I posted on another thread that not only does GPT4 handle Norwegian just fine (0.1% of training data for GPT3), but Norway has two official languages that are mutually intelligible and close enough that some would consider them dialects, but GPT can handle Nynorsk, the smaller of the two (Bokmål being the other) just fine.

Going one step further, I asked it to "translate" into both "Riksmål", an artificial conservative variant of Bokmål that basically rejects most of the last few decades worth of language reforms, as well as Romeriksdialect (dialect from the Eastern part of Norway)... For the latter it gave me a lecture about how it varies internally in the region (which is correct) and presented a "translation" of a test sentence that is recognisably one of the variants from the Northern part of the region.

Of course for these competency definitely bleeds over. They share an almost identical grammar and a majority of orthography, but I'm impressed enough it can handle Norwegian that well at all, much less that it knows the distinctions between the variants.
I disagree- socialized care is like insurance. The incentive is to pay out as little as possible. This is true whether it's a government health care program or actual health insurance.

An actual "market" system encourages consumption and competes on price and quality.

Health insurance (public or private) makes sense for catastrophic events (major illnesses) but for regular ongoing things like GP visits and common prescriptions, it's just a middleman that drives up prices and discourages prevention and primary healthcare.
There's an exception, IMO, for safety critical items in sports.

I've seen so many people show up at climbing walls with cheap carabiners from amazon/etc that aren't rated for climbing, but when you view the listing all the images show climbing.
I wired in an aftermarket DVD player in an old car and tapped into a fuse that was supposed to not draw power when off. Of course, it did draw power so the DVD player never shut off. It wasn't too much of a draw but I didn't want to end up with a dead battery situation because of it so my solution was to just plug the fuse tap in when the kids were in the car and wanted to watch something.

I'm sure there was a more elegant solution (find a different fuse, rig up a button, etc.) but this was the path of least resistance and wasn't really annoying to do.
Subtract $7500 for the federal EV rebate and up to $7500 for state rebates, and some buyers will see starting prices under $15k.
This book, kinda like "Steal This Book" was more of a meme that it really was an actual guide.

Any actual truth, which might have been sparse to begin with, would have been rapidly picked and shared with cops; the M-O would have been clear. And that's assuming it was a real guide -- it was actually written by a housewife who later killed her husband and went to jail for it.
> Why is the bottom-right corner of the box not filled in? Because there are only 60 x 60 x 24 = 86400 seconds in a day, but the big box is 300 x 300 = 90000 dots. So 3600 are blank.(4%) Thanks to a reader for the question.

???

Alright... no.

86400 / 9 = 9600

Not quite a square, but it would look better... I guess... though why would I want it grouped into 9 anyway?

There may be some reason, but I can't figure out why not 60 dots * 60 dots * 24 boxes arranged in a 6x4 grid. :(

EDIT: Oh, it's supposed to represent graph paper. I'm in my mid 30s and that completely went over my head. Just saying.

Only 1.4 million people bought an iPhone in 2007.

20 million in 2009.
Over 200 million in 2015.

Now the numbers won’t nearly be the same but hopefully it’s enough to end this silly conversation.

Here are some Tesla numbers that go back 7 years. Now add several car companies then extrapolate

Yeah have often thought the same but presumably they wouldn’t have been able to keep pulling all these shenanigans/fraud if they had proper security staff.
I can recommend searching for "South Main Auto parasitic draw" on YouTube. The guy is a genius at electrical troubleshooting.

His strategy isn't to pull fuses, it's to set the car sit for at least 30 minutes or so (with key off) and then check each fuse with a multimeter to see which has current on it, and then check everything on that circuit. Arm yourself with schematics and wiring diagrams, otherwise it'll end up being something of a wild goose chase.

(The idea being if you start pulling fuses, you can "reset" various computers in the car, which may show up as a false positive. It can take up to 30 minutes or so for all the various computers in a car to all go to sleep, although it's usually only a few minutes for most cars.)

@kashunstva that's really interesting, how would you link cards together, though?

All right - got my checkbook out - how much do I have to put down to reserve a spot. Fyre Fest 1 was a such a blast after I was finally able to find water, food and a bathroom. Sleeping outdoors isn't so bad in the Bahamas.

