Why would that be odd? Most people encounter memes in the wild far removed from their point of origin. They have only the context in which it is used to interpret its meaning. Even if it had anti-semitic origins that doesn't mean it is used as such in the vast majority of instances any more than every use of Pepe or Groyper is.

It is precisely this sort of blackwhite thinking that cast serious doubts on the validity of the author's work and really just makes them look like someone with an axe to grind... or, to put it another way: *HONK HONK*

Which in my case is entirely true.
I would take this document more seriously if they removed the Canadian government logo, I remember in early 2021 how easy it was to exfiltrate passport and other PII from the a certain Quebec gov agency agencies, because they had web apps written in ASP.Net and didn't do proper authorization/authentication measures, so anyone with basic knowledge of curl and python could easily exfiltrate mass amounts of data. People are stupid, they upload sensitive documents (passport info) and other things under the assumption that the government is competent enough to secure their stuff.
Yes, that's a huge problem with university publicity offices. I've made the comment on some battery announcements that it's either Nobel Prize material or total bullshit.

The big insight seems to be that you need some robots, but most of the job can be done by simple machines that use gravity, air jets, screens, and magnets. The robots just pull out stuff that wasn't properly sorted by brute-force means. The robotics enthusiasts wanted to do everything with robots, which is not cost effective, and the heavy-machinery people tried to adapt techniques from ore mining to recycling. It turns out that a combination of those approaches, plus the air-jet optical sorter technology used for fruit and vegetable sorting, can do the whole job in a cost-effective way.

This is what production engineering is all about.

We did this to eliminate the need for kernel extensions to create L2 interfaces.
This is a failure of imagination.

On a federated network where you can have your own server/pod (think PeerTube or Diaspora) you absolutely can have a custom recommendation algorithm. And for news you can have custom filters in your RSS reader that trim the feeds you are subscribed to to only the desired articles and apply a custom order.

And even in a Cloud/SaaS scenario like Youtube, one can imagine a settings page where you can configure each recommend view in some domain specific programming language using an API. Imagine something like IFTTT but for configuring your preffered recommendations views.

Notice that something you do not want is beeing recommended to you? Just open settings and tweak the algo.

This is just like feeding a custom comparator function to a built-in sorting function using dependency injection.

Of course, this would not be in the platforms interest and will probably never happen.

It really is not that hard to imagine if you have the mindset that you should be able to control your own computation instead of being at the whims of a corporation.

> Untrue

Right, organizations routinely admit they are getting too much funding and ask for it to be reduced. There are so many examples of this, perhaps you could provide just one?

> They chose to represent themselves as having their essential operations funded by the government

Again, so they don't lose that funding. I don't think any of them could have predicted a right wing billionaire would buy Twitter and give them a misleading label because he doesn't understand the difference between state and public media.
That commenter probably means that there is no known reliable way solution that generalizes to many diverse countries. Pointing out the existence of a country with high birth rates isn’t a dispute of that claim, since as far as I know “just become exactly like Israel” isn’t really an option.

> Chipotle caters to customers of means.

Really weird take. A burrito is $10 after tax in Seattle, a city where lunch can easily be $15 or even $30. While there are certainly cheaper, lower-quality, less-amount-of-food options, Chipotle is definitely not catering to the high-income population. (Price or otherwise)
Thank you for building and sharing this!

Have you tested this on a large photo/video collection? How does it perform with (say) 20k images?

Excited to try this out for my own needs, as long as it can handle real-world usage.
I wonder if it's feasible to use even less RAM per worker. The pioneers of time-sharing would have considered 3MB per user extravagant. Of course, it practically doesn't matter now, but still, I wonder if it would be feasible to reduce the heap size per isolate by at least one order of magnitude.
Seems like maybe it's not actually the "dog whistle" conspiracy the links claim and it's possible people just see it as " the author thinks something societal or political is ridiculous" as the GP mentioned?

Weirdly, the best "pizza appliance" I've found for this is the kamado, which I can get up to about 800 degrees without meaningfully damaging the gaskets (tho I expect it reduces their useful lifespans) - it shouldn't work, because the heat source is in the wrong spot, but it definitely does if you let it rip beforehand and then add the convector plate afterward

One might consider that the Quebec government having such significant problems is all the more motivation for the Communications Security Establishment to drive change.
What changes happened? Can you be more specific?

All I can see is:

Russia invaded Ukraine, the great German idea of relying on Russian gas to manage the intermitent nature of Energiewende dreams went down the drain.

Even more coal and lignite were dug up, more burnt ashes with plenty of radioactive particles were put in German air for all to inhale.

