Yes indeed, however that isn’t really an economic development model most would want to hold up as an ideal.
Here's someone who has clearly never been to Canada. Canada has lots of problems, yes, but this just smacks of a strongly held yet uninformed opinion.

Actually, looking at their comment history they seem to be the champion of edgy one-liner comments. Nothing to see here.
I could write a thousand books on problems I have with regional transit in the Bay Area, but that’s irrelevant to how it actually works from a policy perspective.

Each and every City in California is its own legal monopoly on land use, all of them, how it’s working out for them isn’t pertinent to whether or not that’s how it works. Don’t mistake my position for advocacy, it’s a relaying of facts. By and large, this is more or less how it works across the States, but that can vary since the States can basically do anything as far as how they organize local government so long as it falls within some kind of democratic principles and norms.

So effecting regional transit policy basically has three paths in the Bay Area: setup a special cross-county district government like BART, or get buy-in between the relevant jurisdictions you want to run a train through. If that’s a dozen cities and three counties, you’re going to need to talk to all of them. The third path is for the State to implement something directly, but in practice that’s subject to local politics as well, and the State Government per its own laws does not actually have carte blanche to do as it likes with the land over the wishes of local government.
The only camera I have in a living space is my father's house far away; the house is empty most of the time and the camera in the living room is showing if anyone broke in via any door or window. When anyone goes there, that camera is physically disconnected for the entire duration.

Another case that is valid is for very old people that share the video with their family. A few months ago a very old (~ 100) lady that I know died and her only daughter, one continent away, found out by checking the camera. The alternative would be for neighbors to call the police days later for not seeing her, but that is undesirable.

I'm right about what now?
> The current treatment doesn’t care about the underline reasons as much as immediately giving you a SSRI.

I had panic and anxiety a lot, it turned out to be ADHD. My brain wasn't getting enough stimulation from reward and good feelings so it apparently supplemented it with anxiety and bad feelings. It's also where my OCD came from.

Once I started on ADHD meds, all my depression, anxiety, and a lot of OCD just... went away.

So yeah, I also wish more doctors would consider things other than SSRIs.

Exactly. I mean we're all human and to a certain extent we need the dopamine rush and to feel alive, have some fun, say what we think. But to be him and go out on what's probably the most watched stream of letters in the world, and say "he's the worst" or "he didn't do any work", I mean, come on. There must be at least a tiny little cricket on his shoulder saying "hmm, not worth it". There must be.
That TED talk was great! Hoping to watch the other video tonight, thanks for sharing
The penalty definitely needs to be steeper. Companies this big see $1.5 million penalty as just “business costs”. It doesn’t act as a deterrent. I think it should be steep enough for GoodRx and other companies to think 10 times before doing this kind of shady stuff.

As with class action suites, big companies have armies of lawyers to fight such cases for ages and ultimately the victims tend to settle for less because they can’t afford to fight forever.
To be clear, the Wuhan Institute of Virology's research program involving betacoronaviruses and CRISPR gene editing technology was funded in part by the US government via a grant to Ecohealth Alliance from the NIH (at least $600,000 which is fairly significant) and the lead researcher at Wuhan developed that approach in collaboration with US scientists, so it's hardly just 'China's fault'.

If a complete ban on this kind of research (CRISPR-editing wild-type viral sequences to make them more infectious in human cell lines, or in mice expressing human genes, etc.) had been implemented and enforced by NIH and NIAID, this scenario might have been avoided. Any (financial? criminal?) reckoning over who is at fault would result in at least some significant degree of shared liability between the USA and China.

Kinda weird that I don't see any exposed gpio pins on the board? The SoC has "up to 170" gpio pins, and especially it has those fancy PRUSSes in there, so feels like huge missed opportunity to not expose any of that?
Typo fixed.

That's not obscure imho. What kernel driver do I use for this hardware is /exactly/ the kind of search google built its reputation on back in the old days when they did search.

