Searching for "antipyretic prolong pubmed" turns up some good trailheads. Seems like consensus is that fever is likely beneficial and routine suppression is probably not supported by evidence. There's conflicting data on whether suppressing fever delays recovery.

Besides climate, there is one point about EV/ICE that never gets discussed: for decades now, we are polluting our environment with ICE emissions, in some places to unbearable levels. Why is this still allowed? I would have expected to make it mandatory to require an electric engine to every new car since hybrid technology became available, if not for anything else but having those cars capable of doing at least the urban stop-and-go without the stink.

Looks like we became so used to poison each other's breathing air that we don't even question it any more, we think it's some kind of inherited right we have. But guess what - I am also not supposed to throw the content of my potty out of the window anymore - nowadays that's not only unacceptable behavior, but outright forbidden. Because better technology became available to solve the problem.

This changes nothing from already bad peer review. Actually it might be easier to get the editor to stop using that reviewer if you can prove the use of chatgpt. Opposed to the more standard "this work fails to cite my prior work and should totally give me a shout if I'm to accept the paper".
One of the benefits of questions that this article did not seem to cover is that it helps one avoid solutionising. "How can we help our users feel less frustrated with our service?" inherently gives you more alternative courses of action than "we gotta optimise page load time of the checkout function".

Sometimes the question leads to the first solution that came to mind, but the technique is at its most valuable when it does not. Maybe the checkout page load time isn't as bad as the dark patterns and getting rid of them improves user flow more at a lower cost than rewriting a critical component.
It doesn't take much imagination to realise that an AI generated echo chamber will be far more capable than a human echo chamber; a vicious unvirtuous circle.

Netflix and other tech stocks did not lose their value over decades, it happened over the course of months. But yes, market volatility is a thing for stocks as well as bitcoin. They're the same in that regard.

"Bitcoin to zero" is a matter of faith at this point, I don't see it happening and I haven't heard anyone explain a good model for how it happens. US is certainly trying its best to outlaw it. Still won't go to zero.

I think my larger point is if the government wants to go after something, go after fraud--in crypto or "Fintech" or banks or stocks or whatever. And mostly they are! But then they're also leaning on banks to cut off the ability to convert crypto to fiat and that's a bunch of bullshit.
Having seen how superficial many reviews I got appear to be I wonder if it‘s not an improvement regardless.
I have played around with ChatGPT and noticed that it "invents" papers and references. But yeah, I feel like it is unlikely (not impossible) that a peer reviewer would actually not even check the outputs.

I've seen people use ChatGPT to make investment decisions. "AI says that $X is about to squeeze" or "AI says the market is going to crash on X". A huge lack of knowledge as well as an overconfidence about what this tech /actually/ is.

This is going to be disruptive in the worst possible way.
The world would be better if Android used sandboxes that actually provided strong isolation, i.e. if they didn't use Linux as kernel.

Maybe Android on Fuchsia will be a thing someday. The Android runtime is already ported, thus the likeliness is high.
Given how awful all these systems are, that might be an improvement
Is it so impressive that the “fart left the butt” ? :)
I had lately an VW Golf as rental car. The car itself, was yes, ok. But the touch interface. What did they think?!? It was f.. bright and no way to make it darker, because it was already in the darkest mode. It was so annoying at night. And when the heating was on, after a while the touch screen had trouble to feel the touch. And just bellow the touch screen, there had been so modern clickless touch buttons. Often when you clicked something on the touch screen bottom, you accidently activated also a button from below the screen. Symbols on the map are often to small for fingers (while driving anyway). I mean, it's 2023 and we know how to do such things. Who does such things test and accept?
I think you missed the word "tricks" in there.

Battery is not even half of the problem of EV. How to charge them in minutes is the biggest problem, and no viable solution anytime soon.
it only matters to the inpatient among us, give it a few weeks and things will only get better. The pace of ai innovation is frightening but exciting too.
There is no need to insert a “we” group here. The user isn’t interested that it is “our” server. The user doesn’t think in terms of there being people behind the service. He/she is using the service, period. Introducing a group of other people only sets up an inappropriate social dynamics. It feels like the developers are self-inserting themselves into an interaction that is really only between the user and the service.