LNG terminals were built to import x3 price American shale gas, making our collective CO2 blanket even thicker...
Nah. Sleeper mid-90's Acura. Paintjob was aftermarket.
It's noteworthy that in the Sephora case for California the AG explicitly called out the Global Privacy Control (gpc) as something that companies need to honor.

From https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-bont...: "“Technologies like the Global Privacy Control are a game changer for consumers looking to exercise their data privacy rights. But these rights are meaningless if businesses hide how they are using their customer's data and ignore requests to opt-out of its sale,” said Attorney General Bonta. “I hope today’s settlement sends a strong message to businesses that are still failing to comply with California’s consumer privacy law. My office is watching, and we will hold you accountable."
> It’s not true that biological sex is completely deterministic in the behavior of non-human animals

I don’t think anyone claims it is completely deterministic.

But it is very significant, to the extent that is may as well as be completely for purposes of discussion or publishing papers.

While there are female lions that act in an atypical manner, the vast majority act similarly enough to say something like “female lions hunt for the pride” without need an asterisk.
ultimately you can repair an awful lot of things, so... suppose some small metal bracket holding something up has begun rusting because something scraped the paint off, or hit it, and its also a bit bent.

this piece of metal costs $50 or so from the manufacturer, which admittedly is borderline theft, but what can you do?, while i have the cab off the tractor, i may aswell replace it. I could opt to strip the paint off, either by using toxic chemicals, or abrasively. But now I need to also do a little welding to fix it up, then sand it down again, degrease it, and give it a new paint job. This took me around 2-3 hours to do. Do we repair this item or chuck it in the scrap pile?
I know this can be done manually (and I do), but the issue with that is that:
1. It's manual
2. Single point of failure of this server that was needed

My point was that MagicDNS is implemented in the Tailscale client on each machine (fault tolerant, 0ms latency) and has almost all the things necessary (DNS resolver, push mechanism for record updates) except for a custom defined zone.

Running `drill @100.100.100.100 <node_name>.<magic_dns_domain>.ts.net` is 0ms because it's local, and doesn't depend on a single DNS server running somewhere on my Tailscale network.
Got it, you added up 8 and 5. Question remains:

> Also is 4% as opposed to 1% a change that alters any of the underlying fundamentals ?
Yeah, tried to have it describe an image that it downloaded from a Dropbox link, and it spat out junk. Ah well. Guess the GPT4 in ChatGPT isn't the multi-modal model.
I think the chart is either extremely poorly made or intentionally misleading?

> There's a noticable spike approximately in April and another one around August

> Was that caused by the trucker protests? No idea. But there are lots of interesting looking spikes in this chart.

Precisely. They simply marked two occasions they don't like. Might as well correlate with mercury being in retrograde.

What is the baseline? The mean? The year over year? Look at the numbers about 100+-50 "bad" tweets on a given month.. this isn't a serious effort, I am embarrassed on their behalf.
Ask it to do the reverse. Connecting loosely related points to see the "hidden shape" behind them is an important feature of mind. Why do we see a cow above? That's just a bunch of lines and circle. The cow is a made up "meaning" behind these lines.

Edit: it's not unreasonable to give an LLM such test. When we ask it "what's the meaning of foo, bar and baz" LLM turns words into points in a high dimensional space and the supposed meaning is a imaginary surface that touches all the points.
It's a new weird human spider sense! I'm getting it more in recruiter emails these days for sure
There's no free tier that I know of. But, yes, it is drastically better, and it's specifically much less prone to hallucinate "proofs" that the previous answer is correct if you challenge it.

If you provide the inputs for some specific task where you expect GPT-4 to fail in this manner, I can give it a try.
Yes, you delete by appending a delete event:

https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/7d792055372ce1af...

Then clients and relays SHOULD act as if the referenced event is deleted. This is different than MUST, probably because there’s no way to guarantee it happens. It’s also possible the delete event doesn’t make it to everywhere that received the initial event.
gpsd is a service daemon that monitors one or more GPSes or AIS receivers attached to a host computer through serial or USB ports, making all data on the location/course/velocity of the sensors available to be queried on TCP port 2947 of the host computer.

It doesn't do much beyond multiplexing/marshalling. The actual calculations are done in the receiver.
Interesting.

I am in an non-casual office. There isn't a strict dress code, just that it's "business appropriate".
This is exactly how dog whistles are supposed to work. People affected understand the real meaning, and out-groups (along with people who read things pedantically and cannot code switch or process nuance) are bewildered by the heightened emotions surrounding the communications.

This particular dog whistle developed right out loud and lots of people still can't get it. It's amazing to see.

https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/clown-pepe-honk-honk-clown-wo...

