Brits, Americans, and various other citizens can live there for 3 months fine.

For working though EU citizens can just rock up and get a job

"If you are a citizen from a state outside the European Economic Area (EEA), the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), or the Faroe Islands, you must obtain a residence and a work permit before working in Iceland. "

https://work.iceland.is/working/residence-permit/

"Who does not need a work permit

Certain foreign nationals are exempt from obtaining a temporary work permit. This includes citizens from countries within the European Economic Area, countries within the European Free Trade Agreement or from the Faroe Islands."

"Citizens of the following countries are exempt from applying for a work permit:"

"EU/EEA citizens do not need a residence and a work permit in Iceland and may stay in Iceland for up to three months without registering and moving domicile to Iceland. The relocation to Iceland is quite simple in terms of bureaucratic related issues for EU/EEA citizens.

EU/EEA citizen staying longer than three months an Icelandic ID number is needed and change of domicile is required."

Which I believe is the same as moving to an EU country. Certainly my parents had to register for things like EKA and some other things when they moved to Greece back in 2001. I suspect moving State in the US is similar (otherwise how would you know to pay state income tax?)

I could work fine in a bar in Greece during the summer without any of that as I was only there for a couple of months, and this was before my rights had been removed.

Compare the process with the UK

"
All non-EU/EEA citizens require a residence- and a work permit in Iceland and need to apply through Iceland Directorate of Immigration (DOI).
....
The Immigration Process

Employment confirmed
Welcome Center contacts the newly recruited employee.
Employee accumulates required documents for immigration purposes and keeps the Welcome Center updated on the process.
Employee sends all the required documents to Iceland, to the Welcome Center.
Welcome Center submits the documents to the Directorate of Immigration and keeps the applicant updated on any developments.
Welcome Center notifies the applicant of the accepted application and the preliminary issued permit.
Employee applies for a D-visa to Iceland at a relevant embassy - if applicable, depends on citizenship.
Welcome meeting upon arrival at the University of Iceland, Welcome Center.
Employee registers formally into Iceland through Directorate of Immigration - appointment and a photoshoot.
Employee undergoes a medical checkup - if applicable, depending on citizenship.

But at least Brits get to enjoy those brexit freedoms.

I believe it is an even better match if you have components in a template system (without jsx), because you can just copy the html without maintaining some css in js. You can quickly have something similar to components in Django thanks to this.
I think it's a lot more common in the US than elsewhere. Certainly in Europe and Asia paracetamol (acetominaphen) looks to be more common.

My point is we wouldn't have a loss of jobs because of this. If you had to generate your own data and not steal it from others, you'd have to hire people to generate it. The point is openAI, stability, and everyone else is taking advantage of basically training on "open" data on the internet they have access to.

If you had to pay someone for their data to train on, the balance of power shifts to those who have skills worthwhile the AI people want to replace: writers, artists, scientists, developers, etc, and they would not charge cheapely, if at all. Another possibility is a situation similar to software companies today, they'd only give you basic data to train on, leaving the crown jewels under wraps.
Lower Decks is hands down my favorite of the new Star Trek shows. As for the episodic collection, Strange New Worlds is somewhat trying to return to it. As was The Orville!
I own both the ThinkPad X1 Carbon and the Framework 13.

Removing technical specs from the equation, the Framework is cool, but the Thinkpad is generations ahead in terms of its build quality, tactile feel, and overall ergonomics. And it's not by a small margin - it's immediately palpable.

This is for several reasons: they're two different classes of notebooks with two different budgets; Lenovo has a lot more experience building laptops; Lenovo has access to a more sophisticated design, supply chain, and assembly process which they leverage to shape and mold the overall form better.

I'm hoping Framework catches up. I really like what they're trying to accomplish. But for now, theirs is not the laptop I slide into my backpack.
This puts too much unnecessary burden on developers and maintainers. It doesn't make sense to adapt software to tens of distributions (and then to different OS like FreeBSD).

