SV very much benefitted from 1950s and 60s military research funding (most prominently represented in Bell Labs and CC). VC funding is a secondary step, first, you need strong research centers.

The next SV will be wherever there is a critical mass of well-educated youngsters and a political will to create a technology cluster using the present human capital (and pulling in local talent with attractive places to live). My bet is somewhere in central India or near Guangzhou.
I'm not saying the browser isn't a factor, or that Google isn't anti-consumer, or anything else. The original comment didn't say they were caught up in some unobservable AI machination. They made a pretty straightforward observation mentioning only two conditions: Google bounces them when using Firefox. From that, they jumped to a pretty straightforward conclusion— Google transparently harasses Firefox users to advance their corporate strategy.

I'm not going to jump through hoops to prove a negative, but correlation does not imply causation.

My empirical observation: For many years I have constantly used Google search on FF with many machines and networks, logged in and not, in private mode and not, with all existing privacy features enabled and no extensions beyond a password manager. Napkin math conservatively estimates I've conducted 200k searches minimum using this combo. I've consistently encountered suspicious activity challenges when using overcrowded proxies, NAT'd networks and VPNs. Removing those factors has never failed to stop the challenges. Ever.

I'm confident the poster's observations are accurate. My observation does not directly contradicts their observation, but it does contradicts their conclusion.
I wouldn't be surprised if other factors like JS being enabled, cookie settings, plugins that affected those things, number of other users on their network, or even the public IP range they fall under would affect it.

Uh no - it's on cloudflare and azure. Why don't they have a global setting that says Max Charges Per Month: $X and it just shuts down when it hits that number? This is why I don't really like using big cloud services like this.
Yeah, I mean, say what you will about the moral character of the founding documents (I think they did a pretty good job for the time, minus the slavery clauses), the question of the founders integrity isn't much in doubt! They were rank hypocrites.

>FreeBSD Does Not Support Virtualisation

this is a half-answer at best and not really relevant. the point of virtualization is that the OS doesnt really care or know its being virtualized in the first place. supporting the virtualization of BSD is a moot point as it really doesnt concern the OS. bhyve (for all its worth currently) isnt mentioned, but it would be nice to see peoples experiences with it to date. props for not flogging jails as a solution however, as quite a few BSD purists will cheerlead this as virtualization.

>The BSD License Means Companies Don't Contribute Back

the real issue here is with license purists and the philosophy of open source. BSD gifts companies with an easier path to turning your work into a cloistered and proprietary part of their code, whereas GPL at least makes an effort to keep them honest about their appropriations. plenty of companies to date still do skirt the GPL though. ultimately whether or not a company gives back to an OS community is a matter of business prerogative and not entirely license.

There already is a standard charger in the US, CCS. All fast chargers installed in the last few years have been either Tesla or CCS. All non-Tesla models introduces in the last several years have had CCS faster chargers. Early on Nissan was promoting CHADEMO but that plug type is now deprecated in the US. There are still also J772 level 2 chargers for low speed charging such as at your house, but all vehicles support that as well.

It is true that other markets have their own standards, China and Japan for instance but the number of cars moved between markets is very small.

In Europe, Tesla has switched to CCS. In the US, Tesla has committed to letting CCS cars charge on its network. The CCS network in the US is growing quickly and is in the same general size as Teslas. Thing are coming together.
Once! For the Lichess website so I'd be notified when it was my move in correspondence games.
I'm most of the way towards agreeing with you, but I think you underestimate how far you could get without any major changes. Most of the brain consists of feed-forward processing, and what closed loops exist are probably replacements for backprop rather than essential to cognition. That's all the low level processing, from visual to motor. Now obviously we have higher level processing too, and it might be super weird! But no model we've made comes close to the size of even specialized brain regions, and study after study has demonstrated the power of the subconscious mind. Once we have big enough models, we might find out that all we need to take it to that final step is a while loop.

Maybe in gigantic systems with more tables than makes sense. Realistically, all of the columns available in a database can be fit in memory with ease.

Then, the ide could basically fill my from out for me, based on what I'm asking for. Can even suggest what join I will need, if I list columns from multiple tables.
But the big difference is that, unlike Chernow, many (if not all) Confederates were contemporaries of the Founders, including Jefferson. It would be like modern historians today trying to work out Reagan's political positions.

And the Cornerstone Speech is really just the most on-the-nose characterization of Jefferson's views, but our understanding of his views is the product of analysis of a variety of his own writings and actions (including, famously, the outlawing of the international slave trade): https://www.umbc.edu/che/tahlessons/pdf/historylabs/Where_Di...

And finally, _even if_ one were to concede that Jefferson was somehow a dishonest broker and was secretly an apologist for slavery, it has very little bearing as to the merits of the values enshrined in the US Constitution. That some of the Founders happened to own slaves doesn't render the principles of the freedom of speech invalid. That some of the Founders happened to own slaves doesn't render the principles of a restrained government with checks and balances invalid.

