Seems like Big Tech hasn't been following the other Big $INDUSTRY playbook fully yet - you gotta buy your own competing medical studies. Newbie mistake.

I am sure they'll learn, they figured out how important buying politicians was in the mid 2000s.
I don't know much about the inner workings of Microsoft, but I could also imagine than an acquisition from that long ago just isn't known to those in the Github side of the house. Seems pretty typical for a large company.
Study finds elevated levels of toxic metals in some juices and soft drinks
Or hyper processed foods, and city planning that encourages sedentarism. Yes, congratulations to Kraft and Ford on their victory, now 38% of the adult population of the US has diabetes.
I hope they sterilized all the equipment before lowering it into the hole... Surely?
Why is it that in every other development, these days, one reads a quote like "researchers think this would be used for <insert thing that benefits humanity, but will remain underdeveloped because nobody wants to invest enough money in it> but they warn that it could also be used for <insert very negative possible use, in which many with the resources and power will gladly invest if given the possibility and lack of regulation or control of any type>" and yet, they continue developing it because it might "benefit humanity"? Where the hell are you going like this?!
It seems similar to 15ish years ago in some ways. I remember my parents insisting instant messaging would result in us disclosing all our personal information to online predators and being kidnapped, so while most other kids at school were building friendships outside over AIM, we were excluded. Other parents would admirably fawn over how effectively we were restricted from all electronic socialization, while us kids were completely exhausted by the experience and eventually just learned to circumvent NetNanny.

Telling kids today to stay completely off their phones seems even more futile. There's commenters mystified that kids "can't live without their phones"...Well, what do they learn when they are surrounded by adults who literally depend on their phones to live? How many of us are making plans with our own friends without one?
Dose-response relationships of LSD-induced subjective experiences in humans
Worth pointing out, the image in the article is actually of the 'Great Blue Hole' off the coast of Belize, which is about twice the diameter but half the depth[1] of the one in the paper.

Also quite the opposite of 'recently discovered'; it has been one of the best known diving spots in the world for over 50 years, and one of the very few ocean floor features that I can recognize by eye...

Now you have a test that passes its test but the latter checks for something unrelated...
Traditional Knowledge Matters
Do you utilize your phone to make plans and remain socially connected with your own friends? Or do you conduct your life completely over landline and computer e-mail?

I would assume that in 2023, phones are a key tool for most adults' satisfied lives too.
Regarding aftertouch, it does support it in a way (and it's shown in the video). For many synths, after you press a key on the on-screen keyboard, if you hold it and move your finger up towards the back end of the key, it gets translated into aftertouch. GarageBand on iPad has supported this as long as I've been using it (a few years). I don't know if every synth supports it, but there are definitely some who do.

Sorry, clarifying questions: Are you saying Texas has more criminals? And would that apply to red states in general, as they have the most mass shootings?
Of note, the current interpretation of gun rights (the individual right to own) is a relatively new construct largely created by the gun lobby (roughly 1977, when there was an internal rebellion in NRA leadership) and a conservative court (Heller, 2008).

And FWIW, I'm in the camp that we can't define "crazy" adequately. So, I'm all for limiting access to all semi-automatic firearms. Regulate them all similarly to automatics and other "NFA" weapons.
> The outer ring is about 240 astronomical units in diameter.

That is huge. Just reference for those who don't feel "astronomical units": One astronomical unit (AU) is (roughly) the Earth-Sun distance.

Distances to compare with: Pluto is ~39 AU away from the sun. Voyager 1, the furthest probe of humanity right now, is ~160 AU away from the sun.

So in other words: that is mind-bogglingly large.

(If you want to read more about astronomical units: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astronomical_unit )
What is not accurate? They are still not storing any material internally, even if the patterns they have learned can cause them to output copyrighted material verbatim. People need to break out of the mental model that an LLM is just a bunch of pointers fetching data from an internal data store.
From the outside, Microsoft seems to have a complete undivided focus on the customer. It may be on helping, or it may be of fucking the customer, but it's on the customer.

