Also, you have to keep stopping the spread, forever, or until you give up. It’s not going to be eradicated, it will keep coming back. Maybe they can still afford to lock down this time, maybe the next time too, but this is a losing strategy in the long run. Eventually it will go through the population and become endemic like it is in the rest of the world.
Strange rant. It's not about you editing your post in general. It's that your edit shows that saying "active accounts" when you really mean "accounts that have recently tweeted" is wrong, like the very title of this submission.
There’s plenty of evidence though that the Russian army is seeking to terrorize civilians, including bombing hospitals / schools and leaving mines and booby trapping homes of civilians, specifically because they are having trouble taking over the territory. It would be weird to me that a military unit can do what terrorists do and not be labeled that way just because they are officially part of an army and have modern equipment. That’s not something a “normal” army does to protect its territory. https://ctmirror.org/2022/05/16/designate-russia-a-state-spo...
I 100% agree. They are all just data to read from a flat file. I wish we could just pick one already.
No. The blockchain is not a data store. The blockchain is needed only when you need:

- global view of the state that is taken as truth by all participants (consensus)

- where anyone is allowed to make operations to change the state (permissionless)

- and all operations that change the state are agreed by all participants (trustless)

You don't need the blockchain to store your music collection. Any content-addressable filesystem can do that for you. But you do need a blockchain if you want to make a decentralized "top-40" list.
The USSR “occupied” Ukraine for most of the 20th century, aided and abetted by the Holodomor, so there’s no obvious reason they couldn’t again.

Russian state TV is awash with pundits who are asserting the Russian empire should be re-created in Ukraine and the Baltics, and that Ukrainians are subhuman. There’s plenty of reason to believe Putin wants his empire.
What hosting service you use?
What do you expect from China? Oppression on multiple levels is basically their most used tool.
I'm curious if Chinese people will fight back somehow, or like always turn their heads down like sheep.
> You don’t get to rob people of their basic human rights. Ever.

Pretty much every country on earth disagrees with such a binary statement, unless you can point me to one that doesn't have prisons.

(I'm not saying prisons are wonderful or arguing for/against them here, nor saying that everyone in each country agrees with the current policies, just pointing out that all of our countries have laws that say you DO get to rob people of their basic human rights in certain situations.)
But ultimately, the outcome is that IBM is a dinosaur corp and no one looks to them for technical leadership of any sort. They don't deliver and they're not well known for writing particularly good code. So that calls the value of the metric into question.
> Did anyone else glance at the title and get curious

Yes. Not about the "NLP" part, but about the improperly capitalized "Scrolls" part.

Recently I've been seeing a lot of capitalization changes in HN titles vs. the original page titles. I believe HN automatically adjusts submitted titles in some ways - I wonder if this is one of them. Or if it's a bookmarklet. Or human error.
Since everyone in this thread wants to jump down OP's throat about the quality of his web site, another interesting search engine is millionshort.com, which allows you to filter out the top N web sites from the results of your search. It's a great tool for looking past sites with good SEO; all you have to do is fiddle with the value of N.

For example, searching for "electronic music box" as /u/ajnin suggested, with the top 100K web sites removed from the results, filters out the following:

> These 23 sites were removed from your results:

> alibaba.com (1 result removed)

> aliexpress.com (1 result removed)

> allaboutcircuits.com (1 result removed)

> amazon.com (2 result removed)

> apple.com (1 result removed)

> bestreviews.com (1 result removed)

> ebay.com (1 result removed)

> etsy.com (2 result removed)

> facebook.com (1 result removed)

> instructables.com (2 result removed)

> reverb.com (1 result removed)

And the top result ends up being https://midiguy.com/.
The project seems pretty cool, and it seems like it'd be fun to add to my homelab, but I just don't have a need for it. I have a little server running Proxmox, so I can create as many hosts as need to play with things like k8s. I'm still tempted to buy one though for the novelty factor.
I think it may be one of those quotes that always has an earlier usage to find. According to https://thecritic.co.uk/this-too-shall-pass/, Lincoln was quoting Rumi, who was (probably apocryphally) quoting Solomon.
> I know it does some magic behind the scenes with the drawing to improve responsiveness.

The way I understand the technology : refresh time looks related to how many pixels you draw at once. When you write with a pen, very few pixels have to change state on a given unit of time (the pixels under the stylus) the "magic" behind fast writing on e-ink is to draw the pixels under the pen as fast as possible then if needed add details once the user stops writing.

The problem with your terminal is once you reach the bottom of the screen and you start scrolling : from now on, every new line will redraw the entire screen. Now you are exactly drawing as much pixels as any e-book which is … slow.

