But if you have this and the old authentication methods, doesn't that greatly reduce the security gains of this? I mean, the old methods still exist, so what you've done is increase the attack surface.

- Funding AI that adheres to the governments ideas of what is "ethical" and "responsible" despite massive public disagreement on how those terms manifest.

- Getting the largest tech firms in the world on board towards that goal.

The younger people (< 45) in CO are largely transplants. Many moved because of the outdoor life, pot legalization and because they visit friends and enjoy the culture. I think that younger influence plays a big role offsetting the traditionally conservative farmland.

Pedantically, though, the votes haven't been strictly progressive, more lowercase-L libertarian. Often the state votes to increase freedoms instead of traditional progressive/conservative lines.

Overall, i think the CO population is more drug-friendly than the average liberal US voting pool. Denver feels relatively moderate, politically, as we have so many influences from where people came from (east coast, california, texas). We have one of the most liberal (Boulder) and conservative (CO Springs) cities in the US. The things that the population collectively agrees upon is often the freedom-y bits.
Study is probably crap. An association between cannabis use and schizophrenia says nothing about which way the arrow of causation flows. It could very well be that cannabis use causes schizophrenia, or it could be that people feeling early signs of schizophrenia are more likely to use cannabis. There is no way to tell from this kind of study. Science is hard.
Don't forget the education cartel. GPT4 technology could essentially give everyone a 24/7 tutor in any subject they're studying at a tiny tiny fraction of the cost of a one-to-one human teacher. By almost every metric one-to-one learning overwhelmingly out-performs classroom learning (as the teacher has more time per student), but teachers unions are likely to heavily resist any move away from the traditional classroom model.
Starship will be able to do about the same but with more passengers and spending a small percentage of the trip in the atmosphere.
That's not how it works.

Publishers' relevance on, say, Google, relies partly on sponsored contents. They pay Google for this.

Publisher' income online is driven, by a very large margin, by advertisers. The largest online advertisement platforms are owned by both Facebook and Google. They essentially get a 68% cut from either of them. 32% goes to Facebook/Google.

Publishers relying on Google for content search get 51% of the ad revenue generated by it. 49% goes to Google.

One can see why Google and Facebook are in business with media publishers.

Now, Google News (the app) has 142 million active users. Google does not generate any of the content, and since most users only read headlines and skip the contents [0], this means that Google is making a boatload of money off contents they don't own, for people who aren't interested in going to the source.

That is the problem here.

And if Google or Meta were honest about it, they would just remove all the news links and shut down their news sites. Instead, they make a fuss about how unjust is for users to not have access to news through their platforms, and how news outlets benefit from their augmented outreach, like neither Meta nor Google are making money off it.

Maybe not bikes but small electric vehicles such as golf carts would be great.
Most wouldn't want to go to work all sweaty.

It amazes me that a lot of these green cities haven't incorporated a small golf cart lanes as most people work within a range of a golf cart distance to travel.

The cost would be a lot cheaper than a car, no need for insurance premiums(if so, very little) , and less maintenance than . Also could likely double the lane traffic within the equivalent car lanes.
The consumer would be more than willing to get on board using and buying golf carts just for the financial benefit of it.

>Aren’t CEOs paid ludicrously well to make long term decisions, rather than just flail around?

CEO's are neither prophets nor oracles. They are effectively dice-rolls with a face. Not rollers, but rolls. No matter what, sometimes you get bad numbers.

Founder CEO's like Lutke are heroes. They have skin in the game. This forces them to calculate their risks. Their actions and decisions have greater weight because of this - their payday is not guaranteed, especially early on in the game.

Non-founder CEO's are rent-collectors. They have no skin in the game. Unlimited upside and no downside. They get a handsome payday no matter what.

Non-founder CEO's and the absence of skin in the game is what yields the bastardy that is modern corporatism: highly-paid people who can flail around all they want and still land on their feet.

In this case, Lutke made a bad bet, but with Shopify's success, he's at the point where the result of his bets have no impact on him. He already got his payday.

But it's only good if you are going from one end of the tunnel to the other. You are cut off from all of the destinations in between. This is fine if you're talking about a tunnel that goes across a highway or something, but not great if you're bypassing all of downtown. I'd much rather see cars and trucks underground and bikes on the surface.

