But it looks like explore is based on google earth. So the free preview is better than the paid thing ?

It seems inevitable then that we soon will have various large models in competition, with differently sourced legally licensed large training datasets. And opt-in open-source ones. And they will one day all hopefully be as good or better than the current models are now.
By that reasoning content-length should include headers. Needless to say you have not changed my mind. There's never going to be a hard and fast rule distinguishing headers from content. It's all just data after all. That doesn't mean it's a good idea to eliminate the distinction entirely.

It's almost as if software engineers are doomed to this pendulum of constraining and then under constraining. It happened with SQL and noSQL and it seems to be happening now with HTTP. Constraints are for your own benefit but maybe it takes time to really grok that.

Often times signature checking is fused in during provisioning. That is to say, if they had it enabled before there is a good chance they’re unable to disable it. You’ll probably need to find a vulnerability in the iMX8 bootROM which checks these fuse bits to bypass it.

You’d need to read the iMX8 docs to know for sure, but it does support full secure boot IIRC.

Edit:
Yup this appears to be true.

“The public key is included in the final binary and a hash of the public key is programmed in the SoC, in One-Time Programmable e-fuses, for establishing the root of trust.”

To respond to both you and the sibling comment, a short take home assignment which is used to guide a final interview is fine for junior positions.

For senior positions, I would rather spend an hour or two talking through hypothetical scenarios, including design decisions and teamwork. I want to hear deeper knowledge from a candidate, not "do they know valid syntax and are they able to solve trivial problems".

As in all things, it depends on the company that is doing the hiring and the role they are being hired for. In some cases, "senior" roles are basically individual contributors with a few years of experience. In others, a senior should be able to translate business requirements into a big picture technical solution, break down the portions of the stack they are familiar with, and explain what assumptions are made and what unknown factors need to be sussed out in order to plan a proper implementation.

The latter portion is difficult to do with a take home assignment without careful planning for the follow-up interviews. 5 hour round-robin interviews typically (in my experience) end up being "live leet code" sessions that don't represent day-to-day work at all.

Most training cases are covered by fair use. The problem is when the work is licensed with specific clauses about derivative works. The weights are a derivative work of the open source code on which they were trained.

How are you using the word “copy”? It doesn’t seem to match the standard meaning. For instance, most people would not consider a brief summary of a movie’s plot to be a “copy” of that movie, or protected under copyright.

It is not pulled out of thin air. It's Stanford/Hoover, if they have access to the mean they have access to the median, probably more fine grained data too.

In Detroit, the memory of abandonment is kept alive with the constant visual reminder of abandoned manufacturing infrastructure and homes from 70+ years ago. You can't escape it. I used to drive in from Lansing with my friends to see concerts back in late 90s. Miles and miles of abandoned factories, warehouses, and neighborhoods right next to the highway. Take the wrong exit and you felt like you entered a post apocalyptic world. We would brave the concert, then drive back to a factory town that somehow didn't receive the same treatment.
> So if it was never released on DVD or Blu-ray, then where did the source for the torrents come from?

If it's something old without a DVD/BluRay release these will usually be a WEBRip (literally a screen recording of DRM'd content) or a WEB-DL (someone has cracked the DRM, or it was DRM free).

You'll only find VHS rips on highly specialized trackers (usually).
Really hoping that the Tables product survives this. They were supposed to "graduate it" out of Area 120 soon, with a full v1 joining the Workspace suite, but that hasn't happened yet.

>What is with all the homeless people so against shelters?

…

> In every interview of a homeless person, every time someone asks them about taking them to shelter for help, they recoil in fear and say "No, they steal/are violent/evil." etc...

…

> Maybe they are also treated poorly by shelters.

I would venture to say that if every person interviewed said the same thing every time, “What’s the problem??” becomes much less of a head scratcher.

The only way you could arrive at “Maybe they are treated poorly” logically would be if you think that there is a good chance that every person interviewed was lying every single time. If that’s your view on things, you’ll literally be mystified forever.

