Make a joke about it in the presentation. This talk was downgraded to get less visibility. So I’ve renamed the talk to “What Rust leadership doesn’t want you to know”.

I agree that it’s bad planning. And in particular, the reasons of “discomfort” are really terrible. However, it’s a very small hill to die on. Like, a mound.
If your threat model involves hiding your activity from a state actor, you need to worry about warrants as much as you do malware. From that perspective the entire operating system is working against you, since your adversary can simply subpoena Apple or Google for your cloud storage and access logs, which will reveal as much compromising data on you as even the best malware.

I’m not a care provider, but I’ve worked in healthcare for a long time. The real answer is: there is no consensus among doctors about this. Opinions vary widely. The article alludes to this. One thing I do know: tests are not the reliable gold standard they’re believed to be, and even when ‘accurate’, interpretations of results vary and evolve over time.
It is there already? https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/youtube-dislike-bu...

Not sure how long it's been there, but it's been approved by someone, you think they'd remove it after that?

Edit: looking at the reviews of the extension, it has reviews from a year ago (until I stop going backwards) so seems you're wrong
This is wrong and directly contradicted, unambiguously by the linked paper.

"For the purposes of defining the halting problem H, one should specify whether it
officially counts as halting or not if the head should happen to fall off the left edge of the tape. Although the truth of the main theorem will not depend on these details, provided we adopt a uniform answer, let us be definite and regard such computations as having not officially halted, as the halt state was not reached."
Thanks, that's a perfect explanation

How to increase presence and connection in texting (NPM package)
Hey there, everyone! I've got something exciting to share with you all—Live Typing, the ultimate open-source package that brings your web and messaging platforms to life with four incredible typing indicators!

With Live Typing, we've taken inspiration from the cutting-edge Media Richness Theory (MRT) to create two typing interfaces that you'll love: 'no-indicator' (no cues when someone's typing) and 'is-typing' (those three familiar dots that appear when someone's typing). But that's not all! We've also introduced two brand-new indicators for message transparency: 'masked-typing' (typing is concealed and displayed as # characters until sent) and 'live-typing' (typed keys are displayed in real-time).

What makes Live Typing even better? It's super easy to integrate, and you can customize it to create truly engaging communication experiences. Whether it's textboxes, entry fields, or any other input or text area elements, our package has got you covered!

Ready to dive in? Discover Live Typing on npm at https://www.npmjs.com/package/live-typing or explore the exciting possibilities on GitHub at https://github.com/brownhci/live-typing.

Feel free to unleash your creativity by using this package in your own projects, contribute to the repository, and spread the word to others who would benefit from it! We'd love to hear your valuable feedback and suggestions too—so don't hesitate to share them with us.

Get ready to revolutionize the way you communicate online with Live Typing—download it now and let the conversations come to life!
It is true that some models define halting that way, but in this paper they explicitly do not.
Reading this it seems their method of doing this is different than I expected, but maybe more disturbing:

"In the side-by-side above, I hope you can appreciate that Samsung is leveraging an AI model to put craters and other details on places which were just a blurry mess."

Can they filter out words automatically? Like I know that tons of people seemingly love to be moderators (for free) so maybe some channels just have enough mods to delete stuff very fast, but sometimes the whole comment section is just too clean. Do YouTube channels have more advanced moderator tools now?

The funny thing is that I started to get that impression on videos of Moroccan politics of all things. Not some western culture war topic haha.
The paper makes explicit how this is dealt with:

> For the purposes of defining the halting problem H, one should specify whether it officially counts as halting or not if the head should happen to fall off the left edge of the tape. Although the truth of the main theorem will not depend on these details, provided we adopt a uniform answer, let us be definite and regard such computations as having not officially halted, as the halt state was not reached.
I had the misfortune of coming across a bunch of tweets lamenting how "inferior" that translation is supposed to be — unfortunately, it seems to invariably come from people who can't read Ancient Greek, don't understand poetry, and don't even know what constraints Wilson adopted for her translation.

As a (once) professional translator with some familiarity with the language, I'd like to reassure potential readers that it's a fine translation with a unique parti pris. It's in spirit probably closer to the original than some translations that may be more canonical, e.g. Pope's, but that have been criticized just as harshly (or more) in the past.
this whole "woke" mentality is going out of hand too fast...