You would need a terminal without scrolling (or some mid-page scrolling). This could probably be done but you would probably have problems with a lot of cli programs.
Sure, but if you have an individually managed social trust graph built into the distribution network that's pretty easy to combat. Have a friend that's spreading trust to scammers? Reduce their trust value (or just stop trusting them), problem solved.
General loudness has limits since it can damage hearing, assume we are always below discomfort using damping if necessary. It is said that 6dB SNR would be enough to still follow a conversation, but there seem to be some exceptions to this.
Even if the system, ear, drum, hammer, cochlea and nerves are fully intact, older people seem to sometimes loose the ability to differentiate properly between different sources.
I don't assume you are old, this effect is quite complicated. I don't use a hearing aid, but I foolishly assume it will not improve SNR only general loudness.
Like most amplifiers would.

There are some known exceptions, such as musicians, who can differentiate quite well. Which lets us assume, we can better this by training hearing properly.

For this music seems to be a key, since you can try to focus on specific parts like single instrument and try to ignore others, even though they are all present. This is done by the calculative power of our brain and happens in the signal processing stage of it. Not a hardware problem. It even uses additional information.

During the pandemic lots of people wore masks and I had trouble understanding many of them well.
This isn't mainly a SNR problem, for me to get good differeniation seeing the persons mouth helps.

Sometimes I don't understand what people say, they repeat it and repeat it until my brain moves to the right place and everything is immediately clear.

I enjoy the occasional industrial death metal concert, here I noticed even with earplugs, shutting you ears with your hands, you can very well hear what a friend yells directly at you. Construction worker with earmuffs using insanely loud equipment, still exchange information by yelling.
So even if an insane amount of noise is present and then damped to safe levels, direct communication is viable if SNR is good enough.

The problem is the processing stage, which requires additional training.

At least that is my theory. I assume loudness in public is at appropriate levels otherwise people would complain.
Referenda have always been double-edged swords. They’ve been using by totalitarian populists since at least the Roman republic.

In most representative democracies, treaties have to be approved after the fact but they certainly do not need to be pre-approved before being negotiated. This is not more undemocratic than a spur-of-the-moment referendum.
Anyone heard when the Turing Pi RK1 modules will be available, at what price, and can we condition the board purchase on simultaneous delivery of quantity n RK1?

(I haven't been seeing any Raspberry Pi CM4 modules available lately, and I don't want the board collecting dust.)

(There's a JPEG of text on the Kickstarter page, saying something about them sourcing things, but it's under the section of 3rd party expansions like sensors, not under the compute modules section.)
Well, the neighbour that doesn't like my friends broke into my house repeatedly, stole my last food a couple of times, kidnapped several household members, raped my wife and my kid; and now threatens to burn the whole city down if I don't give up my new friends that protect my house.

So yes, lets' burn the city down, why should I live in hell and fear - it's better that no one lives, including the asshole neighbour.
I already said Elon was bullshitting.

Are you saying Twitter isn't bullshitting? You think that Twitter put in their best effort to get an accurate number?
"known to be incompatible"

Known to whom? People who regularly participate in the Julia forum/chat? Julia's composability relies on people agreeing on unwritten rules and standards.

In other languages, such incompatibilities are caught by the compiler. Even in other dynamic languages like Python or Javascript, it is now considered best practice by many to annotate types whenever you can. Like Julia, Haskell is also composable. Unlike Julia, it does not need to sacrifice correctness.
Except China isn't exactly communist. They're a "socialist market economy." Yes, the government exerts a lot of control and owns a great deal of industry, but there's also a significant private sector. It's basically state capitalism, closer to fascism with a blending of state and corporate interests.

Communism is not just another word for authoritarian. Totalitarian regimes come in a variety of economic flavors.
> I'd say almost all professionals deliberately avoid 80%+ of the language in practice.

I don't think is a specific thing of JS. The same happen with almost any language, product features...
The top minds and best paid people in the world are busy showing you ads (google) and delivering you junk food (uber &co).

They went from "we'll buy every single tesla produced and take over the world with self driving taxis" to "please buy mcdonalds through our app we have free delivery"
"FSD might be degraded due to weather"

and it still allows it to be engaged? Surely as a life critical system, allowing it to carry on in a known degraded state isn't a great thing?
>Libraries over frameworks.

I agree with this but it does have tradeoffs as well. Libraries, especially if they are many and small, can get out of sync a lot. I feel like I spend too much time on dependency maintenance.
I searched "best dress shoes reddit" as a test, and just got a random list of websites that had the word "shoes" on the page somewhere, including a Dinosaur Comic from 2008.

So... yeah. Won't exactly be my first choice of search engine in the future.
i think the cto is right. is the saving significant? if not, just focus on the building.
I do wonder how "fake" is calculated. Is @tweetsfrommydog fake? It's a real person making tweets that are funny and provide value to the platform, but it's not a real person as an individual tweeting their personal thoughts, are corporate accounts or parody accounts fake?
And right after that:

"The list above does not represent an exhaustive list of situations that may interfere with proper operation of Autopilot components. Never depend on these components to keep you safe."

