Your question aligns with the argument I'm trying to make which is: If it turns out that our understanding of ToM is wrong, should we be making proclamations about--whether for or against--the real-ness of our current AI implementations?
Beating Git's network effects sounds extremely difficult, especially since very few users of Git run into serious problems scaling it.

I'm guessing it's derived from plumbing jargon[0], in the sense of inserting an access point into an existing system to gain access to the resource inside; this idea is also found metaphorically in the common phrasal verb "tap into"[1] (make use of or gain advantage from an existing resource).

> The partners will jointly develop a Molten Salt Reactor suitable for use in marine vessels

A strange choice. All the 25 operating nuclear reactors in South Korea are pressurized water reactors (PWR). All 3 of the reactors under construction are also PWR. The further 2 proposed reactors are PWR. South Korea has roughly zero experience with Molten Salt Reactors. And of course, zero experience with marine reactors.

The pragmatic choice would be to try to mount PWRs on ships, not MSRs. They apparently secured some design approval from the American Bureau of Shipping, which makes you wonder if they'll need one from the (US) Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Which I don't see coming any time soon, or at least not before the NRC approves MSRs for land based power plants.
People have forgotten 20 years ago the US intercepted Iraqi aluminium tubes. They are fully capable of detecting what ever they want to imagine. And these days American imagination is purely restricted to what collects Likes and upvotes.

Do we know why they are shot down? How do we know there is no dangerous material in them (e.g. radioactive)?
Pretty sure withholding information (that they presume is accurate) about such a big topic is the act of swaying an election. Not the other way around.
I don't see how that's a moral failure, it's just how console businesses operate, as you noted.
Maybe some of the poorer networks have residual 3G equipment, but in general, the US has been cracking down on Huawei for a decade. They don't have a huge presence in the US.

Good question. I’d be interested to know too.
There may be other Chromium-based browsers which do this, but none that I use: on launch the user is (optionally) prompted with a profile selection tool, with additional options to create a new profile or go into a guest session. I appreciate this because without it I often end up wondering why something isn't behaving properly, and after a moment of confusion then realize I'm in the wrong profile.

It's not perfect, and I prefer Firefox's rules-driven containers, but for anything which requires Chrome I've found it sufficient.
They also entered the extreme bloatware phase, see new Samsung phone with 60GB occupied out of the gate.

Solving the Right Problem
Well, if you had the search ranking algorithms or the bot-detection algorithms or anything inherently adversarial like that, then you could do all kinds of nefarious things. But that stuff's locked down more tightly. Likewise with a few ultra-hard-tech things where the implementation's a major competitive edge.
Cloudless sky is cold, and at 30,000 feet extremely cold. Anything not-sky is going to contrast against the sky, even if it has no internal heat source (and remember: if it has electric things in it, it produces heat).

SML is probably my favourite programming language, and ML for the Working Programmer is probably my favourite programming book. It is indeed sad to think that I'll probably never use it seriously or even meet another SML programmer in my life (I met one at university in a larger city once, but it seems unlikely to happen again where I am now).

OCaml is good, though I personally dislike its complexity compared to SML ("Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away." and all that). There are also remote OCaml jobs in the world, so it's not completely impossible I could do something like that in the future.

The jet stream currently has a strong west to east north east component from Montana to the Great lakes. The winds peed varies greatly depending on altitude, but a floating object can easily be pushed along at speeds in excess of 120mph.

People need to understand that if you’re being attacked by a FTL capable alien invader, you are so incredibly f**ed that it just does not matter.

People don’t write popular sci fi novels about realistic alien invasions because they would be so utterly one sided and brief that it simply wouldn’t make a good story.
It’s over some of the most remote land anywhere in the world, and it would be coming down somewhere anyway.

Even if it was full of plutonium, there probably is no better place for it to come down.
Ask HN: Anyone Moved from AWS Lambda (Zappa) to AWS Fargate?
I host a SaaS on AWS Lambda using Zappa, which has generally been very good.

I'm looking to get better performance mostly in the form of response times, and initial tests show Fargate should offer that. Has anyone made or not made the switch from Lambda to Fargate (keeping to simple serverless)? If so, what has your experience been like including cost implications?
I really think Jack in the show is much more of a parody of Microsoft execs and Steve Ballmer, with the conjoined triangles of success and all.
>>Also the UN is an absolute joke

UN is literally just a forum for countries to meet and discuss matters. Nothing more nothing less. I have no idea why people expect UN to take action, when UN is explicitly not an organisation for taking any actions.
I suspect these have always been here.

In fact, the NOAA launches dozens of weather balloons daily.

Seems like recent attention is causing a bit of an over correction.

