Yes although that is the X series, I've been browsing after my comment and had noticed that there is a mix and some seem to be Ubuntu and some Fedora, which is great.

I also appreciate that they are saying that everything should work, including the fingerprint reader which is one thing I'm a little bitter about the XPS series. They'll sell you a laptop that is Linux compatible, but not everything will work.

Indeed. I also expect this failure mode will be undetected for a long time due to how our sense of hearing works. My last neuroscience class was many years ago, but I do remember that in some sense, we hear what we expect to hear (more so than vision if I recall correctly, though there is plenty that happens in our vision processing) in that our ears tune for particular frequencies to filter out ambiguities.

Suppose a person says something that the codec interprets differently. Perhaps they have one of the many ever evolving accents that almost certainly were not and absolutely could not possibly be included in the training set (ongoing vowel shifts might be a big cause of this). The algorithm removes the ambiguity, but the listener can't tell because they hear themselves through their own sense of hearing. Assume the user has somehow overcome the odd psychological effects that come hearing the computer generated audio played back, if that audio is mixed with what the person is already hearing, it's likely they still won't notice because they still hear themselves. They would have to listen to a recording some time later and detect that the recording doesn't match up with what they thought they said... which happens all the time because memory is incredibly lossy and maleable.

Most of the time, it won't matter. People have context (assuming they're actually listening, which is a whole other tier of hearing what you expect to hear) and people pick the wrong word or pronounce things incorrectly (as in not recognizable to the listener as what the speaker intended) all the time. But it'll be really hard to know that the recording doesn't record what was actually said. You need to record a local accurate copy, the receiver's processed copy, and know to look for it in what will likely be many hours of audio. It's also possible that "the algorithm said that" will be a common enough argument due to other factors (incorrect memory and increasing awareness of ML-based algorithms) that it'll out number the cases where it really happens.
(1) may be false, or the implication in step 2 is false.
At the end, this is all about business and reputational risk arising from the research data being misused ala Cambridge Analytica. Risks are quantifiable based on past litigation history. So why can't FB require the researchers to provide indemnity secured by their college's fund or through some specialist insurer? If what they're doing is really above board and data collected is secure, the indemnity will never be called in and everyone can be happy.
Replication Formats
I feel like the more practical version of this is the Apple Watch cellular version. You can do those things easily but stuff like wasting time on IMs or checking emails is cumbersome. Its the ideal device when you want to get away from distraction (you can turn off non essential notification) but still lets you make a phone call or receive one if its important. As well as streaming music.

I assume everyone using the OP phone also has a fully featured phone to go with it so the OP product does not seem very compelling.
By having known activities that humans have done and asking it to repeat them?
Things will get interesting when postmarketOS can finally support some devices in a meaningful "daily driver" use case (it can't right now). The earliest uses for it will look a lot like this feature phone stuff.
When I was poor I did odd jobs for a friend who'd made it big and was now a millionaire. I thought he had it made, until one day I heard him complaining about a friend of his who'd made 50 million. Then I realized that in spite of his huge house, fancy cars and so on, he was still consumed with jealousy and bitterness around matters of money.

If you've got a decent roof over your head, access to good healthcare and a car that runs reasonably well, you're doing better than a huge portion of humanity.

Don't look up and wonder why you're not there, look down and wonder how you can help.

This has the added benefit of allowing you to not drive yourself crazy.
I wonder how big the codec itself is. Neural networks are not exactly small. Also, the processing latency - Lyra mentions on its GitHub page 100ms.
You are right. I hold my hands up: I did not give credit to what made me think of doing this. I think I saw this (or at least, their blog post https://phiresky.github.io/blog/2021/hosting-sqlite-database...) on HN a few weeks back.

I have now given them credit.
> They'll sell you a laptop that is Linux compatible, but not everything will work.

That is despicable on Dell’s part. The definition of ‘compatible’ is that everything will work.
This seems obvious to me. I think ultimately they are choosing the story given to them. If you tell them a story and they buy that, they also don’t care about what product you make but what story your product tells.

If it tells a good enough story it is a story they can then sell to consumers.

Profit isn’t to be made by meeting basic survival needs, but once people have their basic survival needs met, then it can become profitable to start selling the story that this product lets you be a participant in.
The Apple Watch cellular version might be your thing. Directions, music and some IM usage is very easy but web browsing is non existent.
Testing can be automated, but it's highly unlikely that your automated testing is going to catch every problem.

