And then lets run the same statistics for administrations from the other side. After all, state-controlled media would have to follow switching government lines on this, so it'll show Republicans loving NPR and Democrats hating it during the previous administration, correct?
Absolute fucktons.

Now I've answered your as-good-as-rhetorical question, where are you going to go with this? What's your point, your proposal, your next step?

(NB, I'm an atheist too)
A better than google has existed for a while now. A new generation of web tools is what we've been asking for.
State funded media is a phrase, it has meaning beyond the literal meaning of the words. Wikipedia's 'State media' page seems to have it covered:

> State media or government media are media outlets that are under financial and/or editorial control of the state or government, directly or indirectly.
[1]

Even that page makes a distinction between state funded and state media[2], but that is not how youtube[3] or others [4], [5], and I am sure many others[6 time based google] do not make the distinction. For better or worse 'State funded media' is often interchangeable with 'state media' and NPR is not state media even if some of its funds come from the state.

There's nothing wrong with sympathy. I have all the sympathy in the world for anyone who works at a software company. Those FANGs can be especially toxic.

The fact is, how you spend your money, it's a choice, especially if you're single. For singles, no excuses. In my twenties, i rented a room, slept on a surfboard and ate oatmeal. If you combine that with a Meta salary, you could retire in 5-10 years.
How does this description of your hardware purchases relate to the post you replied to? Or to the news article?

Yes, the 10900k as the biggest 14nm consumer chip was a power guzzler and is bad compared to Intel/AMD/Apples current line up on new processes.
At this point... I'm actually ready to play advocate for such a ban. I'm also not convinced that it would be unconstitutional, as that would call ID for gun purchases, alcohol purchases, and similar into question. And some might say as well that social media isn't a physical threat, but that's assuming that threats to children's mental health are less of a priority than physical threats.

As for enforceability, or "they'll just use a VPN!" I don't really care. It's still a crime to speed even if 25% of the road speeds, and it would still be worse without Speed Limits. Criminals sometimes obtain guns, but it doesn't mean I don't want Gun ID laws.
Would love to see it extended for academic research in general !
Yeah. Depends on a lot, but only small independent things really care about power. For the rest, put a bigger battery on it or plug it in... and nearly the entire consumer market for IOT can just plug it in.
I have an ongoing chat in chatGPT where it's instructed to every once in a while ignore my question and just respond with "Shut up, nerd."
How much would it cost to handle your peak load with dedicated servers and no scaling?
Completely unrelated, but your comment about stenography reminded me how our French president announced the COVID lockdown. It was a speech full of key information (some I could not hear because when he announced that the schools would close children erupted in yells) but that was not the best part.

The best part was that the speech was also signed for the deaf (that part was normal) and subtitled by a ..., well, ... stenography trainee.

He or she had all wrong, could not keep the speed, was mixing words and skipping whole parts. At some point they seem to have said to themselves "oh fuck it" and were typing more or less random words.

The whole country was with them, hoping that they will go on typing until the end (which they did). That was a memorable event and people actually learned about stenography and the fact that they apparently use a special keyboard in the form of a butterfly.
I don’t agree that the nocebo effect can be tested in a clinical trial which only has willing participants.

If there was a person who’d rather take a bullet than the vaccine, don’t you think the nocebo affect would be stronger? My feeling is anyone who requests an exemption due to their beliefs should be given it because you can’t measure the resoluteness of their beliefs, religious or not.
This heritability redefinition thing is just a bad-faith move by people on the left to avoid the debate in my opinion. The standard historical understanding of the word "heritability" is exactly what you said. It's like redefining gender or sex or the like.
What would be good approaches to also implement a personality layer, that can be more complex. Something like an effect box over the LLM that contains the info.
ISTR something about that from a few years ago, and thinking about the eventual possibility about triangulating nuclear subs and carriers with a network of such 'sensors'. Through the whole earth, maybe. In real-time.

Wouldn't that be something?
The author really undersells how difficult/nearly impossible this is and will be for a long time, at the very least. If the market transfers successfully from miner subsidy to transaction fees, then it will always be nearly impossible.
Generative AI basically unlocks the metaverse, since all the 3D environment can now be generated.
The metaverse changes people's context and senses with generated data. Interestingly AI will paint a new world for humans to learn and experience new situations more often, more easily on a broader spectrum.
Exciting !

I see. I'm a big fan of DSLs, but the internal vs. external distinction is not something I've seen articulated before.

