How China is building a parallel generative AI universe
My first thought too, but something about "technical issues" phrasing sounded more e-something.

Also physical builds with plenty lead time tend to happen, while e-plans tend to miss dates.

So just curious.
That quote was factually wrong then is factually wrong today. There are still parliaments in EU countries, they still debate and vote laws.

Yeah, some matters are also discussed at the EU level. That's what happens when different entities make and join a club. They have to collaborate.

Apollo 17 was just over 50 years ago, not 54.

We've had many robots on the moon since then. Yutu-2 has been roaming the surface for nearly 4 years. The Chandrayaan-3 rover is planned to land in summer.

But you mean people, I know.

Sending people to the moon is far more expensive than sending robots, which don't need life support and don't need to return to Earth.

Robotic probes gave us images of Pluto, and helicopters on Mars, and other amazing events. The Dragonfly mission hopes to have drone flying in Titan's atmosphere in 2034.

Of all the amazing things that could be done, why return people to the surface of the Moon when the same amount could do so much more amazing robotic exploration?

Artemis cost, what, $4.1 billion for a single launch, with an estimate of $93 billion project between 2012 and 2025? While all of Mars 2020 cost $3 billion, and New Horizons cost about $700 million.

Not sure and not in a mood to investigate. I do know if cache locality and branch prediction stars line up properly the performance difference can be staggering. Maybe LLVM has accomplished something nice in this department.

This is a measure to help the airline industry adapt to the change.

March 26 is the date of the switch from the winter schedule to the summer schedule for airlines. There are differing rules and visas for entry into Croatia versus Schengen, and changes on the ground like different gate assignments, and given the timing of the final decision (Dec 9th, midway through the winter schedule) it would have meant that airlines would be speculatively changing the rules on their flights mid year, which is obviously unworkable.
It really depends on what you like. But a general rule is to stay away from any games where online gaming is a large component.
But let me play devils advocate here.

50%+ of california decided for this. Have you pondered why? First, are we really talking a massive tax benefit? Prop 13 is about tax increases to be limited ? Is that insane? Or is it maybe housing prices that are insane? Something does not add up.

I dont control the price of my home. Why should I pay ever incessant amounts over something I dont control and is effectively, paper gains?

But, I'll tell you what does control prices. Whose fault it is that there is no property being built in all the farmland along 280 between SF and Palo alto or Menlo Park.. Sure it looks nice, but its 40% of available land. Just farms.

Worse...some of farming is almonds... which take so much (subsidized) water. Again, why?

Why are there no municipalities created in those areas? Why is there no competition in the bay area's overpriced land ? Look into who controls the creation of new municipalities. Thats where a key problem for CA.
I'm not entirely sure, but it seems like parsing the apache/nginx/other webserver access log is enough. When you detect request to some token ID, get email associated with it and send notification pre-recorded by the user.

Keep in mind that Schengen mostly affects visa-free tourism. The EUs single market freedom of movement (which massively expands opportunities) is a different, unrelated concept.
Miss Manners reported her newspaper delivery going astray and calling the paper. The nice man told her "We don't do anything about that, unless the caller is really angry."

So yes there are other ways :)
Part of the problem is that LaTeX is meant in multiple senses: there is the LaTeX installation along with all relevant programs, and then there is the LaTeX format/programming language. When I say I "use C", it means that I write C programs. In this sense, TeXmacs does use (the) LaTeX (programming language). It includes Scheme code which translates the internal TeXmacs format to LaTeX for obvious and extremely useful reasons. To me that means it uses LaTeX. YMMV.
Comanche were the stereotype. The memory of the Comanche empire would have been fresh in the minds of Americans (and Mexicans) in the classical hollywood era. Comanche held territory from Kansas all the way to Mexico. They literally destroyed Northern Mexico. Europeans have no idea how intense life was for anybody that had to live in and around that tribe. And this was in the 1870's (not the 1400's).
X4 Foundations: Maybe not worth playing in 2022, but hopefully by 2023 there will be many improvements which would make this _the_ best space economy simulator of all time.

