I’ve learned to embrace the technology as a prof. Even though in its current state it can be spotty, it’s a given it’s going to continuously improve.

AI “detectors” are not going to work in the long run. Students can easily use tech to rewrite.

Graded work will need to change. I believe a shift towards oral defense of a research topic is going to be needed, or in-person testing, or hands-on assignments where permitted.

Is the graded essay dead? Possibly.
Honestly I really tried to use the fediverse, but its not good enough.

Search is hot garbage, can't find anything useful, or what people are actually talking about, not that Twitters search is great by any measure.

Missing content when visiting external content, cuz why would anyone ever want to see or search old content.

Also most clients I have seen show replies in a really stupid way, you have to actively click to see what the person is replying to, its not visible in the timeline.

Outside of the English speaking indie-privacy-tech bubble (and germans seem to be very active on it too) its a ghost land.

In general I have been spending more time on hacker news and youtube than Twitter and fediverse, they aren't like pre-elon twitter.
It should come as no surprise that AI and no-code tools will replace all those software developers who need the task spelled out for them in detail by a manager.

I don't think you can conclude that from one patient, that's not how medicine works.

Whether to actively surveil vs treat depends on individual patient characteristics and grade (generally Gleason 7+) and the fact that you didn't have a complication does not mean they're not sufficiently high. On a population level analysis the evidence clearly support that there is no improved mortality with prostate cancer screening.
This makes me feel guilty about the atomic spies the US executed. They were labeled as modern day Judases who enabled the cold war, but really weren't much different from any other spy.
I have heard this version of events many times, but that's not how I remember it.

I remember the only international flights allowed as being the repatriation flights. (e.g. when an overseas government organised for some non-Chinese who were in Wuhan to be able to come home). And presumably the return flights for planes that would otherwise have been stranded in Wuhan.

FactCheck matches my memory...

https://www.factcheck.org/2020/05/trumps-flawed-china-travel...

Wikipedia for 23rd January says all outbound flights were banned:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_COVID-19_pande...

And anyway, there's something wrong with the whole idea: if domestic flights were banned international flights were still allowed, wouldn't the people of Wuhan who wanted to get to Beijing just fly via Bangkok or Seoul? A ban on domestic-only flights wouldn't have achieved anything.

I think that what you are saying is now obvious to every western company and they are in the process of getting out or diversifying their supply chain. If China can lock down their country for years over Covid, they are capable of anything. Invading Taiwan, even if it had repercussions would be no problem at all. I think the government is likely observing the fallout from Ukraine right now and planning how best to mitigate the western playbook. If they wait till the next US administration, one likely to be inwardly focused, they might have an even easier time.

The Civil War connection is obvious (it's explicitly referenced at several points in the movie) but my interpretation was that the Civil War was a mirror for the characters' interactions, not the other way around. To me the movie was more a commentary on various aspects of Irish society which can exacerbate problems and inhibit progress and healing - lack of communication, holding of grudges, a tendency towards self-punishment. Even though the main characters were pretty much all mad they were also oddly familiar.

I liked it more than Three Billboards, but not as much as the excellent In Bruges.
when do you think the Fed will pause/are rate cuts already being priced in a 12 month horizon?
The fed is in between a rock and a hard place. Once upon a time, asset prices were low relative to incomes - and assets people cared about day to day like housing generally weren’t terribly competitive.

The fed started rate targeting, and asset prices started rising as the economy adapted to Fed policies. 50 years later assets like homes regularly exceed individuals lifetime earning potential.

If interest rates rise, these asset prices must fall. If they fall, then someone is on the hook as a counter party. The fed bailing out the banks with more free money kicks the can down the road.

Best case scenario is a steady inflation that raises incomes closer to assets. However this inflation effects boomers, millennials, and gen z differently- there is no easy solution.

But swinging between 0 interest rates and bailouts won’t help things.

I seriously doubt this is true. Solving this problem is basically why BMI and ASCAP exist.

Where it gets tricky is that with a piece of music, there are at least 3 or 4 different elements that are separately copy written.

You have the basic tune, the specific arrangement, the physical layout and content of the sheet music, the basic copyright of a particular recording, and finally (and most relevant to your example), what are called the synch rights, which are the rights to use a song as a synchronized part of a larger work, like a movie or commercial.
> However empirically I found that the more convinced one is that they don't need advice the more badly they actually need it.

Empirically, I found the opposite. ;-)

> Objectively, if I was deciding on whether I want to be married or not

You decide that subjectively, not objectively. It's actually pretty simple: be single for a while, and see how it feels. If it sucks, then try not to be single. If it's great, then continue.

There's also the crucial matter of marriage being a mutual decision between two people, so one can't just decide to get married. I will offer some advice myself though FWIW: if you're not in love with someone, or they're not in love with you, then you probably shouldn't marry them.
In both cases it’s ok if they use it as an aid and read it before committing the copy.

But if they are using bonds which the fed has valued at face value rather than market value as collateral then this is still effectively free money.

They are only losing .1% of bond value instead of the difference between face and market value.

> 90% of why employers do that is that we functionally outlawed intelligence testing of job applicants

No, we didn’t, in fact, the ruling that is misrepresented that way has exactly as much effect on degree requirements (insofar as degree rates are also racially disparate) without evidence of job performance need as it does for IQ tests.

But, “IQ tests are functionally illegal and degree requirements with no evidentiary basis are fine” is management/HR cargo cult knowledge, which is the real issue.

