There's nothing about the bug that had anything to do with malware protection, or branch prediction, so I'm not sure how that statement applies to the conversation.

The bug was in ETW, which just happened to surface in a windows utility that ostensibly protects you from malware.
Are we sure that these simulations are unconscious? The best answer that I have is: I don’t know…

Short term, long term memory, inner dialogue, reflection, planning, social interactions… They’d even go and have fun eating lunch 3 times in a row, at noon, half past noon and at one!
As someone who mostly cycles to get around the city, I would love this situation. I could get around everywhere so quickly between all the car-tar without the fear of being killed by a careless human driver. But if this thought experiment teaches anything, it's that we should give public pathways over to non-car users way before we ever get to this stage. We've already gone way too far out of our way for cars. Make most roads bike/train/tram only and save one or two lanes max for delivery trucks and maybe buses.
Eight gigs was the least amount of memory I could buy this laptop with, and I'm using... 237M even with a few amfora and w3m running. Compiles will take more, but I stopped compiling horrible things like Firefox or Chromium years ago.
No its not the same concept (Which is what the article actually says, despite the click bait title)

Feature flags - roll this out to 1% of users, randomly selected; roll this out to users with X hardware in Y region, etc.

Authorization - only users of the admin role can edit other users

As a concrete example, you might authorize some cohort of users as admins. Within that cohort you want to vary the UI for your admin app by using a feature flag controlling whether to use the old React app or a new Angular rewrite you are rolling out in tranches.

Conflating these concepts might work in some cases, but doesnt scale. Its like saying pods, services, deployments in k8s are all the same thing just because you haven’t yet seen a use case where the difference matters. Its not hard to imagine a use case where rolling out a feature necessitates tediously duplicating your ACL rules if you’re using ACL to gate rollout of features.

Not here to one-up you, but currently this is just down to how you ask. I came up with this in about a minute:

"Please list all 50 US state capital cities, with the list sorted alphabetically starting at the first letter of each line of your response. Please do not create sections for each letter."

This returned:

- Albany, New York

- Annapolis, Maryland

- Atlanta, Georgia

- Augusta, Maine

- Austin, Texas

- Baton Rouge, Louisiana

- Bismarck, North Dakota

- ...

My gut feeling is that to get what you want from it you need to have a solid understanding of how to manipulate search engines and other fuzzy input systems. On self reflection I find it interesting that I wrote "Please" at the start of each sentence, as if that would give me a better output. Heh.
It's interesting, but being even casually interested in strength training and muscular hypertrophy means that I read as far as the second paragraph and thought "It's probably sleep apnea". It's a relatively common issue in larger individuals, including those carrying a lot of muscle. Probably better than half the heavyweight powerlifters/strongman athletes that I know use a CPAP.
This sort of model would be perfect for remote orgs. Offices near employees, destinations for corporate retreats. One vendor to cut a check to. Could also offer top notch vacation spots as a perk to employees.
> With my car, trying to lock the doors just doesn't work if one is left open

for suburban single family residence dwellers with their own garage, they may not always (or ever) lock the doors while the car is parked in their locked garage.
I imagine it's much like "I could care less" - the phrase is the literal opposite of its proper form "I couldn't care less" but both have evolved to be used synonymously.
> it's been decades without any military reactor-related incidents

If there were, I don't think they'd tell anyone. So maybe it's a trust thing. People know for sure that a wind turbine can't poison nearby communities to death no matter what goes wrong. Personally I'd prefer nuclear, but also this kind of distrust is the only way we can get more transparency.
> BS that women only care about money,

I didn’t say only, you did.

Of course it’s not only money, there is many factors. That’s the thing, it’s often impossible to highlight difference without being cast a strawman and exaggerations.

It’s a difference in the sense that men don’t care about it for their partner, it might even be a negative where for women it’s high in the list.

Again it’s a general pattern, it’s not everybody, there is exception, yada yada.

I see you are enraged and protest to this, but it’s based in biology. Women have to care for babies and thus are wired to look for a men that is taller, stronger, and have more resources(money, power). The biological reason is that while they care for little kids they need their partner to provide and protect.

