So frustrating still so many limitations with using a Google Workplace account, even if it's a single user account. With any other company product it doesn't matter that one is using a Google Workplace email but when using Google Home (and trying to invite non workplace users or vice versa) no go, or other products that simply say no go or with limitations.
i don't understand the hate towards ad tech that learns about you. the alternative is ads that are completely irrelevant to you, ads that treat you like some anonymous user in which case you'll get endlessly irrelevant ads for mainstream stuff like ICE cars, plastic garbage, big screen tvs, fast food, etc.
Not really, no. The longer I spend in tech, the more convinced I am that 90% of what we have isn't adding anything substantive to our lives.

I don't hope that it fails. I just don't trust them with new services because they have a bad history of killing everything that's not generating billions. So probably I won't even bother using it, unless it blows ChatGPT out of the water.
What’s striking about this bailout is that this is explicitly what the Swiss said they wouldn’t do. CS should have been forced to break into a healthy banking business and and bankrupt investment business but of course that’s not really possible so they get to take tons of public money anyway.

Announcing Luma AR!
Will any of these meaningfully enhance gameplay? Sure, there could be more features, but what is the marginal utility? I think people assume more immersive, more expansive is better for games, but I'm not sure this is the case.
Starting today, you can teleport back into your memories like you were there again. Reshoot to create natural camera moves in captured worlds, again and again, all from your iPhone! Capture. NeRF. AR. Just like that!

Here's me wondering how many more years will pass before the Wayland support is going GA.
In my position productivity can be safely measured by total number of hours spent on the tickets every sprint. I'm most focused on stories and tasks but we also log spikes as researches.
Because the browser has become a vendor neutral, architecture neutral app engine and people want to do things like play MIDI instruments, use serial ports, use proprietary USB check scanners for accounting/ERP apps that work on the web and don't need SCCM to manage, etc.
No it wasn't?
I didn’t say it wasn’t. Just naive to pretend it is intended as purely informational.
I am guessing it's about the desire to offer a higher standard of stuff to paid customers (since they may be expecting such and paying for it.)

Bard is completely beta and a raw one at that, not something I'd want confused for a part of a paid offering at this stage.

I get your point as well - I think there's a tension between the two options.
I was always frustrated by the lack of intermediate database content, it seemed like it was mostly intro stuff, or straight to DBA level. So I read as many database books as I could, read through the official docs, and made this course specifically for application developers.
There is another line of work for efficient Transformers that wasn't mentioned in the paper, i.e., Adaptive Computation on the sequence level, which pools similar tokens which are easy to predict, therefore reducing the complexity of a Transformer layer. Examples [#1](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2211.09761.pdf) [#2](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2103.06874.pdf) [#3](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2110.13711.pdf).
So basically a wrapper for Dalle. More than the image thing the screenshots of "improved Bing" when you scroll to the bottom just look atrocious.
Amazing, same as the chatGPT effect - seeing these images in papers is one thing. But having an interface where you can try it and realise that the paper examples weren't cherry-picked and the technology really is that good is something else.

The most popular theory for the North Stream sabotage is that the US did it, so there is that.
AI queries are way more computationally intensive than traditional searches.

Bard is probably not optimized and would completely overload the hardware Google has available for it should it be released worldwide.

That just shows how far ahead Microsoft is on that one.
Tired of waitlists. You and Bing and everyone else will have to get on my waitlist of services I give attention to.
Buy an OBDeleven or VCDS if you own a VW and are doing any work on it yourself.

You can also adjust features (roll up windows with remote, etc). Run diagnostics in real time while driving, test every switch/sensor on the car.
Also, it is needed if you do a brake job on the rear brakes to open/close the parking brake so you can put the pads in.

I don't believe you need to recode the battery if you replace with the exact same battery but you need to change it if you don't put in the OEM one [1]

Yeah we don't have the source code. But with long coding adaptations in the system you can do a large portion of what you need to do (engine/trans swaps). If going deeper is needed there are companies who reflash/recode ECUs but that is about as deep as you can go without doing independent module hacking.

Non-US countries like to fine US tech companies and create regulations ect. which we are already seeing in the EU wrt AI. So it makes sense why they don't want to be involved in that kind of thing before there is even a real product. That is, there is no upside for them aside from market share, which I agree is important but does not alone explain Google's product failures, about which much has already been written.

This is BS to sell you inflation as "not being that bad".

Inflation is just a tax, a way to tax the poor.

Real Estate, stock, bonds and goods will, in aggregate, go up.

Sure, the distribution is going to be uneven but I wouldn't say "prices of goods are not going up" and then complain you can't afford a house.

I mean, stealing the answers (or even just the questions) would be cheating, of course stolen answers would make it a lot easier for a human to pass too. Nobody is surprised that if you cheat then the exam is no longer a good proxy measure for professional competency! Nobody expects or intends it to be a good proxy measure for those who have stolen the questions.

