AFAIK this is the proof that engineering has figured it out to have real stellarator fusion energy become a reality. Stuff works. It can keep plasma going for minutes as you wish. Now its the task of scaling I guess?

I have hope that fusion energy is indeed only a few years away now, not always some decades. It would be just in time so to speak. Can we throw like 1/10 of the US military budget against this tech and have it solved?

It's inefficient enough (in terms of costs) to put lots of little solar panels on peoples' roofs, even more so to put even smaller ones on top of cars which are probably parked in the shade half the time. Where's the synergy?

Surely it's much more efficient for solar panels to be placed in a solar farm in a sunny location where thousands of panels are procured, built and maintained together utilising economies of scale.
Quick except from article…

A few thoughts and takeaways.

1.) This case only applies to employees that the NLRA covers. In other words, it does not apply to anyone classified as a "supervisor" under Section 2(11) the Act. For these employees, keep your severance agreements as-is; this case does not impact them at all.

2.) McLaren Macomb is prospective only. It will have no impact on severance agreements previously signed.

3.) This decision makes very little sense. By the very nature of a severance agreement, you are giving a former employee something to which they are not entitled (additional money) in exchange for a signed agreement that contains certain covenants. The ex-employee is free to take the severance payment in exchange for the signed agreement (including the confidentiality and non-disparagement clauses) or not take the severance payment (and say whatever they want to whom). As these non-disparagement and confidentiality clauses are a condition of the receipt of a severance payment to which a non-employee is not otherwise entitled, I fail to see how the NLRA is implicated at all.

What’s really the downside of falling birth rates (as long as they stabilize, and they obviously will)?

In real terms as far as I can tell: young having to support more old and less competitive on the world stage. There’s not many complaints from the news about those though.

What they complain about is how wages will increase as labor supply tightens (hence the push for more and more immigration) and business profits will fall. So many Ponzi schemes will become ineffective. In other words, it’s going to be harder to be a rich person. Why should we have to sell out our culture via mass immigration to protect the rich and their market sizes?
I use rsync manually, and always with "--dry-run" first. Unless the ransome-ware is smart enough to rot my backup very, very, very slowly, I should be able to detect any problem by simply reading which files are to be overwritten. 99.99% of the files I back up rarely change.

I also have most of my non-sensitive data on Onedrive, which keeps old versions of files.

Yeah that surprised me as well. It would be interesting to get a ‘tech company ordered by headcount’ list but it would make me nervous the listing would result in some executive deciding they should layoff more people.
I get that it's a hard problem.

I don't think this is about "reviewing all search results". This is about reviewing the people who are paying you money to run ads.

In this case, there were likely plenty of signals of fraud. This advertiser was advertising to multiple domains, and each domain was relatively young. Those domains would likely also have had low organic traffic.

Here are some candidate solutions. I haven't thought these through deeply. This is spur-of-the-moment thinking. A multibillion dollar company could hopefully do better than me.

1 - Google could review new paid domains. In this case, the fraudulent site posted contact information, including the phone number for the real business! Phoning that number would have revealed the fraud immediately.

2 - Google could generally validate the identity of its advertisers. Advertising for a business? Cool, let's see some incorporation or tax paperwork.

3 - Google could impose a cost for being fraudulent. Want to run ads? Cool, we'll take a $1,000 retainer for each top-level domain you want to advertise. When you close your account, you can have it back after a 90-day waiting period. If we bounce you for fraud, we'll keep it.

I used to work in ad tech. We reviewed the people we entered into financial relationships with, because we knew their bad behaviour could affect us. Google could do similarly.

Agreed, I'm surprised the linked OP filed a bug for Webkit when I'd say it's the only correct implementation.

HTML is for UIs and I don't think many users would expect an emoji to be counted as 11 symbols when it looks like just one. If this wasn't an emoji but a symbol from a more complex writing system splitting that up would clearly be unacceptable, so I don't see why one should make an exception here just because this one known example of a family emoji still mostly survives the truncation.
Ignoring the issue that targeted advertising requires surveillance, my biggest problem with it is that it removes the only useful thing about ads:

You used to be able to tell pretty quickly what demographic any given content was made for by noticing what ads were running with it. Targeted advertising removes that signal.

Simple legislative fix

Unless you have a magic wand, simplicity usually masks conflicting incentives backed by lots of political, financial, and legal capital. It's like looking at a war and saying 'why don't people just stop fighting, because peace would be nicer.'

The social default is to look at problems as examples of individual deviance from a principled ideal. It's more instructive to look at them as examples of resource mobilization in contested/conflicted spaces.

This article shows the layers of the Earth as being perfectly spherical, like the oblate spheroid that is the top layer of Earth's crust. Little 8km high Everest mountain ranges or 8km deep Mariana trenches are peach fuzz on the 12,750 km diameter billiard ball, and I suppose it seems reasonable to assume that the mantle and core beneath are similarly shaped by gravity to near-perfect spheroids.

Quick notes from first glance at paper https://research.facebook.com/publications/llama-open-and-ef...:

* All variants were trained on 1T - 1.4T tokens; which is a good compared to their sizes based on the Chinchilla-metric. Code is 4.5% of the training data (similar to others). [Table 2]

* They note the GPU hours as 82,432 (7B model) to 1,022,362 (65B model). [Table 15] GPU hour rates will vary, but let's give a range of $1 to $4. The 7B model would have cost ~$82-329k and the 65B something in the range of ~$1-4M. They also note their total time spent for all models: "we used 2048 A100-80GB for a period of approximately 5 months" [sec 6, pg 10]

* 65B model's performance is broadly comparable to PALM-540B. Not a small feat, but also could indicate the benefits of good model-vs-token size ratios [Tables 3,4,5,6]. Their conjecture for underperforming on MMLU (multitask language understanding) compared to PALM-540B and Chinchilla-70B is smaller fraction of books and academic training data.

