There's a large gap between audible and detectable.

A transmitter could transmit a weak signal in a specific pattern on a number of arbitrary preselected frequencies. They would more-or-less seem like noise lost in the noise floor. Only when you specifically filter for the specific set of frequencies can you discern the pattern that was put there that could not appear by chance. You don't even need to use the same frequencies throughout the transmission. As long as the schedule is decided up-front it can serve like a one-time pad for encryption.
You have it backwards. State propaganda was what tricked me into believing history was truth. It was only when I attended college, a respectable historian educated me about history: "his story", "victor writes the history", etc.

Even if you can remove bias/agenda from man, the fact of the matter is only a tiny fraction of "histories" are recorded and of those only a tiny fraction of it survives.

I like history and think we need it to form societies, nations, institutions, etc, but it most definitely isn't truth in any real sense of the word.
There's something I don't get about the RP2040's design. I'd rather have a single "advanced" fast core (like Cortex-M4) than two lowly slow cores. Programming for two cores makes things way more complicated, and the RP2040's Cortex-M0s don't even have atomic int operations to help. Are the transistor count & die space savings really that important?

I try the other browsers fairly regularly. Always come back to brave.
Check the brave:// flags (?), and go through every option under settings.

I have the crypto off, but - looking more at the brave site (including the many problems), I'm beginning to err.... be convinced(!?).
Nope, and you'll still need a pretty beefy computer to run the trained data. Currently GPT-NeoX-20B, the "open source GPT3," requires 42 GB of VRAM, so you're looking at minimum a $5-6k graphics card (though a Quadro RTX 8000 is actually in stock so there's that). Or use a service like GooseAI.

Eleuther.ai or some other open source / open research developers will likely try to reproduce DALL-E 2 but it'll take some time and a lot of donated hardware and cycles.

Even with “hard” requirements in advance, things are always subject to change, or unforeseen requirements additions/modifications will be needed.

I don’t see why you can’t maintain the spirit of agile and develop iteratively while increasing fidelity, in order to learn out these things as early as possible.

Switched to Brave a few weeks ago after getting fed up with Mozilla, not sure how I feel about using yet-another-chromium browser but it’s fine so far. Posts like this help ease my mind a bit at least.
I don't see it as virtue signaling. The opposite almost: doing what you suggest would help one person out (and unfair - how is that person selected?).

As far as helping the bigger problem, it's a drop in the bucket and thus 99% for the feeling of righteousness. Besides, he didn't say his houses were empty or borderline slums. He's using his intelligence, capital, and capacity to take on risk and housing people.
Does that make Brave adware as well, since it ships with a suite of features fundamentally designed to serve you ads of their own creation?

keep the salary. if the goal it to change the world, to understand reality, to have an impactful life, have a good standard of living, etc. math is one of the hardest ways of achieving that. It's such a saturated field. Almost everything you can imagine has been done to the highest possible degree of abstraction. Every stone overturned except for things which may take a lifetime to even try to understand. Writing a blog post is probably way more fulfilling and also a doable challenge. A top mathematician may spend years working on a result that maybe if he is lucky be worthy of a footnote somewhere.

As a field I think math is well past its diminishing returns imho. It's like 'what was the last big philosophical discovery'...yeah...hard to think of one. Maybe the P zombie concept or the simulation hypothesis. But new and important books, fiction and non fiction, are being written all the time.
Obviously you need to randomly fold an edge and wrinkle a page too. Goddamn paper feeders.
This is only surprising if you're not familiar with product launches that result from R&D. In this case DALL-E 2 is the consumer-facing name, unCLIP is the name used during research and in this case for publication. OpenAI may also have a further internal codename that they used for the project. Currently DALL-E 2 access is limited but there are lots of reasons to believe that OpenAI will try to productize Dall-E 2 as an API. If you're selling a product, you need a product name.

It is a suggestion, people. The same way you're allowed to missspell words as much as you want despite the little red squiggly line thing, you're welcomed to either ignore or disable the little purple squiggly line thing.

It's going to be okay.
Thanks! That's what I was missing; salt!=sodium. 2.4g of sodium looks better.
5 floors was pretty standard across Europe, from Paris to Kyiv, in the age before elevators, as it was about the maximum height most folks were willing to walk up the stairs. Though, in Paris a lot of the 6th floors (where lots of the typically small studio apartments are found) were originally constructed as the maids' quarters.
But a variant of Dall-E that output a textured 3D character model would work fantastically well.
Not proven yet. Still needs another decade and the illusive good use cases. We need to see the pandemic impacts abated to see if "crypto" holds value.
Some services require a photo with valid EXIF.

So maybe a variant which makes it look like a photo - fake background, some perspective warping, bad lighting, with fake phone EXIF and selectable geolocation.
Yes! I love it, easily worth the few bucks and works seamlessly.
Comment of yours from the thread you linked:

> > I feel so happy and excited just thinking about the possibilities these techs are going to bring.
> Like what? All I can think of are the poor art students who I guess we should pay for their educations and will never have careers?