I actually doubt you could write software to pass the bar exam with "a bunch of regexes that have an associated formattable string and/or answer result." I'm not even sure what that means, but I suspect you aren't familiar with bar exams. They are very hard for humans that are in fact familiar with the material; they can contain "trick" questions and require thinking about edge cases, etc. They generally include both essay questions and multiple-choice -- and it can be very tricky multiple choice.

Here's just one of the first samples I found googling, I have trouble imagining "regexes with associated answers" doing anything useful here: https://barexam.virginia.gov/pdf/essays/2022%20February%20VA...

I love your last observation. Reminds me of:

Melville's meditations on the anatomy of the whale are absolutely stunning, especially when you add layers of meaning to what "the whale" may represent (God, justice or injustice, morality, nature, etc etc...)
First of all, studies by who?

Cui bono is definitely at play here.

Secondly, it doesn’t matter where the “wealth” is stored unless it’s sitting in someone’s basement like Scrooge McDuck[0]. The money gets out into the economy through loans and businesses doing business causing prices to rise because there’s more money chasing the same amount of goods.

This doesn't make any sense, because sperm oil was known for its low temperature advantages. Not its high temperature ones.

Even in 1975 the problem cited was corrosion:

https://www.nytimes.com/1975/04/17/archives/transmission-pro...

"The fittings between the cooling unit and the radiator gave no trouble when whale oil was the fluid, but the substitute allowed the fittings to corrode. "

The resulting corrosion allowed mixing of oil and coolant. Causing issues in both, although the transmission is going to be the first to have problems.

I will also point at the idea that the lack of sperm oil caused this is....stupid. The way you avoid this entire problem is by using a device called an oil cooler. It's a separate finned radiator from the coolant radiator. If it leaks you get a little pinhole leak. Then you replace it & topoff the fluid. Automotive manufacturers insist on using combined units because they are being cheap and don't care about the long term practicality of a vehicle. So even if there was some amazing advantage to sperm oil, it neither prevented this specific problem nor did the ban on it cause it.
Clubhouse was even more stupid by launching iOS only which killed themself.
> I would prefer to have HKTs and typeclasses, so I may implement my own IO monad.

I'm not a Java developer, and I haven't even read about higher kinded types or typeclasses (the theory side of programming is my weakness); but you picked my curiosity with this.

Can you elaborate how concurrency done this way would look in Java?
just use english language then?
I liked the app but wouldn't use it for professional profile pictures since it generally gets facial features (particularly eyes) wrong. However, it helped me discover interesting dress styles that work with my face, which could be another potential use for this technology. I think exploring 250 or so clothing styles in a few minutes would be very interesting.

I'd appreciate it if the app allowed users to input height/weight for accuracy, didn't generate very high contrast images for some styles (like the hacker), and let users add training data to their profile over time. Finally, producing 20 images of each style in one go might not be very cost-effective on your side. I think the Dall-E and Midjourney approach where they generate one image and let you generate more variations could make this more economical for you.

If it's commodity, then it's traded on futures. Distributors would sell to retailers who shape consumer-facing pricing to maintain stability. Essentially, Home Depot sells out, looks to their supplier/distributor who says it'll be a few weeks to get enough to meet demand, commodity prices jump as demand increases for short term supply and Home Depot raises their prices.

This is a fabricated sequence of events. It's the SEC/CME/FTC, etc's job to verify the following in this example:
1. Did Home Depot raise their prices _more_ than was necessary to respond to increasing consumer demand and decrease supply?
2. Did the suppliers stockpile or falsely report their availability to result in over charging?
3. Did pricing between sawmills/loggers and suppliers increases proportionally? Did pricing between retail and suppliers increase proportionally?

These questions will help to understand possible unnatural inflation was introduced. In the sequence of events the sawmill behavior is just a single indicator along the way.
This idea that corporate criticism is off limits simply because the corporation has the legal right to make product decisions is one of the weirdest things I regularly see. No one is claiming that they don't have a legal right to do this. Yeah, it's their product and their choice.

But you're on a website with founders and tech workers. Part of what we do here is talk about why things work, why they don't, and ways to improve. There's nothing wrong with criticizing our industry or pointing out when one of the big companies regularly shoots itself in the foot.
This is well done! I can see that you've done your research: you've synthesized so much of the written material on MySQL (books, docs) in each lesson. Makes learning these concepts really accessible.
I just got access to Bard, and this is what Bard says.

Where does the word bard come from?

> The word "bard" comes from the Old Celtic word "bardo-," which means "poet" or "singer." It is thought to be derived from the Proto-Indo-European root "gʷerH-," which means "to praise." The word was originally used to refer to the professional poets and singers of the Celtic cultures, who were responsible for composing and reciting oral traditions, such as epics, genealogies, and songs. The word "bard" came to be used more generally to refer to any poet or singer in the 16th century.

