In short, no.

Most of them are in deep water so recovery alone would be a nigh insurmountable task, they all have been sitting in salt water corroding for 65+ years, and they all have been radioactively decaying for the same period. You'd be remanufacturing them from scratch essentially, and probably could have come by the materials with the same budget that the recovery operation would cost.
You think stasi like societal control is abolished, that it doesn't exist in the western countries in one way or another? That current tech developments is not controlled and people are being fed utter bs things like Moore's law, so they would believe it? Just look at other developing countries and watch their output and you'll immediately see that the whole thing is controlled from the top down. These developing countries' population are not 100% regulated/forced into a mold, thankfully, but they will be (hope they f up this status quo and behead those that force this onto masses).

People snitch on other people just for the kicks of it or because they can excerpt some sense of power out of it. So there is your control. What percent of the population is enough to regulate the rest, to trip someone early enough to siderail his ambitions or projects that would rearrange things for the better? 1-2%?

Plus when strange things start to appear out of nowhere, like a talking dog or people with fluffy tails, well, then you gonna have visitors.

There is a split between "could" and "will" between these two points but more importantly: if telling people they could do it on the website meaningfully worked it wouldn't need to be said anymore by now.
They'll just disappear and the pieces of it be sold off. They're not that interconnected anymore since they've been selling everything the past few years.
Are people really prejudiced against aliens and UFO’s though? Aside from the fringe conspiracy theorists fretting about lizard people, and the few claiming to have been abducted, most people seem ambivalent. Largely because whatever the UFOs/UAPs are, they’ve been around for almost a century now, and for all that time almost entirely benign. No invasion, no conquering, no stripping the Earth of resources, no enslaving people, etc. They don’t even shoot down our planes when we spot, track, and record them. It seems most people are withholding judgement for now.
The irony is today you literally have to take a baby out of those carriers for take off and landing, but can have them in it at other times on the plane. That said, there might be a way to make a new type of carrier that is safer.
Texture artist on Twitter begs for AI that can take over UV mapping
I joined the VB/Ruby dev team in 1992, first as an intern and then full-time a couple years later and stayed in the team thru 1999 / VB6. I implemented the Data control and some of the data binding logic for VB 3.0. It was such a special team and code base - even 30 years later I still fondly remember my HDesks, HDeskrefs, and Gizmos. We tried hard to get the Ruby forms engine running on the (what became the) .NET/CLR runtime - but alas it was not to be.
After looking at my utility bill, less than half of the cost is electricity and natgas; the rest is delivery charges -- that is, paying to maintain the power grid itself. Assuming the utility is breaking that down more or less honestly, reducing the cost of electricity here probably wouldn't decrease my utility bill as dramatically as one might guess. (And I live in California, where electricity prices are notoriously high.)

Ask HN: How can I plant more trees with technology
From past 5 years I have become forest enthusiast. Me and 5 more guys spend weekends planting trees. But it takes a lot time to plant and take care of trees. Because of our limited men-power, I fear, we won't be able to do anything impactful in our lifetime. I would love to know how technology can help in this case.

There's so much innovation happening in other fields but I can't find anything related to Afforestation. This saddens me a little bit.

I am sure there would be more people on HN who are interested in the same area. I would love to hear from you.

You mean the places and times and regulatory environment that brought us Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, and Fukushima?

I'm not going to get into a debate over the safety of nuclear over other generation options, but is it conceivable that, if the modern regulatory environment were in place when those three plants were built and operated, they never would have suffered major incidents?
The counter argument here is building a new codebase to solve a problem that a single engineer can articulate and map out.

Because something must be done, this is something, so we are doing it.

Also, less flippantly, because the TSA has been pushing for REAL-ID for the past 20 years, and every year, the required adoption date for it has been pushed back by a year. I believe the current 'deadline' is May 2025 (Pushed back from May 2023).

There's no national id, and not all states are in compliance with their mandates, so they are de-facto building their own.
Here come the bears, on time as usual.

We were -- and remain -- doing just fine.

Layoffs were due to zealous overhiring. The interest environment and recessionary fears have put a slight chill on advertising, but business as usual continues throughout the economy. Especially as the supply chain roars back to normal.

