Obvious but wrong. Only salespeople and M&A dealmakers add to the bottom line. All engineers and marketers are cost centers. One acquistion can add billions to revenue. Taking a charge for impairment of good will after a Waymo vehicle kills a busload of Girl Scouts would have nothing to do with that many employees. Earnings changes due to currency fluctuations also have nothing to do with employment. Oh yeah, customers using more or less of paid services doesn't reflect at all on employees either.
Nice for steganography applications.
Good one, thanks for sharing, and rings true, except for the last clause of the quote:

>but never to your true self - your mind.

Advaita (Vedanta) would beg to differ, and say that your true self is the witness (sakshi) of both the body and mind, and of the world through them. :)
That's fair.

I see those actions as setting up barriers but they do prevent people who can't meet that barrier out. My thinking of gatekeeping is more absolute, as in "there is no way for you to enter here" and thus "breaking the gate" would have legal and/or diplomatic consequences.

So for me there are two concepts, trade barriers and gatekeeping. Tariffs come under the heading of trade barriers as well in my view.

It's gotten much easier in the 24 hours because of this binary release of a popular stable diffusion setup+UI: https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/rele...

(you still need a Nvidia GPU)

Extract the zip file and run the batch file. Find the cptk (checkpoint) file for a model you want. You can find openjourney here: https://huggingface.co/openjourney/openjourney/tree/main. Add it to the model directory.

Then you just need to go to a web browser and you can use the AUTOMATIC1111 webui. More information here: https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui

What is the value of all the historical data?

Because if the historical data isn't all that valuable, I feel like Jetnet bought a turd. Building and operating a service like ADS-B Exchange doesn't sound particularly technically challenging or expensive.

Building a community of people who send you data for free is the hard and time-consuming part; IMO that's where ADSBx's value is. Did Jetnet not anticipate that the acquisition would likely drive away a good number of those people? Seems pretty naive if they didn't.

Given the vast difference in power, it’d probably have been enough to just cascade all the various layers they already have. Arm > x86 > ppc > 68k

Even if each layer loses, say, 50% performance, the fastest 68k was only 75mhz.

(Although now that I think about it I think the handled the 68k/ppc transistion by just making everyone compile for both and slap em into the same binary. Memory is hazy.. it’s been at least 20 years since I’ve touched a classic mac)

What is the end goal, end state of DEI programs ?

Once the numbers (quotas, designated equity proportions, etc.) are reached, are DEI administrators then thinned out ? I'm talking a future, theoretical situation. In order to answer 'what happens when the goals are met' we first need to establish what are the goals and then see if they are transparent from the outset or loose and forever adapting. If not then the risk is a future self-important bureaucratic arm that exists for its own sake.

The answer can't possibly be, "they will forever be needed due to the racist and sexist nature of society" because now we're saying something interesting and possibly self-contradictory about our natures (we're not supposed to have natures, we're products of society/class/culture, is the foundational belief of the DEI ideas as they must be).

Therefore an end goal is a must-have.
Thanks.

I admire their ingenuity, but the fact that this requires a round trip from the device to my phone to the cloud and back to the car (and consequently, requires that both my phone and the car have cell service) renders it basically a non-starter for me.

Dinero stores three pieces of data with a dynamic scale: https://v2.dinerojs.com/docs/core-concepts/scale

- amount: expressed in the smallest subdivision of the currency, as an integer.

- currency: unique code, base, and exponent

- scale: the scale is essential to accurately represent monetary values without losing precision. It automatically adapts as needed to ensure you always retain accurate amounts.

---

Multiply[1]: If you need to multiply by a fractional multiplier, you shouldn't use floats, but scaled amounts instead. For example, instead of passing 2.1, you should pass { amount: 21, scale: 1 }. When using scaled amounts, the function converts the returned objects to the safest scale.

Allocate[2] (alternative to dividing): Distribute the amount of a Dinero object across a list of ratios.

<< I will accept we agree to disagree and I'm perfectly fine with it, but the wave of layoffs in IT sector is because of lack of money to pay salaries.

I was with you. I was genuinely nodding along ( including the other comment ) until this portion. That is a hard no.

