So the artist intentionally exploited a lack of clarity around AI in the rules to gain publicity. This seems clever in that I might not have heard about this artist or this contest otherwise, but it was a cheeky move to win a photography contest by playing a meta game.

An amusingly similar and related strategy I've heard is to just switch your word processor to Comic Sans. The unprofessional look of it can have the same sort of effect to short circuit the tendency to second guess as you're writing. It's much cheaper to get started with as well.
The current consensus is that any water deposited by a meteorite will be vaporized and lost unless it happens to end up in a "cold trap" permanently shadowed area. What you described is close to what happens when a meteorite with water hits the surface -water is dispersed and whatever water molecules randomly end up in a cold trap stay there.

Evidence of water in sunlit areas as in the article is new and it's thought that it is trapped in glass, so I think it's a separate mechanism and water escaping from inside of glass, being evaporated and then also ending up in a cold trap must be very unlikely.
Please don't talk about hypothetical conspiracies as though they are fact on here. The rest of the Internet has enough of that.

We don't have any evidence around your claims other than speculation and that's not the point of this forum (in fact, the Discord where these docs were leaked seems like the exact kind of place for that comment).

I view it as open-source is a currency to buy you certain advantages (distribution, feedback, customizability, trust, etc.) But you need to be clear on what part of the value creation you're capturing in sales transactions (support, premium features, managing infrastructure).

Without this lack of clarity, many companies get bogged down by inefficiencies of open-source and are unable to figure out how to monetize the value they're providing.
They took away the ability on Android to put playlists and album links directly on the home screen, which I used extensively. No discernable reason, and they have refused to reimplement. The "idea" on Spotify has a lot of Voi ed support but it's like being put in the kids corner. It's insulting.

I used to be loyal to Spotify because it was decent and they were in the music business specifically. Now I'm on YouTube Music and going to cancel Spotify paid.

The newton method has the nasty Wada property arise, which is often glossed over as being the same as scale invariant noise in class but which is better thought of as a topological feature rather than scale invariant noise.

It is indecomposable continua and not the imperfect knowledge of initial conditions like chaotic systems often invoke.

Boundary conditions becoming indeterminate is a problem with 3 or more attractors or exit basins.

> the constant insistence that there is some short-term degeneration

Define "short term". I have first met San Francisco in 2006. I have never actually lived there (first because I couldn't afford it, then because I didn't want to) but I visited it fairly regularly, at some periods of my life almost daily. At the beginning, is was a very nice place to visit. And then at some point I realized I don't actually want to go there anymore. At which precise point over the 17 years of this history that happened is hard for me to describe, but I can clearly see the contrast between where we started and where we ended up. It may be that living there all the time feels differently - I only have my perspective to it.

> seeing the poor on a daily basis makes them unsafe.

This is really an unfair take, designed to shame the complainer rather than address the complaint. You are fully aware that the problems with SF go way beyond "seeing the poor" and that people that complain do not complain about "seeing the poor". Yes, people that cause these complaints are often poor - nobody would complain much about seeing a billionaire strolling through Market street - but pretending like them being "poor" is the sole basis of all the complaints is clearly not taking any of it seriously and just trying to blame the messenger. I guess it worked so well the last 15 years, keep doing it.

> is key to seeing them improve.

How has it been improving lately?

> strategy which has continually failed for decades actually

Yeah, true socialism has never been tried yet. Except SF didn't do anything like that for "decades" - the visible homelessness has been steadily increasing, and the enforcement of property crime has been steadily decreasing, to the point that it has been effectively legalized now.

> If you want to live in a gated community, I suggest you move to one.

Well, that's pretty much what I did. Except where I live there's no need for gates - it's safe enough without them. And also clean enough. I hope one day it will be the same way in SF, at least as it was where I first met it 17 years ago, or better - but it's a hope beyond hope, because right now I witness people of SF doubling down hard on "how dare you to complain, you snobby rich fuck? Just smell the poop and shut up!" and "we need to legalize even more crime and do even less enforcement and then it surely will all work". Well, I guess we'll see how it will work out for you.
A large enough tsunami could travel up the Columbia a significant distance. Even a town like Rainier could be at risk though Portland should be fine.

