Yes I'm your target audience. Already visit zero waste/BYO container stores in NYC.

My concern would be where I'd store all the containers you give me after they're empty. Small apartment (surprise).

Another would be if I break or lose the containers, what the price to replace them would be.

Would the containers be delivered in reusable bags? Paper bags?

Also your prices need to compete with Whole Foods, Instacart, etc. Sounds difficult, I wish you luck.
Right, all we need to do to solve AI is ensure that we pick the right personality to uplift (and perhaps ensure that it has a tabula rasa in a different light cone in which to stay busy).

(I love the story too but I don’t think it has any merit in AI safety discussions. It doesn’t illuminate anything that was previously unclear; unlike the OP, which illustrates a plausible scenario many have not grokked yet.)
Are there any rack mount cases with 6-8 (3.5") hard drive slots that are under $100?
There's too many practical drawbacks. For example you have to send the OTP without getting it intercepted. How do you do that? It also has to be truly random. You can't pick a page from a book or anything, that undermines the whole model and makes cryptanalysis possible.

It's useful but only in very specific cases. Mostly it's just a paradigm in cryptography.

Note that for all its fame as unbreakable it does lack perfect forward secrecy so anyone getting a hold of it from any of the participants can read their intercepts from all the way back.
Reactionary is a term commonly used by communists to described enemies of a revolution, interesting choice of language.

I understand that you feel he is getting rich but do you have knowledge of his personal finances to make this assertion? Or even some sort of a basis for this intuition you can point people towards? Please enlighten me with some napkin math.

Meanwhile, the slacks and emails he posted are certainly real.

As opposed to journalists who don't need eyeballs to justify their existence?
Yeah, I'm a fan of the ethos, although pretty far behind on the implementation.

One article I really like from that blog is this one:
https://www.mrmoneymustache.com/2015/08/19/urban-tribe/

It's more than a little bit counter to the idea of "fucking off from society to the woods", though. Still, a man can dream of total independence :)
Your phone can.

Beyond that, you may be surprised how many people would wake you up for your stop. Especially in US Commuter Rail systems people tend to follow similar habits and get to know each other over the years. Even on a normal city bus I quickly (months) got used to the pattern of the same people getting on and off at their various stops. If you’re asleep at your stop someone can usually nudge you
Shortbets five years.

Even LLM weaknesses are just snafus. We've already "replaced" or made inroads at automating the jobs of artists, voice actors, copy editors, Go/chess/video game players, and more. I'm failing to communicate the breadth here.

Real actors, singers, manufacturing jobs, software developers, and a whole host of other types of tasks are shortly to come. As capital plunges in, there will be rapid maturation.

Each of these advances shows a comprehensive understanding of the complexity and nature of the task AI is applied to. If we keep piling these victories on, we'll have an approach for agency and consciousness in short order. Everyone is trying to solve this now, and we've made so much progress.

The pace of innovation is staggering and should shake the foundations of the models through which you understand and predict the world and the future. We're looking at a fundamentally different set of possible outcomes for 2030. It's almost impossible to predict, as our entire economic system may lurch forward in a next "industrial revolution".
Tesla as far as I know didn't publish a definition of the standard and the protocol. Without that I don't know how other manufactures would adopt it.

A comprehensive approach would have been to create a standard for the charger, plus open source implementation of both the car and the charger software, including the software for automated payment. Also libraries for phones abs to integrate (or for others to integrate with the Tesla app).

Establish a conference for charger testing, these exist for the CCS standard. Maybe even a certification program.

They could have made home charger and the destination charger just work with any cars. And then made deals with specific auto makers for access to Superchargers. Or have program where they allow access at extra cost.

> Perhaps they were worried about the quality and safety of others producing a subpar equivalent/variant that might have led to incidents that tarnish Tesla's name and reputation?

Maybe.

If you want my opinion. Its simply not how Musk thinks, thinking in terms of Open Standards and Open Source or even Partnerships just isn't an Musk thing Musk does. And everybody else is to busy doing what Musk wants to do. I think it one of the biggest weaknesses in Musk

Maintaining a standard, having open software and partners and so on, is management effort Tesla just isn't interested in it seems to me.
I'd recommend taking a discovery flight at your local flight school. They're fairly affordable (they're a loss-leader to get boots through the door), and they're a lot of fun. Most of all though, they familiarize you with the sensation of flight and the myriad safety features of modern aviation. May not be able to book a discovery flight before your short commercial flight, but it's something to think about for the long term.
I still can't believe FSD Beta was allowed on public roads. I've had it since day 1, and oh my god. It behaves worse than a drunk teenager. All the updates since, have made it barely better. This needs to be pulled entirely and rethought.