Sounds like you're not only asking why it is exciting, but you're also making a useless, mean, possibly offensive comment about art studies.

Why did you need to say "poor art students" and "will never have careers"? Certainly, the HN crowd don't like snarky/mean comments like that, it's why it's in the community rules.
Sure. You can host it yourself for commercial purposes and you don't have to open source anything in your product, just like you can with MIT.
The only difference is that if you want to create a service that offers JSDB as a service (compete with javascriptdb.com) you have to open source it. The idea is to make big cloud companies contribute back.
Seeing the recommendations on my YouTube home page, your statement is patently false.
Agreed. There is also the lack of a GC in WASM and Denos' use of existing web standard APIs.
I think we have a philosophical difference here. You seem to accept the idea of centrally planning a city down to the micro-management level. I reject it. Yes, as you say, "this policy says you *could* build an 11 story building without providing parking in any small township on Yonge Street".

The operative word is *could*. If there's market demand for it, you could and you absolutely should do it. If there isn't, you (the builder) won't build it, and you (the tenant) won't move in.

If you focus urban planning on the big picture and allow the market to determine how many parking spots a building needs, or whether a single family neighbourhood makes any sense next to subway stops, the housing crisis will literally solve itself with private money. Instead, we keep floundering while entire generations of our under-30s struggle in precarious housing, because we are unwilling to adopt a different approach. 3/4 of discussions about 'housing affordability' at my city's council meetings are about money pits and bandaids such as airBnB bans and 'affordable housing' (can we build 30,000 units of it with taxpayer money? Didn't think so, let's move on).

If you ignore the blah-blah and focus on actions, we the voters don't really want to solve this problem. If we did, we'd act on the obvious solution.
This is why I'm concerned about the word "inclusive" in the original tweet. I don't want to see the Americanisation (or worse, San Franciscoisation) of all Western cultures.

I worked at an Australian tech company that expanded its offices into USA tech hubs. Very quickly our American staff started complaining about non-inclusive phrases commonly used at the company - phrases like "guys" instead of "folks". In Australia "guys" is a gender-neutral term when used collectively. It's very commonly used and not considered non-inclusive by any Australian I know. But of course they forced the change and the word "guys" was effectively retired from conversation there.

Is it more inclusive to force an Australian company of largely Australian employees to adopt an American culture because of a few easily offended Americans on staff? Or is that less inclusive? It seems like forcing people to drop their own cultural affectations and assuming that your American ones are the de facto correct ones is (in a small way) rather imperialist.

Yes this is a minor example on the scheme of things. But I think it's illustrative.
Based on the comment you still have on that page (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31087247), I'd guess the issue is your phrasing. "Like what?" can be read as aggressive. "All I can think of" can be read as dismissive. This isn't to say that the downvoters are necessarily right, but you might consider paying more attention to the ways you phrase things to avoid misunderstanding.

For an even stronger example, consider the way you phrased this post: "Why are trolls downvoting my questions?" You'd probably get better responses with something that accepts the possibility that the downvoters are not trolls, but simply mistaken. Or possibly even right! I would suggest the more neutral "Why are my questions being downvoted?" if you are looking for honest advice.
Ok, we've changed to that from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llXa9iBMlkE above. Thanks!

tdodbc also comes with examples that are so far beyond the scope of a normal persons usecase, they honestly just feel like some greybeard doing the equivalent of a 10 minute long Tony Hawk combo. It's just such a pain in the butt to use, we had to fight teradata all the way till very recently.
Yes, but it needs a different name to create a clear space between Debian's comparative purity and the ideologically messy practicalities of actually getting the hardware working. Technically there's little challenge, the hard work on that part has been done.
It's authoritarian and the new heresy, full stop. It's no different than evangelicals who try to impose their morality on everyone else. "That word is sinful. Here's the proper word and idea." They also think it's simply about being a good person and defend it with that frame. To be a good person use the correct words and correct ideas as defined by us, the good people. If you disagree you are a bad person.

Unfortunately, it is out of the question. OpenAI trains on hundreds of thousands of dollars of GPUs and even then the trainings take two weeks. Also, as far as I know their training data (400 M image/caption pairs) is not available to the public!

PG is far behind SQL Server on ease of upgrade but the method described in this post is not the best practice right now, which I think is:

- physical restore to new cluster

- pg_upgrade the new cluster

- catch up on logical wal logs from old cluster

- failover to new cluster

- STONITH

I think the above was not open to them because of the limitations of their managed PG instance. I haven't used Azure but GCP managed SQL has loads of limitations. It seems very common and I think is a major (and undiscussed) drawback of these managed instance.

