It's a nice summary.

Last time I looked at it, Python had an awkward situation with with probabilistic programming packages. There's PyMC3 which is fairly robust and feature-complete, but mostly for static models. Simple things are easy, moderate things are (to me) hard. It also had a bit of an uncertain future; PyMC3 was reliant on Theano, then PyMC4 was conceived, based on TensorFlow, then abandoned in favour of supporting Theano, etc etc.

There's Edward and TF Probability, but somehow I never ever got on with it.

Then there's Pyro, backed by Uber, which again seems fairly feature-complete. Simple things were moderately hard, but hard things were doable. It is also based on PyTorch, which is certainly much easier (IMO) to use than TensorFlow, but still marginally harder than numpy. Also last time I looked, MCMC sampling was a bit missing.

NumPyro perhaps fits into the gap in the happy middle? Most of the power of Pyro, using more familiar numpy-esque (JAX) backend, with an emphasis on simplicity. I should give it a try.

A couple of large pannier bags will hold that. I cycle to the shops now for me and my partner and thats what I do.

You can also get cargo ebikes, but they cost a lot. Might as well just use the car if you need more space, but most of the time a couple of pannier bags works for me.

Immutable?

But React in JS is a blessing – it brought good thinking to messy world. And as a direct influence, JS will adopt immutable data structures – tuples and records.

You add it. You are responsible for your dependencies. You should already be getting notified of new releases, reading changelogs, etc, and bumping the pkgver in some repository is not arduous on top of that. The labor, split among everyone who does this, is very managable.

Why not just send the links. This would tip off Airbnb to patch it.
Swapping batteries is a neat idea. Unfortunately it is a safety risk as you can't know its health.

>>> If we find our collective sanity and allow travelling long distance at 80km/h that halves.

I'd never want to travel 500km at 80km/h. That is nonsense.
Also, having 30kW engine in a car on a highway is a life threatening risk, since you cant easily escape dangerous situations (overtaking other vehicles and acceleration at higher speeds takes way too long) - and we're not even talking about so absolutely hip and unnecessary SUVs or a fully loaded car.

But if so, why not try to camouflage it as something more generic, to try to avoid notifying Airbnb? I am tech savvy enough and have marketing notifications turned off, but I would assume that they are simply not honouring the setting somehow if I received an ad for Airbnb.

Now Airbnb knows to change their key or something if possible, and I'll be very suspicious of any notifications from any app in the future, especially Airbnb.
I think you can. you need to fine tune it and make it learn about a character. I've seen prompts about Darth Vader and the beans from among us produce decent outputs, so Dall E can totally learn how a specific character looks as long as it's in its training set atleast

I'm writing this from my Ubuntu desktop (LTE). Just a few months ago some update broke everything (graphics). Then somehow I fixed it, but it broke again on restart. It took best part of a week for me to fix.

You might say it wasn't the best distribution for reliability, or that graphics with NVidia are always an issue etc. but the fact remains that, for me, for an OS to "just work out of the box", MacOS is much better.

[I'm also not a Linux n00b, been using it for over a decade, though not an expert for sure]

I'm affiliated with Weaviate, so maybe nice to get this out here for the record :)

We call Weaviate a "vector search engine" (i.e., we prefer "vector search engine" because it describes the type of database) since around Aug, 2020

Github: https://github.com/semi-technologies/weaviate/tree/a3967aff5...

The reason was simple; our community started to say that the mixed vector and scalar filter search capabilities were what they liked most.

Also, our benchmarks are available for quite some time here: https://weaviate.io/developers/weaviate/current/benchmarks/a...

They are based on ann-benchmarks.com but adjusted for full databases.
I don't understand how your response follows from the points I made.

In any case, people who need a package should add it to their distributions. This is what we should normalize. Especially for users like developers who depend on software libraries, who already have the necessary skillset and motivation.
> Lowering the effort bar for content creation and generation is, in some ways, going to cause a deluge of low-quality/mid-quality content to be generated.

This is not a problem, the issue is with Steam of whoever curates this content for us, with some good filters you can avoid the problem. My first program and game was garbage but it was not on GitHub or Steam to bother anyone, so the issue is not that people have access to good tools (I was using some Visual Studio for students edition) the issue might be that maybe some services have bad filters.

For new indie devs, please use whatever tools make your vision , publish them, ignore the haters, you will probably not make a living from Patreon or donations but if you love what you doa nd makes you happy that is the important thing.
Got it too, from India
I see this sentiment everywhere outside the tech first ecosystem. In the generalization of 'workers'/'engineers' v/s 'supervisors'/'managers', programmers are often seen as just workers. For whatever reason, an MBA or even a BBA is seen as an officer/supervisor.

