Wasn't the biggest thing with the kinect everyone was upset about was that if you say, rented a movie, there would be an implicit agreement that x number of people can watch at that price. If x+n people were watching, you would get up charged. Then also question of, what if only x people are watching but 1 person walks in a room, then walks out, would they have counted that as x+1?

Computers are overstimulating and you feel empty after because the people you tried to connect with and build things with are gone and were never really there.

The landscape has changed since I came in 2018 (after some parliamentary rumblings, the big telcos rolled out "unlimited plans"), but for context, a 5gb plan was considered a large data plan, and generally was in the $80+ range when I arrived, starter plans were generally 2gb in the $60 region. Extra data wasn't throttled, it was charged for at a high rate.

The plan I was referring to is an older tmobile plan with 3 lines on it. They come out to just under $50 cad per line including taxes/fees and that includes 5gb of Canadian/Mexican LTE/5g, unlimited 3g after that, as well as unlimited everything in the US, and no extra charge to call anywhere in NA.

I can roam on Bell, Telus or Rogers, so tend to get better coverage than my Canadian friends. I also get unlimited worldwide texting and 2g data when I travel for no additional charge.

If I switched to one of the new t-mobile plans, I would be paying $59/line, but that includes a free Netflix subscription, and 10gb of Canadian data.

I just priced out a roughly comparable rogers plan for the features I actually use (5gb, unlimited US calls, data in the US) and it comes to $65 CAD + $12 per day I'm in the US, or go for the unlimited US plan which is $105 CAD on a promotional offer right now. Add on another 12% for tax and a bunch of fees I'm sure I'd learn about after the fact, and keeping my US service is very competitive. Rogers new plans, are pretty new (I believe unlimited data only started in 2019 or 2020, and their definition of unlimited is 20gb).

The takeaway for me is that if I was just a single line, and I didn't leave Canada much, I would probably pay slightly less. Since I call and text the US daily, and travel there for at least a month a year, I save several hundred dollars a year on tmobile, and don't have to worry about getting billed hundreds or thousands because I forgot to buy a data pass for a trip across the border.
Don't bite (or embarrass) the hand that feeds you. Their money, and their ability to get more money is (far) more important that any status or effect you can have.
It’s not even the speed, it’s writing queries. The syntax is clunkier, and since you don’t have a nice clean schema, you end up doing a lot of jumping through hoops to check for the presence of keys/proper data types, etc. Or doing your basic data validation in your app instead of letting the database do its job.
They are behind because what they have released sucks. Have you tried Bard? It's dumb. Like you're talking to some 20th century gimmick dumb. GPT4 is far from perfect, but when it makes mistakes and you point them out, it understands and tries to adapt. Bard just repeats itself saying the same stupid things like a casette-tape answering machine.

If you ask a googler about this, they typically assume GPT is just as stupid as bard. Or say something like "so GPT is just trained on more data - we can do that." As if nothing's wrong.

> As long as they don't stop offering Starlink direct to home owners and RV users as a result of this. Unfortunately, given how aggressive and monopolistic Rogers is I could see this being an outcome. I'm sure Rogers has at least pushed for it.

SpaceX/Starlink has a nationwide license/permission from the Canadian federal government for direct to consumer LEO satellite services so it's very unlikely they would remove this as a service option.

Starlink has been revolutionary for people in some very remote part of Canada whose previous ONLY option was consumer grade geostationary Ku/Ka-band VSAT terminals at oversubscriptions ratios of 32:1 or worse. Xplornet, etc. Same tech as viasat/wildblue/hughesnet consumer stuff in USA.
It's really sad how other provinces sold off their crown corps to their detriment and even Sask, long a leader in this area, has turned away from these sort of policies in recent years.

Modularity really doesn't work with ships. For the LCS, the idea was to have mission modules that can be swapped out depending on the ship's role. However, the entire idea is flawed. First, you need crew trained on these different modules, so not only would you be swapping out modules, but swapping out a large portion of the crew. Second, swapping modules sounds easy, but is a tough thing to do on a ship without affecting other design constraints.

