Reddit is (or has been):

1. Relatively easy to create a subforum.
2. Someplace you can post [pseudo]anonymously.
3. Has a critical mass of people.
4. Is accessible to anyone on the web.

There's a subreddit for all sorts of topics, and if there isn't one, it's fairly easy to just start one. You don't have to deal with setting up forum software or paying someone for it, and if you want to you can create a post with a pseudoanonymous throwaway account. It's really easy to come and go, and there's enough moderation that it hasn't in general devolved into a *chan-style environment, but not so much it's alienating.

Pseudoanonymity is maybe underappreciated in social networking I think. It's really a key feature. Once you reach some mainstream critical mass, having that feature really moves things along.

If you could replicate those four things in a decentralized way, it might take off. But there's a chicken-and-egg issue with network effects.
Moderators have the most to lose by moving, it will be the people who don't post who have nothing to lose.

We are seeing a consolidation of moderators of the major subreddits. The number of moderators on reddit is incredibly tiny, sub-sub-sub pareto level of control.

These subreddits are losing diversity of who moderates them and it's suspected by some that many full time moderators are fully paid up employees of PR firms. Even volunteer mods admit that its basically like a full time job. It makes total sense if I was in a marketing firm for Netflix to have an employee being a moderator on the largest internet forum about movies. This pull moves away from the organic, disorganized and diverse nature of reddit to a kind of centralization and conformity. I suppose recent events have also shown the power of these power moderators in shaping the platform to the will of those moderators, come to think of it. Interesting times!

I agree for the vast majority of users it costs nothing to move, and they will if there#s something better which there isn't anything yet

But, as before with all the other cases, those who move will be the early adopters. moderators are the old guard, stuffy, controlling, professional, they will be the last to move as they have to protect their investment. Those who move first will be the more independent and chaotic riding the wave. I look forward to it.
Don't worry. I thickened my skin in the stormy waters of the RedditSea.
Not surprising. I'm still waiting for Tesla Semi, which was supposed to be released in 2019. But two years later, the production hasn't started. But hey, we got Tesla Bot.

That is news to me, and welcome. By the FAQ, it appears furnace filters must be covered. Box fans might be borderline, but even being seen publicly accused of violating gouging laws would be bad for HD.
Yes, you can use NLP. One trick would be to use a medical vocab like https://www.snomed.org/ if anyone is doing this

Yeah and they still can - no problem
It doesn't matter, panic is gone, they are not scared anymore as they got used to fact that >99% of them are surviving. >99% survival is very acceptable for countries where preventive health check ups does not exist.

In those countries people die all the time due to reasons which could have been prevented with regular health check ups and care, COVID restrictions were only making it worse for people who have to work everyday to pay for that days food.
Harder to spot visibly?
Isn't that the same argument people use in support of gun ownership?
I should add "the average home user 'likely' won't be affected by them". There's a couple of reasons for this, but it's still not a good enough reason to warrant allowing this kinda thing to continue to ship
Whoa! This just cements my contention: Nintendo GameBoy should be on every intro to computational architectures syllabus ;)
It’s 143mm x 55mm, the iPhone pro is 146.7 mm x 71.5 mm and the iPhone pro MAX is 160mm x 78 mm. Granted it’s also thicker and slightly heavier, but calling it cellphone sized is reasonable IMO.
That's ok but give us back Touch Id. Lack of it is a deal breaker for many.

If Elon says they're shooting for 2023, then 2025 is more likely.

> We need a digital bill of rights.

What would be in such a digital bill of rights? (This is a bit vague for me to understand what you're necessarily advocating for)
You are quite welcome. :)
You're arguing either in bad faith or completely devoid of reality. Lower mortgage rates allow existing property owners to pay off cheap houses and further expand portfolios, affecting supply. Meanwhile, zero property owners need to amass increasingly large deposit/downpayment as banks limit lending to a salary multiplier. This is really basic stuff.
Because it's hard to believe that Twitter has been that incompetent for that long. It seems more likely that they're trying to push people to log in.
The social aspect of Reddit is a massive enhancement of this. It's one thing to see a headline on WaPo or NYT. It's another to see that on Reddit, with dozens of commenters all posting takes that advance the same frame or line of reasoning, upvoting each other, congratulating each other on how smart they are, etc. What you don't see are the interlocking moderators on all the top subs or the fact that people are frequently banned from completely unrelated subs for political reasons based on their posting history. The result is an echo-chamber that is a 90% match for the editorial stance of WaPo or NYT at all times, except it looks social and organic, and therefore extremely convincing to onlookers.
Russian minority in Estonia does not even have guaranteed citizen rights, not to mention any special rights.

