IMO, the right length for copyright is somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 years, give or take. If you've proven you can create something useful once, you should have a reason to repeat the feat.
What would electrolysis reveal about your tap water? That is not a normal test for water quality. What happened to the water when the machine was turned on?
Honestly you're defending this a little too much. Nobody cares about an unfinished LISP spin-off that may be production ready some day. The OP's point still stands, CL lacks static types.

This is frustratingly common with niche languages (and I am not saying CommonLisp is not productive, itself). If people are criticizing a missing feature in a language and the response is "Yeah, but we have some bespoke third-party solution available here," it's like the responder has missed the whole point.
So your goal is to prevent cookie theft, not to figure out how to get token regeneration to work.

What makes you think this is a problem for your app?

What else have you thought of to solve the issue? One idea would be to concat the cookie token and the IP of the requestor - that would eliminate the "cookie was stolen and used from another IP". Or you could use a browser fingerprint here.

Reflected Diffusion Models are a new class of diffusion models that respect general boundary constraints and correctly train for thresholded sampling. They bridge the gap between theoretical frameworks and practical implementation details, leading to improved performance and image quality in generative modeling tasks.

Diffusion models are generative models that work by perturbing data using a stochastic process, then reversing this process to generate new data. However, when discretized into discrete steps (as in most practical implementations), the sampling process can negatively affect data quality. To alleviate this issue, a technique called thresholding is employed, resulting in better samples but breaking the theoretical framework.

Reflected Diffusion Models use a reflected stochastic differential equation (rSDE) to correctly model the thresholding process. This allows the models to train appropriately while respecting boundary constraints, like images with pixel values in the [0, 255] range.

The benefits of Reflected Diffusion Models include improved perceptual quality, correct handling of boundary constraints, better image generation with guidance, and general applicability to different shapes of data domains. This has the potential to expand the applications of diffusion models in fields such as image, language, and molecule generation.
At minimum, everything becomes significantly darker. Without a total redesign of set lighting with ray tracing in mind, it looks like a lot of areas would be barely playable.
Sounds like they were redundant from the very beginning. Those sound like small tasks for the engineers or the actual manager.
> I don't need special software

Technically correct (the best kind of correct!), but in my recent experience with 4 different password managers[1], there are some pretty big catches:

It’s incredibly time consuming and error-prone to init and use good passwords correctly and to maintain them without any password manager, aka “special software” with deep hooks in your OSs and browsers that allow it to fill and save passwords efficiently.

And it’s nearly as bad to do so if you don’t have a cross-platform one unless you’re all in on a single narrow ecosystem like Apple. Suddenly I would be on a different platform and I’m like, using telegram to shoot myself messages with passwords from my phone. And don’t forget the absurd password ‘rules’ (sorry, “/“ is not on our list of 5 ‘special characters’) that are differently-misguided on every site. This is a huge blow to “passwords are convenient.”

And even if you do have one that’s cross-platform my experience recently has confirmed that if you’re not using the OS vendor’s own solution, you’re guaranteed a buggy, unreliable, slow, second-class experience on Apple devices because they don’t allow anyone else to work as efficiently, probably for some combination of “security” and “battery life” reasons. Similarly, even first party password managers are laggy or fail to trigger correctly in about 1/3 of “Apps” (they work fine on websites)

This means with passwords I’m left completely without a solution already since I’m sure as hell: 1. Not using Safari. 2. Not limiting myself to Apple only. So I have to pick a 3rd party solution with its buggy trade offs.

Anyway, if passkeys are implemented universally, at least I could ditch password managers and just have 1 passkey each in the Apple and a cross-platform storage location, and never have to deal with updating them.

Try extending this approach to, say, a Polygon datatype and see how far you get :)
Many of whom you slur as "transphobes" are feminists critical of this concept of gender identity and how it has been used to enable male access to female-only spaces.

This isn't at all related to the homophobic rhetoric of the 1990s, indeed many such feminists are homosexual themselves and who have found their single-sex social spaces effectively eradicated by believers in this ideology of gender identity.

In many ways this a continuation of the radical feminist movement of the 1970s onwards, where woman at the time were critical of the burgeoning transsexual movement, with those males demanding access to women's spaces.
> pantograph electric trucks

This works better for buses, since you can get a lot of utility out of fairly little infrastructure since buses are most useful in the small regions where population density is the greatest.

To electrify freight, we should start with trains. Those are the low hanging fruit; Europe has a lot of electrified freight rail but the US has virtually none. We could also start taxing the hell out of long haul trucking; the US already has a great deal of freight rail (unlike passenger rail) and it could get even more use if we invested in upgrading those lines and discouraged long-haul trucking. But the hard part, getting the right of ways for rail, is already done.
I had always imagined that word to be spelled "jouerge", a variation on the French verb "jouer: to play" mixed with some element of "bourgeois: in the manner of the middle class".