Draft 2:

> The word bard comes from the Old Celtic word "bardos" which means "poet-singer". It was first used in English in the 16th century. The Old Celtic word "bardos" is thought to be derived from the Proto-Indo-European word "gʷerH-" which means "to praise".

Draft 3 (Including a source: Wikipedia):

> The word bard comes from the Celtic languages: Gaulish: bardo- ('bard, poet'), Middle Irish: bard and Scottish Gaelic: bàrd ('bard, poet'), Middle Welsh: bardd ('singer, poet'), Middle Breton: barz ('minstrel'), Old Cornish: barth ('jester'). The ancient Gaulish *bardos is attested as bardus (sing.) in Latin and as bárdoi (plur.) in Ancient Greek.

The word bard originally referred to a Celtic poet-singer, but it has come to mean more generally a poet or singer. It is especially associated with the early Celtic cultures of Ireland and Wales, where the bards were highly respected members of society. They were responsible for composing and reciting poems, songs, and stories, and they often played an important role in preserving the oral traditions of their people.

The word bard is still used today to refer to a poet or singer, and it is also used in the names of several fictional characters, such as the Bard of Avon (William Shakespeare) and the Bard of the Highlands (Robbie Burns).

Exactly. Economics likes to pretend it is a hard science because it has mathematics and formulas and hard numbers, but it's not. It is much closer with a social science, where work has either big assumptions or is much closer to a study about the market's behavior. But because economics has masqueraded as a science, we expect it to be more exact than it really is, and I think that dissonance can be quite impactful to how we see the fed as it tries to make decisions at times like this.

If you study a closed source compiler (or whatever) in order to write a competitive product, and the company who wrote the original product sues you for copying it, as the parent suggests, you're on shaky legal ground. Which is why clean room design is a thing.
>On balance was it good? It's an open question.

No, it isn't an open question. The United States dragged the world into a war based on lies and false pretenses. It invaded and destroyed a sovereign state, allowing museums and priceless cultural artifacts to be looted and burned, murdered millions of people - Iraqis and allies - and left a broken country to the depredations of the insurgent forces their own ham-fisted belligerance created.

And no one knows why. It wasn't because of WMD, that was bullshit. Not because Iraqi intelligence had a hand in 9/11. Not yellowcake from Africa. All lies. Not even for the oil. We didn't even take the fucking oil. Why? Because the neocons already had plans to Christianize and democratize the Middle East? Because Bush wanted to cement his family's legacy? Because Afghanistan wasn't big enough to satisfy American bloodlust against Muslims post 9/11?

It was evil. Unqualified evil. Absolute evil. Evil that will have the United States mentioned in the same breath as Nazi Germany for the next hundred years.

Show HN: Rosetta, a science platform for intensive and interactive data analysis
Rosetta is a "science platform" that aims at making it easier to run interactive, resource-intensive data analysis tasks.

It basically allows to run software containers with Jupyter Notebooks and virtual desktops on remote computing resources, let it be a single powerful server on AWS or an HPC cluster managed with a queuing system. Using software containers greatly improves reproducibility and significantly cuts down the time required to setup new software and libraries.

One of its main benefits, besides using software containers, is that it can be integrated with existent infrastructure at user-level. Usually, an SSH account on the computing resource and a pre-installed container engine (Docker, Podman, Singularity/Apptainer) are the only requirements.

Rosetta ships "batteries included" under the Apache 2 open source licence, and as linked in the paper it can be found here: https://www.ict.inaf.it/gitlab/exact/Rosetta/.
One step further, they already have a huge training set. Stock libraries have the luxury of the hard part already being done: labeling. As of today, that's >313M labeled images they can use with no fear of legal woes: https://stock.adobe.com/search/images?filters%5Bcontent_type...

Stable Diffusion was trained on billions of images, of course. But having explored some of LAION-2B, it's clear that Adobe Stock has far better source images and labels.
Why do you assume the taliban killed his family? if they go around killing family of people that do bombings for them they aren't going to find many people willing in the future. I know nothing of afghanistan but where I'm from (latin america) the US has a long history of training paramilitaries and death squads. My guess just based on that story would be US or Georgian connected paramilitary group killing his family as retribution for killing one of their own, and as a message to scare future people from working with the taliban.

It's not as simple as that. What if it infeasible to remove the GPL code from your product and are unwilling to withdraw your product. It could be argued that compensation would be unacceptable, inadequate and impractical given hundreds of anonymous contributors writing software on an ideological, rather than financial basis. Why would being forced to share your code be taken off the table in that case? I could see the court finding that it would be the only equitable remedy.
My theory is it's harder to be critical of meaningless projects and align on what's meaningful when remote.
Don't worry, someone will still manage put in a bug that results in a zero day in the next 2 years.

Yeah, because my house is more valuable than yours, as exemplified by the fact that it costs more money to buy lumber for it, so it can create more value. Clearly I'm a more valuable human than you (because I've got more money), and I deserve better and more valuable house.
