Even with your understated numbers, with everything being as worse as possible, you ended up with a pretty decent wage for 5 evenings of work.

In reality, half of the US population lives in a state with a regular minimum wage for waiters (California, New York, Washington, and a bunch of other states), and the other half averages $5/hr which is $7800/yr if you work 30 hours a week. Also there's cash tips that aren't reported on taxes. And like others have said, you're estimating $30/person at a steakhouse which is TGI Fridays prices.

Put that together, and you're looking at the equivalent of six figures pre-tax for 5 nights of work, with no email at night or on-call. Sounds pretty good to me.

This post shows MD but it misses the forest for the trees. To riff on the blog post linked below, “what if you have an Onyx holding a hard stone executing Earthquake in a Sandstorm against a Flygon with the ability Hover?”

The answer is that rules should be encoded in data structures and not in the type system. The type system is for structuring how your program runs not its logical correctness. If you have a coworker who, upon hearing that you have a new business requirement, says “oh goodie I’ll reconfigure our whole type system!” please report them to the relevant local authorities.

If you aren’t writing code that handles types as 1st class objects like a parser, please reconsider using this pattern. If you are writing a parser, this isn’t even the fancy way to do it anymore, but at least you’re holding the book upside right.

Yep, and when those stores and restaurants actually close down (just watch louis rossmanns videos about NYC), this means even more workers and even less workplaces, driving wages down.

And unemployment has to be paid by someone too...
McDonald's fryers are generally just standard commercial fryers with preset temperatures and timers. The only custom part is the (separate and standalone) machine that measures out standardized portions of fries into baskets, and while I'm sure they'd call it a trade secret it's really just a big plastic hopper and some sort of weight sensor arrangement.
When I was a kid, sending kids to "jail" for the night was a great way to scare the hell outta them in the name of making sure they understood the gravity of the mistake they'd made crossing a certain line. Where I grew up, the police were always in cahoots with the parents to ensure that the kid got a right good unforgettable lesson outta the experience. Sounds like the sorta thing these stupid kids need to me.
>A swatting incident—the act of calling 911 to report a fake crime so armed responders storm an address—was organized on Discord in an attempt to intimidate Herring into handing over his valuable @tennessee Twitter handle.

That the police in the US would stom an address - in full SWAT gear and attitude nonetheless - because somebody "called", is one of the most amusing examples of the incompetency and lunacy of the police system.
Swatting is definitely a thing in Canada.
Yup. This smells (no pun intended) of money laundering to me. Any auction for an obscurely collectible item is perfect for money laundering, since there’s a huge amount of plausible deniability in someone’s honest willingness to pay such an exorbitant sum.

More concretely, let’s say Joe Criminal has $1.56MM in ill-gotten gains. He proceeds to sell an obscurely collectible item in his possession at auction. Via a shell company/individual, he anonymously bids it up to $1.56MM, and pockets the money minus any auctioneer fees.

As long as the authorities don’t investigate the identity of this anonymous bidder, Joe Criminal has successfully laundered his $1.56MM. And as long as the authorities think that some crazy collector truly believes that an original Mario 64 cartridge is worth $1.56MM (as would also be the case for other obscure collectibles), it’s unlikely this particular transaction will raise their eyebrows. It’s not like there’s an army of appraisers out there who could fairly value this cartridge.
I suggest that discussion of this story wait till it is reported by a publication more of us have heard of.
Dumb kids are everywhere. Punishment is not harsher. And yet swatting seems to be nearly exclusively American problem.
There's a way to save memory by sacrificing .hashCode() runtime performance (on the assumption that most objects never get hashed) by keeping a separate lookup table for hashcodes, at the cost of having to do the indirect lookup. I don't recall which VM used that technique. There's also fun tricks like rewriting/optimizing the object header during a copying/compacting garbage collection.
Ah yes, the instructions should say "Run this in your console (Do not paste into file)" or similar.

I really appreciate the quick test to show whether this problem exists for you.
Won't they have to pay tax on that though?
checking the location of thee caller. If its not coming from somewhere nowhere near the location of the supposed shooting maybe be a little suspicious. 9-1-1 calls are supposed automatic location identification as part of the E-9-1-1 system.
Caller ID records are neither reliable, universally available, nor hard to spoof.

