Not really an option near; or in Silicon Valley.

You pay the savings in sanity points when you get roommates or family. No amount of savings is worth it.

Downpayments for houses in that area with a 740+ credit score is at least 200k and only goes up from there, don't know many parents that could help that much given the high amount taxable event, that's also not taking into account most homes have significant maintenance the first year, you never know what you'll find.

I've seen some places where they found out they had to fix the foundation after opening up to do some safety fixes, ended up costing around 120k. Involved a hillside sliding too so geotechnical engineer had to come in, no clue how much that cost after all was said and done. Wasn't found during the normal pre-sale inspection.
Yeah, it's especially toxic to capitalism when tight oligopolies (like the car industry, telecoms, mobile phone OSs) develop. Barriers to entry are super high, so when one company does a customer-hostile move like this and makes money, the others know everyone else will follow suit too, so rather than advertise how they won't exploit you like the bad guys do, everyone just adopts or "improves on" the d*ck move. Think about it. Some car company was the first to do a Destination Fee. Some ISP invented the bandwidth cap. And somehow these became universal, because who would/could challenge the oligopoly?
These are pretty big SMRs - 300 MWe, compared to 77MWe from NuScale. Definitely an iteration of reduced size from their 1 GWe model, as opposed to a "as small as reasonable" design.

It's cool that they call out 15 MWe / min "load following" capability. Ramping up and down in response to renewables will be an important function of any nuclear reactor installed today.
A union doesn't protect against layoffs.
It's probably also the mental health [1], less intimacy with their peers (imo reflected in [2] teen sex plummeting), less face time with peers in general in part due to increased homework loads (if you went to school in the 90s, your kid is prob doing 2x the hw you did) [3] which is of dubious effectiveness anyway [4].

I'm not saying it's not the guns. But I am saying that the US is the only developed country with the problem on this scale and it's a probably a far deeper cultural issue than just access to weaponry.

Forcing students to wear clear bags is ridiculous security theatre to the particular detriment of students with needs from (possibly undiagnosed) scoliosis etc. Thank God that there are no winter coats which could easily hide a pistol and several mags or a knife! All this policy achieves is scaring people.

Rant, I think the usage of the term hallucination in this context is entirely too anthropomorphic.
In the future, only investment firms will own homes and everybody will be renting their whole life. At the end of their lives, they will have no inheritance to pass on to their children.

You will own nothing.
If that means you don't hit a brick wall when you try to go slightly beyond what it is capable of then I'm all for it.
If you're so against hearing any kind of rationalization or nuance about the drawbacks of unchecked population growth, please buy a ticket from Elon and turn some other planet into your Coruscant. Because some of us like this one, and we humans are destroying it with that kind of selfish thinking.

It's as if some people can't see that there might be middle ground between say an evil Eugenics master plan and a little bit better family planning for a few generations.
> was part of the workforce I would be even more pissed just at the company itself. Laying off 12k and cuts in perks after $60B in net income.

This cuts both ways. How many of those laid off had any connection to that profit?
I actually designed the original serverless system (a few years back when I was still at Prime Video), and yes we did and it did sort of look like it could work until it didn't. Obviously wasn't the right solution for the scale we had in mind (or rather the type of problem we were working on) but it's sad to see the mistake of one team be used to justify shitting on serverless as a general solution.
A pin is not "something you know" legally. Biometrics are especially not.
In that case, what does it indicate that most successful and productive to date research centers for AI, like Google and OpenAI, have comprehensive diversity hiring policies that far exceed anything required by law?

And of course, the federal government is not mandating any behavior by private businesses - it is setting the charter for a publicly funded public resource initiative. The federal government often sets in writing directives for its agencies that the average Joe would view as common sense. For example, I think it's common sense that an effectively disseminated public resource initiative to expand America's AI workforce nationwide would result in building a diverse workforce.
I made a demo integrating deno and sqlite into a quasi-"lambda" runtime in 200 lines for a rust meetup talk, if anyone is interested https://github.com/tbillington/rust_serverless_runtime.
Nasty closing sentiment aside (talk about poisonous), it should be self-evident to even a child that endless growth and finite resources aren't compatible.

Either we make sensible choices while we still can make choices, or face widespread famine and the inevitable oppressive regimes that follow it.
The rich benefit and the workers are left exploited.

Good grief.

The highest paid workers on the planet, work for google. You should spread this communist blather at the proper place, coffee shops where workers aren't paid a living wage.

Not people able to retire wealthy, is they invest their salary coreectly.

