Well people listening to the audio book:

- can’t hear the differences in spelling between American and British English

- are listening to someone read. That person probably is able to read either American or British English.

That said, some words really are different and could cause confusion/disconnect so probably are potential candidates for being changed even in audio books.

- the one he gave “apartment” vs “flat” is a good example. I think British people would all be fine with “apartment” whereas I think “flat” might confuse some Americans who hadn’t heard that usage.

- “pavement” means the road surface in the US vs it means the pedestrian path on the side of the road in the UK (that in the US you would call a “sidewalk”). “Sidewalk” wouldn’t confuse a British person but it’s not a word a British person would use. “Pavement” meaning the road surface does confuse British people.

- “jumper” in the UK vs “sweater” in the US

- Don’t even ask about “pants”

- etc
No it's not.

Sometimes shifts in money flow happen alongside inflation, but inflation itself acts as a tax on savings and has basically no other long-term effect. In the long term inflation will make prices double and wages double and the effect is nothing. There's no actual difference between a $2 big mac and a $20 big mac.

What you're describing is changes in productivity and spending and overhead, not inflation.
I spent over a month with my family recently and it hasn't helped this time.

I don't think withdrawal is an issue. I drastically cut down my drinking 9 months ago and since 4 months I'm 100% sober. Frankly, I expected more from sobriety.

If you're talking about the author of OP, I'm guessing he uses the AirGradient sensors, since he made them :)

I like them enough I'm now up to four in my home. They did send two for evaluation initially (I did a video on them last year) but I liked them and bought more. I reflash them to ESPHome so I can easily pop them into Home Assistant.
pfft like crypto its attracting the biggest blowhards and scam artists in the land. And therefore like crypto expect a few bankruptcies and ceo's in jail. Thats the main thing thats going to happen by 2030.

People and their 3 inch chimp brains arent getting smarter or more creative by 2030. What did George Lucas do once an army of talent fell in his lap? Nothing great.
Actually doctors would be universally happy to get more help and support to deliver better healthcare. That you don't talk about that is quite telling, or is that what you mean by 'regulation'?

Casting the patient doctor relationship in terms of power dynamics is a bogus sociological construct divorced from reality. The true division of power is between those who fund healthcare and those who receive it, I would start there if you think things need to be improved.
My three AirGradient DIY units are going strong. They seem very accurate -- strongly correlating with nearby weather stations and online services. Definitely nice to have high-granularity/accuracy details both indoors and outdoors. It's also really interesting to see different "trends" and how different weather conditions correlate with (and/or affect) air quality!
> Crypto advocates misinterpret this as a technological failing or gap.

This is usually the problem with any crypto idea. They fail to distinguish between people problems and technology problems. Ticketmaster ain’t charging hidden bullshit fees because their database somehow forces them to.
Do you have an example? Never heard of that, only the opposite.
It's probably true that you'd be financially equivalent, but some people don't prefer to move with little notice due to rental changes forced upon them.

I suppose if you account for this extra cost (which may be non-monetary, but one can always assign the inconvenience using a dollar figure...) then renting could be worse off.
reference data members are generaly A Bad Thing (your design is probably wrong) - the main purpose of references is to serve as function parameters and/or return types.

if you need a reference-like member, use a pointer.
Thinking of it as our planet to lose has a lot to do with how we got to where we are. That's not a safe habit for humans to have.

Have you used Bing? It's great for stuff up until a few days ago (not necessarily today's news), powered by GPT-4, and the results have been consistently much better than Bard for me.
I'm beginning to think Richard Stallman was correct about everything.
I've never owned any crypto. I'm changing my tax residence for legitimate reasons. (Hardest thing I've done in my life!)

But I suppose some crypto owners are changing their tax residence without declaring their crypto i.e. no deemed disposal and exit tax.
A "person" can't sell a naked option, this can only be done by bigger companies with a margin account, and will be margin-called when the price approaches the strike price.

The point is, should call options used for hedging regulated as insurance?
My experience of programming as a Junior Software Engineer in the '90s was replacing inner loops with inline assembly, avoiding cache misses (keep your code in the L1 cache) and making sure your memory accesses stayed on one page. Nobody seems to care even in the slightest about this stuff anymore, and the abysmal performance of modern software shows it.

During the last 30 years, everyone's focus has drifted up the stack, to higher and higher levels of abstraction and higher and higher level languages, to the point where we are totally divorced from the electrons and realities of the underlying hardware.
Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to ignorance.

I was glad to see that the PurpleAir PA-II sensor (which I have outside and refer to often during wildfire season) has relatively good performance, at least for PM1.0 and PM2.5.

