It’s quite nice to have something irreversible though. It gives you time. Also nobody really thinks QM is the end of it, assuming semi classical physics under the hood is just odd to me. There is something below QM that we don’t understand yet (AdS/CFT looks like a good start to me) and personally I think the whole interpretation of QM debate will look stupid in retrospect. Yeah collapse is odd, but it just shows us this isn’t it. Reality is much weirder than we thought and giving up on realism is just the beginning.
Using EtLT to improve GDPR compliance
Being GDPR compliant may require obfuscation or removal of some data before it gets loaded into a data warehouse. This can be achieved with an EtLT (Extract, “tweak”, Load, Transform) approach to data integration – in which a very light “tweak” (small “t”) transformation is done on the data before it reaches the destination. This is discussed in detail in the following article: https://airbyte.com/blog/etlt-gdpr-compliance
Regulations.

Put regulations on the Market Places to tighten up their process for accepting new sellers, and direct punishment of the Market Places themselves for selling bad products. These Market Places have no skin in the game when it comes to the stuff they sell, they need a reason to care. If they care, these problems start to sort themselves out.

For example, instead of just fining the AirBNB host for an illegal rental, they should also fine AirBNB say $50k per rental. Something high enough that they do their own verification of product. Or fine Amazon a similar amount every time they send out a fake SD card.

They're different failure modes. It's unlikely the GPS constellation will go dark anytime soon. It's much more likely you're in an area without good view of the (few) GPS satellites required for a fix; or that there is GPS jamming, etc.
They don't support TailScale-specific email and password accounts in any version, and only Google or GitHub login (or maybe MS accounts?) in the free version. That was the basis of the complaint, I think. TailScale has written separately about why they made that choice.

I don’t Think ai essays are good but they might be less bad than some writers
Yes, but then the inaction of all of them together in the end means all of them will lose their life. This is the state of the UK right now. Everyone looked the other way because they didn't want to rock the boat because of the consequences it may have.

I've done this in Germany and I would have people come to my office and complain about the the board and then turn around and pretend nothing happened when I took the initiative on these things. I've seen 2 people die of heart attacks in that period multiple become permanently ill. Moreover out of the 350 employees the institution has most likely 100-200 or more will lose their jobs over the next years.

The biggest lie that people believe is that societies have come to believe is that they, the people, are powerless.

But then again, if that is what they choose, then they have to live with the consequences.
How so? No children involved - no harm done.
Oh sure, we'll have many of the same genes, but got them from other ancestors.
I remember as a child being spellbound by David Munrow's TV programmes - and then they stopped. I was too young to know or understand what had happened. Such a loss.

It's a bit of a chicken and egg situation I suppose with these instruments. If there isn't a critical mass of players we don't hear them played well and so no-one picks them up.

I don't think the interesting part of this article is that there are bad AirBnB hosts. I'm sure there are. I don't think they are the majority, and I'm basing that on my overwhelmingly positive experiences as a guest. So, that part of the article doesn't ring true to me.

The interesting part is how much of a hellish experience AirBnB support was. If you're staying in an AirBnB, you likely do not have the time to spend waiting for support to get back to you. Their customer service should help the customer immediately, and sort out the details later.
You're probably on to something there. JITD may morph to JITD+B (+B = plus buffer).
It’s also a strange article in that it tries to propagate the old saw that the Soviets were never in the Moon Race, so their failure wasn’t such.
Perhaps the collapse happens when all the quantum fields are activated at a particular point in their coordinate system.

I.e. if we have 3 fields, with respective coordinates [0, 1, 2], [1, 2, 3] and [2, 3, 4], a particle emerges only when the 3rd point of field A, the 2nd point of field B and the 1st point of field C, all with value = 2, are activated.

If the quantum field activations happen periodically, but their periods do not match, or the fields have different granularity when they are activated, then we may get a wave-like outcome for particles, since the interactions of all the fields happen only when the fields are synchronized at specific points in their history.

