Malthus didn't account for technology. We'll see how far that stretches.

Malthus reasoning is rock solid. Exponential population growth puts strain on finite resources. Malthus was a huge influence on Darwin. That premise - the tension between different growth rates of populations and resources - underlies the theory of natural selection, people on this forum will certainly get behind that. But call it Malthusian, and it's suddenly false.

It's also wrong to think that Malthus only just predicted doom. He used his model to explain a great deal of sociological phenomena (e.g. infanticide in china, delayed child rearing in wealthier societies, differences in diet between east and west).

It's not that Malthus was wrong. It was that he was only mostly correct. People today are nitpicking on the little bits and pieces where he was incomplete. He also wrote this at the start of the industrial revolution. He couldn't have known.

> do you want to be the biggest but only biomass left on the planet just to own the libs?

What does this mean? You're asking about the human race right? Or are you literally asking the parent if they want to grow into the fattest sole survivor on the planet? I'm confused by what you're even asking.
You can integrate it with a calendar and have automations based on the events. So you can have a work calendar that it checks before doing specific automations.

People have also built a variety of presence sensors for beds. With pressure sensors and such. Or if you have a Sleep Number bed, it also has presence detection. You could also do things like detecting phone is in the room and plugged in as a rough equivalent for presence of the person.
Where do begin with this

First off it appears that wage theft is being enforced, as the $933 million is the amount RECOVERED for victims of wage theft, I would like the highlight that victims of property theft are almost never made completely whole, even with insurance.

Wage theft, when reported and backed up with evidence is often aggressively pursued and most states have Treble damages statues for damages which is often why it is easy to get cogency litigation started for wage theft. Based on that is likely the amount of wages stolen by employers is on par with the total value of property stolen since the recovered amount would be 3x what amount stolen in the case of wages

Futher their slight of hand in only adding the market value of the property taken instead of the economic loss suffered by the victim gives me red flags they are attempting to be dishonest in their evaluation. For example if a person has their work truck stolen they are out far more than just the value of the truck but are also out wages, income, time, etc. All of which have a value outside that of the market value for the actual property taken

Wage theft is a serious matter and should be taken seriously. Luckily in most states the Dept of Labor does take is VERY seriously and most states have enacted laws to enable victims of wage theft to not only recover their wages but 3x their wages making it very enticing for lawyers to help victims without alot of upfront costs

The whataboutism trying to derail the top of property crime enforcement has not teeth if you really look into.

Get in line, plus the benefit of time machines is that you don't need to wait for them to be developed.
I think this highlights some differences between now and the 19th century.

Global communication and travel, to say nothing of media consumption, is much easier today. Many more Portuguese or Brazilian people have easy access to English. But back then, someone who didn't even speak English could publish this phrase book and appear credible.
Is it installed?

The apps.
The problem has always been immutable state. JavaScript doesn’t have ergonomic constructs to handle immutable state very well. IMO, immutability shouldn’t even be enforced by the view rendering layer. Immutability in React is enforced to cater to the needs of React’s implementation, and not the needs of the developer. It should be a choice by the developer whether or not they store their state in immutable data structures. Hooks are marketed as a means to make React into more of a framework, but the reality is that they are an attempt to smooth over the problems surrounding immutable state. Solid js also doesn’t solve this problem, even if it has more ergonomic ways of dealing with the problem.

Digging deeper, it seems to me that attempting to subvert the standard behaviour of the DOM will always produce a leaky abstraction, and it negates the benefits of working on a standardised platform.
It’s certainly a rule of thumb, I also prefer to break things down but I try to use functions as the basic units as they’re the easiest to keep in your head when it’s clear what they do
> I don't feel comfortable giving my bank details to random people.

What specifically makes you feel uncomfortable? If the person is truly "random" then guessing your account number is just as "random", no?
Ya the Mongolian was weird. I too would pick Mongolian if the Baltics were not there. Something about being in the Soviet orbit.

That's not really how memorization in neutral networks works. For classifiers, memorization is more like learning a hash function and a lookup table; no need to store the full image at all. Even for very large models, the weights are a tiny fraction of the size of the original data.

It's probably helpful to think of embeddings for generative models in a similar way; it's a very specific embedding function, like a locality sensitive hash, which doesn't require actually storing the data.

A lot of computation is offloaded to the CPU, such as gradients and optimizer states. You are right though that quite a bit of computation is still done on the GPU.
I'll add that my signature at this point is a totally undecipherable inconsistent scrawl that is even more so in a thin box on the back of a card. I assume I'm not that unusual, especially given that I actually did learn Palmer script once upon a time. I sort of have to laugh whenever I still sometimes need to sign a credit card receipt.
Oh you sweet child, you haven't seen complexity until you have deployed J2EE services generated using WSDL, running in an OSGi container, interfaced with EJBs packaged using Ant and deployed into GlassFish, integrated with IIS running on a Windows Server.

You're dismissing ORMs because of one (well-understood and easy to mitigate) downside without considering the upsides.