Imagine you are using a ticket machine at the train station, the machine happens to malfunction, and it displays “sorry, our ticket machine is broken”. That is just weird, because the user is only interacting with the ticket machine, not with people operating the machine. It’s not like you’re at the restaurant and the waiter is saying “sorry, our credit card terminal is broken” (which would be an appropriate situation to say something like that). Rather, the ticket machine should display something along the lines of “System malfunction, please retry after pressing the red button. Apologies for the inconvenience.” And similar in the case of a server software.
Current Teslas will get you 50% charge in half an hour. Is adding 25 mins to your 5 hour journey really that big a deal?
Well, at least it's (slightly) more than a dumb terminal, as it's actually running the TCP stack and json parsing on the machine.

I'm slightly over-saturated with old PC's being reduced to dumb terminals :)

I wonder what it'd take to actually do the modern HTTPS stuff on it, sure it'd be a very slow experience :P

AI Labs Urged to Pump the Brakes in Open Letter
> What happens there is a secret, protected by medical secrecy

No, it isn't.

My father is (redaction: was) a doctor, there is no secret about it, medical records are not secret, they are public records kept forever in public medical archives.

They are private though, to access them you need an authorization and a reason (of course).

Unless it's dictated by the law that some medical records must be kept secret: one example is being HIV positive.

> And whatever you're assuming to happen might not necessarily happen there

You're actually on the right track, but still confuse the two terms.

So I'll make it easier for you: privacy is consensual secrecy is not.

That's the real difference.

You in fact have a “right to privacy” because other people must respect it, but not equivalent “right to secrecy”, you can be asked to reveal a secret by authorities, while they can't (shouldn't) violate your privacy.

It is the plot of the last South Park episode, where the children didn't want to do their essays, so they cheated using chatGPT and their teacher didn't want to grade their work either and used chatGPT (more like wanted to, we didn't actually see it in the episode) to grade them.
No, it's not due to brexit and policies associated with the right, such as more controlled immigration.

I love the size of that case. I've been looking for a tiny case that can fit a GPU. This doesn't look like that though. It doesn't have to fit the largest GPU - I'd be happy if it can fit a gtx 3060. Does anyone have recommendations?

This[1] is the closest I could find and it fits a 4090. But it's still biggish and costs $280, which is a bit too much to spend on a case.

It's also possible that Win7/8 users won't even notice and continue to use it, and receive updates. I don't think the Steam client has separate builds for different Windows versions, dropping support can mean many things.

- Blocking access from Win7/8 entirely, for any installed version of the client on Win7/8.

- Staying on last client version which may or may not continue to work with the server.

- Losing the ability to receive oncall customer support if the software is not working properly, but continuing to get updates that may or may not work with your old system, and maybe slowly losing features, including potential security issues.

I'm still using my Google Pixel 3 phone, Google has dropped support in oct 22, so no new Android versions or security updates for me, but it runs fine and I'm not planning to replace it anytime soon. If it breaks or leaks my data, I won't complain to anyone. Of course, client-server software is an entirely different thing, but you get the idea.

End of support notices are always incredibly vague, because the software vendors don't want to make customers who won't upgrade their devices angry without a valid reason, so often they won't cut access if there's no big security issue, but they also don't want to tell everyone that it's still probably ok to continue using the old versions, because moving on brings performance improvements which are good for users and maintaining old software becomes increasingly difficult over time.

According to his Wikipedia page, Marshall Hodgson (sp) introduced "Islamicate" to describe non-religious aspects of a predominantly Islamic culture. I'm here following Bernard Lewis in using the Hellenistic/Arabic distinction to cover the situation in the Near East where communities of Jews, Christians, Muslims, etc. transitioned from publishing in Greek to Arabic, without otherwise changing their cultural identities. Greek and Arabic were the languages of publication, not daily conversation in academies. The bulk of scientific writing in the early Islamic era came from Jewish and Christian academies, so historians being careful about terminology shy away from calling it "Islamic".

I'm also writing a processor module, and reading this is a bit encouraging to eventually write about it once it's finished.

Getting off the ground wasn't the hardest part so far. You can just pick the skeleton module that already comes with Ghidra, then lookup some existing simpler modules like the one for z80 to figure out how instructions are put together. You also have the script `DebugSleighInstructionParse` to check how bits are being decoded, very useful when you screw up some instruction definitions.