PM1.0 R2 > 0.96, PM2.5 R2 > 0.93

The Bitcoin p2p interface is quite excellent. Literally all you need to do is download a wallet, the overwhelming majority of which are open source, and then generate an ID which is also done with the press of a button. And that's it. Give that ID to somebody and they can send money to you which will momentarily show up in your account. Vice versa, for sending to somebody else.

In a world where people were using nothing but some sort of a peer-to-peer currency this system would be unbelievably amazing. The reason exchanges exist is because fiat currencies still exist, and so there's a lot of demand for exchanging between peer-to-peer currencies and fiat currencies.
The Canada market and buying power is so small it’s mostly irrelevant in economics discussions
Incorrect - I'm clearly using delineate to mean providing the exact set of computational instructions which produce the output (image), which by the definition of "computable" must be true.

You seem emotional, "you sound stupid and nothing what you said makes sense", I wonder, why are you so triggered by a challenging idea?

The very point of computation is to evaluate clear, distinct, mathematical expressions (like reading a list of algorithmic steps to produce an NN).

Hmmm. Did I threaten your religious belief in the power of AI? :)
Uh, that's clearly an outlier. None of the other dozens of sensors around it are registering anything higher than 42.
How do you bootstrap it? You get robbed at gunpoint by some ruffians and they take your wallet, cellphone, keys, and laptop. Hopefully they can't get into your accounts, but never mind that, how do you get back in to everything?
There are pills for beauty. Look at Kylie Jenner, you think that's all natural? In fact I'd say you have less control over intelligence then you do over beauty.

I haven't yet looked into the inner mechanics of passkeys, and the link only talks about the first login. What is the experience like when a user wants to log in from a different system? They press the "Login with Passkey" button on Device 2, and then...?
> The official app collects far more data points to identify users for ad targeting than the third party clients do (check the permissions asked

I jusy checked the iOS app’s permissions. It asks for no permissions outside of live activities, for integration with Siri, notifications and background app refresh.
Lol, you are calling an act of rebellion a crime.

Now I am begining to understand why people like Moral Relativism, it gets them gotcha moments on internet.
This sounds counter productive.

Third party authentication providers are a single point of failure, and usually they themselves require a password to authenticate you anyway.

If your gmail password is hacked, then effectively all your accounts on websites that use Google auth are also hacked.

Passkeys appear to also be handled by central services? At least that appears to be the case with Apple, according to the link in the post:

https://developer.apple.com/passkeys/

I personally think having a browser-managed "private key" (the same kind used for ssh auth) would be better, but now as a user you have to manage the multiple private keys you have associated with an account; a totally confusing concept for the average user.
If you're trying to track someone who doesn't leave their house, don't you already know where they are?
The misunderstanding here is that I am referring to getting Linux GPGPU to work in the first place, not porting the code itself. Presumably they are suggesting that one of us Linux weirdos who already have gotten ROCm and/or CUDA working could do it with relative ease. That said, I have not attempted to verify the veracity of that assertion, but I think it's what they meant.

Though even if they could just do it, and have everything they need to do it, that doesn't mean they're lying. It really could just not be a priority.
PMS9003M is $15 shipped, add another $6 for an Arduino and a display.

You can bet the $1000 ones are Better Technology Through Beautiful Marketing and Design(tm). Anyone who pays that deserves to be separated from their money.
Great timing on empires who sacrifice children. Today this article about Instagram facilitating child sex trafficking was released. https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/instagram-facilitates-vast...
Mel Gibson is about to release a four part documentary about child sex trafficking and sacrifice. I expect to see a bunch of reminders of how Mel is antisemitic and such to gatekeep people from watching it.
But no more than they are the gatekeepers of your password when you use their keyboard software, right?

Terraform Core is open source and free. TFE and Terraform Cloud (aside from the capped free version) are not.

Terraform still needs bit of help when you want to run production grade:

state-locking (dynamodb)
state-storing (s3)
workspace/template management
CI/CD functions (atlantis)
secret management (vault)

and TFE gives you these right out of the box in a neatly packaged way. Of course, you can come up with different tools to meet those reqs (parenthesized above)
I'm pretty sure passkeys are just a rebranded version of virtual WebauthN tokens.

So while passkey secrets can be synced (unlike U2F physical tokens) they can also be implemented as being backed by a physical token (think Yubikey) that never goes om the cloud.
It presents a qr code you can scan with the other device. You can try it on https://passkeys.io
Regardless of how much you trust them, the fact that they can force a decryption of these keys (and selectively, per-user, no less) means that you are not in custody of your own authentication identity. Add to that, they can be legally compelled to take such a measure (and I'm sure they will in due time).