I mean, someone bullying some veterans/old men because they're "woke and feminist" isn't going to earn any sympathy from me.

nowadays... "woke" just means "I'm better than you (so I can/will do things that are otherwise unacceptable to you)"

...I think we chose the wrong word. Rather than "woke", it should have been "NO BULLYING" -- which includes all things the real "woke" people tried to do, and forbids all things the wrong "woke" people are trying to do
Yeah, but especially on YouTube, you tell YouTube that you didn't like the opinion or the content, so that the AI only serves you the same things on a loop.

And not only to you, but you also to the creator, who might be doing something great,
As well as to everyone, as you burry the video if it's too downvoted.

If you don't like something, just move on.
Or reply to it.

Because if you just downvote without commenting, the creator of a video doesn't know if it's low quality, or if there are just haters out there.
Good point.

So many great exec environments already for WASM. Is there already something available for Unity? Maybe even with a source language and compiler built in?

My focus currently is on creating code inside a running app (by the user) with references to selected Unity objects and their methods. While WebXR is great for this, the first (and sometimes only) SDK implementations for certain devices are usually in Unity.

WASM probably ist great for hotloading but would need a more complex toolset available at runtime to edit and create. Interactivity and incremental code creation would also be better in a scripting envirnment.
The standard answer to this is that there's too many variants.

I think it should be a thing anyway. If Blink, Webkit and Firefox have compatible implementations there can be some sort of de facto standard and it will be fine for a number of actually useful things, even if it's not perfectly defined to pocket protector standards.
Insurance fraud is just high in Florida in general. The same can be seen in auto and health.
As the author admits at the end, this is rather misleading. In normal usage, "overfit" is by definition a bad thing (it wouldn't be "over" if it was good). And the argument given does nothing to show that Bayesian inference is doing anything bad.

To take a trivial example, suppose you have a uniform(0,1) prior for the probability of a coin landing heads. Integrating over this gives a probability for heads of 1/2. You flip the coin once, and it lands heads. If you integrate over the posterior given this observation, you'll find that the probability of the value in the observation, which is heads, is now 2/3, greater than it was under the prior.

And that's OVERFITTING, according to the definition in the blog post.

Not according to any sensible definition, however.
It's called an invitation, just in case anyone who has more info, or the owner, wanted to reach out. If you assumed, apropos of nothing, that's a comment on HN were my only actions on the matter, well, maybe don't do that.

The meat of the paper is this short

> Proof of the Main Theorem Using the standard model

> let B be the set of programs that on input 0 either halt before repeating a state or fall off the tape before repeating a state. Clearly, B is polynomial time decidable, since we need only run a program p for at most n steps, where n is the number of states in p, to determine whether or not it is in B. It is equally clear that the halting problem is polynomial time decidable for programs p in B, since again we need only simulate p for n steps to know whether it halted or fell off. What remains is to prove that this behavior occurs with asymptotic probability one.

The proof also makes use of this

> Lemma 2.5 (Polya [2], see also, e.g., [1])

> In the random walk with equal likelihood
of moving left or right on a semi-infinite tape, beginning on the left-most cell, the
probability of eventually falling off the left edge is 1.

This suggests that the result crucially depends on having a one-sided infinite tape rather than the two-sided infinite tape that's used in the Turing Machine busy beaver.

It would be interesting to determine whether the result also holds for that other computational model, i.e. what about the set of lambda calculus terms with or without a normal form?
OK, I'll ask -- can you give some specific examples of
wiped channels? What is an example of an NGO promoting one narrative and what are the other narratives being suppressed? What are countries this is happening in?

I'm genuinely interested in the specifics here. I always want to be knowledgeable about different narratives.

Because my impression was that YouTube will serve you up recommendations on any topic you watch, because its goal is to serve ads, not to further a neoliberal narrative over others. But if YouTube is hiding certain narratives, I definitely want to be aware, to understand what kinds of categories they fall into. Can you share what you've observed?