They are not fully-aligned goals, and autocomplete should not be given equal consideration on par with human clarity.

If you want nice autocomplete too, that's fine, but if there is a tradeoff, human understanding is the primary concern.
> With symlinks (or hard links for that matter) you can have folders work like tags in a real filesystem.

The word can is doing a lot of heavy lifting there.

Tagging system (at least the ones I've seen): enter the tags as autocompleted tokens in a single text entry. Possibly the system can autosuggest a number of tokens, possibly not, depending on your use case.

Symlinks-as-Tagging-System: I want to save a file called "foo.txt" and start editing it immediately. How do I enter the tags?

> I don't disagree; but I think the cloud (AWS/Azure/GCP) have sort of shielded people from how cheap/powerful the underlying hardware has became.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but I do find myself often surprised to realize that for a younger generation of developers they have never experienced hosting on bare metal. So they have not been exposed to costs & benefits vs. the cloud approach and feel that no local machine could ever be as fast as AWS. Even though in reality even a pedestrian server is immensely faster and cheaper than any AWS offering.

Now, sure, there are tradeoffs in ease of scaling up and other considerations, but it's good to keep and eye on the actualy tradeoffs you're making and how much it's costing.
Just don't think you are getting a universally-relevant "survey" of any sort from techies caring about privacy.

I know a guy that used to make sites like this. The gibberish you see is scraped from somewhere and its purpose on the site is to give Google bot something to see and rank the site for search terms related to the content. There's a PHP script running behind the scenes and when users from a certain geographic location or meeting some other criteria happen on the site by clicking on it from an organic link in Google search, the content is switched out for a page full of affiliate ads linking to eBay, Amazon, or whomever.

The "thin" sites with this stuff are generated by a script and the spammer will create thousands of them on cheap hosting. The economics work since it usually takes Google a few months to boot the sites from organic search but by then the affiliate money has been made that more than covers the cost. And the whole time Google is pulling the sites off their search page, more sites are steadily being generated.
Repent!
I gave nix (the package manager) a shot about a month back and gave up quickly. The lack of documentation is real for anyone getting started. And it got even more confusing as you’d typically need more tooling and hacks for particular dev environments (Node.js is what I tried).

As much as I dislike docker for dev environments, it is easy and consistent to setup and works for all the languages I’ve had to deal with.

You left out some context from the cited study [1].

> Total annual fuel savings of $12 billion/year relative to Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicles translates to an estimated
societal payback of 8.6 years to cover the costs of electric sector investments (7.2 years if GHG benefits are included)

That's quite the ROI, and arguably the spending must take place regardless to decarbonize electrical generation and transmission.

I'm not sure which person you are referring to as "the author", but for clarity, the slide is a screenshot taken from a slide used in a presentation by Peter Doshi: https://rumble.com/vqc2ww-dr.-peter-doshi-of-the-british-med... (at 1:41). It's used as it was presented there, and was not altered by the author of the Substack post, Joomi Kim. When I claim that it wasn't intended to deceive, I'm referring to Dr. Kim's use of it. I don't know enough about Dr. Doshi to speak to his intent.

I don't think it was Kim's intent to claim that there is "no advantage of vaccination", nor do I think she made this (erroneous) claim. Instead, I think she was using the slide to make the specific legitimate claim that Fauci and Walensky overstepped the conclusions of the study when they claimed that "clinical trials have shown that the vaccines ... are highly effective ... against death". I think this is useful evidence the official sources are willing to tell "noble lies" for what they think is a good cause.

Whether that evidence matters in the face of a Covid pandemic seems to be a point of dispute.
He says it is DIN of the "non-ADB" flavor, so probably not.
> Folders are simple, even if tags can imitate them, they can't replace their structure. Tags are a good fit for items that naturally fall into several categories, like music or books, but not for general file systems.

This. They're different tools for different jobs. Being a dogmatist and trying to win an us vs them competition on which is the ONE TRUE SOLUTION is stupid. That's like trying to argue which is a better tool, a screwdriver or a pair of pliers, and saying it's stupid to keep a screwdriver in a toolbox. Honestly, in a lot of cases both should be implemented and available.

Stupid reasons pliers are better than screwdrivers:

* There are so many different kinds of screwdrivers; it's too confusing to users.

* Pliers can be used to drive screws, so there's no need for a dedicated screw-driving tool. We've had a lot of success gripping the screw head with pliers and turning.

* Pliers are beautiful and modern, and lots of popular influencers are using pliers now. Screwdrivers are old tech and ugly.

Why should the evidence be overwhelming? Look at how long it took for the evidence for things like smoking, lead in gasoline, DDT to show up.

If the harm is acute then sure evidence should be overwhelming but we should continually look for evidence of injury as it could be subtle.