For now, I'm treating Sheet Markup as an external DSL, which can be embedded in a Markdown document using a fenced code block. But there are certainly benefits (and costs) to developing an internal DSL for spreadsheets along the lines of what you're suggesting.
I've never heard demons and imps as an argument.

Can you explain to me why children need to see drag shows, which are about sexual attraction, and why they need porn in the classroom?
Tell that to Starlink.

And social media companies are more like convenience stores that also carry newspapers. The large majority of tweets are not by media outlets.
Where do you see this kind of Meaning in physics?
In physics we have of example the Emergence of fluid dynamics and is clearly defined as a behaviour or property of system that does not derive simply from the sum of combination of it's subsystems. (it's not observed in small quantities of particles and it's not inherent to the particles)
We have for example the Emergent behaviour of a school of fish Swimming in a new behaviour that is not observed on few fish etc. That is the mental model of "Emergence" most of us are familiar with. A new behaviour that can not be observed or "explained by" the sum of the parts of system.
There is no metaphysics here.
What is observed here is not new or different behaviour, it's simple a more precise and extensive version of the same behaviour.
What is observed here is like comparing a 2Mpix resolution camera with a 12Mpix low light camera and saying that seeing more details in photo taken at 8pm is an emergent property of the camera because those details where not there in the previous version.
Is there a full video of the interview somewhere? I saw a full audio version posted, but I think full video version would be more informative.
Not even remotely useful. If it was, there would be no more research on fusion reactors. They'd just process the heaps of government data available from both full weapon tests & other research projects.
So I guess you haven't seen the Twitter Files, where the government did exactly that.
From their definition from a week ago: https://web.archive.org/web/20230404115255/https://help.twit...

> State-affiliated media is defined as outlets where the state exercises control over editorial content through financial resources, direct or indirect political pressures, and/or control over production and distribution. Accounts belonging to state-affiliated media entities, their editors-in-chief, and/or their prominent staff may be labeled.

> State-financed media organizations with editorial independence, like the BBC in the UK or NPR in the US for example, are not defined as state-affiliated media for the purposes of this policy.

Reply:

Unfortunately, the provided context does not include information about who won "Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo". The context provides information about the tournament, its dates, prize pool and participating teams, but not its winner. However, we can still provide some background information about the tournament and its format.

Isn't running Arch in prod considered brave still? Or has it become stable and predictable in the last few years I did not watch it?

Fair enough, supercomputers + cloud was optimistic. They can’t do 40 zettaflops.

Half of that, worst case, we could, though not triviallt. For bursts at a time. (Worst case because the math supercomputers designed to break encryption do is similar to that required to break Bitcoin.)

Practically speaking, were we to do this, we’d procure the ASICs. (And target in-jurisdiction mining, lowering the hurdle.) No private party is particularly incentivised to launch such an attack de novo. We may never need to actually attack: a law appropriating tens of billions to create a crypto deterrent would crash prices on its own.
I'm definitely among the unwilling.

I'm using nest secure now, anyone have any suggestions for a replacement?

At least they aren't killing my smoke alarms, though, they still can't automatically dispatch fire/police if there is smoke/fire, though they will dispatch if an alarm is triggered.
ARM is not open... You can license the IP.
So you're agreeing on their political affiliation? Let's just get that out of the way first.
Yes, that's intentional. Assuming “another | $1000” is on the 7th row, you would need to update the formula to:

=SUM(B2:B7)

to incorporate it into the sum.
How long until we need a license for using the Internet?

Flamebaiting? So it’s ok when people are talking about NPR or Twitter, but not being against promotion of non-English language in the US? Come on..

On a side note: I’ve requested for my account to be deleted multiple times. Requests have been denied. Until then..

Never would I conduct personal direct attacks, but I will speak my mind.

I’m more than happy to point out more than a dozen terms violations of others within the past week that seem to go untouched. Either moderate all based on terms or don’t.
Yeah, Facebook's Metaverse pivot made VR pretty toxic right at the point where they were getting a significant level of adoption amongst the public.

They needed to focus on making a few more games with the mass appeal of Beat Saber and making entry level machines a bit cheaper again so there was enough users to make the social aspect actually have some value.
This seems to be an adtech company specializing in a vertical (healthcare). They do not have anything to do with the caring of the health of humans. Apologies if you didn't imply that.
> Adult sites are also supposed to check that, and we all know how effective this is.

