Engagement / Followers is going to be largely ranked by what proportion of your followers are new, I think. I would expect about 0% of your Facebook followers from 10 years ago to engage, if they even log in anymore.

I think the absolute graphs are pretty convincing that there's a lot more going on than this, but it's gotta be a big factor.
If FSD is statistically safer than the 18 year old (or new driver of any age), is it ethical to knowingly cause more death by forcing the new driver to drive instead of allowing them to use FSD?
The state already runs community service programs. They can be expanded to handle the people living in the housing we built.

I'm not sure how giving someone a home and money for essentials is involuntary servitude. If these people don't want to do the service they can get a different job. I just realize that a lot of the homeless have what it takes to be successful, they just need structure and a little help.
I thought of that, too, but ultimately I discarded the idea. Claws don't manipulate things well, for a variety of reasons.

This reads more like a highly opinionated blog post. I’m not saying its claims aren’t true, but it certainly doesn’t bother to present hard evidence. It’s also just a bizarre list of complaints, primarily that Meta should have a larger presence in Kenya and give better amenities.

> Even if Meta could make the argument that it has no concrete ties to subcontracting companies in Kenya that operate on its behalf, it’s clear the social media company has no intention of bolstering its content moderation operations there.

I’m not sure how work force size got conflated with union busting.

> By working through contracting companies, Meta is immune from having to pay for workers’ health care or transportation — even daily meals and entertainment, which are amenities most of its full-time employees around the world not only enjoy but expect.

It’s weird to aim this at Meta. It also doesn’t say that they’re not receiving these benefits - just that Meta doesn’t pay for them, which is how I’d expect a vendor to work.

Edit, also:

> Facebook could choose to directly employ moderators rather than outsourcing them to companies like Sama in Kenya or Accenture in the United States. They could give them the same pay, benefits, and mental health cover as Facebook’s employees at Menlo Park …

Asking for Silicon Valley wages in Kenya is just bizarre.
Yes, observing publicly broadcast posts for signs of deliberately posted disinformation (and ignorantly reposted/amplified misinformation) is an excellent idea, since this is a primary vector for enemies, especially authoritarian states to implement asymmetric warfare, falsely motivating a population to fight against itself.

Yes, it sounds like it's close to the (legitimate) bogeyman of government intruding on it's citizens for nefarious control reasons. But these are public posts - intentionally posted publicly to persuade others — not private communications.

We should not be unilaterally disarming and blinding ourselves to what is happening the public sphere.

If you want a self-determined life in a society with a self-determined (i.e., democratic) government, then we must always be better armed and better prepared than the bullies and authoritarians. If not, they will steal our lunch and our government every time. Awareness of what is happening is just part of being prepared to keep our democracy.
I seem to recall your president talking about "shithole countries" and to be clear, I do not mean countries.

We have lawless backwaters right here in Manitoba. It's not a question of this or that geographical location, but of the willingness of capital to find the most lawless place it can find in which to operate, and the willingness of governments to be bought out of doing anything about it.

My countryman wants his entertainment cheap at any cost, and that's the entirety of the problem we've got right now. The most destructive weapon I've seen in the last forty years is price tags.
Twitter threads get diluted with 3rd party materials I never subscribed to. This kills the focus and any desire to participate in discussions. Twitter feels so fake and cringy nowadays - a distant departure from the hero of a new internet age it used to be.
The Ukrainians pay spacex for their internet just like every else in the world. They have an internet bill for each terminal that costs the same as it does in the USA. It wasn’t some charitable donation from Musk.

Musk was threatening to pull out of Ukraine because he complained it was costing him money and after he got to ride the initial wave of press releases about saving Ukraine he let his politics got in the way of his judgement.

Short Bio: I'm a full-stack software engineer based in West Palm Beach, FL. Most recently, I was the lead architect and developer for Fortuna, a highly available and fault-tolerant open-source Ethereum transfer event ingestor used to keep track of all ERC20, ERC721, and ERC1155 transfer events and token metadata since genesis, https://github.com/upstreamapp/fortuna. I'm also the co-creator of Campion, https://campion-breaker.github.io, an edge-based serverless middleware for implementing circuit-breaking functionality for distributed services. Previously, I founded BooklyBox, which was successfully acquired by Quarterly, https://techcrunch.com/2017/06/12/pagehabit/.
AFAIK, Apollo also has extensive moderator support (I'm not a mod so I can't speak to it but fairly confident it exists) but yeah, no iPad support which really sucks.

I took a look at Boost and it's really nice! Looks extremely similar to Apollo to the point that I think they may have just duplicated the Apollo app on Android and this is not a bad thing at all. I was considering doing the same for HN.
Interesting! One argument I see against hyperloop is the need for expensive vacuum bellows to deal with thermal expansion. I wonder if there is a locked in place solution like this that could eliminate the need for them.
I am confused by the different comments here: does UTM only uses QEMU or it also uses AVF if the chip architecture of the host and guest is the same?

Edit: I think the catch is that QEMU uses AVF if available [1].

If we can’t have native macOS on the iPad this would be the next best thing. Imagine having Linux or macOS on the iPad that is treated like any other app (sans memory limits and etc.). You could have a full blown desktop at the ready when iPadOS isn’t up to the task.

The iPad could finally utilize the m1 processor to its fullest.

Even before Starlink type networks I don't think the feasibility of shooting down satellites at scale ever really made sense. The risks are so high to your own satellites, and would start a dangerous escalation against a near peer that it's basically only for nuclear war type situations.

There's also the scale... There's a lot of GPS satellite redudancy, plus the US has about 8 active Keyhole, a bunch of radar ones, etc. NATO as a whole adds way more on top of that.

Otherwise Russia only has 2 Persona optical reconnaissance satellites and both are at the end of their life and only have 50cm resolution which is awful compared to commercial stuff you can buy online, let alone the US ones. GLONASS has 23 satellites.

China is probably a better example here but again I don't think ASAT is a huge priority, rather than just something you want to be capable of doing.
Mastodon had by far the lowest number of followers (lowest denominator). I’d expect regardless of platform, that the lowest follower count one would have the highest engagement rate. If your page hasn’t reached viral/etc status then only hardcore fans will have seemed out your page to follow it - so on mastodon no semi-interested people have followed who would be unlikely to comment.
macOS is not particularly closed in comparison to Windows, though. The opposite in fact in some ways..

Does vftool use https://developer.apple.com/documentation/virtualization or https://developer.apple.com/documentation/hypervisor ?

https://github.com/evansm7/vftool appears to indicate the former, but I thought the latter was required for rosetta so interested to try this.

EDIT - looks like I had this backwards, vftool indeed supports https://developer.apple.com/documentation/virtualization which is the newer framework that supports Rosetta. The older framework is https://developer.apple.com/documentation/hypervisor
I suppose I missed your option 3 which basically seems to be our current status quo. But government run make-work programs just seem like a non-starter in the modern US.
It is expected to be at an altitude of between 465 km and 500 km.

That means that from where you happen to be on the earths surface it will be above the horizon and in radio range once or twice a day for 30 seconds to a couple of minutes depending on how close to you it gets, how high up you can get your antenna and the terrain around you blocking some of your view of the sky.
Hard evidence? Whats your definition, and whats your expectation of it from this story? Its shining light on an issue and provides a lot of substance/evidence to its claims. I feel you're saying this doesn't really count unless there is an obvious "smoking gun".

Eh, I wouldn't say the say they handled the whole DR-DOS saga very reputably. And in 2001 they came to within an inch of their life in US v. Microsoft, a litigation mainly based on anticompetitive practices from the 90s.

Microsoft was disreputable in the 90s to the point they were almost broken up several times.
Isn't that an empty criteria? Doesn't the system disengage before an accident by design?
It could also be that the proportion of followers likely to engage in scientific topics is higher on a platform that (still) attracts more tech-savvy users.
> Much of the magic inside of neural network libraries has less to do with cleverer algorithms and more to do with vectorized SIMD instructions and/or being parsimonious with GPU memory usage and communication back and forth with main memory.

I mean… that’s not really fair is it?

We’ve been able to build NN libraries for 30 years, but it’s the transformers algorithm on top of it, and the stacked layers forming a coherent network that are the complex parts right?

Implement stable diffusion in clojure (the python code for it is all open source) and we quickly see that there is a lot of complexity once you’re doing something useful that the primitive operations don’t support.

It’s not really any different from opencv with the basic matrix operations and then paper-by-paper implementations of various algorithms.

Building a basic pixel matrix library using clojure wouldn’t give you an equivalent to opencv either.

Is there really a clear meaningful bridge between building low level operations and building high level functions out of them?

When you implement sqrt, you’ve learnt a thing… but it doesn’t help you build a rendering engine.

Hasn’t this always been the problem with learning ML “from scratch?”

You start with basic operations, do MNIST… and then… uh, well, no. Now you clone a python repo that implements the paper you want to work on and modify it, because implementing it from scratch with your primitives isn’t really possible.
All of your arguments in this subthread have been ad hominem attacks.
Since I live in Seattle, I would like to make this small nit know. :)

The headline is the only place the word "Seattle" appears. In the article, it quotes "The United States will not sacrifice ‘Los Angeles for Seoul."
Alternatively, they could regulate ownership of media as the US used to do. That would prevent centralized algorithms from accidentally amplifying foreign propaganda (and prevent foreign controlled algorithms from intentionally amplifying it).

Doing that would infringe on the freedoms of a few dozen plutocrats though, so instead we get universal surveillance.

It's been well reported SpaceX donated a ton of services to Ukraine early in the war for free. It's discussed in the article posted here? Of course Ukrainians will not all be getting it free.

SpaceX was mostly just saving face publicly about not directly working with the military and only doing it for civilian purposes. Which makes a lot of sense from a business perspective as they are a global business operating in plenty of countries. Once the DOD rolls up and offers a bunch of money those dynamics can change.
I watched a video just yesterday about wood ties vs. concrete ties. One of the arguments in favor of wooden ties in the US is that they are less brittle and thus more able to handle the frequent derailments we get. The nightmare scenario with concrete ties is that a loose wheel goes unnoticed for miles and cracks every single tie.

They mentioned a previous test experience with older concrete ties held together with naked angle-irons. A derailment severed all of the irons.

Countries should recognize they have intentionally allowed companies like Sama as it boosts their economy and they could easily ban them if they want to. And here the only point in suing Meta is that it is big and american and has money. They should regulate all companies like Sama to treat workers better instead of finding if there is a big entity linked to it.
This really should have happened shortly after the war began.

Then again discussions may have taken place, and the geopolitical consideration were (and are) massively complex. The level of aid that other countries, especially the US, were providing was a delicate balance especially in the beginning. Providing a resource of highly strategic usefulness under the fig leaf of it coming from a private US corp may have been deemed necessary. But at some point it’s unreasonable of the DoD not to foot the bill. After many many $Billions of lethal support the fig leaf has been torn off.

> We conflate “can’t estimate” with “not willing to do all the work necessary to create an accurate estimate” because we know that it’s easier and more economical to just jump into the code, than it is to do a deep, formal analysis.

True. This is often justified as "we don't do requirements/design because we are agile". Which is BS. If you have no big-picture design, you just end up with a patchwork of "features".
This.

The end of the article covers why they felt complete isolation was worth the network costs. Maybe this true for their organization.

From working on one of the largest ruby code base for the last 5+ years, I see the massive benefits of isolation without introducing the http barrier. Yes, service isolation can let you ship faster. In practice, the network barrier will make some kinds of rollbacks easier and other far more difficult.

The reliably of the whole system is a lot more costly with the added network failure modes.

Over time, the proliferation of services impose an ever growing maintenance tax to keep libraries up to date and mitigate security vulnerabilities across an organization.

Tl;dr there are no free lunches.
The new technique enables a bigger cube at full frame rate. From the article:

> “Apart from unlocking a number of improvements in XOR fillers and similar effects, the method, as used in the 4k, also significantly raises the bar for realtime filled sprite vector cubes. The cube displayed in "Boo!" draws over an area of size 172x172, up from 140x140 in Protogeo 100%. This improvement to size is because line computation that previously either took 7+ cycles per pixel (or exhaustive amounts of memory) can now, thanks to the BRR ("bit reverse rendered") line method, done in just 5 cycles per pixel.”

Good to point out a flaw

But is that a nit that changes nothing (e.g., there is significant other valid evidence that supports the same point) and so could be simply updated, or is it the linchpin of the entire argument, without which the entire premise and argument fails?

If it is the latter, it's good to draw our attention to it, but if the former, then this is kind of a meaningless distraction. I haven't got the time ATM to sort it out. Perhaps someone with knowledge could add the needed insight?