Talk about entitlement.
Yes, and get an RO system to remove PFAS first
What "capitalization rate" (?) that banks use includes the publicly traded share price in its calculation?

If you live a stable life at the same place for 40 years, yes.
Yep, corporate feudalism. But feudalism tends to end in (violent) land reform.
There are a lot of factors, but if you don't move, then I can't see any realistic scenario where renting comes out ahead in the long term.

In my area, the price-to-rent ratio is nearly 1:1. When I bought my house in 2015, my mortgage payment (30 year fixed) was about $1,500/month (Plus ~$400/month property tax). Zillow estimated the rental value at $1,700/month. From the listings I've seen in my area, Zillow's rental value is pretty close to what people are paying.

In my case, I would have been insane to choose to rent instead of buy. The thing to remember is that rent always goes up. 30 years from now, the rent could easily be anywhere from $4,000-7,000/month. Meanwhile I'll be making my final $1,500 mortgage payment.

Yeah, if my water heater explodes, I'm on the hook for it. But a single month of savings in the difference between renting and buying years from now would cover the cost.
Warren Buffets salery has been $100.000 for decades. And as far as I know Berkshire doesn't do stock based compensation at all, Buffet just holds the shares he always held.
Competitive esports is a bit different from mindlessly playing video games, it has far more to do with consistency, reliability, and marketing. Additionally, the person was being quite dismissive, this dude was already studying CS at a university.
Men have it much, much, easier in the beauty standards department then women. If a man can't get laid his looks have relatively little to do with it. There are fat short dudes out there absolutely killing it in the romance world. Personality, empathy, and good attitude are worth their weight in gold.
I wonder if binge watching hours and hours of hires cloud dynamics will make me look at the local sky and be able to predict things.

Office UI was reinvented at least one time. I remember when that god awful ribbon showed up.

"In 2003, I was given the chance to lead the redesign of the most well-known suite of productivity software in the world: Microsoft Office.

"Every day, over a billion people depended on apps like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook, so it was a daunting task. This was the first redesign in the history of Office, and the work that we did ended up shaping the standard productivity experience for the next two decades."

Looking at some of the examples in the docs [1]. Seems very odd that the mixin class they provided essentially lets you use bounded/instance variables and methods as class attributes and class method. Nevertheless, this seems very promising and I'm happy someone spent time on this

Algo trading and even general swe at the top places (e.g. citadel) will pay better than the top tech firms.
It has gotten hard to get the information from the tls connection out of chrome and the icon is really misleading. The new icon is in my opinion better for the button
FaceID asks for the passcode to enable itself every few days it seems. Not sure the frequency.

And clicking the side button ten times locks it to needing the pass phrase.

C certainly does have struct types.

Apparently you mean something by "struct types" other than the well known C feature. Can you elaborate?
Maybe you shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover…
Isn't that the entire point of the article and study that we are commenting on?
Scientific datasets from unique projects are typically embargoed for several months, to give the participating scientists time to publish. This is also true for the US.
They redirect you if you aren't logged in so you can't use them as an anonymous proxy. If you're logged in on your homeserver, you'll get that server's view of the post.
No middleman was eliminated (at least in the US). Also, the discount would come on the base price, not for an add-on.
Yeah that’s what I’m getting after

It’s reasonable to assume criticism in that context
As I live a world away from NYC, I will be there in spirit :-)
It sounds like you’re reading things into the article that aren’t in the article.
You test it for various common and uncommon cases.
Like how does it influence fruit fly fertility if the concentration is above x%.

But nothing is 100% sure in the real world, if that was your point, but for practical matters we can get close enough, if we want to. But I know that quite some tests are not being done, because the results would not be welcome.
I mean, this sort reads to me like the software development "It's not too hard, all you have to do is..." morass that I'm sure we've both encountered at one point or another.

Then comes account switching, which you manually have to do as it's not natively supported by any of the clients. This is especially a pain.

What I'm looking for as a user is a way to optionally obscure what my base profile name is, since the server name is what people interact with anyways, and to not list mutual servers by default in the profile (or at least, be able to turn it off).

It's not even really for a nefarious purpose, I just like having nice and clean compartments for different areas of interaction. It's predictable and keeps the world a lot smaller in a nice an structured kind of manner.
Such hyperbole. Saudi Aramco is superior in every financial metric. I don’t know anyone can say this with a straight face while Aramco exists.

(Since we’re bringing up companies nobody else mentioned)
Deep Floyd doesn't allow commercial usage, such as a game studio using it.
From what I’ve read recently, most sparse methods just haven’t given that much improvement yet, and we’re only recently pushing up against the limits of the “just buy more RAM” approach.