Even product teams at tech first companies tend to represent this dogma. There are exceptions but the programmers are workers dogma is prevalent in this world. This is the main reason for suppressed pay for programmers and software engineers in all other industries except tech. Because of this, these other industries will never be able to catch up on the areas of hardware/software interfaces, let alone pure software craftsmanship. On the contrary, the software craftsmen are now learning the tropes of the non-software world and turning craftsmen in those areas as well.

So yeah, Ford might make a fast car, they will almost never be able to build a software driven car, which is the car of the future.

I helped introduce React at UXPin, and that was in Q4 2015. By that point it had already been broadly hyped for at least a year.

The parent comment is broadly correct though. AirBnB couldn't have been a React website in 2012 if React's initial release was May 29th, 2013.

no, but I've used some descriptions as prompts (mostly on Craiyon) and got quite acceptable results. Plain descriptors like how you are standing in an open field to the west of a white house, with a small mailbox visible produced multiple usable candidates (if you didn't mind some quirky impressionism). 'A maze of twisty little passages, all alike' gave me all 2d mazes, but adding '3d first person, photorealistic' gave some entertainingly weird choices.

Haha I considered this as a possibility for why it was sent... I don't ever open their app otherwise, I only ever installed it to receive messages from a host on a trip.

At the very least they might have wanted to understand a baseline for how many people will open a notification just to dig into the app and try to disable future notifications, regardless of how annoying the text in the notification was.

Yes, because of immigrants.

They first show up sometime in their 20s or 30s, have more children than the average for the country, then their children have more children than the average too.

When you look at the demographics of people who are third or later generation immigrants the demographics look apocalyptic.

The west is the first fully parasitic society which can't survive without constant colonialism of human capital from the rest of the world.
Fascinating link, thank you!
On that note though: How are the horizontal bars (first one right below the introduction) made? My guess is that they gathered all colours from all pixels, made a histogram, and then converted that into a horizontal stacked bar. However, the ordering seems weird, as some colours look like they appear multiple times (say for example the almost black-ish regions), disproving my histogram hypothesis. Then again, that may be due to image compression. And ordering the colour vectors would highly depend on the used colour space & the used partial order.
I similarly stumbled over the image-version of these bars in section "The colours within a single object" further down, which I just don't quite understand how they're made.

Does someone have insight on the methodology or maybe a link to a paper? The present methodology section seems to focus on object similarity.
This is a long post and I didn't notice while reading it that it was coming from Tailsacale itself.

Nice project, however I’m worried about their scope (reimplementing the MacOs APIs?) being too large for their team, to achieve that level of ‘finessse’ a billion-worth company has made decades achieving.

Moreover in my opinion the contributor pool might be thin, most potentially interested users would prefer using MacOs, and most linux users being notoriously not fond of the lack of configuration. Happy to be proven wrong!
You can be mediocre in countries with realistic health care policy. By definition most people will be average. To not have your society be able to adjust to that reality is a below mediocre strategy.
I'd be keen to be party to this - off the back of the recent Fusion 360 fiasco i've met a few others interested in this.

Currently researching geometric modelling kernels but collaboration in the community and bringing focus would solve this... even if it's better awareness and marketing so that solvespace folk and brlcad folk (and more!) aren't doubling up.
Maybe! You're certainly correct that there's a difference between knowing Lean (or a given proof assistant) vs. knowing mathlib (or some specific library). It doesn't seem to me that Codex has much of an idea about the mathlib codebase, since it e.g. invented and used "tangent_space_at_identity" out of the blue. Library-specific training would improve on this, of course.

I would reach for the usual code search tools for getting familiar with a library. For example, in Coq you have the "Search" and "Print Hint" commands which let you search for terms and instances, respectively. I imagine Lean has something similar.
That would actually be sad
How much of a concern are fakes? Or is it not worth the effort for the low price difference from the raw materials
Oh could the attacker get information about whether or not I opened the app? Is the same key used to send notifications and access metrics that Firebase collects?
yeah, i was kind of thinking, you save some money on heating if you're in a colder climate, but spend more on a/c in the summer.

but i think it's prob important to put a number on it. like.... the average american will pay $300 more in electric bills per year, starting this year 2022, climbing $30/yr for the next... however many years we have left on earth -- say, 10 or 20.

b/c when i see headlines saying, "The cost of climate change will be 1 GAZILLION dollars today, and even more each year that goes by" -- i'm like.... and? i'm not paying for it, so why should i care?

at least, that's what i suspect most people think. it's just kind of an irrelevant headline for most people, i suspect, if they're just trying to pay bills, keep their job, not sink into despair, etc.

if people could understand, ok, i can pay $200 in gas carbon tax this year, or $500 in electric bill tax... i think i'll take the gas carbon tax for $200, Alex.

and, maybe, everyone could have a better chance of understanding that they are at an ever-increased risk of winning the global warming tax lottery -- they might lose their car / house / job / family / etc.