EDIT:

Writing the above made me realize that the underlying fabrique of the universe may work like a neural net, where each possible point in the universe is actually a node in a neural net, and each node has multiple fields connected to each node, and values flowing into the fields excite the nodes based on a function, for example accumulation. When a limit is exceeded in a node, a particle is created, or a particle disappears (for black holes).

A neural net of such proportions could be called ...God (yeah, I said it, sorry...I don't believe in a God but the parallelism is interesting, at least to me, from a philosophical perspective).

It's not misleading. First off, 75% of all motorcycle crashes are single vehicle crashes - i.e. rider error, usually going wide in a corner.

50% of all motorcycle crashes involve the rider having a blood alcohol level above the legal limit.

A high percentage (not sure the exact number) are inexperienced riders who've been riding less than six months.

Another 50% of motorcycle crashes occur at night.

Obviously there's a lot of overlap in these statistics but by and large if you ride sober, learn how to negotiate corners, and don't ride late at night when the drunk drivers are on the road then your chances of being involved in an accident plummet.

Unfortunately, drunk riding is a thing. Where I live there are lots of planned rides, even charity rides, that ride from bar to bar. Group riding is already more dangerous than riding single and now let's add alcohol to the group! What could possibly go wrong?!
We should keep a close eye on this concern.

Brin's "The Transparent Society" notes that once ubiquitous, automated, cheap surveillance becomes widely available, the genie is out of the bottle... There isn't a scenario where nobody uses it, there are merely scenarios where we decide who may use it and what contexts.

Is the same power structure that's going to attempt to ban it for private use going to refrain from use by, say, the police? Because it's not Google but will ultimately absorb the consequences of having these technologies suppressed... It's individuals who can now no longer identify who just walked into their property as easily as the police can identify who just walked into an abortion clinic.
According to my Dad, younger generations have never experienced a housing environment where your home value goes sideways for a decade. With rates this high and going higher. We may experience our first example of buying a house and selling the houses 10 years later for about the same price.

Some of the data seem to possibly indicate that poverty could in fact be the primary ingredient though. Also, rich families with kids that have mental issues or drug addictions are much less likely to end up in the streets, so it's definitely part of the formula.

Exactly. A related deep millennia old observation is that no one has actually seen the real world. Everything we’ve ever experienced has been filtered through our minds. Every experiment, every measuring device, every meticulously crafted model of reality… it is all inescapably limited by what we are able to experience.

One could and many have argued that the reality we’ve been observing and operating in is consciousness. The “real” world could be entirely different and largely inaccessible.

These kinds of thought exercises don’t have much practical utility, apart from one very important feature; they humble you. At the end of the day we don’t fundamentally know anything, and should always recognize that at its most basic root level, everything we do is an educated guess. A fundamentally skeptical and curious outlook that acknowledges our perceptual limitations is how we got all of the sophisticated models of very difficult to observe phenomenon in the first place. If we want to continue to get the best understanding of whatever it is we’re experiencing, I think it’s very important to stay humble and ensure our knowledge is treated as a hard earned set of well reasoned guesses rather than unquestionable dogma. 99.9% of objections to well established ideas and models might be a waste of time entertaining, but you never know what might turn out to be the seeds of a whole new universe of understanding that invalidates huge swaths of our existing corpus of knowledge.

Most of what I’m saying here is probably obvious to a lot of readers, and I don’t think anyone in this thread is being particularly arrogant or dogmatic, but I think it’s worth reiterating. If people who understand the limits of knowledge aren’t constantly emphasizing the fact that we don’t know what we don’t know, that creates fertile ground for both dogmatic assertions and unreasonable skepticism, and I think a huge amount of dysfunction in the culture at large is explained by insufficient well calibrated humility amongst otherwise very intelligent people who set an example for others.

Texas is a one-party consent state, meaning that you can store any sort of recording you have been involved in, without seeking consent from the other parties involved.

Texas police departments have also been trying to partner with camera manufacturers like Ring or Google, to access their customer records [0].

