find or afford childcare now (demand is pushing up prices there too)

* Staying home with the kids - after being forced to do it some people decided staying home to raise the kids is a better life and they could afford to do it

* Unemployment is still paying better than any job they can find

* Retired - some people were putting it off and others decided to retire early rather than go back to work

* Long COVID - still sick or physically impaired months later

* Dead - COVID or other causes

Long-COVID is the one I would personally like to see statistics around. I know a couple people in their 30s and 40s that are still unable to function normally 6+ months after being seriously sick with COVID.

Yes, obviously habitat destruction, chemical exposure, etc. are bad. But the sudden, broad emergence of a new set of symptoms means that something new is happening besides business as usual.

In this scenario, saying "habitat destruction" and leaving it at that is like a coroner saying "cause of death: stopped being alive." It's true, but not useful.
There was a brief time before the rise of YouTube when all the independently-hosted web shows published RSS feeds. I had a player program that would download them for me during the day with RSS.

> I'm more-or-less waiting for the "blank" in: "blank" is to Python what Regex is to Perl.

This will sound like a forced joke but I genuinely didn't understand your phrase. I got stuck re-reading several times the "blank" in: "blank" part, but my mental language regex wasn't matching the expression.

I think the bug is caused by a bogus quote that causes a bad parameter expansion. My regex engine parses this better: the "blank" in: "blank is to Python what Regex is to Perl"

Off by one errors...

The Google books example really misses the point, one of the reasons why the judges considered it fair use was because it was pointing back to the original sources (and thus potentially increasing publishers earnings).

Copilot does none of that. If all the ML companies are so sure this is fair use I encourage them to train an AI on Disney movies to generate short cartoon snippets based on some description. There sure would be a court case.
you should have a look at terraform workspace feature.
The correct analogy would not be a color grading service but instead a service that produces supplementary content for movies their subscribers make.
Hi! The founder here.

I use GPT-3 to generate synonyms for all of the emojis.

And yes, it’s simple to have a list of synonyms. But is it easy? Calculate the time anyone takes to write synonyms for a particular emoji, and multiply it by the number of emojis (thousands). Not to mention the energy that people spend for it.

For the 2nd question – it’s a limited price deal, and it’ll go up in a few hours.
Say, your record is 10 push ups. You try to do 11. That's how you improve. You might actually be able to do 40 in a group session or 131 if your life depended on it, but there's no record of that.

But that way you end up targeting 211 in a month which at some point becomes impossible.

If you aim for 100% you'll never improve so it's only natural that all managers put you above expectations. However, instead of pushing you to that 40, some learn that by triggering your survival instincts, they can push you over 100. They think it's growth but it destroys you long term.

The other problem is some people know they can do 10 tasks in 8 hours then take on 11 tasks, and end up doing it 9 hours. This leads to some kind of expectations creep and before you know it, you're working day and night but your ability isn't improving.

So the survival mechanism is to do 8, which the manager pushes up to 9 or 10. So to achieve balance, you have external forces pulling you up while internal forces pulls you down. But this wrecks you internally, and you become dependent on external pressure.
I wonder if the exodus is true in our personal or group bubble. Two theories:

Tech workers who can work remotely night be more likely to leave but make up a small part of the population of the entire state.

I also wonder if every cohort in SF/SV goes through a pattern where many people they worked with leave the area as they get older. So many people I've worked with there left over the last ~5 years as their lifes changed in things other than tech became important. In many cases this move was somewhat involuntary and driven by high cost of housing and other necessities like day care. So there always might be people who feel like everyone is leaving.
These details are fascinating and non-obvious. Every little tool or part you have to use to work with even 15-year old chip fab processes is under NDA.

It's hard to come up with a good analogy ... it's like you need to write your own serial driver for your new open-source programming language to do any I/O, because you can't call any libraries or OS syscalls because they're all NDA, even on a 15+ year old computer/OS.
Then fork it and use whatever name you want. That is not an excuse to assault a person with a butterfly knife, wtf.

What you describe only affects citizens (but surely he's a citizen by now). Edit to add: and green card holders who had their green card for 8+ years without naturalizing. The green card would generally be voided by moving to NZ for a year; it might help get away with _future_ appreciation of assets but of course not any _past_ appreciation.

I think weight loss is an area where giving advice is a bad idea unless it’s specifically asked for. It’s not like it’s hard to figure out what to do, it’s just incredibly difficult to do it.

If I were asked, i’d say that all diets that produce a calorie deficit are similarly effective and to try different things until you hit on the plan you can see yourself following for the rest of your life (at maintenance calories). Lots of people lose weight, maintaining is the biggest challenge.
Unless Trump is challenging the terms of service that he had to agree to when getting his account, this is largely a non-issue. Trump _agreed_ that Facebook/Twitter could ban him whenever he crossed their usage policy, which they can alter at any time.

Essentially, Trump agreed that they had the right to ban him before he posted anything to their services.

So sure, the government may be able to force people to host things they don't want to, but I don't think the government will force anybody to break a contract that both parties agreed to in this case.

Whether humans are kosher is actually debated in traditional Jewish sources: https://judaism.stackexchange.com/a/101466

No Rabbi approves of eating humans; it is more a technical debate about whether it is explicitly prohibited by the rules, versus "not strictly prohibited but ewwww... so don't do it"
> acknowledge something to be technically allowed according to the divine rules, but they forbid it anyway, either because they felt there was some societal benefit to doing so, or because they felt that adding an additional prohibition would prevent people from accidentally breaking the divine rule

There are of also cases where a societal benefit outweighed new knowledge about biology. Spontaneous generation meant that it's ok to kill lice on the Sabbath and eat fish with worms in it (which nearly all fish do) so long as the worms are of the kind that hatch within the fish. Well lice don't spontaneously generate and the worm in question lives outside the fish, but are you really gonna tell people to not kill lice any day of the week and totally get rid of part of their diet? It's a fun bit of tradition I think.

Many of these articles are about tourist towns that have had an influx of new residents and/or increased seasonal populations (in this case Hood River, Oregon and Lake of the Ozarks). I read an identical article yesterday about Ketchum, Idaho and last week about Telluride, CO. In such cases, the problem is two fold. There has been an increase in the total need for workers to serve the additional residents and visitors. At the same time, the supply of worker housing has gone down (and prices up). Raising wages is not enough to balance supply and demand since the housing market does not adjust quickly enough. I sometimes wonder if these towns are economically sustainable -- wages can never rise quickly enough across all necessary occupations to establish equilibrium with the outside money forcing workers out.
