Not much has changed.

It's generally regarded as preferable to try and gently guide the pitchforks away from squishy human elites, though.

Robots and the inevitable march of technological progress are both good scapegoats for policymaking that very deliberately expands the precariat.
Over the past few years, I've worked on making the easiest spaced-repetition system. This is perfect for people studying memory intensive topics like med students or gmat prep. But anyone looking to retain information better can benefit from this.

Spaced-repetition is an effective memory technique focusing on review at dynamic intervals over time. The review interval becomes shorter or longer based on the amount of times remembered correctly. By using Supermind, you'll get access to the easiest and most seamless way to use spaced-repetition learning. It's a technique proven to work with decades of research.

I was thinking the former. One does not casually fuck around with big capacitor banks and live to talk about it.
It’s not really much different than doing something like citing Stack Overflow or a book in your code comments.
Everybody should just install Signal and be done with this nonsense. Teach children that when they use Imessages, Apple can intercept them. This is not a complete endorsement for Signal as decentralized E2EE protocols are better for other reasons, but Signal is the easiest for people to adopt.
hwbehrens gave you a nice explanation, but maybe I'll reply too.

It was shallow because it was (1) low-information*; (2) a cliché; and (3) untied to anything specific about the article.

Such comments are extremely common on the internet and tend to evoke more of the same, which leads to predictable/generic discussions. We're trying to avoid those.

* I know that people sometimes have a lot of information in their heads when they post a comment like that; the problem is that if you don't include that information explicitly in your comment, it's not available to the reader.
Black hole observed spewing material years after consuming star
What's your evidence that Apple "won" because of computers bought by rich families in the 80s because last I knew after the mid 90s Apple got (checks notes) massacred in the computing world by Microsoft and the rest and really only won in the mid 2000's via consumer electronics with the creation of new markets that they've largely dominated since.
Before iMessage (yes it existed) all text messages were green. Blue denoted iMessage. There was no evil plan from Apple like bloggers love to conceive for attention - it’s merely what was originally chosen and they wanted to differentiate iMessage when they released it.
That's marketing BS, and today nobody is playing in the future

That's not what I meant. I meant DLSS and RTX are the technologies that GPU companies should be focused on. Intel and Nvidia are focused on those things. But DLSS/RTX are the present and future of gaming.

RX 6xxx gen is 2 years old already ;), and yet it does better for todays needs and for already released games

That's not the case for the Intel lineup

At some price points, in some games, yes. You could say that about all 3 vendors. There's no outright win, especially for AMD and Intel. They battle in the price/performance field. If anyone has an outright win on performance, it's only Nvidia.
They were harassed by his followers across state lines, so yes, even a broke person’s life can be made orders of magnitude more difficult than it should be under normal conditions.

Also, let’s not walk this eggshell here of “did he make any specific claim”, this is the same bullshit that defends trump from calling covid hoax and whatnot.
Your quoted source has that backward -- messages you've received always appear in light grey bubbles, regardless of whether they came in via SMS or iMessage.

It's only messages which you *sent* which appear in green or blue, to let you know whether each message was sent via SMS (which may have incurred a charge from your telco) or iMessage (which is free). At least to a casual glance, there's nothing on received messages to indicate whether they came in via SMS or iMessage.
They'll just look at what's in each other hands. Or what's on their feet. Or what clothes their draped in. All as they always have.
Let's have a look the release dates of your list of surviving products, shall we?

What do those all have in common? The most recent one is 7 years ago, and the others are older still. What else happened 7 years ago? Sundar became CEO. Google has not released a single successful product since he started -- telling, isn't it?
The rise of robots in the US will, sincerely and with no irony:

- Allow politicians to continue to limit legal immigration to pander to parties who think this is good policy.

- Help businesses remain productive despite the ravages of opioids & meth in many regions of the country, that is starving employers of reliable low and moderately skilled labor.

- Offset declining US birth rates and increasing mortality rates.

- Makeup for shortfalls in "tooth to tail" and infantry shortfalls experienced by the US military, but likely at greatly increased expense due to unique defense spending economics.

- Revolutionize health and elder care in ways good and bad, but nonetheless necessary, providing great savings to providers - but probably no savings to consumers.

- Seriously reduce workplace injuries in some of the most dangerous jobs (eg. recycling), but wipe out smaller businesses who can't afford the CAPEX.
I think the closing remark at the last trial was:
“Speech is free, but you have to pay for the lies Mr Jones”
Google Vizier: A Service for Black-Box Optimization (2017) [pdf]
By making millions of dollars by deliberately amplifying the pain of a murdered parent, so that they're harassed and threatened, face to face, even when they visit states across the country from where they live. It's not complicated. Jones really did fuck these people's lives up, and he did so knowing that their lives had already been devastated. It's hard to even think of a way to profit from the mass murder of first graders, but Alex Jones literally found a way to do it; he might be the only person to have done so successfully.
Ah, you’re right. Reading through the readme made me think this was very much designed with games in mind:

Assuming output is the same in both cases, this is wrong. If a company is making $10 million in profits, is it better for society if they spend $9 million hiring people to dig ditches and then fill them in? No, because those people could be doing something else that is actually useful.

