After job cuts, Meta to clamp down on remote work, require 3 days in office
I was at Wood St in Oakland, CA.

I was beat up by that black woman Ramona Cayce. I was washing dishes, and she stole the dish soap. What followed was a black woman hitting me, while people egged her on, and then I was blamed. She is a drug addict, as are almost all the residents, including T, the person who started ALL the fires, and P, who tried to control as much as the crime as possible, and G, who stole 3 cars a night. You want facts? I was there. No one, least of all the New York Times gives a shit about the facts.
My best friend from high school is homeless right now despite my efforts to help him. My best friend from grade school was homeless in my town for a few years(I wasn't aware at first to help). My wife was a social worker. I've had many interactions, albeit brief, with homeless in my city. I'm not exactly ignorant and I'm not sure the fellow from your article isn't an activist with an agenda. I'm also skeptical of the data gathered on the problem. It's probably not very good because in most cities they can't even get an accurate census/count of homeless.
The law is a product of ethical considerations.

Just because you found a tax loophole doesn't mean you're fulfilling the ethical obligations that motivated the law.

Without a recovery program, some people will still just spend their day smashing car windows to get money for drugs, then go home to their free apartment

Other than react hooks I don't see the problem with react either. It is about as standard as jQuery. If anything it brought an end to the 3 year or less JS framework lifecycle.
> even by multiple aircraft

I have another interesting story about that, from the century before the last one as it happens: my great grandfather and a friend of his was walking along a road on a misty evening, talking about this and that. After a while another man caught up with them and made them company for a stretch, but without saying anything. After another while the man dropped off and disappeared into the fog.

My great grandfather and his friend continued for a while in silence, until the friend felt he had to say what he sensed was on both of their minds: "Uhum, did you notice something odd about that man that made us company just now?", "yes! I certainly did" said my great grandfather "but I didn't want to say. He didn't have a head!". "Exactly!" said the friend.

To this day nobody can understand how a man without a head could be seen walking around in the Danish countryside.
I agree blaming the homeless is oversimplifying a complicated issue, but I don't think it's evident that shortage of housing is the primary cause.

There are plausible explanations for non-causal correlations between housing costs and homelessness. For example:

- homeless tend towards warm climates, which have higher housing costs because most people prefer warm climates

- homeless tend towards cities, where they can more easily find support. Cities also have higher costs of living because they are densely populated

Looking at the list of cities with the most homelessness per capita, the vast majority of them are temperate year-round. http://www.citymayors.com/society/usa-cities-homelessness.ht...
It doesn't have to be a problem with those partitions. You could use zpools with different zfses inside. They can all use the same space yet are still different filesystems.

But if FreeBSD or OpenBSD do something like this, they will make sure it can be managed by the user too, not like Apple.

If you're linked to something on twitter or discord or so, odds are that you'll open it in that container because that's the default behavior. While you're right, and I use containers as well, I'm not sure that's a solid way to prevent this attack unless the person can be convinced to diligently right click anything they wish to open, copy the link, and manually paste it in a fresh new tab.
> There is strong local resistance to construction especially if it's for poor people, or worse, homeless,

The US used to do that. It led to high-rise ghettos.[1] And that was before drugs were big.

If I understand you correctly, you're concerned about detectable electromagnetic emissions.

My reading is that the peak magnetic field is 20 Tesla, not necessarily that the amplitude of the variations is 20 Tesla. Also, the reason they need to us ELF radio to communicate with submerged submarines is that seawater rapidly attenuates most radio frequencies.

Alternatively, if they're varying the magnetic field slowly enough... at the bottom of the ELF band, the wavelength (in a vacuum) is about 8 times the diameter of the Earth, so I'm guessing in seawater that's about 4 times the diameter of the Earth. Localizing such an EM source with enough precision (say, within the destructive radius of a 300 kt nuclear depth charge) to be tactically or strategically useful might prove very difficult if a quarter wavelength is the size of the Earth.
Ok, probably you and I are talking about different things.

But on your point, what's the root cause of this issue? Why do people hire people with outsized compensations when the other option is empirically proven?
>> a sphere seems like a terrible geometry for atmospheric flight no matter your technology for propulsion.

Only if you do not have a "friction negation" field for your air/spacecraft.

>> it appears to be moving faster than a jet.

From the article: "Graves and at least 50-60 fellow naval aviators observed unknown objects, frequently via multiple sensors, that remained stationary over the ground even in hurricane-force winds, or traveled at speeds faster than sound."

With negated friction it does not matter what the shape is, you can go fast.

thinking um "out loud". Looking at the reddit api, there isn't that much, once you ignore some of extra features like live, friends, flair etc...