It sounds like there is a lot of work happening on sparse networks now, so it’ll be interesting to see how this changes in the near future.
Sure it can be objectively good even if another is even better
Yet another link to a mastodon instance that can't handle more than 10 concurrent users...
FATCA reporting.

Roughly speaking Congress was worried about Americans hiding money abroad to avoid taxes so they passed extremely punitive laws. This ended up being mostly pointless because the real tax evasion is done by people who pay lawyers and lovbyists to make sure it's all legal.

If a foreign financial institution has a US depositor they have to fill out a ton of IRS paperwork. If they mess it up the IRS can impose an extra 30% tax on all the institution's US income.
My understanding is that schizophernia is a predisposed condition. Cannabis can trigger it but not really cause it. (That's at least what I got from talking to a professional). One clue to find out whether you are predisposed is if you have someone in the family (related genetically) who has at-birth mental health issues. Then stay a gazillion miles clear of any drugs.
This seems to be a smaller version of the AP1000. Nice big containment vessel. That's a good thing. Fukushima had an undersized containment which failed, and Chernobyl didn't have much of one at all. Three Mile Island had a good containment vessel, and so their meltdown damage was contained.

Some of the "small modular nuclear reactor designs are built on the assumption that they don't need a full scale containment vessel because nothing can go that wrong. That may not be a good assumption. There's a lot to be said for large amounts of steel and concrete around reactors.
I wonder if they'll update Chrome to support Keychain on Mac.
At current astronomical prices, "buying" means "renting from a bank" and volunteering as unpaid landlord.
It's funny to me that no one complained about Sundar's pay when things were going swimmingly well.
nah, Lora quantized LLM’s are going to be at the OS level in 2 years and consumer architecture refreshes are just going to extend more RAM to already existing dedicated chips like Neural Engine

I have a 65" 4K TV, but I don't have cable or a TV antenna. I watch all of my content from Netflix, YouTube and other sources. I wouldn't put up with ads.
You buy a stock, post some “open source intelligence” to convince people they should also buy the stock and sell your shares before eventually you run out of people to convince to buy and the stock returns to “market value”.

I’m no Wall Street guru but that doesn’t sound like a pump and dump scheme at all.

Some of the other stuff they do is kind of funny in a “some people just want to watch the world burn” kind of way.
The federation occurred when the post was made, it was sent out to other servers and stored there. Then it got served to those users directly, without further contacting chaos.social.

To understand how it's decentralized, search for @jonty@chaos.social on your own fediverse home server and the post will pop up.

There's a particular user story here which is a bunch of people who don't have accounts on any server, wanting to see the content from a central location (chaos.social). I do think it's worth talking about this story and ways to fix it but it's not really accurate to blame it on the federation behavior.
Homebridge with the Hue plugin is incredibly simple and easy to put together, can put it on a Raspi. I’d recommend trying it.
Yes, they will strongly gate keep it, as is typical for publicly funded data in Europe :(

It'll be part of the same licence structure - 8000 euros per year for a licence to use and distribute, 4000 without distribution.
Isn't even close?

The PDF is a summary/introduction for a whitepaper.

The last page links to the whitepaper for more information. Using the word whitepaper. And you need to either go there or somewhere with the same content for a full understanding.

Come on, work with people. It's very clear what they meant, and their wording is reasonable.

I don't even need to go into how they were using quotes to be inclusive of things similar to whitepapers...
Thank you for the picture there, that was very interesting. My one doubt about all this is if mode-switching really does burn telomeres. Is there any actual evidence of this? I find it hard to imagine that somewhere along the course of evolution we didn't adapt a less destructive way to manage switching metabolic modes.

Wow that stuff sounds extremely dangerous.
I'm pretty sure most folks cannot modify the firmware of the overwhelming majority of devices they own. This isn't much different.
Large government civil projects funded by new corporate taxes would do a wonder for many of these charts.
Yes, and he gets paid royally to be the one that gets criticized.
The gods tried this with fire once. They were successful - at least they thought they were - until one day some guy named Prometheus upends the whole thing by giving it away to humans.

Next thing you know, gods are mythic, not worshipped.

Lessons here are multiple, but my quick take is that they can regulate the heck out of it, and it still won’t matter. AI is not going away.

Are you familiar with the medical pathway in the US? Software really isn't comparable for any but maybe the absolute most extreme developers.

1) Premed - 4 year degree + easily 1-2k+ hours spent volunteering, doing research, gaining medical work experience, obtaining LOR, shadowing, MCAT prep etc. This isn't optional if you actually want any chance of being accepted. Fail to get in and you're working with a (typically) biochem bachelors as a lab tech for $12 an hour and no upward mobility outside of grad school.