In this case everyone mentioned in the suit public figure within the worldwide chess playing community which would suffice. Also this event has had international coverage from multiple sources which would be presented as evidence that they are indeed public figures if there was any doubt.
Competition from who? Every established, high trust, host will charge at least the minimum viable rate to break even.

Anyone who charges lower then the minimum viable will simply never break even, given that the money spent to accumulate trust has an opportunity cost.

The cheapest hotels will be priced about the same.

Low or zero trust hosts can't compete against high trust folks without a huge discount as already discussed.

Apple does also include the Tips app, with notifications for it turned on by default. In previous iterations if you read all the tips for your new phone, it would point you to the iPhone User Guide; now it’s just at the bottom if you scroll all the way down and you don’t have to read it in Apple Books anymore.

iPhones have a lot of new features every year, so I find it helpful to go through the Tips app at least once every new OS release and also every phone purchase and I usually learn a couple of new things by doing so.
It is always a matter of scale. You can get the fingerprint of anyone (relatively) easily, but not everyone. So the problem only arises when it is done in mass or more generally when it can be used by centralized entities of any sort.

The wider question is, if this can be avoided at all. But I think we should at least try, because this kind of data can so easily be misused and at one point in time we were already aware of that, but forgot in recent times.
And it fits nicely into git!
The question is whether they want to adapt. I know of teachers who wouldn’t even look at the documents. A couple of classmates (10+ years ago) literally turned in empty docx. They all got the same grade as on previous exam.

Well then you’re still wrong. US republicans believe in small government, so they don’t think they should even be there.
Democrats have a super majority in SF, have a majority in the CA state government, and PG&E is essentially a state (as in CA) controlled corporation. The democrats have had majorities at both the municipal level and the state level for a long time.

PG&E is not the reason for this particular high cost, but if it was it would be the D's fault. And it's squarely a local level problem. And yet you manage to somehow blame republicans at a federal level...

Why don't you demand some responsibility from your local politicians instead of blaming a caricature of the other party? If PG&E was at fault here, D's are literally doing what you're mad at the Rs for supposedly doing... Incredible.

It doesn't. When you dig into the details, Jackson's argument is circular: he can only infer that Mary learns something new by implicitly assuming it.
It came out in '87, 3 years before windows 3.0. Macs were still twice as expensive as PCs and accounted for something like 3-5 percent of new computer sales. DOS was the most popular PC OS at the time, and wasn't known for its user friendliness. So the idea of a "turn it on and start typing" machine had some cachet.

I think the near absolute lack of marketing is what doomed the Cat and IA.
This is common in UK universities at least. You can have your entire grade for a year of dense reading at the MSc level be based on three hours of hand-numbing speedwriting. It makes sense while at the same time rewarding and punishing different personality types (and calligraphers).
Words in interfaces are terrible unless a lot of thought goes into localization.

For example, consider an American UI designer creating a 'Save' button. Now, translate the button to Dutch ('Opslaan').

What you'll see very often is that the button is only wide enough for the English text ('Save'), so 'Opslaan' gets rendered as something like 'Ops...', which is obviously a terrible experience.

I just set my computer and phone interfaces to English to sidestep this problem, but not everyone wants to do this.

Besides faster start time, one use case would be state persistence.

If you have a process that writes stuff to a file inside a container (not in a volume or mounted path), stopping a container without destroying it doesn't delete the modifications. Starting the container again may allow the process to read the contents of the file, possibly continuing its execution from some checkpoint.
I agree that it’s a good idea to download everything now and I agree that the legal powers that be will probably soon force it underground - but I’m less certain the driving reason will be copyright / IP. I think it will be reasons similar to what TA hints at. People are (somewhat understandably) upset with certain classes of output the model is capable of generating and a moral panic is likely to ensue that, historically, has won most cases it’s presented itself in.

I also use them for file integrity checking, but I frequently check large files, e.g. 50 GB files, and in that case the difference in time until finish between "sha256sum" and "openssl dgst -r -sha256" is extremely noticeable on a Zen CPU.

On the other hand, on older Skylake/Kaby Lake/Coffee Lake etc. CPUs, both programs have the same speed.