Typically you have stockfish source code, and human readable model file with weights. Build system and compiler bakes them together to produce binary. Inside the binary, the NNUE weights are no more readable than the source code, which is to say none at all (unless you have reverse engineering expertise). If providing the final binary counted, then there would be no such thing as GPL violation?
>The police also did not “storm” anything. The homeowner went outside with a gun in hand and they de-escalated the situation without “storming” or firing any shots.

In this case perhaps, but the parents' comment wasn't particular to this instance but generic.

And there are tons of cases where SWATing actually happened, unecessary force was deployed, and so on, sometimes even captured on camera...

>I don’t really understand what you want the police to do in these situations where they receive calls about gun crimes in progress.

The same procedure that is followed in civilized countries would be a good start.
Social Media. Pretty much it. Toxic in a bottle, for profit. Well that and inflation.
A standalone commercial fryer unit meant to be run 24/7 might cost you $1000-$2000 or so if you don't want any special features in it.
Yes, but not action at a distance. There's no violation of relativity in MWI.

Well, I'm the CEO lol so we have an advantage there.

> The problem is that the recent security company purchases suggest that it costs roughly $100 per month per user to have just basic security.

Totally, this is a huge issue to me. I strongly believe that we need to start getting TPMs and hardware tokens into everyone's hands, for free - public schools should be required to give it to students when they tell them to turn in homework via some website, government organizations/ anyone who's FEDRAMP should have it mandated, etc. It's far too expensive today, totally agreed.

edit: Wait, per month? No no.

> We don't need better crypto.

FWIW the kicker with yubikeys isn't really anything with regards to cryptography, it's the fact that you can't extract the seed and that the FIDO2 protocols are highly resistant to phishing.
If one wants to launder money, creating an eyebrow raising sale gathering press headlines and bafflement from insiders is not a great way.

You want to be under the radar for money laundering. Not impossible, but another explanation seems more likely. (I don’t mean an innocent explanation necessarily)

Whoops. Forgot to include the https in the link. That always gets me. Thanks for the heads up
Well, all businesses run operations dif and have dif margins, so let's not forget that. I run a recruiting company. From our data a few things have popped up. First, people want higher wages in the lower wage industries. They are asking for $15-20 per hour. Second, lot of these people don't want to go back to the same labor jobs they had - they want to do something different. the problem with this is that they want to get paid more than they were making before for jobs in which they have no exp. For those that think the worker knows they can get more money, it's not the majority. They only know if someone told them. A lot of low wage workers who risked it and stuck it out during the pandemic are upset they really didn't get wage increases. Their employers sure didn't offer it to them. And now they want to quit and get their benefits like the rest. There is a lot going on here. One group though that does want to work are the teenagers. Issue is that they want $20 per hour...this fiasco is probably going to continue for a while.
Seems like they removed Ketamine from the version that was passed, contrary to what the MAPS article says

What is the source of truth? (I typically lean towards the legislature, but often times their websites are not updated most accurately for bills in progress)
The exclusions on page 3 are:

* Self-defense
* Gang violence
* Drug violence
* Contained residential or domestic disputes
* Controlled barricade/hostage situations
* Crossfire as a byproduct of another ongoing criminal act
* An action that appeared not to have put other people in peril

None of these would describe a situation in which "a guy is going around killing people".
A simple problem for which Julia is a better choice than Python
If we try this with PyTorch:

import torch
x = torch.randn(4000, 4000, device='cuda:0')
y = torch.randn(4000, 4000, device='cuda:0')
z = torch.einsum('ij,jk->ijk', x, y).relu().sum(dim=1)

we will likely run out of memory, because the tensor product of x and y consists of 4000 x 4000 x 4000 = 64 billion floating-point values, and we must evaluate the relu() function on each of them before summing them over index j (dim 1).

And we can't solve this problem with a nice for-loop that iterates over 64 billion elements in Python -- it would be waaaaay too slow. Python and PyTorch force us to drop down to a fast, low-level, compiled language.

The same is true for TensorFlow and other similar "vectorized" frameworks. Our choices are to store 64 billion floating-point values simultaneously in memory, or drop down to a low-level language. No fun.

But solving this in Julia is trivial: We just write the loops.
Notfallwarnung Im Mobilfunknetz and Cell Broadcast
Crazy that this is being downvoted. The cops were responding to a call about a armed gunman actively killing. If they respond slowly or tepidly and people die, then they get yelled at. If they respond quickly and decisevly and they have been lied to, they get yelled at. They are not omnipotent.
If people don't even know what those commands mean, why are they even presented as a step? The installer could do both things for them.
In which country will armed police not show up if an ongoing shooting is called in?
Whoa, who said anything about fraud? Certainly not me. Pure coincidence!