One could imagine a city where the streets are only for bikes/pedestrians/scooters/etc... and deliveries happen via underground tunnels where there is parking every other block and a freight elevator to bring the goods to the surface. A kind of futurist ideal that will never work because it would be horrendously expensive and the elevators would always be breaking down and as the city grew the system would be trapped at its current size and become increasingly overloaded over time.
I had a professor in grad school say that AI is just a search algorithm. I think that is an interesting way of framing things. Often times the model is just searching its training data for the right output. I don't think this diminishes the value of such models, recent advancements have shown how exciting "just a search algorithm" can be.
Don't many EU countries have a similar vehicle to I-bonds too? That might yield more.

NFPA requirements for road tunnels is an emergency exit every 1000ft/300m. Cross-passages to another tunnel are acceptable, including a parallel travel tunnel if there's automatic traffic control. They may also be stairs or ramps. Secondary tunnels are not common; typically they are for long and/or deep tunnels.

Dunno if the Vegas system would qualify as a road tunnel (thus NFPA 502) or some sort of transit tunnel, which might be a different thing. (I've not seen such exits provided in subway tunnels; emergency procedure seems to be "walk back to the station".)

But in a short shallow system like in Vegas, they could have periodic cross-passages or stairs to the surface. Dunno if they do; never been in it.

"What about Tiktok!!!" comments are either purposely obtuse or completely missing the point. Tiktok did not have a FTC judgment on them that they repeatedly violated. Meta does. There you go, explained.
These look like underground, single vehicle tunnels. It got me wondering why tunnels instead of building above ground. It looks like 1) tunnels are much less expensive in dense areas than above-ground roads, and 2) more tunnels can be added as needed by digging deeper (so the company says).

This is cool. I have no idea if they'll solve traffic jams or succeed as a business. There are many issues to solve (ventilation, safety exits, traffic from accidents and exit queuing, etc.). But, having lived in LA and seen how traffic alters livability of a region, I love that they're trying.
Comments like these make me wonder if they’re Meta employees that held onto their RSUs too long.
Completely false. There are no "sections" of the tunnel, it is all one uniform width. There is 3ft on each side of the car, which is more than most garages and parking spaces.

Tunneling can easily happen in any physics setup if things are moving fast enough - and with giant pizza peel hands, the rotation alone was causing things to move too quickly. And in general I don't think it makes sense to use a physics simulation for UI elements like that. You want the behavior to be as reliable and deterministic as possible, and that's easy to achieve without a physics sim for simple interactions.
He did his job and is getting rewarded for it.
I say this being EU-based: If the EU wants a viable tech sector, in AI or otherwise, it needs to offer a business environment that can compete with Silicon Valley both economically and in terms of regulation. As long it's more lucrative to run a business in SV (let alone be employed -), that is where all significant tech will happen, where all research will get implemented, and where most talented people will move.

You can fund bleeding edge research all day, it does nothing to get around this economic fact. Any European startup that gets off the ground very much does so despite being based in Europe.
This is exactly what is taught in business school. It's why you are a human resource, a thing to be used, rather than a human being with skills and a story and a life and needs

The short answer is basically "cities are liberal" and Colorado has a large city unlike the rest of the surrounding states.

The next question is why Denver is in Colorado and not anywhere else? The answer is that, from the beginning, Colorado had some geographic advantages and the leaders of the state pushed for intentional growth. As the state grew based on geographic advantages, the state was able to push for government contracts to get things like the National Energy Research Lab. The gov't contracts drew an educated population which drove the creation of a pretty big university system, and it all became self-reinforcing.

The surrounding states just don't have a big city like Denver. Utah is an exception with SLC but Utah has its own idiosyncrasies.

Intelligence is not knowledge, and this article heavily conflates those two. Does a person "use" his teachers "intelligence" when learning, or is he using his own intelligence, and the teacher's guidance and knowledge?

We freely allow other humans to learn from us and see it as a positive thing. It's completely hypocritical to think that AI shouldn't be allowed to do it. That's just setting up impossible conditions because of prejudice against AI.

I hope that the AI revolution will just make us finally reflect and also stop preventing human access to information and knowledge. Good luck competing with huge AI which was trained on so many things if most humans can't barely access scientific journals and other knowledge by other humans.

Information should be free of restrictions, and so should knowledge. Nobody is actually revealing anything significant in patent claims anymore, it's all obfuscation which undermines the point of the system. Scientific journals are such a joke, they put up prices for articles that they know nobody will pay.

I hope AI produces a ton of intellectual property theft. I hope it will crush down the concept of intellectual property to extinction. I didn't support this nonsense when it came to human, so I'm not going to support it when it comes to AI.

there are instant access savings accounts offering 3.5%

and if you lock it up for a year you can get 5%
The comparison seems strained to me too, but I assume the article referred to Kinbote there, not Shade.
> Using violence against people that disagree with your politics, or people that attempt to document your authoritarian violence is not “reacting to power”. It is power. You know this. I know you know this. Let’s not pretend otherwise.

