Looks like there is no reason for them to exist because of the large negative net worth of the low interest rate loans. They could only survive if their other assets are worth a huge amount to offset that.

The design is the same, but are the materials, manufacturing tolerances, and QA the same? That cheaper model is cheaper for a reason. While you're right that most people won't need the $15,000 industrial biscuit cutter, I'd hesitate to use the cheapest model on the shelf.
> There are a lot of export commodities they no longer have a market for

Exports to the EU hit a record high in the summer of 2022, which ironically, was mainly because of commodities. Who'd have thought?

While I appreciate Rust's correctness features and dearly miss `match` statements, as a software security professional with (I think I can say) a lot of experience looking for the kinds of vulnerabilities we're talking about here: I do not buy this theory of Rust's security advantage, like, at all. People have been saying things like this about strongly typed languages of varying sorts (Haskell was once a favorite) for over a decade, and it hasn't panned out. I think you'll find, if you look at the last (say) 10 meaningful sudo vulnerabilities, that there isn't a clear story about how enums would have steered you away from the problem.

Certainly, if there's an appetite for a reduced-fat version of sudo that caters to the 80-90% use case, I'm all for a Go, Rust, or whatever version of that thing. But then, C programmers were making the same argument 15 years ago, and nobody was able to sell the reduced-fat sudo (or, for the matter, the reduced-fat ssh, which we're all still dealing with). If it works out, great.

If it ends up gradually becoming a 1:1 equivalent to sudo, wartfeatures, and all, that's less great.
I don't know why it's still hard, but I can tell you, from the perspective of trying to prototype something, I would love to not have to use it just to find out if this functionality I want to build is worthwhile. I don't want to have to create a client, get some keys, worry about refresh tokens, etc. I want to hit an endpoint with an easily accessible token and get some data.

Make it so that the token is only valid for 30 days or something and then it requires moving to OAuth. But for prototyping stuff with curl and bash scripts, it's a giant pain.
The Art of the Play Test: Designing Tests and Keeping Records
In the aftermath of WW2, it surely was the post-war reconstruction (in what became West Germany at least). Later on, US cultural exports from Disney to Mc Donalds dominated. Hollywood, satellite t.v. and now the WWW have major influences (cue "Amerika" by Fee). Germany isn't a small US, there remain significant differences (for the better or worse), but travelling (later immigrating) from Germany to US, the latter seemed eerily familiar and strange at the same time.

I'd wager that kids in Germany today (or for the last 40 years or so) can relate more to Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn than to Struwwelpeter, not the least because the former was made into a (quite well done) t.v. show dubbed and broadcast in Germany.

This is a hopelessly naive misunderstanding framed as obvious disloyalty, I want to buy calls on your career in middle management.
> Given they claimed, at least, to have personal xp on the matter then why is it meaningless?

Because personal experience is highly unlikely to amount to enough evidence to make a claim that anyone should feel comfortable generalizing to a population of humans. Positive or negative.

> Maybe have a conversation and find out?

My dude, I literally said “let’s have [a discussion]” and posed the exact question you are quoting to invite a conversation.
House votes to pass debt ceiling bill
I have a tough time coming down to hard on free to play Fortnite. You can spend more. They incentivize you to spend more. That's been a staple in fashion for a long time.

But at the same time I think there's something cool about being able to hop in without shelling out $60. And getting updates and new content for years.
I never understood why semaphore was called a primitive until I've read the original paper. Dijkstra called semaphore a primitive because the controlling part was a mere integer. A Boolean would be even more primitive but probably insufficient. But since a semaphore also has a queue of waiting processes it is of course a rather complex system.

The "security hole" was anyone could use search inurl:example.com/documents and get five pages of results with SSNs, credit card numbers, etc. plus the reputational damage of leads doing any amount of research into the company and seeing confidential documents on page 2 or 3 by literally just searching the company name. The startup was big enough that the data&reputational risk was easily 7 figures/yr

This strikes me as trying to mandate a particular market structure while at the same time claiming free market motivations. At what point will big tech structure themselves in such a way as to avoid certain over-regulated regimes.

