If you're referring to the (likely) falsified research of Sylvain Lesné, my understanding is that researchers universally agree that it was not central to the beta-amyloid hypothesis, and therefore didn't change much. The story appears to have been widely mischaracterized in the press, even by Science, who broke the story.
> Humans don't breed when their own lives are precarious and it's rational and realistic to assume the lives of their kids will be even more so.

I do not think this is a generally true notion. There are so many people living in precarious circumstances in large parts of Africa, Asia and South America. But the highest population growth is right there.

Maybe there is some truth to the notion in developed countries.

Also no, no EU ISP blocks sites without specific orders from government bodies. In my country the government ban list is public, with explanations given for each site, and every ISP must enforce it.

Also, it's much more difficult to enforce light copyright infringements for personal use in other EU countries compared to how easy and often corporations do it in Germany willy-nilly. No other EU country fines you hundreds to thousands of Euros for downloading a mp3/mkv. That's just preposterous.
I am curious how you a German magistrate thought it has jurisdiction over what happens in other countries. This is mind boggling.
I've used the trackpads a ton and strongly disagree. It makes games like Civ VI, Magic Arena, etc. very playable on Steam Deck. They are EXTREMELY handy for older games not designed around a controller on PC like for example Morrowind. The UI there was always designed with a mouse in mind and having the trackpads act as a mouse is far superior to clunky analog stick movement. You can also use them as a "virtual numpad" type thing which is great for older FPS where weapon selection is dependent on number keys. They are insanely versatile and for any game that wasn't explicitly designed with an Xbox pad in mind amazing.

The touchscreen can go though.
It's very hard to believe a single thing he says when he lies so constantly and casually.
> The training is not modification and redistribution.

This is incorrect when you consider either the literal way that content licenses are written or the spirit in which they are written.

In the literal sense, unless you yourself are privy to cutting-edge research that has solved the problem of "how do you know that the model won't reproduce some of its training data verbatim or with small modifications", no, you cannot guarantee that there won't be redistribution.

In the spirit of the way that licenses are written - "redistribution and modification" is meant to control whether you can profit (not necessarily literally - "profit" here can mean in a reputational sense, or being able to build on the work of others before you) from someone else's work/content/effort - and training on the data of people who did definitely not explicitly consent to it, and have not indicated that they're ok with other people taking their work in general, is definitely against that spirit.

And, regardless of both of the above - if training is neither modification nor redistribution, then it's a new case that isn't considered by existing content licenses, so the default is "assume consent not given" - training should never be performed on data that isn't explicitly licensed for it or without the creator's consent. Consent is given, never assumed - a license that says "you're allowed to redistribute this content, unmodified" does not say anything about machine learning, and given that you're claiming that training doesn't amount to redistribution - the license simply doesn't say anything about training, and therefore you cannot claim that the author intended for it to be used that way.

The attitude raised above is that of entitlement - you feel like you are entitled to use (because training is definitely using) other peoples' work for your own gain without compensating them in any way, and certainly not on their terms.
Omg that is like a thesis on thesis production, instead. Wildly impressive, and great job with the actual screenshots for comparing output. Thanks.

No article about vintage AI is complete without mentioning the Dartmouth summer workshop of 1956, which is widely regarded as the event that kickstarted the entire field of AI research. Participants included people like John McCarthy, Marvin Minsky, Ray Solomonoff, Claude Shannon, and John Nash, among others. In retrospect, they might have slightly underestimated the nontriviality of the problems involved:

> An attempt will be made to find how to make machines use language, form abstractions and concepts, solve kinds of problems now reserved for humans, and improve themselves. We think that a significant advance can be made in one or more of these problems if a carefully selected group of scientists work on it together for a summer.

Yes, I'm an Orthodox Christian so bit more than half of the year is fast day. Fast day means that I eat vegan food moderately (with some exceptions, like fish allowed on some days) and also don't use oil when cooking. There are four longer lent periods around the year and each Wednesday and Friday are fast days. Although after some big feasts and before the Great Lent (which is before Eastern) there are weeks that are fast free.

At the beginning of Great Lent there are also three days that I try not to eat anything but usually it's not possible for me because of work, so I pick something small in the evening. Also during Great Lent I don't eat breakfast (to not break my fast ;)). Oh, and on Sunday if I attend Eucharist in the church I don't eat and drink anything before that.

Trying to follow these rules gives me a lot of joy and rhythm to my life. It makes me appreciate food, and also has made my diet simpler also in days that I'm not fasting. But the point isn't to restrict food but to be able to focus more on the spiritual struggles and tame your passions.

This looks kinda cool, but feels half-baked. The demo components on the main page don't work well in Safari - the color picker has troubles with detecting mouse coordinates, and the slider does not work at all.

Not sure what the "unstyled components" means - all the components on the demo page have some styles. What's the point of the unstyled UI library even?

We've been using Ant Design [https://ant.design] at a few FE applications at work and we really like it. It'd be cool to see an alternative for that with different styling, more components, or some other differentiator. Ant is hugely popular, so maybe a page with "Ark vs Ant", "Ark vs Bootstrap" comparison would be helpful.

This sounds positive. When China invades Taiwan and the US military destroys the TSMC fabs, high-end Arm manufacturing can be taken over by both Samsung and Intel. Still, there will be a years long massive chip crisis, until enough fabs have been built to meet demand.

If the people don't exist, they can't produce. You can make all the policy decisions you want, but the economy will stagnate if you don't have people working in fields or factories or wiring up houses. Sure, better education might make higher-value workers that produce more economic value. Providing better support for families will help people interested in having children potentially have more children and be economically productive while doing so. If your current citizens don't want to have children, then it doesn't matter.