There’s a few. I use one called Transit
To be fair you only really need to know the commands to invoke which are similar to brew as far as what they do, and not the underlying nix expression language which is where things get difficult. Unless you intend to go full power user and add your own overrides, in which case might not be worth it.
Some car models even have dimming side mirrors these days!

...though, come to think of it, maybe the fact that manufacturers keep inventing new ways to combat extra bright lights is a sign that the problem is worsening.
The majority of BIOSes support NTFS. Incredibly enough more BIOSes support NTFS than they do exFAT.

(Yet another example of the unfairness of the playing field for non-MS OSes).
This would be a nice rebuttal save for the fact that universally, they are operating under the same incentives where arbitration is cheaper than courts. You're making an argument that the number of companies somehow implies a diversity of behavior. Sorry, I wish it were true, but it isn't backed by fact, logic, economics 101, or even reality.
Maybe fruitless is a good thing in this case

Scary stuff! Thanks for the story.
It was a freak of nature driven by climate change. And the -30 did generalize across New England from mass to Maine at least.
When arguing about societal/legal/political things that have anything to do with location, people frequently imply that there is no friction to picking where you live or moving. As if people are born into the world as adults and the first thing they do is pick from a list of every available home in the country in their price range, with infinite time and information to make their choice, and then they and their job and family and friends and possessions are all teleported there. And they can do this again as often as they want at any point. It's frankly nuts. "Uncharitable" and "oversimplified" are not really strong enough words for how dramatic the fallacy of "just live somewhere else" is.
Meanwhile, the only actual L3 capable car is a Mercedes. Plenty of people will argue that AP is actually superior, but I don't think there's any way to say that for sure, given the tight constraints Mercedes has put on their driver assistance in order to lower the liability enough to make L3 not a bankruptcy event. For certain, however, they are more confident in their technology than Tesla is, otherwise Tesla would release an L3 capable car too.

To be fair, though, Tesla has no sensors other than cameras, and I believe the Mercedes has a half dozen or so, several radars and even a lidar.
Google define lie:

"all their married life she had been living a lie"

Google "define lying". It says this:

tell a lie or lies.

and this

(of a thing) present a false impression; be deceptive.

Intentionally misleading is deceptive, even if it states only facts.
In a few more years, security will simply cease to exist entirely.
Some problems are harder to solve than others. It usually stems from a long testing period. Try X, wait. Try Y, wait. If the wait period is decades, you have a problem.

Broadly, statistics and large sample sets are used to combat that.

Human understanding, or lack thereof, for a given problem also contributes to suboptimal theories.

Ultimately, hard problems are hard.
Those are your numbers, you said GBP 0.26 per day vs GBP 0.19 per day. You didn't show your math on residual value/etc so there's no way for me to go deeper than that, I'm just taking your numbers at face value.
How does a recall work when the feature that's at fault is software and the platform is able to be updated over the air? I can see pushing a feature flag to disable full self-driving until a service pack comes through... or does one need to actually take their car to a Tesla dealer or can you just connect via WiFi (or wired internet?) while the car is parked?
I met the owners of a store like this in the Bay Area. Their backyard is filled with left over plastic containers because they’re embarrassed to be seen taking anything to the dump.

Interesting, so they're using PWM to hold the headlights at constant brightness when the alternator runs. Wiring a capacitor in parallel with the headlights should fix that.
You're thinking of a particular type of startup here. Most startups don't involve VCs, for instance.

But you're right, there is a period where the founder makes little to nothing from the startup. You need to be able to weather that. And, if you're betting on the startup making you an instant millionaire, you're betting on the wrong horse. I mean, it can happen, but it's not the most likely result. The most likely result is that it will fail, and you'll have to try again with a different startup.

The difference between successful founders and unsuccessful ones is the unsuccessful ones gave up. The successful ones almost always have a string of failures before the one that succeeded.

That said, starting your own company can be much more profitable in the long run than working for someone else. And more fulfilling.