I liked reading about what specifically he tried to record: who won + every player's strategy, to see if there were any exceptionally strong or weak approaches that need rebalancing.
Dexter Fletcher as director piqued my interest in Ghosted just a wee bit. I read The Rachel Papers as a youngster and quite enjoyed the film when it came out (in which he plays the main character in the book).

I'll probably watch it on holiday to hedge against the possibility of losing two hours of my life on a school night :)
To be fair, I got GPT-4 API access a few days after it launched, without providing any free labor (though I don't know what that's referring to, so maybe I did?).
give some examples, so those of us with personal domains can test it and see why it's failing.

Let AI help you out right where you are, without interfering with your workflow.
It also likely means no one in management understands building software.

It's tiring when every line of code needs a value proposition and a clear use case. Some things don't take much work to improve/maintain but are next to impossible to slap a $ value on.
Seems like the main thing of value at this point. It would be great to get rid of the toxic bureaucracy milking the IP.
I frequently "turn on" IPv6 by disconnecting from my company VPN. Some things work better that way.
A monarchy is more responsive to the needs of its citizens than a representative democracy? I realize we've all become jaded cynics over the western flavor of republic recently, but history and even present day monarchies show this to be nonsense.
I don't see any contradiction to their mission in being closed. If you think that the people you've given access to are the ones who you know will benefit humanity, and you're not sure about the others, it makes sense to ignore the others.

FWIW, I don't think that they're giving access based on that mission, but I don't think your claim has much merit. There is a possibility that unfairness and their mission are perfectly in sync.
Even with an incredibly long context window (say, 1M tokens), attention still suffers from a problem with long-term dependencies. This is probably why OpenAI hasn't publicly released their 32k token length model just yet.
IMO, there needs to be more public shaming by game moderators when someone claims to have been banned for no reason and it turns out they were banned for spamming racial slurs or cheating.
The strong scientific consensus is that saturated fats are worse for you than unsaturated fats.

The idea that saturated fats are better than unsaturated fats is a small minority opinion. It's all the rage with wellness influencer types, but it is currently supported by far less evidence than the consensus.
I doubt it, VC firms and their principals have a reputation, and the community is not so big that they can endlessly pass the buck like this, without suffering consequences.
It's a data platform, sure, but it's not an OS, unless the definition of OS has suddenly shifted beneath me. That kind of thing "literally" happen to me.

Ontology is not some new "groundbreaking concept" invented by Palantir. I mostly hear it from philosophy and ML folks, but that's probably my personal bias.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontology_(computer_science)

Versioning data is not something that only Palantir figured out. I hear about this from different sources, like ML ops, but I've also dealt with it with creatives.

And I stopped there. I don't doubt that it all works together well, but this reads like someone's first experience with a single data platform, assuming that's the first one, true, data platform, and evangelizing.
What kind of job was this exactly?
There are good reasons to believe that this will be the new state of the art by a comfortable margin. Hard to know until we can actually play with it.

Harrison Ford keep saying this is the last one with Indiana Jones. It seems like he must have been careful to avoid signing over the rights to have a virtual Harrison Ford. At the very least he would be against it. I guess he's deep. Fake characters are going to get good enough that we can't tell them part and I'll be cheaper eventually than paying a real actor. And I don't look forward to that.
We already knew those were going to be solved by scale like using T5 instead of the really small bad text encoder SD used, because they were solved by Imagen etc.
You don’t have to read 418 pages to have an opinion.
It does take more work to run dual stack. I wanted to avoid duplicating efforts when I set out to learn ipv6, so I disabled ipv4 routing on my network and just ran ipv6 with DNS64/NAT64 to provide my clients access to legacy services. In this configuration, most of my traffic was end-to-end ipv6. I tested iOS, Android, Windows, and Ubuntu clients with no issues, even my aging printers support it!

