I think the article makes a good point, and implies another. The point was “who under age x watches tv” where x is 40, 50 or so. Most people, including this old fart, consume their news on-line from closer to the source. CNN reads like People used to and seems an aggregator more than an originator.

Secondly, there really isn’t a middle anymore in the us as far as anybody can tell. Part of the remaining tv crowd watches or surfs Fox News. They’re not going anywhere except maybe deeper into the woods. If you don’t address the other side, as it were, what’s your point? And, given that the us “left” is right-centre compared to western countries, there’s not much built in audience for cnn. Those centre to left have other sources on line or maybe on tv.
I did't do their math.

The people I know that are doing this seem to do well.

I do not know if that is because of the low mortgage rates up until last year or if they have some other secret, like only buying houses they can get a positive cash flow from.

I read this by Dana Blankenhorn this morning which I think a few people in France need to read.

This AI Boom Will Bust | The Slope of Enlightenment is Coming

https://danafblankenhorn.substack.com/p/this-ai-boom-will-bu...

'In the end today’s AI boom is an evolution. It evolves from the huge databases built by the Cloud Czars, from the technology used to search those data stores, and from the ability of Graphics Processing Units to turn out results quickly.'

The French like to go in early in tech, minitel is a good example, but they almost invariably get leapfrogged by subsequent waves.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minitel

In the AI era who owns the data and data sanctity is an upcoming legal quagmire that the big players will win. I don't see France ever being a big player in this world.

Can someone in India recommend me a cost comparative to lead acid batteries for home use?

I want a 5-10-15kwh pack but a 5kwh lead acid would cost inr 80-90k while lithium would be double.

Sure lithium has more life but warranty wise every seller only says 3-5 years. Same as lead acid so why bother with more expensive?
It's getting worse by the minute, too. What used to be a subreddit might now be a Discord server, which is in my opinion even worse, keeping solutions/questions to certain issues within Discord's own walls.

You now have to enter a server, search for your specific problem, and, if not found, ask someone and wait for them to respond. If results are on the first page of google it's much more friction-less and convenient imho.
I think you’re absolutely right. Some of the things I’ve been most proud of have been products of stubbornly refusing to give up. On the other hand, some vast oceans of wasted time have been another result. It’s tricky to know when to be tenacious!

Hey!

I recommend checking out Spacelift[0]. It's a CI/CD system specialized for Infra as Code, including Terraform and Pulumi. We have both a ton of additional features, as well as a much more reasonable pricing model, so we've recently been talking a lot to folks wanting to migrate from TFC due to the changes you've mentioned.

You can easily reach out to us on the website by scheduling a demo, using the chat widget, or just sending me an email (see my profile).

I think we’ve all worked with people that fall into these when it comes to PR time.

Smart and energetic - "I think this covers everything functionally and I’ve added a couple of extra unit tests for the functions I had to refactor”

Smart and lazy - "This covers everything but I’ll add the unit tests in a follow up PR shortly" [never happens]

Dumb and energetic - "Can you review this ASAP please, it’s only small, shouldn’t have any bugs or issues. I just need to get this in because <manager> is looking for this feature ASAP. I will fix any issues in a follow up PR." [prod issue w/ feature after go-live]

Dumb and lazy - <Raises PR, fails CI tests, doesn’t respond to any feedback for a week> [feature 3 weeks late]

I have nothing to base this on, but I suspect kids do better because they lack experience, so there is nothing to resurface. Their lack of memories prevents any sort of introspective reevaluation of their life.
Is there something special about memory, or is it just another tool for consciousness?

It seems like consciousness is the conductor and puts to use whatever it has access to (motor function, sensory inputs, memory). Any of those can be significantly impaired (limbs/senses lost, imperfect memory) and the conductor simply adapts and focuses on what remains.

I divide my officers into four classes as follows: the clever, the industrious, the lazy, and the stupid. Each officer always possesses two of these qualities. Those who are clever and industrious I appoint to the General Staff. Use can under certain circumstances be made of those who are stupid and lazy. The man who is clever and lazy qualifies for the highest leadership posts. He has the requisite and the mental clarity for difficult decisions. But whoever is stupid and industrious must be got rid of, for he is too dangerous.
Virtually all of the cost of delivery is borne by the restaurants. So they can and will just pass the increased costs onto the restaurants and the consumer is unlikely to see any change.
> Life is too short to remember what each timezone name means and converting to it, UTC offsets are much easier on the mental calculator.

Many people also get the timezone names completely wrong. I've had multiple scheduling email exchanges where someone says X pm EST not realizing that at the time it's currently EDT and that EST ≠ EDT.

And yet, for some reason, the two-letter abbreviations (e.g., ET) that are technically correct year-round, never seem to have caught on in the wild.

I've given up on the abbreviations and just say "Eastern" now to avoid confusion.

Being an oldie, I have occasional colonoscopies in which I've always been anesthetized. My most recent one was a couple of years back. I'm not sure what happened, but during the procedure (after evidently going under), I was fully conscious of everything that was going on. I couldn't move and had no feeling for what was happening, but I could hear the doctors talk and could tell what was happening. It was much like a dream, but the most vivid dream one could imagine.

I wonder if Google wants to prioritize video to try to address this spam problem.

Sometimes when I search a topic all I get is video in the natural results, not a video search, and I suspect I'm part of an A versus B test.

