> Also for reference the last Superbowl was watched by 100M viewers.

Getting precise numbers for marquee sporting events is difficult, especially outside of the major US sports leagues, but the Super Bowl is on the shortlist for most-viewed single sporting event. Comparing only among US sports leagues, the Super Bowl has more viewers than the final game of the next several leagues combined--the next largest finals seems to have somewhere around 20M viewers.

By contrast, the smallest of the "big" US sports leagues can only manage around 5 million viewers for its final games.
This sounds correct to me and aligns with a lot of other results from my experiments. I thank you for the insight.

The only think I'll add is that it can't be an impossible task, because I can look at the same sequence of images and get a pretty good understanding of the 3D topography. That said, some things DON'T come through very well, like slopes so I think starting with priors that contain the gimbal position in addition to the GPS-derived location would really help pick up slopes, if that information were actually included in the pipeline.

As advanced as it all is right now, computer vision still has a long way to go I think, with some very fruitful ideas yet to be implemented.

Decarbonising the energy system by 2050 could save trillions – Oxford study
In central California with ideal conditions, one day’s worth of storage roughly doubles the price of a solar system that is correctly sized for net zero production in November (assuming a wood stove is supplementing a heat pump).

I don’t think storage will be feasible in places like Minnesota. The following makes far more economic sense:

- Double solar / wind production by buying 2x more panels vs. “normal” states.

- Go all electric (heat pump / induction) for appliances and vehicles.

- Buy 8-24h worth of house batteries.

- Use a fossil fuel generator to top off batteries during outages (this more than doubles the generator’s end to end efficiency)

- Sell excess electricity to the grid, where it is used for subsidized carbon capture.

This should be completely resilient against storms and power outages, and extremely carbon negative. It would cost about 2x as much as best case renewables.
I think you’ve misread why people watch sports. The biggest reason to me seems to be nostalgia/family tradition. It’s a way to bring people together for a few hours. Beyond that I’d say second biggest reason is the thrill of competition. Related to “love of the game” but I think it’s much more about the human condition and struggle we all go through than you seem to think. Most people can relate to dedicating their selves to something and having their hard work pay off, and seeing that happen is a large part of the intrigue of sports.
"germ" is a bad term.

Certainly it's somewhat unlikely (but not impossible!) for them to be susceptible to a virus.

Bacteria/fungal/etc though? They are perfectly susceptible to all those "germs". Strep doesn't really care if it's infecting a human or an animal. It just needs a hospitable environment.

That would be magic. And it assumes reality is mathematical or logical as opposed to those being descriptive human languages. We also don't know everything about gravity or spacetime (particularly in black holes), so our math is incomplete.
The system is very rarely at max. So rare it made headlines. They asked people to conserve power anyway they could for a few hours. The other 8755 hours in the year you can do whatever you'd like.

I charged just fine to my normal 90% battery every day of that heat wave. Turns out that it's cheaper to charge overnight, so why would I charge during the peak anyway?
Yes, they plan ahead so effectively that they have thrown their most valuable resource, fertile topsoil, away while ruining the water for everyone in the search of short term profits.

SDRAM latency is definitely not keeping up with improvements in throughput: if you go back to the time of the PC100 SDRAM standard (late 90s?) it was not uncommon to see RAM with CAS latency of 2 clocks and overall timings compatible with a latency of around 20-25ns; now with DDR5-4800, CL 34 is standard and latencies have only come down to about 15ns.

This despite the number of MT/s increasing 48-fold.
You can even simplify even more. "They have to cross the line" instead of discussing 10 yards. And as humans have a rough understanding of the world we are in, even somebody with no prior knowledge of football can understand how complicated it can be to catch the ball. Input to eSports, which buttons there were to press at which time and how the game's physics model would react isn't as intuitive.
The linker script specifies that .data section starts where 192k RAM region starts - in other words, addresses of all variables, etc, are in the RAM memory range.

But the firmware image (that resides on flash), which has .text and .data concatenated, has that .data section in Flash region, obviously. So we have .data section residing in Flash region, but all its addresses in the RAM memory range. That's why it is necessary to copy it over manually.

Hope this is clear... Let me know if not!

Likely things in 2023:

- Successful lawsuits against using artwork to train AI models without permission

- Well known, successful artists will use generated AI in their work. This includes film.

- AI models generate music and audio well, as seen with text and images earlier

- AI based film analysis that lets you walk around in 3d in film scenes will become widely available

- Twitter will shrink. Advertisers will focus elsewhere.

