The service/webserver is running on the device, and clients connect via let's say a cell phone to the devices wifi network. The client talks to the webserver via a wifi network from the device. I don't think there's any way to trick the client into thinking the device is localhost? Maybe some HSTS shenanigans?

I don't get it.

The M2 is 15W. There are mobile Ryzen APUs with the same TDP. They're about the same speed; maybe the M2 is a little faster for single thread and the PC is a little faster for multi-thread, it's not that different. You can get a PC laptop which is under 3 lbs and has 14+ hours of battery life.

You can also get a PC laptop which is heavier and has a shorter battery life because they have no qualms about selling you what amounts to a desktop CPU which is then something like 30% faster for multi-thread. But nobody forces you to buy that one.
Given how hard it is to do enterprise sales as a startup vendor, it's disappointing to think of some salesperson, repping a big brand, just doing a "numbers game" drive-by spray, and seeing what they hit.
Paris had it's first fully automated subway line in 1998.

Today there are 2 fully automated ones and one other mixing manual and automated.

The sofware was developped by Matra transport international (now Siemens Mobility).

It can even dynamically add/remove trains in service to best match the demand !

It also apparently uses a 48 bit cpu architecture.

It's a device for motivating horses to pull your carriage, which was high tech at one time but was obsoleted by the introduction of the motor car. It became a metaphor for technologies obsoleted by other advancements. The irony is that in the olden days, from my perspective, it would have been a massive pain in the ass to get one, because you'd probably have to mail a check to some Amish mail order company and wait a month, but now I can just click over to Amazon and get it in two days.
> his music, but with the Baby Got Back lyrics

Well, his version is slightly different. He says “Johnny C’s in trouble” where the original says “Mixalot’s in trouble” and I believe Glee used the Johnny C version. That’s probably not enough for a legal claim but it would have been classier either for them to use the original lyrics without his twist or give him at least a little bit of credit.
They don't work at all, there are no discrete GPU drivers for ARM macOS. The cooling solution and 1250W(!) power supply they carried over from the 2019 model are kind of hilariously overkill now, I don't think there's anything you still can install into the PCIe slots which comes even remotely close to needing them.
The problem with Tesla is the lack of LiDAR not training data.

You need to be able to accurately do bounding box detection in order to determine whether that billboard of a person is real or not or if that dog with a hat should be avoided.

Research has conclusively shown that vision only systems simply can't match LiDAR for this task.

Central servers managed by people again. Yeah they are federated but still rely on a bunch of institutions to throw some servers at it.
Just noticed that the forward for one of his books (mentioned in a peer comment) has an example of what I described above in Kaczynski's words...

"I simply have not had the time to organize, rewrite, and complete the contents of this book. The principal reason why I have not had time is that agencies of the United States government have created unnecessary legal difficulties for
me. To mention only the most important of these difficulties, the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of California has formally proposed to round up and confiscate the original and every copy of everything I have ever written and turn over all such papers to my alleged "victims" through a fictitious sale that will allow the "victims" to acquire all of the papers without having to pay anything for them. Under this plan, the government would even confiscate papers that I have given to libraries, including papers that have been on library shelves for several years..." [1]

I don't know how that turned out, though. He does mention his lawyers were fighting the plan. Also interesting that he keeps putting the word victims in quotes, in a book published in 2008.

The Lena image was clearly artistic. If you want to call it, additionally, "soft-core porn", then you would have to do the same with this statue:

The article contains some sexual context. And then you have no basis of treating David differently, except if you arbitrarily discriminate against one sex but not the other.

That's nonsense, you did nothing except defending the arguments about alleged sexism.

> In this case nobody banned anything

Completely false. There are journals which ban it, see Wikipedia article. Additionally there is now an indirect ban due to the campaign succeeding in creating a strong negative association, which makes using the image so costly that it isn't a live possibility anymore: https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/give-up-seventy-percen...

"Sounds like the Ukrainian people should have harbored a lot of resentment against the US for interfering with their democratic process, if true. Was that the case?"

Of-course, why did you think Donetsk and Luhansk regions held secession referendums in 2014 ?

"Maybe they should worry more about how to improve their own country and less about how to wreck everybody else's."

Why would Russia not interfere in their immediate neighbourhood in a nation filled with a large number of Russian ethnic people who were turned into second class pariahs thanks to US interference ?

Also..you must be joking about wrecking? Maybe the US should follow that advice first ? Pot/Kettle ? Look at Libya - a nation that used to have free healthcare, electricity and subsidized housing. Now brought to the stone age - famine and extreme poverty - all thanks to the manoeuvrings of the US statement department and NATO bombings.

HuggingChat with web search: Fetches Google results to aid model answers
The main problem, as with most centralized web services, is scale. In order to serve an increasing amount of users, the cost and complexity of maintaining the service grows exponentially. Most of the problems Big Tech is solving are related to scale.

What decentralization does is distribute this cost and complexity to more granular and manageable levels, so that instead of a single company having to carry the maintenance burden, a number of individuals or groups can do so instead. Of course, if the individual instance or whatever distributed unit grows too large itself, then you run into the same problem on a smaller scale. But it's more manageable, each instance can decide how it should be handled, and in practice most instances won't grow to have this problem.