Unfortunately, you bump into a lot of jargon heavy error messages. The first time you hear about "Interior ellipsis in pattern", you sure have no idea what's that about. Now repeat that experience for several messages.

Then the hardest challenge is how to even test the module outside of some quick disassemblies. There's `pcodetest` but the setup is cumbersome and it seems more about validating instruction decoding rather than semantics. I might just write my own validation using pcode emulation and compare the register state against another emulator's instruction trace...
(Author here) I want to quote from my article:

"Writing a Java profiler in 240 lines of pure Java is possible and the resulting profiler could even be used to analyze performance problems. This profiler is not designed to replace real profilers like async-profiler, but it demystifies the inner workings of simple profilers."

And you'll find a large disclaimer on top of the article explaining the safepoint-bias and linking to relevant blog posts by other people on this topic.

Please don't use this profiler in production, but you use it to further your knowledge of profilers.

> The correct way is to employ asynchronous stack probing like async profiler or any other modern profiler does.

Guess what my other articles on my blog are about :) But as you'll see, using the asynchronous APIs is far harder and requires knowledge on POSIX signals, C programming and more that many Java developers do not have.
People are already a blackbox algorithm (to some degree). I think if there was personal accountability and an appeals process (which there needs to be to deal with human shittiness anyway), then it makes no difference right?

The key thing is that if the domain is appropriately fuzzy, and a human vs non-human decision is indistinguishable, then it shouldn’t matter. If it isn’t, then you don’t really need the AI.

I think the key thing here is that people should not be able to blame the AI for bad decisions. Responsibility should be on whoever decided to delegate the decision.

IMHO, anything touched by IA will be considered as a repulsive taint real quick. It has already happened in most concerned circles (artists).

Using the statement «IA not used here» will be common, people will be held up to those word, and liars will found themselves under a vehement vindication.
Please, train your model on some texts about copyright, licenses, open source licenses, GPL, because it produces nonsense.

1) GPL license is not an engine. It cannot run anything.

2) A product, produced by a code or machine or mechanically, is not copyrightable at all, or it has license of it original source. You can create GPL products on MS Windows using MS compiler. You can create proprietary products on Linux using GNU compiler.

A binary output of a program, produced by a compiler such as GCC, is the derivative from it source code, so it has the same license as the source code. The compiler just transforms the text source file into the binary output file.

For AI, the situation is the same: AI engine transforms a source data set into a binary file with weights, so binary weights is the derivative from source data set, thus its license is the same as in the original source set.

When AI engine runs weights, it transforms an input query into output using also data from the source data set, thus creating a product with mixed content, which must obey licenses from both sources.
And as we know this system has been working perfectly.
You can try holding a tournament with it vs other models if you can think of a game for them to play.
This is unfortunate.

This level of NLU is no where near where it needs to be to allow such an application.

You can play along with feeding any decent length open novel into GPT-x, and then tossing SAT-like reading comprehension questions at it.

It is interesting to see where it fails.

I don't think that OpenAI is denying this either.

The future is bright, but cheaters are going to find rough waters alongside failing mimicry.
Messaging layer security: Secure and usable end-to-end encryption
I'm a physicist and would be beyond thrilled to talk with Richard Feynman in my living room, it feels like VR only solves the "in my living room" part of the equation. I would fully appreciate just having a video call with Prof. Feynman (that's how I speak to most living physicists I know). Is this tech actually out there?

The closest I've seen is tech that would put his face and voice over the answers that come from chat GPT. Again, with no respect to the late professor, but his appearance is again the least interesting part "talk with Rchiard Feynman" is his appearance and voice. If I could get his help on some of my research, I wouldn't care if he looked like a blob fish and had the voice of Foghorn Leghorn. On the other hand, if I'm just getting ChatGPT answers, then there's no reason not to just make it look like the Crypt Keeper.
Just yesterday, I asked it a question about whether a certain company said something specifically and first it said no. Then I asked it if the company said that in its SEC filings and then it said yes. Then I pointed out to it that it’s answer contradicts its previous answer and it apologized. Then I asked it for a link to the sec filing and it gave me the wrong link.

Another example was where it said that a certain study found a specific thing. I asked it for a link to the study and it responded that it never referred to any study. So I pointed out that it did refer to a specific study and it apologized again and gave me the wrong link.

Overall, it’s almost like it pretends to know more than what it knows but is overconfident.
