What is advantage of Mercury over Streamlit?
You don't need to rewrite your code into Python script. You can serve notebook with its charts, dataframes and Markdown. If you want you can show/hide code. You can share multiple notebooks (websites). There is authentication and PDF export.

What is advantage over Viola?
Mercury offers cloud service for deployment. You just upload notebook to make a website. That's it.

What is advantage over Gradio?
Gradio is a framework for show casing ML models. You provide input for ML model with widgets and compute the prediction (output). Mercury can be used for show casing ML models, data science reports, dashboards and even scientific presentations (with slides recomputing after widget update)
E-bikes have been in China for forever now, and I see them as..maybe a bit cheap and flimsy, what you get if your locality has banned gas scooters/cycles and you can’t afford a car. You’ll see some guy collecting recycling with a cargo e bike stacked up 9 or so feet high, it’s quite amazing what can be done with them, but they would never be considered car or truck replacements.

Of course, in the developed world, bikes are more luxury things, so the market for e-bikes is completely different.

Of course the US uses coercion. There have been numerous appalling cases that are utterly deplorable, mostly during the Cold War, but we’re talking about Ukraine. They didn’t use any in Ukraine, they didn’t need to. As the overwhelming vote in the Ukrainian parliament in favour of the EU accords, and numerous elections and polls in Ukraine since demonstrated clearly.
Seriously, in what dimension is this a good choice?
They are just giving away GPT-3 grade queries. In terms of revenue, that's NaN% gross margin! Thus, -10,000% gross margin is quite the improvement. While I personally don't think that they are spending quite that much on compute, burning investor capital to build a customer base is a time honored tradition. Which means we can't really deduce that because -10,000% is such a big number, that can't possibly be their compute costs.
Just want to make sure we are talking about the same thing here.

The “legal site” you are referring to was the Nazi filled one that had the stated aim of trying to dox and harass minorities and kept a running tally of how many they could get to kill themselves?

This is neat. Why do they not provide the schematics for everyone though?
Securing cockpit doors contributed to the death of 150 people however: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germanwings_Flight_9525

> Shortly after reaching cruise altitude and while the captain was out of the cockpit, Lubitz locked the cockpit door and initiated a controlled descent that continued until the aircraft hit a mountainside.
My experience has been nothing like this. Ideally, they'd be replaced by a vending machine.
Agree. 15m achieves two things: not a lot of money in Tesla terms but enough that it is noticed and would be a motivation to avoid similar claims. And enough after legal costs that the plaintiff never has to work there again.

As someone who used to visit the west bank for work I've spent many hours in intimidating interrogation, appropriated laptops, missed flights and most recently 3 days in a horrible prison without access to a shower or fresh clothing, after being denied access to the country for completely nonsense reasons. And the security argument is complete BS most of the time, NGO employees get the same kind of treatment.

The Ben Gurion approach really only works well if the border personnel likes you, A.K.A you're of the right ethnicity, which is not a shining example of how it's done right IMO.

Yeah, and part of me wishes they did this years ago, but at the same time I can understand they wanted to keep it small on purpose; once you go public like on Steam, the dynamics change and you can't just bury your nose in code all day but you have to deal with finances, refunds, reviews, legalese, etc as well.
That's fair, flow state (which is what I think you're describing) is amazing.

But for most people, it's:

(I've cut the example for the sake of clarity reading this comment)

> Don't use any 3rd party libraries.

which is an actual I've tried and it does 90% of what you want with 4 bugs (that I've found so far) in 135 lines.

Not perfect, sure — and it would have to be perfect to actually replace us! — but it is amazing.
You could argue this is also a recipe for burnout.

And thats why binary advice is pretty much useless.

Everything is a balance, but you can't embrace the suck for 10 years, rarely anyone can.

Sometimes we also avoid the reality that we just need to quit, get healthy.

IMO the secret is not to always be struggling but to always maintain the balance of both. That is also why for many people "Eat the frog first" doesn't work.

So I'll end this with menial - it highly depends...

You can be sure Open AI isn't even paying Azure's punlishedy 3-year commitment pricing rate.

The other thing to note is that OpenAI limits paying users to X queries per Y hours in GPT-4, something like 3 per 5. Which means the GPT-4 fleet is quite limited.

I was on a comittee organising about 8 years back for the southern universities latin and ballroom competition, so not a professional one, but also not profit making.