Who is saying otherwise?? are you equating me with Antifa or something? You keep pretending I believe I’m so smart. I don’t think I am. I believe I’m a lumpenprole. I know what I know. Nothing more

I don’t know what you keep saying about me. Do you enjoy appealing to the status quo or centrism or moderation or civility?

So like I was saying to my audience:

Some people don’t understand what reactionary means…some people think communism isn’t reactionary. Then again those people typically don’t know what communism is. Nor socialism. Usually they don’t have much education outside the Global North or other privileges.

The appeal to authority fallacy is only valid if I’m asking someone to believe me because I have authority. I’m asking others to be at my level and understand what words mean. So I don’t have to talk down to them.

Alas, on you go. Also fallacies are a fallacy. It sounds like I’m talking to a techbro of VC bro or petit bourgeoisie.

> You’ll think I’m going to use it because your arguments are strong, but I’m using it because they are weak.

There is now the Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument in Maine--although that was (and probably still is) controversial among some locals. It's fairly remote by northeastern standards. It's adjacent to Baxter State Park but the latter significantly limits cars in the popular area of the park.

The issue for locals wasn't so much crowding as I recall but concerns about restrictions to traditional sporting uses of the land. I haven't really followed how all that played out.

Some less than fully formed thoughts, but what I think:

I'd say Colorado is (at least) 3 different states in a trenchcoat.

1. Cities mostly clustered together. The state is sort of weird geographically. Giant open plains to the east, and big ass scary mountains to the west. Lots of cities formed along the boundary between them, forming what is now called the 'Front Range'. Denver, Boulder, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, Longmont are all along here. Most of the population lives along this long corridor.

2. Rural farms and ranches. Both on the plains, and in the mountains, and the Western Slope (an area sorta coming out of the mountains towards the far west end of the state). This is fairly conservative, matching what other rural people in neighboring states. Include poorer mountain towns here, which are often farming focused.

3. Rich mountain towns. Skiing, or other attractions. Aspen, Vail, Breckenridge, Steamboat Springs, etc. The areas are very attractive due to natural beauty, but typically have geographical or weather reasons they can't really grow huge. That leaves richer and richer people driving out others. Many of these end up with a 'theme park' feel to them. Rich people have a condo that gets used a few times a year, and rented out another few times, but no real residency.

Generally though, the common theme through all of those is a love of the outdoors. Even those who want to drill aggressively for oil are out hunting and 4-wheeling. Granola hippies are out hiking, skiing, and backpacking. But practically everybody has at least a passing interest in the outdoors.

As for the comparison to other states that have swung super-conservative in recent years, I'd guess that it's to some degree that a more liberal western state had to exist somewhere, and it ended up as Colorado. If you want to move west, smoke pot and ski or hike all day, you go where others are already doing that. Other than accidents of history, I don't see any reason Wyoming couldn't have been shifted that direction. Colorado and Wyoming are very similar states geographically, and early-on economically. We both have ranching, farming, oil, mining. It'd be interesting to really dig in and figure out why one went one way, and the other a different way.
You have the right level of cynicism, but you should instead direct it at the field of DevSecOps as a whole.

98% of "SecOps" is utterly pointless boxchecking for ass-covering security certifications which waste immense amounts of time and enforce nothing meaningful. You could ABSOLUTELY 10x workflow efficiency there by plumbing the codebase for questions like:

"What are all the OSS libraries you use, and the licenses?"

"What's your test coverage?"

"Do you encrypt your passwords at rest?"

"Are your S3 buckets encrypted?"

instead of wasting developer time answering questionaires nobody reads.

I won’t say it’s impossible, but your suggestions do seem unlikely to me. We’re talking about unlabeled data, cropped to just the face, and the state of the art being found in commercial models in the real world rather than in papers competing to pass standard tests in the literature.

(From my direct experience they arguably are pretty close to magical; I think there is just a lot more information in pictures of faces than we thought there was. It’s quite plausible that, since native human machinery was evolved in groups of maximum ~150 distinct faces and was optimized for things like detecting minor emotional cues, our brains are simply throwing a lot of that information out. But that’s not really the point I want to make here; instead, I want to say stuff like “commercial models aren’t trailing research papers; research papers are trailing commercial models”.)
About a year ago, a study was published which looked at 3 types of SMRs and found that they produced more waste per unit energy produced, in part because smaller reactors have more neutron leakage. Of course, this new reactor was not one of the designs analyzed, but I wonder if the same concerns apply.