The bubble will burst was the prediction done from many veterans. Is it the start?
"the P2P community established something like a tiny, lightweight communist bubble"

Yes, and that's the core of the problem. Things are pretty limited when the premise is "donating spare hardware and bandwidth."

"[Web3 follows] a heavyweight libertarian path: Everything should be monetized."

I don't know what these people think. Only traditional companies should be allowed to make money, and the rest of the world should donate their resources?

The conclusion of this piece sounds a bit arbitrary too.

P2P failed in the past because of the lack of monetization.

Web3 tries to solve this by adding monetization at the protocol level.

Adding something to a system to solve an issue that wasn't solved before can add complexity.

The author doesn't like complexity, so it's a failed attempt.

What?
Why did people ride in the first cars? They were slow, prone to breakdowns, expensive to operate.
I think search engines are broken, but the Internet itself is probably not "dead". It's just our accessibility to that information. That's not super helpful until we have better search engines (which steer us away from this SEO stuff), but the good news is that building a better search engine is easier than resurrecting the Internet. In particular, there's a good chance that a niche, naive search engine might be able to significantly improve accessibility (e.g., high rankings for pages that answer user queries in the fewest bytes).
AI Imagines – War Torn NYC
Used Midjourney and Laoin 400m for these. My goal was to see how these images made me feel. I'm curious if AI could be used in this way to create empathy, though perhaps images like this stoke more fear? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Alas they've ditched Lidar and are trying to replace radar with vision only.

Presumably this will be used to disguise the ensuing mass starvation as Covid deaths.
I imagine the harsh crack down is partly to blame. If you suspected you had COVID but testing positive would mean you, your family, and everyone in your apartment building would get sent to a recovery center.. would you report it? I would bet the inspectors themselves are spreading it.

If in the West we incentivized it however.. a few weeks forced holiday with free groceries..
There's also a "Schroedinger's China" problem here with the argument that China is covering up a massive number of deaths.

If they'd already been hammered by coronavirus and covered it up, then they'd have high levels of natural immunity and wouldn't need to be pursuing this zero covid policy.
The world is not simple good guys vs bad guys. Often it's bad guys vs bad guys.

> Each of the 400,000 installed panels required one litre of water to clean. A 15 days cleaning cycle required 124 million litres of water (enough to sustain 9000 people) while rain in the Cholistan desert is rare and far between. Providing such huge amount of water in desert terrain, became a challenging and daunting task for management team. Besides, the manual cleaning methods allowed setting of dust before it was re-cleaned.

> ...so there's an underground market for shipping baby formula from other countries to China at extortionate prices.

I have long suspected years ago that in the US mysterious, sporadic local news reports of a Wal-Mart, CVS, Target, or similar store getting wiped out of all baby formula or all of a certain brand/SKU were simply rings of people scooping it up for this arbitrage over eBay, similar resale/auction sites or even WeChat. It doesn't seem systematic, and was very arbitrary which towns/cities they hit and when, but I've always wondered what the real story was.
> Doesn't the first line answer the second?

To be clear, you're suggesting: "because people are uneducated about bitcoin and crypto, when one project fails they will incorrectly connect it to bitcoin. And that's bad for Bitcoin."

These events are great opportunities to educate ignorant people. > 0 such ignorant people will learn more about bitcoin and why it's not like crypto like Luna. Greater education is extremely good for Bitcoin and bad for scam coins - which rely on ignorance.
I own a dog treat company and have written a bunch of "Can dogs eat x" articles for SEO purposes, and I can tell you based on the research I've done that some of this info is iffy.

You've got cinnamon as being okay, but some cinnamon contains coumarin, which is toxic to dogs (it's only really dangerous in large amounts, but smaller amounts can cause stomach issues). There are two types of cinnamon, Cassia and Ceylon - Cassia has relatively high amounts of coumarin, while Ceylon has virtually none.

For beef you say not to give it raw, but in many cases that's fine. You also say not to give human food as regular part of their diet, but feeding meat, vegetable and grains is often better than kibble.

You also say not to feed beef bones, but raw bones are fine - it's cooked bones that should be avoided (because cooking weakens them and can lead them to splinter).

If you're going to give this kind of health-related information, you need to do a better job and make sure what you're saying is accurate.

severity of COVID or the proper response to it makes no difference. Zero Covid Policy is a _policy_ from the authorities. Changing it would mean admitting the authorities were wrong. That's not going to happen. human rights, health, spread of covid, none make any difference. The only thing that will make a difference is when political circumstances arise allowing the Zero Covid Policy to be modified without appearing as weakness.
I so badly wanted to use their managed databases, but they priced me out of it. It's so much cheaper just to manage the database myself, and thus far at least not that much more effort.

There are multiple examples online. Jacks which no longer do stereo but only one channel, or that require "fiddling" with the connection or rotating the plug, or the risks of leaving a plug inside a socket for a prolonged period of time, etc.