This one does have a minimal standing usage by non-assholes, but there's not much ROI on differentiating, since "honk honk" isn't actionable or interesting criticism regardless of the political opinions of the speaker.

I've been thinking about buying a Ninja Creami - James Hoffman did a video using one and it looks super neat.

It's basically the same as the Pacojet, whose patent has now expired - thinking a combination blender and drill press, which will mill down a frozen-solid cylinder of ice cream / sorbet into soft serve, within just 2-3 minutes. The advantage is obvious - you can prepare ahead of time and blend when you're ready to serve, and you can do several flavors in short succession if you have enough ice cream tubs.
Edit: My bad it has to do with my Adblocker. Its all good now. Cheers

Super cool! Thank you for bringing this to the world. Kids are gonna love this. I'm unable to get it running on the web demo unfortunately though :( Post image upload, I'm redirected to https://sketch.metademolab.com/canvas with a blank screen with the grid image. Without any error message, it isn't obvious if the issue is with the images I uploaded ( which probably is the case ). Will try the Python library and play around.

This is not such a grim future since it’ll mean that SWEs still have a job. My fear is that AIs get powerful enough for MBAs to create robust software without the assistance of SWEs. A world run solely by MBAs is a scary future.
> When people don’t sort their trash properly, batches of recyclables can become contaminated and compost can be improperly discarded into landfills.

I've read this many times over the years, but my intuition tells me that if this was true, no single batch of trash would ever be usable. All the data we have is that people are terrible at following instructions, much less when there's no way to be caught doing the wrong thing, yet I'm supposed to believe that all the 100 neighbours that share trash with me are all doing the right thing and not compromising trash loads?

This sounds to me like not using phones in airplanes, if it were actually a problem they'd take them away from you.
I don't think the difference between pounds and kilos really matters to purchasing food, but labeling everything with a per 100g nutrition facts rather than just whatever BS serving size the manufacturer makes up is a significant improvement. You can buy oil in the US that is listed as containing 0 calories and 0 fat per serving (and 1000+ servings per container). Not that that's a unit system issue.

Good luck getting consumers or technicians to adhere to a standardized listening environment (if that is, in fact, something that we'd even want).

I work for a consultancy that designs high-end recording studios. The single biggest factor distorting playback of audio is the room itself. And the type of room design that is required to provide an even frequency and time-domain response begins at $100k to construct. Not including our fee. For this reason I think it's out of reach for 99.9% of consumers.

We have a hard enough time convincing professional record producers and engineers of the need for a well-treated space. Many simply don't know what they don't know. And for the ones who recognize the importance of good monitoring and good acoustics many of them STILL don't know how good a room can actually be. How good it can truly sound.

There are many working professionals who've gone most of their career without experiencing a room/monitor systems that gets out of the way and allows the music the be transmitted directly to the listener. When you experience this it is visceral.

This makes it a very tough solution to sell. Even to the people who are SUPPOSED to know. So I'm pessimistic about the ability to provide that to consumers.
doesn't sound useless.
seems weird to me that one would want to do any of these things inside vim... though it should be possible with the right plugins... but why? just use a window manager like screen or tmux to multi-task.

Those industrial robots don't drive around an office building with people around. They can't be repurposed to solve other problems. These Google robots have already been doing other tasks around the MTV campus (for demonstration and research purposes, not yet practically useful).
I'm only speaking from personal experience and mostly with Typescript for both but CodeWhisperer feels like it has more lag before offering a completion and the completions it offers are often worse. It duplicates lines that already exist, it adds inappropriate indentions, where Copilot very helpfully finishes your line and stops, CodeWhisperer tries to add three more lines entirely and you reject it far more often. It's not worthless in this current stage, but it's not something to strongly praise either.

The security checks and OSS attributions feel very much like what "enterprise" software does when they know they can't compete, they tick boxes instead.
Just for context Sean Olive was involved in peer reviewed research to correlate objective measurements with subjective preferences in hifi. He's a leading authority in this topic area.

But this GoogleAI demo is about having a robotic janitor for your office. It’s also about recruiting and showing how much capital gets invested in R&D. Just one of these robots could have paid to restore the household of the guy who flipped his life to accept Google’s non-job[1].

Really, the point of this demo is not to suggest Google could make a product. It’s to suggest if you keep applying to Google and get accepted on you 3rd / last try, then you will be invited to work on chat app infrastructure for 2 years while other dudes at the company are doing this depicted robot thing and you get to watch. Then after 2 years you might be invited to transfer to their team to clean up their chat app back-end. It’s all about recruiting, see?