ORM do make development much easier and are fine in the majority of cases to begin with. For the edge-cases, some can be addressed by giving the ORM extra hints about your intentions (such as for the N+1 queries problem) and those that can't can be rewritten as raw SQL.

Why dismiss them entirely in favour of Raw SQL if you can get the best of both worlds by picking the appropriate tool for the job?
This is exactly why the USPS started replacing the blue box opening slots with a narrower version in New York City and surrounding areas starting back in 2019 [1], to prevent "mail fishing" -- retrieving envelopes from people paying bills, specifically to wash found checks in order commit fraud.

Which, if you used to use the blue boxes for mailing thin packages, is a huge annoyance because you can't anymore. :(

Seriously, these days nobody should be writing personal checks using a pen. If you do need a check for a transaction, use a cashier's check (different from a personal check, it's drawn on the bank) for occasional large amounts (like apartment deposit or buying a used car), or most banks allow you to send a paper check via online banking for routine needs -- you fill out the details online and it mails a paper check to the recipient that, AFAIK, can't be washed for check fraud. (All of this is USA specific, to be clear.)

Like many, I learned Bayes' theorem for an exam. I even did well.
But it clicked only when I was reading The Scout Mindset (by Julia Galef). I cannot really tell why. I think it helped me connect math formalism with more real-world examples outside of statistics.

Unless you care about performance. Exceptions have a performance benefit in that there's no cost if they are not thrown. With returning error values, every caller up the chain has to test the error condition.

We've used exactly for this reason to improve performance, albeit this was a long time ago.
I'd say we're more limited by failure of imagination than anything else.
A 2005 report by the UK firefighter union starts with this string of events:

> In March this year a two year old boy died in the
Easterhouse area of Glasgow after he was shot in the
head with an air rifle while walking down the street
with his older brother Police believe that he was
shot accidentally – the real target being firefighters
attempting to put out a kitchen fire A firefighter was
also hit with an airgun pellet at around the same time

> The most shocking thing about this incident is that
it was not an isolated event Attacks on firefighters
are both widespread and increasing In February, a
firefighter was shot at with an air rifle by a group of
youths as he tackled a blaze and attempted to rescue
people trapped in a three storey building in Stockwell,
south London

> On one night at the beginning of March this
year, Belfast fire crews faced eight separate hostile
incidents over a 10-hour period
And at the end of March two firefighters and
a sub-officer were injured when their crew faced
a barrage of missiles – sticks, stones and bottles
– while attending a small rubbish fire in Winton, Eccles
in Lancashire

> In December, a firefighter in Stockton, Cleveland
needed hospital treatment after being punched in the
face and knocked unconscious by youths attempting
to steal a defibrillator and first aid kit from his engine
And these are just the incidents that get reported
in the press In some areas, attacks involving air rifles,
crossbows, missiles including bricks, stones and
bottles or verbal abuse happen virtually every night

Thanks! Last time I checked they were missing critical features. Seems like they made a lot of progress since then.
Rust looks and feels a lot like Ruby (expressions/functional), Java (generics), and Swift (error handling, though Rust was the inspiration).

The novel parts are lifetime specifiers (infrequent), reference/slice sigils (not a big deal), and the weird macro language.
Nobody is talking about lone humans. They're talking about the difference between 8 billion and 16 billion. It's not likely that any significant economies of scale that have somehow not managed to emerge at 8 billion people will emerge when you double that.
While I still do create "atomic notes" in my slip box and approach writing using a bottom up approach advocated by Zettelkaten professionals and enthusiasts, I no longer exclusively use this technique. I approach my writing not only bottom up, but top down. For me, the problem is—and has always been—with atomic notes is while its easy to create little, bite-sized notes, the problem (again: for me) that I accumulate a pile of notes, independent notes that have no connections to one another: no coherent web of thoughts.

One, the diffusion model's possible output space contains every RGB image ever. But two, it cannot ever possibly contain the original inputs verbatim, because (the size of the model)/(the size of the training set) comes out to be something like 0.2 KB per image. Unless it's an incredible compression algorithm, diffusion necessarily have learned something from the input rather than copy-pasting things, as claimed upthread.

This code is easy to read and understand and refactoring it with a callback seems as premature optimization which does bring own flavor to it. In other words, this is a good example when perfect is the enemy of the good.
You can get motorized dampers that you install where the branches come off the main trunk.

My understanding is it's not great to shut down vents all the way since it increases the static pressure in the branch and the air is just going to try to find ways out. You also have to be careful with closing down too many registers as it can cause too much pressure on the furnace. Some furnaces will shut down in this case.

I think this is New Microsoft vs Old Microsoft.

Everyone bitched that Old Microsoft took too long to roll out new technologies and major versions, because it QA'd the shit out of them, so New Microsoft retooled itself to ship faster.

As a consequence, all the bad parts of Microsoft also got the ability to pull request whatever tacky KPI-booster-du-jour was on their pet project list.

If MS gave a damn about this, they'd just make a core-only Windows set of packages available at install-time via flags. Because they know perfectly well what's 1st/3rd-party crapware and what's core-Windows.