Yes, typically rooftop solar doesn't output when the grid is down. If the inverter doesn't get an AC sinus at 60 or 50 Hz, it won't do anything by default. Some systems can, in a so called 'island mode'.

But this is so that they don't supply power when eg an electrician flips a breaker to safely do work. Then better not have the system still energized by solar...

I guess the risk with smaller, plug in systems is that they're simpler without such precautions? And you would have 2 live prongs sticking out, which would be bad of course
> There are plenty of engineers and doctors on reddit answering nuanced questions that arent talked about in any journals.

There are lots of really good subreddits that have expert feedback, but I think the issue is that going through all that and separating the wheat from the chaff is going to be a much more involved process than feeding in those other sources of expert opinion.
I wish we had more details, but something stinks. There's always a conflict with "science" when somebody tries to monetize it. A possible explanation here is a desire to keep some elements of the process proprietary, but I don't see how that could apply to sharing within the same organization.
Paying people who aren't doing any work is generally the cost of providing 24/7 service coverage for a business, yes. Many people hired to do night shift have very little to do for most of the night.

Centralization was always inevitable with scale.

New users aren't going to spend the same amount of time and brainpower managing their internet presence as OGs do/have. So they will choose the services that enable them to reduce the overhead of using the internet. For many, this doesn't just mean using Reddit for their interest-based communities, but using Gmail for spam prevention, Apple products for their curated store, Steam for ease of access, etc.

This would only be solvable if you had government-forced interop so that e.g. Twitter posts were accessible on Mastodon timelines with no cost to the site operators, but even then any small barrier is something for a platform to optimize and sell in the form of a subscription/using their user base for ads.
Atmospheric distortion looking down is not as severe as it is looking up. This is because the distortion subtends much greater angles looking up than looking down, since the distortion is close to the observer. Looking down, it’s also true that, at least in daytime, exposures are very short as well by virtue of the earth being very bright.
Because that's always worked out soooo well in the countries which tried that model.
I'm not sure how much of the image processing for AR passthrough, environment recognition and spatial placement of app windows is actually done on the GPU. I would expect at least some of it has to be done on the CPU.

Additionally, laptops are rarely known for stellar GPUs, so I'm also expecting some need to offload GPU work to the CPU, at least in terms of power and thermal budget.
We need as many options so that this market can get jump started. My risk adverse brain wins out over my nerd brain on this one. I love the idea but want a professional product that isn’t priced by space karen so affordability can increase.

The proprietary offering does come with moderation built-in to some extent but that is not the same thing as saying that it will lie. An open GPT model will just focus on what the training data informs it of, and as the training data improves its description of how the world works will become more precise. You can ask ChatGPT for sources and to show work. Will it hallucinate from time to time? If the data is incomplete or there are gaps in information flowing to ChatGPT, yes. That is nowhere near the same thing as straight up being told the wrong information by human beings knowingly.

The reason this is relevant is because the reply up above said we don't need LLMs or GPT-4 for what I mentioned about rapid learning sans bloated bureauracy and lying bureacrats. This is way more common and likely in the existing world, particularly since humans have incentives to lie and are protected by the false light of a bureaucracy that is more interested in its own preservation instead of allowing itself to be obviated by new tech.
Yeah, but I imagine bored teenagers are not patrolling the embedded subreddit.
I struggle to find the right word for this, but I find that Redditors with 10K+ comment karma have an "attitude" that pervades how they respond on virtually every topic. There's this sense of faux-civility and if you have an opinion that slights them in some way the mask comes off and you end up with hostility or sardonic replies that completely misconstrue your point. Then there tends to be a dogpile with downvotes.

Yes, I know reddit can be valuable for niche and non-contentious topics but such examples are becoming increasingly rare. Snark and combativeness pervades the site and it seems to be a function of the voting system and monkey-see, monkey-do from how commenters are rewarded in the default subreddits for this kind of behavior.

I dread AI models being taught to comment like a redditor.

VS Code developed LSP to let them support as many languages as possible. Now other editors can use LSP to leverage all that work.

What do you mean deliberate? If GPT has a bias it it likely just reflecting latent imbalances in the training data due to extant imbalances in public opinion, not some overlord in a dark closet turning a dial between left and right wing. As the saying goes, "reality has a liberal bias".
On the Windows side there were a bunch of editors that had similar features or had already solved the issues BBEdit solved for Mac users. It was popular, but not ubiquitous the way BBEdit was.

I agree. But we should make them nonexistent by giving better options to their workers. (I assume that workers would not take sub-living-wage jobs if living-wage jobs were available to them.)

PG&E offers plans where off-peak rates are substantially cheaper than peak. So, for example, currently Peak rates are 56 cents/kWh while off peak are 25 cents/kWh.[0]

Not sure if the economics will work out, as in a really long ROI for most people, but even without Solar some of these battery packs can potentially time-shift power for homes, reducing effective rate to be the off-peak rate.

Likely the 3 founders have 12% each (after a 4 year vest) and the remainder (21%) goes to the option pool.
It's getting easier to counteract though.

Software development is easier than ever, CPU power and bandwidth are quite cheap, and there are working federated structures like Mastodon.

There's no reason why Reddit couldn't be turned into a federated system as well, in fact it almost is one as it is. Eg, just like on Mastodon servers can choose whether to interact with each other, on Reddit it's not uncommon to get auto-banned from somewhere if you post in a subreddit they dislike.
