I disagree. Of course, it doesn't understand anything, it is a statistical language model. I also think that human jokes are mostly statistical in nature. That's why "Yes, but they will have to get married first" is funny. GPT was trained using texts from the Internet. It usually contains jokes and not logic predicates. At any prompt that has a structure of a joke, it will use (in the majority of the attempts) a pattern for a joke even if there is none. "If X is y, is X z?" is a typical joke pattern. If logical approach is applied in the future, it will still be derived from the statistics/reinforcement learning or something like that (the key word here is training/learning). The world is just too vast. If you want to have a resemblance of a logic model, you need a special dataset, but it will still just exploit patterns. It might be good enough, for practical use. It is arguable, if people mostly operate beyond patterns. Sorry if my text looks patronising or smth like that. I just assume.

USSR nuked a gas well - an inferno was raging for 3 years and nothing elae could stop it.

"On that cold autumn day in 1966, an underground tremor of unprecedented force shook the [ground] with a sparse grass cover on white sand. A dusty haze rose over the desert. The orange colored torch of the blazing well diminished, first slowly, then more rapidly, until it flickered and finally died out. For the first time in 1,064 days, quiet descended on the area. The jet-like roar of the gas well had been silenced"
New stuff is scored well too at first, so the algorithm can "test" and see what kind of traction the post gets. If it hits a certain score for traction then it's boosted more, and if it doesn't then it's buried.

It's pretty much purely about the popularity curve of each post. The more it drives engagement the more it's boosted.

All hail the algorithm.

Browsing Wikipedia last night I learned that the Brontë siblings created a fictitious world called Glass Town with its own history, geography, politics, and interconnected plots and characters. I don't think this will ever be "useful" to me.

On the other hand, I've always had trouble understanding Kubernetes. I know the general concepts and I can get by reasonably well but there are parts that just don't click. This is knowledge that would help my career and financial well-being in clear ways.

If I were offered a pill that would permanently remove any knowledge of Glass Town and any ability to find out about it again in exchange for perfect understanding of Kubernetes I wouldn't take it.

I don’t think you understand my comment? (And the top level comment?)

Your token grantor is just taking in whatever request state you have (session, permissions granted, whatever), and stuffing them into the token that gets passed around. Then the various back ends and client calls also do that, and where there is a permissions check (or conversion) necessary, say on a backend API call to access something, it checks it the callers token has the right permission.

I don’t want IAM to work that way. I don’t want to use IAM for this? It’s the wrong tool.

There are a ton of various signed token frameworks, all with various trade offs. JWT (ugh), Gaia Mint (internal Google), etc.

It tends to work best where there are multiple layers of services, as you have an abstraction layer you can do checking/audits, etc. at.
That's not true. The photos you upload are hashed, yes, but they're not scanned. Only the hashes are compared and that's done locally. Apple never gets any of your content so your equivalency is completely false. Signatures only get sent if the hashes match known CSAM. Therefore, it's like your car reporting you if and only if you've broken the law.

The problem is not the orm, it’s how you are treating data. The ORM has features for doing “out of the box” sql if you happen to fuck up your relational model. Which you clearly have in your s/o post. It’s ok, we all make mistakes. SQL modeling has been screwed up many many many times. For these rare occasions where the orm doesn’t match the object model or the desired action you are trying to achieve, there are ways to use raw sql, when necessary. Your case, it’s necessary as the relational model is broken.

Effectively turning 2 class A white stars, 8 times as bright as Sol into computers, power plants and fuel for them, good for the next 14 trillion years:

"Power spheres take the place of the more commonly used central star of most solar systems, but are far more efficient. The average Sol-type sun will convert only a tiny fraction of its total mass into energy in the course of a lifetime of approximately 10 billion years. The Power Sphere network of Turing is designed to provide an amount of energy equal to that of a sun but for a period of more than 14 trillion years."

Or if you need more juice, say 100000x the output of the sun, you could sustain that for about 140 millions of years. ;-)

> > Secure passwords is just a tiny subset of non-default passwords

> Actually the exact opposite is true. Since only low entropy and publicly known (which are mostly low entropy) passwords are insecure there are much more secure than non secure passwords.

You're confusing "passwords that are in use" with the set "passwords that are possible". We have data via password dumps that suggests of the "passwords that are in use" the set that qualifies as "secure" is indeed a tiny subset of passwords.
That’s right, and then they fork in such a way as to return to themselves more than they put in (because later theDao shares were sold at 100x, and they refunded equally).
Many Christian denominations believe that they are the "true Jews" because they have followed Jesus who was fulfilling scriptural prophecy. Since the divergence, Christians have adopted the books of the New Testament as part of their sacred scripture. Meanwhile, Jews (that is, modern Jews, not the Judeans that have been translated as "Jews") have adopted the books of the Talmud. Saying that one is older than the other is like saying that homo sapiens are homininae that are older than gorillas because the names are similar when that's simply where both began.
Think about how last summer Harvard discovered that Covid started in Wuhan back in August 2019 using satellite imagery and then overnight the focus became how to combat anti-Chinese sentiment (hate crimes had risen against Asian-Americans to levels seen earlier in the 2010s, still an order of magnitude less prevalent than hate crimes against American Blacks). TikTok was the principle platform leading that charge. Pretty simple strategy and it worked, no one even talks about the timing of the Wuhan cover up anymore.

Bingo. This. If you’ve broken your relational model then go ahead and use raw sql with your orm. They all support a way of executing raw sql against your data. This is the exception, not the norm.

Planning works great for public utilities- roads, libraries, parks etc. The moment we cross that are have a planned bank, grocer, retail I think it falls apart. The grocery shop needs guarantee on revenue to be setup, and then they will slack off because they won’t need to compete or innovate. People will realize once the HOA bill runs in to several hundred dollars and have to deal with shitty services. In the real world, depending on the area, one grocery chain will die and another will take its place.