* Math and code tasks: Math tasks they are substantially worse than Minerva (comparing their 65B to Minerva 62B; they hands down fail against Minerva 540B) [Table 7]. Code tasks they are broadly competitive with PALM-540B (HumanEval and MBPP evals) [Table 8]

* Surprising that instruction fine tuning takes such a small part of the paper (sec 4, pg. 7)

The terminology in Cohomology was pretty opaque to me until I (much later) learned the concepts via a backwards mapping from learning deeper applications of algebraic geometry. I would have learned that much easier if I understood this easier.
> Here are some stats for any passerby who might be convinced to think crypto really has ~zero non-criminal usage [1]. Surely calling 5-25% of many countries' populations criminals (including the US), should be relegated to a fringe extremist view.

Simply owning digital tokens is not a real world usage of those tokens, full stop.

That being said, I can fully accept that 5-25% of a countries population is gullible enough to buy cryptocurrency.
The age old question. It’s basically a symbolic thought exercise. If you enjoyed it and want to do more, look for a job that uses it. Video games use more than one might expect. Khan academy can get you up to speed again.

Yeah, if the panels are so efficient that 8 hrs of sitting can charge 2 hrs of driving, then just put those panels on your roof and wire them into a garage charger.
Wait, I definitely remember reading about this in science magazines years ago: the earth's core is more like solid than liquid because it's under tremendous pressure from gravity, and it's spinning, and it's iron, which is why Earth has a magnetic field.

Is the new discovery that there is actually a fifth layer, which is solid, and that what we previously thought of as the "core" is actually liquid and not the innermost layer?

IMAP. IMAP is the better alternative.

It’s universally supported and battle-tested. We have great servers and clients for it.

It’s not perfect, but it’s also not fundamentally flawed in any way that might put the future of e-mail at risk.

Bolting HTTP and JSON onto e-mail via JMAP — and requiring that everyone implement an entirely new, larger protocol stack — is not an obvious value proposition.

Although this paper is a fairly small-scale proof of concept, I am extremely excited to see where this technique goes. Between ChatGPT and this, I get the feeling that we are just barely touching the surface of what RLHF is capable of in generative models. This paper[0] about mixing in RLHF with supervised learning from the start of LLM training also has me very excited. I feel like we haven't seen a single method make this big of waves in the ML world for a while now.

I personally don't think that the rock has consciousness. I merely try to ponder what it would be like to be a rock.

There is so little to hold on to, given that the rock has no brain, no senses. To me, that implies that there are no concepts, there is no abstraction. Given that most of the universe is gas and rocks, and not brain, it makes me wonder a bit.

My approach is not scientific in a direct way, but I think that, in the long run, it might be helpful to come up with new ideas about reality.

Humans are not perfect either at driving, programming or writing.

At some point it is a question of rate of error. The ML model will keep improving as the net get bigger and the dataset larger.

But I agree they are good at having a very good surface understanding while having little of dept at the moment.

Ex: a human making a mistake of visual interpretation while driving will examine in his mind the error he made and thing of the consequences in a more dangerous situation. The NN will not bother (at the moment)
Yep. You think you can get by without understanding what the Arduino libraries are doing under the hood, until you can't. Then you wasted all that time. I'm just as guilty as anyone spending just as much time avoiding learning something, than just taking the time to learn it.
Thank you. I have been thinking about this since I posted, and the one thing I was sure of is that it was pretty far down the stack.

Half halfheartedly, I was guessing it was something like a rare multi cosmic ray bitflip or something.

From your link:

> Today, many Google Cloud services contain such checks, thus preventing SDC errors from permanently corrupting customer or system data.

It's interesting that it can still happen from one bit in a system like Google's storage for search. I guess that would probably be expensive?

When literally everything in an indoor or other artificial environment is freighted with intrinsic symbolic meaning, something without meaning may be the complimentary thing that completes it. Even machine or electric noise is the artifact of human intent.

Denying meaning doesn't annhialite it. Finding meaninglessness may be even more challenging than the search for meaning itself. This artist may also have made a monoply on authentically meaningless art, since anything informed by it is a coherent reflection.

I'd ask the artist, of what can meaninglessness be the effect?
Technically correct is the best kind of correct! Anyway, it sort of depends on the definition of "left" and "right"; not sure how allsides.com defines them. Reason seems to be "libertarian", which is a mix of positions one might call [maybe even rather far-]left and [rather far-]right, and one might perhaps say that "the average" of these positions (if you could take a scalar average in a vector space, which of course what allsides.com does by necessity and so are we in this conversation) is "center." The Guardian is seemingly "left" in most ways according to typical current definitions.

If you're not using scoped styles, yes. However, in an apps these days most people use something like CSS modules or CSS in JS which automatically scope styles.

actually that has nothing to do with imap. Imap supports even OAuth2 Authentication trough sasl and the oauth2 authentication for imap will be more and more of an standard, it just sucks that most providers don't support a few things that makes it easier, like dynamic clients, etc.
They do, on a per-session basis - but it's an optional feature (that's supported by ~100% of all imap server implementations).