The shock for me is I really /expect/ that to be easy becuase so very many similar searches have been, using google search, before. I've noticed it getting steadily worse along these lines in ways it really did not used to be. I've noticed it being because it wants to recommend not search. Seems others are noticing the same.

What alternative strategies do we have for search where we used to rely on google and now cannot?

The Curiosity Daily podcast covered this a few days ago.

The podcast is a daily 15 minutes where the hosts present science topics like this in a more casual friendly way. One person tells the other about the contents of the article and then have a back and forth discussion on the key points or to clarify things that were left out. It's a pretty good way to get a quick idea of the latest scientific research in an easy to digest format.

> what would you, as somebody interested in the matter, consider good criteria for "being the intellectual capital of the world" and what place would fit them?

I'd say such a place would need to be geared toward minimizing anything that could hinder intellectual capacity. The SF Bay Area (as I learned firsthand) is not such a place; the constant stress of financial insecurity does not bode well for intellectual pursuits. I don't know if any such place really exists, for pretty much the same reason - certainly not here in the US.

In short, it'd need to be someplace where people could engage in intellectual pursuits for their own sake, and where the results of those pursuits are freely available to everyone - no censorship, no profit motives, no IP restrictions, nothing except the free creation and exchange of knowledge.

I firmly believe that any city which institutes a land value tax and uses it to fund a citizens' dividend / universal basic income is much more likely to become an intellectual capital than a city which does not. Land speculation is the major contributor to socioeconomic inequality and consequently the major obstacle preventing cities from being truly amenable to intellectual pursuits (rather than the current status quo of financial pursuits). Directly addressing it - by requiring landowners to internalize the opportunity costs they otherwise externalize onto the rest of society - is IMO the most crucial step toward allowing people to engage in intellectual pursuits without fear of failure and without being bound by concerns like profitability.

Culturally, San Francisco, Seattle, and Boston strike me as good candidates once they address the above; the first of those three to implement LVT+UBI is the one I'd bet on becoming the "intellectual capital of the world". I'm personally hoping Reno evolves into such a candidate, but that's one hell of a long shot :)
Fun fact, in Arizona you can legally operate a motorized gas powered bicycle without license / registration. It's all the rage with alcoholics and people that didn't think out having a valid driver's license before they moved to a new state (because if they did, they wouldn't need an appointment and the new one could be issued on the spot 24/7). It's actually one of the few places you can walk into a (private contractor) and get a state license at 3am on a Sunday.

> Silvergate’s ability to find a white knight bidder to “salvage” the bank ended when gutsy U.S. Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), John Kennedy (R-LA), and Roger Marshall (R-KS) released a letter on January 30 to the bank’s CEO, Alan Lane.

https://wallstreetonparade.com/2023/03/silvergate-a-federall...

> Another way that Silvergate apparently met the run on the bank was to obtain $4.3 billion in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco – a program meant to support housing for the poor.
Whether it's policy, technology, or medicine (I don't quite understand why medicine would reduce the metric we care about, number of surviving children) doesn't matter. There may be a solution a nation could take, but immigration enables it (or rather, its economy) to persist, without addressing the falling birth rates, at the price of slowly giving way to a new, immigrant population.
ChatGPT style AI is an example of an innovation that seems to be very capital intensive. People are generally not going to be spinning up viable competitors in their garage. The reliance on tons of capital up-front will drive the need to monetize the resulting product in as many ways as possible to recoup the investment.
I'm pretty sure we still plan to have lights in our renewable energy utopia.
I wish the gov't had non-fine forms of punishment because "BH must contact all data brokers that have ever had access to BH data and have them permanently delete it. And no data collected or generated by BH and their users may be accessed by or transmitted to 3rd parties without the express written approval from an FTC regulator who will inspect the data being sent for privacy and HIPAA violations" would cost nothing but get them and every other company in the space to clean up their act.
That follows one of the core optimization strategies: "do less work", or more precisely, "don't do work you aren't going to use, and don't repeat work you've already done". Here, the extra work is that of copying the token text to create new string objects.
What do you mean underreported? TLT losing value isn’t news. The average duration of TLT’s US Treasurys is ~20 years—if rates go up 1%, the bond principle value goes down ~15-20%. The 20y treasury yield went from ~2% in Jan22 to 4% in Mar23, and TLT went from $150->$100 in the same time period.