It does make sense with new code, yes. Whether for all code or not, or whether unit tests or integration or end to end tests though is up to your judgement. No one but you, who knows your system and your capabilities and knowledge, can decide for you. Only fools expect a technique to replace thinking. I assume you're not a fool.

For new code, the reason it makes sense is that your system is bugged. It does not do what it's intended to do yet because you haven't written the code to do it (or altered the existing code to add the new capability). So the test detects the difference between the current state of the system and the desired state, and then you implement the code and now the test detects that you have achieved your desired state (at least as far as the test can detect, you could still have other issues).
The shelters are full of folks who are homeless for whatever reason. Presumably the people who are homeless because they are assholes that feel entitled to other people's things and those who are homeless because they're mentally ill and don't understand what they're doing make it an unpleasant place for those who are in dire straights for the same or other reasons. The tragedy of the commons distilled down to those who found themselves unable to afford a place to live.

If we roll back in history, England sent theirs off to the colonies. Largely the US and Australia. Now that there's quite the (legitimate) general outcry against transportation as a punishment, we have to deal with them here.

> No one would live in Detroit because it’s bleak and sprawling. San Francisco is beautiful and cosmopolitan. The trajectory of Detroit is irreversible and structural

As someone who just moved to Detroit (in October of 2022), I could not disagree more.

This city is clearly on the upswing and it is immensely beautiful.

Do not sleep on Detroit.

If anything, it is absurd for this "article" to compare whatever is happening in San Francisco to a completely unrelated population decline event in Detroit that spanned over 70 years.

In other words, I am not sure why Detroit would be brought into this "analysis" at all. That is what is absurd.
This is impressive!
Yes, new code too. If the test doesn't fail at first, you have a different problem than you thought.
It needs more polishing and more mobile testing.

> The only time I saw scrum masters really do anything was “leading” standup and “leading” planning meetings every other month.

AFAIK, scrum masters are supposed to be that one that goes from person to person, looking if everything is ok, if they need help, or if they should be doing something else.

That certainly is not "leading". It is indeed some kind of "managing", mostly because this word is incredibly ambiguous. It is also the problem solved by dailys, so if your dailys are useful, it means your scrum master is useless. As far as I can see, there is no reason to have both. (And I'm still doubtful about any reason to have one of them.)
Plots and visualizations in 3D. (Vulkan / WGPU) For example, to compare wave function solutions, I use surface plots of a 2D slice. I have a UI that can change the slice of the non-mapped axis. Plots of psi'', the potential etc too.

Or for simulating molecular motion, draw it out in 3D, with 6DOF FPS-style camera controls etc.

I imagine Pandas would be OOM too slow for this. Compared to Numpy, Pandas is, in my experience far too slow. Another speed limitation is Matplotlib's 3D plots make my computer crawl when rotating them etc; and they're not very interactive, at least on their own.

When dealing with these systems, a particular computational challenge is that they're 3D, so computation scales with precision^3. (This also adds complications to visualization, as I alluded to above)

It was not for no reason. It's that people knew Python 2, whereas for many what they knew about Python 3 was:

- I heard it is a lot of work to switch over (must be pretty different!).

- Learning more about it is on my todo list, but I haven't had a chance to get around to it yet.

That's not to excuse their decisionmaking from a do-the-right-thing standpoint, because they weren't doing right by their clients, but I feel it's totally understandable. I remember speaking to conscientious engineers a few years before that who only knew a smattering of Python from the 2.7 era and were apprenhensive about starting a new project in 3.x. Sometimes you just have to hold people's hands a little. Maybe not a "good" reason, but so it goes.
I've heard that the official clips of Saturday Night Live on YouTube are routinely posted with edits in which significant chunks are excised for "problematic" jokes, without any notice.

I zoomed in, was also disappointed. Don't know the use case for these photos, but when you compare it to the quality of say a drone photo, SkyFi is nowhere near as good.