It might an interesting idea to just have an api website and people can just plug in their own front ends and use it how they wish. apps more or less just switch their hostname.

other then trying to fund the infra for an api, it seems easy. clearly paying isn't an option and with all text there's no ads to show.

lemmy at a glance looks confusing, i don't want to join a bunch of mini reddits.
Maybe they need to be separated by some distance.

It won’t be cheap (likely with security and other support staff you’re looking at one or to staff per “homeless”) but at some point something has to be done, or the status quo continues forever.

That seems to be the playbook. Anyone who doesn't think the sky is falling and we all need to surrender power to our betters is a denier (or denialist, whatever that suffix does). I wonder how long that will continue to work.
There are no subjective experiences, just bad software. Your bad meat software constantly creates illusions that you believe to be real because you're not really rational enough to question those.

Of all the peculiar software qualities you might have appealed to as consciousness, you choose the one that's the most plainly defective?

My memory confabulation begins just 480 milliseconds after the event occurred, therefor I have a transcendent soul! My sensory organs are so poorly adapted, NNs have to fabricate entire swaths of data just for me to navigate the physical world, therefor I have an ineffable mind that sets me apart from all other lumps of matter!
The title should reflect the fact that this thread is primary LeCun responding to Bengio, not the latter expressing himself.

Unfortunately this "response" sounds more like a press release from his employer, whose actual track record on these things is hardly reassurring.

But here is the thing: that scenario has been happening for years and effective countermeasures have been implemented.

Social networks (Facebook and Instagram in particular) have implemented countermeasures against attempts to corrupt the democratic process since at least 2017.

And then of course he says "but don't take my word for it, here's their quarterly report." Gee thanks, how reassuring.
> What people don’t consider is that when “we”, the people with houses, don’t spend our dollars housing homeless people, we pay sooner or later in other ways whether we want to or not when society around us partly disintegrates and additional effects start stacking up: substance abuse, violent crime, healthcare costs etc.

There's a different way to look at it as well. I don't so much pay for housing as I pay for my choice of housing. If I couldn't afford housing I'd just get whatever was deemed enough for me, the system would essentially make the choice. What i pay for is the privilege of choosing something that I want, instead of what's convenient for the system.

> 25% died (overdose on drugs), and 21% returned to the streets

You are cherry picking statistics

Housing first has been shown over and over again to be a better solution than expecting people to recover their lives before they get any help

What are your counterfactuals? How many die with no help?

Where do those numbers even come from?

Basically I am calling this out as disinformation. Lies
Reddit is effectively dead to me if the third-party apps that make it bearable go away.

The few subs that I am in now are pretty low-quality overall, with most posts being either the same questions asked over and over by people who can't be bothered to read the sidebar or use the search feature, or image meme shitposts. I won't be missing much if I can no longer access them on my own terms.

I feel like Reddit is somehow jealous of the success of Facebook and Twitter for vapid content and is taking their best run at digging themselves down to the same level. Quantity over quality always wins on the modern Internet I guess.

(Edit: The fact that they don't even want their users browsing Reddit on a smartphone web browser should have been a giveaway that they were going to lock down their assets further eventually.)
Quebec is basically a confederate state that periodically holds a brexit referendum to threaten the rest of the country, and we all kiss their ass for a while and (so far) the secession No votes win out, for twenty years or so, rinse, repeat.

The cancon rules play out in absurd ways on a regular basis; there was a case where a Bryan Adams album didn't qualify but an Aerosmith album did due to where it was recorded, and while I never looked too closely at either case I'm sure there was some bureaucratic discretion exercised somewhere along the way.

That said, Cancon will always get my vote, I think we do have a distinct set of musical conventions from other places and it's got a lot to do with the government assistance.
The Scala ecosystem has a few ways to do composable type-safe query building, e.g. Slick[0] or more recently Quill[1]. I believe both also have ways to do compile-time string interpolation (e.g. sql"""select * from users where id = ${user.id}""".as[User]) which generate prepared statements (I know Slick does prepared statements. Quill appears to have a similar interpolator).

Large corporations don't actually own many homes. It is true that they started buying them during covid, but that is mostly because they realized they are extremely good investments due zoning making it hard to build them. In order for housing to be affordable it can't be an investment. It needs to maintain its real value over time, meaning the wage to price ratio remains constant. If housing wasn't a good investment it wouldn't be owned by corporations. So I'd say your idea is on the right track, but just misses the last step which is just make housing affordable by allowing it to be built.
Viewed as a lisp this is disappointing. Manual memory management means lexical closures will be a pain. Native integers mean you have to remember about overflow. Stuff that lisp doesn't care about.