> I wonder if wire-fraud applies because IIRC the DMCA claimant gets the video's ad revenue

Noting for purpose of precision that the ad revenue instead of takedown for copyright claimants thing is a Youtube policy unrelated to the DMCA rules, yes, the fact that the false claimant gets paid when Youtube accepts the claim, and is aware of this, makes it quite possible for such a claim to be a “scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises” within the scope of the prohibition of the federal wire fraud statute, 18 USC § 1343, the way a DMCA claim to a provider not offering such compensation to the claimant would not be.

For an organization beyond a single entity doing this as a pattern, this also potentially has civil and criminal RICO implications, as wire fraud is a RICO predicate offense.

> I'm always struck by how there's nothing new under the sun

The fact that the 19th century featured provably wrong theories about where the native peoples came from is not suggestive of anything. They thought there was an ether that light traveled through, too.

Native peoples' myths are often "we were always here; we sprang from the earth." Well, we all came from Africa, ultimately.
I believe in winning so the issues I care about most are either acted on or prevented from being acted on. Without winning it’s pointless. You need to win to take power so winning is the most important thing before anything else. Everything else has winning as a prerequisite.

Yes, algorithm agility was already a known concept when Git was developed, so it’s somewhat surprising that SHA-1 was hardcoded.
That's disgusting. The scary thing is that you're probably right.
> The problem is that software development is more craft than art

I regularly swing between the two distinct disciplines of art and programming.

With art, you can make mistakes in a painting, and people barely notice. You notice if you're a perfectionist, but generally, unless they're serious art critics, people don't care that you used black instead of navy for a shadow.

Programming is different. A single rogue missing comma and the whole program fails. There is no room for mistakes.

On the other hand, you can incorporate art into programming if that's your thing. This is why I love the demoscene.

Where I moved, the normal shipping time is 4 to 5 days, USPS.

Since December, it's been 2 weeks.

Usually, it'll arrive a little sooner than they say, though.

Luckily for me, I was getting annoyed with AMZ fake reviews, scammy sellers, and cheap Chinese stuff anyways.

I've been ordering more from manufacturers directly, and getting better stuff delivered faster. I've also been using eBay a lot recently, it's not the wild west it was 15 years ago. Fast shipping, real storefronts. Much better than AMZ for most things.

For stuff I want really quick, I just use Walmart+. They'll usually bring it same day, at worst 2 day shipping.

As an aside, all this has kinda made me wish for a new type of portal. Something similar to ebay, but for legitimate, verified businesses only. Or perhaps even just a portal where I can search, it'll show me prices, but clicking directs me to the store/mfg site to finish?

> Greece and Italy can’t blame Brussels for structural demographics and no industry worth young people sticking around for though

Greece and Italy choose to be part of the EUR, so now they have to pay the price of a choice they made. However, there is a structural problem with the way the common currency is constructed. This has little to do with individual countries and everything to do with the eurozone.

The EURO created a union with a common central bank that lacked a common state to have its back, while simultaneously allowing states to carry on without a central bank to have their backs in times of financial crisis, when states must bail out the banks operating in their territory.

Now during the good times, cross-border loans created unsustainable debts. Then, at the first sign of financial distress (either a public or a private debt crisis), the writing was on the wall: a eurozone-wide spasm whose inevitable outcome was sharp divergence and enormous new imbalances.

The beneficiaries of this situation are some countries and not others, but this is not sustainable in the long run. The EU needs to create a proper banking union and then most likely most to a sort of political integration. Unfortunately the EURO as currently constructed, made that impossible by pitting one country against another.

Yeah it certainly seems to be for less demanding games with parallels anyway. YMMV with other emulators, etc. I have heard crossover is pretty good for some games as well but haven’t tried it myself.
Yeah, these days it's likely for only the frontend to stall during misprediction recovery. Already decoded µops from before the branch still make their way through the backend as normal. If you have enough of those (long dependency chains or the branch was reordered early enough), it's possible that the misprediction has effectively no penalty.

