What are we supposed to get from that chart? It looks like a subset of the data performs differently from the set? That's not useful information. Via regression to the mean the larger data set will always be more "normal" either lower or higher than the smaller data set.

If you wanted a good comparison you'd have to be comparing an equal sized subset of the DJI that only included boards with low diversity. Junk conclusions from junk data. When it was actually studied with rigor, e.g. the study you linked to (https://jfin-swufe.springeropen.com/articles/10.1186/s40854-...)

I don't think that's true - have a look at this analysis here:

Those slow and inaccurate models at the bottom of the graph are the VGG models. A resnet34 is faster and more accurate than any VGG model. And there are better options now -- for example resnet34d is as fast as resnet34, and more accurate. And then convnext is dramatically better still.
Do you mean anti-lock brakes?

But yeah, most cars have sensors for all those things.
I agree, the core of the issue that real estate investors are incentivized to act this way. Whatever makes them more money is going to win every time, which is why when the things that make them the most money are pushing costs and problems onto the public (and the housing market in general) we need regulations put in place to restore order.

I imagine a lot of the problems could be improved with zoning changes limiting the amount of properties that can be rented out for short terms, and by shoring up tenants rights to cover gaps in protections for renters.

You are free to buy or produce a hard dry sheep's cheese that isn't made in Emilia-Romagna. The name 'Parmesan' is a portmanteau of parts of the region (Parma, Reggio Emilia). The name is the region so saying 'only thing made here can have *the name of the region*' is absolutely not "silly protectionism".

I want to see a fully-synthetic multimodal social media influencer that is nearly indistinguishable from reality. She does the same thing as the real ones except everything is completely artificially generated (housing, clothes, vacations, social circle). All text/image/video posts are completely synthetic but internally-consistent with this fabricated persistent universe. The only real things would probably be product placement. If you’re a brand, you’d just make a new online influencer instead of finding an organic one.

There's the literal definition of the Turing test, as described above, which doesn't actually work for proving any sort of intelligence.

Then there's the conceptual argument of the Turing test, which we can turn into a test of intelligence. It relies on the idea that we can abstract the mind into a "thinking" black box which takes inputs and outputs. And then posits that any black box which can't be distinguished from an actual "thinking" black box may as well be "thinking".

Passing the literal Turing test is a sign that some humans can be tricked for some small domain over some small period of time. Passing the conceptual argument that the Turing test relies on shows that there are non-human entities which cannot be separated from humans on the basis of how they interact with a human (through some limited medium).

The repetition, duration and prizes are just practicality; prizes incentivize people to try, repetition ensures that the results are robust, and duration ensures that the domain the AI can be tested over is equivalent to a humans.
Yes, almost everything ended as temporal or bitemporal model. Pain to work with. Even for simple questions like "What is the customer #1234 company name?" the system needs to know when are you asking.

Probably depends on what kind of soup you're throwing it into. But yes, parmesan rinds are great for adding a bit of savory/umami/"funk" into your soups and stews. I keep a bag of them in the freezer and grab a few whenever I'm simmering something savory or meaty. Unused parsley or cilantro stems work well, too, as a soup toss-in.

Not sure if it would work well with rice. I tend to use bay leaves, star anise, or even ginger peels/skins for rice. All of those are more aromatic.
Many of these seem dubious but there seem to be no sources so there's no way to check what they actually refer to. Pretty annoying.
I saw a note on Salesforce's Web training site to the effect of "ALBERT EINSTEIN used under license from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem." And there on the main page was a little Alegria Albert, dancing with the Alegria people and Salesforce's nonbinary spaceperson mascot, advertising the company's Einstein™ AI service.

All of this strikes me as tacky and twee. Were the real Albert alive today, he would not want something as stupid as a statistical classifier running on a computer to wear his name as a badge of "intelligence". What is the difference between a cheesy marketing campaign like this, and the tacky associations the Hebrew University of Jerusalem's legal team purports to avoid?

Answer: Salesforce has money, and the licensing fees would make a nice little addition to the university's endowment.
I too turn it off but mostly because I think the system is abused for cases that Id frankly rather not be involved with and not take sides. I have zero faith that the party that the police consider the “kidnapper” is actually the kidnapper. Not unlike how the sex offenders list is filled with people who did innocuous things like urinating in public or an 18year old having sex with her 17 year old boyfriend. It’s something but they’re no threat to me.

They don’t realize that they simply devalue these labels by using them in this way. Amber alerts are often just custody battles between both biological parents. While one party may be in the wrong, there’s no life being threatened and I have little faith that the government is on the same side I’d be on.

Tesla is on rocky footing, imo. I own a Tesla, and have for 8 years, but I'm not convinced I'd buy another.

They build low quality cars that have high range and a pretty good charging network.

They have a self driving program that's basically going to kill people constantly.

Elon Musk is increasingly unhinged and unpredictable.

They were so close to being an amazing company. They nailed the direct to consumer sales piece, and the long range EV piece.

But culturally, it sounds like they are a nightmare to work for, and they are rapidly losing the lead they built themselves.

I don't want them to fail, I think there is still potential there, but watching Elon absolutely lose his mind that this is some sort of conspiracy makes it really hard for me to want them to succeed.

One thing I miss about my old place in the city was the ridiculously expensive market on my block that carried all of the "real" cheese. The real stuff was so fantastic and flavorful that I usually used far less of it, which partially offset the cost.