The LCS also suffered from the concept of minimal manning (which meant reliance upon contractors for a lot of support), and also lacked a decent set of weaponry.
Sure, but the point is that if we assume that the telco is malicious none of LTE's security matter or could ever matter. They are the party you are encrypting the data for, so they always by definition can log/sniff/whatever it.

There's no point in designing telco standards for cases where the telco is a malicious party.
But it could, perhaps, compute something like the degrees of freedom the prompt allowed. If, in choosing how to complete the prompt, it had to choose between a huge number of different responses, perhaps that's an indication that the prompt is not precise enough? (Of course, even the most precise prompt is still going to allow for a huge number of variations in response, so you'd have to scale the actual numbers down quite a bit for them to be useful.)
Their market power is what determines it, if Microsoft wants access to that market they have to play by that markets rules. They'll have to decide if owning Activision is worth more than having access to the UK marketplace & talent pool.

The movie is really just plainly inaccurate - its origins include some relation to reality, but it should not be viewed as any kind of retelling of a real story. The top comment in that post puts it well:

>It was never meant to be an accurate portrayal of the Bradley program and it shows. You're getting Hollywood taking an an axe-grinding, half-true memoir as fact and then playing it for laughs.

The Bradley is an interesting vehicle, and its real origin story is worth reading, just lacking in comedic value.

Oauth is simple. OAuth2 is a protocol for making protocols and every mega-corp's implementation is different. It's requirement for email access in the mega-corp walled gardens breaks imap in the sense that just imap doesn't work anymore. And in the pragmatic sense that many smaller email clients don't and won't support all the various idiosyncratic implementations.

It's not hyperbolic nonsense. Further, your assertion is incredibly inflammatory, without any credible cause.

You "checked your reels" and had experience A, when other people have reportedly checked their reels and post streams, and found a different experience. This is called personalization + A/B experimentation. I myself experienced more than 50% ads in my content stream last I logged-in in January/February (I don't really use Instagram). That was enough for me to not open up the app again.

I didn't pretend anything. You and your needlessly inflammatory position can take a deep breath. More oxygen and prefrontal cortex, less amygdala.
But the LLM won't interpret it formally; it doesn't know the semantics of any of the programming languages it can generate code for, it just "knows" that certain patterns occur more or less frequently. You can prompt it with invalid code and it will still sometimes give you a meaningful response.

I was thinking of it differently, more in terms of how debt-laden Americans tend to be. This is just another mechanism of perpetuating that.

It would be one thing if people are leveraging that equity to buy appreciating assets, but too often they are leveraging that debt for depreciating assets.

> I get real tired of hearing all the hate for rich people and the fact that they even exist.

I don't really hear a lot of hate for rich people for existing. They do tend to get more scrutiny, because (in the US, at least), wealth is power and the powerful have a greater ability to do harm.

I do hear a lot of hate for rich people who use their wealth to harm non-rich people. That seems fair.
> Generative AI will bring about widespread deflation in the cost of entertainment… which will be great for society.

Really, that's what we need, cheaper entertainment? You can already be entertained effectively infinitely at zero marginal cost with YouTube or a streaming service that costs $10/month. Most of us already probably spend more time on such entertainment than is beneficial for us. I don't see how cheaper entertainment will be of any use to anyone.
We're only just starting to see Arc mature, and their line is looking incredibly impressive given their success with optimizing Cyberpunk.

On the CPU front though, it seems they're continuing to lag. I suspect they may have over-invested into GPU's when mining was booming, and the risk isn't paying off.

They'll be back, but I don't see them being a major competitor for many more years outside of commodity and Enterprise business. Which, as a company, is a great place to be. But I really don't care.
I’m happy when someone explains something with words strung together into sentences, rather than code. Code is an example, an example is not an explanation.

Then your examples can be simple, rather than trying to be a complete explanation of everything.
I don’t think it’s really the opposite opinion.

To pick on the game of Go as an example, the insight from the Bitter Lesson is the best method to use for Go is probably going to be the most broad method that abuses the magic of brute force the most, compared to a method that really encodes the best existing strategies of Go.

I think what OP is referring to and what I’ve observed is that in some fields you have to have a certain amount of expertise to just understand the rules of the game, and there are a lot of applications where someone approaching a problem with the goal of applying ML can’t quite get over the hump of understanding all the rules.
Almost right. Manufacturing a greater number of items does not necessarily use more energy. For example, manufacturing 1,000,000 paperclips probably uses less energy and material than 1 car.