That’s why it’s not a factor for men, they don’t need it, they look for beauty(good genes) and fertility(curves, yought)

So a men need to be successful, tall, strong, confident, good looking to maximise his chances
A women: beautiful, young, in good shape, happy/smiling/caring

There is plenty of exception, and people will settle for less or have different desires, but everyone know that’s the general rules.
Do you have the SponsorBlock extension installed by chance? It cut down on a lot of clickbait for me personally.
I am not smart enough to get upset over UMAP vs tSNE. 3d bar charts, no error bars and unlabeled axis are still my windmills.

If you are talking to arXiv folks, please get them to fix author search, which is horribly broken for Asian names.

Take this paper for example, https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.03717 if I then click on author, "Yuanzhi Li" it does a search using "Li, Y" which reports 4768 results.

The search for the full name gives a much better 86 results.

https://arxiv.org/search/cs?query=Yuanzhi+Li&searchtype=auth...

Ideally, they would use the author's full quoted name in the search.

https://arxiv.org/search/cs?query=%22Yuanzhi+Li%22&searchtyp...

I have reported this multiple times, nothing.
Yes, the trace comparison in the link (which the author says is for browsing YouTube in Firefox) shows average CPU usage is down from roughly 5% to roughly 4%. That’s a great improvement, but I’d like to know why we should assume that translates to 5 Watts.
It's worse than that. Try accessing these three URLs. They all render differently. The "old" site is expected to render differently, but why are the "www" and "new" sites vastly different? And it's not just the "look and feel", the content is also different??

This isn't responsive to the parent comment. There may be a strong discernible genetic component of intelligence, but it doesn't proceed logically from heritability studies; heritability is the ratio of genetically determined variance over all variance, and so can mean either maximum genetic determination, minimum determination, or anything in between.

I get that you're probably trying to take this thread in a different direction from raw heritability numbers, but the parent commenter was, correctly, rebutting a flawed previous argument based solely on heritability.
From the linked article: "A study published in July suggests that vast quantities of tire fragments find their way into the ocean not just via rivers and waterways, but also through the air. Swept on the wind, they drift far from where they were shed. The study warned that so many tire particles are landing in the Arctic that they pose a climate-change risk."

If I'm reading table S11 correctly, ICAR scores were 0.016 standard deviations lower on 2018 than in 2011.

I don't know whether the researchers chose those years for some specific reason, or if those years were the only ones available. It would be interesting to know whether the intervening years show a steady decline, or something more like a random walk.

In 2010, SF/Oakland + San Jose MSAs had 3.2 million people in the workforce.

Today, it's 3.7 million.

Austin in 2010 had 950K and now has 1.4mn.

Cities like Austin just felt like they grew more b/c they had a smaller starting point.
This raises more questions than answers:

- If he's a successful entrepreneur, why does he need $20k to kickstart a book? Presumably those multi-million dollar companies sold for multiple million dollars.

- Why without VC? Outside capital injection is important for most businesses, and it doesn't make sense to avoid it on principle

- This feels just like those "self help" and "how to succeed at business" books that have no substance whatsoever; how is this any different?

At first glance, it seems like the classic saying: those who can, do; those who can't, teach. The stock pickers on CNBC are on CNBC precisely because they can't pick stocks; if they could, they'd be making millions at a hedge fund.

He just feels so incredibly self-centered, like he has all the answers. It feels like an outgrowth of the hustler culture and I don't like it.
I'd love if you'd elaborate on this. I know very little about what VirtualProtect actually does under the hood but, in theory, it should just have to flip a couple bits in the address space mapping which says what the protection level is.
Man, I would love for him to look at my 2003 Ford Ranger. I turned on the headlights and the anti-lock breaks engaged and the gauges randomly fluctuated. That's the most recent 'fun' story I have with it... Had a parasitic drain in this thing for 5+ years, but it operates 100% fine as long as I keep the battery charged with a tickle charger and can avoid jumping it. I've mentioned this to nearly every mechanic in the last 5+ years, no one has ever found the issue. Three said replace the battery, 1 said get a new alternator. Seems like those 2 would be the go-to for mechanics these days.
You don't but it makes productionizing easy, I just have to pull their latest image for every build and it should work, since it's their official image.
I can't tell which formulation I'm meant to be responding to at this point: is it Hasan's takedown of Taibbi's clearly-flawed reporting, or is it the way Hasan's takedown applies to your own beliefs?
They are major version numbers, for example the latest Firefox is v111.0.1 and Chromium is v114.0.5708.0.

