I think you may underestimate how much ads is dependent on search. Google ads is an attractive place to buy ads (as opposed to the n + 1 other web ad exchanges) because of the ability to place ads on Google search through that platform. If search and YouTube weren't dominant in their market, there would be no reason to choose to use Google ads as opposed to a cheaper ad exchange.
It's no different than any other form of tax-funded government assistance. The question is if you think "most recent college graduates without wealthy parents" are a population worthy of government assistance.
It's called stickerless, commingled inventory[1], and it's where they commingle inventory from multiple sources based on the manufacturer barcode instead of a unique seller-item-specific barcode label, and will use any product with the same barcode in their distribution network to fulfill the purchase regardless of which source/seller provided that individual piece of inventory originally.

From reading [1] it looks like they've tightened up the requirements for it, and put some mitigations in place around counterfeits.

But it's also an opt-in process, so would be nice if they made it visible when you are or aren't purchasing from a seller utilizing it so you can decide yourself on a given purchase whether to go with the cheapest option or potentially opt for a more expensive listing but knowing that a product isn't commingled and was provided by the seller you're purchasing from.

Given the tough job market, if your family situation allows and if you haven't been let go from your job already, then what I'd do in your situation is to look into some temporary accommodations within commute distance to the office so that way you can keep working. It sucks, especially if you're forced to return to a Bay Area office with the extremely high rents in the area, but because you only have two months of runway, it is better to deal with the costs of being closer to the office while still having a job than to risk running out of runway and still be on the job hunt, and it's not likely that a McDonald's job will cover your living expenses.
It's not.

Corporate welfare and regulatory capture is just corruption in my mind. It's a symptom of individuals having too much power.

When I think if late stage capitalism I imagine a world where all our millions of individual businesses and are merged into just a few super conglomerates. Winners snowballing power, hovering up smaller players, all perfectly legal. That's the result of not taxing enough and blocking mergers.

I don't identify with libertarianism because, although I acknowledge that some people work harder than others, there is a multitude of factors outside our own control that effect our ability to succeed.
In a traditional database such as Postgres, queries are routed through a database server that handles both queries and updates, and is quite close to the storage. Reading excess data while executing a query is less of an issue as only the relevant data is eventually streamed to the client.

Datomic is quite different, in that peers (the other services that query Datomic data) execute the query engine library, and directly read the raw data from the store (or from a cache, as Datomic data is immutable). This design makes it easy to scale reads, but introduces the locality issues that the partitioning enhancement addresses.
I would summarize this launch as "It's better to be lucky than to be careful." The launchpad risk was not one they should have taken. Had one of those chunks of debris hit slightly differently, the rocket would not have cleared the tower. Amazing that the rocket got so far!

I believe the words you are looking for would be, it becomes more a science when you attempt to reduce to first principles (which happens iteratively but not necessarily the other way around).

Engineering takes a first-principled approach, where upon knowing those principles you can then construct abstractly without physically building first.
Interesting, that's one distribution I have not tried. However, searching for a degaussing package comes up empty:

Until gentoo has this, I'm not sure if it's ready for the desktop. Maybe next year?
No. Snap started as a project and got useful before flatpak.

Wayland technically was before Mir, but existed as blueprints and ideas back then. Shuttleworth tried to influence its design for his vision of linux desktop, but got rejected, so Mir was created. Mir became useful way before first implementations of Wayland, but Shuttleworth idea to expand Mir and Ubuntu to phones resulted in feature creep, lack of funding and eventually to project failure.

Gnome shell was also released after Unity. Both were influenced by MacOS LaF. The problem with Unity was that it was based on gnome 2 and compiz, that was a good compositor back in the days, but a dead end as a technology, as compositor should’ve been implemented on a lower level and be an integral part of DE. Shuttleworth started Mir and new Unity based on that, but both sank and Ubuntu had to revert to gnome-shell that became useful and more performant than earlier versions.

If your model includes a tiny Bob Barker commentating on the transmission of neural signals, I’m on board.
If I understand it correctly, it is reconstructed from multiple diffusion-generated views via something equivalent to photogrammetry, and then further refined, so I doubt the topology is much different from something you'd get from Reality Capture out of the box.