I also got a $20 jar of pasta sauce there once. I was embarrassed at how much I paid and didn't tell my wife. After her first taste, her reaction was "OMG, what is this? It's so good!". I took a taste and was blown away. Literally every taste just amazed me, so we kept getting it. I only recognized it by the label and never learned the brand, much to my chagrin (and my wallet's delight) when I moved away and never found it again.
Is it good for the economy though?

Resources are used depending on prices. If the costs for providing bandwidth are low and everything else is expensive, but the prices are the other way round, then the economy optimizes to waste resources. That's not sustainable.
> I think based on that conversation (and sure, call me biased) the "invasion of privacy" concerns were way overblown

I mean, that's why this calls for a probe, right? I also suspect they were overblown - but that's why you look into something.

> I think that the "invasion of privacy" ship must have already sailed, the government has your photo ID in a database, and it's already on record there forever.

I absolutely disagree with this framing of the question. It's false equivalence to suggest that once something exists somewhere "unprivate" that any other system would also be fine. We are going to need to dig into systems and understand if the reduction in privacy fulfills a necessary function and push back on all the systems where that isn't true.

There's no magic in "public" v.s. "private" companies - but each new layer introduces new potential for mismanagement and so you need to ask everyone to "get to the bottom" of what happened.

I have the same setup. The image quality is noticeable. People comment on it regularly, and others using DSLR webcams can always spot it due to the perfect optical blurring of the distance. It took me a while to get it to work reliably and I annoyed people getting it working right, but once I did it’s fairly solid. Sometimes the video capture freezes and sometimes the camera even shuts down, but these are rare and I know how to fix them in a second or so. I am a little disappointed that two years into broad remote work and virtual life it’s not gotten easier to have a high quality audio and video capture.

I wouldn't really say they behave the same. They have the same interface, so it doesn't take much to send to a remote node vs the local node, but there are a lot of details in the behavior that are clearly different, as is the nature of the beast. With a local process, if you monitor it, and receive a kill signal, you know it's dead; with a remote process, you may get a process died signal or a connection died signal; if the connection died you can't know if the remote process is dead or alive. That's new behavior and can be tricky sometimes.

"But I don't think it's fair to criticize someone for using 'the Turing Test' colloquially as a catchall for saying 'you probably didn't notice this output was machine generated, therefore you might want to adjust your priors on the answer to the question, "can machines think?"'"

The colloquial meaning of "pasted the Turing test" has come to be "has been able to demonstrate intelligence when put to some serious, systematic testing". That may be switching that "has been able to fool people when they didn't look hard". That might be changing but I don't think it's changed yet and until it's changed, I'll protest 'cause that's terrible change imo.

If they are handling billions in trades per day that means trade volume is up high.

A small personal wallet may not matter, but the combined value of all wallets not involved in those trades does matter.

The weird thing is, I don't see that much of a price difference between high-end "domestic" parmesan cheeses and the proper Parmigiano-Reggiano. The Saravecchio Parmesan (that's the Wisconsin domestic you're referring to, I assume) is about $17.99/lb, and the real, imported stuff is about $20/lb--even cheaper at places like Costco. So why not just get the real thing?

Maybe the blockchain crypto-anchor that creates a digital 'twin' for physical items would then create that "anchor" (like creating a bitcoin) that can then be linked (traced back) to its source (and intermediate steps like reselling/processing) when the cheese is finally sold in some form?
I’ll add that the accounting side can get complicated really quickly. You end up with lots of different scenarios. Earned but unbilled: out of bundle call charges, for example. Billed but unearned: a paid in advance monthly fee, for example - this may need to be recognised as a percentage per day. Etc etc. So much to take into account when feeding to ledgers.

Tangentially related -- My wife recently had to provide her SSN, DoB and her fingerprint scanned by a third-party company [https://www.printscan.com/about-us/], which is "owned, and operated by active and retired Law Enforcement Officers". We both felt really uncomfortable providing such sensitive information to a third party company, but had no choice because Florida board of medicine [https://flboardofmedicine.gov/] uses PrintScan as a partner to do background checks. The fee was $125 for fingerprint scanning at one of their locations.

According to that company's 'About Us' page, "PrintScan’s certified fingerprint technicians undergo extensive background checks before being cleared with the FBI, NYS Department of Criminal Justice Services, Florida Department of Law Enforcement, and Homeland Security."

I looked up on the FBI website to see if they provide similar background check service, and sure they do for $18! I have a hard time figuring out why FL board of medicine uses a third party service instead of FBI to do background checks, and also wondered why shouldn't FBI background check be enough/sufficient for criminal activity (i.e. don't states share their criminal records with FBI?). All of this is to say that the existence of companies like PrintScan--and the fact that one of the state governments uses it--is definitely concerning to me.
The difference is today, they are subjected to a battery of interviews, tests, and rudimentary psychological evaluations to make sure they know Java or HTML, and are a "culture fit", meaning they have the personality of a smiling Alegria person from the company's advertisements and not that of a living human being.

>he receives 4000+ applications on a job and nobody in Europe should consider this career

Why would you assume he's trolling? In some EU countries the market is insanely competitive due to great free schools churning out coders like crazy due to the tech hype, plus tons of skilled immigrants from developing nations trying to break into the market, so companies are very picky since they get bombarded with applications, so people with little experience or failing the culture fit or whatever arbitrary metrics are used, can easily fall through the cracks and not find a job despite being talented.

The high demand you hear is true, but only for experienced seniors and, since nobody wants to take in juniors and train them this creates a bottleneck of artificial scarcity despite the high supply of less experienced devs.