Yes, the most miniscule of minor changes is reflected with lower-level version numbers, but the major version number still gets bumped up for next to no reason other than marketing.
this sounds like the sort of perfectly reasonable system that the original manufacturer could install in order to save the world from buying several hundred thousands replacement car batteries every year.
It's pretty easy to beat using GitHub Actions, a VPS host such as DigitalOcean, and a CDN such as Cloudflare or Bunny.net.

You almost never need a serverless runtime when you're starting out. If you're building a SaaS, then your need to scale will be proportional to your revenue and you can easily afford to vertically and horizontally scale within your VPS provider using a small fraction of your subscription revenue. By the time you need to go serverless, you can afford to pay someone else to do it.
Symbian was a contender in Europe, many mobile gaming companies in Europe started on this Platform, especially in Finland/UK. Remember the Ngage?

It was nothing compared to what came later, but if you were in this business at that time, Symbian was a thing.
I think one of the reasons is air pressure inside the car.

I've always found it amazing how much less slamming the doors needed when a window was left wide open and the air inside the car could escape freely.

At my workplace, I've taught a number of younger colleagues how to solder. They come in with laboratory science degrees but varying levels of manual skills. I try to explain what makes a better soldering iron, and I think the 3 key ingredients are:

1. High quality plated tips with a reliable supply chain for replacements. Find a catalog supplier for the tips before ordering the iron.

2. A timer greatly promotes tip life if you're forgetful like me, and also placates colleagues / family members who are concerned about safety. Newer units have a built-in timer, older ones can use a cheap Belkin outlet timer.

3. Temperature control, which most soldering "stations" come with.

As for solder, lead-tin is easiest to use, but if you're committed to using lead-free, some alloys work better than others. I recommend Kester K100 as being the closest to "almost like lead-tin" due to a relatively low melting point and decent flow properties.

A magnifying visor or inspection microscope is extremely valuable for soldering fine pitch IC's.

Learning to be quick about forming a joint saves on melting the insulation of wiring and some delicate connectors.
can we stop trying to launder these arguments over and over again here?
The solidness is an indicator of quality. Apocryphally Mercedes used to add lead weights to their doors to get that solid 'thunk'. Nowadays car manufacturers are a little more subtle at it -- there's a lot of engineering that goes into how a car door feels and sounds to give that impression which is very much intentional.
That is not a counter argument. GPT creates the illusion of something that knows things, it doesn’t actually know anything.

It turns out if you had a super power where you always knew how to pick the next best word for a sentence, you could convince a lot of people you know stuff.

Is knowledge nothing more than a series of words in correct order?
While obviously, many Iranians are very unhappy with their government, that doesn't equal an outright majority. In fact, many (most?) revolutions aren't even fought by a majority; usually it's a small minority that takes over by defeating another small minority, while the rest are complacent.

Regardless, that huge military you refer to in Iran is composed of... Iranians. They're not foreign oppressors. If the Iranian people don't want these village-shelling assholes ruling over them, they need to stand up and do something about it. These soldiers live somewhere, and have families somewhere. No regime can stay in power without military support.

Anyway, back to my point: Iran's current problems aren't America's fault. Iranians are doing this to themselves, just like Afghanistan's people are oppressing themselves.
You could abstract a whole codebase in a similar fashion. Afterall, what is the difference between storing "bob" as my first name, vs storing whether I have access to the "first_name.place-0.character-b", "first_name.place-1.character-o", and "first_name.place-2.character-b" features or not.

Hm, that gives me a fun idea.

"Bring race into it", e.g. acknowledging there is a concept called "race" and that it affects many people's opportunities and potential wealth is not "race-baiting". You would know this, if you had taken your ESL class from someone other than Bill O'Reilly, or if you had read the article I linked above discussing this very issue. I didn't say you should be ashamed of racism, because I didn't at any point accuse you of racism. You ought to be ashamed... of your poor usage of English. In an attempt to steelman your poor argument, I had offered the possibility that you maybe didn't consider the treatment of Native American women in Oklahoma to be representative of treatment of women in general in USA. Apparently I needn't have bothered, because you managed to take offense rather than taking the point. So prickly!

