I can also trust Marriott properties to be reasonably clean, have working door locks, no cameras in the room, and the ability to change your room if the one they offered was bad. They seem to dish out OK room upgrades for free when the hotel isn’t booked out too. I was just at a Marriott property and the room AC didn’t work. One call later and the AC worked when I got back to the room. Mind blowing things that Airbnb doesn’t offer.
Not to mention that the opposite is also true where a large number of "native" apps are really just wrapped up web apps and many suffer these same issues.
I never thought it was malice. I thought it was greed. They'd say whatever made the most money. People talk about news agencies trying to brainwash people to a particular world view, but I don't think that has some kind of left/right bias. It has a "most money" bias.
> does anyone actually believe these models will be right most of the time?

They’re already right most of the time for real world queries, especially compared to web search which these days almost never gives me what I’m looking for at the top of the results (and often even in the first query). People go out of their way to find failure points and then brag online about having outsmarted the AI as if anyone promised that this tech is infallible. It’s quite embarrassing, really.
I bought a totally stock boring crossover SUV new from the dealer in 2020 and I‘m sick of people constantly flashing their lights at me. Are my factory headlights illegal? It’s possible, but I doubt it. Is it illegal to flash your brights at someone when their own headlights are perfectly legal? I don’t know, but it’s certainly distracting and doesn’t seem safe in precisely the same way that excessively bright headlights are unsafe.
I think you may be confused. Conservatives are critical of the modern interpretation of the Commerce Clause because it expands the federal government's ability to regulate activity inside of states. (see the citation from the conservative Heritage Foundation below)

It would then be consistent for conservatives to avoid using the commerce clause to force another state to change their laws. But conservatives are happy to be ideologically inconsistent in the interest of giant corporations.

I bet the balloon and, more importantly, the payload would indeed faze it.
Yep. When I heard the description of this balloon I was sure it was a picoballoon. Having done balloon flights and dealt with the regulations and reporting etc. I can see how this hobby is going to get shut down for no good reason. Sucks.

Pretty much the missing word here is ... UNLICENSED.
How is it useful, if it requires such attention?
(OP) Correct. The first couple sentences stress this, the questions are just mini thought experiments. Not an assertion of anything. Have fun with them, don't belabor them. If all or none of the questions aren't your cup of tea, who cares.
Surely the vast majority of incubators fail? Running an incubator is high status so it attracts peacocks not busy beavers, plus it is an extremely difficult business to be successful at. The incubator in New Zealand that I had experience of was government funded, so that incubator also had perverse non-financial incentives.

I think this is a good development. I'd rather my "app" be chunk of wasm running in a browser window then have to deal with all the drama that comes with dealing with the various app stores. Its not a universal solution but it would work for a lot of apps. Most of the non-game apps seem to be just a web widget anyway.
UK has weird laws. Airborne operation of amateur radio is prohibited in the UK.

Yemen and NK ban amateur radio outright, with very few exceptions for things like DXpeditions or royalty.

No other countries specifically call out a prohibition of airborne amateur radio operation; either they explicitly allow it or they don't specify.

Yes! I went down the rackmount rathole about 20 years ago, and for 10 years all my computing equipment was installed in a 44u cabinet.

The problem is that rack mount plus low noise equals very high cost, if it is even achievable. Eventually I could not stand the noise anymore, and got rid of the rack. So did every single one of my colleagues who tried rackmount.

As others have mentioned rackmount equipment is also expesive, often ridiculously so. I am very happy to leave racks in the data center where they belong.
How is asking Bing about your own name "going out of [your] way to find failure points"?
And how does that change anything about my statements?

Yeah, they have QA. But for the problem they claim they’re solving (robotaxis) and speed of pushing stuff to customers (on the order of days) it vastly, vastly insufficient. And it lacks any safety lifecycle process regards - again, just look at the timelines. Even if you’re super efficient, you cannot possibly claim you can even such a basic things like proper change management (no, commit message isn’t that) or validation.
For proof of this just check these HN threads where many commenters think this balloon was a danger to commercial airliners. And this is a forum populated by nerds.
>Maybe poor people paying for an annual inspection is the affordability argument

The affordability argument is that shops have an incentive to sell work and they have an incentive to not draw the ire of some capricious regulator by passing questionable cars so they sell all sorts of work that doesn't strictly need to be done and over the life of a car this amounts to thousands mostly concentrated toward end of life at which point the car will be owned by someone least able to afford it.
Some low-power low-speed low-cost ethernet would also be very interesting for home automation. Thread/Zigbee just has 250kb/s and that is already enough. Cables offer more reliability and the possibility for low voltage dc power supply.
This article made me think about how many things we (as humanity and as individuals) have not experienced enough times to realize their patterns, and to start identifying them as things. Without being able to symbolically reason about them as things, we can't make them, we can't manipulate them, and we can't begin to understand them. The pattern-seeking brain is amazing, but also dauntingly limited.