The only issue I have is the same issue found in the article, but in reverse: now that I have a securely configured ipv6 network, how can I ensure that my hosts are fully prevented from communicating over a rogue ipv4 net?
Thanks for the explanation. I did not know rolling coal was a thing. But it clearly looks like a boogeyman
I feel the same is also happening with Rabbit Hole, though I might persist with it. The Kiefer and Charles Dance in the same series, what's not to like?
It's the same reason analysts come from math rather than economy degrees.

You can teach a mathematician what he needs to know about finance, you can hardly do the opposite.
It's really trying to solve a problem they created by statlessly handing out tokens instead of keeping session state on the backend - they have no way to revoke a token once issued, so long lived tokens are a liability. Solution? More complexity! Hand out very short lived tokens, along with a slightly longer lived refresh token, which only allows you get a new bearer/access token.
yes, this is the reason to use email on your own domain, it doesn't matter if a company sells the email address, you just spambox all the email to that address after cancelling or whatever.

everyone is hip to the dot separation and + of google et al. it does nothing. good luck getting me to look at genewitch@mydomain emails, since i have used that exactly zero times.
Seems pretty similar. In general Google LLMs seem better suited for just conversation and ChatGPT is built to honor “write me X in the style of Y” prompts.

The latter is more interesting to play around with, granted, and I think it’s an area where Google can catch up, but it doesn’t seem like a huge technical hurdle.
Disney sues Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, claiming 'government retaliation'
The "observer" is a bad historical name. The observer can be a person, a camera, a photographic plaque, a cat or just a brick. There is no magical thing in humans.

We have repeated experiments that are equivalents to the Schrodinger cat with particles and molecules. We even made experiments like in this article that are huge for a typical quantum system but tiny for the human scale. They must be very cold and isolated, so it's difficult to put bigger and more interesting things. Everyone expect that it's possibly to do with cats or humans, but it will be very difficult.

There are variants of the experiment that make some test to the system inside are actually in the superposition state. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wigner%27s_friend [1] We tried it with small systems with one (or a few?) particles, and they work as the theory predict. Everyone expect that it's possibly to do with cats or humans, but it will be very difficult (but at least it's not necessary to kill the friend).

[1] The details of the "Wigner's friend" are too technical.
That's exactly my point.

An outline is a very different beast compared to pseudo code.

It's effectively the difference between operational semantics and denotational semantics.
Can't Agree with that more.

LLMs should not be trained to simply memorize information. Instead, they should be designed to understand and identify patterns in the data, and use the knowledge stored in vector databases to organize and summarize information.

Vector databases can be used to store and organize knowledge in a way that is more accessible to LLMs. By using vector representations, LLMs can easily access and manipulate knowledge, allowing them to more effectively process and analyze large amounts of information.
Yes, so annoying. Some shows just makes you interested, invested in the story, you learn the characters' names... Then the season ends, you look up when the next season comes out... And you see that the show has been canceled... Happened too many times, last one that really frustrated me was GLOW.

I wonder if it has a vicious circle, spiral component to it, like how Google keeps killing their products because people don't adapt them, because Google keeps killing their products.

Some percentage of users don't trust Netflix anymore and don't start watching a series until they know it has an ending. A new show launches, it doesn't perform too well, so Netflix cancels it after the second season. Now, the people who enjoyed the show will be more sceptical of new shows, and now a larger percentage of users will "boycott" new shows.
They state (or did last I looked) that their priority is based on submission of quality AI test cases to their repository of such.
True, but they only feel the fire now, and you can tell they’re rapidly trying to productionalize stuff like you’ve described. It will take time though.

They were too risk averse before.
Sure, I would just be skeptical because nearly none of these newer methods actually have any research backing.