Actually I don't know if that's effective at all and I couldn't find any data on that either, care to share?
Germany would disagree.
and yet the Twitter Files show they do, in fact, consult.
The Wii U perfected this, but it only worked on its own tablet.
Since it is controlled by the GOP, I wonder if this is a way to find out who does not "support" the party or start a Social Score like the CCP did a few years ago.

More and more it seems that party is loosing its original outlook.
"a maximum penalty of 30 years in prison "

SBs were very strong against massed battleship fleets when coordinated properly. You'd have a scout get a warp-in close to an enemy fleet and bring a bomber wing in cloaked, then everyone uncloaks simultaneously to bomb and warp off. I have fond memories of doing bomb runs and instantly having a dozen killmails pop in my inbox.
2950x is a weird comparison when it was two generations older than what AMD had available at the time. Also the 2950x still did 37422972 NPS which is still roughly 3x higher. I think it goes without saying that if you look back enough generations you will eventually find an AMD/Intel product that gives less performance/watt.

The 5950x was also available for sale at the time, a system based on it was cheaper, and it does 54029460 NPS in stockfish which is over 4x faster.

It's not like the Mac Studio is too slow for chess engines to be usable for purposes like analysis, but the thing is if you make that argument than why not get a much cheaper Ryzen 5 or Intel i5 based system which is still faster than the Mac Studio? Say a Ryzen 5600g which is also pretty power efficient and can fit in a nice little box and push a few displays?

Overall I feel pretty disappointed in all of this. It seems like they've been dropping all the original stuff like Raised by Wolves or The Nevers and just making a bunch of spin off/remakes of existing stuff like a Harry Potter TV show and GoT spin offs. Just seem dedicated to only taking what they think are safe bets.
Amazing! The spoken demo reminds me of Victor Borge's Phonetic Punctuation. This would be such a great way to spend so much time getting slightly more efficient...
Based on what I just read, I think it would take significant effort to outline the precise differences between the Metaverse and the Internet. Kind of like "Web 2.0" which was just a bizarre way of saying "The internet, but it has changed gradually over time, as most thing do", as if we needed to be reminded that technologies are not eternally static.
nitpicky. would you prefer an insect that can't fly away?
Can you try it again without WA?

I'm curious how often ChatGPT makes mistakes because its temperature makes it sometimes randomly give wrong answers intentionally, to be generatively creative.
Is anyone proposing that?
That maybe a factor but it's also possible the attention economy is peaking. We always knew attention available is fixed.

Google and Apple have reported slight slow down. Smartphone market in the west has saturated and not growing. Ppl have so many other options where they can spend their time online. Its possible everyone is seeing less ad revenue.
And you're out here making blanket statements suggesting "we" did not pay attention to our own country's piecemeal, half-assed, state-by-state COVID response, instead painting it as a brutal federal crackdown. Lord.
Society functioned and had revolutions against monarchies with absolute power without an internet. We'll survive.

Also, nobody is proposing that.
I think you are being unreasonable with the OP. The reason why this is confusing is not because some people want to listen to podcasts on their TV. The Apple TV comes with the podcast app preinstalled. The reason this is confusing is having a second audio input connected to the same audio system that needs the Apple TV on. The solution solves a very real world problem that has nothing to do with user preferences. The app is actually terrible at listening to podcasts in the dark because the podcast player is on a completely separate device. That's the confusing part.
I know it's off-topic, but this simply baffles me about 3D printing. I have a 3D printer and I plan on buying more, but when you look at the most downloaded models on a huge website like printables.com, the number 1 has a bit more than 200K downloads, and the second drops all the way down to only 83K. Only 83,000 people downloaded the 2nd most downloaded model :|

Every time I look at the numbers I realize how niche of a hobby it is, despite being easier and easier (and cheaper and cheaper) to get into and has pretty much endless applications.
Oopsie, I turned the visible universe into paperclips.
As a bit of background, the HUD is a Reflection Technology 'Private Eye' display, which went on to become the display technology behind the Nintendo Virtual Boy. Very neat devices, powered by an 8-bit 68HC05 and very much a self-contained display (though I generally drive them with a Pi these days).
No point really in trying to get into AI "the right way" at this point unless you bring some side specialty into the equation imo. The experts in the field are already in place and the space moves so quickly that you likely won't be able to meaningfully catch up. Asking chatGPT to generate a reading list (and it recommending a subreddit) is an especially concerning insight into the depth of research you will end up doing. Might as well just follow the current AI luminaries and parrot what they say and get a job at a non-AI company that way, until we are all replaced by GPT-X.
Your examples are not functionally equivalent. In the first example the callers of both functions are blocked, in the second the callers are not blocked.
The constitutional best alternative to banning social media. My only concern is its implication for anonymity... which Big Tech has already shredded anyway.
Twitter was also an extremist echo chamber. It's how the January 6th insurrection happened, a violent attack on the US Capitol that was organized, launched, and coordinated in real-time on Twitter. You can't do that if voices of sanity are seeping in. It's just that Twitter as many echo chambers, some bigger and more dangerous than others.
We already have witchdoctors for that. I don't need my medical professionals trying to deceive me.