Ditto for Ukraine where Russian language in some respects threated as third class citizen, i.e., the only language that you can't use in education or in official contexts. They still pretty much continue to speak it, though.
Interesting. I think you nailed the problem I have with reading Pratchett.

[Edit: I mean, he's really witty. He's a blast to read. But about half or two-thirds of the way through a book, it becomes... just a bit too much. Like it stops being enjoyable and starts being... kind of work.]
Nope, that's why that requirement continues to be despised in Finland (and quite hilarious tbh)
I'm not in any way slow to understand, not in this case anyway.

> If you can't see why an open border is vital for the continued peace, and why removing it would place tension on a peace that took decades to achieve, then you've already made up your mind.

I didn't say that, and I'm not even going to engage your straw man.

And I did not blame the EU for Brexit woes, I made a pretty basic statement of fact that would probably cover any negotiation, one which was intended only to signal compromise -- hence why the UK did not leave entirely -- not woe or blame.
Well. So. It's an interesting case.

This isn't for an upcoming iPhone model, but more of a future indication. COSPAS-SARSAT return link is a feature undergoing testing today.

COSPAS SARSAT basically means Search And Rescue Satellite in both Russian and English. It's the international space-based search and rescue system. Today some Global positioning satellites (including GPS) are part of this programme as MEOSAR (Medium Earth Orbit Search and Rescue), looking down if they see a suitable digital beacon signal they will remember and, when able to see a ground station, relay their estimate of the beacon position and the beacon message (which may include a truncated GPS position from the beacon). The beacon might be a relatively bulky component on a ship, a handheld but still cumbersome personal beacon, or even an oversize wristwatch from Breitling, the Breitling Emergency isn't exactly a dainty piece of wrist jewellery, but it's not bigger than an iPhone.

Today that's a one way system, you activate your beacon and rescuers know which beacon it was, and where you are, and hopefully they come rescue you.

But return link is an upgrade so that beacons can receive a message back in the other direction e.g. "We see you" (which at least means you know the beacon worked) or maybe some day "We see you. Rescue team on foot to you. Stay nearby" which further improves morale. We know morale is very important in serious accidents. GPS birds are equipped to transmit of course, that's the whole purpose of them, so this is a relatively reasonable upgrade for them.

Thus today you can't get anywhere close to "Internet access" via this, it's even less practical than IP Over Avian Carrier. But in the future it's less of a stretch than you might imagine that a phone-sized device could in an emergency far from civilisation get some basic network access to find you assistance.
'Negative intensification bias' and unintended meaning
>But you also know they are accessing their email exclusively through an email client. What do you do? You can’t flag their account for a password reset, because there’s no mechanism in the email client to affect a password change.”

> If only there was some way to communicate with a email customer...

I'm not really sure what the issue here is. When the ISP knows their customer's accounts are compromised it doesn't matter what type of client they use to check their messages they absolutely can "flag the account for a password reset" by simply resetting the password or temporarily disabling those accounts.

This forces the customer to call into the ISP the next time they try to check their email, verify their identity to the ISP, and then set a new password.

The customer might be angry about having to take the time, but in most cases telling them "Your account was hacked and they were accessing your email messages" is enough to change their attitude from annoyed to grateful.

You don't even have to wait for them to be compromised. I worked for an ISP that updated their system to require more complex passwords. They put out notices to get as many people as possible to reset their passwords then disabled every remaining email account in batches until everyone had called in to reset their password under the new requirements.
Isn't Rivian partnered with Ford?
It would be unwise to take Reddit as illustrative about how normal people feel about anything. The platform is designed to falsify the appearance of strong consensus.
what even is the issue with manufacturing? is it labor still? You would think at this point the virus has came and went through most working class neighborhoods and a lot of people are carrying antibodies and no longer all finding themselves too ill to work at once. At least that's the case when we look at working class neighborhoods in the U.S.
Americans fetishize wealth and often discriminate based on signals of wealth from others, so it makes perfect sense that we fetishize a social signal of wealth that cannot be faked effectively. That's why we still have lawns, even when a third (or whatever) of our drinking water gets poured into them each year, because it's more important to signal wealth here than it is to conserve water. Unfortunately, we also have lawns because they are a sign of "cleanliness", as our racists often label their desire to exclude non-whites, and they too prioritize exclusion over conservation.