Edit: best I can tell (looking through comment history) is that the commenter is upset specifically with YouTube banning content and channels that "denies or trivializes" Russia's invasion of Ukraine:

> YouTube has also been able to operate in Russia despite cracking down on pro-Kremlin content that has broken guidelines including its major violent events policy, which prohibits denying or trivialising the invasion. Since the conflict began in February, YouTube has taken down channels including that of the pro-Kremlin journalist Vladimir Solovyov. Channels associated with Russia’s Ministries of Defence and Foreign Affairs have also been temporarily suspended from uploading videos in recent months for describing the war as a “liberation mission”. YouTube’s chief product officer, Neal Mohan, said: “We have a major violent events policy and that applies to things like denial of major violent events: everything from the Holocaust to Sandy Hook. And of course, what’s happening in Ukraine is a major violent event. And so we’ve used that policy to take unprecedented action.” [1]

Yeah, this language is just such hyperbole. Cruelty is pulling someones finger nails out with vice grips. What Rust did is rude, not cruel.
The YouTube dislike button existed long before modern Reddit culture (lol) did. If anything, the Reddit vote system is quite different since it does not really show the absolute number of up and down votes, and they are even slowly moving towards phasing out the % of up/down votes display counter on posts. It never was available for comments in the first place.

Plus, dislike also boosted engagement and could be good for your video, so again very far from the Reddit karma system.
Large enterprise codebases will almost always have some security vulnerabilities in them but are still considered trusted code. Caddy is a fine alternative for ingress to such applications if you ask me, maybe a little on the immature side, but it's certainly getting there. An admin might absolutely pick Caddy for ingress in order to keep config simple, writing a Caddyfile, and ending up with the aforementioned admin endpoint enabled by mistake.
Similarly, as the number of particles in a system increases, the less you have to worry about Heisenberg uncertainty bounds on your momentum/position measurements.

It’s a misreading of the halting problem to think of it as a ‘barrier’ of some sort. What it really means is that there are some computer programs where the only way to find out what they will do is to actually run them. There’s not a ‘better trick’ you can pull to get the answer. This is kind of intuitive, since we know there are problems we run into where the easiest way we can think of to solve them is to write a program and run it. The halting problem tells us that it’s plausible that that instinct is right - that for some programs, you really can’t do some other analysis of the program that tells you what it’s going to do. You have to just run it.

Like: take a random complex number with magnitude < 2. Keep squaring it and adding the original number. Will you ever get a number with magnitude > 2?

For some numbers you can take a shortcut and say yes or no. But for others the only way to find out is to keep doing it.
Really? No one in cities can sleep properly - and the headaches.
+1 on Ken Shiriff’s blog, and his work with @curiousmarc on YouTube. Those gentlemen are national treasures whose work on restoring, documenting, and appreciating vintage computing and Apollo-era technology have been second to none in their breadth and depth.

I also personally really value their work—for anyone with intermediate to advanced knowledge of electronics engineering and computers, they are an invaluable source of educational entertainment as traditional mainstream media simply doesn’t cater to such niche audiences.
somebody should take youtube private and get rid of all the shit videos
If we have the technological capability of giving animals enhanced cognitive capabilities—and we do not give it to them—that is an interesting moral choice. Worth a thought.
Agreed.

I don't see why HN even needs downvoting when the comment slips down in relation to upvoted comments?

Downvotes unfairly weight opinions of those who are intolerant as people with higher tolerance will less likely or never use downvoting.

Digg at least made downvoting fun and not so serious.
I think your argument is disingenuously reductive but I'll bite: yeah. Life over limb is not a hard argument. Thankfully nobody is going around chopping off fingers. Would you donate blood to save lives? Or reduce a company's profit a bit to have less environmental impact through regulations?

I presume you benefit from living in a society. There are trade offs and costs to this benefit. Even if you pulled yourself up by your bootstraps, have a business, self made man whatever you benefit regardless of your feelings on others and their entitlements from the infrastructure. It gives you access to whatever it is that you make you living doing.

You are welcome to go live on the trap line and ignore all this and thus abstain but please, please be consistent and don't show up to clog a hospital bed when you get sick from the consequences of you actions.

Genuine question - what is the lesson that you think should have been learned? I infer some (justifiable) dissatisfaction in your comment directed at the Pi Foundation's choice to target B2B - but, if that trend reverses and Pi boards become available to individual consumers again, do you believe there's a reason that consumers should still avoid them? Explicitly, I don't think that "The Pi Foundation might make consumer-harming business decisions again in the future" is a good reason, because a hobbyist who already owns a board is in no way impacted by their future availability (unlike, say, a company which chooses to rely on them, and would have migration costs if they needed a scale that was unavailable).
The comments are plausible sounding on the surface but obviously ridiculous if you know a bit about the subject.