- SpaceX will go orbital with SpaceShip (doing 3/4 of an orbit counts).

- An astronaut from a nation other than China will visit the chinese space station

- Strains on worldwide logistics will disappear due weak demand

- At least one private moon mission will manage a successful landing

- Some climate protests go non-peaceful (children of Kali, read "Ministry for the Future")

- New nasal Covid-19 vaccines will stop people from becoming ill and spreading the disease further, ending the pandemic in the West.

We've never done the experiment, but there are innumerable germs that infect across species, so they'd be catching all kinds of stuff.

"FIV cross-species transmission: An evolutionary prospective" is an interesting paper as an example. It seems FIV infects all cats in the cat family. That paper has a long discussion of the old and new world cat problem as relates to FIV. I'm well aware that saber tooth tigers are not dinos but if we brought saber tooth tigers back they would probably be screwed over by FIV either instantly or at least very soon.

An interesting google search phrase is "diseases of farmed crocodiles and ostriches" and apparently there's a reason our supermarkets are full of the livestock we eat; raising meat crocs looks like a HUGE disease headache. Imagine a giant 400 foot long dinosaur suffering from Caiman Pox.

Raising disease free reptiles that we already have experience with seems to be a big headache; I predict it would be pretty tough to raise dinos.
Yeah. If you look at my comments about ChatGPT on HN it may look like I'm down on the tech. I'm really not, and it does have interesting future uses. It's just that the common understanding is really bad right now, and that includes people pouring money into trying to make the tech do things it is deeply and foundantionally unsuited for.

But there's a lot of places where a lack of concept of "truth" is no problem, like as you say, query engines. Query engines aren't about truth; they're about matching, and that is something this tech can conceivably do.

In fact I think that would be a more productive line in general. This tech is being kind of pigeonholed into "provide it some text and watch it extend it" but it is also very easy to fire it at existing text and do some very interesting analyses based on it. If I were given this tech and a mandate to "do something" with it, this is the direction I would go with it, rather than trying to bash the completion aspect into something useful. There's some very deep abilities to do things like "show me things in my database that directly agree/disagree/support/contradict this statement", based on plain English rather than expensive and essentially-impossible-anyhow semantic labeling. That's something I've never seen a query engine do before. Putting in keywords and all the variants on that idea are certainly powerful, but this could be next level beyond that. (At the cost of great computation power, but hey, one step at a time!) But it takes more understanding of how the tech works to pull something interesting off like this than what it takes to play with it.

Probably a good blog post here about how the promise of AI is already getting blocked by the complexity of AI meaning that few people use it even seem to superficially understand what it's doing, and how this is going to get worse and worse as the tech continues to get more complicated, but it's not really one I could write. Not enough personal experience.
In the future, it might be AI who designs better "hardware"/wetware for humans.

If you don't change your mind (no pun intended) but most of humanity does, it sounds like you'll just be left behind, like very old people who don't even know how to use a fixed-line telephone, never mind a smartphone, computer or the internet. Except, perhaps, in a much more profound/extreme manner.

guess Substack doesn’t have an API?

Substack doesn't have an API. Their editor is laughably primitive compared with other solutions. Their visual look hasn't changed at all since their inception. They don't have discoverability. Can anyone tell me what Substack is doing with all the millions of dollars of funding they've taken? We joke about Twitter being massively overstaffed, but Substack, to me, looks just as bloated, organizationally.
"let me track you or you can't use this" ought to be well within the law. The idea that is isn't is pretty insane government overreach.

This is actually my point. People by and large don’t love the game in traditional sports, they love the team and players because the history of the team is interwoven with their personal life (nostalgia/tradition)

In esports this tradition doesn’t exist because esports are new. So you only watch if you love the game.

> Those are not tuning parameters at all.

Then explain how MOND is able to make predictions that don't need such considerations. This suggests either that dark matter is superfluous, or that dark matter has some underlying order that reproduces MOND in some limit, thus eliminating the tuning needed. This is the approach taken by some superfluid dark matter models, which at least is not ignoring the problem.

> Regarding the linked article, it an article written by proponents of MOND and is not objective

Right, because anti-MOND or dark matter reviews are totally objective?

> Just the fact that MOND still requires dark matter anyway to reproduce CMB is major problem for it

It's not at all a problem to say we need DM like sterile neutrinos, since DM alone is insufficient to adequately explain all observations anyway.

People forget that the entire early MacOs, GEOS, windows DE's used to run in a matter of a couple hundred K.

