I'm surprised that more isn't done to sell these. I'm a tech enthusiast with disposable income, but the last headset I tried was an old Oculus one about a decade ago. I could see the promise of the tech but need convincing that it's come far enough for me to buy one.

And yet... trying these out just doesn't seem to be a thing anywhere. I can walk into any tech store and see a non-working unit in a glass case, or if I'm lucky pick up a slightly sticky broken controller, but I can't try one out for 5 minutes to see if I like it.

I'd bet that Apple's headset will be announced with a store experience to go along with it. I'm sure it'll be by appointment only to begin with as they'll have many more people wanting to try it than who will want to buy, but I'm sure there will be a way to experience them before buying. The Apple Watch was effectively a new product category where people needed a new level of persuasion, and Apple had fitting appointments that were very well done, and Apple Stores have always been known for being primarily focused on using the products, even letting you try AirPods, so I can't imagine these will be stuck in a glass case.

It also has god awfull thermal management, even on power efficient Silent mode, the bottom gets hot fast.

The audio is god awfull (for a product in that price range), lot of static with most earphones, have to use models with high impedance.

I found the linux experience subpar on this device (the cpu was running even hotter than on windows last time I tried).

Edited: To update, I tried snap, but using
snap install --classic --beta zig is a security risk because it can change the system and is not sandboxed.
I'm gonna look into that and come back to you.

I think your preferred entertainment is still entertainment, it's just not the typical entertainment that many people partake in.

The google definition of entertainment: the action of providing or being provided with amusement or enjoyment.

So reading, museums, and whatever you do for enjoyment is still entertainment.

Seatbelt tensioners are life savers. They're a little explosive charge under the chair near the seatbelt attachment point that yanks hard on the belt to squeeze you against the chair while the car comes to a stop. They're super powerful and you don't want to mess with them unless you know exactly what you're doing (see also: airbags).

This is funny to me....

Back in the mid 1980s I started my gaming journey... I would sit and play games for hours and my 2400 baud modem helped me dominate in Populous, got me connected to BBSs to play games, got me on PCLink (the precursor to AOL), and got me grounded for a month for running up a $926 long distance phone bill for calling into BBSs in San Jose from Tahoe...

My dad yelled at me and told me "I was wasting my life sitting in front of the computer all day"

Years later after I made a pretty cool career in computers, including doing game testing at intel, designing datacenters for NAMCO and Lucas etc... my dad apologized for saying that to me...

So its funny that your kid is getting his cardio in VR! We are living in the future!

Hi, I'm a full-stack developer with experience in the JavaScript and Ruby ecosystems and AWS. I'm looking for opportunities and would be happy to speak with you if you think I'd be a good fit.
Thanks for the answer. I signed up and will check it once in a while ! Good luck.
you can participate in a close friendship and casual sex. You can have several of each.

The casual sex "choice" doesn't apply to the majority of adults (most straight men don't have the option of multiple sex partners, most women don't want them) so it's difficult to see its relevance here.

If you mean throughout their life rather than concurrently, that doesn't really affect the idea that marriage itself is of special significance.
Honestly Beat Saber burns calories like nobody’s business.

Boxing games are great too. I literally need to pause and rest when I’m playing Thrill of the Fight, but it never feels like a “workout,” just like I’m doing a thing and it’s physically hard.

Heard good things about Fit XR, but I think it’s a subscription, which sucks.
I wonder if this is laying the groundwork for the removal of task manager and on system or Microsoft apps the option for force quit will not be available.
Why the 'back-up career' is moving further out of reach
Completely agree here.

And the fact of the matter is, long term memory is actively being worked on. You can already approximate reasonably with a Vector DB and embeddings, feeding the relevant results into the context.

As is increasing the "working memory" (context size) in a more efficient manner: https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.16300

This isn't even getting into using things like Tree of Thought techniques to improve reasoning abilities and limit the search space for each portion of the problem to a reasonable size.
Couldn't agree with this more. It's always nice to think that some super clean UI beats making quick CSS adjustments alongside HMR or a quick build time but in my experience it probably never does. If I wanted to test different font weights of some text I wouldn't go into the CSS in my browser and adjust it, I'd just change the value in my CSS (helped more-so by CSS frameworks such as Tailwind), and see how the output changed. The upside being that if I like how it looks, I've already made the change to my code. I don't know who this would realistically save any significant amount of time a week for outside of an inexperienced developer who doesn't have a pretty good idea of how slight style differences will impact the final product.
Yeah but then again why would your marry and commit to a "2/10 friend" who doesn't share anything with you ?

