My theory is that we are not alone - at some point throughout the existence of the universe, there has been, is, or will be some form of life on another planet - close to ours or far away from outs.

There probably is some new physics that we don't understand yet. My guess is that it's a matter of chemistry - there's probably a whole bunch of elements that don't exist here on earth, and we don't know what can be done with them. Maybe our visitors do, and that's why they are here, or maybe for some other reason. We'll likely never know the answer.

I'm pretty sure sqlite is capable of significantly higher throughput that 10-20k rows per second depending on the workload. Inserts can be much faster if they are batched in large transactions and prepared statements are used to avoid sql parsing for each row. This only works of course if your workload can be batched.

If you like the hardware or software that you use then I am happy for you.

"This is not a rasppi, different design goals/constraints."

That we can agree on.

Apple is a business with specific goals and so far as a business in terms of profits they have been successful.

All I wanted to point out was that Apple is not hacker friendly in my opinion, and I have listed good reasons that you don't want to accept. There's no amount of going in circles here that will change either point of view I fear.

Have a blessed day!
Apple need to ensure as many apps as possible raise their deployment target as soon as possible so that users with old devices are encouraged to upgrade to newer devices.
I wasn't a Digg founder, but I worked with them from the earliest days on Digg until its downfall.

The real story is probably way more interesting than anyone really would guess. I'll summarise it as so:

What made Digg work really was one guy who was a machine. He would vet all the stories, infiltrate all the SEO networks, and basically keep subverting them to keep the Digg front-page usable. Digg had an algorithm, but it was basically just a simple algorithm that helped this one dude 10x his productivity and keep the quality up.

Google came to buy Digg, but figured out that really it's just a dude who works 22 hours a day that keeps the quality up, and all that talk of an algorithm was smoke and mirrors to trick the SEO guys into thinking it was something they could game (they could not, which is why front page was so high quality for so many years). Google walked.

Then the founders realised if they ever wanted to get any serious money out of this thing, they had to fix that. So they developed "real algorithms" that independently attempted to do what this one dude was doing, to surface good/interesting content.

They thought they'd succeeded, or market pressures forced their hand, whatever. So they rolled it along with a catastrophic UI/UX and back-end tech rewrite all rolled up into one.

It was a total shit-show. I was involved in the "old" MySQL stack, and watched them totally fuck it up with beta software that wasn't ready for production (Cassandra, at the time, was not what it is today).

The algorithm to figure out what's cool and what isn't wasn't as good as the dude who worked 22 hours a day, and without his very heavy input, it just basically rehashed all the shit that was popular somewhere else a few days earlier.

So you ended up with a site that was ugly, fuxed, no-one in the existing wanted, and with a bland boring bunch of stories on the front-page, which was not at all compelling for anyone new showing up to check stuff out.

Instead of taking this massive slap to the face constructively, the founders doubled-down. And now here we are.

To be clear, much of the tech behind Digg was very interesting, the work Owen and many other engineers did was very interesting. The algorithm was all smoke and mirrors, though. And Kevin and his little circle of buddies were all crap engineers that tanked the business with their hubris and inexperience.

I also wonder if the real time OS stuff is a byproduct of the Apple Car project. As soon as they mentioned the R2 chip I immediately was asking myself "Did this come from the car project or will this make its way to the car project". Even if they never ship a car the tech they have to build/discover/etc in the process can help other product lines. Just like throwing Lidar into the phones/iPad Pro or all the ML/AR stuff helped this headset.

Cheaper, lighter, smaller, safer higher capacity batteries charged using renewable energy in ubiquitous charging points or even electrified roads are a long term solution. But we don't have it yet.

However, we know how to make the kind of plug-in hybrids GP is talking about, we already did. For people who have the occasional long range / frequent short range pattern, unfortunately, today, a gas car is the better value proposition. A small electric-first plug-in hybrid could be a good alternative. Probably not in the future, but some people need a car today, and for most of them, it will be a gas car.

GPT3.5 turbo almost got it for me, sort of did but

"If Shape A is red and Shape B is a different color, one possible color for Shape B could be blue. However, it's important to note that the color of Shape B could be any color other than red. Without further information or constraints, there is no definitive answer for the color of Shape B."

