Another issue with Discord naming is I picked my name for gaming voice chat many years ago and now it doesn’t make any sense for people at work or in developer groups. They clearly copied BattleNet at the time, and it was cool to be known by the name we wanted.

So which name will people pick: a public real name like in Twitter or their gaming pseudonym?

As for why, my guess is Discord just wants to add feeds/advertising ala FB/Instagram and the names are completely broken for that.

Tony’s story is a story of untreated bipolar disorder, which often is accompanied by addictions, narcissism, etc. People with bipolar can ride their mania to great success, but as they tilt into unreality they damage themselves. Seeking to reclaim the mania during the depressive phase they turn to drugs, which can induce a fleeting mania. The story of Tony is more a story of the opportunists who exploited his mental illness and fed his mania for their own profit. It’s not an indictment of tech, moguls, myths, or whatever. It’s an indictment of the state of mental health care in the US and the unfettered greed of our fellow man.
Logic used to cost far more than that. When Logic 6 came out it sold for $999 and was a great deal because they’d finally bundled all the plugins and synths in to one package. To buy the whole package before than was thousands.

It's interesting to see beauty, appearance, and eating disorders called out, along with racism and bullying, but little else. Those are absolutely problems, and rabbit holes to keep out of, but I'm not sure that calling some specifics out really encompasses the whole problems, or the higher level problems that exist above the topic of content.

At a higher level, short video content has become a super refined version of americas funniest home videos and mtv. There is no narrative between videos, and it just constantly presses the dopamine button.

Then you get the split videos where you have a sensory video playing alongside someone talking.

It also doesn't talk about faux excitement. Every other youtuber that isnt Miss Rachel is yelling or screaming, and basically producing entire videos of hysterical feigning of shock, mouth agasp. That transcends nearly any topic.

It also doesnt talk about learning to navigate youtube vs being fed youtube by youtube.

It also doesnt talk about advertising, especially the organicish kind. Teaching kids that the video about a guy making pancakes with Prime is a Prime ad.

It also doesnt talk about replacing friends with celebrities.
Pretty sure GPT4 can do that trivially. Think harder.
Wow, that sounds harsh, stay safe. I would recommend using the time to focus on basics. The older I get the more I appreciate that I learned C, some assembly, traditional multitasking, basic data structures and algorithms on manageable platforms. Also networking protocols, implement a UDP based protocol for something from scratch and learn about handshakes, timeouts and retries.

This could be done on Linux, Windows or even a real-time OS like FreeRTOS. Could be on a solar-powered Raspberry Pi or something that requires almost no other infrastructure.

Is ham-radio based networking an option? Could be useful in crisis areas.
I think the US needs to come to terms with the fact that it’s eccentric people who create change, and who ultimately stand out in society. This has both bad and good parts.

This obsession with how everyone should be perfect and somehow business, media, but really all leaders need to be perfect is a ridiculous notion. It’s also really unhelpful when you dismiss the good parts of someone because they have bad parts.

I’m sorry but everyone has good and bad parts, anyone who claims they don’t is a fraud. The good parts should be celebrated, the bad parts not, but you can’t have one without the other.
You are hysterical, possibly b/c your interpretation is pessimistic. But most people interpret such an occurrence as a sign they are lucky.

I recommend you adopt such an attitude b/c it is healthier and b/c, when your story is retold, people will often want to touch you (so that the "good luck" rubs off on them)!

Probably, I just don’t think executives can drive that kind of innovation. Especially those who are in sustaining roles in already large and successful companies.

>The police found placards and “items which at the time they had reasonable grounds to believe could be used as lock-on devices,” according to the statement, and arrested six people “on suspicion of going equipped for locking on.”

>The protesters who were arrested said that the devices were in fact luggage straps to fasten banners. After the police investigation failed to prove that anyone had intended to use the straps to lock on, all six had their bail canceled and no further action would be taken against them, the police said.

Other people right pointed out to download some e-books.
"Today, we’re announcing that *IF* our systems identify that someone has visited one of these places, we will delete these entries"

Everyone citing Google's statement is ignoring that conditional clause.

If they identify the person as going to the Starbucks next door, they won't delete the entry. If they identify the person as going near an abortion clinic but not _to_ the abortion clinic, they won't delete the entry.

There is a reason the pen is considered mightier than the sword.