> Bitcoin has been mined for over a decade and never came even close.

The problem with using past performance of the Bitcoin network as an indicator of future performance is that the exponential nature of halvings means that each decade is a vastly less subsidized environment for the network than the one that came before it. Over the last decade the network has given ballpark 4.2mm BTC to miners for their services; there are now about 1.7mm BTC available for miners for all time.
Utah just passed the bill this is based on. I'm sure it will in court for awhile.

I don't see any text about how they're suppose to verify that consent.
Though the device on the other end may not cooperate, like if it's playing something that uses HDCP it might stop playing when there's no display on the other end of the connection to handshake with. No idea if this is a problem with an Apple TV though.
This works anywhere, I just typed this with it.
Hmm like a camera-based full-body theremin?
> you only have to read a few more short paragraphs

Which, while not hard, is fair to classify as confusing design.
Killing off sparrows is only one example of crazy/random/destructive policies that are a regular occurrence under communism. Some others (not in any order):

- The USSR sometimes overproduced cigarettes, so ran ad campaigns to convince people to start smoking.

- The Holomodor, in which Ukraine was starved by exporting (stealing) all its grain, including the grain needed to plant next season's harvest, and when starving peasants tried to flee they were then banned from leaving.

- In modern China, ghost cities full of buildings nobody is living in.

- Stalin's mass execution of basically everyone who mattered in Soviet society, including virtually all of his military and intelligence leaders, which put the USSR into such a weakened state that Hitler is on record as saying now is the time to strike because the Soviets will never be so weak again.

- The single-minded obsession with steel production.

- In NK the government maintains a list of approved hair cuts. There are 28 approved styles and anyone with a haircut that's not on the list will be punished. Additionally, punishment for crimes are often levelled against the families of the criminals.

It's inevitable that these sorts of things happen because the goals of communism are deeply unnatural (e.g. banning markets, central planning) and can therefore only be implemented through totalitarian power, which lacks sufficient bandwidth and flexibility to incorporate feedback loops. So everything goes off the rails because the people making decisions are blinded to the outcomes.
This was my impression as well. When reading his nitpicky reasons a question was scored zero out of nine (the same as leaving it blank!) made me think that sitting this course would have me hating his guts by the end of it.

> I think one disadvantage of putting everything (nginx, web server, database, monitoring tools, etc.) in one machine is that suddenly your machine is exposing a myriad of ports to the internet and one mistake on your side (e.g., misconfigured auth module) is all what's needed to compromise your entire service.

All the Linux distributions I got to know use sensible defaults so that critical services don't bind to a public-facing interface / bind only to localhost, e.g. mariadb and mysql on Debian.

Besides that, Hetzner's "Robot" interface allows to configure which ports/IP addresses you allow access to your Hetzner server.
To be fair, using Google as a search engine is much, much useful than it used to be
I was thinking it would be interesting to get the model to generate timestamps with the messages. Then you could actually queue the messages until that time. It would be like a real conversation.

Of course if you send a message before the AI does it re-runs and produces a new future message with a new timestamp.
Could a phone accelerometer achieve comparable detection response and play a warning sound?
It's absolutely ridiculous that:
1) most social coordination happens on private corporate servers
2) we'll soon be unable to use those servers without showing our "papers"
Lightning does more than just USB depending on how you signal the pins, including factory debug and diagnostics connections.

See also: the Bonobo JTAG/SWD debugging cable over Lightning. https://shop.lambdaconcept.com/home/37-bonobo-debug-cable.ht...

(While this 'technically' requires extra device flags, it's still the fact that Lightning has lots of hidden modes underneath its multiplexer.)

You’ve supported my point: there’s no consistent forced state narrative. Bias for or against a political party is orthogonal to whether the state itself is executing editorial control.