You take the comment far too literally.
On mobile it redirects you to the app-store apps.
De minimis is a longstanding defense in copyright law. If you are copying very little from very many works, as is the case when you turn multiple petabytes into a few gigabytes of neural network weights, you are in the clear. The problem arises when models overfit and spit out almost perfect copies of the training data.
Is this just a reseller for Maxar imagery?

FYI if you're working on a federal grant, you technically have access to Maxar imagery for free for legitimate purposes via the NextView license, though in practice getting access is a bit harder (if you work in polar programs, the Polar Geospatial Center will help...).

> So, all neural network developers, get ready for the lawyers, because they are coming to get you.

This is just dumb.
TDD's first step is write *a test*, not "write tests". Batch size of one. If it was "write tests," it'd be more waterfall.
Incorrect. Training images are used to generate a latent manifold which might not contain any of the images in the original training set to within a meaningful delta unless they're massively overrepresented or cliche.
I suspect it’s primarily a mix of three things. The first is price discrimination, like you mention. The second is wanting to have some control over the sales process (price anchoring, tempering sticker stock, etc.). The third is related to the second: focusing inbound sales efforts by subtly communicating that “if you have to ask, you can’t afford it” for a large chunk of price-sensitive customers.
I have to say that I don’t have much sympathy for a tenant holding a rent-controlled unit and subletting it. That doesn’t seem to be a valid aim of any sensible rent-control policy.

Hadean Lands is a great modern IF game where you learn alchemical rituals, and have to figure out the meaning behind them to modify the ritual to solve puzzles. And I’ll second the recommendation for Emily Short’s Counterfeit Monkey.

It's fairly straightforward: TDD is red/green/refactor, which means you're working in very small steps (about a minute or two each) and thinking about design during two out of three of those steps.

During "red", you're thinking about the design of your public interface.

During "green," you're focusing on implementation.

During "refactor," you're thinking about how to improve the quality of your implementation and how to improve the overall design, and making those changes.

If you believe that spending a lot of time thinking about and improving your design will produce a high-quality design, then TDD will produce a high-quality design. QED.

If you don't accept the axiom, then it's a longer discussion, but that's the proof, and my experience is that it does in fact work.

(If you're looking for a rigorous study and proof, you won't find it, because there are no rigorous studies that formally prove what creates high-quality design. Partially because there is no formal definition of "high-quality design" in the first place.)
I have no clues about laws and stuff and as a software engineer, I'd say please replace me by machines i dont care all the contrary, let's go.

But please, please, protect art making from machines. These paints made in those caves werent done during work hours, it was probably the first forms of leasure our ancestors experienced. The first forms of enjoyment in the rude life of early humans. I think there is some higher order aspect to art that's related to our essential well being.

All Im saying is protect it; im not saying AI shouldnt be used. It could certainly render art making even more fun. Maybe limit the resolution of generated pictures for example.
Amazing how many of them don't even bother to advertise what the drug does. They just show happy people who say they use that brand of drug, often with zero context of what it actually does. It's mainly for brand affinity now.
If you have an image, then train a neural network on that image, then use the neural network to reconstruct that image in detail, then the NN by definition contains enough information used to reconstruct that image - hence, a copy.

With NNs trained on thousands or millions of data entries, this concept becomes fuzzy in the same way as you described - a short summary likely wouldn't be considered a copy, just like a 64x64 generated thumbnail wouldn't be considered in the same way a 4096x4096 hi-res image.
I got called once at 4am to perform an urgent CT scan on a patient with “borborygmus” as a junior resident.

At the time I was unfamiliar with this term (which means a rumbling or gurgling sound in the belly) and did not for a moment consider that a nephrologist was listening to someone’s belly in the middle of the night. Given how scary the word sounded I performed a stat CT.

I googled it after the scan was completely normal. One of the most embarrassing and angering moments of my medical career so far. I swore since that day I would die fighting the crusade against those demons who auscultate bowel sounds.
