Tonight I was asking it to solve the 2 generals problem, and every time it put forth “solutions”.

The problem can’t be solved. You can relax the problem and that problem can be solved.

But each time either the solutions were incorrect even for relaxed versions of the problem, or they worked for relaxed versions, but it failed to mention the relaxed constraints. The problem is that the solutions seem plausible unless you are already familiar with the problem.
I work at Meter.

We’ve seen this repeatedly across different types of spaces and have had teams spend similar amounts of time to get to know what’s going on underneath.

This is an overreaction. Incandescent bulbs will continue to be sold in the form of "rough service" bulbs for high temperature environments like ovens. But regardless you're better off buying high-CRI LED bulbs if you're that concerned about blue light.
On Windows one can use https://scoop.sh too. There's a "zig" package for numbered releases, and a "zig-dev" package for nightly.

This is a good point, we’ll make sure to update the post to note that the advice is no longer needed once Apple fixes things on their end. The script will get killed with a simple restart, so the odds of this hanging around are low.

For companies that decide to implement this or a similar solution using MDM,
`sudo pkill -f /tmp/disable_awdl.sh && sudo ifconfig awdl0 up` will also disable the effects of the script.
Pickles and .dlls solve completely different purposes. A .dll, which stands for "dynamic link library", is code - it's how you package parts of your implementation in certain environments (Windows). A pickle file is data - it's a way of serializing out the contents of the state of a data structure, using some magic built into Python reflection, and then loading it back later.

Pickling is very convenient for its purpose. It's also... very bad in production. The problem is that the serialization format is derived from the implementation and not very stable, so if the implementation changes - sometimes in subtle ways like upgrading your Python version - the serialized data isn't readable anymore. You're almost always better off either using an explicit data serialization format (JSON with schemas, protocol buffers, etc.) and writing your own logic for saving and restoring to/from it.

> the pickle file is just a black box input data flows in, response flows out of it

There's 100% more to it than that - there's got to be something that's evaluating the data in the pickle file and actually using it to compute the response. That substrate layer probably doesn't change often, but it should have its own versioning and deployment story.
How does the memory usage change? Does Java still require initial RAM reservation? /? Java specify how much RAM https://www.google.com/search?q=java+specify+how+much+ram

VOC transpiles Python to Java bytecode. Py2many transpiles Python to many languages but not yet Java.

Apache Arrow can do IPC to share memory references to structs with schema without modification between many languages now; including JS and WASM. https://arrow.apache.org/

FWIU Service Workers and Task Workers and Web Locks are the browser APIs available for concurrency in browsers and thus WASM. https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues/1639#issueco...

"WebGPU" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30601415

Emscripten-compiled WASM can be packaged with ~conda packages and built and hosted by emscripten-forge ( which works like conda-forge, which has Python, R, Julia, Rust) to be imported from JS and WASM. Here's the picomamba recipe.yml on emscripten-forge: https://github.com/emscripten-forge/recipes/blob/main/recipe... and for CPython: https://github.com/emscripten-forge/recipes/blob/main/recipe...

Browsers could run WASM containers, too. How does the browser sandbox+ WASM runtime sandbox (that lacks WASI) compare to the security features of Linux containers?

How do the docstrings look after transpilation?
Global Crypto Adoption Index. Normalized to the interval zero to one. The linked source, not a single absolute number. And even the relative numbers are all change over time or difference between countries. Nothing remotely useful like a fraction of GDP or whatever would be a useful reference. All people in Vietnam together could transact one dollar in crypto currencies per year or they could do everything in crypto currencies and not use old school money at all, you could not tell the difference from the charts and tables.

> If the "DC value of the sky" could be removed with a simple high pass filter, then there would be no need of doing anything else. The positions of the stars in the sky would be known, and techniques like the one in the article would apply.

This doesn't make any sense. Even if one could estimate ground truth DC, removing it would leave noise at every other frequency bin.

But this is beside the point. Your questioning isn't coming from a place of curiosity.

I direct you to the HN guidelines: "Be kind. Don't be snarky. Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine."

While supporting funding more nodes is a noble goal another concern I consider overlooked is the potential 'centralisation' of nodes e.g how a large number of Tor nodes are hosted in Germany and near countries and the implications for network surveillance.

There unfortunately is not a way to disable awdl in the UI apart from disabling bluetooth as well, which most don’t want. An increasing number of Apple services leverage awdl[1], and it’s unlikely they envision anyone wanting to turn it off.