Technically yes, Realistically there isn't a need. The iMessage feature set has been mostly matched by RCS on Android. Apple does not want compatible messaging.
Are you suggesting that Chinese cities have been under continuous lockdown for the last two years? Because that's not the case.

Wuhan for example began its lockdown in Feb 2020 and ended it Apr 2020. There was a brief, limited lockdown in July of this year, but that's it.

Folks in China were able to freely mingle, eat out, etc. long before the West did. Reducing transmission is certainly not the only consideration, but the economy and public life are better by actually dealing with a deadly virus quickly than pretending it will just magically go away and dragging out its effects for two years (and counting).
A circuit breaker doesn't imply human intervention. U.S. regulations have three levels of a circuit breaker, which are set to halt trading when the S&P 500 Index drops 7%, 13%, and 20%. Circuit breakers for individual securities are triggered whether prices move up or down.
Used Android since like the original HTC phone in my early teens, owned probably 6-7 android phones in my life (majority Google since the good old Nexus days). My first iPhone was the 12 and as of now, I think my kids first phone will be an iPhone. The walled garden is annoying and monopolistic but an iPhone just works. 2 years later, my iPhone is still going strong and I don’t even want to change my phone for the near future. They’re just built better and supported better. My family relentlessly complain about the Pixel 6 heat issues and plans on “upgrading” a year later.
If you think a green bubble is the only thing that will mark you for that 5%, that people will judge, you've never been, or known anyone, that was poor.

I make fun, but this type of tech is pretty amazing to me.
Why should employees pay for desks? Sounds like a strategy to make the work environment suck so that people are willing to spend their own money on work supplies, traditional corporate welfare.

Which reminds me, all those jobs I brought my own monitors … I should have just resigned.
> 1. In the dating scene, I have heard women remark that it was a red flag (Android users are stereotypically poor... despite a large number of techies using Android)

This is a red flag against the women in question, not the Android user. That attitude/behaviour is a great indicator of a gold digger. You'd be dodging a bullet by avoiding these women.

The only other people that share that attitude are teenagers. So if you go along with this horseshit and buy an iPhone just to feel more comfortable dating, you're courting women with the maturity and intelligence of the average teenager.
it's as ground as can be, short of a tunneling machine maybe.

> the now two year old Apple M1 still smokes every single chip I just mentioned, all in a fanless iPad Air

Well yes, but then you have to use macOS and the locked down close ecosystem that is Apple. That's not really something they're directly competing against.
Terrible decision. They have a nice blue branding. What they could've done instead is to show SMS messages as green bubbles and then we'd have: green bubbles / blue bubbles, just like with iMessage, except this time it works both on iOS _and_ Android. This might win them over more and more users.

If they manage to make the UI and feature set as complete as iMessage, it would convince people to switch to Signal much much faster than Google's pity RCS bashing of Apple.
>just “open back up” and let whatever happens happens; that’d be a very authoritarian thing to do

Isn't this exactly what numerous US conservatives were advocating for?
How do you deal with tests that interact with something external to the codebase? The result of those could potentially change without a code change.
It was commented on frequently when I was online dating, to the point that it got annoying. I've had a few friends mention it and jokingly tell me to give in and get an iPhone. I'm mid-thirties.
Always amuses me to see this since I grew up right next to the power plant that started the cascade (literally at the end of my mom's street). I wasn't in town when it started, but was on my way to see Iggy & The Stooges in Detroit. We were completely unaware of what had happened until we pulled into Detroit, and we all thought, "I heard Detroit was bad, but I didn't know it was 'no electricity' bad... lol". Little did I know, the problem started at the end of my street.

First, the inverse square root function is not high entropy. At worst it's only medium entropy.

Second, it's like the complete opposite of "one-off". It's a block of code that has been copy/pasted into so many code bases, and then there have been hundreds of blog posts, articles and comments written about it. It literally has a Wikipedia article. Most of those places copy/paste the block of code verbatim. It shows up so many times in both the original gpt-3 datasets, and the extra datasets that GitHub did additional training on.

That block of code is famous. No wonder why the model though those sequence of tokens were important enough to store and regurgitate verbatim with the minimal amount of prompting.

But none of the same applies to an API key found in only one code base.

Thank you so much!! I had similar frustrations with Mint. I feel like they got complacent and haven't updated much over the years, can't blame em though after a big success haha.

Amazing feedback though I've heard this many times. I'm trying to tackle the infrastructure / compute layer first, get an intuitive UI for playing with the data, and then build out the customizations on the individual user level for modifying transactions and such. So that piece will likely come last but I have a pretty detailed spec drawn out on how I think I can handle that with transactions rules, categorization schemas, and plaids api. (I've watched how lots of people tried to tackle this problem haha)

I'll keep you posted! Thanks so much for the insights
For electricity. Which is a minority of energy use in most economies. Such headlines can be incredibly misleading. My jurisdiction (Ontario) is ~90% carbon-neutral for electricity generation; next door, Quebec is ~99% hydroelectric. Yet we produce about 10 and 9 tonnes of CO2 equivalent GHG emissions per capita. (Nearly 2x as much as Greece.)