Notice how there is seemingly simultaneously not enough money in the budget for tech workers ( I do not want to limit this conversation to IT support, which is what many equate IT with -- did the use of that acronym change ? ) while there is indeed money for MS executives to enjoy the show[1], money for bonuses[2] and.. I was going to end with a joke but decided against it.

I am genuinely unsure how you can reasonably argue otherwise with a straight face.

There's a ton of good technics to dive into, but in my mind it's almost all to address one leading sore point of containers:

With composefs, if two containers have the same file- wherever on the filesystem it is- that file will only be stored once on the host, and (equally if not more importantly) it will be shared in the page-cache (the cache for file contents). Currently, in most systems, different images end up having replicas of the same file that aren't shared on disk or in the page-cache.

If, for example, your org has a handful of base images it works from, it could drastically reduce the footprint of containers, both on disk and in memory. By effectively sharing the things that can be shared.
If you can virtualize the FireWire connection you can probably make this work by running a supported OS in a VM.

That's fine. You haven't cited any compelling evidence of it, though, as all the responses have pointed out.
For the other inhabitants of the world, certainly, but by what metric has it been a disaster for the human race? There are potential serious issues in the making, but as of yet we are largely living longer and with lower rates of malnutrition and starvation than any time before us.

To keep growing (both in quantity but also in health and life outcomes) we will need to find a new balance. We weren't necessarily in balance of any sort before then, either. Everything changes, and we will keep changing with the times.
The US is under ever-increasing pressure to 'do something' about the losses in the Ukraine War. Especially where there is pressure to remove the US Dollar as the Reserve Currency of the World. Look at that as an 'upward' slope of pressure towards War.

The US is declining relative to China in wealth and power. Look at that as a 'downward slope'. Around 2024-2025 is where the inversion between US Power and Chinese power swap over. After that, the US will be less and less inclined to fight China as China will be more likely to win.

Put the two slopes together and you get an inverted-'V', with the US under very high pressure to engage in conflict over the next two years while it's still possible for the US to win, but then followed by a lessening in the inclination towards getting its head kicked in after that.
My main gripe is that "stonehenge" gives an impression of these huge megalithic structures, while they're actually "4 feet high and about 5 feet long" rocks (1.2 by 1.5 metres). It's not quite a Spinal Tap sized stonehenge, but closer to that than the actual stonehenge.

I don't care that it's not actually a "henge", it's just that the mental picture of it is all wrong. Even just adding the word "small" or some such would greatly improve things.
And also the reason why no large company will touch macos (and I imagine it is the same thing server side).
Intel Macs do, though; until Apple removed it. Worked fine in Mojave, but me (and many others) one day rebooted our Macs to find dozens of programs, libraries and plugins that no longer worked.

Whole thing sorta smells like Apple trying to further assert the dominance of AArch64, what with their insane stake in the ISA and it's eventual dominance. Not a terrible thing inherently, but the push to depreciate 32-bit hardware and software alike was pointless. 32-bit ARM can (and should) live alongside AArch64 as an ISA. From what I understand, the M1 even has secure 32-bit emulation mode built-in, without any OS functionality to leverage it.

Whatever Apple does, it's hard for developers to treat the Mac like a regular development target now. Besides the ISA change, the push for Metal-agnostic GPU pipelines has left developers scrambling. Massive open projects like Blender didn't even have an Apple Silicon strategy until Apple sponsored one. It's a bit of a mess, and kinda tragic that Apple is pointlessly complicating cross-platform development.
I would do a negative income tax basically at the lowest earnings (that is they basically get graduated credits). I'd simplify the tax code so we'd only need half the IRS or less and then repurpose some of them to making sure the negative income tax is refunded. Unemancipated children would not be included in the refund.

My prediction is especially neglect but also abuse are often symptoms of poverty and insufficient economic security. I do not believe economically starving the parents is somehow going to help the neglect of overburdened parents, but I can respect some possible hints that may be drawn from your question. My belief is the number of kids saved through such a measure would outdo the number the social workers would have saved. But that is just a theory.

