> But if you do this people will argue this is inefficient, because you are copying a lot of objects.

Syntactically it is annoying to some extent. But, just like the most important data gets saved to a database with lots of "ceremony" involved -- separate protocols, transactions, SQL statements, etc, because it's pretty important to track updates carefully. Here ,it's a bit like that, but on a smaller scale as in memory program state is also important, and has to be tracked explicitly, and for that some "ceremony" is acceptable.

Implementation-wise, because of immutability, there is copying but it is often not 100% duplication. The updated version and the previous one behind the scenes (in heap) might share a lot of common structures. For example, if we have a 1000 element list L, and we updated it with a new element at the front L1 = [H | L], then L1 and is not a complete copy of L, but instead is just element H and a pointed to the shared tail L. For dictionary data structures (maps) something similar happens but there it's a O(log n) order of updates with everything else being shared. Definitely not as efficient as in-place updates in say C++ or Java but that's a price I'd happily pay.
Really unlikely. What's realistically possible though is to turn speakers into microphones through firmware or software, depending on your audio card. You're welcome for having yet another thing to be paranoid about.
There was a fun PC game called Omega [1] where you earned resources to build a tank and then programmed it to win combat; which earned you more resources. It was a great game. It had it's own programming language, iirc.

I find the sweet spot for a good subreddit is between 10k-100k subscribers. Less than this range results in low activity (posts from 6 months ago still on front page) but more than this range just attracts karma farmers, memes, and witty one liners at the top that don't add much to the discussion

Of course the subreddit still needs to be focused on a specific topic
You got me. You're right, of course.

Are you aware of BANAL-20-52's spike? That's a bat virus, and it's only 16 AA substitutions (plus no FCS) away from SARS-CoV-2:

https://twitter.com/jbloom_lab/status/1440309655087902720?la...

I've seen no explanation for why the spike of a bat virus would be so well-adapted to human ACE2, but apparently that one is. That's an argument against the need for an intermediate host, whether that host is natural (e.g. a non-bat wild animal) or not (e.g. hACE2 mice in the lab).
> There are two forces at play: decreasing infection rates among gay men, and increasing infection rates among straight men. Both aspects of the curve are "doing work" to change the statistics.

You may have missed the point — only one of those is modulated by (relative) delay in heterosexual diagnoses post-infection.
There are multiple parallel realities and yet everything is one.

> So the problem with this explanation is the straight infection rate is steady while the gay one is what’s changing recently.

No, the sampled rates for each are what they are. I've extensively described the sampling bias with each.

> There’s no reason to suspect a yet undetected spike in straight infections.

There doesn't need to be a spike for what I'm saying to be true. But even still, demographic trends support the (unverified!) hypothesis that straight men will continue to grow as a proportion of diagnosed HIV cases: increased IV drug use, increased availability of non-barrier prophylactics, etc. But again, I've said all of this before.
Adobe XD, where did it go wrong?
Crypto is a lot more convenient and faster than most multinational wallet for me. At least in my region, it could take a week just to cash out my dollars from Paypal while on crypto I consider 1 day slow. That's not considering Paypal's tendency to cancel your withdrawal for suspicious reason and cut your balances for it.

Same -- went to the midnight (iirc they just moved it ahead to 10pm, since unlike LotR/etc no one cared) show at the Cinerama in Seattle and it was packed. People brought pool noodles to wave around, the whole crowd was hissing -- I've actually never rewatched it because I assume nothing could compare to the experience of watching it in that setting.

That is the tool for basically doing anything productive as a business... it isn't as if they've done some about face at the emergence of genuine competition - they've always been unusually well liked (especially considering the industry).

Cheers, it’s been an interesting conversation that actually went on far longer than I actually anticipated.

You make a good point here.

> When I tried to think of an analogy that was as silly as "inflation has nothing to do with price" I failed. I can't think of anything as wrongly silly apparently.

Ironically I completely agree that inflation and price are inseparable. To be honest I couldn’t think of an adequate analogy either, it is just silly, everything is a bit ridiculous right now, and it feels a bit absurd that it even needs to be stated that inflation is in fact inseparable from prices.
Depends on exactly what youre after. AWS Config acts as an inventory and audit of resources, with some enforcement state features. Eventbridge events are produced on resource state change and CloudTrail on API actions. Those are super easy to wire with “post” hooks using eventbridge rules.

Those dont really provide for generic “pre” hooks as they fundamentally represent changes. Getting arbitrary customer logic in to the API call chain has a lot of scary implications for fault isolation, timing, resource use, etc. In my opinion it would also provide very very sharp edges for users to cut themselves on. And, of course, getting consistent behavior and coverage across the ~300 existing AWS services is a pretty big implementation challenge.

Disclaimer: Principal at AWS, but no inside knowledge of the Cloudformation changes or mentioned services.

Yes and it's been a constant stream of feature drops since.
The normal non-Google way is to configure initramfs to start an SSH server on a non-default port, and then you log in (from your secure workstation with a dedicated public/private key, of course) and use systemd-tty-ask-password-agent to enter the disk encryption key.

