Im grateful where I live now does not have GDPR, and i'm saying that as a consumer.

They want to get something like GDPR but more protective to customers.

Would not call GDPR a success - no country wants to really copy GDPR in its current form at all
I think that's the point, though: why didn't they stick? Was it a price/performance/power issue, which would point to ARM being somehow "better" on those dimensions, or was it something incidental, like production availability, or even just perhaps a lack of desire at Intel to aggressively pursue that market?
It's astonishing to me how many people wanted the heir to BeOS to look like Windows XP.

I would say calculus is about solving things exactly using infinitesimals and limits. There's also plenty of equations that can only be solved numerically.

What you're saying is in the practical real world we can never measure things exactly. That's true but that's not what I got from calculus. Irrational numbers come to mind (not calculus).

I come to almost the opposite conclusion as you. It is amazing that we can solve equations in spite of infinities.
Thats what would a typical brexit guy would say. You might have a point, but at least the companies here care for people

Another fun fact, you could use one of the Roman dodecahedrons mentioned in another of today's articles to encode or decode Golay codes by hand...
My current approach is document ideas first, group similar ideas and execute them at the same time. For example, throughout the years I've had four or fives ideas for games, I'm writing all of them down in Google keep, thinking of interface, mechanics, etc. This way when I feel productive I can push multiple projects at the same time, (all using the same stack). I can have a doc trail for when I want to come back for a project.

They work based on what someone is prepared to enforce and the laws of the country they try to enforce it in. Having it written and signed isn't some magic catch all.

I'm sure they can fire you but it seems to be "at will" employment in most of the US anyway.

In Ireland and Canada such a clause would likely fall under being "unreasonable" for low paid employees. Similar to how a "non-compete" is not worth the paper it's written on (excluding when direct financial compensation is paid. Eg gardening leave).
There's a lot of good heart here & I dig it.

But the web isn't just for documents & exploring content. Or the content is complex & interesting & rightfully semi dynamic.

I really worry & grow concerned when people impose their quasi-religious beliefs about what the web is for. There's absolutely real harm & bad, and much of it comes from the crazy institutional/industrial nature of software development and many of our current tools have degraded the humanness of the web. The harms are real.

But so many people for so many widely different/opposing reasons want us to abandon HTML, and it's so hard for me to imagine what open society is left with if we move all app development back to native stacks. The Towards A Modern Web Stack view is that app makers can just target the web as a dumb delivery target, with WebGPU & webusb HID instead of html & the html events. They are horseshoe views, that almost meet in agreeing that html shouldn't be for X or shouldn't be for Y.

Identifying problems & desire ables are great. But we seem to have a small but very vocal group that decides & loudly advocates for what we can't use the web for. So so many of these concerns seem implementation & company specific. And these ills- so many of them would best be remedied by getting better at html webdev, by finding different paths to app building, ideally that are more We Component based, that make the page more honest & truthful & manipulable & up front. If we just categorically try to make the web unable to have these problems, humanity will be even less well equipped, have less agency to fight the hydra of capitalist dominion where it arises elsewhere.
The headline is odd both because "ingesting" a few 100kb of text is a meaningless qualification as you say, and the great Gatsby is a particularly short book. Did they pick it on purpose because it's somehow near some length limit?

They are. Nobody in the AI research community expected that scaling up models several orders of magnitude would make them that good. Even the original selling point of the Transformer paper was "can be much bigger and faster than RNNs, even if not as good" - Of course everyone was wrong and it's all about the data and scale.

For one thing it would be a 'cross cutting concern' or 'dependency injection' which is the kind of thing programmers hate adding to their apps. Also how exactly would you envision 'you will see all the people' to work? Where will the list be shown, for how long?
I’ve worked in 6 companies over 20 years, across many teams. In none of them did devs have to commit to work in sprints. Sure, some did sprints but work rolling over was more a conversation point about priorities and scope of the work rather than a point on which to judge output.

Obviously, there are companies that do this but it’s not as universal as you’re portraying it.

Yeah if you prevent me from getting Alzheimers you can have all of my money. I literally do not care. I'll smile as I write the check.
Yeah, ARM's big advantage is that they are willing to make absolutely zero margin on chips, which allows them to play both ends of the spectrum. They can make Celeron-tier chips that don't take any power and practically given away for free and use that as evidence of ARM's superiority in things like the M1 and supercomputers.

Even as Intel is declining, it still makes way, way more money than ARM does. If Intel wanted to play in the lose-money business, it could make something to kick the pants off of ARM's chips. It just would rather not.

“Hey Marvin, delete all of my emails”

Why not just have a limited set of permissions for what commands can originate from a given email address?

The original email address can be included along with whatever commands were translated by the LLM. It seems easy enough to limit that to only a few simple commands like “create todo item”.

