Sing it loud.

The web & js's success is a testament to open ecosystems, open networks. What's been happening lately is more and more trying to capture & contain value.
These are reasonable questions, and as someone who is actively running an M&A infosec due diligence effort on the acquiring side (mentioned to demonstrate I am not naive to the effort involved), I’d be interested if Amazon even asked these questions or just said “fuck it turn it off we’re done squeezing it for what it’s worth.” That last part is what I take issue with, and seeing it happen over and over is getting old.

But I suppose if you mention the word “goodwill” to Amazon proper, the closest you’ll get it someone seeing if it’s something they sell on the retail side.
The researches appear to have relied on techniques like those recently used to identify the Somerton Man, a 75-year-old cold case in Australia:

I do a lot of photography and for a brief moment I found myself taking pictures mostly because I wanted to put it on IG, I caught myself and now take less pictures, but do it for what I think is arguably a better reason...which is just creating for the sake of creating!
...showing again that the guardian is frivolous anti-intellectualism just like the daily mail. They would never name a sports player "the Caffarelli of that game".
Thank you for sharing this. I was not aware of the way these countries operated, it's a very interested way to manage this.
> My Asian girlfriend from china was denied to enter a restaurant in Moscow because of her origins...

While I'm not questioning your statement - this sound very questionable, considering the number of Chinese tourists in Moscow every year.

>It's absolutely legal to put restrict your rental apartments nationality

>I personally trying not to invest into anything Russian, simply because that society is very, very sick

Do you as a gaijin invest in anything japanese in this case? It is not uncommon to see a "gaijins are not allowed" sign in Japan either.

While it is true that Russia has (and will probably have for a long time) some racism problems (just like superiority complex) - I wouldn't say it's as bad as you think it is (especially compared to 90s for example)
The way smoke moves out of the bullets way is comical
I think enterprise offerings will be more feature rich and advanced for some time, but eventually open source alternatives will catch up especially with how Nvidia is doing amazing work to reduce the compute costs for training and deploying these models over time. I consider it similar to how a few major cloud providers are more feature rich and can scale more effectively than smaller ones, but the smaller options still exist and get better all the time.
I think the "old" internet still exists in pockets here and there if you know where to look. In particular, reddit still feels very "old internet" - and some popular fora from that era are still around as well. A lot of the "action" has certainly moved to social media and video though.

What's scary is that the social media era is marked, in my mind, by increased commercial mediation of human interactions. Social media companies inserted themselves into processes like looking for a job (LinkedIn) and dating (Tinder) then proceeded to manipulate the dynamics of these interactions for revenue generation. Once AI use becomes ubiquitous, how are AI companies going to manipulate these systems to squeeze revenues from their users? Everything in tech seems to trend towards "free and ad-supported", so will we see "positive brand messages" inserted into our writing when we ask ChatGPT for help in the future?
Well in the US a national level bailout wouldn’t be started with a direct ballot initiative. That’s not a thing at the federal level.

And I can’t speak about Switzerland but even state level ballot initiatives can be checked by the courts if they violate some other law.

CA voted to ban gay marriage via ballot initiative, their courts stuck that down.
Right below where you stopped quoting:

“Likewise, the share of the value of production on small family farms declined from 26% to 20%.”

This and other resources keep pointing out that large scale family farms which are corporations at that point are nearly half. Then non family farms are another fraction like 20%-ish. Then not all of the “families” owning the farms even farm their own land. That’s only 51% of farmers doing that full time.

So 40%+ are landlords. Adam Smith the father of capitalism and Karl Marx and Engels all believed landlords are unethical and antithetical to capitalism or any economic system.

Even if the OP was wrong, your response is similar. Can we get some specifics of the actual finances?

Otherwise this is all propaganda for the US seeming more fair and equitable than it really is. Adam Smith would be rolling in his grave.
Learn to be both like an adult. This is some lame high-school level mentality. Also, you're not nice just afraid.
Absolutely! Seems like there is a counter-effect to smokes (throwing a HE grenade), one could imagine something similar will happen with other grenades too. For example, maybe flashbangs ends up being dampened by a smoke as well, or something like that.
Oh shit, you're right, I forgot about loops. Guess I'll go uninstall copilot now.
Are your models code first or reverse engineered?

Are you relying on model conventions or spelling out everything in modelBuilder calls?
Yes because out of the millions of app submissions that happen every year, you are likely to “be banned” for some arbitrary reason that is not spelled out.