Apt should be used only for system software (like init system, system libraries) but not for applications.

Also apt allows to run scripts as root during installation and this is not secure.
Because they are day-trading, and if everyone stopped day-trading, all of these exchanges would collapse overnight. They can't sustain themselves off people buying coins once a year.
Yeah, good question. At a high level I think the best analogy is React: when I first saw it, I wasn't entirely sure about mixing in HTML with my Javascript. It seemed strange. Now that I've been using React for years, however, collocating these things seems like the obviously correct thing to do.

Tailwind is similar: instead of extracting styles out to a separated styled component or even a separate .scss file, you collocate them with the rest of your layout. When I read code using Tailwind it's easy for me to "see" how things will look in a similar way that I can "see" how a React component will function at run time.

More concretely, I think these three things were important for me:

1. There's a really solid design system underpinning the Tailwind utility classes. With styled-components you start from nothing, and with off-the-shelf component libraries (e.g. MUI) you get a design system that isn't quite as well thought out. Tailwind's classes just work together really well out of the box because the defaults are so sensible. I'm not a designer, so this is a really big win for me.

2. Components help prevent class soup. I suspect I wouldn't enjoy Tailwind quite so much if I were writing plain HTML, but for things which _do_ need to be reusable like button styles I'm still writing code that looks like `<Button>...</Button>`. Nothing really changes here from styled-components -> Tailwind other than how the styles are written; they're equally maintainable.

3. One-off snowflake UIs are really easy to implement, because you can just write your classes right then and there. I've never worked on a nontrivial web application where _everything_ fits cleanly into the design system, and going through the ceremony of creating a styled component just to add a little bit of additional spacing is a pain. It also sucks for maintainability because a name like "Spacer" doesn't tell me anything about the styles, so I need to context switch and jump to the definition. In contrast, seeing "mx-2" instantly tells me what's happening.

I do think Tailwind's something that benefits from first-hand experience, though.
i think it won't work until it is more like a holodeck and less like a vr headset.
I hope the current wave of investigations, prosecutions and regulations will forge cryptocurrencies into something that is actually useful beyond speculation and doing crimes. Once the fight is settled, we may end up with something the general public and traditional banks will trust enough to use.
If we could reliably show that ground rhino horns and tiger penises work, we'd be using them, or finding an easily mass produced derivatives.
I am surprised that the Nile is only at 105th, far below even the Danube and the Volga. It holds such prominence in Western history that I naively expected it to be in the top 5.
They haven't evolved to stop issues happening, partly because many a consumer won't understand the need so won't accept it (I'm returning this because it never charges to 100%) and there isn't enough demand from elsewhere for it to affect sales of devices (in office environments those laptops are usually cycled out before it would be a significant issue anyway).

But these days there are often controls in place to cut off power if things look bad (battery getting too hot, mainly) so things are more likely to die on their own rather than setting fire to themselves and anything near-by.
Awesome. Between crypto hype in 2017 and AI hype in 2023 I've acquired a collection of 2x 1080ti, an RTX 3060 and an RTX 4090. All together it's a total of 58GB of VRAM. Is there a way I can pool it all across a distributed cluster of 2 machines for doing anything? I'm assuming it would bottleneck on both network speeds and the slowest GPUs if it's possible at all...
You might like a Spanish saying:

"Vísteme despacio, que tengo prisa". (dress me slowly, because I am in a hurry)
React was unique in that it didn’t have a solution for CSS out of the box. Vue, and the current gen frameworks like Svelte, include CSS right inside the component.
I've been a longtime ThinkPad X1 user, but last year I switched to a System76 Lemur Pro, and I'm very satisfied.

finally ESM. jesus.

The internals are still CJS, but at least we can use it ESM.
I’m not so optimistic. I feel the opposite: managers are convinced that "real" work is all about copy/pasting slides in powerpoint and clicking cells in excel. In fact, most of them are happy to "work" on their phone or tablet. Nearly none of them could touchtype anyway.