Anyone who knows what TLT is likely knows about duration risk.

There was no criticism, it was just a statement of what the researchers did, but with a sneer. Criticism is when you come up with reasons why those surveys wouldn't be representative, not instead choosing to deal in the fud of a sarcastic tone posing as argument.

Were they suggesting that nothing short of a multibillion dollar survey of every forest in the entire world is a minimum requirement for writing a paper where you make educated guesses about what the data you have means? Were they suggesting that the forest surveyed was not representative in some way, and that adding surveys of forests that have those characteristics would give us a better idea?

Trick questions. They weren't suggesting anything other than suspicion.

ADHD medication. My ADHD was so bad that I couldn't get out of bed consistently without having the blanket forcefully ripped away from my body. Didn't have a 24 hour schedule either because I'd randomly just become unable to get out of bed and fall asleep early even if I wasn't actually tired.

Obviously don't look into this unless you actually have ADHD. However, if you haven't actually done research on ADHD in adults, you shouldn't rule it out until you have.
Is it ironic that his comments are harder to read (on mobiles) precisely because of his weird self-imposed word wrapping?

I get it. His arguments make sense because they don’t want to bake in a specific “start block quote character”, and without that generic word wrapping is quite difficult (even though everyone uses >).

Presumably because then they would have to charge you a percentage of your money for storage and people don’t want to pay the bank.
I wonder how this is implemented in the GPU. From my time working on a 3D renderer a long time ago, triangles with offscreen vertices would be clipped into smaller triangles, so in the end you would still be rendering multiple triangles anyway. I imagine it would also be possible to clip the scanlines instead.
If only the Playdate could charge using the crank.
Consider that if you do not like or miss something from the available OSS solutions that are or could be made scriptable (FreeCAD or others, e.g. SolveSpace), you need to touch source.

FreeCAD & SolveSpace are C++. After 30+ years of that language and four years of Rust I won't touch the former with a ten foot pole unless it's an extraordinarily well paid gig.

I wouldn't be suprised if the author of fornjot had similar feelings if they ever considered that approach.

fornjot is a hobby project. So the fact that they start from scratch and may take years is not a deterrent. Rather its part of the appeal, I would assume. ;)
If you pay attention to ToS's, you'll find companies are increasingly trying to pull stunts like this. The CRA's terms are objectionable, yet sadly benign compared to other reprehensible terms I've seen gating the web. Lawyers are copying each other's tactics and propogating dark patterns that I doubt will stand the test of litigation (but will cost some poor sap a lot of money and time to get there). Indemnity clauses are another one (no, I'm not going to reimburse you for damage if my account gets hacked through no fault of my own).

When I encounter clearly dodgy terms like this I often contact the organization and tell them I do not accept the given clause. Sometimes they say 'stop using our service' (rarely enforced) but most often they simply don't respond.

Someone at CRA with authority to fix this might perk up if thousands of Canadians start emailing them about it, report it to MP's, the Privacy Commissioner and other ombudsmen, etc.

EU 8K TV ban goes into effect – here’s how Samsung got around it
I successfully failed to create an Arduino accessory for my Remarkable to use with live music.

It was a stomp box with two buttons, which emulated a left keypress and a right keypress to turn pages on the Remarkable. I had an Arduino micro inside with some very simple code to emulate a USB keyboard and debounce the inputs on GPIO pins connected to the stomp switches.

It connected to the side connector POGO pins on the Remarkable with some 3d printed plastic and magnets. The POGO pin connector I was able to source from mouser.

