I haven't seen from it much different than a repetition of what you can get on pretty much any loosely moderated forum (maybe not on HN, but on many places with lower standards). Compared to a random teenager that can send the police to attempt to murder you in your own home, some assholery from an AI bot is not that worrying. And we still don't have any solution for the former problem, afaik.
So yeah, unability to make Internet-trained AI that is not an asshole is kinda sad, and worrying, both in technological aspect and the societal one. But I am not sure it deserves "extremely dangerous" yet, at least not until somebody has a bright idea to hook up this contraption to some dangerous effectors, but I hope nobody is that crazy.
Akamai has a scraper filter (I think it just rate limits scrapers out of the box but can be configured to block if you want).
I'm not sure how good it is at detecting what is a scraper and what isn't though.

My solution is to only solve problems that are embarrassingly parallel, like graphics (one pixel = one thread) or physics simulations (one object = one thread), and escape the pain of synchronisation.
That could mean it is a necessary but not sufficient condition; I don't think your observation by itself invalidates anything the author said.
In the past 10 or so years, a combinatoric approach to particle interactions has shown surprisingly good results. Simple algebraic calculations have been able to give answers that requires hundreds of pages of math through the feynman diagram approach.

This is the amplituhedron, led by Nima Arkani-Hamed, here's an article also by quanta magazine about it

https://www.quantamagazine.org/physicists-discover-geometry-...

In addition to giving exact simple calculations to particle scattering amplitudes, the most important aspect is that it does so in a way that does not require notions of space or time. Leading to the notion that there are more fundamental aspects to reality and space and time may be emergent phenomena.

Can you define happiness in this context?

I'm more of the mind that happiness is better as a side effect of a good life than the sole pursuit of your life. People who chase happiness as their primary meaning to exist usually are not very interesting and highly materialistic.
Conversely, I work very little at home. Probably like 4-6 hours/day max, sometimes more like 2-4. When I used to go to the office it was a solid 8+ (sometimes 10+). At home I can go play video games whenever I want, my kids are around to play with after school gets out, etc.
I wish there was a language "between" assembly and C: basically assembly with some quality-of-life improvements.

Shortcuts to reduce redundant chores (like those multiple instructions to load one 64-bit number into an ARM register) but minimal "magic" or unintended consequences as in C. Things like maybe a function call syntax like:

CALL someFunc(R1: thingForRegister1, @R7: pushR7ThenPopOnReturn, R42: [memoryAddressForR42])

and the function might be defined as:

someFunc(R1 as localNameForR1, R7 as oneMoreThing, R42? as optionalArgument)

and so on. (but anyone could come up with better ideas than me)

This article [1], linked from original article, looks at the effects of direct instruction and mastery learning across various studies.

You've convinced me to go for it. I'm downloading the models from HuggingFace and the source from Github.

I'm not sure how it all fits together but I'll try to figure it out. I have experience with Python development, git LFS, and I've been following research papers for years but this is my first attempt.

Is this all self-contained? Should I start elsewhere? I've been pretty intimidated by this stuff TBH, relying on hosted Midjourney / Dall-E for my artwork.

I notice the two repos have the same name. Do I merge the file-trees? How do they work together?

The theory is that explosives on NS1 were detonated because the failure of NS2 would have triggered an inspection of NS1 that would have revealed the previously planted explosives.
The only progress I would say is more and more people realising it's a waste of time. Why should we expect reality on a scale very different to everyday experience to behave like everyday experience?

Or any of the Rockhip 3588 boards. Better CPU, better PCIe, some have dual 2.5gbe, 4, 8 or 16gb ram, etc. I got the NanoPi R6s.

Seems silly to save $25 on the slower CPU and half the ram.
Does that make me the mean me? Am I the most mediocre of me's? Or does this mean I'm the best me? Is everyones reality discreet to themselves? Or is this the sum of all possible observable realities by everyone?

If it's remarkable you're easily impressed or you don't know about its shortcomings.

Likely it'll remain an engine for parlor tricks and infinite "demos" for foreseeable future, the many critical mistakes it makes make it impractical (you can't trust any information it outputs without verifying yourself it's not a hallucination again).

You're making it sound as if it's something comparable to the development of the Internet in its impact.
I don't think you can blame American media. Canada can trace its usage of Imperial units to the British Empire. The United States of America as an independent nation has never at any point in its history used Imperial units. US Customary units share some of the names but it is a different system. This refinement of units continued globally and with international collaboration became the metric (si) system. The US historically had closer ties to France than Britain so the systems diverged literally centuries ago.

Canadian metrication follows the rest of the British empire which was centuries behind the rest of the world (including the US) in metrication.