But the truth is that very few of the people who use PG want to hear that things are better in the MS SQL community for reasons of prejudice and as a result you're being downvoted unfairly for pointing out PGs relative backwardness here.
> build affordable housing

Lets build shitty buildings that will last for decades. Affordable housing is and will always be a horrible idea. Build and build until you get a surplus and suddenly tons of housing is affordable.
Our response to Covid will be recorded as one of the largest outbreaks of mass hysteria in history.
@omosubi, this almost slipped past my reply window.

I think you got a bad deal and saw the wrong side of it, and for sure
there are bad therapists around. That's why I pushed the formal
training thing a bit.

> I don't buy that therapists are good at actually solving people's problems.

You're right. It's a cliche, but they help people who want to change
solve their own problems. There aren't "therapists in general" just
individual ones. Most all of them are the wrong one for you.

> whatever zeitgeist feel good advice was common on Instagram

That's bad.

If you ever try again shop around mercilessly. Any real therapist will
give you a free initial meeting to see if the relationship is going to
work. Totally walk out and say "thanks but no" until it feels like
something is going on... what that feeling may be is that you hate
this person for touching a nerve, or something, but it will be
emotional.

> encourage you to sink deeper into whatever problems you have and not
address the root cause.

If you can articulate what you think the root cause is you're already
ahead. Sometimes that's months of work to discover. The root cause
can bring up really shitty stuff that makes you want to quit. And
what you think the root cause is might not be the root. Therapy is
not just 5Y analysis. Be prepared to find that some major code needs
rewriting.

> I imagine the majority of therapists are like this

As I said the majority of therapists are the wrong one for you. The
usual distribution. You're probably smart enough to know the
bell-curve already - some shit, some brilliant, many that are not for
you... a few that are. Good luck.
I think that's a bit of a false dichotomy. One could withhold judgment so as to not hold a belief either way. Some people may answer "I don't know" when asked if they believe something. They hold no conviction one way or the other. It's this curious state in between that provides the most potential for people to explore new ideas.

One could believe in things and not care about proving them to others, yet this will not convince others nor produce any evidence.

One could also hold the view that everything is false and not worth looking into unless someone else provides proof. This will not produce evidence either.

Obviously the range of how individuals approach things is continuous and not discrete like this. But I still think those willing to entertain ideas without accepting or denying them can better explore that topic and use those thoughts cross domains. A world without strict self imposed mental boundaries can be beneficial.
If you call local corruption productive.
It doesn't sound more intrusive than the existing red-squiggle for spelling errors.
Having your spouse not work is a sign of poverty. It means that if they worked, they wouldn't be able to bring in enough income to pay for childcare.

It is possible that you're just so rich their income wouldn't contribute to the family, but income is always useful - otherwise neither of you would be working.

Slerp is no binary operator, but suppose we only look at the two quaternions, then it is "commutative". You can swap both quaternions, but you must use (1-t) for the interpolation factor instead of just t.

Wikipedia[1] lists some equivalent formulas for quaternion slerp:

slerp(q0, q1, t) = (q0 * q1^(-1))^(1-t) * q1
slerp(q0, q1, t) = (q1 * q0^(-1))^t * q0

There you can see that quaternion products are used, yes, but the operation is also commutative, when using (1-t) instead of t.

When the order in online average computation is different, the t naturally adapts to the correct value, depending on the weights.

These arguments about commutativity and order are really just the same as for regular linear interpolation (LERP) and online average computation.

Yet here we are with Google (likely, again I can't confirm it but what are the chances that "fag" and similar words are not part of this list) imposing a US English view on the world. Even if it is just a recommendation you can ignore, slowly that influences you.
Bite the bullet and jump.

I wrote a long blog post about this called "Impossibility Space," if anyone is interested: https://www.sonyasupposedly.com/impossibility-space/

> There are social consequences to iconoclasm, regardless of whether challenging a given sanctified consensus turns out to be "correct" or "on the right side of history" in retrospect. You must be brave enough, foolhardy and cocky enough, to attempt the impossible — and you must endure the social cost — if you want to accomplish anything new. There's no other way to find out whether your idea will work, since you'll always be told that it won't.

This applies even if "something new" is just new for you, not new in general.

Yes, having a shipment of Harpoons would definitely change the calculations here.
As a learner myself over the past year, I also strongly prefer the flake workflow— the tooling design makes more sense, there's no implicit magic about where your inputs are coming from, and everything is pure by default. Not to mention the absolute delight that is the `--override-input` flag— being able to layer your project into multiple flakes and then trivially rebuild it with just one part overridden from a modified local source, so great.

But yeah, it's super frustrating that it's all still hidden behind experimental flags and the official documentation continues to suggest non-flake workflows, though. It's ready for primetime— commit to it please!

Second tune is really cool. I feel like the low pass filter is underused in older SID tunes. (Jeroen Tel's Kinetix has a really good LPF bass.) Did it have something to do with the difference between the two SID versions? Or maybe making sure the music stays intact through tinny speakers?