That makes it impossible to ship their organogram.

Apple seems to have escaped it mostly by centralizing power, but I don't think they are currently keeping it.
You are completely missing the multidimensional aspect of this. I really didn't want to anger you, and that's why I chose to write my comment carefully. Apparently not careful enough. But imagine this dismissal, but in every part of your life. Your dad got misdiagnosed for lupus? They don't even believe that we have can a headache. Just chill man and accept that some people can have more problems than you and some communities have more problems than straight white males. If the only thing that will stop you from dismissing this is hard core data, i think you should recalibrate your empathy circuits.
I enjoy this look back. What a different time it was. I posted this as well last year.
An engineer’s guide to mobile biometrics: event- vs. result-based
Hey hn, this is Chris (DevRel) here at Stytch. This is part two[1] of our three part biometrics series. As we were building out our native mobile biometrics product, we noticed that there weren't a lot of generalized resources for developers building biometrics for themselves, so we wanted to create some for the community.

Myself and some of our mobile engineers are here if you have any questions or feedback!

[1] Part one can be found here https://stytch.com/blog/biometrics-step-by-step/
For "«powerful»" we could assume that the reference is to identifying the relevant patterns output by the fMRI, while the ANN transformers seem to be more related to the translation into «reconstruct[ed] continuous language from [the] cortical semantic representations»¹. I.e. they seem to be useful to give the interpretation a "form", a way to express it. What you read must be matched with something - transformers are "good at language".

Well, there was Clifford Stoll's "Silicon Snake Oil" from 1995 in which Stoll (who had been using computers and the Net for quite some time and had famously caught a hacker spy as described in his "The Cuckoo's Egg"), although he was mostly claiming that the early consumer Internet was overhyped. He was right and wrong. Yes, there was the dot-com crash of 2000, so it was somewhat overhyped, but Stoll also claimed that nobody would want to shop online when they could just go to a store, which clearly wasn't the case.

Tbh the newspeak version of this is terrible. If someone immediately quits their job (presumably without transition so you can hire someone else) you have failed as a leader
Is it really a valid test to just drive there and sit in the parking lot? They mention sitting there for 15 minutes at two locations, but don't discuss the rest. So perhaps they actually went into the building other times. It is not clear to me.

If you are just sitting in a shared parking lot with other business around how are they supposed to label the location? If it gets labeled as probably being the coffee shop, then its not a visit to a sensitive location which needs to get deleted.

Scenario: You navigate to a sensitive location. Close out Google Maps and do whatever. Now they forget where you navigated to, because it is sensitive. Some time later, you open Google Maps and navigate home. It now has an unknown location as your starting point, and guesses somewhere close. So it picks up the coffee shop as potential. And uses that as the starting point for the new trip. How could they also remove that coffee shop? That would require retaining the fact that you were at a sensitive location there.

Also note that the lack of data around sensitive locations in your history may be an indicator for those looking for it. If you had gone to the coffee shop it would show up as the coffee shop, but instead it shows up as no data. I would much rather it have a nearby plausible location than a total gap in the data.

And I think the most important part of it is they don't have any history of anyone going to that specific location. So a subpoena asking for everyone who went to that location returns 0 results. Getting a subpoena for everyone who went to the neighborhood or the coffee shop, should be harder, and even if they get it its not likely to provide any useful info.
one underdiscussed aspect of America's car oriented transportation system is that car accidents are a major reason that American life expectancy lags behind other developed countries[0] (along with gun violence). I have family that drive on highways in Texas daily and it's probably the most dangerous thing they do, but they have no choice. The cities are built to force you into owning a car and risking your life to accomplish basic tasks.