> I thought high-speed chases were often about getting a dangerous driver off the road.

It isn't though, at least here in Germany. Criminals routinely 'bomb' (for the lack of a better word) ATMs here in Germany, and speed off in Sportscars over the border so that the police can't catch up in time. I think the idea of firing GPS modules on their vehicles might be a genius idea, because the authorities clearly can't catch up in time.

This is a daily occurrence, and it seems like police forces have no power over it.
I would disagree on the whole. I assume most stories – film, video games, television, comics, literature, etc. – end with the protagonist victorious in some way. I care more about the journey, and Superman stories take me on enjoyable (and many times, emotional) journey's for the most part.
Dunno, got some numbers to back that up?

So far I'm pretty impressed with my Rk3588 board, 8gb ram, and dual 2.5gbe.

It's a bit more than half as fast as my quad core/8 thread xeon desktop, but that's abotu where I'd expect one of the cheaper x86 NUC/Mini PC/Thin clients to land.

Well, because as he said, they so far confirm to have found explosive residue at one site, and not the other. And, as stated, there was suspicious activity of a ship directly over the site for a week prior to the attack, where explosive residues have been confirmed, and not over the other site.
That's more about Copenaghen vs Many Worlds vs Pilot Wave...

The infinite path integral is heavy mathematical machinery so it's avoided if possible.
Does it make sense to include a cooling term in that comparison?
I see a baby flying out of the bathtub here.

You can still use NextJS - just get it to prerender the entire site statically. Then you get the plus sides of using NextJS, but can take your static ZIP file of files to any host you like, or self host.

You then get, for example, an HTML file, with all the elements ready on page load, which can be 'rehydrated' when React kicks in for deep functionality and interactivity.

Objectively I have no objections with tests on human subjects, humans are just another animal in the animal kingdom and just another living being like any other living being.

The only difference, if we can call it that because it's superficial, stems from human biases where humans are "one of us" whereas other species are "not us". That's it. From an objective perspective of living being, there is no difference between humans and other species including singular cell organisms.
Rust has an obvious audience: programmers who have somehow been lulled into accepting an insane language and language features: namely C++ people.

One question is did the operator do anything after Germany suspended the certification on September 22. Like decreasing pressure or increasing pressure. Those seem unlikely to cause leak but would explain the timing.

We also don’t know anything about the leaks. It should be obvious to investigators if Nord Stream 2 was not an explosion.

And what are you doing, but vigorous handwaving about how it is actually possible? Make a working version of it, or point to someone making it work. So far it is nothing but a paper concept. Again, no one is saying it is impossible. It is merely incredibly implausible and won't happen.

You can pretty much pick an arbitrary timeframe on this. If you want 30 years, I'll give 30 years. It won't happen in that timeframe.
It is still a legal void.

Can an extraterrestrial have legal representation? or represent themselves? If you are not a person you cannot participate in contracts or sign legal documents. It is a complete mess of a situation if you think about it.

And there may be also legal definitions that would have to be revised.

For example, if you enter US territory from space, you technically did not cross any borders, you simply entered American airspace without crossing a border.

If what's penalized is crossing a border, there would be no crime there.
> the photon I shine on my wall with a flashlight did a few orbits around Jupiter too

This is a very confusing way to essentially say that an integral of exp(−iS) is taken over all possible paths for the action S. Your flashlight's photons don't literally do a few orbits around Jupiter. In fact, photons are quantum objects (not billiard balls) and they are "smoothed out" over spacetime, meaning they don't really have paths to take in the first place.
> laws cannot apply retroactively

In some jurisdictions they certainly can. Even in places which apparently don't allow this, remember we've all got recent experience of how rapidly existing rules and frameworks can be changed if/when the situation demands[0].

Wow I was literally thinking about this idea yesterday.

It’s a great idea I hope it catches on.
Compiler and linker flags are so annoying that people built tools to make developers lives easier. They aren’t amazing tools, but they get the job done. In this case, you would run `pkg-config -cflags libfoo` and `pkg-config -libs libfoo` and use the results when you invoke the compiler and linker.
He did mention dynamic DNS, but that’s really only ok (in the US at least) if you’re willing to to be down did a few minutes every day, and as long as you get hardly any traffic. Even with your 300 (100)mbps fiber connection, you’ll only get 5-10mbps upload, and only if you have virtually no incoming traffic. It’s (barely) ok for zoom or counterstrike, but you’ll be blocked for hosting a web server.
The days of being able to self host are long gone.
Can you explain how an AI-generated fake ID for a fake social media account constitutes a felony? On what grounds exactly? Facebook despite attempting to normalize the handing over of government-issued identification to an advertising platform, is not a government entity.
The chance is never zero, but it can be effectively zero. And the way we communicate this fact is through inexact language. It's never zero in the same way that you ever having a chance to live on the moon in your lifetime is never zero.