To explain to the rest of the class - right now Huron is a wind-whipped, cold, miserable place to be. It’s not surprising Johnny Fisherman isn’t out these days.
I imagine looking for vulnerable areas of the code might be something people would be interested in doing. Maybe start with login or billing or something. You could also look at recent activity to spot new, unannounced projects. You could use blame to find who wrote what and target them for anything from job offers to social engineering attacks.
I can’t wait until they try shooting one of those tic-tac aliens.. “Good News! It’s a suppository!”
Maybe that's the main difference. In the student days you're forced to learn enormous amounts of new skills in impossibly short time spans. Afterwards you kind of have to self motivate if you want to continue, and dive into research papers to get up to speed on the bleeding edge stuff since there's no real other study material available yet.

I've found myself mainly focusing on learning things from adjacent or unrelated fields instead, since I guess it's easier to get a grasp of the pre-grad stuff. It sure isn't making me any better at my job though lol.
Fair enough. I only mentioned it because of this sentence: "The poor go to laundromats."

Since that was not enough, there is a more obvious point I should have made:

Having the choice to be efficient or inefficient means having the option naturally allows you to choose the most time efficient options exclusively. Which a poor person would not have.

Given your example, the poor person in the laundromat has extreme social anxiety and can't even bring themselves to focus on something like reading while handling their laundry. Their clothes get stolen if they leave. They are forced to walk in a freezing cold climate with icy paths and blistering snow-filled wind 1 hour each way.

The lack of choice in the matter makes it a time tax compared to the person who can just choose that one specific scenario to just stay home and use the equipment in their well-heated home.
Culture eats processes for lunch.

It is incredibly frustrating to join a new team, point out the very obvious misalignment between agile and what they are doing...

and then become assimilated and just march on becoming part of that same culture.
Remember when we had mods and games like desert-combat (bf2 devs) and counter-strike got created.

I'd like to see DLC die tomorrow please and we get back to passionate people making maps and mods again.. maybe have a community where people build things, become game developers because they enjoyed the hobby.
Besides the missile, these pilots need hours anyways. Unlikely to be adding significant expense since this can replace hours elsewhere.
NASA’s XL-Calibur travelled over 4,000 km between Sweden and Nunavut in 5-7 days[1]. Montana to Huron is less then half the distance. 24 hours is a bit fast, but not impossible.

https://twitter.com/markp8183/status/1546936037112393728

EDIT: To give a more clear example. It took XL-Calibur a little more then 30 hour to travel from Hudson Bay to Yellowknife. That is not much shorter then some distance between Montana and Huron
Not related to the content, the amount of ads in this website makes the article barely readable, especially on mobile.
While the government will classify their information thinking the media has it but isn't posting it is really just dumb. If any member of the public had it, it would have spread across Twitter/tictok like wildfire.
> having large teams operate as cogs, with higher level tools, and this has been battle tested for years.

That’s what I mean by the same crap. It’s not that the engine is unchanged and they never add new gameplay elements, but rather the team/company knows more or less exactly the kind of game that they’re making on day one and therefore what kinds of people they need etc.

Specialization isn’t a bad thing, but it does mean you can get away with less generally competent team, which very much plays a role in staffing etc.
Is this posted due to all the balloons/objects being publicly shot down recently?

I suppose a cheaper way to shoot down trash will be a good thing if this keeps pace.

Currently thos could be a scheme to get the US to waste 1M dollars to shoot down a 20k drone/balloon... The tactic only works when the cost is imbalanced
Most of that work is done by the owners of the dependencies, rather than the dependents.

This is sometimes a problem for open source dependencies, though, as there isn't always anyone whose job it is to keep them up to date. Some amount of NIH syndrome is because reinventing the wheel can be less work than integrating an existing wheel that was designed for a different vehicle with different specs.
> Yes, optimizing to a metric leads to problems, but it's better than optimizing to nothing. And those problems can be mitigated

Citation needed. Elsewhere I've seen it claimed that actually, most people want to do a good job, and so any metric ends up doing more harm than good. And half of the suggestions in that twitter thread (keeping the metric private, changing it over time) seem to point in the direction of actually not having a metric and relying on human judgement instead.
The key sentence "SILEX is the only privately held information that is classified by the U.S. government." appears to be un-cited original research.

Privately held information that is classified by the US government is more common than that. There were thousands of patent secrecy orders as of 2007: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invention_Secrecy_Act

Though that does have the slight side effect of ageing the rest of the world as well.
This is how I see it now too. The manufacturers are capitalizing on people needing to have the best by making even more expensive top tier components. You don’t need 4K or ray tracing to enjoy a triple-A game. Last year, I got a 3070-equipped system, force feedback driving wheel, and a 4k TV as a monitor for under $2k. The games are still quite gorgeous, and I have no idea what I’m missing by not having something more expensive.
They are cylindrical, grey, without apparent means of aerial propulsion, and prone to interfering with ultrasonic sensors...