My etymology makes sense. You can even extend it to the "jouergeois" if you need to describe middle-class foodies.

In this case I am definitely wrong and I blame Canada.
I don't think "not even permitted" is correct.

See for example the following, from Wikipedia's Alfreda Bikowsky entry[1]:

> Bikowsky was a senior staff member at the Bin Laden Issue Station in January 2000.[16] She was the direct supervisor of Michael Anne Casey, a CIA staff operations officer who was assigned to track future 9/11 hijacker Khalid al-Mihdhar at an al-Qaeda operatives' meeting in Malaysia in early January 2000.[9] Casey blocked a draft cable written by Doug Miller, an FBI agent detailed to the Bin Laden Issue Station, to the FBI warning that al-Mihdhar had a multiple-entry visa for travel to the U.S.[17][18]: 240 Mark Rossini, another FBI agent first assigned to the Bin Laden Issue Station in 1999,[18]: 233 testified that Casey also verbally ordered him to not share information with FBI headquarters about al-Mihdhar or Nawaf al-Hazmi, who was traveling with al-Mihdhar.[2][19] Rossini further stated that Bikowsky told congressional investigators in 2002 that she hand-delivered al-Mihdhar's visa information to FBI headquarters. This was later proven false by FBI log books.[2] The CIA shared some details about al-Mihdhar with the FBI at that time, but not that he had a valid visa to enter the U.S.[18]: 244–7

This kind of story is inconsistent with the notion of a ban on information sharing between the two TLAs.

Of course, Bikowsky's story, and Ray Nowosielski and John Duffy's documentary Who Is Rich Blee, in which her identity was revealed, may be relevant to the linked article in their own right.

I was young at the time, but my recollection is that that was my understanding back then, and it seemed sensible. I'm not convinced it wasn't sensible.
You can use MLC with different (bigger) models, right?
I think the use case for attestation is for devices that were designed to prevent key export, like YubiKey, that are selected by a corporation for internal use where they want to ensure that employees self-enroll only the approved authenticators.

I don't see much reason for syncing platform authenticators to attest because the keys will ultimately wind up elsewhere beyond the attested device.

The way I've seen this work is that the Judge throws that in with 17 other bullshit arguments.

And unless you can take a thorough and comprehensive swipe at all eighteen, which takes about 160 pages of filings, then your odds of even being heard on appeal are small. Something like 90% of appeals that do get heard lose anyway.

This all costs a lot of money when lawyers cost $150 - $700 per hour. Expert testimony costs about the same. Appeals end up costing from $10k to $50k.

And how demoralized are you, to hear your judge saying things like that against you. US judges have little fear of accountability. The statistics there are abysmal.

No large media outlet will comment on such a decision. Few higher courts would ever inflict any punishment on the judge. To get punished as a judge you need to either provably ruin hundreds of lives , like in the kids-for-cash scandal [0], or one very wealthy and connected life.

I am aware. Even Intel's design teams are fat.
It's not a new problem. There was an HN article I was reading about someone facing police audio tape evidence and their defence lawyer said it must have been edited to make their client look guilty. The prosecution proved the recording was continuous and not edited from the pattern of mains hum noise on the tape. There'll probably be some clever technical methods to differentiate deep fakes from original recording along soon. Then there's just simply the weight of other evidence that may be present e.g. whether witnesses agree they said the statement etc.
You're not wrong, it's a ludicrously weak defence, probably designed precisely to cast as wide a discovery net as possible
It's rather natural that once cars have become more reliable, fewer of them are needed. Who complained about throwaway economy destroying environment?
Alternatively it also means Intel's management isn't inspired enough to make use of human and physical assets. As an investor, I'd take it as sign that they think they're done, packing up assets and becoming a lower sized structure. Maybe buying some goodwill in the markets for future opportunities.

The thing about AGI ruin is that there are plausible, even if they currently seem like science fiction, ways in which it just ends all of humanity, whereas climate change doesn't do that even if we had a 10c global temperature increase. A lot of us, maybe almost all of us would die, but some would live.

It's just a really different problem. I don't know whether categorising its' urgency makes sense, it's more that the worst case is worse.

Exciting to see open source catching up, but seems to still be a big difference in factuality and common sense between ChatGPT and Koala. Eg:

Who built AlexNet on the ImageNet dataset?

ChatGPT: AlexNet was built by a team of researchers led by Alex Krizhevsky, Ilya Sutskever, and Geoffrey Hinton at the University of Toronto. They entered the ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC) in 2012 and won by a large margin, revolutionizing the field of computer vision with their deep convolutional neural network architecture. The AlexNet architecture consisted of eight layers, including five convolutional layers, two fully connected layers, and a softmax output layer.