As a corollary, this means that when possible you want the dependency chain for branches to be as independent and short as possible, so the CPU can reorder and resolve branches as early as possible.
Some of the countries like Poland have bilateral agreements with USA allowing 180 days in country. Which makes the recharge rate very minimal, basically just get out for a day, then return to Poland.

Sure, but that's not a copyright issue, that's just the problem of the web in general: by measuring something (ranking the importance of a page) you've introduced an element that can be gamed and whatever means people can use to game it they will use.

But copyright is an entirely different kettle of fish and it is very well possible that Microsoft/GitHub will be able to do an end run around copyright but I don't think they've really thought through what the consequences of that will be. Essentially they are saying 'if you have access to a bunch of source code you are free to slap new terms and conditions on the hosting of that code and then you can use it to train your models, even without active consent of the copyright holders'. In that world Microsoft stands a lot to lose. Much more than your average GitHub repository owner. So this was a terrible mistake on their part.
Ah gotcha. I noticed similar things happening when I was really paying attention in the spring (little league baseball season).

Personally, I found MyRadar to be the best alternative. The mapping is much better so you can get an intuitive feel for the accuracy of the forecast.
I agree. I used to print images by using characters with more ink for the darker blots, down to a single dot (period) or even a blank space for the lightest. Looked pretty good.
Disco Elysium.

Having played literally thousands games this one is my no. 1 recommendation for a long time.

It’s a non-fighting noir RPG where world is the main character. I made three approaches because I was confused by it. Minor spolier - confusion is part of the setting.

I always think of it as of Napoleon Dynamite movie. Reception differs depending on your mood. It can be hilarious. It can be heart breaking. It’s been 2 years and I still am reminiscing the story. True masterpiece.
With the current interest rates and inflation, those people will also need to be well off to even get started.

Although I share the sentiment, Brussels elites are equally or more buffoons.

There are some "pro-Brussels" arguments. For example right now Greece is in the midst of a spying scandal and the only way the judiciary pays attention is to avoid pressure from Brussels. Local journalists try to escalate to European bodies because locally the judiciary bodies are either corrupted or toothless.

So, there's at least that.
A law that results in negative outcomes outweighing the positive ones is a bad law, yes.

Is there anywhere to get the actual image data, in either text or bitmap form? The photo of the print version isn't terrible but it's not particularly good either.
That said, I have seen people tricked into thinking branches are only if statements. If using polymorphism to reduce if statements, you'll still want to reduce the variations of the types sent through the code. Well, strictly you just want the variations to be predictable, I suppose?
Did the operating system the machine shipped with know what to do with that MMU or was it ignored if installed and only used by alternative os's?
With all due respect, perhaps you should see a seminal film before making sweeping judgements of American film portrayal of Native Americas? I'm not sure what your reference to the Iroquois and Seminoles has to do with it. Certain tribes are in American awareness more than others. That happened pre-TV and modern-day media. I don't think you get to decide who Kevin Costner writes films about, but you could write your own.

Croatia has effectively adopted the euro for decades. Most property (and other large) transactions are executed in euros and people have taken out loans in euros. The Croatian central bank understands that a good chunk of the economy already works in euros and has had a policy of keeping the kuna steady with the euro, even before it was required.

The biggest differences besides the different banknotes is that exchange rate risk has been eliminated, interest rates have gone down and Croatia's credit rating has gone up.
Google calendar does not reflect this if you look at September 1752. I'm not sure if that'e because they chose a different crossover point, or just ignored it altogether.

Edit: Same for Fastmail
This is the safe approach.

Rust’s name shadowing is technically safe, but a massive footgun because humans are human and assume that in the same scope the same name refers to the same thing.

With name shadowing, you have to read through every line to make sure that the otherwise immutable value hasn’t been replaced with an impostor.

IMHO, it’s one of the worst Rust design decisions and shouldn’t be copied.

People will say they’re too lazy to come up with temporary variable names, meanwhile Rust doesn’t have multiple dispatch so every fn name has to be unique, which I personally find more irritating…