The fact Wata Games doesnt publish population lists, like any other legit grading agency https://www.psacard.com/pop is simply an ordinary oversight on their part, and surely has no influence on the prices.
How can you realistically prevent them without incidentally dropping genuine calls now and then (your rate of swat calls will be extremely low in comparison).

Also, making a fake phonecall to the police and describing a graphic situation to the police is not so trivial and easy. Pouring some gasoline on your neighbors house and burning it down or emailing bomb threats are also trivial tasks that children understand are wrong.
1986's Super Mario Bros. Movie Is Being Painstakingly Restored, Now in 4K
I think this convinced me to put the -Weverything in my build flags :) This article provides exactly 1 technical argument to why you would not want it:

> every time we upgraded our compiler, we’d have to update our build flags to include a whole slew of additional -Wno-... options.

but that's exactly what I want! Our internal app is built with a single compiler version, and upgrading the compiler requires extensive re-testing. One of the cool things about new compiler versions is new warnings it enables, and we definitely want someone to evaluate those. So we have two options:

1. Use "-Wall". Every time compiler is upgraded, someone should temporarily build with -Weverything, wade through the tons of false positives and find any interesting warnings, then add them to the build rules. If they forget to do this, there is no way for PR reviewers or other team members to know about it -- we'll silently proceed with potential errors in our codebase, not even knowing about opportunity for improvement.

2. Use "-Weveryting -Wno-warn1 -Wno-warn2..". Every time the compiler is upgraded, we get all new warnings which appeared in this compiler version. And a person making compiler upgrade PR must decide which warnings are bad (need to disable warning) and which warnings are good (need to fix the code). And they cannot forget it, they must do it before PR will pass the tests because we always compile with -Wfatal. And other team members and reviewers can see which warnings we are disabling.

It looks to me that on the private projects with fixed compiler version the 2nd approach is strictly superiour -- more visibility into disabled warnings, and you cannot forget to check the list. A pity that gcc does not support it.

> Yes. There were a lot of them for absolutely no reason but for a completely baseless claim.

How would they know its baseless? If someone broke into your house with a gun do you want the police to show up assuming you're lying?
You're probably right. But I'm just saying what ARM might be thinking.
> There seems to be something peculiar to the US style of policing that makes swatting more dangerous.

Something peculiar about certain groups of US teens, too. Some of 'em seem totally convinced that they're immune to consequences as long as they're below a certain age…

>"The type system is for structuring how your program runs not its logical correctness."

Type-level programming can be a very powerful and useful way to coerce correctness in some scenarios, so I'm really confused by this statement.
The reason why they're going after them is because of their refusal to publish the weights of their network, yes, but that's not the basis for this lawsuit. After violating the GPL license, StockFish has terminated ChessBase's license. They are no longer allowed to run or distribute StockFish's code.

Given that the chess engine in question is just a tweaked version of Stockfish, this will have a severe impact on their ability to sell their product.

I'm not sure how this would work with derivative code, though. I wonder if they could take a fork of StockFish, which is not StockFish and therefore subject to a different license agreement, and go on their merry way. I don't think that tactic would work (the original author can still claim copyright over the code from the forked repository, I believe) but it might be a possible defence? I think? Not a great one, though.

I don't see any other way ChessBase can get out of this, unless the court decides that the termination clause is unlawful for some reason.
Noone has an answer because people just want to be mad at the police.

"restaurants started reducing hours..."
>> This is EXACTLY what I mean by "supply curve shifting down." Restaurants are not willing to supply the same number of meals/hours to the market at the given price.

"My understanding this year is that popular restaurants require reservations 60+ days in advance."
>> This is what a shortage looks like. Long lines and empty shelves. People who are willing to pay the advertised price, but can't because there isn't anything to buy.

"started reducing hours due to labor shortages."
>> Meaning that there is more demand for labor than supply at the current price (wage). The supply curve for labor moved down, causing a shortage of labor at the current price. That's a 'shortage' as perceived by businesses that don't want to pay the actual market clearing price/wage.

In your example, a labor shortage is leading to a restaurant shortage. In both cases caused by changes in the supply and/or demand curves (down and/or right, respectively).

You could also go farther upstream to the housing market and say that because the supply curve of housing moved down, house prices went up, and that caused labor's supply curve to move down accordingly.