I get that the prefix entered our lexicon from german, but frankly you don't have enough information to say that there is no relation. The city of Ur is 4000 years older than Old High German, and Ur has been used as a metaphor for the origin of things for thousands of years, even ancient Greece. You can't definitively say that the idea of Ur as an origin of civilization had no influence on german.
I'm 95% sure that the author (who is on HN[1]) is at least referring to the article "There's No Such Thing As A Tree" in his line "There is no such thing as a tree." - regardless of the fact that the article as a whole isn't about trees made of wood.

It's possible that he's additionally making a double entendre about abstract tree structures.

In what sense?

You kind of failed to say it as it is.
Again, it doesn't suggest anything about foreign influence for a person to disagree with you. Telling people not to worry about (increasing) spectacular violence because they're more likely to die in a car accident reads as if you're changing the subject because you don't want to talk about it.
true ;) on it
Incorrect. They absolutely do and I've seen it with my own eyes.
Post cloud boom, the expectation is cloud syncing, not the exception.
All of expiry, eviction, and flushing counts as "invalidation" in the context of "the hard problems of computer science".
I think of current AI as the worlds best bullshitter.

It often sounds good enough compared to what most high school students can write in essays. As the #1 criteria for an essay is length, students gets trained in adding bullshit, as 5 pages of bullshits is acceptable but 1 page of concise text is a fail.

A lot of people don't feel they have enough control over their live, especially if a single accident (or losing your job) can make you homeless.

So I think the underlying emotion is fear. In in dogs fear often leads to attacks, so most dogs that bites are fearful dogs, not aggressive ones.
Undermine how?
So I guess this is a standalone device tethered to your phone? Interesting idea. Not sure I want to add a little pocket to all my shirts. Seems more likely that these features are built into phones or even just an app you can download.

I've been taking a daily vitamin D supplement since COVID-19 broke out in the USA. I believe there's a lot of evidence that many people are deficient in vitamin D. I don't know if supplements are the best way to attack that but it's one of the easiest ways. Getting daily sun exposure isn't always convenient and not really possible for a good chunk of the year since we have real winter here.
The EHT has used machine learning techniques, but those were not required to get an image that shows the shadow of the black hole. Just using the "clean" algorithm for deconvolution yielded an image showing the shadow, and that algorithm has been in use for radio interferometry for over 40 years, and has nothing whatsoever to do with machine learning.
Envy. You're just unlucky, huh?
"Sometimes a tiny bit of friction makes a big difference."

If it is a tiny bit of friction, then SCOTUS would likely allow it. If not, it could be struck down. But what tiny bit of friction is being proposed that will have an impact on homicides?

It seems your argument is that reducing the number of guns will reduce shootings and that we can reduce them with "a tiny bit of friction". But the courts are generally holding that if the restrictions prevent qualified individuals from obtaining a gun, then it is not a tiny bit of friction, but an infringement on rights. It seems these are incompatible.
To bring it full-circle, you just reminded me of one of my favorite HN comments: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11447851
If we accept that a parking mandate is a taking, the 14th amendment does empower Congress to pass legislation to enforce the rights. But the property owners could have filed suit on their own, right? Parking minimums have been around for a long time; if there was legal uncertainty, I'd expect some court cases about it? Many property owners have resources to fight such a case.
Interesting.

Hard not to think about potential applications when it comes to legal proceedings and court evidence.
That's what's confusing me: 105,000 participants in a study should have resulted in thousands of cancer deaths, a 12% drop should be pretty noticeable even with 10% of the data.
Mind reading and thought crime are equal-opportunity problems.

Godwin's Law really needs to be updated to account for the gay persecution complex. Any state that corrupt would have a cheaper and easier time just tickling you until you confess.
So what exactly would this look like? I guess I don't see what's missing from currently available options (e.g. Linuxes, BSDs, etc. with all their ecosystems) that, if it were available, would change behavior at scale and would flip the situation around.
The brief Age of the Worker is over – employers have the upper hand again
The 2022 Chevy Silverado I rented died at 488 miles on the odometer. The roadside assistance mechanic said the transmission "lost data connection to the engine". Later, a tow truck had to drag it onto it's flatbed as the rear wheels were locked up.