That must be why developing iOS Apps is so unpopular with developers…
You can write tests about properties you care about which may not be everything. Generally in some of the more financial applications i've written I would be ok with people rewriting the app as long as it passes the tests.

I've even written tests that say this set of input goes to this output, for various different subsets of input. Anything outside of the of the defined input sets fail validation.

Than it randomly picks a couple of thousand inputs from the input sets I've defined and runs them. More confidence you need, the more exhaustive setting you put it on.

It's a bit like QuickCheck.
I think you're right and it's generally a problem for gameplay. Real life scenarios often involve a lot of hiding and waiting. If a game becomes too realistic it starts to simulate that which leads to a boring game.
Same people who use Clickhouse or YDB at least.
So if you get found out, change environment and start being jerk again.
I think when AI gets embodied and navigates our world, we would have figured out a method to propagate ground-truth in our filter bubbles. The rest will be art and op-eds and we would know them as such since AI will label it explicitly unless we choose not to or want to suspend our disbelief.
Lack of compilation for fexprs is:

A) An exciting research problem! Shutt himself says that he doesn't see any fundamental obstacles to compiling them. It's just that nobody has done it yet.

B) Actually not a big deal for many applications. Take PicoLisp, which has been cheerfully used in customer-facing applications for decades. It's an ultra-simple interpreter (its GC is 200 LOC https://github.com/picolisp/picolisp/blob/dev/src/gc.c ) The same architecture can be used for Kernel implementations.
CS:GO already has this, it's called Danger Zone
Well the new smoke mechanics will definitely be a game changer:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_y9MpNcAitQ
The smoke effects are cool, but otherwise, it doesn't feel like the graphics are really that much better, just different. Flatter dynamic range (everything is bright now). Busier textures. Exactly the same pixely shadows (most visible in the screenshot "Back Plat"), which makes me think the engine hasn't been modernized that much.
Do you know that Ubuntu's number one issue in their bug tracker is "Microsoft has a monopoly on the desktop market"?

Plenty of people have to use Windows at work, it doesn't mean that MacOS (or Ubuntu) is a failure, or that they lack focus, or that this would change if alternatives just went to implement what you need.

The truth is that Google has built a formidable moat around their browser, and even if Mozilla put it as their one mission to catch up, they wouldn't be able to. Also, the first second that Firefox became a credible threat to Google would be the time that Google would drop all the money that they put into Mozilla.

That's not normal behavior (these days, anyway!) A lot of users are able to go months without kernel panics, especially on certain kinds of older hardware.

Did you report any of these panics?
I love your value proposition. But dude, your web design is worst than acceptable. I’m a senior ux designer and I’d know what to do to fix that for you.
While I mostly agree, I think the bar has been raised on how easy it is to make believeable fake proof. We now have AI generated images that can reasonably pass the smell test.

I’m a fan of Dapper for doing the tedious mapping and result set handling stuff but still sticking to SQL. I don’t really find writing LINQ instead of simple SQL queries is much of a time saver.
I understand that; the problem is that it makes it so easy to bypass the safety net the warning is intended to provide. For example, not logging an exception; You'd have to be really intentional to block the warning with an actual annotation, but using an underscore would be so easy you'd just fall into a pattern of always commenting those out. It's better to have a line of code screaming "I'm doing something that looks wrong here but really it's okay" instead of "_".

You sweet summer child. CSGO is INSANELY profitable. Valve makes free money on every single cosmetic purchase, and takes a cut of EVER COSMETIC 2ND HAND MARKET SALE OR TRADE.
if starcraft/starcraft 2 is any indication of what might occur, they'll just be treated as two completely different games.
> I’d say Apple’s only failed in the way everyone did—-failure to foresee and the potential impact of generative AI.

This is so true that now the only differentiating capability is execution, and I'd say that Microsoft is excelling here in an unexpected way.
It was also a much more pure game back then - there were no cosmetic items (besides free skins you installed yourself from people doing them for free - some of which were insanely high quality and others were just insanely ugly but also hilarious). There were no achievements. It was just skill and gameplay.
Thanks! Not yet, but added to the feature requests list!

There is massive value in this.
What fantasy works are you referring to? Whatever you have in mind, I can guarantee you it has more real-world political inspiration than you think. You can ignore it (and maybe even the author denies it like Tolkien) but our physical world and experiences is what defines the fantasy we write. It shapes our understanding of power and character, which is why fantastical stories vary so wildly in different contexts.