Depending on the size of your site both GA or Matomo might be overkill. Both of them are huge systems. If you’re just running your private site both of them are mostly „too much“ and you’re never gonna use more than 20% of their features.

A lot of data scientists don't know SQL and don't understand why people use it. That said, there are cases where in memory workloads and certain manipulations are less encumbered by dataframes APIs. But in a lot of cases... They get abused by people who really do need to push themselves a little bit to learn something new.

This does not compute, saying the person who poses the problem is credited for the solution is not how things work. Well, outside of politics that is.

I still write plugins like this for source engine games using sourcemod/sourcepawn (the successors to amx and pawn respectively) occasionally, and it's still fun. Much harder to get people to play your mods since the games aren't as popular as they once were, but there's something about the engine that makes it really satisfying to mess with and bend to your will despite it being a massive pile of spaghetti. Helps that the entire source code tree has been leaked multiple times before, too.

For that to explain the gap I think you would have to consider how many of those employees who get written up live with their families vs more detached living arrangements. With that consideration, it seems unlikely that change alone could make up 15% for the overall group.
As I wrote, I can no longer trust the alarm. I’m talking about a supported use case which broke, not a niche and unsupported situation.

This seems to be have been fixed in 16.4, but before that I would:

1. Pull down to show Spotlight search.

2. Type “alarm” and tap “Create Alarm”.

3. Set a time and tap “Done”.

The feedback message would tell me the alarm was set to a different time, with multiple hours of difference.

This is using only first-party features to do a basic task and even that didn’t work right. I could reproduce it reliably. Luckily the message was correctly showing the wrong time that was set and I double-checked it to notice.

All the other issues I mentioned still have open feedbacks about it. All but one are regressions, the other is a security flaw which has always been there.

It's a broken argument with some truth too it. IE you can run a SQL query put the result in a dataframe to dump it to an interchange format. But in the same breathe... If you learn to use SQL a great deal of workloads often used via dataframes APIs kind of disappear, and in doing so learning a new language to use a new dataframes API isn't really worth it.

Yes... which is less than the current annual increase of 3.4mm:

The West Anarctic Ice Sheet alone will cause ~3.3m rise when it collapses.

https://www.carbonbrief.org/guest-post-how-close-is-the-west...

Note, NOT melts; just when it breaks up and floats away, still frozen.

That one ice sheet, currently cracking, is over half resting on rock that is way below sea level. Some is 2000m under sea level. It doesn't need to melt, it just needs to break off and float away. That would cause a 3.5-5m *depending on ow much floated) increase in mean sea level, worldwide, in approximately 12 days.

That is over 1000x time the reduction caused by flooding the Qattara depression.

Or 0.1% -- or as I said, a fraction of a per cent.

If that's the case, your direction doesn't matter. You've got a task to complete. Your boss sets the direction and requirements. You might disagree with a 'new person's' implementation, but that's a discussion point. 'Direction' and 'implementation' are distinct. For a commercial project that you're tasked with, the direction is part of the task.

If you're setting the direction, you've likely the authority to set the direction, in which point it's not 'team' and more 'manage' or senior dev.
Would a decent status page be an actually intelligent use of blockchain? We could have a global network of computers responsible for determining a consensus on whether a service is truly and actually down or not. It could be captured in an independent ledger, and ideally used as a canonical determination for status pages, SLA disputes, etc.

Not on my right now, but it just had 200 successful missions in a row.

There is a link somewhere about statical methods of reliability and Falcon 9 is on top of that list. Even by just looking at simple % probability they are on top.

I don't have the link at hand but if I can find it later Ill add it.

I am not doing that. Not everything has to be perfect to consider something a success. That a ridiculous standard.

I think it is quite possible the the buyer didnt do sufficient homework. It is also quite possible that the seller had reasonable grounds to think that everything is in order but got side swiped by German bureocracy. It is also possible that the buyer wanted to take advantage of a simple mistake and started yelling "fraud!". Maybe he would have fared much better had he saught legal advice before entering such a large financial commitment, and saved himself the time and effort of going to court.
Pretty sure dataframes jl isn't the fastest dataframes library out there. Think it's Polars, which has bindings in Rust and python. If I remember correctly the runner up is data.table. Similarly SQL/SQLite can often beat all of these So switching to Julia for speed in this context may not even make sense anyways...

Hey HN,

At Shuttle we’ve teamed up with Stefan Baumgartner, the organizer of Rust Linz, to create a newsletter series that takes a slightly different approach towards learning Rust.

If you’ve ever felt stuck or overwhelmed on your journey to learn Rust, the Shuttle Launchpad newsletter might come in handy. Why? Because we focus on the latest toolsets in the Rust ecosystem, advocate the latest, greatest, most stable libraries and tools & best coding practices. On-top of that, we deliver educational content in bite-sized chunks so that, even if you are extremely busy, you still manage to get some learnings in. And as we all know with learning, consistency is key!

Each issue is going to be a segment of a course towards building real-world applications with the first set of issues being, for example, how to develop an e-commerce application that needs to do safe transactions with a payment provider.

Each application that you build will go from basics up to advanced concepts, covering items/examples such as:
- including image filters that we implement on our own
- streaming updates to the UI via web sockets
- handling login and 2FA
- parallel processing and async programming
- working with custom data formats
- .. and so on

P.S. We’ve also created a survey where you can submit what aspects of Rust programming are you most interested in learning about, and what specific real-world applications or use cases you would like our newsletter to explore, right here: https://btl1d1x5z23.typeform.com/to/K3icqyK8 (no e-mail collection, just 2 quick questions)

P.S. x2 the first issue is coming out in ~2 weeks