But it's certainly not a path for everyone.
I like recommendation engine better. Also up to 5 people in family plan.
Would it have been an ideal world would have been where there were Ford gas stations, GM gas stations, Chrysler gas stations, Toyota gas stations, Honda gas stations, Suzuki gas stations, Nissan gas stations, AMC gas stations, Studebaker gas stations, Plymouth gas stations, Mercury gas stations, Pontiac gas stations, etc. and none of these would have been interchangeable? We'd just have a dozen different gas stations all right next to each other all over the place, because each one wants to have their own competitive edge against the others for "the best" fueling infrastructure. Every time an auto manufacturing company got merged or went defunct, we'd just close down all those old legacy gas stations and any drivers of those would just be SOL.

To me that sounds like a nightmare, but I guess to each their own.
Maybe they should bring back "20% time"? That's sort of the whole idea of doing that, to encourage people to experiment and innovate.
Translation: If you gamble that the Fed will raise rates and get it wrong, you lose more than if you wrongly gamble that they will not.
This is exactly what happened to me last year. I used to be pretty frugal. Rarely replaced computers or other consumer electronics. Then I ended up buying a mid range sound bar. A very good oled TV. And a graphics card. Really stupid. It cost me more than mone, it was all the time researching, reading endless reviews. Configuring it all.
The other atom is not in the 'opposite state' for all properties, rather it has one property which is entangled so whatever accuracy you just measured, you know to the same accuracy of the other in the entangled property only.

Also 40 bits in superposition can represent 2^40 possibilities.

The "still" is what surprises me. Back in 2016 or 2017, I was excited. Musk still seemed like a pretty stable person back then and Tesla had basically executed on its promises and Musk said that by the end of 2017 you'd be able to drive from NY to LA without a single touch on the wheel. Everyone had said that EVs were doomed and Tesla really showed otherwise. Why not believe him? I like being hopeful about the future.

At this point, it's looking pretty far off, especially for Tesla. Even Cruise and Waymo are having issues and they have far better sensors than Teslas. It seems silly to be paying $15,000 for something that realistically might not happen during my ownership of the vehicle.

Even if it does happen, I can purchase it later. Sure, it's cheaper to purchase with the car because Tesla wants the money now. However, I'd rather hedge my bets and with investment gains on that $15,000 it might not really cost more if it actually works in the future. 5 years at 9% becomes $23,000 and I don't think Tesla will be charging more than $25,000 for the feature as an upgrade (though I could be wrong). If we're talking 10 years, that $15,000 grows to $35,500 and I can potentially buy a new car with that money.

Plus, there's the genuine possibility that the hardware simply won't support full self driving ever. Cruise and Waymo are both betting that better sensors will be needed than what Tesla has. Never mind the sensors, increased processing power in the future might be important. If current Teslas don't have the sensors or hardware ultimately needed, one has paid $15,000 for something that won't happen. Maybe we will have self driving vehicles and the current Teslas simply won't be able to do that even if you paid the $15,000.

It just seems like a purchase that isn't prudent at this point in time. The excitement has worn off and full self driving doesn't seem imminent. Maybe it will be here in a decade, but it seems to make a lot more sense to save that $15,000 (and let it grow) waiting for it to be a reality than paying for it today.
GenAug: Retargeting behaviors to unseen situations via Generative Augmentation

I've read this story a couple of times today, from a couple of different sources. What I can't find anywhere is any substantial information around what they're being 'warned' against.

What are the SRA threatening here with their 'warnings'? "Do not act as hired guns... or else!!?"

Or else what?
I searched for beef, went through the list of results trying to find a recipe. I eventually got a link to a scanned google book called “Biscuits and Dried Beef, a Panacea” but then I started reading it and the first page had a quote from poetry. “Cool, these 1800 cookbooks were so well read”, but then as I continued it turned out to be a pleasant fictional work on the life of a poor young Episcopalian Priest with a young family. Nice find but seems like there’s a lot of noise in this.

They have two accounts on that service, and have uploaded firmware, but the one article I can find (Phoronix) indicates in 2020 it was only for a single board. Would indeed be nice if they'd expand that out to more boards.
I have an Raspberry Pi 3 with an attached Enviro+ from Pimoroni with the PMS5003 Particulate Matter Sensor. I am about 60 miles South/SouthEast and I have been curious if my device would pick anything up from it. I don't have it outside, but in my basement in my office of a 1953 built home. I am personally more concerned about the water though. We draw our water from a lake as the local reservoir. I never really dug into getting the readings and posting them somewhere for this device/sensors.
Ha, my new Model 3 phantom braked the first time on the trip home from the service center, which was only 10 miles. I doubt it had even gone over 10 miles on the odometer at that moment.
Do you have the latest beta?