We should also keep in mind that even if we do find a rate of injury higher than originally thought, the overall benefit of the vaccine may still be positive as Covid itself has a higher rate of injury.
Thanks!

I just fleshed out composing CTEs, which is a small step towards the broader goal of making composition easier: https://github.com/max-sixty/prql/commit/dc68fcaaceef26cc078...

I just accept that modern computing is complex, and requires a multitude of methods to organise and navigate.

For example, I use Digikam from KDE to manage my photos. It has a LOT of ways to file and retrieve photos. First are collections, and they contain folders that are a window to the filesystem. (I like that, because it means only maintaining one filing system.) Inside a folder view, you can also group photos by dragNdrop. You also have star ratings, tags, flags, locations and faces. You can search by dates, locations on a map, or show images that are similar. The list goes on. It is very flexible, so you can choose your workflow.
This is definitely not the case. A100, which is used for most "AI supercomputers" is manufactured on TSMC fabs, while Nvidia's gaming cards are produced on Samsung fabs. AMD produces their gaming GPUs on TSMC, but they are somewhere around 10% of the market since they are unwilling to divert their capacity from CPUs, which are more profitable, and consoles, really not sure why.
Also, didn't Hunter Biden work for Burisma?
Check out Bonsai Browser [0] if you want to see what a web browser built on tagging rather than folders looks like (disclaimer: co-founder).

I think the main virtue of tagging systems is in the low friction to add info and multiple inclusion.

Tagging also has its downsides and I think we'll probably end up on some hybrid system in the long run.

I don't think you read the article very well. It mentions bhyve and also promotes jails - which I think are a perfectly acceptable solution to many (but not all) of the reasons why someone might want to do virtualization - I've moved on to OpenBSD for my hosting and have also been experimenting with NetBSD, but in both of them I'm really missing something equivalent to FreeBSD's jails and I wish the idea had caught on in the broader BSD ecosystem.

Not all database systems can optimize queries well over CTE boundaries. I believe this is still true for PostgreSQL (no longer true, see below -- it was true a few years ago). So there's a potential performance hit for (the otherwise excellent advice of) writing with CTE's.
Street parking can have outlets, too. It's going to take some municipal power to get there and right now maybe not a lot of cities are thinking that far ahead, but it is something that eventually cities will have to ask themselves if they want to help fix and how.

Many cities already have electrically wired parking meters today and adding a plug on the side of that isn't a major technical hurdle, it's much more a sociopolitical hurdle.
I like the flow direction specifically for intellisense/autocomplete. I'm sure it would be easier to provide hints when the table name is known immediately.

A tsunami is a wave. Not sea level. Waves literally come and go over a period of seconds to minutes. They wobble back and forth without actually moving much water. Sea levels move on the order of hours and days and involve the physical movement of literally hundreds of cubic-miles of water. Raising or lowering a sea level measurement (not a temporary wave) requires far more energy than a volcano.

From the link: "Listed wave heights are maximum amplitude in cm (above sea level)." In other words, even tsunami waves heights are not changes to sea level.
I think this is because Google compiles these cast lists based on search proximity prevalence. So if you look up some actor and a movie in the same query many times it starts to assume the actor is in that movie. Maybe they combine this with some base scraping but I think it's highly unlikely they use some API or hand craft the lists.
At 16k it will definitely be the biggest.

As for today, Nvidia has this a very slightly smaller cluster that you outlined at ~5k, Microsoft as a few of them roughly of that size, and Microsoft also built a 10k GPU cluster for OpenAI 2 years ago, but those are V100 GPUs.

So, is 6k A100 "bigger" than 10k V100? Depends exactly how you use them, in a perfect usage scenario yes, slightly. In real life maybe not.
Should we let the uninformed masses make decisions based on wild speculation? Should non experts get to weigh in in the technical merits of your field? What value do people with no prior knowledge and no expertise add to scientific discussions?
Not sure what people don't like in your answer, probably the truth. Bordering with Russia always includes some tragic history - occupation of the Baltic States and Romania, Winter War, occupation of Poland, occupation of the whole Eastern Europe, brutal oppression of Hungary's revolution 1959 and Czechoslovakia in 1968. Moldova 1992, Georgia 2008, and now Ukraine. At this moment Russia evolved into a completely totalitarian fascist state, while the West still plays Appeasement Policy with it, just like with Germany in 1938-39.

Many of them have managed object storage services as well. OVH[1] and Linode[2], scaleway[3] have them, that should scale for most use cases and are S3 compatible APIs

Also Azure and Linode, Scaleway Backblaze and others are part of Cloudflare bandwidth alliance [4] so there shouldn't be egress fees between the two.

No. I thought so too, but it's orbit around L2 is bigger than the Moon's orbit around the Earth. It's never in Earth's shadow, but it's position allows it to block both the Sun and the Earth consistently with one shield without moving it. At least that's my current understanding...