The entire system requirements of a windows 2k PC were 64M of ram, and yes it could display a background picture on a HD+ level display and pretty much do everything that is possible on a modern PC that your average user is doing. The darn thing was 32-bit, meaning that the apps could never allocate more than 2G (or 3G on a tuned machine) of address space and it was enough, even for video editing/etc.

Back when FF went 64-bit/multi process I groaned because having a fixed 2G limit, which seemed terrible at the time, created a nice upper bound on how much CPU+RAM it would consume so the developers assured it ran reasonably well with those kinds of system resources. Now the sky's the limit, and if you dare limit its resource utilization via cgroups/etc it won't work 1/2 the time.

And of course its your fault if you don't have a 16 core, 32G PC. To run a text editor and a chat application.
I think of it less than being fulfilled, but just sick of what others are doing and feeling is a good thing to do with "tech". Targeting, tracking, analyzing, etc just makes me sick to my core that some really bright people are fully engaged in making this shit "better". The entire cryptocoins and NFTs are also just fully vomit inducing to me as well. Now, it's the talent and tools being used to create DeepFakes. We're promoting creating fakes???WTF!! I met someone that was using AI/ML in medicine looking back at pre-existing scans to see if it might be possible to detect cancer earlier than what was/is currently available. That kind of stuff seems like viable expenditure of efforts. Creating video/images to fool other people that someone said/did something they didn't say/do is just absolute maximum creepy to me.

So yeah, I've often thought about not being involved in the same industry as these asshats.
I sometimes wonder what kind of event it takes for a place to revert from paved to gravel roads. In San Benito County, California, which is bigger than the whole state of Rhode Island but virtually depopulated, there are roads that were paved at some point because they served old cinnabar and asbestos mines that nobody needs any more. These roads are so bad that the locals, to the extent that any exist, drive with at least one side of wheels on the dirt shoulder. Every five or ten years the county comes and and throws materials into the potholes, which just makes the surface worse. Now this broke county is planning to repave some of these roads using federal bailout money. Is it only a lack of imagination that keeps them from retreating to gravel?
So the core of the dataset is image _URLs_ and text captions.

1. From a reproducibility perspective, isn't this kinda brittle in that even without malicious intent, some of those images will no longer be available when other researchers attempt to download them?

2. From a resilience perspective, if your site has some of the images in the dataset, could you swap in another image with the correct dimensions. Could you poison or skew the model in any interesting ways?
As far as I can tell, from an admittedly short amount of searching and research, is that type classes in Haskell were influenced by Standard ML: https://people.csail.mit.edu/dnj/teaching/6898/papers/wadler...

> This paper presents type classes, a new approach to ad-hoc polymorphism. Type classes permit overloading of arithmetic operators such as multiplication, and generalise the "eqtype variables" of Standard ML. Type classes extend the Hindley/Milner polymorphic type system ...

And it was my understanding that traits came more from the object-oriented world, such as Self and Smalltalk. Scala and Racket also had them before Rust, and Scala also has type classes.

I don't think it's this simple. The structure of the egg and uterine environment play important roles in development. It's like a programming language with a compiler written in it's own language. Losing the living animals is like losing the compiler. Using a related animal is like using a fork of the lost compiler to recompile the lost compiler. If that fork has changed something you'll end up with something slightly different than the lost one.

Digital work arbitrage jobs don't actually pay that much.

The biggest source of wage inflation in the last few years has been domestic startups, all fueled by VC money from low interest rate regimes (Softbank, Tiger, Sequoia being the biggest culprits).

Those tech bodyshop jobs that cater to the US market still pay a small fraction of what a startup that targets the domestic Indian market, such as Cred, pays.

The point stands: digital work arbitrage has been around for three decades and didn't really create a massive income disparity. The bulk of recent income disparity has come through absurd tech startup valuations, all made possible because borrowing money was dirt, dirt cheap.
Context clues, it's rarely an issue in practice for native speakers:

- "I dreamt about you last night" - clearly a sleeping dream

- "I dream of being a doctor" - clearly a future desire

- "It's a dream come true" - ambiguous but the difference isn't important

In my experience there's also a cultural implication/expectation that the different meanings are often intertwined, i.e. desiring something so strongly you have dreams about it.

One mode is natural language, the other is imagery. It is combination becuse the model will learn statistical associations between the modes e.g. "text to image", "voice to text".

Within these respective modes are even more subgroups e.g. language translation, audio diarization. For sd you can consider animation and photographs as separate modes the model has to learn. Although the language is fuzzy and im not being statistically rigorous as it is a weak point of mine.