I didn’t know that they are exclusively right-wing oriented, but will keep an eye out.
There’s a problem from looking at it from only a wattage perspective since whether the EMFs are pulse or not is also important.

Also, the effect on any individual might be related to several variables, including genetics, current load of oxidative stress, or other exogenous factors.

What they are trying to do is find people who truly have electromagnetic hypersensitivity syndrome and look at them for biological markers. They’re not solely interested in the power because they know there are variables that make people more sensitive than other people.

This was found true in leukemia studies and overhead powerlines in the 90s. They found people with certain genetics that were more susceptible to leukemia from those low frequency EMFs.
Is there any evidence of actual harm correlated with high SAR values?
> That's just shifting the goalposts. Someone gets LLMs to do something impressive? "Ooh, LLMs are intelligent!". Someone shows LLMs falling flat on their face?

It's still intelligent! It may have weird failure modes that are different to typical human failure modes, but intelligence isn't restricted to entities that never get anything wrong.
I’d imagine it works a fair bit like plug and charge.

The adapter (directly or indirectly) reports the car serial number and then Tesla would just say “No”.

It’s also possible that the adapter doesn’t do much besides the physical, and a software update in the Ford handles the rest. At which point it would be 100% useless to non-Ford vehicles.
a) All functions from computable reals to computable reals are continuous. This makes sense, because an arbitrarily small input difference leading to an arbitrarily large output difference is not a good basis for computation. You can still have discontinuities for discrete computable maps.

b) Neither is equality computable for the reals. Nothing is lost here.

c) Differentiation is computable for the functions of computable reals if you have a computable rate of convergence.
Ya I regularly wipe my cookies and start over with YouTube and the politically charged fresh slate recommendations are definitely not Neo-liberal.
Fully agree.

Because, there are a lot of very real very imminent problems with AI, and none of them requires SciFi to be real.

Massive automated disinformation campaigns. Economic upheavals. Missing standards for models in mission critical applications. Copyright concerns. Problems for educational institutions. Gatekeeping mechanisms in industries.

Just to name a few. And these are not "maybe someday" problems, these exist right now, and need solving, asap. Drawing the publics attention away to doomsday scenarios out of a Hollywood movie, doesn't help any efforts in mitigating these imminent problems.

Classic country music is alive and well, in Ireland of all places. There is a talent show called Glór Tíre, it's in the Irish language but many of the songs are in English, and covers of classic American tunes. There is a thriving scene with young artists who are influenced by Irish folk music and classic Country & Western as well.

> They've also written an article about reflection in Rust - a purely technical thing that is already pretty widely disliked conceptually.

Maybe that really is the problem. Too much reflection leads to clever, but hard to debug hacks. Look what happened with C++ templates and, further back, LISP macros.
That way lies code that's unusually hard to read and maintain. Rust probably shouldn't go that way.

Do you want to have a keynote address on an idea of that type? It's more of a subject for a proposal talk.
Wish they covered ”Nitro Zeus” too!
I find it curious that you have to take out of context statements to paint this as “both sides”. The Democratic Party position on vaccines didn’t change. There was a lack of trust in Trump not vaccines or science. This would be much more obvious if you’d use an actual quote instead of paraphrasing to obfuscate the meaning.

"Well, I think that's going to be an issue for all of us. I will say that I would not trust Donald Trump. And it would have to be a credible source of information that talks about the efficacy and the reliability of whatever he's talking about. I will not take his word for it. He wants us to inject bleach. I — no, I will not take his word."

"If the public health professionals, if Dr. Fauci, if the doctors tell us that we should take it, I’ll be the first in line to take it. Absolutely. But if Donald Trump tells us that we should take it, I’m not taking it."
I’ve seen tons of PG&E bashing for the fires on this very forum, not to mention in the news media. Just because you haven’t witnessed it don’t assume it isn’t happening. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
> the last of the "five good emperors"

This is less of a compliment than it may sound like, because it is his own fault that he was the last.

The previous good emperors each selected their own equally good successors (by adopting them, so that they technically became their "heirs"). Marcus ignored this tradition and left the empire to his crazy biological son, who immediately ruined it.