It worked... for a few minutes, and then some reason, the keyboard would disconnect and the Linux kernel would be like "ope, theres flapping on that USB port, better shut that off!"

Ultimately I gave up. But man I would _love_ an accessory like that, because the remarkable is _perfect_ for reading sheet music. Unlike piano, electric Bass and guitar require two hands on the instrument pretty much all times, so screen swipes really aren't practical.
I had the impression that the kind of people that go for 2nd also go for 1st, 4th and all rights in general, but because I am living on a different continent my impression may be wrong.

General question for the MLOps community: I usually see tools like this launch all the time. I'm eager to experiment, but I find my use cases never fit, and I end up just building a simple internal tool that does the job. Usually because the dataset or model is too unique.

Because if you kill everything it leaves a lot of room for new things to move in and specialize.

Which is fine until you realize kill most biodiversity may include humans. Even if the earth survives doesn't mean we will.
I don't view the move to opt-in as a meaningful one because it's trivial to content-lock certain features to the point where the vast majority of users will opt-in even if they don't understand what is going on. At that point, the company collecting the data is in an even stronger position.

The solution is to allow the user to easily and in real-time access and control (port, delete) all of their data or data about them that a company holds.
And who do you think is propagating this misinformation?

Your comment is coincidentally very similar to the Russian propaganda.
Why would Putin be helping pro-West demonstrators? Wouldn't he be helping the sitting government against the demonstators?

I just saw a photo of the demonstrations with pro-West demonstrators being cloaked in EU flags.

Looks more like the 'Color Revolution' playbook to me.
I believe GP was describing the [Land Value Tax](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_value_tax). The idea being that a government invests in the infrastructure that improves the value of the land and because it's _public_ money funding those improvements, the property taxes should reflect the value provided.

No one would be forcing people to live a certain way, just forcing them to either pay for the privilege of living in an area that was granted public funding for improved infrastructure, or live somewhere else that received less public investment.

As a thought experiment, I find it easiest to understand the arguments for the Land Value Tax if you imagine a local government building a new subway line. Obviously, the existing homes around the new stops would have their property values increased. After all, many commute times were just cut in half! The local government is interested in more people living near those lines, more people == more tax revenue after all. If the local government had a Land Value Tax implemented, the infrastructure improvements they made to the area would automatically be included in the calculation for the taxes owed by the existing homeowners near the new subway stops. $1M/yr may sound insane, and it would be for a single-family home, but because of the new subway line, local developers are lining up to purchase the homes around that line in order to build new higher-density homes. The existing homeowners can either choose to pay the high tax and enjoy their short commute paid for by other taxpayers, or sell at a nice profit to developers. New higher-density homes get built, more taxpayers move in, the city can now build more infrastructure to improve the city!

Sometimes you can do this in two instructions per 16 / 32 / 64 chars (sse / avx / avx-512 resp): shuffle & compare.

The gist of it is

lookup[hash(char)] == char

where 'lookup[hash(char)]' corresponds to _mm_shuffle_epi8 with a carefully crafted constant and input data, and '==' corresponds to _mm_cmpeq_epi8.

The intrinsic c = _mm_shuffle_epi8(a, b) pretty much computes c[i] = b[a[i] & 0x0F], so if there are no collisions in a[i] & 0x0F, you can construct a special b so that

b[hash('@')] = '@'
b[hash('/')] = '/'
b[hash('?')] = '?'
b[hash('\\')] = '\\'
b[x] = 0x00 # otherwise

Unfortunately in this case, it doesn't work, since `/` and `?` have a collision, they both map to `0x0F`.

If you would just search for say @, / and \, it would be possible, and shuffle + cmp is sufficient.
again, why would i put my money in bonds when the interest rates are rock bottom ?

I invest in treasuries when interests are high or gonna stay high. If i see us hitting a recession in coming year, i keep mostly cash and start piling into treasuries over each hike cycle until at least the central banks start cutting rates and keep riding the treasuries till rates keep moving down.

Or in other words, dont fight the fed