All of these things ultimately mean fewer things and less stuff, at higher prices.
In the old days it was common in documentation to prefix anything you were going to run with the prompt, just to make it obvious that it is a shell command.

Like so:

% echo 'stuff' >> ~/.zprofile

If something had to be run as root the prefix was # instead, just like in Bourne Shell.

Of course this makes it more difficult to copy and paste, you have to do each line one at a time.
Unemployment rates refer to the share of workers who are out of work, not the share who are receiving benefits - i.e. it’s the rate at which people are unemployed, not the rate at which they are “on unemployment”
I could have sworn I'd read that Zig's ambition was to be memory safe. Given ten years I don't find that impossible. Indeed I gave C++ the same benefit of the doubt on that timeline. But, when I just searched I couldn't find whatever I'd seen before on that topic.
Businesses might ask customers to pay more. They might instead pay CEOs and investors less.

> You should actually 1. run the line starting with echo in your current shell OR copy and paste the line starting with eval into your relevant dotfile.

This isn't right. You should be running both commands in your shell. That's what the brew instructions are saying, albeit in a confusing manner.

The first command makes future shells have brew in their $PATH, the second command applies it for the current shell.

To make things even easier for users, brew could forgo the second command and just ask users to close the current terminal and open a new one. This has the added benefit of confirming the first command.
>What do you propose as an alternative?

From the police that regularly chokes people, shots unarmed men, women, and even kids, and likes to play with military gear, and are trigger happy?

Probably one can't expect much of them, anyway.

A competent police would have set up some kind of barricade to stand behind, call for the person to come out, try to watch the house from afar to see what's going on, and in any case, not have several people stand with drawn weapons aiming at a person...

6th gen was a new architecture, Skylake. Wouldn’t it appear like they’re milking it if core counts simply weren’t planned to be increased. If the focus was merging mobile and desktop designs, and R&D budgets needed replenished?

I guess people get touchy when you start editing their startup scripts? I agree that it would be pretty easy for the installer to check and add the lines if they are missing.
What exactly is that universal "same procedure" that "civilized countries" (please leave such flamebait out btw) follow?

The primary reason this wouldn't happen like this in most other countries is that it's unlikely that the home owner would turn up with a gun - if they did, police would be pointing theirs too. Really the main missed opportunity here seems to be the call of the neighbor, which could have been used to coordinate, but overall it sounds like the one swatting death which really was a dumb accident.
If the call had accurately represented the situation it seems like it reasonably called for force. I'd say if we wanted to deescalate the police response we'd have to get a lot more serious about restricting gun ownership. As it is it's hard to see what the nonviolent solution is to a heavily armed person doing violence.
If it gets to that point, which I think it will, then the there will be no such thing as an instruction set. Computing will be reconfigurable asynchronous data flow.
In which country the police has the worse death statistics in such situations (at least outside of some developing world backwater)?

In which country would such people move forward with weapons drawn, shouting commands, and making things worse?
A harsher punishment isn't going to solve the problem.

These kids aren't doing this shit because they expect to get caught.

The real problem is the militarization of the police force, and the idea that all it takes is a random phone call (without any proof or verification) to have someone's house stormed by a squad of men with guns and military gear.

I'm not going to try to BS my way into pretending like I'm an expert but I do find it to be a safe bet to think that in 20 years it will not be cheaper to have the world's best telescope makers come to whatever random city you are in around the world to help you set up - instead of one amazing telescope maker making 1000 on an assembly line and firing them all off

I've noticed that some people are simply allergic to the MWI view, likely because of a religious background. Strangely, my physics classes were about 80% fundamental, bible-carrying Christians, as were many of the "Fathers of Quantum Mechanics"!

Many mathematically and physically theories that are perfectly reasonable are rejected by such people out of hand because it doesn't mesh well with their preconceptions of "The Earth is Special", "I have a unique soul that is me", "Jesus came to us, here, specifically", etc...

I know I'll probably get voted down for this, but these are the literal arguments that I was given once I pressed some of my fellow students hard enough on why they reject MWI.

It's not because they investigated the logic of the situation, like you have. They just "feel" like MWI makes them less special and unique in Creation.
Even if it were technologically superior in some ways, the fact that it's made and run by a "Q"-like LARPer/fraudster figure makes it dead on arrival.
I like what you've said here. I'm going to think more about it. Some quite important points. There are parts of dealing with people that can't be science based. I would find it hard to disagree with that. We do try to use science in this realm quite a lot though....