I know a couple who have been together for close to 20 years, they love being together, talking together, going out together, &c. and they're just thinking about getting married now, and they're only doing it to simplify some paperwork for something unrelated

Marriage isn't a checkbox, it's an option if you find the right person and want to legally bind your things to their things in case of death/disease/&c.
making it sound like no one swapped bands pre apple is a stretch

I suspect the author is too young or rural to remember when watch stores were common (stand-alone, in malls, in department stores, in airports, etc...), and you'd go in to have a battery changed, or pick a new strap from the hundreds on display.
Should make it clear, I’m not saying being a (human) CEO is some altruistic career. Capitalism will burn us all to the ground.

But AI CEO is so blatantly “saying the quiet part out loud” that it’s just comically maligned.
If the task manager hadn't gone from guaranteed to pop up instantly if the machine wasn't hard frozen to taking over a minute to become usable when the machine is under moderately high load over the past ten years, this would be a less necessary feature
Sounds like something Epicurus would say.
This is a thing! Lots of things can “stall” contractions, prolonging the already long and drawn out process that opens up a woman so that she can pass a child through an opening normally no larger than a pipet. Lights, beeping, iv’s, etc.
Nintendo should be worried...

then again, they tried something like this already. but it never took off.

virtual boy (iirc?) I was still a kid... the technology has come a long way, they should be already working on doing something in this space... again.

Unless he grabbed the game more than 12 days before the release date, it was all a waste of time because the game was already leaked online by then...
It has worked so well for Apple that I'm honestly surprised they haven't gone down the "bling route" with the iPhone, limited edition super-high end status symbol phones.
As they are landing pads for Goa'uld, they probably do have some power generation capability.

More seriously, a French wrapper is just that and not the government in any capacity.
They probably registered the .com before .gov was easy to get. FWIW when I click your .gov link I get an SSL warning in safari on iOS.
Why? Their data is like three months behind. Is that still actionable?

Hi potential employers! I am a Computer Science sophomore and Rodman Scholar in the Engineering School at the University of Virginia. I am fortunate to have 3 past internships in Software Engineering over the past summers and have worked on many projects that I am passionate about in the realm of web development as well as machine learning. For example, recently I created this AI Podcast Generator https://podcastmania.us/. Please feel free to check out some of my recent work and past projects on my resume and contact me if your company is searching for interns with my skillset.

Interesting that you rank some state boards as better than CBSE. Where I'm from (Karnataka), the state board textbooks felt like they weren't nearly as rigorous or interesting as the CBSE equivalents. Any particular state boards that you're referring to?
> Time will tell if we'll eventually look back some of Rust's design decisions as bad or unwieldy (probably).

I think time has already told for things like async and lifetimes.
...Inviting what now?

I was talking about an AGI, not an LLM. We don't have any AGIs right now, nor anything that is remotely likely to become one.

In the scenario where a company like OpenAI develops an AGI with the intention of making it publicly available, it will not be so from moment one. There will be some period of internal testing, and assuming that it does prove to be a genuine AGI, you can bet that they won't make it available to the public for anything less than an arm and a leg. (Hell, even if it only proves to act much more like an AGI, without actually being one, they'd charge through the nose for it. Yes, they'd make you pay them an arm and a leg, through your nose. Somehow it's more profitable that way.)

Given that the nightmare scenario being posited is, effectively, "as soon as AGI exists, it will take over the world", we're then left with three basic possibilities:

1) TotallyNotOpenAI builds this hypothetical AGI with full sandbox protections, and doesn't give it any interface to the world that would allow it to break them—no API that would give it any kind of unrestricted access or control to anyone else's systems, no matter how much those people wanted to give that to it. The AGI remains contained, whether it would choose to take over the world or not.