The prerogative of women to ingest whatever they want, at any time, just as if they were men, is precisely the topic of this discussion, in contradiction to thread parent's claim that common beliefs about pregnancy only affect women if they lack determination. If we abide sexist prosecutors' ideas about Valium and marijuana, they'll soon be convicting pregnant women for taking Tylenol.

Men are charged with assault when they assault people. Women too are charged with assault in that case, but you also want them charged with assault when they take half a Valium, because "democracy". If you think that a democracy would ever give the voters a binary choice between Donald Trump and Joe Biden, there is for sure no point in your taking part in any discussion. Also for some reason you still think we were ever discussing Dobbs ITT. I would suggest (against HN guidelines!) you read TFA, but at this point in the thread it's clear that wouldn't help.
> It's unclear how this is more satisfying on an intellectual level. It's only more satisfying on an emotional level, as it usually comes with the belief of a personal God that loves and wants the best for you, not to mention an afterlife.

This idea of treating intellect and emotions as a dichotomy rather than as two inseparable parts of a harmonious whole has a history – it goes back to the ancient Greeks. Maybe we should question that idea, rather than just assuming it must be true?

And, is an afterlife really that implausible? Putting "supernatural" accounts of it to one side, how sure can you be that the quantum immortality hypothesis is false? Or: in an infinite future, any event with non-zero probability, no matter how remote its chance, will almost certainly eventually happen. Since the probability of our spontaneous resurrection from the dead (through thermal and/or quantum fluctuations) is unimaginably tiny yet strictly speaking non-zero, in a spatiotemporally infinite universe (as in eternal inflation), almost surely it will eventually happen. If the universe is infinite, an afterlife is almost certain; we don't really know whether the universe is infinite, so let's say that's 50-50, which makes an afterlife 50-50 – even if just as a Boltzmann brain. Of course, you can argue against this if you make certain assumptions about the criterion of personal identity, but we really don't know if those assumptions are true – which brings the probability of an afterlife back to 50-50. And then, if the simulation hypothesis is true (another 50-50), it would be very easy for our simulators to give us an afterlife if they wanted, and they might even feel ethically obliged to do so.

If the probability of an afterlife is actually 50-50, why do some people insist its probability is close to zero? Emotional reasons, perhaps? If you don't accept the religious claim that an afterlife is going to be fundamentally just–eternity suddenly becomes terrifying. What if our eternal fate is to spend aeons as a Boltzmann brain perpetually slipping in and out of existence in the cold darkness of space, a mind whose experiences have the bare minimum of coherence to count as experiences of a mind? What if our simulators are mischievous rather than benevolent, and have designed for us an afterlife in which they have fun at our expense?
And it is not uncommon that an intentionally bad model (low AIC) will be used for inference on a parameter when one wants to test the robustness of the parameter to covariates.
Nuclear is a terrible technology to use as a hedge against inclement weather for power generation. The cost is all upfront, so you really want to be running it at 100% basically all the time for it to be at its most cost effective. Only running it when renewables aren't generating is incredibly costly, we'd be better off just overbuilding renewables + storage and having plenty of redundancy in the grid.
Oh yeah I agree that it _could_ do all those things, but it would be a bit of overkill to always send every observation an agent encounters into the API/chatbox, and ask it to spit out an evaluation or action.

This paper does a nice job of separating the "agency" from the next word with context type predictor. I think that's why I like the paper, it is just chatgpt, in the same way that pizza is just dough, sauce, and cheese.
I've been thinking about this topic for some time and love that someone else came to the same conclusion!

There are a lot more differences in the requirements for these use cases though, e.g., feature flags products want for more analytics, controlled rollout, etc.; authorization, not so much. Authorization requires access to lots of shared application data/state; feature flags, not so much.

Another area of overlap I see is entitlements/billing, e.g., can this person access this feature based on the plan they've signed up for? I've seen a lot of companies use the same underlying systems for feature flags, authorization, and entitlements (esp at earlier-stage companies and ones with a heavy DIY bent). Is this consistent with what others see/do?

Woah, I didn’t even realize dove was etymologically unjustifiable[0]. I speak a variety of American English that’s almost indistinguishable from the educated standard, and it wouldn’t even have occurred to me that “dived” could be used as the past participle of “dive”.

Apparently “dove” is mostly common in North America.