The full day cost around £6200, that included music, demonstration couple, compare, 6 judges, food, first aiders, venue hire, officials, trophies, medals, programmes, decorations. We then charged around £12.50 entry for ~500 students.

The national competition for universities happens in blackpool every year and I imagine the costs are around 3-4x that considering the venue and number of officials. And unless we got discounts for being universities, or the judges are paid less, i imagine it costs at least £28,000 to put on a big professional competition.

In a comparable venue to the winter gardens in blackpool

Using a VPN might have security implications (such as now, you have an additional central entity, maybe not in the same jurisdiction as you, that can list your network connections to a requesting entity), or not be an answer to your thread model.

In wars factories making guns make money selling guns. You could as well say Iran or Turku engineered the conflict to sell drones. Maybe the North Korean 152mm shell manufacturers are behind it all.

Raytheon didn’t invade Ukraine. Boeing didn’t invade Ukraine. There’s one country with one leader that invaded Ukraine, and that is where the sole responsibility lies for that decision.

He did so solely and specifically in response to the expressed democratic wishes of the Ukrainian people. That is what this war is about. You know it, I know it, the rest is just distraction.
Seems like a gimmick to me.

I've been commuting with reinforced tyres (puncture protection) for 10 years now, and the only punctures I got was when I changed bike and did not upgrade to reinforced tyres straight away. I've not had a single puncture with reinforced tyres (though I get the most reinforced you can get). It's anecdota of course, but I'd love to know if people actually get punctures with that sort of tyres.

And this is not by virtue of having clean roads. There are potholes and there is a lot of glass on the cycle lane. Nowadays I don't even bother trying to avoid glass shard and just go straight in. One time I came home with a 0.5cm glass shard stuck in my tyre. It had not punctured the tube.

I don't have experience with tubeless designs or solid tyres, but they solve the issue as well.

Don't attribute to tech that could be adequately explained by a management incompetence. I've seen stupid things done by a techy people. I've seen way more way stupider things demanded by management [and implemented by tech or whoever at the bottom of the food chain].

> datacenter causes way more pollution per square meter so how is that more efficient

How is that a sensible comparison? Are you suggesting that if they spread out servers over a large enough area that would improve this somehow? Like let’s place a rack per every hectare of wheat..

> they don’t have many employees.

Yes. The definition of efficiency.

Then again modern agricultural is very not labour intense either, just much less efficient space wise.
Yes. Did they fix the doors/protocol in the meantime?
Agreed, I was more thinking about it happening in the apartment. I do not see me surviving such event, unleast the battery is being charged on the balcony (but even then). LiFePO4 failure, while not a picnic, at least can be proofed against.

Of course, it is the same with scooters and bikes, but there are a lot of bikes (and almost no scooters) with removable packs, so yeah. But compared to the unicycle, bike takes up half of a small apartment.
Wow, this is a much more interesting answer than I expected. Thank you!
Somewhat off-topic, but what's the :^) supposed to mean?

I've always parsed it as "the previous statement was intentionally wrong or irritating", sort of like the /s sarcasm tag except it can also denote trolling those who aren't in on the joke. I'm unsure whether it's used as a normal smiley here or whether there's something I'm missing.
I second that device, but it even though it says it has a directional cardioid polar pattern, it is fairly omnidirectional, only use it when you have little background noise next to you (other people, animals, etc).

The vax mandates have been around since the 1950s.
I agree we all have many benign cancers. But chronic cancer is not really cured cancer.

You seem to be suggesting we could find a way to detect harmful cancers and ignore benign cancers, but I am fairly sure that any “detection” couldn’t be discriminating enough (~100% true positive) to say it was a cure for cancer. Also cancer is often noticed once it has already caused damage, perhaps harmful damage, so your cancer is “cured” but the patient would sometimes get loss of function.

Except that they deified many emperors and forced everyone to worship them - which was the main source of conflict with Christians.

Communism opposed religion because they were competing theories of inequality.

>replacing a car with an e-bike would require a lot of sacrifices

I never got that argument. And some drivers are really passionate about what their cars can do that bikes can't.

It's not about replacing cars, but just about having an additional vehicle that you can choose in the morning.

Boeing's most popular plane was the 737, a lightweight and operationally convenient plane.

But airlines were never told to replace their 747s or 777s with 737s ! And they never replaced 737s with the 787 because the Dreamliner can do more !