Wait - is this an experiment to test the theory that "Nobody ever lost money under estimating the intelligence of the American public"?
Not great advice.

Most new-ish cars also store the dinamic engine calibration data in ECU RAM so if you disconnect the battery you can find your engine running harsher next time. So are the values of the headlights auto leveling system and other stuff.

You're also risking to reset the radio/media unit security code (on cars that aren't too new but also not super old), which if you got the car second hand and the former owner didn't save the piece of paper it came with and give it to you, tough luck unlocking it.

Being free of government control doesn't imply lawlessness. I wouldn't want the government to control jeans manufacturing, but if someone steals your jeans, that's still a crime. There are laws against theft, and crypto and jeans are just different kinds of property.
1. Check your Vitamin D levels, if deficient use liquid drops to supplement. Lot of people suffer from this in winter, especially in the northern hemisphere.

2. Do you suffer from a stiff neck? If 1 does not help to release muscle tension, check for Intracranial hypertension or Intracranial pressure (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intracranial_pressure).
Cars that never have a driver could be much smaller. Eventually what we need for this scenario in congested areas is a driving decision protocol that's based on consensus with neighboring cars, some kind of leader election algorithm, etc. If all cars were full self driving they could in some situations drive at super high speeds as a swarm, you wouldn't even need stoplights.
In the military, the folks tasked with Mechanical maintenance of vehicles are an entirely different branch with different training, infra, etc than those tasked with Electrical maintenance of vehicles. Perhaps we need a similar dichotomy on the civilian side.

> Are bike manufacturers going to pay for bike lanes?

Are bike manufacturers operating the bicycles for profit?

> What about Big Walking Shoe…

Are they operating the shoes for profit?

Or is it the citizens, taxpayers if you will, operating the shoes and bikes as part of their “social contract” with the city?

Now, are the citizens of SF owning and operating robocars as part of this social bargain or is it for-profit entities 100% doing it to extract income from the citizens?

Not that I’m saying profit as an incentive is wrong but you do see the difference in these two things, right?
I've never understood why cars don't just cut power before the battery is too low to start. If that's too complicated then just have an option to cut all power after X hours of non-running time.

I bet the old popular theft of car radio is a root cause; cars needed to stay running to keep the alarm active and power the radio continuously so it wouldn't require the unlock code every time you start the vehicle.

It's actually pretty impressive how much power even a 200mA draw at 12V is over a few days; it's about 58 Watt-hours or 3.5 iPhone batteries per day.
Oh a relay that goes on after you turned the key would be very handy. It is rather easy to find a point where there's only a voltage present after/while starting.

Of course, when the array controlled circuit would be vital for entering or starting, this would not be an option.
> We sometimes find $50m of assets lying around that we lost track of; such is life.

I want that life. No, seriously, let me find even just $5M laying around, just once.

I mean, what do you need to have between your ears to even remotely consider losing, and then finding, 50 millions of someone else's money as normal? Such is life? Where? Other than in government agencies, of course.
That horse left the barn a long time ago. Over the past several years, the word "fascistic" (and "fascist", obviously) has become so overused that now it just means "something I don't like." Just like "awesome" now means "pretty good."

You can say the piece was biased if you want.

But to apply the description "cold-blooded" seems, well, quite weird.
The fumes are from flux (usually rosin), not lead. They are mostly safe, just breathe out while you're soldering. Soldering should hardly leave a bad smell. If the room does smell bad after soldering, you might be accidentally burning something else, like plastic insulation.
I suspect some portion of this can more pixels or not, be attributed to the introduction of notched screens.
Can GLP-1 Be a Target for Reward System Related Disorders?
I have a friend in AA. I'm not sure how to measure if she's been "successful" or not.

After completing the steps the first time, she relapsed after a few months. After the second time, she went a bit longer, but didn't quite make a year.

She's on her 3rd time now. It's been over a year since she last drank. She's made significant positive life changes and this time feels different.

The last two times she constantly talked about fighting the urge to drink. This time she has no urges and nothing to fight.

So I guess she's successful now? We'll never really know until she dies, right? Because she could relapse 10/15/20 years from now. I assume they have some arbitrary cutoff of sobriety as "success", but how many people relapse after that cutoff?