Let's say you have a sturdy product with a 1% defect and replacement rate. You make 1000 of them. You have to replace 10 of them, so you've manufactured 1,010 of them in total. Let's say they each use 100 grams of material. You've used 101,000g of material.

Now you redesign it to save 1 gram of weight, but it doubles the defect rate. Again, you make 1000 of them. You have to replace 20 of them, so you manufacture 1,020 of them. But because of the 1g material reduction per unit, you've used less material overall – 100,980g.

These are just easy numbers to work with, but it's not hard to imagine many products might work like this. And the same calculation can be done for either energy or materials.
Yes, before the massive government programme of rearmament leading up to the war, then there were millions unemployed. Employment contracts and workers rights were nothing like they are today, so if an employee got sick then you could simply fire them and get someone else in on a lower wage.

Data migration (including static/initial data) can in theory be done using BACPAC (and DACPAC and BACPAC share a file structure so you could start with an SSDT DACPAC and expand it, in theory), but the tools that work with BACPAC in general are even flakier and BACPAC was primarily designed for backups rather than data compare, which is why SSDT mostly opted out of managing BACPACs at all and stuck primarily to the DACPAC subset when outputting artifacts (and part of why DACPAC and BACPAC even have different names). (SSDT can read BACPACs pretty well as I recall, and using BACPACs in SSDT for things is still sometimes useful.)

(Plus, yeah, BACPAC doesn't solve all the other problems with DACPAC that most of the tools are still clumsy mostly closed-source things that work with Microsoft's SQL Server alone.)

That’s the scary part - the facts are readily available, but so few take the time to understanthe current state of it. Instead, they argue from their armchair based on this-or-that principle of the day.

Fair enough, although not for most vehicles going forward -- they're encrypting all of the bus traffic and have made other security improvements (in response to the 2015 defcon Jeep hack that demonstrated how weak vehicle bus security is among most automakers).

Oh, I absolutely see that limitation. But as I mentioned in my example, a "household" does not cease to exist when it leaves that shared roof. The group is defined based on where they live, regardless of whether they are together at any given moment, or if they are under a different roof together (and whether that different roof is part of a hotel, condo, or vacation home).
As a fun anecdote, I was sentenced to house arrest during COVID (after serving a short county jail sentence) and all of the fees were actually waived, by order of the governor, due to COVID IIRC.

My experience is that this is seldom granted on request barring extenuating circumstances i.e. COVID, jail capacity, etc, and your convictions needs to be strictly non-violent otherwise. That said, at least in California the jails and prisons are very overcrowded leading to many unqualified individuals being offered house arrest after serving short stints in custody.
And on the other end, we have people who get treated like this:

Frankly, the answer to how that works is less rich and more being highly adept at utilizing various levels of privilege to her advantage in almost calculating fashion.

All it takes to deflate the narrative is a look at the success rate of recent immigrants to the USA and compare that to those who have been there for generations. An honest observer will notice that e.g. Nigerian immigrants do much better on average than "African Americans" (an odd name given that those Nigerian immigrants are far more "African" than those who claimed this name for themselves). This difference in outcome can not be due to the often-claimed "systemic racism" since that would affect a Nigerian fresh out of Lagos just as much. What, then, is the difference? That thing which these studies studiously avoid: culture.

Here's a few excerpts from an article [1] on the subject of Nigerians immigrants to the USA outperforming nearly all other groups - and yes, they outperform native-born Caucasians:

Education is an essential part of our culture ... we were encouraged to excel. Parents expected it of us ...

Sometimes that is why Nigerians in diaspora — especially the first generation — can be reluctant to talk about race and racial barriers, because we are conditioned to not say, ‘It is not going to work for me because . . . ’. They don’t want to talk about racial bias. They want to talk about the opportunities...

By not looking for "racism" but taking their lot in their own hands this group of people ended up as one of the most successful [2] ethnic groups in the USA. Had the narrative around "systemic racism" been true this would not be the case, i.e. the narrative is false. It is not just false but it is pernicious in that it leads to exactly the lack of success which these studies claim to want to solve.