A blade kills an enemy while it's wielder is alive, fit, and wielding it in anger.

The pen shapes the very thinking of entire generations. Anyone who says the space of violence is disjunct from the space of words is a downright fool. Hell, politics is just violence in it's Sunday/Friday/Saturday best.
I think what's missing from this is the ROI calculation. They see AI as having degraded quality compared to human authors, but the difference in quality doesn't produce enough profit to offset the cost of hiring a human staff.
you're describing the exact chicken and egg problem that we need to take the first steps on with "people still need a car in Seattle". That's only true because Seattle forced buildings and roads to be car oriented for decades, reforms like this are meant to reverse that because the environmental costs are catastrophic.

People don't necessarily need cars in NYC, Chicago, DC, SF, etc because a majority of the housing in those places was built before car oriented zoning became the norm in basically every major city. We have to start rolling that back, it's insane policy.

I think there's a difference in conversation style here.

If somebody says "I think x" I've always felt it was entirely reasonable to respond with "I disagree because y" - that's not being argumentative, it's just having a conversation.

You're not the first person that seems to feel differently about whether or not it's impolite to respond in this way. It just always surprises me when I hit this particlar difference in communication preferences.
> Yup, that's exactly what I'm saying there is something wrong with data model.

We are an Open Source project and know we can do better on the indexing speed. We already did much work on that subject. We enabled the auto-batching feature, which significantly improved the time to index documents.

Are you sending all your documents in one go, or are you waiting for the tasks to be indexed to send the next batch?

> I also noticed it's only using a single thread.

Unfortunately, one pass of the indexing process is currently single-threaded. We can do better, and we are aware of that. Software development takes time.

> Out of curiosity what dataset size you guys are testing on?

We are testing on a broad list of datasets, going from 200k movie datasets to 142 million song datasets.

> Other learning is, not every software written in Rust is fast :-)

It depends on what you want to be fast. Software programming is a matter of trade-offs, and we have excellent search speed results.

Yep, that's definitely the rub. And to be sure, you're right that that verb doesn't necessarily imply a sail is involved. However, in fairness, the original article talks about how neanderthals "went sailing", which isn't typically what people say when they go rafting or rowing. At any rate, it's a pretty ambiguous word to use when there are less suggestive ones out there!
Interesting to see silience downvote. At least you should try to defense or make some counter arguments to show that the history academia under the name of humanities is aware of geological history and climate history and people all eager to study science for their career as a historian.
During the pandemic, I built a device that records "brain waves". Not with the fidelity that would be needed to be a useful medical instrument -- let alone read minds -- but the fact that I, a fairly average geek, can do so using my own equipment and for less than $100 seems meaningful.

The device itself is very small, battery-powered (for safety) and requires that you attach electrodes to your scalp.

you have to install it from a repository before running it. much like a normal package on Linux. to me it makes sense. you can update all your packages at once this way
Maybe. And maybe you can work around that.

It's a judgement call.

Trying to optimize across a bunch of different dimple/bump patterns is a great use case for CFD. However, you'd want to validate a CFD model like that against real world test data (either by running your own tests or by finding test data in the literature).

To be clear, I think adding vortex generators to boat propellers is a great idea. But to me the starting place would be a building physical propeller with vortex generators (even if they aren't the perfect vortex generators) and seeing if it has a noticeable impact on boat performance. That would justify the difficulty/time required to build a CFD model which you could use to optimize the design. (I'm saying this given that you don't have experience in CFD and it would be a large outlay of your own time to learn how to use it.)
Why not?

Could have been Dahmer's philosophy.
"...designs created for adults may not be appropriate for children."

Seems right, seeing as the designs created for adults aren't good for adults either.
"When all 14 studies were pooled, no statistically significant results emerged. However, when the studies were divided according to whether vitamin D3 was taken daily in a low dose* or in higher doses administered at longer intervals*, a large difference was seen."

This sounds fishy. Sounds like their primary result was nothing, and then they looked for something else. Would require some checking if they had a preregistration, if this was registered as a secondary resuld and if they had done a proper statistica analysis of multiple outocmes.
Speak of the devil... I just checked my messages and saw this from my wife an hour ago: "ACC north ridge has an armed person on campus. Don’t go out"

I checked the news just now and found this out: "AUSTIN (KXAN) — A shelter-in-place order was lifted for the Austin Community College Northridge Campus.