Not that it matters a ton here, I'm just surprised that 3.5turbo had issues with it at all.
The types of errors seem like they could be more critical, and maybe anecdote for myself, but I've noticed that I've parsed through some incredibly dubious fabricated answers that I missed on my first glance. LLM fan too, but I wouldn't want this going anywhere near Healthcare (even if just scribing) anytime soon.
You are being downvoted but I agree, what's with people spelling it mastadon? That's not even how it's pronounced (in my English but non American country, at least), so is it a language thing? Is mastadon a real word in some languages?
Partly due to the stringent Japanese copyright laws that hindered their progress in technology development, such as search engines, they found themselves falling behind and allowing outsiders to gain control. Undoubtedly, they wanted to avoid repeating that mistake, which likely explains their current situation.

> > You consume it by trading

Hence the SEC is right to clampdown on crypto for violations of securities law, in order to prevent bubbles that emerge when the only use for something is trading it for something else. We already have that, people who want to participate in that game know where to go, the stock market.

> > for a direct analog to your example, by showing off your wallet balance

That's the most circular thought I've ever heard.
> if there is any advantage to JPEG XL over WebP or [AVIF]

Of course there is. Better compression than WebP, and unlike AVIF, it supports progressive decoding, which is super important for users on a slow network. Although AVIF can sometimes produce 50% smaller size files than WebP, many site owners will opt for WebP anyway because it has progressive image decoding, so their website will display something while an image is nothing rather than nothing until the whole image is loaded. With that said, JXL achieves comparable compression to AVIF, and it suffers way less from generation loss, too.
It’s kind of interesting that the “commonwealth” countries (AU/NZ/GB/CA) have different classifications of crypto (AU/NZ treat them as property, CA as securities, GB varies depending on the thing).

The SEC filings do give the rationale for why specific coins are securities though.

Hard to summarize each filing though. Worth reading because, unfortunately (?), they make a good case.

I love working with ICU nurses. Generally speaking they are are very competent and very much respect their scope (both physicians and nurses overstepping is a recipe for disaster) so it's an incredibly healthy and collaborative relationship.

> I'm always a little surprised when she talks about calling the doctor saying I need X, Y and Z and the doctor just being like cool I'll put in the order.

This is the best part. A lot of decisions like sleeping aids, antipsychotics, antiemetics don't have evidence to choose from the various options so it's a bit of trial and error. An ICU nurse typically covers 1-2 patients and knows them very well, so if the recommend/ask for something it's usually the right decision and reduces the cognitive burden on the physician. We obviously still do a safety/sanity check but ballpark estimate I'd say I disagree or order something else < 5% of the time.

Similarly I'd say the proportion of bullshit overnight pages (e.g. I fondly remember a 4am call that a patient has leg cramps) I've received from ICU nurses are even less than that.

General ward nurses on the other hand... A very heterogeneous bunch with high turnover (worse in academia, at my last hospital average career length was ~2 years before they leave for greener pastures) so the relationship is very different.

Not that I don't appreciate them or their work, but far less trust in decision making and they need more oversight.

The concatenation of niche content markets that Reddit grew on is giving way to decision making that will favor the center rather than the edge. Almost everyone will buy vanilla and be satisfied. Very few will buy anchovy, and those that do LOVE it... but at scale you have to favor the vanilla buyer.

Analysis of tumor progression in patients with glioma after Covid-19 infection
Inference can be done on CPU+RAM, but it is much slower (like tens of seconds per token). So reducing the amount of memory used by model during training would reduce the number of compute operations potentially could make CPU+RAM more suitable for fine tuning within reasonable amount of time too.
Basically 12x less GPU memory requirement also translates to 12x less compute operations (doing compute on CPU allows less parallelism them on GPU).

The paper doesn’t focus on CPU or GPU training time improvements - I’d assume there is no significant improvement in GPU training case. For CPU it is logical to expect 12x training speed improvement, but it is still too slow to be consistent practically useful.
IMO if Reddit manages to bring itself down with all of these actions it will be a net good for society.