Most dolphins are smaller than a compact car, but I bet they would break apart upon impact with a frozen sea after dropping out of the sky. This might be the correct answer.
> Oculus is the best selling VR headset available, it sold way more than the Index

Release date of Valve Index: 2019-06-28

Release date of first Oculus¹: 2016-03-28

There were about three years of tech adoption by consumers between these releases, Oculus was, before their first commercial HMD release, was acquired by Facebook for US$2 Billion, FB which could also use its near monopoly in social networks to place ads and thus influence billions of people to buy the product(s) of one of its subsidiaries.

In contrast:

> It sold an estimated 149,000 sets in 2019, 103,000 of which were in the fourth quarter due to the announcement of Half-Life: Alyx, which buyers received for free. The sudden demand caused the unit to be sold out in all 31 countries except Japan in January 2020. As of December 2019, 6.67% of the VR units connected to Steam are Valve Index sets. While Valve had anticipated supply for many of those that had ordered the Index in time for the March 2020 release of Half-Life: Alyx, the COVID-19 pandemic impacted production of the Index which left Valve with a reduced number of units available on the release date.

You are probably right, I'm not an expert on this process. But there's likely a difference between the innate eukaryotic cell polyadenylation process vs. how coronavirus accomplishes polyadenylation because coronavirus rna never enters the nucleus.
For those like me who wanted to know the actual OS size:

Really far if you're using free local buses! Not that far if you're using trains and/or cars.
That's not how that works.

Even if tomorrow morning a $1 LIDAR came out, it'd be a long time before you saw it in a vehicle and the costs around the integration into their stacks (even when amortized across the number of AVs being produced) would still leave them completely untenable for individual ownership.

And if your thought is "well just increase the number of AVs produced", the designs being used also aren't aiming to be mass producible on the scale of a Tesla because again, they're not artificially hobbling their approaches with that in mind.

-

And it's not just LIDAR. Specialized sensors that can't even be sourced in those kinds of numbers, compute resources, infrastructure for those resources (both on and off vehicle).

Profitably producing cars is a game of pennies completely opposed to what AVs require. Trying to integrate solving AVs into that framework is pretty much resigning yourself to not doing either particularly well... unless you're only paying lip service to one side: hence why I use the terminology "real competitors".

And to be clear, I don't think Tesla doesn't know better, or is incapable of actually trying. It's a very intentional choice. Traditional manufacturers would do terrible terrible things to extract $7500 additional dollars for a software switch (they've done that for a lot less!). EVs and AVs are a chance for them to dip into that, and Tesla's most impressive innovation has been getting ahead of the curve on it.
I've been using distinct FF profiles to separate work browsing from personal browsing on the same machine. I give each profile a differently colored theme to visually separate the two and discourage accidentally using one profile for another's purpose.

The best book that I've read on order execution was "Algorithmic Trading and DMA". [0]

The book is kind of old now, but it was written by Barry Johnson, who worked at Morgan Stanley on their algo trading team.

The book is kind of dry, but very thorough and clear on its concepts. It reads more like a university text book than anything else. It just goes through concepts one by one, chapter by chapter.

I'm not sure of New Hampshire's stage agencies, but the most common problem I've experiences interacting with government agencies is PDFs. The format is fairly well-designed to be easy to read so many libre software alternatives can view PDFs, but forms are another story. If a PDF form hasn't been tested in libre readers, it would be unwise to assume that it works in libre readers (or even some proprietary readers). And if testing discovers that it doesn't work, getting it to work isn't necessarily possible with the PDF editing tools available, as making their editors compatible with libre readers isn't exactly a priority for Adobe.

Because Google does something, doesn't mean it's a good thing to do for anyone else. This kind of infrastructure is very expensive to maintain, and suffers from many flaws like -almost- everyone being stuck using SDKs that are several versions behind the latest production one even for the internal GCP ones.
I think is largely correct, I’ve been working remotely for the better part of 10 years. I used laptops for around 6. The portability is great when I was split between multiple jobs.

Changed to a desktop about 3 years ago and wouldn’t go back unless I really needed that portability again. I had forgotten how much faster a well spec’d desktop machine actually is. And upgrading parts I find a lot better than replacing the whole laptop every 2-3 years.

Currently on a Ryzen 5950x, 64gb ram, multiple gen 4 ssds, and a workstation GPU. The only laptops to beat such a setup in most tasks weigh a lot, cost more than double the desktop, and are 2 years newer.
Most of that information is readily available on the corporate intranet without having to dig through source code.

Security-by-obscurity isn't something to rely on (again, except in the case of things like abuse detection where there's no alternative).
It's a decent strategy until you realize you're just providing target practice on sorties the enemy would fly anyway. Shooting one missile a day is not affecting that budget. And pilots need constant training.
