We normally see Mario's world from an external vantage point that doesn't exist in his.

Imagine a normal brick in our world, what we see are projections of the outside surface, but we of course can't see inside the brick, not without breaking it at least, but then you end up with a series of smaller objects that you can only see from the outside, again.

Likewise, Mario wouldn't be able to see the shapes we see because we're looking at the totality of them, the outside and the inside, all at once, because we're 3D, but they are not.

He would only be able to see the outside, which in his case are the lines making up the contours of the bricks, goombas, etc.
> That seems tenuous. I don't think anyone can prove what Alex Jones believed.

“Prove” in this context means “convince a jury that it is more likely true than not”; legal proof is not logical/mathematical proof, and, among legal standards of proof, the main civil standard (“preponderance of the evidence”) is lower than the standard required for criminal conviction (“beyond a reasonable doubt”).

Beliefs and other mental states are routinely proven in court under both the criminal and civil standards. The arguments that this is impossible rely on concepts of “proof” that are not applicable to the legal environment.

My fault. The install script refuses to install a release more than 30 days old in order to prevent downgrade attacks, but I failed to push a new release in the last 30 days.

Yeah, that provision of the install script is absurdly paranoid. No one will ever actually try to perform a downgrade attack on Sandstorm. OTOH the time limit has had the side effect of forcing me to push regular releases over the last 5.5 years (since the company shut down). So, I hesitate to juts remove the check, for fear it will make me lazy.

I should have a release up in an hour or two, or you can edit the shell script as ocdtrekkie points out.

EDIT: Done. Installer should work now.

One of the lawyers made in the previous case what I consider an interesting argument: Alex Jones claimed under oath that his show reaches (off the top of my head) about a hundred million people. So the lawyer argued that Alex Jones should pay $1 for every person who heard him lie about Sandy Hook.

By this measure, if I intentionally harass someone on Twitter I'd have to pay the victim about $50 (on a good day). Since Alex Jones has a much larger following, he'd therefore have to pay more proportional to that.

I found that line of reasoning... well, reasonable. But then again, I'm not impartial here.
Do people still use SMS?

I haven't for many years, for sending (except for one time I wanted to test a modem driver SMS function).

I regularly use Signal, Telegram and Google chat and used to use whatsapp until it was banned by my employer but the only time I ever use SMS is to receive automatic authorisation SMSs

You’re ignoring survivorship bias. Bad market makers don’t last long, precisely because it’s possible to lose a lot of money.

More realistically, a strat without edge gets eaten alive by costs, or by toxic flow (as other MM are either better at pricing or faster at getting out of the way).

But yes a decent HFT MM will have down and out circuit breakers.

> knowingly spreading lies that damage someone's reputation is called slander, and it's not protected by the first amendment

Only in spoken word is it slander. Written it'd be libel, whereas defamation covers both. The lies have to be about regarding factual matters, not just odious opinions.

> neither is shouting "fire" in a crowded theater,

That's a bad example from an overturned case that created an overly broad standard, which is why you shouldn't use that as an example of something not protected:

I suspect that it will vary by field -- perhaps this is normal for psychology, but looking at recent accepted papers from the same journal, they mostly had 60-70 citations. Such a dramatic deviation from the "norms" of the venue is at least a yellow flag, but I would hesitate to say that it's necessarily a red one.

In CS research, this many references in a peer-reviewed work would be a red flag for me, however.

If it were an NSF grant proposal, then it would actually be fairly few -- for whatever reason grant proposals might have 300+. So, the context is very important when evaluating citation prevalence.
Ask HN: Where do I find a Product Management coach?
I've worked in startups for years leading in various capacities in and around product, but have not yet learned the "ropes" of product management, which is what I'd like to hone in on. And while I can probably get that experience at a big tech company, I do enjoy the more chaotic / creative environment of startups.

I'm looking for a PM coach to help me speed run the entire product management role, from strategy, roadmapping, managing stakeholders, dev cycles, etc etc.

Where can I find one?

As a net, however without storage they will be relying on exporting energy when renewables are generating and importing it when they aren't

There's plenty of demand across Europe for energy, so that's still a great thing, but they need those decent interconnects (and/or storage, or industry that can work with varying supply -- e.g generate green hydrogen when renewables are at excess, don't generate when there's lower demand)
In the context of needed a specific outcome in finite time, a legal process can never be certain of anything. We depend on process like juries to come to a good enough conclusion.
> All I want to do is look at my phone and consume more content.

I found myself in a slump recently. One day I noticed I'd spent a few hours just gawping at Stories, Shorts, Reels, etc. And I'd done it for days in a row, staying up later and later as my mood disintegrated.

As I got more tired, I noticed my interactions with people suffered. I consider myself an introvert, but actual hermitage eats at your soul. It's much easier to feel happiness with someone.

I have willpower issues, and I have the same problems as everyone else, but I think bottomless pits of meaningless "content" are an absolute negative in my life. They seem omnipresent now but I try to avoid them.
I suspected this, which is why I accounted for it – the point is that if Apple started getting enough bad press, they would have to put Apple ID verification in their stores, because their customers are the people who pay for Apple products.

Google's customers are mostly the people that get to show you ads. So they don't seem to care about even the paying users for their products. And it's sad that Apple seems to be going the way of trying to be an ad platform as well.