Why dubious ? FFMPEG is not incorporated in the US and does not recognize software patents. All the popular codecs such as h264, h265, etc. are similar in nature.
I don't understand why people haven't thrown in the towel, it's obvious at this point that AI art by its nature solves the market for an exponentially growing percentage of the demand for artwork. There's no denying that this is a loss for humanity as we cede yet another part of our reality to machines, but at the same time trying to build elaborate tools like this is a clear waste of time since from the get go, since it doesn't change anything about the core issue.

This is the fundamental fallacy of modern social media, that expressing frustration is action. Nathan wasn't going to change, and shouldn't have to.

We do not need preachers and we certainly do not need them for something as commonly aspired to as marriage.

How out of touch can we truly be here? Marriage and having kids are two of the things universally pushed. We need solutions to the root problems leading to these "lower stats of marriage".

Becoming that person who believes he's performing altruism by telling his friends to have kids is not beneficial to anybody, and will likely prevent your relationship with them from developing any deeper than mutual transactions. Everyone KNOWS. What they do not know is whether they'll have a job tomorrow to afford their kids, whether they can overcome their upbringing to provide a healthy environment to raise their kids, etc.

So please, enough with the preaching. It might ironically be better if we had more people selling real solutions to these problems.

Sure, people don't know what they want. But the point is there won't be a need for some intermediary person between AI and the end user.

Whatever the AI prompter brings to the table will quickly be provided by the AI itself. If a user doesn't really know what they want, there isn't a scenario where the AI prompter will suss it out but the AI itself won't
I understand what you're describing, but the point I'm making is that what makes a con artist a con artist is their ability to deceive this sort of analysis. If you can fool the thing I'm emulating, you can fool my emulation, too - in fact, the better my emulation, the better the attack works.

Yeah, 10 years ago I used to love Richard Stallman and free-as-in-freedom and all that, but over the years it started to dawn on me that free software isn't really the solution to the worlds problems.... Plus, the GNU license does it in a really adversarial way. I actually have started to avoid GNU software in general, so I'm not forced to buy into this copyleft religion if I ever wanna look under the hood. I'll be the first to say Apple does some pretty messed up stuff but avoiding GNU is not one of those things. It's been 40 years. If Richard Stallman was right then we would be in a free software utopia right now.

This is severely dismissing the economic distortion of monetary stimulus. We’ve effectively been printing money into wealthy individuals assets. Increasing wealth inequality has tangible negative effects on the economy and effectively functions as a reverse tax.
> it doesn't imply some sort of unlimited obligation to create endless documents containing every word uttered by every employee 24/7. How would that even work?

We're talking about Google. This is exactly what they do. It works very well too.

Google suddenly finding in itself the will to forget information about people after lawsuits started coming? One would have to be naive to believe it's not deliberate destruction of evidence. If Google gets away with this, it only reflects poorly on the "justice" system which actually believed such shenanigans.
> It's not hard. Anyone in America with $35,000/yr is in the 1% of the world's economic strata.

That doesn't take into account the vastly different cost of living across the world. Sure, 35k USD is a lot compared to some countries, but it's barely scraping by in most US metros.

US wages have not kept pace with the increase in cost of living and goods and services for decades.

Even if folks somehow managed to save 15% of the 35k every year for 40 years (which is really hard) they're left just touching a million with a guaranteed 8% return, and that's their retirement funds. After using those funds to live for the next ~20+ years extremely modestly doesn't leave much of anything for "generational wealth".

Unless you're already in the upper 20% the best bet remaining is to help your kids get through college and hope they get a higher paying job than you. Which is increasingly difficult as the cost of education has skyrocketed compared to wages.

>Losers: University of Chicago, all the students who worked on it, all the artists who believed in it. Protip for the Glaze team: Snake oil is not a panacea for anything and prescribing it does not make you a doctor.

I don't know why you are so aggressively insulting the team who worked on this project. If someone creates an art piece and specifically asks for it to not be included in a model, then they should also have the ability to take the extra-precaution to prevent someone from including it in one. Art is by nature a social phenomenon, and so is the creation of the AI art-generating tools. In the end, technology will not "overcome" the social issue, already we are having public debates about the ethics of these technologies and how we can best use them for social benefit instead of social harm. No AI art generating algorithm could've ever been created if not for the work of countless artists which the model learned from AND the work of countless engineers who created those very models, there is an inextricable relationship between the machine output and the human labor involved, and this will not be resolved unless people are willing to work together to create something new and extraordinary. The combativeness is not helpful.
> Since when does any protest, movement, etc, need to begin by proving a negative.

To start, when they fly Confederate flags. If you do that you have to show that you're not a racist (see previous link to CTV news story).

> Any movement can be destroyed under this context whether legitimate or not as we would never know.

Yes, as discussed in Chenoweth. Which is why community/societal outreach is important with any movement that wants to effect change.

> The framing of the narrative.

Which the Convoy Truckers failed to do in their communications.

The onus is on the movement itself to properly communicate their desires and the goodness of their causes to the larger community. This communication is done not only via words and communiqués, but also by actions.
> This reads like it was written by someone cosplaying as an adult.

Not necessarily. From my understanding, in Asia the actual diploma is often used as a credential for obtaining employment. (The context is reading about a con man who set up a fake job listing to attract Western job candidates, obtained copies of applicants' diplomas, then used them to construct a fake diploma that he used to get a job for himself.)

The public health mandates that the truckers were protesting is what helped reduce COVID's effects and allowed for the reduction of the various health measures. Vaccine mandates did not end because of what the Convoy Truckers did, but despite what they did. The Convoy Truckers were working against their own interests (as the rest of the trucking industry realized).