It likely doesn't generate good edge flow for symmetrical meshes, with hand-picked loops and poles. It's possible we get something like that eventually, but I suspect it's at least a couple of years away.
That ñack of personal accountability would be no problem, though, if the corporate sanctions for lawbreaking had sufficient teeth. Corporations will always treat fines etc. as a cost of doing business; the cost should be high enough to deter lawbreaking.
The U.S. market isn’t a monolith: if you sold these to the 80% of people living in urban areas, that’s a large market - some people are going to insist on driving Canyoneros but there are a lot of smarter people who appreciate easier parking along with much lower costs.

What I’d worry more about are safety standards: some of the U.S. requirements add a lot of weight and cost because there aren’t easy ways to address impacts at highway speeds with 2-3 ton vehicles.

This is the problem right here AI as a definition is now fairly meaningless. Are they self aware ... no and they're not designed to be. Can they do intelligent things?... well yes when they're trained to with huge amounts of probably flawed data.

I use these models everyday to look up answers to coding problems which prior to this required minutes of wading through ad riddled noise.

That's the default option. Commingling is an opt-in process to use the manufacture barcode instead of a unique label on each box, and makes it easier for Amazon to potentially fulfill orders by being able to pick inventory from a wider range of warehouses and make shipping more efficient.
Nature.com has a dark pattern on the accept cookie workflow. I expected better from them

It really should be just an intermediate phase. Proper, solid control system must be created. First you have Stable Diffusion, then you create ControlNet - and this as just a beginning.

This is also one of the reasons why the problem of transparency ("but why and how does it work?") is so important in Machine Learning: allowing control.
I don't know how insistent this method is, but you cab create a pointer to a Position, then check if that pointer is nil.

Many of the makers of Chromebooks have ruggedized models, and they aren’t just for schools.
It really seems like a trade off. Animals seem “happy” and “free” out in nature, but are they?

They have to be on guard every single second because something might eat them. If they get injured, that is an absolute death sentence. There is no safety net. They have to weather harsh weather conditions. They are at risk for being eaten alive and enduring a slow agonizing painful death by other animals that do not care one iota about their well-being

At least in captivity they are safe. I don’t see how we as humans are all that different in how most of us choose to live our lives
I loved my Spark EV with its measly 135km range, which was perfect for SF city driving and going around the Bay Area. BYD Seagull has 305km range (30kWh instead of 16kWh) and the dimensions are with cm of the Spark EV. I'd insta-buy this with cash if it was available in North America even if pricing was a bit higher due to safety certifications and importing.

Bolt EV is nice, but starts at 25K USD and is significantly longer and taller than Spark EV; this makes a difference since I've parked in so many SF street spaces where I literally fit with cm. (And I need four seats for two adults, baby, and dog so Smart car is out).
So we're not quite as doomed as previously thought?
Whether hashing is happening client side does tell you a little, though in most cases most users are still trusting the client side software to not exfiltrate the password before hashing it.

Even with Client side hashing, the software can still validate password requirements on the client side, you may be able to bypass those requirements by modifying the client side software.

So still no, having password requirements tells you nothing about whether the password is being stored in the clear or not. The statement that I disagreed with is still completely false.
It's worth noting that, in addition to Snaps starting up slower (a common complaint on this thread), they actually cause the OS to boot up slower. Every Snap application adds a small amount of startup time. I think I shaved a third off my total time by removing a bunch of Snaps, which is atrocious, unacceptable, and unjustifiable.
When will the government start paying off my mortgage? The terms of my loan say I need to pay back the loan in full. I signed that contract, but I was young and didn't know any better. Everyone said, take out a loan to buy a house. It's worth it! My parents aren't wealthy so I took out a loan. But, the house isn't what I was promised. I don't think it's worth what I had to pay. I want to keep the house, but I don't want to pay back the loan. When will that debt be forgiven?

Normally when you look into your own eyes in a mirror they are each looking into themselves.

If you cross your eyes and get the distance just right, you can look into each eye from the other.

For me it causes a strange effect, or seems to. I would be interested to hear reports from others of their subjective experience of doing that?

Edit to add: Reading aloud also has different effects than reading silently. I surmise that the extra feedback loop from voice to ear has something to do with it.

A common proofreading trick is to read your writing aloud. You catch errors that are [negative hallucination?] elided by, uh, non-external loops.