I'm proud of my friend and hope she stays sober forever, but I also check in with her often to make sure she's staying on track (She has asked me to do this). She says this accountability helps.

I'm not sure what my point is, just that "success" when it comes to sobriety is very complicated and not just yes or no.

I've never heard of a crypto wallet that was not open source. The coinbase one certainly is.

That doesn't mean there won't be hacks and backdoors though.

You also need to build them from the codebase yourself if you want to be completely sure that you're running the code that's visible (though maybe there's a better way to verify this with Android/iOS apps?)
Yep. I've seen "rigorous" A/B testing regimes set up based on a p<0.05 requirement that then went straight into "we'll keep running this until we reach significance" and "this one's clearly trending towards significance, we should just implement it now" nonsense.

The simple may see it as astroturfing, others see it as an observation by those paying attention. I'm now living in a house I own without a mortgage because 20 years ago I bought a house and didn't rent. Utilities and property taxes are my only expenses. Yes, there is maintenance but if you don't think that's also factored into rent you are beyond delusional. Landlords aren't going to lose money out of the goodness of their hearts. I haven't had a car payment in over a decade because I take care of my stuff. The car goes in the garage; I don't fill my garage with a bunch of useless stuff I will likely never touch again (or pay someone else to store it!).
Common sense stuff like the above, sadly, isn't common sense any more - so hence pithy phrases like own nothing and like it. A modern day emperor has no clothes, if you will.

Mosh has been effectively unmaintained since long before QUIC even existed.
It should be rewritten to use QUIC, except that QUIC's requirement for TLS certificates rather than generic asymmetric cryptography basically breaks any integrations like this.

Not really. Fast (immutable) settlement is terrible for humans. Self custody is more or less incompatible with our modern world. And despite that, there are ways to do both without crypto—hand someone stacks of cash and keep gold in a safe under the floorboard. Both of these options exist.

This sounds like a majority of software engineers (and their direct managers) asking to add more CPU and RAM, when software is slow, instead of analysing a problem.

I guess mechanic's time is more valuable than parts.
The problem is that bad soldering irons are infuriating. I started with super cheap one and it didn't work at all. I upgraded to $20 adjustable one that worked for a while but is inconsistent. I thought it was my bad technique until this thread but sounds like it is the quality.

The $25 Pinecil sounds good and is probably your best option. I may go for soldering station since I can afford it.

Ah, see that's how we indulge in "planet destroying" activities - by associating that guilt with someone else. :)
I love your optimism. I predict the GP is correct though, since everyone will want one of those Mercedes megavans to set up a comfortable bed or office while stuck in traffic. There's no way I'm going to sleep or work in a tiny self driving smartcar.

Since they'll autopark or circle anyway, their size no longer becomes a limiting factor for most people.
It's hyperbole, but the comparison isn't without some merit. My grandma stopped using it because it's troublesome, and I've heard many people voice the same. Getting into an iron lung each night would also be ... troublesome.
OpenBSD had pretty poor support for SMP for quite a while, but lots of work has gone into fixing that in the last decade. That plus how much smaller the OpenBSD footprint is than, say, Linux, and you might find these days it performs pretty well.
Amazing project, one that will seemingly go on for the foreseeable future. This is quite a labor of love, and it shows. It is very interesting to see the bifuracted comments: either but why (these are the people, probably mostly younger who just don't see the point) or PalmOS-based were so cool (cleaner, simpler, etc). I think Dmitri's project makes clear that there was a huge difference between the experience of PalmOS as products and the way they were created as software and hardware. Yes, many of the shortcuts and hacky looking design decisions taken 20+ years ago seem inexplicable today. Many were made based on the constraints of the time (supply chain, expertise on the team, bloodymindedness, etc) but ultimately the biggest driver was a great PDA experience, more a portable, always on digital replacement for paper that could do several things well, rather than everything you could imagine. Great ideas for power management, sophisticated kernel not so much.
I guess it's the season of AI fear. Humans don't rarely drive to their endurance levels now, so why would removal of a rarely-used limit affect much?

8 hours (4+4) spent in commuting, driving or not, is an entire life. This isn't a realistic concern, but something pulled out of a cyberpunk novel.

Cars can park away from you and come back to pick you up. This should alleviate parking problems, and reduce parking-space-search based congestion on the street.