2) Medical School - another 4 years of pretty much nonstop studying outside mandated classwork and clinicals. Multiple large exams that basically dictate your entire future and whether you'll be able to match (ie. actually work as a doctor ever) along the way. A few thousand fail to match each year and invested 8 years + 250k med school + 50-100k undergrad to go back to that lab tech career I mentioned at $12/hr. Keep in mind those student loans are non-dischargable through bankruptcy.

3) Residency - 3-7 years. Family Medicine is one of the least rigorous and shortest at 3 years and averages about 10k hours of on the job during that time making less than minimum wage. Surgery is more like 80+ hours/week for much longer with 28 hour shifts standard at the start (minimum, better hope you don't have to finish any work at the end). Oh and don't fuck up because you literally have lives in your hands and face multi-million dollar lawsuits if you mess up after being awake for 20 hours straight on the job.

At the end of all of this and if you matched the most competitive specialties and busted your ass you might be able to make as much as a senior level SV software dev. Or you might be a pediatrician making 150k/yr if that appeals to you more than being wrist deep in someones bowels all day every day, or getting a 3 AM call to come do neurosurgery, or an urgent heart cath. Not feeling it tonight? Well someone is going to literally die if you aren't there within the next 30m- sleep well.
It's not at all strange to get something to work before you start optimizing. I mean if you can only run small models then how would you even know what you're losing by optimizing for space? Heck you wouldn't even know how the model behaves, so you won't know where to start shaving away.

I'm not saying it's impossible but if resources allow it makes a lot of sense to start with the biggest model you can still train. Especially since for whatever reason things seem to get a lot easier if you simply throw more computing power at it (kind of like how no matter how advanced your caching algorithm it's not going to be more than 2 times faster than the simplest LRU algorithm with double the amount of cache).
DNSSEC adoption is pretty low outside of customers of large nameserver providers (that support DNSSEC out of the box), and also requires the registrar and registry support DNSSEC too. Unfortunately there are still some out there that don't.
I feel like there's also a middle-ground of medium/smaller cities that may still have a nice downtown, amenities, etc, and be affordable, without being a national culture hub
If the definition of disease is any condition that puts you in a state of dis-ease, then a drug that promotes a state of ease would be a valid treatment!

Therefore marijuana is a cure-all. ;)

Pliny the Elder would be so proud of me.
The development of anesthesia predates the FDA. Look at how Morton, Liston, and others were developing and using anesthesia for surgery without regulatory oversight. Regulation came later.

Antibiotics were developed and saw use without FDA oversight. I don't think Penicillin ever underwent the clinical trials that drugs do now. Only after issues surfaced, were they regulated more strictly.
These models are going to be anthropomorphized to death. It’s great marketing
We may not have seen the last of Clippy yet… https://gwern.net/fiction/clippy
Math notation is different from the notation of that computer language. Oh no.
Can we please stop making marijuana so strong.

I already cut my marijuana with 50% CBD, and that's still plenty strong that I only need a single hit to be plenty high.

I can't for the life of me understand why there's a race to the highest imaginable THC percentage, when it so clearly has an adverse effect on the experience.
These "open source" ai models are more like Obtainable models. You can obtain them. The source is not open, hence open-source. Somewhere open-source got lumped in with free or accessible. Obtainable makes sense to me.
Why would other shareholders vote out the board? There's no reason to think their interests wouldn't align with Page and Brin.

Do you think Blackrock has substantially different motivations? Like, come on.

The PropTech Disruption of 2023: Four Early-Stage Trends and Startups Reshaping Residential Real Estate

Interesting:

There are many questions right now in both the commercial and residential real estate industries in the United States. According to Bloomberg and Morgan Stanley, “1.5 trillion of U.S. Commercial real estate debt comes due for for repayment before the end of 2025” (Source). In a high interest rate and inflationary environment, less and less institutional investors are buying commercial real estate. Institutions and retail are opting for highly liquid investment opportunities, keeping money on the sidelines, and even trying to get out of assets that are illiquid. With a clear sight of struggle ahead in commercial real estate, there is bound to be technological disruption. We will start by going over commercial real estate trends and then dive into residential real estate trends, as well as focus on four software startups and trends within residential real estate. Let’s cover commercial real estate first to understand the second and third order factors that may have an impact on residential real estate.
Nope, I read every tendentious word and got the point that the author wanted me to get. It's not like she's not already a known voice (albeit with nothing new to say) in this space.
