tl;dr: yes, it is similar, but it's also about the same amount of radiation as you're normally exposed to in 4 days. For most people I'd guess that isn't a concern, but the parent's question is apt -- how much time do military pilots spend actually flying?
looking here (https://www.wsj.com/articles/us-flying-aces-need-more-time-a...), it seems the average is 10-60 hours, depending on whether deployed or not. I don't know about altitude, but if that's not a significant factor, then deployed pilots are getting ~10 NYC-LA flights per year, or 40 days of extra radiation per year. Honestly this doesn't seem too bad to me.

I was surprised by the claim, so I looked into the linked source:
"You would be exposed to about 0.035 mSv (3.5 mrem) of cosmic radiation if you were to fly within the United States from the east coast to the west coast. This amount of radiation is less than the amount of radiation we receive from one chest x-ray."

I note that it says _less than_ in the source, so let's compare the actual numbers -- it's 0.035 mSv for the flight (from the first source) and 0.1 mSv for the chest x-ray (from https://www.cancer.org/treatment/understanding-your-diagnosi...). It does seem fair to say they are similar. The cancer.org source also notes that you'd normally be exposed to about 0.1 mSv naturally over the course of about 10 days. So we can say the flight from NYC to LA is ~4 days of natural radiation exposure.
ChatGPT is like the pocket calculator. It was "cheating" when it first showed up, but is regardless here to stay. You can either go to great lengths trying to ensure that students don't use it at home or in the classroom, or you can just hand one to them and go "now do your best".

These students are going to be entering a workplace where language models and all other iterations of AI will be prevalent and expected to be used in day to day work. There is zero reason students shouldn't also get familiar with the technology instead of pretending it doesn't exist.

I disagree, I think unless it’s super urgent fix that can’t wait , wait for Monday, folks who are on-call will thank you for this. Also as a culture, it’s big red flag personally to me when employees don’t think about their colleagues who are oncall and just aspire to build systems that are supposed to be built perfectly with perfect coverage of tests that can detect bugs (remember tests can only tell you presence of bugs you expect to find, not absence of all bugs).

Obviously the easiest way to provoke thought within the skeptic is to ask, “If it is within the realm of possibilities for the human race to invent a driver allowing interstellar travel, why shouldn’t an extraterrestrial race also be capable of it?”

I would assume someone would counter with the fact that extraterrestrial life hasn’t been discovered. A question to often revisited. For all we know extraterrestrial life surrounds their inhabited planets with strict ingress and egress policies.

I would say your claim and data is what you are accusing of. The real answer is that data shows that even per capita, if you exclude small island nations and low population Nordic countries, per capita consumption is easily the highest in Asia. If you account for total population, which again is highest in Asia, the total consumption of these countries is the highest.

The fed has backstopped the FDIC. Instead of letting taxpayers foot the bill, of which are majority of payers are the very wealthy, they will foot the bill via inflation by rolling back some of the QE. Sure it's just a loan but what if the loan has no one to repay. Who will repay this loan in SVB's situation (the shortfall of asset sales to account balances) maybe I am misunderstanding. The money to cover the shortfall of the FDIC was conjured. It will find a way to your grocery bill. If all the banks are paying a fee to foot the bill, the payers of that fee will be you the customer.

It's not about "rights", it's about actually making things happen.

Pretty much the rest of the country has awful public schools. Every large city has a few good ones and a number of less than wonderful ones.

I think a meaningful separation point might be the cost of living and more specifically the taxes raised from housing. If you have houses with an average price of $1M and houses with an average price of $300k, in the latter a public school system would simply have less to work with.

I meant that a large number of codecs supported by FFMPEG are patent encumbered, and nobody ships them in the US. This is well known. Even distros based in the US such as Fedora/RHEL do not ship them out of the box. So clean room v/s reverse engineered gets into a secondary issue that is mostly moot.
Herein lies the issue.

Your library addresses issues that you personally have perceived exist with licensing software.

What you haven't done is ascertain what issues actually exist.

For example, what problem does your library alleviate?

There are other examples out there that can also be used for free, so it's not that.

There are examples that work natively across multiple environments, like Mac, Linux and Windows. Again, your library doesn't help there.

Java, C++, Swift etc.? Nope.

Centralized auditing? Cryptographically secure? Battle tested?

Sadly your local library strikes out everywhere - it's very core sadly let's it down because you didn't actually identify a problem to address, so your "solution" isn't really going to move a needle.

Multiple questions have been asked of you but nowhere have you really identified the audience for this library.

Why should someone use it over something else?

There's 100s of similar packages available on Nuget - many of them seemingly unmaintained.

For your library to be of use, you need to offer value over the cruft and crud.

Open source is a blessing and a curse. I've multiple packages out there that I thought were pretty neat at the time - and filled a niche spot. Few folk felt the same but that's fine by me as well.

Rather than try to iterate on this, I'd step back and ask yourself the hard question: what does your lib do better (or at least equally as well) as the competition?

And be severely critical. Given the stated purpose of this library, put yourself in the mind of an adversary: how quickly could you defeat it? If it's mere minutes then it's not good enough.

Look for all the weaknesses, look how other libraries fix the weaknesses.

In the end you may decide to give up. That's fine as well. Don't treat it as failure though, just use it as a stepping stone and try, try again.

Interesting, so why don’t we ever see the word expats associated with the millions of laborers from poorer nations working in the Middle East with no path to citizenship ever referred to as expats ?

Seoul is 40km from the border, right?

This plant isn't being located in Seoul, despite what the stupid headline says.