If we actually care about going off of studies than we already know that the best models for education is Direct Instruction and charter schools. But unless a hurricane literally destroys your city and you have no other option (like it did New Orleans) there is almost no political willpower to actually do it.
Am I understanding this right, that the leader of the UK has his official residence outside of the country in order to evade taxes? If so, it's pretty wild that that's accepted
Federal regulators call AI discrimination a ‘new civil rights frontier’
Very simple, actually. Access tokens are short-lived and are irrevocable - google services only check validity and expiration of those tokens.

Refresh tokens are more like session tokens/cookies - those get checked every time. At Google scale, checking it probably expensive, so they are using refresh tokens.

These aren't for end-user or development experience, those are for AS performance.
As a web dev next auth makes auth a breeze just add a provider and go (unaffiliated, just love how easy its made things).
Well he isn't directly but:

> someone needs to accept that they’re worse off and stop trying to maintain their real spending power by bidding up prices, whether higher wages or passing the energy costs through on to customers.

Coupled with prior remarks from the BoE governor:

> In the sense of saying, we do need to see a moderation of wage rises, now that's painful. I don't want to in any sense sugar that, it is painful

And add to that politicians using that (amongst other things) to deny pay rises for healthcare workers who've had a real-terms cut to wages of 25%+ over the past decade (when inflation was supposedly under control yet easy money was pumping risk assets like stocks).

Together, it all paints a picture of: hey we can't control prices for food and energy, and because of inflation we have to increase taxes, and also we can't pay you more, oh and because we're going to support energy prices we will also have to tax you more.

In totality, one should understand the frustration felt here is a culmination of the inequity that's been slowly building over a long time.

I'm lucky, I'm relatively well off but I don't want to live in a system that screws (or at least appears to screw) the least-well off at every turn.

As far as "why", Daniel Miessler convinced me with this: https://danielmiessler.com/blog/why-everyone-needs-a-blog/
Yes, multiple.

You can implement client credential mode - this means storing a credential and using it to acquire a token from OAuth2/OIDC provider, then using that token as Bearer Token in your API calls.

EDIT: I can add that I have implemented client credential mode in what was effectively raw PowerShell and similarly it can be done with curl from any shell script, even pretty dumb ones. Just do a single POST containing the necessary JSON structure to your OAuth2/OIDC provider, parse returned JSON to grab bearer token value, use said token value in header

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ${token}"

You can also implement any kind of authentication in your provider (or configure a 3rd party one) and make it accept it - then ensure that this authentication model is supported by your headless program when it receives a redirect to login page. For example I have implemented Kerberos 5 login this way - CLI program would connect to OIDC provider (keycloak), get offered HTTP Negotiate GSSAPI auth, perform it using users kerberos identity, get token, use that token to access AWS STS to acquire AWS token. Completely transparent to end user/service.

helping students retain the lessons is the primary job of a teacher. so unless the teachers (are trained to) make an effort here, i am skeptical. well designed lessons that build on each other help too, as do opportunities to apply the learned material, and giving students an opportunity to catch up if they realize that they have difficulties with new lessons because they didn't properly get the previous one.
There are quite a few Canadians who live close enough to, or travel across the border often enough that their personal phone/number is from a US carrier, usually the closest town or city to their own. Depending on how often or how you use your phone, it can be half the price of having a plan with a domestic carrier. As far as I'm aware, most of the US carriers only require that the device registers on their home network at least once every six months, and bills to a US address, meaning even just a semi-annual shopping trip to somewhere like Port Huron (where you can also purchase a PO box and therefore have a US billing address) can save you hundreds every year.

To add some more context, their excuse for high prices and mediocre service is generally something to do with the size of the country, which granted they aren't exactly wrong, until you realize that roughly 90% of the entire Canadian population lives within 160km (100 miles) of a US border. Canadian telecoms are a legal cartel, for all intents and purposes.
It’s so often a services problem. I honestly probably wouldn’t pay if it weren’t a family shared account, but my parents use it and they don’t know or care about the video quality like that.

I also just prefer the video player of my choice.

Paying customers should never have a worse experience than pirating customers. I think this is a huge reason for the success of music streaming. Less so for video streaming now with the huge fragmentation.