So, yeah, keyboard is a thing for the working plebs. As long as it has a key to "launch videoconferencing". (and Apple is even worse in that regard)

I wonder if there's a corollary about different media formats.

Or, you know, you could ask ChatGPT to explain it to you... Granted the term was coined 2021>=. Even if it wasn't but the paper is less than 32k tokens... 0.6c for the answer doesn't seem all that steep.

edit: grammar
That’s only going to get you so far. Sparsely represented subjects have have an actual reality you’re trying to model. So while yes, you can generate synthetic data to interpolate between the points that have already been sampled, whether those interpolated points have anything to do with the underlying reality is a matter of chance. If you really try to drill down the existing tools into a specialized problem area, it becomes very clear that they lack a sufficiently informed model of the subject to be useful. That’s why I’ve found that ChatGPT is great at the beginning of a project and increasingly irrelevant as you approach the core technical challenges of the project.
That answer is rather light on specifics.
A few practical use cases that are not easily covered by similar platforms:

1) Direction finding thanks to the 8x 153 MSPS ADCs and coherent clocks.

2) Mixed domain analyzer: have one daughterboard act as a RF receiver, and at the same time sample an analogue voltage with the other one. This is a capability reserved to the most expensive of test equipment and lets you analyze how a RF switch is behaving (or do side channel attacks?).

3) Sample almost 600 MHz of bandwidth in real time, use the powerful DSP core to run FFTs on it and send the results over to a browser that implements a RTSA display. This lets you have a real-time view of the spectrum around you for just a few watts. Thanks to the double-PPLs on the Granita board, you can also sweep the spectrum very fast.

4) There is enough processing power onboard to enable RFNM as a 5G RedCap node. We are working with NXP to add an eSIM, so with the right software, this can become a fully-functional 5G UE and connect to the normal cell network. Don't care about 5G? You can write your own standard and deploy it on the same hardware (the limitation here is having access to NXP's DSP development tools, which might limit the processing to the beefy i.MX 8M Plus, but some cores will be available as binaries).

5) Technically, anything requiring an insane amount of ADCs and DACs. You can implement your own board, as the heavy lifting (the motherboard) is already done for you. You could prototype something easily with the development board that's on the website and turn it into a real design within weeks.
Any chance browser version will work well? Currently authentication issues and user experience is terrible IMHO, sorry.
I've built a few small projects with it, and as much as I love the design tokens the idea of having a CSS class for every value of every possible property feels like abusing CSS, and it makes it feel like it has the same complexity of css
The average expected lifespan of an ICE vehicle is 200k miles, and the average expected lifespan of an EV is 300k miles. The average ICE vehicle in the USA is driven between 12k and 15k miles per year. So for an ICE vehicle that averages out to 14.8 years to reach 200k, and an EV, 22.2 years to reach 300k. On average.
For ThinkPads they care a lot more. For example my P14s Gen 2 AMD lets you set the sleep state to S3 in the BIOS. This is labeled as "Linux". My W520 lets you disable the discrete Nvidia card in the BIOS when other laptops of the same time period would not and would assume you're using Windows and it's driver to disable the card. When graphics switching laptops first launched Linux support was super flakey and having the Nvidia card on all the time was a huge power draw. Even getting the card turned off was a chore on my Asus which lacked a BIOS toggle.

No they aren't perfect at Linux support but ThinkPads are generally much better than the other big vendors including Lenovo themselves.
Flatpaks are better than snaps IMO, but both are only good for certain apps due to the largely half baked implementations.

I've had some success with Nix. Still I would only generally recommend it for development (even though I use NixOs)
I'm also always struggling with a correct way to formulate this number. Most reports will cite IEA report which says something like "construction and operation of buildings are responsible for 38% of global emissions" (note "construction"). This number is usually the one you'll see during ESG presentations.
Thousands of people are hospitalized yearly due to bleeds from 'allegedly' safe drug. The overdose occurs due to double-dosing or people taking too much owing to the drugs not working. Same for drugs containing acetaminophen. Overall, overpriced , infective drugs that cause more harm than good except for the most minor of pain. The notion that these drugs are supposed to be safer seems clearly false.
Stock buybacks aren't institutionalized insider trading, then?
I'd say what you're looking for exists but not in the US. Brits have electric city cars that I'd want to buy, but can't.