Think of it this way, what commands would you be fine to be run on your computer if they came from a given email address?

I think you are misremembering. Check out the Wikipedia article on Extreme Programming [1] - The book Extreme Programming Explained wasn't published until 1999. Kent Back didn't even start working on the idea until 1996.

In any case, I'm not arguing that the idea of "release early and release often" was complete unheard of, but I am arguing that it was definitely not the standard and I would say the idea had more detractors than adherents at that time. There was still very much a battle between "waterfall processes" and "agile processes" that was really just starting to get going in the late 90s.

You are just repeating the marketing spiel of battery car makers. Of course, it would be very convenient for them if the problems of the competition are insurmountable and the upside totally pointless. There’s enormous incentive for them to convince people of that.

The basic problem here is that fuel cells EVs literally are EVs. They work in incredibly similar ways. Any sort of fundamental analysis would lead you to the conclusion that if BEVs are possible, then so are FCEVs. Any differences are going to be minor, not substantial. Also, a lot of the criticisms are just pure FUD, like claiming hydrogen is more dangerous than lithium (both are very flammable materials). And finally, battery car makers really want you to think that every single car in the future will be a BEV, with not a single exception. That’s a pretty crazy claim, and people should recognize how ridiculous it sounds.
Data centres care about different things in CPUs. You also don’t see consumer intel CPUs (e.g. core i7, or even the high end gamer cpus / workstation xeons) in normal data centres, even though they run x86. You do see arm in data centres, cf graviton on aws, but these are cpus fds signed for data centres (lots of cores, lots of memory, etc).

The big difference is that consumer cpus care less about virtualisation, high core counts, or having lots of memory, and more about single core performance and potentially not getting hot in your lap.

Can give you some foresight: As a result of having no EU based AI companies, there will soon be a 'strategic' need to have European grown large AI companies, top down from the presidency or member states to large established companies like Orange, SAP. They'll get some Euro as part of the project and years after there will be nothing to show for it.

An old example of one: The homegrown Google search competitor, a newer one: The amazon web services competitor. Only graves remain.
I'll note that if you can deterministically calculate an EV, a Monte Carlo simulation isn't necessary. The fact that the EV of roulette is so easy to calculate defeats the purpose of this exercise.

Perhaps the MC can help you conceptualize volatility and distribution of results, but once you know that the EV is negative, there's no good (mathematical) reason to participate.
If I wanted to develop games on the C64 itself, I'd use White Lightning Forth--a great compromise between expressive power and running speed. Vision Basic, requiring a 256 KiB RAM expansion, just feels weird.

In any case, kudos to the author. It's a remarkable technical achievement. I'm just ambivalent about the gray area between developing on a stock C64 and using the plentiful FOSS available on my Linux laptop.

I'm saying we take a more medieval approach to wealth redistribution. When polite society fails and these animals take advantage of the system to such a degree that it strains until it begins to fall apart, it will probably be necessary to make an example of a lot of them, so that any others with such aspirations never forget that it could be their neck metaphorically (or, um, literally) on the chopping block next.

Hitler has his share of Jews saved from the Holocaust. For example, he befriended a Jew girl, Rosa Bernile Nienau among a few others and kept regular contact with her. So tell me, what "secret self" was Hitler hiding ?

Humanity is chock full of contradictory actions. This nonsense "secret self" theory doesn't even make sense for most of them.

>they wantonly contradict things they said moments earlier and wildly hallucinate things that never happened.

Brains do this in spades. Sense data you perceive is partly fabricated for the concious self. This is why you see a second tick by faster when you suddenly look at the clock. This is why it seems you see something when you shift your eyes quickly instead of the completely black you should be seeing.

Memories are always part-fabrications too. Only what the brain perceives as "key" is stored, making up the rest.
Every time you recall a memory, the brain rewrites part of it, often introducing more fabrications. It's extremely easy to implant targeted false memories for this exact reason. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_in_the_mall_technique

And then there's the results of the split brain experiments too

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7305066/

So this idea that your brain doesn't "hallucinate" or make up details is very laughable. Your brain is quite literally constantly doing that and with the concious mind completely unaware.
The problem is that the attacker can try a gazillion times and only needs to succeed once.

As for music licenses, we are seeking out legal advice as how to best approach. I'm hopeful we can land on something as simple as Github licenses.
Of course, this simple function cannot be a replacement for proper analysis, but it seems that x86 code is not significantly denser.

Look at the demoscene for an example of dense x86 code, especially in the sub-1K categories. They routinely achieve code densities for x86 that no compilers I know of can get close to, and AFAIK I have not seen the same happen with ARM, nor MIPS or any other well-known RISC.

3-address instructions improve code density only in situations where both source operands are needed later.
It's much worse actually because its extremely hard to even figure out if you have a security issue because it involves NLP.