This seems to relate to the myth of Magellan's invisible ships. We probably overlook a million things in our lives just like that.
I’m imagining Tom Cruise being serious and doing all sorts of crazy maneuvers to take down enemy hostile bogeys.
Because it's designed for a hot, metallic jet at 400knots, at several miles away. How radar reflective is latex or whatever rubber makes up these balloons? How hot is the payload? If you make the heat-seeking missile too willing to lock onto low grade heat sources, it might suddenly decide that a bird is a better target at the wrong time.

For radar guided munitions, the surface you are targeting needs to reflect enough of the radar energy for the seeker head to "see" it.

Also is the AIM-9X really only $400k? That's insane for the capabilities it has.
Yep. Lies are not the same thing as being dishonest.
You can use lies to be misleading, or manipulative, or dishonest but you don't need to, and it's usually more effective if you don't (or at least don't entirely).

If someone can't see how a person could be misleading without lying they're going to fall for a lot of bullshit.
Right, if you consider the internal state, it is hardly similar. You talked about black box and QA though. Black box by definition holds the internal state as irrelevant, and QA mostly treats the software it tests as a black box, or in other words the tests are "superficial" as you call it.
Yet at the same time that one of these persons has this ability and ends up working for the police is a low probability event, the police only tend to use said profiler if the event warrants the expense. When a service moves from human ran to technology ran it generally goes from "I need to do this special thing" to "We should just leave it on and do it all the time, the IT budget takes care of that".

Does this recall mean that FSD Beta won't be as widely & publicly available to anyone with FSD anymore?
Thanks. I see it for sale for £4 second hand, so maybe I should buy it for the novelty value alone. I presume I shouldn't try to refresh my java from it though.

Actually no.

I wonder if there’d be so many people eager to pay Tesla $$$ if it were marketed as “Worse Than Drunk Teenager Self Driving”.
ROI is a dumb metric for a medium which is effectively free. Just another example of ignoring externalities.

None. Marketing is an objective blight on human society.

got to feed the outrage machine. It would be great to start to educate around terminology in this space. What would it be fixed costs vs variable costs, so only count variable costs into the equation, something like that?
I think s***posting on Twitter is a huge undersatement, what Elon has done on Twitter is un-ban right-wing and hate speech people. He has made the world significatly more full of hate. That is not s***posting.

The citation on your post about Geely is a "data is based on supplier lists" so I think we can take it from a different perspective:

So what is worse imo? What are we weighing up here? Tesla vs Polestar. Elon making the world more full of hate vs Geely having suppliers on this list. If I had to pick one of those two, it would still easily be Polestar.

No, I do not think I will boycott Geely based on this, I will contact them and see if they can clear their act up. I hope Nintendo and Nike do too on that list. I cannot forgive or get over the damage Elon has done.
Regarding small research balloons: that has never been the case.

Even the NWS has a return rate of 20% for the radiosondes they attach to weather balloons.

Not saying a rules change can't be considered, but the current rules are "n'ah." No more than people are expected to retrieve their plain-old helium balloons from birthday parties (and we know those do ecological damage).
Isn't 40mph a regulatory limit?

Do you have any information that it'll continue to be 40mph even where not required to be?

I wouldn't be surprised in the answer is yes, but I've been paying attention and haven't come across any yet.
Have you met my cousin Barry? He does pretty much the same thing, though in a less formal way.

Barry is still sentient and can perform quite a few tasks quite admirably. I still wouldn't use him as a sole source reference for obscure facts however.

(I don't actually have a cousin Barry, this is for illustration).
You're right, this is unfair to Bing AI. It hasn't actually harmed anyone yet, despite its threats.
(OP) Never considered the "do you have questions for us"... thats an interesting thought.
That's not really feasible. Transponders require relatively huge power sources - 70-125 watts of RF output. The battery needed to support that for a usable length of time would be far too heavy.

However, they often do have passive radar reflectors.
It is a dumb question, but that's the best kind.

"could kill you if gone wrong" is nearly every choice in life. The relevant metric is risk of death or other bad outcomes.

Flying in a commercial airliner could kill you if things go wrong. Turns out it's safer than driving the same distance.

Eating food could kill you if things go wrong (severe allergy, choking, poisoning) yet it's far preferable to not eating food.

Similarly, Tesla's ADAS could kill you if things go wrong but the accident rate (as of 2022) is 8x lower than the average car on the road, and 2.5x lower than a Tesla without ADAS engaged.

Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

Smack someone with a goose, then smack them with a Mylar balloon. Compare the results.

You don't want to routinely ingest gravel from a dirt runway (nor balloons!) into your engines. Having one pebble kick up off the runway won't cause an issue.
That doesn’t hold - the central bank could loan all the cash (really we mean reserves) it wants and the bank still be unable to make a loan. Because the bank cannot break its capital requirements and the central bank can do nothing to help that situation.