Viewed as a replacement for the C preprocessor, or perhaps for C++ templates, this is very compelling. When you know the C you'd like to write, but it's annoyingly verbose and updating it by hand means changing a dozen places at once, systems like this amount to a more structured code generator.

It might be worth copying the sometimes-garbage-collected approach. In particular, you could have real garbage collection at compile time and raise an error if any of the residual code wants to call into it.

Are people homeless because they could afford rent, but rather be homeless if they cannot buy? Further, if the rental market was saturated, it wouldn't pay off anymore to buy rental units. If the demand for rental is just there because there is nothing to buy, it's a clear indicator that there just isn't enough housing (in the desired places). Ultimately the answer will always remain that we need to build more housing. We haven't built enough in decades and it will take a long time to catch up, especially if we don't start on it. We need to relax zoning, remove minimum unit sizes and make it quick and predictable to get approval for new construction. Right now, many of the neighborhoods we love so much would be illegal to build today.
> And this is pretty visible to the user too

How would even a tech savvy person know of this going on in the background, without being suspicious a priori? Embedded frames can be made invisible, overlaid with something else, or put off-screen. You'd have to be very familiar with this attacker's site to know that it's unusually slow today and loading longer than usual, or showing it's loading while the page appears to be already fully loaded. With the gigabytes of javascript that are common nowadays, that's not unusual.

The riskiest part is probably the sharing, as email notifications of such actions are commonly sent out.
I was actually surprised that Linux was mature enough that it had a "journal" dedicated to it when the web was new - my memory is hazy, but if I'd had to guess, I would have guessed that the web actually predated linux. I was definitely already pretty familiar with the world-wide web before I had heard of Linux.

Yeah, but my meaning is to offer a good to great value gaming card that can do a job of getting feet wet in the AI side. I don't think the bulk of people dipping their toes into AI on NVidia/Cuda are using their really expensive cards. AMD needs to win over the hobbiest and SOHO workstation types.

The same types that will run a 5950x/7950x for 16-cores without jumping to threadripper or server parts are the same ones that are playing with Cuda on 3080/4080 class hardware. This drives the market in open-source and prosumer into the professional path.
Keeping the log file tidy isn't just an OCD thing. If you're searching for a needle in a haystack, where needle is "suspicious login", and the haystack is "all of the login attempts from the past the months", your job is made much easier when the haystack is much smaller.

That said, the fail2ban defaults are way too low and I've locked myself out with them. They can be turned way up (ban after way many more attempts) so that there's no risk of locking out legitimate users. (Assuming your users didn't forget their exact password and then generated a small dictionary to try with.) On a server with potential misconfiguration, accepting passwords is one of them.
It's a bit more complex than that. At the surface, it's true - only 15% of homeless people in Seattle lived out of county before becoming homeless. But a deeper look shows as many as 30% more never really could afford housing - they had marginal housing situations, living with a friend, relative, or romantic partner without paying a proportionate share for their prior living situation.

This is part of the discrepancy - one side shoves the 15% number at everybody while the other side shoves at 45% number at everybody - we can't agree on what we're measuring.

See e.g. http://allhomekc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Updated-7.11...

Edit: not to mention that these studies are all surveys and this political issue is pretty well known, so there is a strong incentive to lie.
IMO The issue is that anytime more money becomes available, CA government/bureaucracy sucks it up. Lots of state jobs created to run these programs that ultimately do little good. Seems more like middle class jobs program than actually attempting to solve the problem.
I agree with you, I just feel like if I were working a minimum wage job busting my ass to pay rent to my landlord, I’d be deeply offended that you can be rewarded free housing essentially for being addicted to drugs.

> A research institution can produce bad researchers (Harvard, UC, and Google included), so we can't go with this suggestion either

Why not? The same is true of an individual researcher. But if they do, it damages their reputation, so they have an incentive to not. The same as the institution.
How far does that field travel, though, and how much does it affect the field that a submarine has by nature? Remember, a submarine has somewhere in the range of 6-12 inches or more of special types of steel for their inner pressure hulls, so that gives off a pretty freakin' big magnetic signature anyways. Generally, there aren't any super-reliable ways to track a sub from more than a few kilometers anyways, and those are mostly acoustic, so you want to reduce the acoustic signature way way more than the magnetic signature. A magnetic anomaly detector will generally just give you a "hot/cold" signal, as in the "you're getting hotter/colder" game you play as a kid, and "hot" here means "there might be a sub within the nearby few kilometers, but it could also be an unmapped underwater mountain full of iron or a cargo ship we can't see right now".
