Academically certainly interesting, but everything I've seen on adversarial attacks against ML models relies on knowing the model or having a way to run the model against attacker-determined input.

How would one go and attack a real-world vehicle? Essentially you'd need to gut a vehicle entirely, mock every sensor and actuator to fool the car's control unit to believe it is still driving a car... a lot of effort.
Currently the bottleneck is substrates, not TSMC.

Doesn't this make Facebook a proud supporter of the Doomed-to-Repeat-it camp?
Yes, because that's where the refrigerated warehouse is usually located: in the back of the store, to make it easier and cheaper to restock shelves from behind. By comparison, at least in the US, green groceries are almost never in the back of the store.

Which vector-based rendering did you use? I'm working on a new attempt at that here, though not WebGL-based:

If it's extremely useful in a particular situation, why does it matter if it's not useful outside of that situation?
House prices are a real issue, although I don't think that's only because of increased money supply.

Otherwise, does it matter? What's the impact on ordinary people if bitcoin is worth 100 or 1 mio dollars? Notwithstanding the fact that the number of people actively buying financial assets has gone up a lot in recent years, which is bound to increase prices.
Huh, seems (superficially) somewhat similar to the recently released HighFleet.
It's called price segmentation. Make the same product available at multiple price tiers, but make the lower prices more time consuming and difficult to get. Clip a coupon, file a rebate, join a club. Then you get the best of both worlds, you extract a maximum price from well to do shoppers but have an optional price that still attracts the bargain hunters.

Yes, no problem with that. Eventually a long standing established digital identity is needed. Provided by anyone, state, bank, etc. Opening a new one should be easy though, but risk assessment should be done at every step (as the account gains new trust in whatever system).
Go is a replacement for a certain subset of C/C++ projects that are I/O heavy, e.g. web servers. However the GC precludes it from many uses of C/C++, e.g. you couldn't write an AAA game in it, or a kernel, or a toaster.
Therapy can help! I had a handful of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and re-writing my script (not letting those ACE define me) has been a wonderful adventure. Mostly credit is due to The Blindboy Podcast, with help from friends and a hired counselor (temporary, and essential when I needed to unload all my thoughts freely. Now I can talk myself through with CBT and burn the paper). It’s about growth, not dependence.
Well, only the lexer deals with strings, and even then… it’s not really creating strings, just extracting some information from them. Creating strings efficiently and safely is IMO the hard part of string management in C.
The problem with most of these types of "attacks" is that they're about the same as any other messing with roadsigns or what not. There's no end of things you could do around the roads to cause crashes, but they're all illegal and ultimately low impact.

This is a lot more interesting though from how it highlights the difference between current machine interpretation and human interpretation of road signs: which is to say, explainable AI is still incredibly important - the ability to slightly discolor the signs and have a blackbox AI read something entirely different means the systems and trainers we have are not cueing off a "safe" set of inputs to deliver their interpretations.

From that context, this is very interesting and important work - and I would argue also points the way to at least some basic road safety standards for self-driving systems (they should be resistant to this sort of non-human perceptible visual distortion).
1) Ok. And the intent at time of advertising was always not to see the jet. So I don't see your point. Still seems to apply at the time of advertising.

2) They did indeed not ever intend to sell the thing advertised. So again, what are you talking about?

> But with the cost of tools, you're probably still losing money if this is just a hobby

What if you don't buy your own tools? Aren't there woodworking tools in maker-spaces?
Assuming prices of necessities don't rise to capture that UBI. Which is a very real concern; when all your potential customers have an extra $1000/year, you raise your prices by $1000/year and suddenly you have $(1000 * # customers) extra per year and they're back where they started.

To really fix poverty, you need to address shortages, particularly ones in basic necessities. If there's a housing unit available for everyone, landlords will have no leverage to raise rents. If there's a preschool for every kid, the cost of childcare won't go up. If there's a doctor (really a health insurer - the issue is monopolization of the customer channel) for everyone and you can switch easily, the cost of healthcare won't go up.

If you give money to people and don't fix the underlying shortages, the price just adjusts to capture that money.
Are you using the imports in your file? The VS Code Go addon has "format on save" enabled by default and Go will not compile if there are unused imports - so VS Code deletes the unused imports on save by default.

Otherwise try a "go mod init" in the root of your project.

A perfectly rational person would have all available information. Since ducking wastes energy vs. doing nothing, if they were going to get hit they would duck, and if not, they would do nothing.

But again, being perfectly rational is impossible.

I don't think there's any clause in US bonds that lets the US pay back the debt to avoid future coupon payments, like there is with a mortgage.

However, since there's an open market for t bills, the treasury could buy back a certain number of bonds that people are willing to sell.

However it's not quite the same. The only reason that problem don't calculate the cost of the mortgage over time is that they are more concerned with asset values, not because it's better accounting.
A debt denominated in a fiat currency AND we might have spent 2T on the wards, but the full accounting has to include the full cost benefits of those expenditures, some of which could have been positive (in terms of financials).
The employer pays the same social security and medicare taxes as the employee and also has a cap on the social security part, plus in some cases an unemployment tax.

