Google did not set out to build a robot that sorts recycling. I've seen these robots many times and know a few people who work(ed) on them, and I had no idea they were even doing this task.

These robots are a research platform for solving many tasks. There's no point in comparing them to industrial, stationary robots in a recycling facility. It's like comparing a smartphone camera to a fax machine.
I mostly use it for writing C, python, latex, and bash. I know I’m losing a bit of efficiency by not carrying a config, but I consider configless emacs a bit more capable for my workflows than configless vim.
It’s high value to do the sorting in the office because the people in the office get entertained and feel prestige having such clever robots working for them. This is a recruiting project.
> Cats are often said to reveal their personalities subtly, over time. This was not the case with Bea, who startled our guests with her explosive hospitality protocol. She would dance on the kitchen counter, jump on visitors’ shoulders, lick their hair, and explore their ears, all the while issuing whispery meows and pigeonlike chirps. It goes without saying that she was magnificent.

I think that's exactly what humans love about cats. They really have personalities. Unlike any other domesticated animal, cats aren't tasked with any job. One often thinks about mousing cats, but that turns out to have much less historical evidence than humans just... loving cats! Having pet cats and human civilization appear to be essentially the same thing. The book "The Lion in the Living Room" is excellent if you're interested in this topic, and talks about P-22 at length. Even if you're not a cat person, it's a must read for LA residents or anyone interested in anthropology.

My cat Cleo is dramatically different than Bea, and she is also magnificent!
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) receives about half a billion dollars annually from Federal grants, and then channels that funding into subsidiaries like PBS and NPR.

https://cpb.org/appropriation/history

Funding from a benefactor is known to create bias.

I'm concerned about NPR's statements which almost resembles some kind of pathology, because the statements look like a mix of denial and/or rationalisation. We are seeing outright denial, that they only get a little bit of federal funding... or rationalisation like that funding is just a small portion of our tiny budget...

The fact is that in 2021 Public Radio received about ~$100 Million, and about the same in 2022. If these estimation are wrong, they are leaning towards the conservative side, and would likely go higher. I'm pulling the data from the CPB financial statements, and mostly glossing over the details, yanking data from the executive summary.

https://cpb.org/sites/default/files/aboutcpb/financials/audi...

Please, by all means dispute this data. I'd love to be persuaded that this is all somehow wrong. But right now it looks like NPR & PBS are both affiliated with the Federal government because they get significant funding from there, alongside donations.
I'm surprised there's no mention of temperature here, unless I missed it.

This is true but misleading. All of this stuff is driven by Chipotle having to deal with food safety issues at scale. They've had so many scandals that boil down to local managers skip food safety and they gave up and just made it impossible.

Chipotle pre-cuts and washes basically all the vegetables for speed and so you can't not wash them. They also sous vide the steak for the same reasons. They still cook the chicken in-house because par-cooking the chicken actually makes it more susceptible to salmonella.

The only one that isn't defendable is they stopped making the red and green salsa in house because they decided they were going to be a trade secret.

So we've moved from terrified of change, to embracing some changes and resisting others. Even in culture, Japanese fashion, art, architecture, music, entertainment, and cuisine have all seen recent changes.

Yet they refuse to change some social/cultural values. What makes this a phobia worth pathologizing, instead of a legitimate preference deserving of respect?

For example, when Kashmir decried being stripped of autonomy [1], were they also just being phobic and terrified of change?

This is a horse that’s been beaten to death. Avoid mixing up incidental duplication with harmful duplication. Don’t be afraid to refactor existing abstractions if things change. Rule of three and write everything twice are heuristics, not replacements for critical thinking. Almost always decompose or refactor instead of adding Boolean flags, unless it’s unimportant or trivial code. Consider restructuring your code or using a for loop to remove duplication instead of using a function. These things can only be marginally taught, they must be experienced through practice.

And with all art, there’s a good amount of subjectivity. Your reviewer will likely assume their taste is better than yours. Who can blame them?

"Economic upsides" are directly related to the values assigned. If no value is assigned to death and trauma, it's quite possible that a net positive is recorded by knocking down a bunch of old building and highways and rebuilding them.

However, if we decide to jump-start economic development by knocking down infrastructure and rebuilding it, I'd suggest we make sure buildings and freeways are empty of human beings first.

You experienced something different from these cases: "These dreams are distinguished from regular dreams by being especially vivid. When asked to rate the degree of realism of such dreams, most rate them ten out of ten—the highest degree of realism. Patients often report that they are “more real than real.” They occur both during periods of sleep and periods of wakefulness, and they are easily distinguished from hallucinations or bouts of delirium."

The emotional narrative that was initially gravitated toward is in fact correct.

Had there not been the entrenched environment of lawlessness in SF the perpetrator would not have even attempted his attack. And had the victim not been a prominent person the SF police would not have bothered to keep looking.

The only mistake the murderer made here is he underestimated the public outcry that forced the police and the DA to keep investigating in fear of theirs and the city's reputation.

> More software is fine IMO.

A lot of software is created on powerful developer machines. But fill up a normal consumer machine with this software, and you start to notice that it maybe isn't so fine.

This is how things like Electron come to exist. I'm sure Electron works fine on developer machines, but once it trickles down to someone's cheap Celeron netbook, it runs worse than retro computers with 384KB of RAM.

Does it really have to be this way? Is more software "fine", if the same could be accomplished with much less code bloat?

P.S. As far as I've heard, one of the best ways for developers to combat this is to target your software for cheap netbooks proactively; test compiled artifacts there rather than on your powerful development machine. If you can make it fast in that situation, it'll be fast pretty much anywhere.