I think the "everything west of I-5 will be toast" refers more to Seattle, where all of downtown is built on fill pulled from the Sound 100+ years ago. For everyone else, the biggest risk is being completely cut off when all of the bridges fail.
In containerized environments it may happen more often due to OOM kills or if you leverage autoscalers and have long running sidekiq jobs that have a runtime that exceeds your configured grace period for shutting down a container during a downscale and the process is eventually terminated without prejudice.

OOM kills are particularly pernicious as they can get into a vicious cycle of retry-killed-retry loops. The individual job causing the OOM isn't that important (we will identify it, log it and noop it), it's the blast radius effect on other sidekiq threads (we use up to 20 threads on some of our workers), so you want to be able to recover and re-run any jobs that are innocent victims of a misbehaving job.
Where do you live to have this rate schedule?

In my neck of the woods (SoCal) the lowest rates for TOU (Time Of Use) are during the night (Super Off Peak, generally 12am to 6am). Most of the TOU plans are like this (see https://www.sdge.com/residential/pricing-plans/about-our-pri... )
No offense intended. I was merely pointing out that it’s not much for many places and many would not be able to leave a full-time job for that. Keep in mind that this is approximately the poverty line for the United States so it might be hard for most people to leave a full-time gig for that.

It’s a nice start though!
Nice, thanks!

Wonder why they seemed to have never prodded me about this? Rather that than (as already mentioned) prodding me about new releases from literally-who artists (to me). ;)
If your point is that we already have more than enough music than needed, isn’t that an indication that current copyright laws don’t need to be nearly as strong as they are in order to continue to promote the “useful arts”? (at least when it comes to music)

> This is the problem I have with the GPT models

You absolutely should think about different kinds of models, especially for tasks that don't truly require generative output.

If all you are doing is classification, I'd grab some ML toolkit that has a time-limited model search and just take whatever it selects for you.

Binary classifiers are the epitome of inspectable. You can follow things all the way through the pipeline and figure out exactly where we went off the rails.

You can have your cake & eat it too. Perhaps you have a classification front-end that uses more deterministic techniques that then feeds into a generative back-end.
Yep thanks!
last time I researched into it last year, Google Pixel was already the biggest division in hardware for Google in terms of profit (above Nest and Home) and had better-looking numbers in profitability than all the main players in hardware except Microsoft - and that included Apple for the first time

since Google killed Stadia and perhaps has no chance at the console business, it strategically looks like a terrible idea to exit the mobile hardware division, but again, with Google you never know

the image Google has created around having essentially no commitment to any business lines makes it hard for them to enter the console market with longer cycles, but doesn't hurt them as much in the mobile market as phones are replaced often anyway

PS: Pixel is just Google's newer mobile hardware brand, for me there is no real difference with Nexus in that respect - just a rebranding
That's OK. I don't publish everything I make either. Just stuff I actually want people to see and have access to.
That tweet is from a journalist, not a member of the investigative team which arrested him.

Just as an example, the NYT/Bellingcat couldn't get a court order to get discord to reveal the credit card details a given account used to pay for nitro (in my example of a possible way he could have been caught) and then a order to get the card issuer to reveal the billing address of the card. But the FBI for sure could.

I'd prefer A for sure. However, if my hold time were an hour rather than 10 minutes, I'd probably prefer B in order to get out of my immediate jam, and then I'd find another ISP.

But if I'm going with something like B, I'd much prefer it not be done with voice. Doing it on a website would be much preferable.
It's not an opinion, though. Reading some papers isn't a replacement for a proper medical education. There are some logical reasons to avoid a vaccination (being immunocompromised, being allergic to an ingredient, etc.) but that doesn't cover the sizable portion of anti-vaxxers who oppose them on ideological grounds.