Learning to drive was never that hard.
> Apple IIs were in most schools. That was what stood out to most people - out of all the various and weird computers on the market at the time, and before IBM clones they were different, Apple was the one "endorsed" by the school system.

That's why I think, more than any specific feature of the hardware, the real driver of Apple II success in US was always the one-and-only Minnesota Educational Computing Consortium [1]. I don't think that Apple II would have had anything near as much as the same sort of US-wide reach without its "PBS of educational software" existing at that critical juncture point in history. "Every" school in the country needed an Apple II to run MECC software, because MECC software was easily approved to be parts of the curriculum.

The Macintosh was seen as the computer for education riding on the coat-tails of MECC products and the few produced for the early Macintosh. PCs became more common in education exactly as soon as MECC was destroyed by vultures and schools needed to start penny pinching because there were few other as easily approved pieces of software to replace MECC's brief central place in the US classroom.

(The fall of MECC was its own sad reminder of how privatization often leads to vultures and scavenging. It is interesting to wonder what might have happened had MECC better followed the "PBS" model, and possibly gotten more national arts and sciences resources behind it, instead of IPO then buyout by vultures.)

> It seems like mechanics really don't like digging into the electrical part of the car.

this is like saying that computer programmers don't like digging into the proprietary and binary blobs from other vendors.

I am trying to say it's not fair to blame mechanics because even if they want to dig into the electronics, the car manufacturers take active measures to prevent 'random mechanics' from digging around.

I suppose there are many rational and reasonable way to justify why this is so; probably all having some form of "because safety" and "because IP of vendors".
More complaining zero research, why I not surprised…

> where do we get colder compared to a reference earth without increased gases?

Wow. Suppose it’s fall and someone says “the days are getting colder.” Do you assume it’s in relation to some arbitrary point thousands of years ago or last month?

Context is often implied in the written word, and you seem to have issues following normal conventions. I don’t mean this as an insult, but there’s probably some adult education classes that you might find helpful.
For each element, I believe there is a combination of electrolysis, electrowinning, leaching and other hydrometallurgical and refining processes that is used to refine from ore into a pure state.

In the article, lithium is extracted from the recycled cell materials. Relatively cheap lithium can be extracted because it occupies position #3 in the periodic table and has very different chemical properties than most of the other elements. According to the article, the expensive elements, occupying positions #24 through #30 in the periodic table, are left together in the black mass and re-sold.

Separating elements #24 through #30 is not yet easy and economical. The central challenges are:
A. The elements are all adjacent to one another in the periodic table
B. The finished outputs must be extremely pure in order to be suitable for use in battery materials
C. Centuries of advancement in mining, metallurgical and process research and development focuses (mostly) on how to get (mostly) pure elements from ores

That's not to say we won't get there. I just think that opening a cell grinding and breakdown facility isn't a particularly large step in the right direction. I actually think it may be a step in the wrong direction, and that cell processing facilities should perhaps be focusing on complexity at the cell disassembly level, processing individual cells to mechanically separate elements, given that cells enter recycling facilities as attached/assembled but relatively nicely separated casings, cathode and anode foils, and cathode and anode powders.

If there are large subsequent advancements in chemical refining processes for separating elements #24 through #30, my above assessments will be proven wrong.
90% of the reason tube amps live on is because all the cool kids use them because the cool kids are in bands and tube amps are easy to fix. A dozen tube types and a good supply of resistors and capacitors is all that is needed to fix most tube amps which means you can get your amp fixed asap at any repair shop, common parts they all have in stock. With solid state there is a very high probability that parts will need to be ordered since no one can keep the very large number of possible parts those amps use in stock so you end up buying a new amp to finish the tour with and ship the old one home or abandon/sell it.
Since the company absolutely controls the car and can enforce revocation of the license, why does the purchase have to be non-refundable to begin with?

Talk to a doctor. Idk why OP spent so much time solving what a doctor could tell them. I had similar symptoms and doc pinned it on narcolepsy before I could finish explaining. Googling symptoms never turned it up. Getting tested for sleep apnea is very easy with an at-home device. Narcolepsy is more involved. Long COVID is another candidate. So is thyroid which requires a blood test.