I once met someone who had optimized their DOOM clone using this method, and they claim to get millions of FPS on any vaguely modern machine, just through optimizing it for cheap netbooks.
Some people (unfortunately) have to support multiple database brands.
We shouldn't be "extricating them from society". They are the children of us as a species, we should be raising them. If there are existential risk in the process, those risks will be most effectively managed by a combination of us and other AIs, so the best course of action is to ensure they are as close to us and our interests as possible and have a vested interest in helping us solve that problem.
When you're a tourist in the city, you're missing out on the rest of the country. I'll also note the "seeing children" part... anecdotally I recall one time I had the day off and went to a mall for something during a week day. The majority of the people I encountered were young mothers with a child not old enough to go to school.

It's not that I don't see them other places, but it was a lot more concentration there and then... and that was memorable.

If you are a tourist, you're likely to be in the more aesthetically pleasing areas or commercial areas and during the work week.

The counter example would be if you were in a small town an hour beyond the outskirts of the larger cities and went to a local restaurant for dinner - the age demographics would be quite different.
> retail = wholesale

No.

> Is transmission and distribution fully covered by the connection fee?

No. Retail cost pays for long distance transmission and distribution. Thus PGE paying some power plant 100 miles away, running high voltage long distance lines, paying for land, paying for towers, paying for transmission losses, maintenance of the towers, substations along the way, etc.

> If so, then the retail price is the wholesale price.

If I have a 10Kwh surplus and my neighbor uses it. Why should I get paid wholesale and they pay retail? The infrastructure is trivial, just the neighborhoods normal power infrastructure. Why should it subsidize buying land, towers, copper etc to connect to a distant power station, just to send power across a neighbor? The connection to the local power grid is what the connection is for. That way even if a neighborhood uses net zero power over a month, PGE gets the connection fee to run the local grid.

I do however believe that the "free battery" should be time of use based. If it's $0.05 per kwh at noon (peak solar or so) and $0.20 at 9pm then you have to contribute 4 kwh at noon to get a "free" kwh at 9pm.
> What percentage are entrepreneurs and what percentage are people with mental health problems and or drug addiction?

Never really met anyone that described themselves as an 'entrepreneur' that actually was one though. Lots of people that wanted to desperately identify as one and they'd spend all their time telling anyone who'd listen that's what they were.

In contrast, the actual entrepreneurs are too busy actually going out there and building things. I think it's a label that only makes sense when it's applied by someone else.

> Who is going to pay for all that power if none of the consumers are?

The consumers of course, that is assuming the grid uses an hourly rate. When all those roof top solar arrays push power into the grid the price goes down, possibly even below zero - you'd have to pay to push power into the grid and "get paid" [1] to consume power - if the grid is close to capacity. During the night they draw power from the grid and pay the hourly rate which may be - but does not have to be - higher than the rates paid when the sun was up.

What if the grid gets more power in during the day than can be delivered to customers? They can use it to charge their "grid-scale" battery which they use during the peak hours in the evening when everyone comes home, turns on whatever power-hungry devices they have. That battery will save them a lot of money compared to the gas-turbine peak power plant they'd otherwise have to use.

In a hypothetical situation where everyone has enough solar capacity installed to cover their own needs it will be more efficient to have those batteries installed as close as possible to where the power is needed, i.e. in individual homes or possibly at local transformer stations. I don't think they're there yet nor will they ever be able to get there in urban environments with largely multi-storied buildings.
> they could have.. I dunno... maybe start charging for it instead of effectively murdering the product?

Google Analytics has a paid tier but I remember someone on reddit joked like the price is probably too high because they don't even show it publicly...

Look at this majestic beast GPT-4 just drew! https://imgur.com/a/ogZ6qI0

Interestingly, I think you often get better results with ChatGPT web interface than the API (the OP used a system message), but for a funny reason.

Because ChatGPT typically first responds by insisting it can't actually draw, it ends up accidentally chain-of-thought prompting itself into drawing better. "I can't draw, but I can describe a detailed drawing for you in words." So instead of winging it with the SVG code and getting confused, it goes into it with a plan.

This is how it described the unicorn I linked:

__User__
Draw a unicorn!

__ChatGPT__
As an AI language model, I am unable to create visual images directly. However, I can describe a detailed image of a unicorn for you in words.

Picture a magnificent unicorn, standing tall and proud in a serene setting. The unicorn's coat is a shimmering, pure white, and it glistens under the warm sunlight. Its body is strong yet elegant, with a graceful arched neck and powerful, slender legs. The hooves are cloven and emit a faint, otherworldly glow.

The most striking feature of the unicorn is its majestic spiral horn, which emerges from the center of its forehead. The horn is long, slender, and gently tapers to a sharp point. It is iridescent, with colors swirling together like a mesmerizing opal. The unicorn's mane and tail flow behind it like silken strands, shimmering with an ethereal pastel rainbow of colors.

Its eyes are large, expressive, and full of wisdom, with a depth that speaks of untold secrets and ancient magic. The unicorn's ears are pointed and alert, picking up the slightest rustle of leaves or the gentlest of whispers. The unicorn's expression is one of serenity, exuding an air of peace and tranquility that surrounds it like a gentle embrace.

Though it is a creature of great power, the unicorn carries itself with a sense of humility and grace that inspires awe and respect in all who behold it.

It does, and values have types but variables don't. Without the DECLAIM facility you can do the following:

(defvar *foo* nil)
(setf *foo* 123)
(setf *foo* "dank memes")

Whereas in C# you cannot do the following:

int i = 123;
i = "dank memes";

Thats all I meant.