I’m afraid our collective genetics does not tell of a history of fidelity. The standard successful procreation strategy involves children through many partners.

And besides, aren’t sexual experiences enjoyment? Why deny yourself and your partner pleasure and variety? You could both agree to not let the other watch TV and just glare at each other over every meal, but that’s going to get old pretty fast.

Not that I’m against marriage as it is today, but for the fact that for a decision that so radically defines the lives of those involved, I think there should be more deliberation in the details.
We have updated our post to make it easy to see the full source of the script involved, and we welcome PRs at https://github.com/meterup/awdl_wifi_scripts.

We’re also finding that IT teams are leveraging this script with tools like JAMF to address this for all of their company’s devices at once.
I find it weird when westerners used developing world in SEA countries as a use case for cryptocurrency due to terrible banking systems or poor access to bank.

If you say that periods where people move a lot are "mobile" periods, and periods where people stay put a lot are not "mobile" periods, than this is one of the least mobile periods in our modern history, despite what you may believe about remote work and transplants and gentrification. [1]

Of course, this is because housing is more expensive than it has ever been. It costs too much damn money to move, even if economic opportunity is better than it used to be.

A lot of ink being spilled in this thread about non-mobile people being bitter about the lack of opportunity in their hometown. That may be part of it, but I think the far larger and more important part is that it is too fucking expensive for them to move! In large part because of all of the people who did move away and got their fancy degrees and then financialized the whole economy so badly.

It is just incredibly weird to be pushing a financial instrument where you think the key problem is "people are being mean about it on the internet".

Which is to say, this is just a propaganda rhetoric strategy: the opposition don't have valid points, they're just crazed by their hatred. Don't try to understand what they're saying because they're crazy and can be ignored.
Berkshire had a (especially relative to the market) very good year and it’s the highest weighted constituent in XLF. Also a lot of the active fund companies had this same sort of trend where they went about 2x in market cap in a 12-16 month period in 2020-2021 and then gave about half the growth back (or more) in 2022.
Plastic is economically incredible, not because you get more of what you were already buying (though that's cool too), but rather because entirely new problem-solving products enter your purchase power level.

Wealthy nations have a distorted view not because plastic is cheap (though it is), but because we're so rich that we no longer remember what it's like to be able to afford your first pair of shoes.

That triple expansion pack model tanked SC2.

But also, just not being able to play cooperatively with friends was the final death knell. SC was designed for an era where you played alone and then you played against others who played alone because there weren’t a lot of anyone playing SC or anything really.

LoL unlocked an entire demographic of kids who wanted to play with friends. A great explosion in online VC tech helped foster this and the rest is history. Gaming is now a social activity and all the top sellers right now effectively leverage this.
Ok, but overall Windows is great in terms of backward compatibility compared to Apple/Linux/Android. You can still run DOS and Windows 3.x apps on 32 bit Windows 10 and lack of 64 bit support is just Intel hardware limitation. There is Hyper V if you do need such support. Inability to window DOS graphics is peanuts compared to impossibility of say running Power PC MacOSX apps with hardware graphics acceleration.

According to this link, rail is more efficient per tonne-kilometer than ships are, which contradicts many others in these comments claiming the opposite without supporting citations.

Per the source above, rail is most efficient at 128k, then ships at 97.3k, then road at 10.8k, where units are in tonne-kilometers shipped per tonne of CO2 emitted.

Most (practically all) aircraft do not have bullet-proof windshields (including military), for starters, and secondly a several pound meat ball travelling at closing speeds anywhere between 60kts (GA) to 200+ kts (jets/airliners/mil) is going to do a number on the aircraft regardless if it incapacitated the pilot.

Doubly-so if it's a several pound metal ball...

You don't want to hit anything in an aircraft, ever.

My takeaway: whenever private data has inadvertently become available to outside actors, you should treat as a breach, even if you don't have evidence of exfiltration or malicious use, and even if you first found out about the issue from a bug bounty program (legitimate or otherwise).
And isn’t this developer convenience at the cost of performance in a piece of software where performance is very important?

Today as my “end of the week fun experiment” I replaced Babel with esbuild on a years old 50k sloc production web application. It took 30 mins and builds now take 500ms instead of 63,000. Not quite apples to apples yet. But it’s such a compelling change that I can’t ignore it. I’m excited to see how Babel steps it up in the years ahead.
From my pov blizzard was already draining LONG before activision. The success of WoW killed their creativity and standards as they could just focus on recycled cliche on rails content and make loads of cash.