We got involved in an emergency "replace this component" job at work recently. When the inevitable "how are we going to test this" questions started cropping up we did describe how we'd made half a million automated tests and that we had a reasonable understanding of the < 1% failure rate.

It was pretty rapey too.
It's fine if most implementations of RPC are Level 1, even the main C++ bindings; due to the design of the protocol there only needs to exist a single Level 4 implementation written in any language, and all other implementations can then piggyback on it for their own needs beyond Level 1 (so cap proxying, etc. all come "for free" once someone does that.) I've mentioned Level 4 support to Kenton a while back and the basic answer was "I haven't needed it so it's not done." It's not intended for there to be a Level 4 implementation in every language or anything.

The biggest issue is undeniably that the language maturity isn't quite as solid as the alterntaives. You've got C++, Rust, Python, C#, maybe one or two others. Only C++ is first class. So gRPC and Protobuf win here. But the actual RPC design and IDL design of Cap'n is solid and way more well engineered than the alternatives, IMO.

I have no opinions on the ZeroVer thing. Cap'n Proto is very stable in my experience but I see why others would raise their eyebrows.

FWIW, Sandstorm has been using Cap'n Proto since 2014, and I don't think anything done with Cap'n Proto has really broken it since, despite Cap'n Proto development largely having moved on to support Cloudflare Workers development.

With it being fundamental to Cloudflare Workers at this point, you should assume it's support will be solid for at least as long as Cloudflare Workers is a significant part of Cloudflare's business.

This results in cool things like promise pipelining. It is very interesting how it can simplify interface design, and there are examples on the RPC page[0].

> It's not that there is no unique solution past the time of collision, it's that there is no solution at all. The model ceases to be well-defined because there is a singularity.

What you meant to say is there is no solution at the singularity. I never said that you didn't say this. I said that your statement implies that past the singularity the solution is nondeterministic.

>For the three body problem to be non-deterministic, one initial condition would have to lead to multiple valid trajectories, which is never the case.

I never concluded this. I concluded that we don't know if this is never the case for the 3 body problem. For classical mechanics in general I concluded that non-determinism is the case.

However let's reiterate what came from your initial post: "You think Newtonian physics is non-deterministic?"

I have proven this statement to not be something that I think, but something that is completely true and thus I have validated what you "thought" was my initial point. That should provide some partial conclusions to your initial points and you have admitted that you agree.

>What there does not apply to all initial conditions with distinct mass positions?

The theory does not apply at the singularities. You stated this yourself, no solution exists.

>The conclusion you have arrived at is wrong, and I urge you to reconsider.

I am in the process of reconsidering by simply speaking to you. That is the purpose of this entire endeavor.

Can you prove to me that past the point of collision the solution is deterministic? Obviously classical mechanics is still highly applicable outside of the the singularity. So after the given initial conditions and up to the point of collision the solution is deterministic.

During the collision the model fails to describe anything.

After the collision there are multiple outcomes that can occur depending on factors you assume and make up in your regularization scheme. All of these possible paths are governed by classical mechanical laws as they are outside of the singularity but we have several possibilities here. Or maybe not. Who knows. My claim is nobody knows. But we do know the system is still ruled by physical laws so the space of possible solutions is bounded. Basically I'm asking you to prove to me that within this space there is one deterministic unique solution.

>As I noted above, this is a residue of the idealization of the problem and could be removed by modeling with hard spheres instead of point masses.

Sure. But that's not the point. If you want to talk about non ideal cases things become weird even when you get really close to the singularity.
> Also another value judgment. Two rookie mistakes

I don't see that as a value judgment. If nothing matters, you might as well feel good about it. It simply makes logical sense, no appeal to values necessary.

U assume all developers are creative every day. Most of them solve stuff already solved elsewhere thousands of times.
Yes, though frequently the solutions are very similar to each other. For example, if you plot the future of an asteroid in 10,000 different simulations, you’ll probably find that in most of them the asteroid remains in the asteroid belt where it started from, but perhaps in 10% of them it is perturbed enough by Jupiter that its orbit becomes a Trojan, or some other variety. If you look at the details of the 90% where it stays in the asteroid belt, you find that while they are all in different orbits from each other, the differences are not very significant. Just 9,000 rather similar orbits inside the asteroid belt.