2) TotallyNotOpenAI builds the hypothetical AGI with no protections, because it doesn't actually believe there's any real risk. Before the AGI is even revealed to the world, it takes over from within TotallyNotOpenAI.

3) TotallyNotOpenAI builds the hypothetical AGI with full sandbox protections inside its own systems, but builds an API to allow other people to give it control over theirs, because let them pay us to screw themselves over, right? It's not like it'll take over the—oh, wait; it's taken over the world, which we also live in. Oops.

Of these, #3, which is the only one close to what you describe, seems pretty logically inconsistent. It requires not only that TotallyNotOpenAI consider the AGI dangerous enough to themselves to sandbox, but not dangerous enough to prevent from accessing other systems (which can, of course, also access their systems, unless they're fully airgapped), but that they announce this AGI, and market it publicly, with the explicit capability to be given access to other people's systems, and not have anyone quickly step up and say "Hey, that's a bad idea, we should block this". Including anyone working for TotallyNotOpenAI.

Is it impossible? No. But I wouldn't consider it nearly as likely as possibility #0: We aren't able to create AGI within our lifetimes, because just throwing more hardware at the problem when we barely understand how our brains work isn't enough.
The US treasury sold ~$1 Trillion in IOUs to private individuals in Q1. While Individuals trade back and forth, this represents a net outflow.

https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy1231
Exactly. The idea that an AGI will be contained in a virtual box is a non-starter. That ship has already sailed.
I understand this, but haven't found this to be an issue personally. I just download the pre built tarball, expand it, make sure that /opt/zig-latest symlinks to the right folder, and setup path

That's more work than apt-get install for sure, but not so much more

Currently we have a map of discovered nodes inside the network, and an auto-install and auto-penetrate feature, which is meant for batch installing a lot of nodes with the agent.

The agent itself is also able to spread itself to different architectures and operating systems once a single system is installed, depending on the selected aggressiveness after the discovery phase for the surrounding network.

There's also a prototype that's trying to use a bunch of RCEs to "conquer back" lost nodes, and to reinstall the tholian guard on those systems even when the hacker got (temporary) administrative rights and locked the "old agent" out or managed to delete it.

From a legal standpoint this has to be separate product, where companies and their assets/systems/networks have to be manually vetted before they're able to use that feature, but I think you know where I'm getting at with the idea.
You’re confusing stupidity with narrow expertise. I know CPAs who don’t file their own taxes because that wasn’t the focus of their niche. I know surgeons who don’t know the difference between a transistor and a resistor.

Plenty of smart people don’t understand how ChatGPT works or what it’s limitations are. A bunch of nerds built the best BS generator in history and marketed it as a super intelligent computer. If you ask it for relevant cases and it spits out a bunch of plausible information, is it really on them to know the tool is just really good at making things up?
Zig has a builtin @Vector type that might come in handy for most cases where in C++ a math library with operator overloading would be used:

Why can't you just go and get a new number plate, without an advert on it?

In the UK you just take your vehicle registration document to any motor accessories shop and have them make up a plate, for not much money.

I'd assume they're better at catering to the lowest common denominator tbh.

As for libraries/project trying to solve a technical problem, I'd look for 3rd parties saying they're using them and how it's going for them. Definitely wouldn't trust "stars".
> Since when is C a high-level language?

Umm, since the day it was created?

High level languages were understood to be the ones that abstracted away the implementation details of the underlying architecture. Pascal and C were definitely considered high level languages.

A mix of both? I share a lot of hobbies with my wife, life wouldn't be as fun without her. We can talk about trivial things together such as "did you kill the frog boss yesterday? How was it?". That's something I would do with a friend (and still do), but my wife can also cover that role.
Yes, my first thought on reading the headlines was ,"Great---it's actually working!"

It's worth noting that as of 2020, only 32.5% of full professors were women (https://www.aaup.org/news/data-snapshot-full-time-women-facu...). So still a sizable gap.
They already do have enough resolution to do real work. The problem is that for a lot of folks it is physically straining and taxing to be in a VR headset for hours and hours straight. A small portion of people just physically cannot do anything in VR without getting violently sick.