That said, decentralization is not meant to solve the cost of running and maintaining infrastructure. That is an inescapable fact of the internet. What it does address is the problem of large companies controlling vast amounts of the internet, and getting to decide how information is shared online, and who gets to have a voice. Twitter and Reddit are prime examples of what we don't want to happen again, and there's no way to accomplish that with a centralized service.

I find it interesting that the Dock is what got copied rather than the much more long-standing (dating back to 1983 with the Apple Lisa) global menubar.

A lot of people are saying that the Dock is copied for the purpose of aesthetics, which may be true, but the aesthetic benefit of making the menubar global is arguably greater and comes with less of a functional tradeoff — it reduces the visual redundancy of duplicate window-attached menubars and gets you that clean look that GNOME and a lot of desktop apps are chasing these days, but without replacing proper menus with a messy "junk drawer" hamburger menu.

The Dock is fine, but I can take it or leave it. It's not really good enough to have strong feelings about. Not a huge fan of Win9X style taskbars either though, they get cluttered and unpleasant to scan very easily.

From the point of view of HN, it should be better to open in new window. That avoids users going out of your page.

However, as a blogger I have discovered the technical audience annoys enormously when links open in a new window. People get angry because you always have the shortcut to choose the new window if you indeed desire that.

So, to me, HN has decided to please its audience at the cost of loosing pageviews.

You quote part of a sentence about dolphins from the beginning of the transcript.

1. The context is Cowen posing a quirky, ice-breaker kind of question that entertain some counter-factual assumptions to get a conversation rolling. Not unusual in these kinds of pod conversations. The quirky setup and the laugh is evidence that strict realism about real world dolphins is not assumed by Singer and Cowen there. For example Cowen says "We explain to the dolphin that you’re Peter Singer, right?", but from Singer's other work it is clear that he doesn't think science into any dolphin so far has found cognitive capacity necessary to understand the concept of a well known academic moral philosopher who has written the kind of arguments Peter Singer is well known for. The best interpretation is that what is happening at the start of the conversation is merely a loose way to imagine and talk about an outside view on the harm humans do to other animals.

2. Setting 1 aside you ascribed a view about not just Dolphins but "anything non human" to Singer. What's your basis for that?

3. As for the "moral superiority" ascription, Singer imagining a dolphin asking him "Why have you failed to stop humans treating animals so badly?" doesn't imply that Singer thinks dolphins (in general, or that imagined kind) have "moral superiority". For one, real humans have already asked that question so the imaginary dolphin is at most on par, not superior, in asking it. Secondly a moral thinker (real human or imaginary dolphin) may be able to point out some moral problems or ask moral questions while at the same time be unable to refrain from harmful behaviour and unable to understand other moral problems, including those where they're themselves part of the problem. So nothing Singer says there implies that he thinks dolphins (real or imagined) are morally superior in the sense of never causing any harm or understanding all moral problems better than humans or anything like that.

(Actually the far better example is France - in principle, at the time, it was better obviously placed to achieve colonial domination than Spain or The Netherlands or even Great Britain. The argument seems to be that it was too focused on waging wars within Europe itself to commit itself to overseas exploration etc. But is that an "ultimate", proximate or some sort of intermediate cause?)

As long as AAA games are published on the Xbox Series S and shipping with graphics settings they will have no problem when running natively on an M2 chip.
Obviously they paid for the whole enchilada. My point is that last year only the richest megacorps could afford to run these models. The industry was self-selecting in their favor. I think no one predicted just how fast we would blow through those hardware barriers. And now they're scrambling to throw up new, regulatory barriers to maintain market share.

OpenAI's behavior is nothing more than rent-seeking. And I guess I'm just kinda tired of seeing all this discussion on the topic of licensing like its anything other.

The difference is that one religion is approved; the other, rejected.
The question that I think tells the kind of potential that ML has for music is, how good is written language in describing music? People here compare this to the development of Stable Diffusion, but the mediums are quite different. Describe your favorite shot in a movie and most likely you’ll enumerate and get pretty far in conveying it to someone who hasn’t seen it, at least the physical aspect of it. But try describing your favorite song and the interpretations will be wildly different (outside of hard defined genre music).
> 1. It has a higher CO2 footprint than small/medium EVs.

If mass transit _and_ also EVs are incentivized over petrol cars, that is not bad [1]

> 2. Transit forces people into smaller and denser housing, resulting in suboptimal living conditions.

My anecdotal experience is that areas around light rail stations gentrify and luxery style condominiums pop up like mushrooms around them. A 10 minute and consistent train ride into dowtown is compelling when that same journey can take 30 to 120 minutes by car (this is Seattle, it can take 20 minutes to just cross the U bridge and travel a quarter mile).

> 3. Buses in particular result in excessive road wear&tear.

If a bus is actually taking 50 cars off the road, and is traveling on lanes that are built for the excessive wear; then it is still a net benefit.

> "car owners should not get subsidized (by whom?)"

Point 3 discusses the wear and tear of roads. Drivers do not pay fully for the wear and tear of roads (and road construction, etc). Road funds come from many funds and car traffic does not generate enough in fuel and car-tab taxes to fully pay for roads. Hence, it is subsidized by other people that pay those taxes.

-----------

The comparison perhaps should not be also strictly of just buses against EVs.

Edit: sorry, that was a different experiment. The one that worked well was an address splitter, trained off Google Address Validator output, funnily enough. Still, the output JSON got prefixed with some of the address input.