If you want to include employer taxes, to calculate if the employer wants to pay you 250K how much you would get, then it's be about 42%. At 100K, it'd be about 38% since you don't reach the SS cap.

Of course, there's a couple other tricks in there, like the government can embed some tax into the healthcare costs which are required for employers to buy, but then there's also deductions that are hard to turn into a percentage like this.
> There's probably a danger, though, that by making the programming language/runtime too capable, the game ends up being "solved" or at least ends up only leaving boring work for the human to do.

This would imply that war and generalship in reality are already "solved" problems. It's not a real concern.
Dollars being worth less is obviously true. The well-defined link to this being a result of QE is less clear.

I keep hearing that it's supply shortages due to covid and wage increases due to unemployment aid.

Who knows if that is true, either.
Dynamos for vehicle performance are common, and GPS spoofing is not hard. In a world where AI driving systems are a couple of decades old and on the used car market now, obtaining the source hardware would be very straight forward.

My impression was that Obama wanted to be more progressive-- domestically if not internationally. But he got derailed spending 2 years of a supermajority on a single issue (healthcare) partly because more centrist democrats objected to the more progressive ideas, and partly due to special interests. After the midterms he had little chance at passing more progressive policies, leaving a fairly centrist foreign policy agenda.

> In this world, most errors are silly type errors

I can’t speak to python, but typescript has basically fixed this problem overnight in the javascript ecosystem. The typescript compiler finds almost all small bugs like this while I’m coding. And as an added bonus, type hints allow the IDE to be much more helpful - adding to jump to function support, autocomplete, method parameter suggestions (or documentation on hover). And typescript is easier to read than javascript because you don’t have to guess what data type some variable is.

I love javascript’s quick and dirty nature, but I still use typescript instead of javascript now for any code I write that I expect to survive the week. (And as a bonus: you still get IDE type hints when calling typescript functions from raw javascript!)

Typescript’s type system is also more powerful than Go’s. It supports enums, genetics and type unions (eg x: string | number).

Go sits in the awkward place of having a worse type system and no significant advantages over typescript for me. It’s awkward to use go on the web. Go is faster than javascript on the server but that usually doesn’t matter. And when it does I can reach for C or Rust. Both of which work really well with native code, or with JS through wasm.

Rust is much harder to learn than Go - but personally I’ve climbed that hill already. Once you’re over that hill, Rust is much more expressive. On purpose both ways - go isn’t trying to be expressive, and rust is. I love rust’s parametric enums and output types in traits. Which I now sorely miss in other languages.

I can imagine Go shining a lot more brightly when working with a team which has mixed skill levels. Most of my work lately has been solo, so I don’t need gofmt to enforce a consistent code style, or anything like that. I do miss Go’s green threads. Rust’s afterthought scattergun approach with threads and futures feels like a mess. But I can’t see myself ever really using Go. It’s weak in areas I want it to be strong (eg the type system). And strong in areas I just don’t care much about. (Eg consistency).

The best solution would be if the US introduced mandatory passports or other forms of ID cards with smartcard capability, similar to the German Personalausweis. It has a secure cryptoprocessor with key vault, meaning it can be used to sign documents (if the bureaucracy to get a signature CA wouldn't be completely stuck for years now, SIGH), but especially companies willing to use authenticated data can fetch them securely over any NFC enabled terminal. Quite ingenuous.

This would entirely kill ID fraud at the source. The problem only seems to be an aversion in some parts of the US population against ID documents.
I don't think ECS necessarily means a "build the world" approach. I think it's best kept at the level of a data structure with some given set of operations: create entity, destroy entity, add component to entity, remove component from entity, get component on entity, and the big one -- query / iterate through component combinations on all entities that have them.

Just like arrays and structs, it's yet another data structure to be used in the general data-oriented approach, one that becomes useful because those creation / destruction patterns come up in games and adding and removing components is a great way to express runtime behavior as well as explore gameplay.

The "focus" on ECS may just come from it being an interesting space as of late vs. arrays, structs and for loops that have been around for ever, but it's mostly just an acknowledgement of common array, struct and for loop patterns that arise. There's also a lot out there about the systems part and scheduling and event handling but I think it's almost best to start out with simple procedural code (that then has access to the aforementioned data structure) and let patterns collect pertinent to the game in question.

One big aspect I personally dig is if you establish an entity / data schema you get scene saving, undo / redo, blueprint / prefab systems that are all quite useful and basically necessary if you want to collaborate with artists and game designers on a content-based game, and empowers them to express large spaces of possibilities without editing the code.
The Unicode consortium never added flags, like ever. Regional indicators are intended to be "This is an ISO-assigned region", looking like 🄰🄵 than a flag or something, however they acknowledge that implementations would add flags anyway.
This title doesn't even begin to scratch the surface of what this is capable of. A much more viable (and damaging) attack would be encoding "invisible" data onto a widely-shared photo, and then manipulating it to trip the CSAM filters for the respective platforms. These attacks are designed to be invisible in real-world applications, but I can imagine a similar implementation designed to be invisible to humans (eg. encoding important data as two seemingly identical colors, or manipulating dither patterns).