In the 1950s, when perfect lawn 'suddenly' became popular (as per the article), both wealthy Americans and racist Americans (there's a lot of overlap) moving to and driving the creation of suburbs were trying to find ways to exclude both poor people and non-white people. This was implemented more and less blatantly to varying degrees, and lawns are one outcome of that exclusionary desire. Wealthy whites realized that lawns were a perfect signal of wealth, and racist whites realized that lawns were a reliable and deniable signal of "cleanliness", which is code for "whiteness". They both enforced those signals with codes and laws (and later HOAs) that require a tidily-kept lawn, in order to exclude anyone unable to afford the time and money to maintain one, and both groups benefited from each other's efforts.

Those laws continue to be enforced today in many neighborhoods, against people without the resources to maintain a lawn, and against people who voluntarily choose not to. That's why police are called on someone who grows a garden in their front yard: if anyone can just not grow a lawn, then the exclusionary groups think the neighborhood will decline into poverty and crime, because it will no longer be restricted to wealthy and/or white residents only.
Ford seems even more battery constrained than Tesla. Currently on track to ship 15,000 F150L units in 2022, up to 85k/year in 2024.

Rivian, Hummer, Ford and Tesla will all ship electric trucks next year, but sadly none of them in large numbers.

The only "sorry state of tech journalism" is over-reporting this as "omg it totally will" instead of "qualcomm released a new chip which could pave the way for the iPhone to have satellite connectivity"

The issue isn't limited to tech journalism at all and in fact tech journalism may be the least affected by this issue of all.

But, frankly, I know my headline won't generate as many clicks or views and that's why they do it. Because we collectively react more to the sensational.

The fault, dear lanna, is not in our stars, but in ourselves.

I don't think there's anything special about being digital on this.

Beyond the global output and error of each sample from the last epoch, the log also includes the weight update of one single (fully connected) node for each layer.

During the compilation phase, the training dataset is projected on a complex vector space that is constituted by both the "model" of the "neural network" and these logs.

It's just like projecting a shadow over a bidimensional surface: if you discard the data pertaining to one dimension you have no hope to guess what projected it: you need both dimensions.

The logs that are preserved in the compilation process is the part of the vector space that is usually discarded during the "training".

But discarding the "model" would have exactly the same effect: you cannot get back the source dataset from those logs alone. That's why this does not "smuggle the training dataset back".

Indeed the fact that the source dataset is obtainable from the couple "these logs" + "final model", but neither from "these logs" alone nor by the final model alone, proves that a substantial portion of the source dataset is always embedded in the "model", that becomes a derivative work of the sources.
It's honestly insane when you lay it out, the Tesla Roadster (1st gen) was produced 2008-2012, it took them until 2017 to even announce a successor, aiming to deliver in 2020. Now the deliver date is 2023 assuming that 2022 isn't a mega drama (yeah I'm sure that'll age well). And how does this come to us? Fucking twitter.

Elon Musk's companies have often produced good things, but I find it fascinating that a man who wants to be great, can't even be half-decent.
They (the FAA) oversaw zero deaths caused by the 737 MAX.
Yes.

It’s the digital equivalent of having cocaine stuffed in your cars’ back seat. Doesn’t matter how it got there.
We don't start with technical or an hour.

1. 30 minute chat

2. 30 minute tech, part resume, one algos problem ~20 minutes.

We can expand the algo scope depending on how good they are. It is designed to be simple yet relevant to the job, based on actual complexities in the code / system.

Maybe revisit how you conduct the interview process?
Was it a case where they didn't know how to write it down, or did they have a problem with saying individual letters? The latter seems much more likely as different languages usually small differences in pronunciation of some letters.
I dont remember a 737 Max crash in the USA.
I really think it should be, though I'd put a Risc-V RV32I core in place of the original one.
Though it’s plausible that ML could eventually take on some screening or diagnostic tasks from highly trained radiologists or pathologists, there is the hurdle of accountability that will need to be tackled. As with self-driving technology, the models will have to be good enough to take on the liability risk at scale.
'Incredibly' may be a stretch considering common complaints about performance, netcode, and 3d audio.
Yes, I remember a character in a 1920s novel as being described as "fashionably anti-semitic" (i.e. adopting it casually as part of fitting into society) -- perhaps an even more damning form.