How did it improve in the last 12 months?
The Fed's reasons for existing have nothing to do with making money, nor with having assets (bond holdings) that exceed its liabilities (monetary obligations). Profits and positive equity are not even goals of the Fed. If you read the Fed board minutes, you'll find that board members don't even discuss profits.

The Fed's actual goals are: (1) to maximize employment as much as possible, while (2) keeping prices reasonably stable (i.e., not rising too much each year), and (3) promoting the stability of the financial system as much as possible.

If they conclude that they have to raise rates much higher and continue to withdraw liquidity from financial markets to bring inflation under control, they will do it -- even if it means inflicting a painful recession.
How’s the accuracy?
How does it all work?
> My point is that you do not know how the editorial workflow works.

I think you have it the other way around. The bias is institutionalized so deeply that the process makes it essentially impossible to get a non curated with bias point of view out of the organization.

Look at how tightly political leanings are tied to news outlets.

If it were as easy and objective as you say we would get a lot more random pieces out of outlets instead of the rather rigid ideological publications we see in existence today.

Even Reddit subs and hacker news, which are much more random than news outlets, have pretty clear political leanings. With sufficient samples you can even break down the subgroups within the community.

News orgs don't have nearly the internal diversity required to possibly remove such bias. They are homogenous.
Bingo. This has made me spend a lot less time on Youtube because recommended content and search are worse for me. If I'm searching for a marine biology video I don't want to see recommendations for clickbait influencers 3 results in. I used to go down random rabbit holes when I found related interesting content, but now that just doesn't happen very much anymore.
Well given that Youtube gets its money from making the user experience terrible via ad bombardment... that sounds like a good thing?

They'd get more revenue by breaking things like uBlock origin being able to completely remove all ads. Not something we really want them to do I think.
We've definitely got some test suites that slow us down, but...

...those suites would not pass review elsewhere in the codebase. Near as I can tell, most of the time that it's the case "our tests slow us down" is because the test code isn't held to the same standard (ie, the standards are massively relaxed)

That all said, what I actually want to ask -

In my head, having a good test suite - particularly a BDD-style one, like Cucumber tests - mean that it's easy to add tests to cover things uncovered from manual QA.

Have you found that to be the case? Or, have you found that it could be the case, if the test suites were different in some way?

> 80/20 [and not 100%]

Totes. I'm actually surprised that I've been able to hot 100%; lately it's been like 95% after I bang out the obvious tests, and then there's like one branch that's missing and it's easy to add. If/when it's hard to get that last 10%, totes agree - don't.
Thanks for your questions!

JinbuPal is a tool for anyone from complete beginners all the way up to higher level speakers. Regarding grammar, characters which have grammatical usages have links in their respective cards which send users to articles on external grammar resources. As a learner, you can choose to study whatever you want, whenever you want based on your curiosity or how much time you have on a given day of study. You can apply grammar filters in the app to hone your focus on studying only grammatically used characters or filter them away for days when you don’t have the time or patience to learn about grammar.

What makes JinbuPal unique is the ability to see your percentage recognition grow in real time as you complete characters and words in the app. Not only that, but you can then use the JinbuPal Chrome Extension to boost your confidence by visually seeing what you already know from authentic content. Additionally, the side-by-side card layout gets you in the habit of scanning left to right as you test your knowledge, making for a more natural transition from memorization to natural reading than you would get from using traditional flashcards.

Also, traditional flashcard apps (Anki included) by default emphasize a Pass/Fail method with regard to assessing how well you remember all aspects of a character simultaneously (Pinyin, Tone, & Meaning). We believe that allowing for independently tracking these aspects helps you feel more confident as a beginner since you can track more characters as “learned”, even if you aren’t yet very confident with the tone. We believe it’s important to understand that fully grasping tones and remembering them correctly often takes far more repetition than learning new pinyin pronunciations and meanings. We’d much rather encourage beginners to start by learning 2x-3x times the number of characters with inaccurate tones than only 1x but with perfect tones. The reason being, the more you can recognize in a short time, the more confidence you feel about being able to approach real content you enjoy and the more likely your confidence will foster long term study. As learners progress, they can easily go back and shore up areas of weakness because what they know and don’t know is tracked accordingly.