> VR 7-8 years ago wasn't gated behind a store

You make it sound like it is all gated behind an app store now somehow. Which is not the case at all.

On my quest 2 headset, I can play games from oculus store, I can also play any steamvr/pcvr games on quest 2 (connected to the desktop PC by a cable or in wireless mode), as well as any user-built application .apk files dowloaded to my headset directly (either from the headset's web browser or transferred from PC). All on the official firmware, no jailbreaking or any special steps needed to make this work.

Not sure how this is even remotely representative of some app store gating.
> why is it only people that get desperate? why doesnt the companies, in these scenarios?
why do we always assume its the "slave-minded plebs" that blinks first?

Because companies are a legal fiction that dissolve if things get that bad? If they didn’t provide legal protection for liability than most would just be privately owned assets with direct, as in legally direct not that they necessarily speak, negotiations between the owner and employees

> if companies really are so greedy, surely they could see the benefit in paying more than they would prefer(which would naturally always be 0), and get to earn decent, rather than employees saying "too bad, wont work" and they get to earn nothing?

Observed behavior? Are you unfamiliar with the small businesses complaining about how “nobody wants to work” while offering minimum wage? Or in the tech industry how the majority of firms have settled on providing below market yearly salary increases and eating the replacement cost for employees rather than pay a few percent more to keep people from looking for new jobs. To the point that it’s commonly accepted for jobs to be 2-3 year stints instead of the lifelong careers of the past?

> this kind of thing strikes me as very elitist, how can someone listening to the argument interpret it as anything other than "those regular working joes are so stupid they will just offer themselves up as slaves the second a company talks sternly or the price of food increases!!!!" ?

You’re reading into it if you think I’m referring to just “working joes”. It’s what desperate people do in the rule set you propose. It’s how we had indentured servants in the American colonies. It’s how there were literally people who sold themselves into slavery to pay off bets in the Roman Empire.

> is it really that much to expect, that people individually take some responsibility, say no to conditions that are, by THEIR judgement, poor, and save up a decent enough buffer that they wont have to say "well it was a good run, im a slave now" the instant a company might not immediately cave to a demand or meet at a reasonable spot?

If someone is in a desperate enough situation to consider selling themselves into slavery, how pray tell, do they save up a decent enough buffer?
It is unclear whether a third-party client that accesses content you are otherwise licensed to access is actually infringing, and it's likely to differ in many countries as well.
Here is a scenario that demonstrates my concern: If you are going to search for a phone number, semantically all phone numbers almost have the same meaning.

The embedding space will project them all to the same part of the space. I do not see any modifier in the query will adjust that. For example, searching "631 887 9812" will not be able to be quite different from any number that starts with zip code 631. The results will be quite washed in my expecation.
Of course 50 is not too old as long as you have a growth mindset.

But you already had a software company and it "fizzled out" and you got burned out.

So more importantly, have you learned anything from that, and how will you do things differently this time? (That's a rhetorical question for you to ask yourself)
> I guess this is an artifact of how cutthroat academia is and how vital it is to have credit for being first.

In fairness, academia has improved much in this regards since the days of Newton. That man was such an arse... even the Wikipedia article about his feud with Leibniz glosses over... everything.

Basically, not only was he a donkey about things, he used all sorts of underhanded tactics to win and reveled in devastating his rival's good standing.
Meta and Google employ AI based methods for skipping tests (See):

they are pretty much flawed in a way, because they require you to wait weeks/months to gain statistical sagnificance. And even then they are too costly to train to make sense in smaller scales.

There's an ex-Google employee who came out with something similar in 2005 for JUnit java tests, since erased it was called google-testar.

We talked to him and ulitmatly he sunsetted the project because:

1) static analysis back then was basically copying language parser code from the Language distro and retro fitting it which was HARD to maintain.

2) Misses when resource files were changed, he was a one man show to my understanding.

Our View: Static analysis has gone a long way since... and yet no one has made something for system tests and integration tests, there's a couple unit tests solution out there.

I think the point of adding distance there is exactly that it saved the relationship. Some people just don't 'work' in close proximity to each other. And that can include family.

I'd think the relationship will be less strained when they do not see each other every day because they live next to each other. At least one of them will feel bad. They may not show it, especially back in times when it would have been hard to get away, they may 'keep it all in' but they won't be happy.

It seems like in your parent poster's case, not being together and having a close relationship allowed both sides to be happier. Potentially to the point where meeting each other for like 3 or 4 holidays per year was tolerable and they could work it out but where seeing each other every day would have been miserable for at least one side or potentially openly hostile for a very long time.

It doesn't mean not having any relationships but just because you're family doesn't mean you have to be constantly present in each other's lives.

This is interesting, because also in the news is the placing of human brain organoids into live mouse brains.