AI is going to make spreading disinformation trivial, and do so in a way that is much more convincing than an image with JPEG artifacts shared by your Uncle Jerry on Facebook in a public group called "HOLISTIC BLEACH ENEMAS". It's a natural evolution of radio except you don't need a charismatic human guiding the entire process.

Half of U.S. adults cannot read a book written at the 8th grade level or higher [0]. These adults are empowered to make medical decisions for themselves and their family. Is the "freedom" for a model to argue in favor of controversial, unproven, even dangerous positions more important than, say, a child with autism's safety [1]? I think that can of worms is just being opened, and the human cost is going to be atrocious.

> This much is clear from Tesla Inc.’s fifth price cut this year: Elon Musk is dead set on seizing much more of America’s SUV market.

> Tesla’s Model Y already became one of the three best-selling sport utility vehicles in the US last year. That was remarkable considering the starting price of the Model Y was more than double the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V, the market’s perennial favorites. Now, that cost barrier has been reduced to a speed bump. Since January, Tesla has lowered the Model Y starting price by 24%, the biggest drop of any of its vehicles.

> A 24% price decline in three months is practically unheard of for such a high-volume vehicle. The closest analog may be the Model T, which Ford made dramatically cheaper in the 1920s by way of the moving assembly line.

> Tesla’s constantly fluctuating prices are unique in the auto industry, although as Bloomberg established early this year, they tend to track closely with the broader US market. The base Model 3, for example, rarely drifted far from the US average the last couple years, while the Model S typically went for about twice as much.

> Analysts disagree on whether Tesla’s price cuts are indicative of weakening demand or part of a long-term strategy to expand its addressable market while cutting costs. Regardless, the markdowns are putting pressure on other carmakers that already were having issues making money from manufacturing electric vehicles.
I would recommend this talk by the creator of Zig: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gv2I7qTux7g&t=3021s

He gives some examples of C vs Zig and what they tried to improve.

I found this article resplendent because Linux has given back to me what I put into it year after year since it launched the year I graduated college.

What I wonder is this: is there a story happening now that has similar good will for the future of AI without having commercial or social computing as its basis?

The reason I love Linux is that Linus started and finished before commercial and social concerns became the raison d'etre in software.
Synthetic fuels and hydrogen. You're just being closed minded.
A lot of programmers dislike R for the same reason they dislike PHP: weak typing.

If you can get over that, though, there's a lot to like about R. It's sort of like a hybrid between a Lisp and an array language.
I built a few mobile games for iOS and Android.

I launched my first game in 2015 which took 6 months to even reach $100/month. From there it earned around $500/month for the last 7 years. It required a huge upfront investment, ongoing updates to keep relevant and a significant fraction of revenue going into advertising.

I launched a few additional games that were low quality and ended up removing them. I started another 4-5 ideas that were abandoned.

In 2021, during a few month break from my job, I produced one more game that has averaged around $2000/month revenue for the last 2 years. Also needs regular updates and promotion to stay relevant.

Overall I would only recommend this route if you’re really passionate about game dev. The overall time investment has been really high, and it isn’t truly passive income because mobile games lose users quickly when not updated often.

I've had a related idea. I'd like it if political debates allowed the candidates to talk to each other directly more, and I want a timer above each candidate that shows how long they have been talking and an interruption counter. This way, if one politician frequently interrupts or talks more than their fair share it will become obvious to both them and the viewers.

Of course, this will probably never happen for several reasons. And political debates don't often change people's minds, but they are good theater -- actually, something like this would add the the theatrical nature, so maybe there's some slim chance it could happen.
RDS for Postgres 14+ does come with pg_tle, but it does not come with pgsql-http, so you cannot use the dbdev installer. But, you can still install TLEs, you just have to do so "by hand" by calling `pgtle.install_extension()` yourself, probably from a migration script depending on your tooling.

See the RDS docs here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/Postg...
My recommendation is always accessible by default. If the default theme is not accessible, it may be difficult for the user to switch to one that is.