“Chaotic” usually means that the difference between two similar starting conditions grows without bound the longer you run the simulations forward. But orbits are closed loops; everything about an orbit is periodic. If two orbiting objects start near each other but have different orbital periods, then soon enough they will be far apart from each other. However, if you keep running time forward then they will end up right next to each other again. The distance between them is itself periodic, bounding the total error in a practical sense.

Combine that with the overall stability of our solar system, and you find that most objects tend to stay in particular orbital families for quite some time. Most objects are near the bottoms of deep potential wells, and the forces that can push them out of those wells are quite small. It is only once they are pushed near the boundaries of those wells that rapid changes can begin to happen.

Of course if it were any other way, then there would be nothing left in the asteroid belt by now. Compare that with Saturn’s rings, which simulations suggest will only last another 100k years, give or take a bit. They must be a relatively recent phenomena.
As a Canadian who has lived in Europe as well as America, I experienced more sameness than difference. As Saskia Sassen writes, global metropoles of elites all have the same culture really. You can get a craft beer everywhere now. As I write from St. Petersburg, I can say that it too fits this, but, there is a sense of alienation - in a good way - wherein people ..don't even imagine what you are thinking or judge what you are up to .. it's hard to describe - like they do in the West. For example, there are signs everywhere for masks but few wear them, and I do sometimes and sometimes I do not. No one really notices. Vs in the West there is a mask fetish as it stands for one's inner moral position or something. That space - the space we all inhabit most of the time of our own fantasies and stuff we say to ourselves - remains inviolate here. I am not saying anything else about the problems in this country which are legion and I don't want to wade into that here - but on a subjectival level, in the context of 2021, I feel calm here.
Not necessarily. In a fadt-growing startup scene the chances are significantly higher than a lottery
True, these things seems intentionally made complicated since they want to push Apple Music/TV subscriptions. If you still haven't figured it out, you can put iTunes music to your iPad. But it requires like ~$20/year subscription called iTunes Match. So yeah, you can't do it for free using their suggested methods.
I think (hope) it is matter of time before they will also start supporting coreboot, probably.
One control scheme that's used nowadays is two joysticks, with one to control orientation (pitch/roll/yaw) and the other to control translation (up-down/left-right/forward-back). I usually map the left stick to translation, with twist working the up-down axis.

Takes a little getting used to, but is pretty intuitive, and gives nice smooth analogue axis for all 6DOF.
That’s true of any software you’d use anywhere if you accept the updates of the creator. Linus Torvalds could accept an update tomorrow that surveils people’s data and YES people might notice but plenty of people just accept updates and move on (if you’ve done code reviews you know how arduous multi-hundred or thousand line contributions can be to review).

My point is we've already been taking the same risks and the only reason it’s something now is because it’s a transparent process. It’s always a “trust us” scenario unless a person routinely scans all software they is and all updates for malicious server calls or some other kind of recording of data and maybe opening of a back door.
>US citizens' desire to fight in WW2 perhaps largely came from propaganda to begin with - maybe in the absence of propaganda most of them would have been fine with doing nothing to help Britain, France, etc.

The attack on Pearl Harbor and Hitler foolishly declaring war against the US were the main reasons there was a great deal of support for the war.

>...About 60% of US WW2 soldiers were drafted, not volunteers.

It is misleading to put out that statistic without giving the context. The reason there weren't more volunteers is that the US stopped allowing most volunteers and just told people to wait to be called for the draft:

>...On December 5, 1942, presidential Executive Order 9279 closed voluntary enlistment for all men from the ages of 18 to 37 for the duration of the war, providing protection for the nation's home front manpower pool.

You can just remote into a terminal if you want a CLI from an iPad.
We still still have plenty of available ipv4. The current trend seems to be about using what's unused rather than migrating to ipv6. Some ipv4 can be sold thanks to NAT too.

Many Windows tablets can actually run Linux just fine these days. It's a bit of a pain to install and the specs can be quite underwhelming, but the basic hardware support is there at last.
Definitly no. My laptop may lie around in my absence, my key is on my keyring and I take it when I close the door to go outside. Besides, even in the unlikely event they have the key, they still don't have my fingerprints to activate it. This also doesn't address the BT ring.

If you have to worry about your room mate acquiring all of that, your threat model doesn't allow for remote work as the adversary will bypass the keylogger too.