It produced a stagnated society, which fell behind the rest of the world and was conquered by the british as punishment. And will be conquered by the next society that does embrace inner turmoil and change, creating competition.

Got it as well. Sweden. What I noticed was that the airbnb logo was red insured if Grey in the notification. Could it be a test of changing the notification logo color?
Mmm, but housing is usually more expensive around here, except for SV and some other hot spots in the US.

US listings have plenty of houses for about 150k, which is unheard of in my low income area. And any blue collar american is making way more than me or my peers.

Services in most EU good, groceries are cheaper and better average quality for what everyone who's done shopping in both places, and some other stuff too. But in general I'd say that unless you go to Switzerland most euroa have lower disposable income and harder access to housing.

Even flats for 150k are old and in bad shape. You'd have to get very far from the city to get something nice for 150k and good luck with Internet and having services around.
Maybe the uncanny valley for eyes are deeper. Our brains might have evolved to notice eyes more.

Just speculating though, there might be a technical reason too.
As another commenter mentioned, it's at least a good marketing campaign, causing me to open the app for the first time in months. Or it might be to gather a baseline of how many people react to their notifications, regardless of their contents? (Perhaps to immediately go to the notifications settings to disable them)

Edit: if the notification is sent by an attacker, does the attacker get access to firebase metrics as well? (Guessing they at least contain info about how many people opened the app)
Hard to answer without more info, so I’m going to make some assumptions, YMMV. Depending on the area and situation, $150k could be reasonable, or ludicrous.

If it’s significantly above their personal expenses and you are uncomfortable with it, I would ask myself if they are cofounders or employees.

You should have a candid conversation about what the seed money is for. It could be the case that they never considered your perspective, and this is a good opportunity to get aligned on the topic.

Side note, salary disparities between cofounders are a potential future source of resentment.
> All examples in the original comment are people at the top of the profession.

And how does that invalidate the argument? "Others made the same mistake!" - Yes, and?

How is this relevant to the argument? (Rhetorical question - it is not)

> And the question was "who paid for the great music of the period".

OP wrote "there were a heck of a lot of great composers in that period". Which is correct - most of the works were from regular people. They were not as outstanding as Mozart or Bach, but still produced a lot of the great music. People like Johann Pachelbel, to give an example. Not in the same league as Mozart, but there were many of the same type and they produced most of the music of the period.

I play recorder and violin and most of the sheet music I play is from those more normal people.

Oh and the parent (buscoquadnary) is not quite correct when he only points to "patronage". A lot, if not most of those people made money with performances (Mozart too! - https://www.biography.com/news/mozart-pauper-lost-fortune) and with teaching.

There might or might not be a market for AI art (who knows with art, everything people consider desireable has a legitimate market), I don't know because I don't have the slightest clue about art besides "I like that". I am sure so that stuff created by humans will always something specual about it that a soulless machine (heck, that sounds like something straight outbof Terminator) cannot reproduce. I think there will always be artists, collectors and hobby artists pursueing manual creation of things, maybe even more so the more AI / digital art we have, even if as a simple counter weight and outlet of creativity.
So frustrating that there's no way to access this tech without putting your name on a list and waiting an unspecified amount of time (months?). It's the sort of thing many people would pay well for, even at its current stage of development.
It's equally, if not more, utopian to assume that progress down any one route will automatically lead to the imagined pinnacle of the entire discipline. Progress isn't smooth or automatic, and we often hit dead ends, having to try new techniques to get over plateaus.

It's equivalent to looking at 19th Century automobiles and asserting that they'll be able to travel to other stars by the end of the decade.
You would be offering a product defined by what it didn't provide, rather than what it did (i.e no internet and no cell reception).

I can't think of a similar offer, since it's something you can achieve for yourself (given enough willpower) just by turning off your phone and not taking a device.

Would people pay for something they can have for free? Many wouldn't for sure, but would many? Even if they lacked the will power, would they be too embarrassed to admit they needed your service?

If there are no similar businesses that could be a sign it won't work.