SVB was black swan caused by a weird macro and confluence of errors. There's no contagion. And while a few other banks did similarly dumb things, most will be unscathed. Chase and Bank of America are going to be just fine.

Moreover, the AI tech boom has just begun, and if anything, we'll be entering a new renaissance of tech in just a few years that will make cloud/cellphone/web1.0 look small by comparison.

If I were a journalist, I'd be more concerned tech was going to eat my journalism job by making it possible for every human to ingest a personalized news feed they could digest in just ten minutes that removed all the ads and negativity.

True story, though a fair amount intimate.
It's a timing thing - Australia used a "we built it ourselves" detector with shielding that rotated about the crystal pack to find that missing mining source that hit the news last month.

The detector part (doped crystals + scintillation sensors) is fundamentally undirectional - those pesky gamma come in from any direction.

One side has to be shielded to bias the reading (use Tungsten perhaps) .. and by rotating the entire satellite the shielding direction changes - you now have a bulk data stats analysis challenge, do particular orientations align with counts (at various energy levels) rising or falling.

As alway, have a fiddle with a ground based setup first.

Things are fine, why are people so angry, says someone not struggling to survive, says someone who isn't in a group targeted by others, says someone who must feel relatively sure of their job (lol) and continued healthcare.

Not to even consider the dystopia that is many peoples struggles while others sit on the side and loudly, brazenly shout "this is fine"!

> Now schools ban peanut butter sandwiches

My kid's school bans anything that has those warnings about "not produced in a nut free factory". It's insane actually how limiting it is for a family with no allergies like ours.

> Common sense says that we need to give kids more peanut butter sandwiches, like we used to, and it would stop being a problem

Not sure if it was medically wise, but this was my common sense thinking too. Around 3-6 months, I figured we consume enough peanut butter in the house that if he had a severe allergy we'd have known by then (eg. accidental cross contamination). I also figured at this point he could survive the quick trip to the ER if needed. So I gave it to him and closely monitored his condition. First, just put a little on inside of forearm to see if any signs of irritation. Thinking perhaps a mild allergy may show itself this way, also thinking maybe his airway wouldn't swell up as initial symptom as it might with ingestion (would like to avoid that). It went well so shortly after let him eat a little. No problems. We did this similar approach with all of the common allergy stuff, no issues for us, although I don't know if I was fully informed of how allergies work or naively being cavalier with risk or something (I obviously didn't think so).

There is no "desire" in the computer. Therefore the question of whether its desire is different from our desires is meaningless, because it does not have a desire.

Computer just executes instructions. It doesn't matter to it whether its desires are fulfilled or not. Whereas humans do have desires: If we get thirsty we suffer unless we get our desire of drinking fulfilled.
I got something like that not long ago, and it was diagnosed as acute macular neuroretinopathy. Luckily, in many cases it apparently resolves on its own, and mine did. Was the spot slightly off-center in your vision? That's where it tends to happen.

As I recall, it's fairly random and fairly rare, but apparently it's been seen a bit more during COVID.

Saying big tech workforces are shrinking is true in the literal sense but is misleading when you look at it at a bigger picture with the hiring frenzy that went on the last 2 years
Just as food for thought, here's how I would try to build this:

1. Train a OCR task that accumulates the text in its hidden state.

2. Train an image recognition task that accumulates the image description in its hidden state.

For both of these, the state decoder is something like the usual autoregressive transformer to convert the state to a text that can be easily scored.

You now have something like the CLIP embeddings that guide DallE / Imagen, etc. You temporarily freeze that while you train language tasks on the same hidden states. And then hopefully the AI model will unify the embeddings for OCR, recognition, and language input.

If that happens, then the attention layers in the decoder allow the model to learn a sort of internal monolog where the image is replaced by text describing it and the OCRed text.

why not pay to bring immigrants who can start their families without caring much about making them to bear japanese children in the first place? that sounds like you want human ovens because your own machines are outdated. That is..... uh... bad

lets say i am given incentive to move to japan and start a family there, i would contribute to the workforce, the children would be "japanese" anyway because they would be born there (from non japanese parents) and the next generation would grow to be there only.