You can own an ebike to go to work or to the bakery, and still have a car to go across the state, to go shopping, or to drive when you don't want to ride your bike.

It still saves money, fuel, and the environment, in the end.

Human exceptionalism has poisoned so many studies.

My pet-theory why primates do not vocalize is that the neural difference is not even that cemented, it has to be some difference at the language acquiring stage as babys and children, were one human pattern matching center for sound fires constantly, acquiring the language "keys" and theirs dont.

And it all cascades from there.

It would be really fascinating, to help them acquiring language and uplift them. Maybe its even mammal universal applyable.
> You have a huge database. You need to make a number of non-trivial queries with subtle but precise requirements against it. Your livelihood depends on these results being correct. You have limited time to work on it.

I admit I am not the sharpest knife in the drawer. My collegues aren't either. I'm not especially great with complex queries, but I'm alright.

To be honest. I'd have GPT generate me a bunch of templates or starter ideas for me to look over and refine. If I sit down and write the query I usually end up being distracted by details.

Again, that's me and I'm no genius. My point is that most people aren't and GPT is producing OK code snippets, usually better. I know it's sad but I had this same requirement yesterday and GPT nailed the query in 1sec. I just had to read it and understand it. It's not always so pretty, but it can be.
Why 40% of Vietnamese People Have the Same Last Name (2017)
I think unlike the rest of the world, the Israeli's actually know they are actively being targeted. It's not a hypothetical. Politics aside, Palestinians match the Arabian profile and are an active threat. That really sucks if you are completely innocent and ethnically Arab and happen to travel that way of course but it is what it is. They simply are not going to take any chances. It's unfair, probably racist, and it works. And love them or hate them but they have kept a really clean record and that's not for a lack of people trying.

The Israeli's have perfected their airport security over the years and it's a multi layered system of intelligence, profiling, observation via camera's and no doubt lots of high tech. By the time you get to security, they know exactly who they are dealing with. You wouldn't get anywhere near there if that wasn't the case.

And as they've learned the hard way in Israel, security checkpoints can also be active targets. A lot of the gaza and west bank border crossings have been targeted in the past. Basically, any concentration of people is a potential target. So if somebody with a bomb makes it even close to a checkpoint, they've already lost. They need to catch people before that.

The chaotic scenes in European and US airports in the last decades where you regularly have thousands of people piling up in front of security checkpoints, kind of drives home just how low that particular threat actually is. It's a security nightmare. Yet it rarely goes wrong. There was an attack in Brussels airport a few years ago and it was pretty awful but that's one of the few times that actually happened. Otherwise what happens at airports is security theater. It's mostly not actually about security but about plausible deniability when things do go wrong.
Across most of Europe farmers are probably one of the most privileged social groups due to all the subsidies, favorable tax treatment and other stuff, though.

Of course there are some very rational reasons for that.
It's interesting to think about it this way.

I'm sure serious competitors are just around the corner, at least Bard will catch up, No doubt Apple has something in the works, there's little to zero doubt about that.

So do they make a huge capital investment hoping that growth will continue at this trajectory, or do they back off the gas pedal ?

I bet there's also some contentious ideas going on internally too. If they go on a huge hiring spree, does that kind of invalidate the product which is supposed to replace everyone? How do the optics look there? Do they hire and fire once GPT-5 becomes a sentient AGI?

Google already has a huge engineering team, operates are unprecedented scale, and IMO has a much more diverse set of products to integrate with, they also solve a lot of novel solutions which they require specialized engineers that can't be replaced easily by "AI".

Be interesting to see how it plays out. Maybe a victim of their own success ?
So too wide for bike lanes and cycleways, but too low and slow to share lanes with cars, and with impaired visibility from the cover? Sounds really dangerous. The thing that makes my e-bike safe in traffic is that I'm high up to see and be seen, and I can avoid being in traffic most of the time thanks to bike lanes and cycleways.
Pumped hydro requires a large volume of fluid and a height difference.

Valleys are useful as they provide a large volume that can be capped with relative ease.

An underground reservoir requires a large volume to be excavated (or a pre existing cave system) and a deeper chamber again for the turbines to powered by the fall .. to yet another deeper underground reservoir.

I'm not saying this is impossible, I stating that as an engineering venture (actual civil engineering not software "engineering") there are some real challenges and greater ones than using existing topography.