You're making up a narrative for why suppressing free speech is acceptable in this instance, not discharging the notion that free speech was, in fact, suppressed.

The fact that a conspiracy talk radio guy can get hit with a billion dollar fine for some off-hand nutso claim (that he subsequently recanted!) is a very unpromising barometer for the health of free speech in our country.
I am not sure I follow. My point was that strikes have not really targeted civilian population, they targeted electrical grid.
Yeah, understood it's a lagging indicator, but most of those US companies you mention (Peloton, Snap, Shopify, Carvana) are in the "unprofitable VC-funded camp". Salesforce and Microsoft obviously aren't, but their numbers are also much, much smaller and the amounts are a really teeny percentage of their overall workforce. Zillow is a bit of a special case because of their complete f'up with flipping houses. Oracle feels like the only one really comparable to me, but perhaps I'm just showing my personal bias that I'd really wish Oracle would lay off everyone and go under, but I digress...

I guess my main point was that, even with recent layoffs, feels like most of those folks wouldn't have had much difficulty getting snapped up by other companies, especially in engineering (not saying it wasn't disruptive to those involved). But once you start laying off 20,000 here and 10,000 there, you get to the musical chairs point where some folks are going to be left without a chair for some time.
I have a thread on Twitter where I've been keeping track of times that I've run into this.

>Note that in times of war, women were handing out white roses, not putting on their combat boots.

True.

>The rich and powerful were likewise found nowhere near a battlefield.

False; see the traditional sorting of European aristocrats' sons (oldest is heir, second joins military, third joins clergy). To a first approximation, every single member family in Britain's landed gentry and peerage lost someone in WW1.
Related: the "nuclear manhole cover" [1] (actually a 900 kg piece of armor plate) which may have accelerated to several times Earth's escape velocity over the course of a few meters (tens of millions of g's which is definitely impressive for such a heavy object). It was likely vaporized due to compressive heating before escaping Earth's atmosphere, however.

(I'm rather amused by the idea that some manager type evidently thought that a hunk of steel might contain a nuclear explosion in what was in essence a very large cannon!)

Howdy, I'm on the Shopify team that is working on both pitchfork and a few different performance-improvement projects for Ruby. There's a ton of activity around Ruby performance right now!

I think we're entering a period of increased experimentation and rapid evolution as demonstrated by projects like YJIT[1][2], improved inline caching[3][4] and Object Shapes[5] (also used by V8), and variable-width allocation[6][7], and smaller improvements like better constant invalidation[8]. Significant investments in TruffleRuby[9] are still going on by Oracle, Shopify, and other companies.

And recently, Takashi Kokubun gave a talk at Ruby Kaigi about the future of JIT compilers in Ruby that gives a peek at a whole new set of optimizations Ruby can work on (as well as some performance comparisons against other interpreted languages)[10]. You may be surprised to see how well Ruby (with the JIT enabled) performs compared to Python 3.

All of which is to say, I think there's quite a bit of performance improvement being made in recent Rubies, and that trend will likely continue for quite some time.

update And I forgot to mention that some very notable computer science researchers and their teams are working in the Ruby community now![11]

Yeah, Kant wasn't a fan of 'law' in the legal sense, but natural and moral law does respect property rights. I'm not really aware of a deontological argument against IP.
This is actually a legit distinction and a jury could base their decision on this. However, the matter is entirely up to the jury and in this case they decided they did know what he thought and there's not much that can be done about it.

It could well be reduced on appeal and it's unlikely they can pay that much, however.

Interesting! Looking forward to trying it out. I won't consider paying for it until it's at least FOSS though, like IntelliJ or PyCharm. I paid for those 2 products and those 2 products alone solely because they are free and open source (I can't get shafted by a sudden change in licensing and can switch to a functionally equivalent free version on a whim).

I'm disagreeing with the language you are using to characterize models. "copying from memory" implies that there is something being copied, and a memory that you are copying it from. I am pointing out that LLMs do not do this. It's not how they work.

If you polled 1M random English speakers randomly and asked them whether or not a system that "just sort of repeating and copying from memory" could produce completely novel answers in response to completely novel questions, I suspect that the overwhelming majority would respond by saying no.

Similarly if you asked 1000 people working on LLMs whether they work by "copying from memory", I suspect nearly all would say no. It would be accurate to say they are "generating text via a probabilistic model of language, which is encoded in the weights of a neural network", but there really is just no sense in which the models are "copying" anything.

That being said, these models do "copy" some text in the sense that they can reconstruct some strings from their training input. For example every LLM I have played with can recite the first few paragraphs of A Tale of Two Cities verbatim. But that's a capability they have _in spite of_ their actual design, not because of it.

Conversely, can you imagine the blowback if this were discovered to be the case?

The first amendment binds only the government, not private torts. It has never applied to libel, slander, fraud, or a host of other things either. Bringing it up in this context, especially as a one-line throwaway, is an act of extreme bad faith. No sane definition of "free speech" precludes accountability for one's words or their tangible effects.
This is a good verdict - defamation in the media is a very serious problem. It's unfortunate that it took a person like Alex Jones to convince people of it. If anything he should not be taken seriously. Those who are taken seriously have gotten away with much worse by merely apologizing or correcting themselves (as he did as well).

As for the amount - the highest fine paid by Wall Street firms for the 2008 crisis was less than $100M. One of those numbers is unjust for sure.