You can then monitor whether your service is up, and if you get a notification that it's down use the hosting service's management interface to reboot the machine/VM and then do the SSH thing.
Vision only is probably better than mixing different sensors. Radar brings a whole other set of issues. BMW and other driver assist systems with radar all have a class of failures related to the detection of stopped objects when traveling at high speed. The radar is giving a confusing response and the vision disagrees. So which one to trust is hard.

Tesla’s vision is just a better approach. It’s how humans drive. FSD is using all vision.
You can get it up 'til you're 45 (after that it's not approved), but you have to ask. My understanding is most adults have already been infected, so it is not considered very important to vaccinate them. If you haven't had any or many sexual partners, I reckon it could make sense to get it even if you're not a teen any more. On the other hand, if you've been with more than a handful of people, you've probably already been infected.
There was a time, where you could specify image dinensions in a more granular fashion (even with the option of "Larger than: ", where a dimension was supplied). Sadly it is no longer a feature. Granular control on search is long gone.

Not directly related (some) but the setting of Alien/Aliens is awesome. A deep space ship just out there on its own, great vibe.
there are quite a few of sequels which are as good or better then the original. Terminator 2, Aliens, The Empire Strikes Back come to mind.

But IMO, the likelihood goes down exponentially the more sequels they make.

Not sure why everyone is being so negative. Taken charitably the scientist is saying

"We don't currently have a mathematical definition for what consciousness is, but if we do develop one in the future, I would not be totally surprised if we learned that todays large neural networks (I assume here he is talking mostly about the recent gigantic language models) turn out to be conscious in some sense."

Maybe that's overly charitable, but that statement doesn't seem too unreasonable.

I felt that it reads like it was written by someone trying to convince others that marijuana use isn’t really the cause of this issue. I smoke on occasion and am certainly not anti-pot, but I’m often irked by the pro-marijuana group’s eagerness to sweep side-effects under the rug and to pretend pot is totally healthy. I’m going to need more than a Wikipedia article to write this off, personally.
my thoughts too, based on limited understanding of GPT. but the more pressure you apply towards compressing the neural network during training, the more circuitry these paths are likely to share. it would be interesting to see just how much and which parts could be folded together before you start to lose significant fidelity (though unfortunately the fidelity seems too low today to even try that).
So your answer is "It's ok to be misleading. And because you don't know you're being mislead it's your fault"?

This is exciting! Blade Runner is my favorite dystopia (secret utopia) world. (It's fake dystopia because mankind has pwned the Fermi paradox, so who cares if one out of a billion ecosystems has collapsed?)

It's an enormous and very cool world to explore. There is plenty of material to mine, especially since to get to fill in 50 years of lore to account for self-replicating robots. Definitely segues into space opera territory with replicant v human corps Dune/CHOAM/Emporer style intrigue. My guess is that to justify drabbiness they'll posit a long running war between replicants and humans that perhaps leave Earth cut off from her colonies. Maybe one side "won" but pockets of resistance remain. Part of it would follow a pocket of taboo h/r cooperation where humans and replicants live together by choice. (This is juicy messaging for post-woke hollywood when they can spread an acceptance message without pandering to an actual identity group. What would make it really interesting is if replicants are only stronger than humans as much as men are stronger than women.)
I wonder if part of it is providing a way around internal politics/prioritization to force the teams to actually take action, to make delaying a fix a complete non-option.
Not only it's not free, but it closed-source, too. When others (such as Scalr, Env0, SpaceLift) are using OPA, HashiCorp uses something that's not portable and that's not even using HCL. Their offering ignored not-invented-there tools such as tfsec, tflint, etc. - they only integrated recently with partners, who possibly do revenue sharing with them. Meanwhile, competitors of TFC are not sleeping and innovating way faster (Env0, for example, supports Terragrunt, which fixes many of the core Terraform issues they've been neglecting for years, such as the lack of dynamic providers). The problem is that HashiCorp is dysfunctional for the past two years. Their focus shifted to who knows what, but many providers are barely maintained (such as TLS). They have over 166 engineering jobs openings on their website - you can tell they are struggling! I guess their engineers are too busy interviewing candidates, but I assume their pay rates are below market as the positions keep staying open for months or there's a steady turnover. They jumped on the cdktf bandwagon to compete with Pulumi, but I'm not sure if that's a practical use of their resources especially when it's not even supported by their commercial offering.

So I gotta lie. But you know I'm lying, I know I'm lying. It's just that when we make the argument in aggregate, you can't prove it. And there's enough dodgy science that I can invent all sorts of stuff. "There's some evidence for" is a quick trick to take a nonsense study and Gish Gallop someone with it. But that's the game.

It really doesn't. Life sits in a complex, chaotic feedback loop which on our mayfly timescales tends to orbit around a semi-stable attractor. It only does so because everything is killing everything else just as hard as it can, while everything else tries to kill or outcompete it right back.

I don’t think any platform, either Linux or Windows, has successfully implemented secure sandboxing aside from true virtualization, if that. The isolation provided by kernel-level sandboxing like cgroups has proven to be a thin layer of protection in practice; it will just shift the problem to fixing sandboxing issues.