Somehow, it's always skipped when people discuss the evils of social media referencing Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and TikTok but IMO Reddit has been just as bad if not worse for misleading information.

Let’s be real here this system is flawed at its core though. This can’t even handle the load of some moderately popular PHP forums with simple deployment or even this site nothing took decades to harden. And this is due to gross flaws in architecture, IMNSHO.

Hmmm, I don't get that. Apple builds personal computers. That has been there mission from day one. This is easily the most personal computer they have ever created. I don't see how it could be more Apple.
Not even necessarily "later". They showed that the visionOS already supports existing Continuity and SharePlay functionality in iOS/iPadOS applications, which are features already built for sharing views of the same apps across devices and/or between people. It's somewhat limited which applications support those APIs today, but it is still an interesting amount more than "nothing".

(ETA: That seemed a subtle theme across the WWDC keynote to me, as increased SharePlay support in first-party apps and select third-party partners was many of the things they demoed across the iOS, iPadOS, Car Play, and macOS updates.)

The problem is, that's actually sort of the best-case scenario. Obviously, the protests and insanity of that situation would cause it to be quickly scrapped.

The more insidious issues is you have a sub-population of students that write in the "wrong" way. That means the average student might never get a strike, but this unlucky sub-population might get multiple strikes. That would seem to point to the results being "correct" -- after all, you'd expect a cheater to cheat multiple times.

If this population skew is significant enough -- say, 1% of the population writes in the "wrong" way, and the multiplier effect is 10x as strong for them -- you might never get a flag for a normal student. But what you're measuring is not cheating, but deviation from the norm in writing style.
I've been pretty anti-Apple for a long time. Look me up, I've been using the same handle forever, and I'm sure I've talked shit about it publicly over the decades. I've always lamented their proprietary connectors and formats, the premium they charge, and perhaps worst of all, their seemingly mindless fans. I've been using Microsoft as my daily driver OS since moving away from a TI-99/4A.

When I changed jobs in late 2020, I got to keep the 2015 Macbook Pro that I used for work. I'd been using a Mac since the company switched to Ruby on Rails, while continuing to run a Windows machine for things like gaming, video editing, Photoshop, etc.

By 2021, the battery on this 2015 Macbook Pro was noticeably swelling. I decided to try my luck, and took it to the Apple Store in Philadelphia, where they looked up the serial number, collected the machine, and a few days later, notified me that my battery had been replaced, free of charge. Because of the design of the MBP, this meant replacing the keyboard and all that surrounded it. Physically, it was like a new machine. This is on a machine that I hadn't even bought.

My understanding is that it's kind of a crap shoot. For known issues like the 2015 battery, there are typically windows of time when they'll fix the problem for free. I was well past that window. I was actually willing to pay for a battery replacement - until the debut of M1 architecture, the 2015 15" MBP was the best of the before-times - so I was pleasantly surprised that I got so much refurbishment for just showing up to the store.

Think it through. Yes, both you and xe haven't grasped this. M. Siebennmann's scenario is that argc is 0, and argv[0] is NULL. There's nothing in the quoted

> argv[argc] shall be a null pointer.

constraint that that violates. argv[argc] is a null pointer. You have not found a violation of that constraint.

The constraint that is violated is, rather, in the Single Unix Specification. It's the SUS that puts the constraint upon how execve() may be invoked by a strictly conformant application, and requires that (as it says twice) argc be "one or greater", because it constrains the first element of the argument vector to be a pointer to a string, not a null pointer. The _only_ leeway is the wiggle room in "associated with", which it devotes an entire paragraph to explaining.

More than one standard applies. The idea that only the C standard covers the writing of these programs is wholly wrongheaded. After all, the C standard also allows non-POSIX implementations.

Thanks for the link. I'm not impressed by the effect at first sight. I certainly wouldn't want to exclude anything based on it. I mean, it's 13% more on Monday, which makes it "significant", but if you subtract the 3.1% you mention, you get close to the Sunday fraction, which isn't significant (p>0.05, which is a lousy statistic anyway). While it looks there's something going on, it's not enough to ignore the effects of data manipulation.