Energy isn't included either. Kind of amazing they can get away with publishing an inflation stat that excludes every core household expenditure category.
I'm looking at a grade school right now, I watch kids come and go all day long but yes I don't have backing statistics.
I think it’s just 1). Without 1) there is no purpose to the Fed really, since all their tools amount to manipulating interest rates and spending (printing) money unauthorized by the legislature.

If there’s no fractional reserve, new money is only created by government spending via spending bills passed by congress. People can hold deposit accounts with the government directly (via the treasury) so there’s no possibility of losing deposits. Investments can be left to the market. Interest rates for loans can better reflect real risk, instead of
an imaginary number backed by inflation.

When a bank that has made loans fails, the people who took the loan keep the money and collateral. There would be no risk to deposits or housing by bank failure. And the market selects for banks that are actually better at managing risk (imagine that!)

A similar system was proposed as far back as the 1930s and was known as the “Chicago Plan”.
And the reality is “I don’t know” is a valid response! But it isn’t satisfying, I remember five year-old me would get very upset with my mom if she said something like that, unless it was followed up with “but let’s go look it up together.” Unfortunately for OpenAI, that isn’t the kind of response their customers probably want to see; they would likely get annoyed and go back to Google or DDG or something else.

Almost by definition, inflation is caused only by expanding the money supply. Zero rates and QE expanded the money supply to be keep economies on life support after the GFC and Covid. However this led to asset bubbles more than high street inflation as the extra money flowed first to the already wealthy. Resource miss-allocation due to the miss pricing of time/risk has now likely manifested itself in lower productivity and so higher prices for goods and services too.

Of course, helicopter money (debt cancellation, Covid relief), will also increase the money supply, but at least it will flow first to the most needy. If the price of eggs goes up because more people can actually afford to eat them, I'm not sure that is a bad thing.
They're very common in America, too.

While I do think there is some threshold where increased productivity makes positions redundant, I don't think 2x would do it in most orgs. My current team easily has enough work for us all to be 2x more productive.

Can you really just look at the cumulative amount of radiation? Does the intensity not matter? If you compressed those 4 days' worth of exposure into, say, 1 second, would that not have any different effect?
By curiosity, do you also ship during company-wide holidays or events ?

For isntance if your whole company is at a yearly retreat in some vacation park, including part of the SRE team, but two or more devs are still working for whatever reasons, would they ship a full refactoring of some service ?

I'm always interested in where the boundaries are, if you could share.
Wrong? It's just a fact that generative AI can simply train against these "protected" images. I don't think the parent said anything about ethics, if this is even an ethical issue in the first place.
I agree with that as a short-term strategy to address the immediate crisis. However if we want to avoid more crisis in the future I think it is necessary to re-examine the fundamental assumptions of the existing model.

Also, we have to do something about the issue of regulatory capture. The Fed knew that hundreds of banks were insolvent as far back as September [0], yet they did nothing to protect depositors. Why not and why should we trust the Fed going forward given their terrible terrible track record?

The Fed gave us a decade of zero interest rates. The Fed told us there would be no inflation, then they told us inflation was transitory. As far as I am concerned the Federal Reserve is nothing more than a centralized public relations arm of the banking industry.

>> it's simply not healthy for most people to go without any animal products in their diets

>That's not true, sorry. https://talkveganto.me/en/facts/suitable-for-all/

Please cite a neutral source on the matter.

In the end, the food you buy, clothes you wear, even the computer you're using right now, no matter animal based or not, is, as I said, almost certainly shipped to you by some sort of carbon-emitting vehicle, usually one, like a truck, that emits far more carbon than any car you might drive. The industrial processes involved to create these, everything in your life, emit carbon--certainly worse than that, your computer was built with rare earth minerals that were probably extracted with near or actual slave labor. Your existence, on this planet, as a human being, is harmful in some sense to the environment, there is no getting around the fact that you, as an embodied ego, has to cause some level of destruction to the life around you in order to continue living. And there is no getting around the fact that the industrial revolution has radically improved the quality of life around the world for the better, and that nobody, I assume yourself included, as you responded to me on an online forum, would ever abandon all the luxuries it brings. That doesn't mean that we can't improve things as they are. On the contrary, for instance, when you said:

>Plant-based is one of the best things an individual can do the lower his carbon footprint

That only applies to a developed economy. India has some of the worst pollution in the world on account of their backwards agricultural practices, and their population is something like 50% vegetarian, it is only on account of technology that we have been able to feed the large populations of the US and Europe without destroying local environments. When that technology is employed for the benefit of people who work together to improve their conditions, then society flourishes. But technology, scientific and social development are all developed collectively, and they are the only way to improve our environmental conditions--nobody alone, no individual responsibility, as I said, will change what the mass of society will do. If you let individuals alone to do what they like, on the sole condition they eat plant-based diets, I'm sure you will get something a lot closer to what they have in India than anything else.
How is that not also true to commercial AI model creators who will train against these adversarial images?

No, Japan has had massively crashing population, which offset the massive inflationary impact.

https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/JPN/japan/population-g...

Despite a massive decrease in population, Japan has been mostly flat, when they should be in a strong deflationary environment due to demand destruction - because, you know, people being dead.

So hey, if the US population would decrease .5% a year (doesn’t sound like a lot, but it adds up fast - 1.75 mln/yr if in the US), we could also tame some inflation!
Alternatively you can look at it from cost/benefit point of view. Cost of testing grows exponentially as you approach the 100% certainty. You can say "it's probably fine" with an okay test coverage and a few minutes of poking around in a staging environment. But to say "it's 100% definitely fine" you need to fully test every last bit of the whole system, with real data, in realistic environment and load.

If the project is launching a space ship, then investment in every possible testing method is probably worth it. But when maintaining a blog, you can keep costs down if it can wait until Monday.