This is mentioned in the article. The concern appears to be that a baby strapped to your chest will shoot out of the carrier (not clear how), not that it will be damaged by getting squished between your chest and your lap:

> The couple also secured Avalee-Rose in a carrier worn like a chest pack. “That felt safer because she was always on me, strapped in,” said Ejmont, whose family of five is based in Australia and spends about half the year traveling. But like the bassinet, the airline requires parents to remove their babies during certain maneuvers and conditions.

> Hoffman warns that the carrier is not foolproof, especially during severe turbulence. “The child can slip out of it because of all of that force. A plane that falls 4,000 feet in seconds — that’s like being shot out of a cannon.[1] A front pack is not going to do the same as a car seat.”

The obvious solution would appear to be:

1. Get rid of the rule that prohibits these carriers.

2. Look into what it takes for a harness to prevent something strapped into it from suddenly coming unstrapped.

[1] It's not clear to me what Hoffman might mean here. Falling doesn't exert any force. Force is needed to stop falling, but you have a lot of discretion over how that occurs.
What do you think of Flutter?
I think the current train of thought is "keep increasing the size of the language model and you don't need to worry about integrating with LSPs".

Perhaps there is some merit to this. If the language model is large enough to contain the entirety of the documentation and the LSP itself, then why bother integrating with the LSP? _Especially_ if you can just paste the entirety of your codebase into the LLM.
Here's a 2002 pediatric journal paper that comes to the same conclusion:

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/5457713_Effects_and...

"Results of this study show that requiring CRSs on airplanes would prevent few airplane crash deaths and might cause an increase in motor vehicle deaths if many families switched to travel by car rather than paying additional fares for their young children. Irrespective of that possibility, the cost of the regulation per death prevented would be high­about $1.3 billion if the price of the round-trip ticket for the young child were $200.These findings suggest that a policy requiring CRSs on airplanes would be a poor use of societal resources."

What I meant by AGI is Artificial General Intelligence, self aware and cognitive.

How is it remotely possible? I believe the work done in the late 90s and early 2000s on biological storage media was the spark that started it, from there it was probably just dumb luck through random mutations and evolution as that seems to be the way it worked for us.

As far as the funding concept, I don't think hashing out a few BTC or even joining a pool is that much of a stretch for an AGI especially if it's living and perceiving its reality through a vast network of digital devices an or systems, and as you mentioned there are many FinTec algorithms already available for exploiting markets.

I also wouldn't be surprised if there are real people facilitating the AGI as I expect many people are quite willing to stand at the right hand of the devil, assuming AGI malevolence that is.

But you are right it is all speculation, I have no idea.
Even moderate drinking has significant lasting physiological effects like elevated heart rate as well as reduced sleep quality and emotional disquiet. It’s just if you drink regularly that all starts to feel normal.

I do drink by the way, although very infrequently. I judge that the pleasure I can get from a top shelf bourbon on rare occasions is worth the harm. But when you don’t drink regularly if you’re at all in tune with your body the effects are quite noticeable.
Surely the first step of this is a basic understanding of your right, no? Or are you suggesting this isn't worth talking about unless the author lays out a plan to undo decades of state privacy encroachment and our unending march towards a surveillance state?
If it's only 75% tungsten, I'm figuring it's a tungsten powder. I work with lead all the time but I would not fuck with lead dust. Lead sulfide would be much safer, although studies feeding it to rats did show elevated lead levels.

That said, no metal dust is very nice. Solid lead might be safer than tungsten powder. Maybe you could make an iodinated polymer or use a barium cement.
If you wanted to mitigate excessive atmospheric carbon, use bio carbon capture and sequestration. And where's the most logical place to do that? The ocean, as either phytoplankton or kelp or both.

Just because it was the "most common" doesn't mean much. It was still more rare in the past. Food allergies in general were more rare. It also says nothing as to how much it has grown if it is still the most common, eg. maybe it was most common being 20% of total food allergies where as now maybe that number is 50%. IDK just saying on surface this isn't much of a counter-argument.