Compared to using, say, KeepassXC with a unique, secure password per vault. Now you can sync on iCloud or google drive, but neither Google nor Apple can decrypt the vault; the keepassXC maintainers presumably could make a malicious update (which you'd still have to accept, since the updates aren't forced on you), but that would also affect the security of everyone using KeepassXC (and potentially be much more harmful to the economy and society as a whole than the government is willing to accept in order to get intel on an individual person of interest)
> I have already had several malicious login attempts

Doesn't that mean they know your username and password? How does that happen so easily.
And many countries are moving in that direction, so what's your point?
I blame most of this on the rise of suburbs. There are so few places for children to hang out. Car-centric infrastructure that forces kids to sit inside results in this. Bad for adults too.
Just a side note, what you're doing sounds like a violation of the FFmpeg license. https://www.ffmpeg.org/legal.html
Maybe I focused too much on the terms. They certainly don't think of the word puzzle, but they do treat them as that.

Someone playing Zelda doesn't go into it ever expecting Ganondor to try to win. The player either solves the game, or they stop playing. But they can't lose, which is why I called it a puzzle.

In comparison to something like Chess AI where the computer agent is actually trying to win and make you lose.

So you'd find players asking whether it's single or multiplayer and competitive or casual and so on and they're really trying to place the game in that categorization. Is this game just a series of challenges for me, or are there opponent agents trying to win.
Sorry to hear you have suffered poor quality interactions with doctors. Being honest, if there is no trust in the relationship between patient and doctor, then nothing else matters much as the experience will be poor on both sides.

Patient can of course bring whoever they want into the circle. The problem is the intrusions that neither healthcare provider nor patient want.
Yeah I think my point flew over your head, which is fine.

And you're incorrect - you cannot "empirically prove creativity". As a professional artist I don't think you quite understand that the type of creativity we are interested in is not just "permutation", there is clearly a human component.

I'm trying to show you that you are falling into the reverse of the AI effect by assuming that permutation is creativity.
WSL for Unix compatible applications and not having to rely on brew, which is basically curl | sh for hipsters. Thirty years of backwards compatible apps. Thirty years of backwards compatible APIs. Doesn't ban you from their stores on a whim. Doesn't need a store even. Has a more sensible filesystem and organisation than MacOS (which is pretty damning considering how bad NTFS is). Actively, technically superior on every front then it comes to kernel or APIs, more hardened than anything Apple has ever put out.

MacOS is a toy.
Auto-generated password via a password manager are more secure, convenient, and portable then passkeys and oidc.
Currently 480 in the area of Philly my parents live.
You can use 3rd party password managers to sync your passkeys however you please.

Once again since you missed the entire point: I don't believe creativity is non-physical, I believe it is non-systematizable, and my brother achieving a PhD in computational neuroscience from a top university actually initially shared this with me.
Heavy industry. Manufacturing, mining etc. This stuff isn't always in the flashiest locations and wfh is bad form in my experience, but it is certainly critical. There are all sorts of custom systems keeping track of (and tying together) high value physical processes.
10 years ago I used to hold the concept of 'accredited investor' in disdain. It's largely just creating a giant paywall (or at least wealthwall) preventing lower income individuals from accessing some of the most potentially lucrative ventures. But yeah, the past ten years of seeing people decide to go buy BTC on news of "BTC reaches record high! It's going to to the Moon!" and then decide to go sell it on news of "BTC is crashing! This is the end!", and then [loudly] complain about losing money, or even that it's all a scam, has really made me change my mind and, in part, my worldview.
The point is not that she wasn’t as famous in Brazil. The point is that she was paid only $120 after performing the version of the song that became famous worldwide.

Also, the article states that she consciously avoided performing in Brazil.
I've been looking for an inexpensive PPS with heat exchanger that fits in a window (preferably an Andersen window, the kind that opens sideways, but maybe that's too much to ask). Since there don't seem to be any on the market (for any kind of window) I'm working on a design of my own. I think that two CPU coolers connected by their CPU plates with one pushing air out and one drawing air in would make a cheap heat exchanger. Then possibly running a large hose from the outflow of that to the air intake on a small HEPA air purifier would create a simple, cheap PPS. I know the pressure would not be high inside the house, but it would be a cheap way to introduce fresh air without losing heat/cooling and would help create a small positive pressure, without having to cut big holes in the walls.
I put that in quotes because I didn't want to emphasize the terminology but maybe it didn't work. Whatever they call them, players treat games with equal opponents who can win, and games that are only a series of challenge entirely differently. The issue I'm talking about is developers trying to insert competitive agents into games which gamers expect to be a series of challenges.
Technologically there's nothing really bad about them (imagine a managed version of ssh keypairs). Technically they could even be backed by physical devices like Yubikeys and never touch the cloud.