"Public domain" does not mean "available for public consumption." If I publish a blog post, I hold the copyright on that blog post, and reproducing it is a violation of copyright, despite the fact that it was posted publicly.

Public domain means that something can be reproduced without violating copyright, because the work is effectively owned by the public.

Speaking as someone who has gotten into genealogy lately: There was plenty of outrageously bad penmanship in the past too.
Nice. My handwriting is said to be beautiful, and friends crane their necks when I'm writing to see. However, it's too small for people to read, and somewhat old-fashioned cursive which makes it hard to read again. This is good for me, to some extent, as I consider my writing only for me! This is backfiring somewhat as my eyesight ages. I don't write to read it again, though, so it's fine for now. When I write letters to friends, I always include a typed-up printout so friends have the pleasure of receiving a hand-written missive, but they can also read it!

When I write on tablets and boards, I use a much simpler handwriting style, usually neat capitals, so I have writing for me and writing for others.

The main thing that kills penmanship is a lack of practice, like playing guitar. I think Nile Rodgers said, if I don't practice for a day, I know it. If I don't practice for two days, my band knows it, and if I don't practice for three days, the audience knows it. Maybe it was Pat Metheny, but the point holds for me. If I don't write in my diary for a few days, the writing isn't as smooth and fluid. But when I have been writing like a beast, the words flow like anything onto the paper.

Hard to find time to pick up a pen for pleasure.
Which is ironic because the Big 4 are not known for aggressive auditing. There have been plenty of cases in trad-fi where a positive audit was followed by collapse, and sometimes evidence of criminality.

There's a difference between buzzwords and jargon. Buzzwords can start out as jargon, but have their technical meaning stripped by users who are just trying to sound persuasive. Examples include words like synergy, vertical, dynamic, cyber strategy, and NFT.

That's not what's happening in the parent comment. They're talking about projects like

https://github.com/ZrrSkywalker/LLaMA-Adapter

https://github.com/microsoft/LoRA

https://github.com/tloen/alpaca-lora

and specifically the paper:
https://arxiv.org/pdf/2106.09685.pdf

Lora is just a way to re-train a network for less effort. Before we had to fiddle with all the weights, but with Lora we're only touching 1 in every 10,000 weights.

The parent comment says GPT4all doesn't give us a way to train the full size Llama model using the new lora technique. We'll have to build that ourselves. But it does give us a very huge and very clean dataset to work with, which will aid us in the quest to create an open source chatGPT killer.
I mean, wow, is that ever completely broken.

Forget social welfare or anything, there needs to be some level of (further) regulatory intervention here to even just create a fair free market.
Building apt packages isn't the issue, libraries is. Debian ships very old libraries, forcing applications to run in docker. Or bring their own copies of system libraries.

Look at Arch Linux, we just write a short AUR script and the package is integrated. Once the script is written, everyone can use it. This is possible because Arch always ships recent libraries.

Yeah, for all the hype about opioids being bad, these 'safe' drugs are way more dangerous than commonly purported. Acetaminophen is especially bad because the toxicity threshold is only slightly above the therapeutic dose. That is why they have to put so many warnings on this 'safe' drug. Yet let's blame opioids. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Therapeutic_index

Software (Neural Net) are not at the level of our brain, in particular they do not fine tune constantly to the current conditions and problems. But they are getting there. Just looking at the visualisation in FSD you can see how accurate the system is at recognizing all the cars, their position, theirs speeds, etc. Human only only track a few objects and only when they catch our attention. Furthermore theirs system has 8 cameras, no distraction, sleepiness, etc.
I think it does, why wouldn't it work? That's installing it via aptitude, not flatpak.