> The odd thing is that nearly everyone in the community still drives everywhere, and some own multiple cars. Parking is a disaster and everyone complains about it, but these were all new builds and the buyers all should have known that parking would be limited.

This sounds a lot like communities built during Soviet times. At the time the idea was everything you needed was in your community, and if you ever needed to travel outside you could use public transport.

This worked fine during Soviet times, as they could house people near where they worked, but nowadays that doesn't work. We still have pretty good public transport, but who wants to take two buses for 45 minutes when you can drive for 20 minutes? The green spaces between buildings have been converted to car parking, but it's still not really enough. As such all new developments within the city have to have underground parking.
> When my wife and I moved we completely changed what we were looking for in a house/community. We wanted a Main Street style town. We used to love master planned communities with huge houses. In our small, Main Street style town all of our kids can walk/ride to school, we have two grocery stores within 2 miles away, and all our doctors are biking/riding distance. It's changed how we live. We sold our second car. We own so many bikes. We are more active.

This is what drew me and my wife to Portland OR to start a family, and ultimately, how we decided on the neighborhood where we eventually bought a house. The entire city feels this way: pockets of walkable neighborhoods, parks, small grocery stores, restaurants, and beautiful outdoor spaces, all very intentionally designed. We've lived here for several years now, and it still feels very refreshing and lively compared to the suburbs we grew up in. It's hard to overstate the importance of thoughtful urban planning and well designed outdoor spaces on quality of life.
Eh let's take responsibility for our own culture before blaming on the insidious machinations of the great hidden Other.

That sounds pretty awesome actually! It also probably makes it a bit harder to prepare the materials, since you need to make sure it’s reasonably computable by hand.
If you assume the password to be only based on the 200 most common words you already have 30.5 bits of entropy to brute force or 1.6 billion guesses and you're assuming your attacker knows you're using this password strategy. The Wikipedia entry on Basic English [1] suggests there are about 850 core words for daily life and I could immediately think of simple words like well-known animals you would see in the zoo that are not included. So how many of these "4 words that you could draw as a picture"-passwords actually fall into even the most common 850 words?

30 bits of entropy isn't particularly secure against locally cracking a password hashed with sha256 or a similar non password hash. However at 1000 guesses per second it would already take 28 days to brute-force and 1000 guesses per second is pretty fast against any password stored with a properly configured password hash like bcrypt.

I personally auto-generate readable passwords for most websites at ~70 entropy pure brute-force and ~50 entropy if my algorithm and set of inputs would be exposed.

You are cherry picking influencers to try and argue your point.. How do you know Charli Damelio isn’t queer? Maybe the reason you don’t see a certain demographic doing big numbers on a platform is because the users on said platform are not interested? I find it odd that you immediately jump to the conclusion that it must be oppression because everybody doesn’t find what you think they should find interesting.

I’d rather watch somebody eat a bag of chips than listen to them talk about their sexual preferences.. I could care less what somebody finds attractive or who/what they are dating.
Yeah, with different tests it may be different. But in the UK the government pushes for 'more challenging tests', which means more stuff to memorise, a lot of the stuff is very specific (in science GCSE and A-levels there's specific phrases you need to use to get marks. Accurate descriptions which don't include those key phrases don't get marks), and there's a lot riding on getting near perfect marks. Someone who has a good memory and a few months to prepare and an expert on the topic with years of experience (but no specific preparation) have about the same chance with these exams.

Well, you have low pressure and low gravity working both for you and against you in this case. It doesn't have to be very strong, because atmospheric pressure is so low. But also, the lifting power is also very low, so it would have to be far less dense than a vacuum container would have to be to work on earth.

Low gravity means you need less lift, but low gravity also means the weight of the surrounding air is less so you need more volume. I guess that cancels out.

I suspect it's not practical in atmosphere as thin as Mars, but maybe with a light enough or strong enough material it's possible? At any rate, you'd need an enormous volume just to lift relatively small payloads. And, just filling a balloon with hydrogen would probably make more sense in almost any situation.

At least one good thing Mars has going for it in terms of airships is that CO2 is more dense than Earth's atmosphere. Even nitrogen would be a weak lifting gas on Mars (though it's not available in abundance there as far as I know).

Wikipedia has some useful background information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_airship
I posted in a sibling response, but basically, you are correct. Jesus and the apostles were not out to create "Christianity". They believe that they were Jews who were following the messiah outlined by the Jewish scriptures. I just found that the notion "X predates this group, but also this group was that same group anyways" was funny, despite being a bit pedantic.
I like DirectX ray tracing's take on branch divergence: when a program processing a vector of rays has a branch, the vector is split into 2 subvectors by the taken branch. Then each group is rescheduled separately. The process is repeated, so the SIMD unit can be fully utilized until one of the subgroups becomes too small.

I often wonder if this approach can be used for general programming. E.g. for example I could think of a C parser, that you could feed 200 files, it would use SIMD unit of width 20 to separate them into 100 files, that start with a function declaration, and 100 files, that start with a variable declaration. Then the second group would be scheduled to descent (as in recursive descent), and split into 20/80 int/bool variables. All with SIMD fully utilized. etc

On the same note I am curious if it would be easy enough to write a code generator, that would use this pattern when translating regular programs.

You quoted me saying “not to just be negative” then went on to talking about “an attitude of no negativity here”. Those two aren’t the same thing.

The above and especially your last paragraph appear to again repeat your pattern of having a typical “anti-woke”* agenda. Along with strong assumptions you build into innocuous situations. It seems like trolling because of how wild the last line is. Which gender is it even sexist against? I don’t know OP’s gender. Why would this ever be the assumption? It’s so far out of right field.