It's so easy to make a site that is accessible - a blank HTML document with no CSS essentially is. It takes work to make a site that isn't.
This is super interesting and surprising. Can you please elaborate on what those reasons are?
If they ruined it, then a new clone could probably do well. Probably a fun weekend project for someone to reimplement it.

> I am not a lawyer

Don't be so confident, then. I'm not either, but it doesn't take much looking around to see that the situation isn't as simple as corporate presence. A company can be subject to the state's jurisdiction for claims related to the contacts a company does have – and relatedness is not just a matter of directly causing harm or some other outcome. [0]

What you pointed out actually demonstrates that point: even though manufacturers aren't selling directly to consumers, they're still selling there via distributors, and are still subject to product liability suits, etc. The distributor doesn't shield them, in other words.

Here's what the Court said in Ford:

> Specific jurisdiction is different: It covers defendants less intimately connected with a State, but only as to a narrower class of claims. The contacts needed for this kind of jurisdiction often go by the name “purposeful availment.” Burger King Corp. v. Rudzewicz, 471 U.S. 462, 475 (1985). The defendant, we have said, must take “some act by which [it] purposefully avails itself of the privilege of conducting activities within the forum State.” Hanson v. Denckla, 357 U.S. 235, 253 (1958). The contacts must be the defendant’s own choice and not “random, isolated, or fortuitous.” Keeton v. Hustler Magazine, Inc., 465 U.S. 770, 774 (1984). They must show that the defendant deliberately “reached out beyond” its home—by, for example, “exploi[ting] a market” in the forum State or entering a contractual relationship centered there. Walden v. Fiore, 571 U.S. 277, 285 (2014) (internal quotation marks and alterations omitted).

Whether only advertising could be enough hasn't been definitively settled, but it certainly could count as "purposeful availment" whereby the company "reache[s] out beyond its home" and seeks to "exploi[t] a market" in the state.

What's stopping me from adding an extension to this repository that adds something valuable while simultaneously exfiltrating entire databases back to me?

It's a cool idea, but I won't be the first to try it. You're placing an awful lot of trust in these modules.
No ideally not. If they are they must be ignored.

If other columns in the row index are unique regardless of the value of the nullable column, then the row is logically unique. So if in that case the NULL value is ignored, then OK. But two NULLs neither match each other nor are they distinct from each other. You just cannot say either way.

> The largest lake on an island in a lake on an island in a lake on an island is said to be "Lake Matano" located on the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia.

> Lake Matano is the largest lake in Sulawesi and the ninth deepest lake in the world, with a maximum depth of 590 meters (1,940 feet). The lake is located on the island of Sulawesi, which is itself part of the country of Indonesia. Within the lake, there is an island called "Pulo Mahamba" which has a lake within it called "Lake Towuti". And within Lake Towuti, there is another island called "Una Una" which has a crater lake within it. This crater lake is considered to be the largest lake on an island in a lake on an island in a lake on an island.

Also tried the largest island in a lake on an island in a lake on an island in a lake on an island?

> The largest island in a lake on an island in a lake on an island in a lake on an island is not officially documented, and it is unclear if such an island actually exists.

> The concept of nested lakes and islands can create a potentially endless chain, but eventually, the size and feasibility of such geographic features become implausible. As such, it is not practical to identify the largest island in a lake on an island in a lake on an island in a lake on an island, as it may not exist.

> However, the previously mentioned example of Lake Matano in Sulawesi, Indonesia, is an actual location that fits the criteria of nested lakes and islands. Within the lake, there is an island called "Pulo Mahamba" which has a lake within it called "Lake Towuti". And within Lake Towuti, there is another island called "Una Una" which has a crater lake within it, but there is no known island within that lake.
I agree, but contests within the context of art are absurd. They're as surreal as the music charts where because boy band x sells y units, that somehow makes them "better" than z obscure artist making microtonal music that's never been heard before. The charts are a measure of commercial success.

A contest is a measure of what? The taste of the judges?