Similarly the central bank could loan nothing and the commerical bank could loan millions.
misleading and misinforming are often used to persuade, but it doesn't always require it.
Nevermind that the training value of firing a live AIM-9X at a live but odd target is probably worth more than $400k on it's own.
Hosts often also get the short end of the stick, and get the similarly non-existent recourse opportunities. The issue is not with either - it's the way AirBnB does its business. Hotels began to seem attractive again also because vacationers don't want to risk their precious time and money. Hotels at least have experience, and the regulators up their ass.

From reading the article, it looks like the hard work was done by Afghan researcher working for Afghan think tank.

IMHO, true, LLMs have gotten quite a bit of hype since ChatGPT came out, however I wouldn't say they have no legitimate use cases.

Personally, I've been able to use them to summarize / rewrite various topics that I am interested in finding out more about but don't want to go to 6-10 different sources to find out more about.

So I think they can at least take away some of the drudgery in doing research / summarization work.
I think recall is just fine. Recall offers no ambiguity in my mind. It means the manufacturer fucked something up, big time. Everything else is just details.

In the current world of forced updates (looking at you Android), the word "update" itself is kind of toxic, and doesn't (and I would argue cant) represent what has happened here, even if its technically more correct.
I've had multiple co workers over the years throw up their hands in frustration and tell me to just. buy. the damn thing! I tend to do an unhealthy amount of analysis over every car or gadget I purchase.

"The word lie, requires an intent to deceive."

This isn't being debated.

"There is concept called a "lie of omission"."

And that's why it's a concept and requires additional words to convey. It's not included by default. This would moee generally fall under deception.

I'll ask again, anything to add to the actual discussion?

Here's an example from this week:

https://doomberg.substack.com/p/railroaded

"Even though this, and all information quoted in this piece, is readily available to any reporter with access to Google, countless references to the dangers presented by phosgene are giving the public anxiety over the decision to execute the controlled burn. To pick one example from many dozens, a Newsweek story, titled Did Control Burn of Toxic Chemicals Make Ohio Train Derailment Worse?, includes the following sentence: “Phosgene is a deadly gas that was used in chemical warfare during World War I.” The report goes on to quote – and we kid you not – a TikTok video from an “entrepreneur” for more insight.

Sigh."
One of the things that make bike culture stick is that most bikes are just really cheap those places. On one hand this means they're protected relatively less and so would be rather easy to pick up, on the other it means no one bothers organising a theft ring as the returns are too low. Fancy bikes are something completely different and would attract another level of organised crime.

That's the same for other manufacturers. It's called a recall in legal terms, in the sense that the original product as used is not safe and needs to be changed. The changing can luckily be done OTA instead of driving to a service center to plug it in first.

I can't recommend enough putting your bikes on your renters or homeowners insurance. There is no lock that is cut proof, and even if there was, your components can just get stripped or the rack itself even could be cut. If you have insurance, however, its not even a couple bucks a month extra on my policy to get the bike on there for zero deductible coverage, and offers me a lot of piece of mind.

It's not hard to find a dead endangered tortoise in the Mojave Desert because of people in Los Angeles letting their mylar Happy Birthday balloons float away.

It's usually on purpose, because they can't think of anything farther than the end of their noses.

I have noticed, however, in some other parts of the country and the world (Australia), that people have started to realize that they are polluting in ways they didn't think of before.

Specifically want to target people who bought baby stuff, or went to a pediatrician etc. Considered approaching local paediatricians to cross-promote.

The ideal would be if there are public records of births in the local hospitals, do those exist? Then one could look who was born 2 years ago and send a mailer to the address listed (by name) or call the number listed (in some phonebook) for those who opted in.

Any baby registries on Amazon or something publicly accessible?

Zantac (ranitidine) is an H2 blocker, not a PPI.
Even it the chatbot improves, I imagine many folks are waiting for the point where they have some direct control of its training / fine tuning that is easy and accessible. You can correct it, but why waste time doing that if it won’t remember next time? Issues like, e.g. if you have NDAs, are you breaking them by disclosing information with a chatbot? There’s little clarity in regards to those issues, and you can’t just take someone’s word for it. Ideally you’d want control of the chatbot’s learning process and how it handles all kinds of (sensitive?) data.
> paying a mechanic the better half of a thousand dollars to get the check engine light to go away (for the same issue) each time. The whole thing is an utter scam that only the poor people deal with.

And a hell of a lot of people as well as the entire insurance industry want to economically incentivize those people to stop driving (for both good and bad reasons) so they're on the same side. Every dealer and manufacturer wants to sell cars so they'll also be on that side.
Okay I’m really glad I asked because I did not know about that feature at all, and it does the job even if in an awkward way (adding a second PWA creates a third page when the second one is hidden). The PWA I was using to test iOS/PWA interactions now shows up in the App Library and Spotlight among the app results.

It’s not great, but as compromises go this one is basically reasonable, though Apple should still just let me dump them straight to the App Library. Thanks!