The path integral formulation is possibly the most local theory you could come up with - it's incredibly simple and does not require any nonlocal effects! The relativistic lagrangian is even more elegant than the classical one - it's just mass! What kind of theory would be more intuitive and straightforward?
I believe it makes business loans easier to get.

> Here in the UK I think it became all out screw people over when Margret Thatcher and the City of London had their 1980's yuppie boom.

The one constant in all of it is the dehumanizing and scapegoating of the hated "others". It's not a new thing either, it's been pretty well documented from our earliest history. I would have thought The United Kingdom has a long tradition of doing just that, stretching way back before 1980, before the industrial revolution, even before feudalism.
Disregarding differences in NG price between utilities and households, I see different numbers than that. 60% efficient NG turbines, onto a 85% grid, and a 2.6 COP at home means no NG furnace can compete until the weather hits winter lows. I don’t see how it can make it worse.

Not mentioned in article, it also explains why the NS1 was blown up 17 hours later than NS2. Would expect coordinated attack to occur simultaneously.

Also, it explains why NS2 leak was distance from NS1. If coordinated attack, would expect one ship to lay explosives on both pipelines close together.
It’s not clear to me that it necessarily is, if those annotations provide a false feeling of security. C-rusted doesn’t seem to have a real story for preserving invariants in linked-in but not locally compiled code, which is the main thing that makes C a valuable ecosystem.
The objective test for whether Lisp metaprogramming contributes to or detracts from the readability of a codebase is to take a sample of the code base and expand the macros, to see whether that is more or less readable.
We, humans, are limited in our understanding of the worlds by what we can perceive and conceive. What does it means to understand how a system really behave when we are so limited? That’s an interesting metaphysical question but we have left the realm of sciences by asking it. Sciences care about what can be experienced.

The aim of sciences is to accurately predict the results of experiments. A model doesn’t have to be simple or intuitive, just accurate.

Obviously everyone would like a simpler model predicting the same things but not because it would be more real, just because simpler is nicer.
It should be noted that the Flipper Zero is acting as a 14hz signal generator in the circuit in question.

Open only the minimum ports that you need (eg. only 80 & 443 for a web server). Run simple software (eg. nginx) and keep it up to date. Minimise the impact of searching bots (eg. fail2ban). Avoid running scripts (eg. take care with php). And your server will be more secure than your modem (touch wood)!
Note: IANAL

Remember, there is an annual cost associated with forming and maintaining a legal entity. In some states, this could be close to $1k per year, not including additional tax preparation costs.
This is a phenomenal answer, thanks for taking the time! Many more variables in the equation than I initially considered, thanks for all the points.
Can you "proxy proxy?"

My setup has nginx config files for each of the subdomains, each of which does a proxy_pass to some port for whatever the service is. Then my server box hosts like 20 different services, all of which right now I just point to from google domains using dynamic dns.

So instead I would have requests go to... what, an nginx I host on cloudflare?

This!

99% of modern physics was developed for pen & paper mathematics, not numeric simulations. Even when computers became readily available it was seen as somehow "less than" symbolic solutions. More practically, special-case solutions that were tractable symbolically require far too much computer power if approached from a fully general "local" simulation perspective.

QED is essentially a Monte Carlo simulation, just like ray tracing in computer graphics. The difference is that QED will correctly model diffraction (and other more complex physical effects) that the simplified graphics-only model doesn't bother with.

Both QED and raytraced computer graphics rely on a mathematical dualism where a wavefront can be tracked either as a surface OR as a vector perpendicular to the wavefront. The whole "summing up but mostly cancelling" is just accounting for the wavefronts. The use of complex numbers is mostly also just a method for tracking the cyclic nature of wavefronts.

If you skip the "waves" part, it becomes traditional computer graphics. Less accurate, but essentially the same.

Computer graphics could also simulate light transport by using a 3D volume, which is roughly speaking how some diffuse light simulations work in real-time games like the Unreal engine. The problem is that to get decent accuracy, you need a lot of memory to store that 3D volume. For low-resolution scene lighting this is fine.

Monte Carlo enables a solution to be built up incrementally with much less memory required, needing only a 2D accumulator in the image plane instead of a 3D simulation in object space. This allows a vastly more complex and detailed simulation to be calculated, which is important for the tiny wavelength of physical light instead of some non-diffracting idealisation of it.

For a physics problem the memory requirements of any non-trivial system would be gigantic, that's why everyone just ignores this approach even though it makes a lot more intuitive sense.