That said, even if it's activision, and even if you can can somehow separate them, the talent that made blizzard blizzard (whatever era of it you enjoyed) is likely long gone.
I think the R equivalent of a pickle file is just an object(s) that's been saved with "save" or "saveRDS" to a file. These can then be loaded and could contain a trained model.

Don’t worry, folks! Clojure will make you happy, but even with fast perf you may find yourself wanting static types or even just dynamic runtime result/option types. Of course it’s a lisp with macros, and a general purpose language, so you can have all of that too. But there’s no shortage of green in other pastures ;)
Having worked on this for a while, one way that might be helpful to understand this is that Python jits (such as the one I work on, Pyston) do in fact make Python code much faster, but the fraction of the time that is spent in "Python code" is only about 20% to begin with, with the other 80% being spent in the language runtime.

For example if you write `l.sort()` where l is a list, we can make it very fast to figure out that you are calling the list_sort() C function. Unfortunately that function is quite slow because every comparison uses a dynamic multiple-dispatch resolution mechanism in order to implement Python semantics.
Good question! I don't know :)
from only a glance and without having ever used nim, it seems to be more abstracted from the machine, whereas zig is closer. nim code should be shorter, nicer, closer to ideal pseudocode. safer too, i imagine. zig code should be more explicit, and if you do it right, more efficient in time and memory.

zig also has a philosophy of, quoted from https://ziglang.org: "No hidden control flow. No hidden memory allocations. No preprocessor, no macros.". this also should make zig code more explicit, but probably more verbose too.

i could also be completely wrong. like i said, i know nothing of nim other than what the homepage says. don't listen to me.
Handyman here. You're largely correct.

The siding is absolutely no big deal because it doesn't release fibers unless it breaks. Because it's solid and brittle, when it _does_ break, hardly any goes into the air. Plus you'd be outside, likely protected by at least a gentle breeze.

Asbestos was used in floor tiles (generally on top of concrete), these are perfectly safe if kept waxed or with a clearcoat applied on top. But you'd want to wear a respirator if removing them.

There was asbestos insulation in attics and often between walls, or wrapped around pipes. That's the worst stuff and you should use a respirator just being around it. (I'd wear a respirator in any attic, to be honest.)
Warp goes a bit beyond a normal terminal emulator and blurs the line a bit in order to support multiple shells without the user having to configure it in their shell by editing .bashrc or whatever. Eg Clickable position for text entry, which most other text boxes have supported since the 80's. I'm sure there's a readline setting somewhere out there but Warp overrides whatever settings are needed in order to get that to work out of the box.
I mentioned the forking cost too, my main point though is the license doesn't require people to upstream their stuff.
Looking through their comments, it's pretty clear they know they're banned, why they're banned, spoke with dang about it at the time, and embraced being banned (I think because they feel it filters out low effort replies? Their statement was on the matter was terse, but semiparphrasing they said "I'm aiming for a shadowban" because "replies are the worst").

Because exchanging cash requires physical presence. The introduces friction and requires putative criminals to take risks that they don't have to take with crypto, which makes crime less lucrative.
It is a shame. My first encounter with PostScript was getting a TeX / LaTeX post processor to output PostScript to the universities newly purchased LaserWriter (so much CamelCase ha ha).

When the Sun rep brought us a tape with NeWS to load up to our Sun Workstations we were quite excited, but it was so slow it was nearly unuseable. We scurried back to SunView pretty quickly.

edit: can't remember if it was dvi2ps or dvips, but we ended up having to hack it to be able to embed graphics because LaTeX at the time either couldn't do that or could do it but dvi2ps didn't understand it. Fun times.
never heard that such has a category. Thank You!

>“It’s shaping up to be one of the highest-impact things that we’ve done,” the chief executive, Jack Dorsey ,said of the update, which will change how tweets appear in search results or conversations. “The spirit of the thing is that we want to take the burden off the person receiving abuse or mob-like behavior.”

> The new system will use behavioral signals to assess whether a Twitter account is adding to – or detracting from – the tenor of conversations...

> The updated algorithm will result in certain tweets being pushed further down in a list of search results or replies, but will not delete them from the platform.

Usually, in a blameless analysis, you avoid overtly criticizing anyone or assigning blame, but you at least say what different people did. The OP doesn't seem to go into much detail about the exact actions Sullivan took, which seems like a major omission.