The campus issued the order at 8:50 a.m. amid reports of a possible armed person nearby. Police investigated the reports and issued an all-clear.

The shelter-in-place was lifted at 10:20 a.m., and the campus returned to normal operations."

So literally by just spending my time being nerd sniped on the internet and tweaking a Dockerfile I missed the entirety of this nothingness.

Thanks for this. It's absolutely infuriated me and I had basically written that post as a blog/article in my head but figured here was a pretty high visibility spot to share my rant.

Also surprises me no one hits Google for their environmental hypocrisy when we're talking about purely induced e-waste here. The fact that the Nest Detects and Nest Guards are being made useless is so galling to me. Replacing them with an objectively worse option is the Google piss on the shit sundae.

How would it collect any location data in airplane mode: WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, and related, should all be turned off. NFC too I presume. I doubt readings from vibration (step counting), barometer, compass, if your device takes such readings, are going to be useful enough on their own to provide a good location fix.

Maybe if you take a photo of something recognisable they could log your location at that point if the photo is automatically tagged when you connect later. Though even if that is the case, I expect the OP wasn't taking pictures of any landmarks during a journey to/from the abortion clinic.

There's a number of interesting video games which only had limited rights to the soundtrack they used, and thus went out of print.

I like the format in that sense, but you (& Evans) and I must have very different.. I don't know, monitors/browsers/settings (but I'm not knowingly doing anything that weird, 100% zoom in Firefox on a landscape 2560x1440 display) - it's unreadably narrow to me, not even just stylistically (I don't like there being so much more dead/negative space than content) but the images are illegibly small. The wrapping's not as nice, but it's overall much better (to me) without the `max-width: 45em`. (The video at the top actually fits then too.)
This is possible, yes, and is why I suggest that turning your phone off is preferable to using airplane mode.

Best of all is, of course, leaving your phone at home. But that seems to be well beyond most people's abilities these days.
My understanding of GM is that they outsource almost everything. Last time I hired an embedded software engineer from them, the guy felt he was in a very tiny niche within the company and it was a fluke his group still existed to write code.

Infotainment systems may be different, but suppliers were doing most of the code several years back (I hired one of those guys too). With the desire to bring SaaS to automotive I would expect GM to bring some software development in-house, but they are a management-heavy company.

This feels so weak and inappropriate. It's easy to say don't do X or don't do Y. But then what? What are they supposed to be doing instead?

God only knows how they'd feel if they instead watched the "news". Perma-war, climate change, constant political cluster fuckery, the latest fear-mongering narrative, stranger danger, etc., etc.

The APA should prescribe a mirror for every adult, and ask them to spend time thinking about the world we're creating for future generations (i.e., current adolescents).
Funnily enough, if you analyze these articles less from a "is AI crap?" or "AI is gonna take our jobs!" perspective, you get a higher level one. You'll find "AI is a hot topic and I can capitalize by stirring the pot and making click bait about it for profit!".

Many editorial execs don't really care if AI is or isn't crap, gonna take our jobs, or changes the world. They care they can write about it in a way that will draw your attention while filling ad slots on their site.
a fully integrated OS is a better experience, if done right. unfortunately, the trend here is towards monetization (enshittification?) of everything in the UX: monthly data plan, onstar, required GM login for any smart features to work, mandatory mobile app installation.
One reason I'm sympathetic to this view is how far behind pre-AI automation is. Whenever I work with small-businesses and governments (and bigco's too but in different ways) I am amazed by how much make work there actually is. Somebody is doing data entry, but considers it valuable because some fraction of that work is identifying accuracy issues early, or translating between systems and domains. Then somebody is applying basically rote business logic to make a decision and route things to somebody else to do work. All of that could be automated. As an industry we've been automating that kind of thing for 50+ years, but still there are mountains of inefficient processes that could be automated, that are basically just shuffling paper. But the overhead cost of hiring someone to analyze your processes and adopt it to some kind of system, the costs of maintaining that system, to costs of getting it wrong when the requirement didn't account for various edge-cases that weren't in the requirements because of the tacit knowledge embedded in employees, often makes the project not worth it or a failure.

If LLM capabilities just help provide better glue (or even just political/hype motivation) to enable easier integration/automation of basic white-collar workflows there could be significant disruption. There is a lot of low-hanging fruit out there ... every spreadsheet is a new potential SaaS business.