Also, apparently the tailgate is electric now. And for some reason it stopped working when the transmission died. Also also, there is no way to turn the truck off? When it entered the error-state, the dash stayed on and the cabin motor stayed blowing, but the "Start" button wouldn't turn anything off.

I know I'm an odd case, my newest car is from 1997... but I am gobsmacked at just how terrible modern vehicles are. I know customers are dumb and are easily impressed by cheap gadgetry, but why did we have to throw the baby out with the bath water?

So when I hear that GM is going to build their own CarPlay or whatever I can't help but laugh. They can't even build a good fleet pickup truck.
PrecompileTools.jl has definitely not been adopted by the "vast majority of packages" and compilation latency is not a dead issue. There's been huge progress, and the rate of progress on this is much higher than before, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

This is probably the missing link for useful implanted brain-machine-interfaces too.

FWIW, the iPad is velocity sensitive. I haven't tried Logic Pro on it yet, but with Garage Band, it definitely plays louder if you hit it harder (for patches that support it). Some software synths in GB also have a pseudo-aftertouch where you slide your finger up after hitting the key to invoke aftertouch.

That said, I don't like playing on a screen. I'm a long-time piano and keyboard player so I just hook up an external instrument. But I was pleasantly surprised by what I could do just on the iPad with GarageBand.
So this is about creating SQL strings with SQL? Not interpolating SQL with ? placeholders in say Python.

It reminds me of the bash-completion project which is the default on Debian-based distros.

It tries to parse bash IN BASH. This is a very bad idea.

I would also argue that parsing bash in C is not a great idea either!
Just want to nitpick everyone. Spain, less Navarre and Portugal, would have existed as a state at that time, but probably not yet a nation, as I presume the people still saw themselves as Aragonese, etcetera, and not yet Spanish. They even spoke different dialects at the time.
Web Scraping on Autopilot with GPT-4
Hey folks,

As a lone entrepreneur, I recently ran into an issue that I'm sure some of you can relate to:

Scrolling through a ton of lengthy articles and videos (over 10 minutes) that are jam-packed with valuable insights.

Saving each document to a single location without bothering to sort them into categories or use any tags.

When the time comes to retrieve a specific document, I'm left scrambling to recall the app where I saved it or its title.

If I can't remember, then I'm out of luck. I can only search for articles, but with images and videos, I have to comb through numerous albums or browse my history.

After struggling to find a solution, I decided to build my own Telegram bookmarking bot. I chose Telegram because I use it daily to stay in touch with my colleagues and pals. Moreover, Telegram is secure, and I'm accustomed to storing all my essential information here.

Some unique features include:

The ability to save all typical file types, including PDFs, images, videos, web links... You can simply forward, type, or upload them to your bot.

The ability to retrieve information the way you think, in any language.

Summarizing key notes from any YouTube videos, articles, or blogs. This will assist you in saving time by filtering information before storing it.

Quickly asking any question about your files. It works with articles, YouTube videos, and PDFs (coming soon). For instance, suppose you're watching a 2-hour video course and can't recall the exact moment when they discussed the topic you need to revisit. In that case, you can ask the bot for the specific information, and it will provide you with the answer.

I made the bot completely free of charge. Just search on Telegram "searchcarootbot" and give it a try. I'm open to any feedback, so don't hesitate to DM me!
The viewport value for the meta element was never a part of HTML 5.

Apple first invented it for the iPhone 1, published it in 2007, and other manufacturers of mobile browser then copied it.

https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Ap...

At the time for iPhone 4 the viewport meta thingy was an old thing, but of course a lot of websites hadn’t updated in the previous four years.

The CSS Working Group has for some years specs in preparation which would make the viewport thingy official:
