Like I said the title was correct and meant to say exactly what it says, the title of BBC was not.

Like I said, BBC is getting there … hopefully .

I am not going to edit the reality just because BBC is slow. Like I said I took their article as related, nothing more. The idea of title is to express the essence of the topic shortly. BBC have to put some bs at the end because they have failed to work an find out but I do not have to. Actually if we think about it they do not have to as well.
Their role and obligation should be to deliver what really has happened, the objective reality. Not the middle between lie and reality which is a lie by definition and not ‘this side have said this’ and ‘other side have said that’ and BBC have no idea what is credible. What they do is not journalism , it is a BS picture that does not represent the objective reality.

Please refrain from editing me and trying to edit the real event. The same goes for BBC which should also refrain from this.

Brave browser tries to do some annoying crypto thing by default and has some questionable privacy settings but you can turn all that off. Other than that it is a great browser which has built in ad-blocking (including for youtube). The search is great and is constantly improving.
We should be moving away from that not further into it though.
Bounce back is actually logical conclusion. If withdrawing BTC is faster it makes sense to buy it with dollars(in SEC's reach) and then moving them elsewhere and taking the money.
Eh, there’ll be a pretty sharp turn within the timeframe of 20 years or so, maybe, but nothing real drastic is going to shift over the course of a year - I mean, short of a nuclear attack. Thing all just get measurably worse, poor people will get gut with the worst of it. I don’t think it’ll be bad enough for the jet set crowd.

Probably yes for you and me, but I've observed how my parents (70+) interact with Google's search results, and for them there's no difference between an ad at the top and "real" search results.

I'm pretty sure they would consider this response as something which could be a feasible search result and would engage with it, albeit somewhat confused. They'd very likely discard it as a non-helpful response, but I'm not sure if they would know that Microsoft has injected this huge ad on purpose in order to glue them to Bing, so I don't see how they would go into full rejection-mode.

To them the internet is full of inexplicable annoyances that get in the way all the time, unless they stay in their walled garden, so they've accepted it. Even more so since they don't use an ad-blocker and therefore get bombarded with a lot of trash.

Any output from a brain can also be represented mathematically-- it's a physical object, after all. Coming up with the parameters for those expressions is the much harder part, for both brain and AI.
That is not really good advice. There are frequent mobs that believe others to be assholes. For that matter, I believe you almost always qualify for that if you form that strong opinions about someone from internet comments because that directly reflects on your narrow perspective and you willingness to act on insufficient information.

If I think AITA subs and similar communities really aren't very tolerant people at all. Sure, there are people that like to provoke, but I think some subs are just some form of merger of similar people believing themselves to be oh so generous in their judgmentality but in reality are pretty toxic by almost all standards.
The vision pro showcases one use case which is compelling enough to make me consider buying it (in a couple of years, when it’s more settled): As a replacement for a monitor for work. Seriously, having a huge monitor everywhere is a game changer for me.

If camera based hand tracking works already, it seems like a Bluetooth controller wouldn't be that hard to add in after the fact. Didn't PSVR just use a single camera and a glowing orb?
It is my opinion that the decline in US Christianity has not reduced the underlying religiosity, and the population that would previously have been firm believers in angels/demons/gods/etc. have directed their desire to believe to something else. UFOs are one of many such alternatives.
Odd, in online discussion I’ve never seen somebody suddenly change the topic to condemn trans-activists. I frequently see people suddenly change the topic to condemn gender critical views.
Unless they have a legal requirement to provide product for disabled people, why would they care? It's a huge investment for very little output, unless this product is specifically targeted.

And that's fine. Choice is good. IMO the problem isn't that there are a lot of things to choose from, it's that there are a lot of things on top of each other. Stuff on top of stuff on top of stuff.

I personally wouldn't want to live in a world in which I could only use "one of these 5 languages", whatever those are. But I would love to live in a world where things weren't so deep in abstraction and complexity. These are two very different problems.

How does any of that affect his thesis that the black object in this specific video isn't the aircraft but is rather an artifact of the camera?

He doesn't make any claims about the aircraft because he is saying it isn't visible... and the scope of his analysis is this single piece video evidence.

Gaming on Apple is going to depend on how well optimized the drivers and shaders for the GPU are going to be. You'll also need some serious upscaling because most Macs come with super high res screens, a GPU that won't be able to drive modern games at those resolutions and an utterly lack of graphics card support, even in the new Pro.

Another factor is that major GPU companies put efforts into rewriting some games' shaders to make them run better on their hardware. I doubt Apple is going to do that so you'll probably end up with games performing better on other platforms soon after release.

There's more to getting games to run smoothly on a platform than compatibility software. So far, the GPU has been lacking despite Apple's attempts to hype up gaming for mac. With the rate things are going, the year of gaming on Mac may be the same as the mythical year of the Linux desktop: inching ever closer but never really arriving.
I feel like there is only so much "interesting" stuff going on in the lives of the people I care about.

The need for SM companies to get more of my time requires them to shower me with increasingly irrelevant content to keep my engagement going up. At some point there is literally no additional time people can spend in SM (you can't get a time credit card).

So more ads it is until the plattform is barely usable for someone not interested in the passively consumed avalanche of polished medicare.

That's why chat groups are increasingly popular I think. You get to have a two way conservation with people who respond and care about you (at least a little bit). Meeting them in real live (or one on one online) also enforces the "authenticity" of the interaction.

Therefore I expect Facebook to introduce lots of ads to WA very very soon.
You will be surprised to know that ~4% of US workforce works in IT. 4.7% of European workers are in ICT.
I don't know what you mean by "censorship" but I'd like to know what history you're referring to. HN is certainly a moderated/curated site but we try as hard as we can to moderate it on principle and to explain clearly what those principles are.
Not an expert but, yes.

The purpose of introducing this kind of law is to continue to expand the legal recognition of what we now consider to be ethical, based on our continually expanding understanding of the world.

You just made the point of the previous poster and you judge quickly. Allegedly in the interest of others, but I believe you are fooling yourself.
Not sure why you're downvoted, it's a fact that Linux is way better for gaming and powerful desktop hardware.
Just need to figure out how to do AI inference without tanking rendering performance.

Offloading AI stuff to a cloud would make single player games unplayable offline and their servers won't stay online forever.
Another solution would be to use a second GPU just for AI stuff. But that would make most current gaming devices useless.

If it is about content, why would everything still have to be "apps" in their walled garden? If they want content, allow people to freely use it to their liking and produce and innovate new things.
> Also education, where kids can ask questions and give the answers.

Not sure how parents feel about putting kids in front of a machine that can fabricate lies.

I mean a encyclopaedia getting information wrong is one thing - garbage in, garbage out - but one that actively invents lies is like added another layer of bad to things.

Probably better for kids learn to search for information and evaluate information sources.
Because gamers, or even consumers, is not the target demographic for a $3500 device. They want to brand as a device for enthusiasts (but Apple everything!) or professional (work video chat, artists, graphic designers).
I ditched fdupes for rmlint a couple of years ago because of the substandard speed improvement. If jupes is as fast as they claim, it’s certainly worth a look.
This is incredibly short sighted.

The rate at which we've been developing tools has been increasing, and has also required more specialization. You cannot switch jobs easily from being a software engineer to a heavy equipment operator but they both use sufficiently advanced tools. Looking at top level employment metrics is also hiding quite a bit of information. Time is required for people to learn new skills. If a sudden influx of people were all heavy equipment operators then the market will price that in and suddenly that job is the same as mopping a fast food bathroom.

Unfortunately it looks to be mostly papering over Core Data, after a few huge Core Data projects I don't really care to work with it anymore, especially in SwiftUI.

The more interesting addition to me looks to be CKSyncEngine, which would allow for easily adding a CloudKit sync engine to something like GRDB.

Defining models in structs and extending and conforming them to various protocols, using them in SwiftUI and passing them across threads feels much more natural to me.
Ah, this again. Much like the people who insist return-to-office is good because they can socialize again, I can assure you that plenty of us are still capable of answering "what makes me happy" and that answer, virtually always, being "not work", much like plenty of us are capable of having social lives outside of work.

Also, great, good point, so what. "Yes, I advocate for the soul-crushing status quo because my life would be nothing without work". Sounds like a you problem. Meanwhile, younger generations that, oh I don't know, have their own pursuits, don't really jive with that.
I think my point flew over your head. The burden of proof is on you to provide the source that human creativity can be computed mathematically.
it seems as a civilization we're betting that tech, especially AI will be able to compensate for the drop in labor because of the population decline
I'm going to answer to myself, since above is already a tl;dr and it's unlikely that these comments will attract any kind of attention. Note to self. There's a subtler political point that the paper is trying to make, neither vaquero tradition, nor historic accounts by colonists can strongly testify to the existence of indigenous sacred tradition in the 1600s. This are my suppositions, but I suspect what when the various conquistadors were exploring North America, they wouldn't be privy to the burgeoning sacred equestrian tradition of the indigenous tribes. By the time anglos cross the continent and establish strong enough ties to learn of such a sacred tradition, it becomes impossible to date exactly the tradition's beginning. The paper tries very hard (with talk of care, and quotes from tribe representatives) to establish that such a tradition was already establish in the 1600s, so by the time there was a contact with anglos, indigenous peoples really really knew what they were doing.
From a quick look, the patch doesn't seem to contain references to Metal, but just a lot of random updates—backports from upstream Wine to the CrossOver thing?—including an AMD ADL implementation that is clearly for Linux (using /sys/class/… stuff). Maybe the whole toolkit is… literally just CrossOver?

Good. "In hindsight, we have 20/20 vision." The next pandemic will be different, with a different virus, acting differently. And dear god, I hope that we again chose the side of caution and go into lockdown. Even if it turns out to be a nett loss for the economy in the end.
i actually see this sort of commentary a lot, and i suppose it's apt for HN and other tech fora where people want open standards, but for the life of my i don't understand why we shouldn't develop with technology designed _with_ the hardware. this is apple's forte, and i've done a lot of generic development in the past, as well as multi-cloud cloud computing and the only takeaway i have is that they always provide inferior experiences for the sake of some nebulous goal

the point of apple vision pro is to run apple hardware with apple software, and people _want_ that.
Heh, sounds like Apple's "Magic Leap" moment. ;)
And +10 years ago nobody thought to play on Mac. But now with the market share they have… Hard to ignore as a business and if Apple do all the heavy lifting for us games are going to come on Mac.

Once again, that is an incredibly strong assertion and if you wish to be reasonable then the burden of proof is on you to prove those parameters before making such claims (e.g. that creativity = math).

The notion that creativity lies beyond what is systemetizable (or otoh, the value in creativity is to defy that which can be computed), seems more in line with my sense of it.
It’s also not hard to find people (see: me) in industries where AI has been prophesied to be exceptionally disruptive, saying that actually, meh, it’s not going to mean much ultimately.

I’m a programmer, and sure, I’ve asked ChatGPT to write some unit tests, and I’ve encouraged CodePilot to suggest some function signatures, but - it’s still ‘just’ a novelty, and it is wildly out of reach of ‘disruptive.’ It’s not doing anything I couldn’t do, and it’s not doing anyone not at my level would know what to do with. You’ve still got to be a programmer to see whether the code it generates is good.

People kind of forget that about art - everyone has an opinion about how art looks. But there’s really one main way everyone knows to test code: does it work? And if you don’t know how to stitch it together so it works, it doesn’t look like anything to the initiated. You can write 10000 thousand lines of code, and even if it’s brilliant technically, unless you can demonstrate it to the client, it’s practically worthless. You still need a programmer to figure out what to do with chatGPT’s output, clients don’t know what to do with it.

Everyone has an opinion on almost-perfect AI art - almost-perfect code doesn’t compile.
More and more and more the United States's problems are summarized as "mass cognitive dissonance" because there are a lot of people whose entire world view would collapse and leave them with very little, were they to stop dunking their heads in the kool-aid every day. Even worse if you're part of an older generation and deep down part of you knows that you're equivocating and rationalizing a dying dream.

Maybe throw in a dose of American exceptionalism too, for the folks in the thread implying that, well, I shouldn't quote that phrase, that's tacky, but we'll just glorifying, justifying and seemingly promoting the soul-suckingness of work because their own soul is devoid of any individual or social pursuits outside of work.
I'm not sure this is even worth the effort. The claims about efficient use of land area and water with this technique is questionable. I tried this myself, and some of the major issues I found is that corn seems to out compete companion plants for light, water and nutrients. The situation is even worse when your companion plants are melons or pumpkins, which also demand a lot water and light. So in the end, you'll end up with diebacks, lanky growth and low yield produce - or mostly just corn crops, because it would win the resource competition.

To prevent the above issues from happening, you'd have to space out corn so sparsely, that the corn crop amount you're getting will be hardly worth it, or you need to use a bigger garden area to make companion cultivation worthwhile in terms of results. And if you are using more land area, you might as well just partition out the companion plants into their own separate fields and get more yield that way, without any competition.
> It's insane that a billion-dollar company like Meta actually felt proud to release such a steaming pile of trash

Let's be real. You can have all the money in the world, but that doesn't guarantee you access to talent. It doesn't guarantee that you made insightful technical decisions that hamstring you later in the product cycle. It doesn't free you from short-sighted managers or employees who just care about making it to the next vesting cycle.

When you're a billion-dollar(haha, not so significant these days) company, you have a tremendous pressure to show results. You have tremendous pressure to show innovation and be first to market. It has no bearing on the quality of the products you release in the short-to-medium term.

I agree this is the compelling use case. The benefit of a big monitor without having to devote space to it, and on the go.

Also, a private monitor where nobody can look over your shoulder, which is a game changer for doing any kind of sensitive work or personal business in a public or shared space.
Why not just implement a Typescript backend that outputs Python instead of Javascript? (-:

Aren’t all programs include AIs just a bunch of “if”s at the machine instruction level?
And? This is the second time I've seen this sentiment. Are you really trying to imply that because some people escape the American Rat Race with virtually no concept of self, or no social life, or no hobbies, that we should... what? Just accept that? Embrace it?

No. [explicative] nah.

That's kind of been my experience as a foreigner here in Germany. The severe problems aren't really all that severe.

Here are some things the article has to say about infrastructure: There's plentiful good food everywhere, inexpensive and freshly made. There are no food deserts. The public transport is good. The trams run, the bus stops don't reek of piss, the lamps work and when something new is built it's not like La Sombrita. Did I miss anything?
It’s also much, MUCH more economical to bring in a few prerolled joints or a vape pen than to buy beers at a venue.
I agree that keyboard and mouse is superior, but as a grown-up with a family, it's rather infeasible. The Steam Deck has been great; I actually play a game for 30 minutes maybe twice a week. I'm hesitant to even try keyboard and mouse on some games because it will spoil the experience with a controller. When I have the rare luxury of a free evening alone at my desktop, I'm more likely to play VR.
A thought experiment. The universe is extremely large and billions of years old. Let's imagine life has developed within a few of those billions of galaxies out there, then imagine this started 1 billion years before us. How advanced to you think we could get in another billion years (assuming we don't annihilate ourselves)? What's really impossible?
What I mean is when a particle travels back in time, the universe branches forward in parallel, from that particle, at the instant it arrives.
This resolves all paradoxes as the independently instantiated time streams can't interact.

I believe there are present theories of time/space that rely on this kind of idea.

It also might mean any time traveller could never get back to the exact "when" they came from. Though if there was a way to traverse parallel time streams, there'd be no paradox as the moment they arrived "back" would also branch.
The fewer people buy the more venues will be tempted to raise the prices, also.
ARM has both add-with-carry and add-without-carry instructions, a separate increment is not necessary. (I don't know much about AArch64, only ancient ARM2/3, but I expect they left this in).
> One wrong move, and the entire crew is gone.

Not really. Subs don’t move that fast in those tight of conditions. One wrong move and the sub bumps the canyon wall making a bunch of noise. Unless they are in actively hostile waters, it just means loss of stealth and the sub needs to choose a new location to lurk.
No, it is not obvious at all if you are not able to read minds. It never is and even suggesting bad faith is usually regarded as a faux pas.

You believe the example was asked in bad faith? I heavily doubt it, it is a pure insinuation. I believe you are just walrussing here.

edit: Never mind, "walrussing" allegedly does exist. But I believe the criticism still can be understood.

Equating sex to “forcing yourself onto others” and indicating that there’s less internalizing going on in the same sentence is pretty wild.