I think this is unnecessarily credulous about what is really going on with ChatGPT. It is not "applying the concepts of a poem" or checking meter and verse, it is generating text to fit a (admittedly very complicated) function that minimizes the statistical improbability of its appearance given the preceding text. One example is its use of rhyming words, despite having no concept of what words sound like, or what it is even like to hear a sound. It selects those words because when it has seen the word "poem" before in training data, it has often been followed by lines which happen to end in symbols that are commonly included in certain sets.

Human cognition is leagues different from this, as our symbolic representations are grounded in the world we occupy. A word is a representation of an imaginable sound as well as a concept. And beyond this, human intelligence not only consists of pattern-matching and replication but pattern-breaking, theory of mind, and maybe most importantly a 1-1 engagement with the world. What seems clear is that the robot was trained to recognize a certain pattern of pixels from a camera input, but neither the robot nor ChatGPT has any conception of what a "threat" entails, the stakes at hand, or the common-sense frame of reference to discern observed behaviors that are innocuous from those that are harmful. This allows a bunch of goofy grunts to easily best high-speed processors and fancy algorithms by identifying the gap between the model's symbolic representations and the actual world in which it's operating.
Dating inscriptions is difficult because you usually can't directly date the removed material. The typical method is to start constraining when the carvings could possibly have been made. The Winnemucca lake petroglyphs are a good example of this process [0]. I'm unable to find a public field report for the site, but my guess is that the 9kya date is a terminus ante quem for when the site was flooded and the stones submerged.

I believe which paper you implement matters less than you think. Most papers take some kind of well-known base model, make a few tweaks, and then run experiments. To implement it you need to follow the references and start with the base model, and 99% of all papers within some field will eventually lead you back to implementing the same base model, so it really doesn't matter where you start. The overlap is huge.
Yeah, it's always the same w/ this: there's absolutely no consensus whatsoever. I once removed "git" as keyword (as i.e. recommended at the beginning of the post), and got asked tirelessly by recruiters if I actually didn't know git, and why I wasn't mentioning it... So yeah, those skills list are meant for recruiters and machines alike...
I've only tried out stable diffusion to any real extent, but seeing what other people have gotten out of the other two I can easily say it's the least performant of the bunch.
To share the starting point I found helpful, start with the question to yourself: "Am I aware?"

Go to the experience of validating that answer. That is your anchor and starting point.

You know that to be 100 percent true.

Then separate what you are aware of from you (that which is aware).

Then investigate the nature of the attribute you know you have for certain. Is it limited in anyway? Is it personal? Does all experience depend on it or does it depend on some element of experience?

Clarify the understanding of your experience of yourself. And only then ask this question again.
Whatever the standard is for the language. Unless we're in a language without a standard (cough cough PHP cough cough). I work in a real snakecase mixed with camelcase PHP codebase at seemingly random intervals. Worst part is that this codebase started only a few years ago.

Fuchsia was (when I left) strictly Vulkan in the core OS interfaces for the rendering stack. Picking one technology rather than pulling over several reduces the overall cost of solving for sandboxing that technology. There is still plenty to do in the Vulkan space though - where Chrome solved for webgl we don't yet have a full equivalent for Vulkan, and in some ways Vulkans design has things that make this extra painful (ICDs).

At the time when I left the ICD loader is in fact a special case in the OS where it's one of the few mechanisms by which regular components ever get executable memory that does not come directly from their own package (which is a normal and significant design encouraged and policy enforced constraint for most product builds on top of the OS, excepting JITs which are rare). The ICD loader provides a special path for the ICD and some associated data to be loaded from a peer component at runtime. An ideal eventual outcome for secure systems would be to find ways to avoid this vendor runtime mixing, instead for mechanisms to efficiently push command queues through stages of processing. The Vulkan folks have performance related cases to make as to why they took the route they did - I suspect a middle ground is possible eventually but would need new specs and new drivers.

Not everything needs this capability, and not everything gets it. Product builds out of the OS can effectively apply policy as to what components get this capability and arrange for other solutions to rendering as best fits the product. The system design makes these choices explicit, rather than implicit, and can be tuned for a particular balance of security, performance and other properties.

There was an RFC recently formalizing some of these details, I've not gone over it to see if it also introduced significant new changes. https://fuchsia.dev/fuchsia-src/contribute/governance/rfcs/0...