My worry is the actual implementation, where platforms might lock you into their cloud as the sole provider simply by not implementing interoperability...
Indeed. In a coffee shop, it's considered rude to talk on a phone at full volume. In an open office, it's absolutely "fine" for some reason.
There's a bunch but a lot of them are going to have something like this plantower sensor:

https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256801607354554.html

It's a off the shelf part easily manufactured and possibly also easily calibrated.

As a bonus you can hook it up to a Raspberry Pi or ESP32 board if you want.
I am not saying the threat is idle. I am saying the action is unwarranted, the performative play is real for all levels. Sundar is larping as a leader. He is at best a substitute teacher.
They're effectively the same process occurring to different degree. A high side is what you get when you arrive at a point of unrecoverable inflection in such a wobble.
Here's the data for the Bay Area from 2020 - which was considered a particularly bad year for wildfire smoke, and is also the most recent year it's caused particular problems here.

What the real hell? I would report most well off people for dodging taxes, I would never report someone for drugs.
They said login attempt, not successful login. So no.
Wow, problem solved!
Nope, the market is still closed. Firstly, it's against terms and conditions to release your game with that tool and they still want to force you to port it to Metal. It's a developer toolkit to help migrate.

Also, game developers have been burned time and time again by Apple's inability to have a stable API + forced updates to the new crappy API, so no, they still won't port.

Third Party Ads

We didn’t know how prevalent 3rd party ads were on 3rd party apps – they’re trouble for us.
When people see their ads next to the wrong content, they don’t get mad at the 3rd party app, they get mad at us. We can’t ensure brand safety due to the ad networks many 3rd party apps use, which aren’t strong on privacy and tracking.

Awesome. So first party ads are made at the personal responsibility of reddit gods so there is no way malicious or bad actors or wrong people will get to show ads. Its only third party ads which will pollute the whole ecosystem if they are allowed to be shown.

Fuck them.

I've been a redditor for a decade. I can't jump away soon enough. They want to give "mod tools" so essentially give free mods more tools to sink their time and energy in while reddit earns from their generosity. Nice business model.

You do your work, I'll collect the cheque.
I think it is New Hampshire with the law, but they may not be alone now. Nevada passed a law of their own as I recall.
I understand the high bar that people set for situations like this. I am a geophysicist by education. It wasn't clouds. They've seen a lot of clouds and stars etc. and grew up around machines and animals.

I left out some of the details on purpose since the whole story is not mine to tell. They told me because they knew that I had done a lot of reading about the subject when other friends had something odd happen to them and they hoped that my physics studies would help them understand some of it better.

Some things are just unexplainable with our conventional knowledge. Over time that should/could change. If we already knew everything there would be no more need for science as curiosity about unfamiliar things could be satisfied by a simple query of existing knowledge. It would be a boring reality with no novelty or mysteries. In the worst case, a small group of people would control access to knowledge, withholding key information that would empower the rest of the people by helping them understand how all the mysteries of the world fit together to form our boring reality where every question has a clear, unique answer. Luckily we are nowhere near that point and there are many things left to be discovered.
> What pumped storate? Everybody is already about maxed out on hydro capability.

You are making the common mistake of assuming pumped hydro must, like primary hydro, be built on rivers. But pumped hydro just requires two reservoirs near each other with a vertical offset (although one can imagine repurposing an existing on-river reservoir by adding a separate off-river reservoir nearby at a different altitude; any reservoir with a sizeable hill nearby would do.) They could be built anywhere that isn't flat, even in deserts.

This web site uses geographical data to find PHES opportunities around the world. The possibilities are enormous.

https://re100.eng.anu.edu.au/global/

As an example, here's a facility being built near Ely, Nevada. Look how arid the area is. This facility is sized to provide 1000 MW of output for 8 hours. At $2.5B, the cost of the project is ~$316/kWh of storage capacity.

https://www.powermag.com/major-pumped-hydro-storage-project-...

> What batteries? The world is barely producing enough for EVs and other stuff, there aren't enough GWhs available for utility storage.

You are again making a foolish argument that production of things cannot be increased. Please stop. One would almost begin to think you're arguing in bad faith here.