This doesn't even strike me as activism, unless you're uncomfortable with looking at a Dodo illustration in your D&D campaign. This is a book with extra monster ideas, some of which are inspired by animals you will never see. Even devoid of empathetic value towards those dead animals, you gotta admit it's pretty metal to fight an animal that doesn't exist... anymore.
Yes, exactly, I came to the same realisation that was an appropriate label and made an edit to describe it as such. In fact comparing it to FIFO as you have makes even more sense so I've edited it again.

Surface reflections are FIFO, because there is no medium, no "storage"; This novel medium based reflection is LIFO, based upon whatever is traversing the medium at the time of the change to the medium.

It's not magic, but it's an interesting way to achieve this in pure photonics, without first converting to something more manageable like electronics... it also doesn't require discrete memory like electronics, it's kind of analogue processing but with a buffer? but can only support analogue processing.
This guy is talking his book. The hydrogen market is 180 billion dollars a year and it will grow. Making that hydrogen from methane is not an environmentally sound process. In the future hydrogen will be made from excess intermittent renewables and it will not only be cheaper than hydrogen produced today but dramatically reduce the environmental burden of the hydrogen industry. It's easy to poke holes in the hydrogen story today but all you need to do is project the current growth of solar and wind into the future and the amount of excess generation capacity that entails to understand the case for green hydrogen. In 10 to 20 years, when the sun is out we will have 3x the electricity we need, that excess electricity will be used in part to generate megatons of hydrogen. It's inevitable.
I don’t think these categories apply, because AI output is becoming actually indistinguishable from human utterances (which is their goal).

They said they were waiting for the native x86 compilers before opening the x86 hobbyist programs - which were just released (to paying customers) as a field test on Mar 15 - https://vmssoftware.com/about/news/2023-03-15-compilers-fiel... - so hopefully there will be an x86 hobbyist announcement in the next few days/weeks
> The process certifies a base standard of knowledge.

It'd be great to have CS and software engineering board tests that can be taken once and then do away with all the interview nonsense like other professional fields.
This exactly. CS has a ton of established theory built in. Some of these changes are kinda equivalent to "pawns can take in front of them" level of disruptive to the established understanding/meta.
GPT-4 beats ChatGPT by over 30 points on Medical Challenge Problems
"We present a comprehensive evaluation of GPT-4, a state-of-the-art LLM, on medical competency examinations and benchmark datasets. GPT-4 is a general-purpose model that is not specialized for medical problems through training or engineered to solve clinical tasks...results show that GPT-4, without any specialized prompt crafting, exceeds the passing score on USMLE by over 20 points and outperforms earlier general-purpose models (GPT-3.5) as well as models specifically fine-tuned on medical knowledge (Med-PaLM, a prompt-tuned version of Flan-PaLM 540B). In addition, GPT-4 is significantly better calibrated than GPT-3.5, demonstrating a much-improved ability to predict the likelihood that its answers are correct."
The thing that always killed me about CS:GO was the lack of mods and custom maps. They exist, sure - but not in the amount and creativity that was available for CS:Source or CS 1.5 and 1.6

CS started as a mod so it only makes sense to have tons of cool custom maps
That would hardly be a bad thing in my opinion, given that Fortnite looks fantastic

> Amiga is still in production, their new computer that is currently in beta testing looks pretty good

The Amiga "Tabor" or "A1222" is a very, very silly machine. Because they insist on PowerPC even though that's basically a long dead architecture, the best available CPU for it was the QorIQ P1022 a SOC designed to be inside say a mid-range Ethernet switch a decade ago.

In the event they actually ship a product in some sort of volume (say, dozens) before NXP discontinue the processors altogether this would be far worse than a PC or Mac you could have bought in 2015 when it was conceived, and yet also far more expensive, very silly.
Valorant, CS:GO, Apex are the most streamed FPS according to https://gamesight.io/leaderboards/fps-games.

As a Garry's Mod veteran, S&Box looks like something entirely different. Although Garry says it's a kind of sequel, it doesn't look like it is. It's more like a meta game engine. Or metaverse (god I hate that word.) I don't expect it to be a hit sadly.
Well perhaps March 21st. Carrot seems not to be working withe Dark Sky now but does with other sources.

In the UK the DarkSky source data also appears better.

Unfortunately the MetOffce app is not good.
Sorry I don’t mean to be following you. I have been trying to find a way to actually agree with you on something.

I found it! We are both absolutely rigid when it comes to reificationism. We happened to move to different sides of the political spectrum is all. It’s fascinating to me. I was a normal person not knowing politics 1.5 years ago. I got radicalized mostly in 2022 to the left.