Stuff like this is why we can't trust AI. That doesn't mean we can't use it, but most of our models are black-boxes that can only be "debugged" as much as a pizza can be "decooked"
I wasted a significant amount of time playing a similar concept game called Space Trader on PalmOS (and it seems someone has reimplemented it for Android!). This game is much expanded but Space Trader was very, very reminiscent of Drug Wars.

With the introduction of generics in Go 1.18 and the accompanying "slices" package (https://github.com/golang/go/issues/45955), we might soon write that as:

a = slices.Delete(a, i, i+1)

That said, in code I write, I rarely need to do an in-place delete from a slice. I think it's rare enough that recognizing the idiom is okay.

For all you React users (Reactionaries?) out there, there's React Leaflet. I'm in the process of making a little React portfolio app that randomly generates airports within a user-defined distance of each other (for all the indecisive Flight Sim users), and with this library it took all of about 20 minutes to put the airports on a map, draw a line between them, and center the map on them. Really neat stuff.

Why do you feel Microsoft wouldn't "screw developers" too?
What you are criticizing is (the fashion of) the example app there, not the functionality or interface of the framework itself.

The lemonade.element function just wants a template and an object with some methods. Whether you use ES6 classes or proxies, or ES3 constructor functions with prototypical inheritance, or object literals to define that object is a matter of taste, and it is all up to you.
That’s just cash benefits. Men and married couples by design don’t get most benefits.

Most safety net assistance isn’t in cash. There’s a stigma associated with the cash handouts — people typically seek food, health and rent assistance.
I feel this is not as simple as this. It's a nice appeal but very removed from reality.

If you didn't have strong enough army to protect you, then you might loose, schools hospitals and what not... Unfortunatly, in a real world a war is not a maybe question but a when question. The question is what amount of defense expenditure is adequate? And that a political question, with no right or wrong answers that for the voters to decide.

I hope humanity lives in peace some day and there will be no more need for armies but that is a distant future. Until then, you do need an armed force to protect all the good things the free society has created, how much force you need vs civilian infra? An open question...

To be more specific, Intel currently allocates a fair chunk of their dies to iGPUs. Will that no longer be the case when Intel manufacturers their own dedicated GPUs? It seems like a waste of silicon.
The little fact I keep in my mind on this topic is for a fraction of this cost the USA could have simply purchased all of non-urbanized Canada, and this would surely have been a far better investment.

* Leaflet is based completely on the web platform. It achieves a zoomable slippy map experience by animating DOM elements - usually image tiles.

* MapLibre GL JS is a BSD licensed fork of Mapbox GL JS version 1. Instead of consuming bitmap image tiles, it consumes tiles corresponding to the same coordinate extents as the above tiles, but containing tagged geometry features. So instead of sending a PNG image you're sending what is essentially an SVG, but in binary format and with some domain-specific compression.

* The GL JS renderers also rasterize those vector tiles using WebGL, which means that all the geometry data exists in GPU memory and can be scaled, rotated, and recolored etc in realtime efficiently, and also implement their own limited text rendering so even labels can be rotated in realtime.
Any time you get compromised, you're doing it wrong. What's discussed here is what should the consequences be for doing it wrong. In legal terms, the question is whether this was ordinary negligence or gross negligence. Gross negligence usually comes with pretty stiff penalties.

What's discussed in this thread is whether the larger a company is, the more likely it's gross negligence. The irony to me is that every large company I've worked with takes security very seriously. The only gross negligence I've seen has come from startups that willfully disregard security practices in the name of moving fast.
> One could actually have, for example, an artillery projectile in mid-flight accidentally collide with an aircraft.

Or, anti-air units used as ground defense and ground assault units :). In my TA days, I had plenty of cases where I saved my base by ordering AA bots to fire on the ground, counting on weaker but much further-flying missiles to accidentally collide with the attacking force.

Also, Commander's D-gun. That one was an exercise in aiming, but early-to-mid-game, one well-placed shot could cut the attacking force in half.

I also appreciated the little things - like the solar generators automatically closing down when hit, to protect themselves.

Or, dropship bombing - IIRC when a dropship gets shot down, it crashes with all its load, which can sometimes be pretty explosive.

Maybe I'll just stop now. I have a lot of good TA memories.

Things like 9/11 were easily played over and over again, and generated support for the afghan war in the first place.

In NZ when the terrorists broadcasted the Christchurch mosque shootings on facebook, NZ took action swiftly -- banning most semiautomatic weapons.

When BLM protests showed cops shooting, tasing, and running over people with patrol cars -- those images were more compelling than any story that could have been written.

OTOH, Last year one nursing home in NJ had stacked up 17 bodies during a in a shed during a covid outbreak -- yet none of the gruesomeness was aired. I have not recalled seeing any videos of people falling dead due to a mass shooting in the US, other than maybe blurred out video.

I'm not saying we should or should not see more graphic images, but it seems like self-censorship of the aftermath of violence or tragedy has unintended consequences.