> Similarly, you can't send money out of a bank account just by knowing the number.

You might if you walk into a branch with a little fake ID and a smile. Or you get a forced "vacation" in jail :)

But yeah, it's not naturally assumed that you can just do something with those numbers.
Late to reply but the answer is services are different than desktop software. Azure services fall under a rigorous compliance regime and pentesting (3rd party even) is part of that. Just goes to show compliance does not always mean secure.
>> Studies were of poor methodological quality.

That's the main conclusion to draw. Better studies are needed until we can know whether Geoff Hinton was right [1].

____________

[1] “Machine learning pioneer Geoffrey Hinton said, ‘If you work as a radiologist, you are like Wile E. Coyote in the cartoon; you’re already over the edge of the cliff, but you haven’t looked down.’

“Hinton went so far as to recommend that med schools stop training radiologists right now.”

I'd argue that buying things online with no friction is pretty life changing. Lots of people barely go to stores anymore.I don't use an Alexa, but for people who do I think its a pretty big shift in their lives. This is not even to mention AWS which has been a huge factor in the creation of the modern internet. Also for better or worse Amazon controls the economies of many small exurban towns in various parts of the US. Not all of its impact has been positive of course, but the impact is objectively enormous. I would say after Google, its the most impactful of the FAANGS
So then what do you use for container that's better from a security standpoint?
The antennas on those things are monstrous compared to anything on a mainstream smartphone. The image in the link is of it collapsed, this is what it looks like extended. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Iridium-Satellite-Prepaid-Airtime-I...

That’s dictated by basic physics and it’s not going in an iPhone effectively ever. Iridium satellites are in geo orbit though. You might be able to make a useful connection to something in LEO with a more compact antenna, but the satellites would have to be designed to support that. Current star link satellites have antennas designed to work with current star link base station antennas, not phone scale antennas. That could change though.
Well it says “after” the article, not “because of,” so it’s possible the FAA was planning to do this anyway.

It’s even possible that the causality goes the other way: that the FAA’s movement toward a grounding was the spur for sources to reach out to a reporter.

For the chip shortage, I thought it was related to water supply? But that the water shortage is passed, and now it's a matter of catching up.

But that's just what I've heard, I may be misinformed.
But why? Why give away any money which you could take? Is it due to Amazon believing in morals(which is seemingly absent in the way they treat their own employees)? Is it because there are business who would caution away if there are specific content hosted there(which seems very unlikely as unlike social network all content are basically separated)? Or is it due to government pressure or regulation?
Even I've heard of exchanges.
In my opinion, a lawn should be a space where vegetation covers all of the ground, and is kept under a few inches tall. As long as that's not thistles or poison ivy, then you can play on that all you want. My lawn has all sorts of grasses, clover, dandelions and wood violets in it. I get to see frogs and fireflies in the evening because I don't spray chemicals to kill them off. Mosquitos are inevitable. If you spray for them, you're also killing their predators like spiders and dragonflies, but not their food supply(you) so they bounce back really fast, way before their predators can recover.
'Masks', as worn by most, are assuredly not.

Edit: I'm not anti-mask. I would love it if you explained how ill-fitting cloth in a single pass is better than multi-pass HEPA or equivalent filtration rather than (or even as well as) down-voting, though.
I think this is a big problem for liberalism in the future. When we have 20 billion people and technology is more powerful and ubiquitous, big consequences could happen from individual bad actors remotely. Even if only the tiniest fraction of people wanted to do bad things, there would still be quite a few of them and they'll have more access as everything is more networked together.

Yeah, Model S Plaid is likely going to cannibalize sales from the Roadster for customers like me that just want a car with a ridiculous 0-60 time because accelerating like that from stop lights is fun as hell.

The only reason I don't have an S Plaid now is because the Model 3 Performance I'm driving now is already a larger feeling car than I want to drive. The Model S is a full-sized sedan, and I'd rather drive a 2-door coupe like my BRZ was. Also, being a convertible would be pretty sweet.