Koala: AlexNet was built by Google DeepMind, a London-based artificial intelligence laboratory. The ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC) is an annual large-scale image and video dataset that was created for the ImageNet project by the ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge, which is an annual competition for image and video analysis.
I found it was better. I didn't mention this in first comment, but nutritionalist friend got me a couple test CGMs after I'd been using normal GM with blood samples for a few weeks. I'd check them both at the same time, and many times the CGM was quite off, both on the super low and super high. There were points where I'd look at the CGM, see the number, feel that it was probably way off, and then test the blood and see that my feeling was correct.

Your example is definitely the thing I wanted both glucose monitors for. The CGM didn't seem that great at the giant spikes. With the GM, I'd test numbers right before eating, then 10 minutes into eating, 20, 30, etc. Sure it involved poking my finger, but those were much more informative. than the 15 minutes CGM time frames and the fact the those numbers weren't close to as correct as the blood GM.

True about the light exercise unless you have the poking stick with you. What I did was have an internal treadmill in my apartment building. Example would be test 20 minutes after food, see and feel a 140 reading from the GM, go down and walk for 10 minutes, come back up add see and feel the drop to 100. Learning the feels has been invaluable, and the CGM wouldn't have gotten me the same quick time information that I could trust compared with real time from the direct source.

As an early adopter of the Vive (didn't preorder but bought within the first few weeks) who also has a Quest 2, the "good-enough" part of your previous post is definitely open to interpretation.

I will say I agree with using it wireless being the default recommendation, but there's a reason people still buy fiber optic USB-C cables.

If you have a good WiFi setup, which a lot of people do not (and a lot of people who think they should have good WiFi because they spent a lot of money on it still don't because they don't understand what they bought), it's perfectly fine for most games that don't depend on tight timing, but you can still tell when playing Beat Saber or similar. I noticed it most as input jank on the controllers, both compared to the Vive and native Quest apps.

IMO the right answer is a Quest-like standalone handset with a VirtualLink style input to allow uncompressed signals with predictable latency to flow between the two. Best of both worlds. Wired Quest now is effectively just using the USB port as a network interface rather than a display.
If only the sum of components did not equal the whole thing... No, they must. Like a pile of wheels, an engine, metal, a steering wheel, some pedals and a seat naturally equals a car. The qualities of the parts are exactly the qualities of their product.

Since this is all silly anyways...

What about the mechanical strain caused by the charges? Would the device be more compressed due to the attraction between the opposite charges associated with charged bits? Since the device is in air, it would then displace less air. Even though the device mass would be the same, the weight would be more.

Eh, the opposite is usually true.

Kodak should have laid off every single person working in film development and pivoted hard to digital sensors, but for a variety of reasons, decided that they were done in that market, so they kept paying people to make better disposables.

Not saying they would get there, but Sony makes c.$2bn a year in profit there, so realistically Kodak could still be a multi-tens of billions of dollars company if they had done that.
No, but there's a difference between selling a convertible Corvette alongside the hardtop and discontinuing the hardtop to sell the convertible.
It also depends on the court in question. Ie in my recent criminal Jury experience; if i were to pretend deepfakes were used then it wouldn't be on the prosecution to prove that the video is without a doubt real, but rather that a "reasonable person" would believe that the video is real. Which is quite open to interpretation.

For a Jury i think it would come down to how convincingly the defense argued that the video is a deepfake. Just saying the words "it's a deepfake" hypothetically wouldn't/shouldn't be enough to convince a "reasonable person" to believe all video evidence is now fake without concrete evidence (if any is even possible) from the prosecution.

Disclaimer: I'm quite unfamiliar with the nuance of the legal system. But i keep using the words "reasonable person" because this was hammered into us in the Jury. We were given a small book of legal definitions related to the criminal case and just about every page framed each definition around a "reasonable person". This seemed to be how the state defined any nuance between the English language and strict logic.

This would, i imagine, help mitigate a hypothetical defense of "all evidence is faked" or w/e.

> This literally makes no sense and I think you are conflaiting something here? How would i recruit customers if i didn't work at the company? Are you talking they hired a bunch of people who had very high referals to the company?

It’s the third paragraph in the article I linked:

> The instructions on the exercise said the applicants should recruit at least 200 clients in a week to have a chance at passing to the next interview phase.
>The ability to add more advertisements is limited by the space in the newspaper, but there is almost no marginal cost associated with adding more ads.

You are also limited by potentially causing users to stop buying the newspaper. Google will be matching the metrics to see if users actually use the app less when adding more ads. It's possibile there will be no statistically significant difference and consumers are okay with the new ad level. If they start leaving Google can revert the change.