Partly. Not because SQL isn't working technologically, but because the hardest part is figuring out what to ask and how and gpt can figure out the how while having a discussion with you about the what and giving you examples dynamically. If I just need natural language to try things dynamically across tables and I can have a discussion faster than I can google specific stackoverflow issues, I'll pick the bot. It might be confidently wrong but my colleagues do that too, often enough. The difference is that it takes 3 minutes instead of two hours, and no Teams call where you have to appease egos.
If you're just really good at SQL and you craft amazing requests or figure out schemas from business needs, you probably have a bit more time to enjoy being the go-to SQL person. Probably less and less as the simpler needs will be increasingly covered, leaving a niche of expert until major advances would happen to AI (unpredictable).
Yes, you should. Did you choose an advantageous degree?

People don't have to use something every day to be users.

I mostly just buy crypto once a month and every once in awhile make a purchase with it when it makes sense (usually either towards a new computer or some place I don't want getting my credit card info).

If crypto became the default (which I'd be fine with), I'd use it all the time. But there's enough fees converting from USD to crypto and then making a purchase on top of that, as well as hassle with taxes each year (since I do report crypto transactions on my taxes) that trying to use it for all transactions, currently, isn't worth it for me.

So on most days I wouldn't even show up in that 80,000 DAU (well, especially since I don't touch USDT at all, keep in mind there's quite a few coins out there, not everyone interacts with all, or even more than a few of them).

And yet I keep up with crypto news, read crypto forums, watch videos about crypto, on an almost daily basis. Personally, I'd consider myself a user of crypto, and find it to be a useful tool. But just like my drill or my hammer, I don't use it every single day, just when the situation calls for it.
The first jet engines were used on actual aircraft during WW2, for obvious reasons speed trumped safety across the board. Heck, back then people thought installing liquid fuel rocket engines in wooden glider aircaft was such a good idea, they actually built and used them in combat. I'm too lazy to read up on the actual development history of the first jet powered fighter jets so.

And yes, depending on aircraft, a lot of components are tested until failure before they are installed in actually flying aircraft.

Sorry my comment wasn't very clear about this. There's still secret sauce in the materials. The GDS is purely dimensional. It's just a bunch of shapes. But how those shapes get translated into actual silicon, and how various chemicals are used and in what concentrations to manipulate the silicon to make the transistors function is the secret sauce.
Sandboxing is a necessary evil - the Linux security model for applications installed on your computer is atrocious. The two main options we have to fix it are either a fine-grained capabilities model, or a coarse-grained sandboxing model - and the latter is an order of magnitude less work to implement.

However, Snaps do an impressively poor job of implementing a sandbox.

I'm not sure what your use case is that only rust and gonare options, but is unusual.

NIM supports concurrency and is as portable as the c and js it can generate to.

C#/F# work on x86 and arm which covers most targets today. And supports concurrency. And is situationally more performant than go.

I can't speak to the other languages mentioned, but they all seem quite similar to go as well, except for haskell.

Rust is more like c, c++, zig, ada etc.

US murder rates since 1990 have consistently been around double those of India:

https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/IND/india/murder-homic...

https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/USA/united-states/murd...

The US still has proportionally more executions though. I don’t know what the homicide clearance rate is in India, but that is another factor to possibly consider.

Another thing (that might also be true of India) is that the US is a federation of fifty states, each of which have their own laws. Many states have no death penalty, and some of the states that still do probably have rates comparable to India. Any national rate for the US is mostly an aggregate, plus the relatively small federal death row.

> when you turn on your car and it connects to iPhone via BT, it just starts playing what was last played in Apple Music, even if you were most recently listening to an Audible book and had paused it before.

This must be vehicle- or Audible-specific, because my complaint is exactly the opposite: My phone continues playing the last thing played, which is often not what I want.

For example: When connecting to my car in the morning, the iPhone continues playing my sleep noise instead of one of my preferred choices for that Bluetooth context — music or podcasts. It sort of astounds me that annoyances like this can persist for years.

EDIT: Whoa! I did some digging based on this conversation and, at some point, Apple added the ability to trigger an Automation in response to connecting to a specific Bluetooth device. Maybe this will help you too, @npunt?