Thanks for teaching me that word and amazingly I not only whole heartedly agree with everything you’re saying. I’m interested in your insights. Sorry if I behaved rudely to you in other comments. Im autistic and I forget to be an empathic person sometimes.
I can’t read that, but one of the unique features of the “standard” US 30-year fixed rate mortgage is that there’s no penalty for early payoff. As a result, it’s easy to refinance when rates go down, which is almost certain to occur during the 30-year period. This capability is priced in to the rate.

Testing best practices have the opposite philosophy for the most part. Avoid abstraction as much as possible. Do repeat yourself. Because a bug in tests is insidious, so you want to minimize that. One of the best ways to minimize bugs is to explicitly avoid abstraction.
I've done embedded programming, but I just don't enjoy it. It's far too in the weeds for the type of simple tasks I want to do around my house. Every time I start with Arduino, I realize that I'm simply not having fun.

And what does Firefox integrate with? Your Mozilla account? All of these companies have both an identity service (Google accounts/live.com) and a shit load of services (office365/gsuite). What does Firefox offer? Automatic login to more Google properties so companies can continue mandating Chrome, because Google will regularly fuck over Mozilla?

All the big browser players have more than just a browser. It's a gateway to _their_ services. Firefox users on this site shriek at fucking _Pocket_ and all seem to think that all you need to do is to build a better browser.

If that was true, IE6 would never have been in the dominant position it was. If that was true, Chrome would no longer be in the dominant position it is. The only thing that matters is how much you blast users with ads and force them in your ecosystem. Mozilla has none of that.
"We found material weaknesses in our reporting, with a result that we cannot issue our annual report as scheduled" does not sound like "complied with all the regulations".

Well, technically, three flat stones. Two flat-appearing stones can match (like two stacked Pringles chips) and still not be flat and thus not match a third true flat reference. Thus:

"When two plates are not flat but still match, one will not match the third. By continually lapping or scraping the high points of their contact until all three show perfect bearing when intercompared, three flat planes are created" [1]

Is CoD and BF really more popular than CS? Hard to find numbers for CoD and BF, but CSGO currently have 1,000,000 online players right now, ~0.5 million viewers on Twitch. CoD Warzone + CoD MW 2 has ~50k viewers on Twitch, but unable to find number of online players, but I cannot imagine it being 1 million if there is only 50k viewers on Twitch.
See these graphs from Pew Research.[1]

"Encounters (Border Patrol/ICE) soared in fiscal 2021 for some countries that have not historically been common sources of migration at the U.S.-Mexico border. The number of encounters involving people from Ecuador, for example, increased more than eightfold, from 11,861 in fiscal 2020 to 95,692 in fiscal 2021. There were also stark increases in encounters involving people from Brazil (from 6,946 to 56,735), Nicaragua (from 2,123 to 49,841), Venezuela (from 1,227 to 47,752), Haiti (from 4,395 to 45,532) and Cuba (from 9,822 to 38,139)."

Some of that is political, but those are all different countries. All are near the equator.

It seems “Codepilot” is being used as a general name for a coding focused language model. A more literal interpretation of the title suggests you can host Microsoft’s model yourself, which does not seem to be the case (unsurprisingly).

I guess I’m just surprised to see it used this way but “coding focused language model” doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue.

Oh yeah, these species are going to be hunted to extinction over and over again in D&D campaigns. Maybe some players will then resurrect them all to have the pleasure of hunting them to extinction again. D&D players do horrible things in fantasy land.

The question was about a Cupertino homeowner vs what that corresponding homeowner would see in Austin. You're linking an article about the median Californian vs median Texan, which -- even accepting its assumptions -- is only superficially relevant, and very unrepresentative for the comparison under discussion.

Even at the lower rate, the property taxes on the Cupertino house alone dwarf any tax difference they would pay for a comparable lifestyle in Austin [1].

To be blunt, but it looks like you deliberately chose a misleading comparison to push the narrative you already settled on. That's below the standard I've come to expect of your comments.

[1] Here's a $3.2m Cupertino home, which shows $40k/year in property taxes. A comparable home in Austin for the $700k the parent mentioned would have ~$14k/year in property taxes. https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/21467-Krzi...

So, paying the $2.5 million ... to pay $26k/year more just in property taxes.
Practically, long form content involves people. Can people tell on a sentence by sentence level what was written by humans and what by AI?
