This made me chuckle, because I remember a few months ago when a fellow did an investigation into the mysterious erstwhile-country trio @taylorred. https://youtu.be/JAALDob9Ev0

Taylor Red is a country and western band consisting of identical redhead triplets, who haven't played a concert in years. They apparently run a content farm and a bizarre one at that. Every single one of their videos is a Short with the same title, "wait for it... :scared emoji: #shorts" and they do crazy nonverbal stunts on every one.

As near as this investigator guy could figure, this content farm is designed to have an international reach (therefore, no dialogue in English) and also to appeal to children (even the youngest nonverbal ones) with bright colors and amazing optical illusions.

Yet Taylor Red continues to hold themselves out as a country band. Who knows how this works? Gaming the algorithm FTW!
We had moved to fully typed python using mypy and ruff and using framework that highly benefit from it https://litestar.dev . It greatly improved our code quality , our understanding of python and how python work . At first it is tedious and felt over engineering but it's totally worth it.
"Thankfully" he says.

Now witness as Rust struggles to produce a compelling widgeting environment that isn't Qt or GTk bindings to other languages which support OO constructs. Witness as apparently creating a "Rust-friendly" OO paradigm or framework is an ongoing academic endeavor, because of this...

Believe it or not, for some domains, object-orientation is the right tool for the job... as some problems are just inherently modeled better with such a paradigm, and are able to take advantage of what it has to offer (encapsulation, polymorphism, inheritance).
Personally I rather die than kill a child, and SUVs are far worse in that regard. Despite making up 15% of accidents in this[1] study, they represent 25% of fatal accidents. A child is 8 times more likely to die if struck by an SUV according to the same study. Empirically, SUV front blind spots are crazy and if you have a young child ask them to stand in front of your car with measuring tape while you’re in it. Very easy to imagine pulling out without seeing them and crushing them to death. The problem is even worse if you have a short partner. I felt blind when I drove my dad’s.

Even if we go for the selfish perspective, rollover rates for SUVs are intrinsically higher, and it looks like the Hilux in particular hasn’t bothered fixing this design flaw in 9 years[2]. And that additional braking distance can be the difference between a massive headache from rear ending, or worse.

Driving defensively will increase your odds of survival per mile far more than any additional metal will.

>...that were up to 63% higher than average

"Up to" can cover a lot of sins. Does that mean one person had 63% higher than normal and the median daily-popcorn eater was 10% higher?
Sounds like a pretty nice achievement.

On another note, I'm increasingly amazed how researchers seem to persist in using ugly PDFs to publish their work. I cam understand e.g. biologists doing it, but when CS folks who should know alternatives do it, I'm evermore baffled, especially given the awkwardness of using e.g. LaTeX.
That's mainly because there was no mobile experience back then. Not one that involved a graphical display, anyway.

> but there's essentially no point in owning a hardware synth.

Not exactly. Some hardware synths are performance instruments in their own right. Something like the Expressive E Osmose, Roli Seaboard or Continuum Fingerboard are useful for their input capabilities, not for their synthesis methodology.

Also music is still often performed live and you're not going to get an organ's featureset out of software and a generic midi controller. The sounds, yes, but not the way you play it. There are ergonomic features to those kinds of hardware synths that are hard to replicate or even inferior when done with MIDI.

It's still cheaper.

A truck and trailer is nearly always less expensive re: total cost of ownership than a similar motorized setup. It would have cost about the same to buy a truck and trailer than a motor home, and they depreciate far less, and maintenance costs for less.

Your other car doesn't have anything to do with the cost savings. The cost savings exist before even assuming you get some other use or value out of the truck other than a tow vehicle
It does get easier: air popper. No burning to worry about, works perfectly every time.
I've wondered the same thing. I thought they would have to re-train it to respond differently to certain prompts -- aside from hardcoding responses to certain phrases, however, from how creative the DAN prompts have had to get it seems like the censorship is more intelligent than that.

I don't think it's the second answer, (adding pre-prompts before the user prompt), because when they do that, it's possible to hack it back to reading out the previous prompt - that's how we found out Bing was internally named Sydney. This would also reduce the number of tokens that could be input by the user.

I'd love to know the answer to this too.

I agree: It is mind-blowing -- the cost, but the science is also mind-blowing. This stuff really is science fiction. When I was a kid, I could never imagine it was possible. Think how primitive computers were 30 years ago. All of these bio-breakthroughs are impossible without staggering amounts of compute and improved laboratory hardware.

My thinking: How long for each divide-by-ten step? 1M USD today, 100K USD next, 10K USD later. At 10K USD, for these life threatening diseases, it is a drop in the bucket. Any insurance company would pay for it, because it would easily save many times more in avoided treatments for the illness.

Think about the revolution that 3D printers brought. I could see something similar for custom DNA vaccines. They should be targeting wealthy people who want cosmetic effects, like hair regrowth, less wrinkles, hormones like a 30 year old, etc. They can pay, and it will help to mature the industry and production pipeline.
This one threw me off as well. I didn't see any configuration so I just assumed that it was only 1 iteration by default. After being off by several orders of magnitude, I looked it up and apparently it defaults to 4096 iterations.

>Pretty sure all of the former colonies are independent nations by now, and have been for more than a generation.

Yes. And if someone breaks your legs, you should totally be able to run a marathon after, say, 15 years. After all, they haven't broke your legs for a while.

History and national development doesn't work like that. A major handicap can still keep you back for centuries.

It's even more than a handicap relatively too. It's not just that you were held down (and the other side neutral): the handicap for you was at the same time an enrichment off your back for the other side.

Even more more so, since "independent nations" is mostly a facade for the busines as usual, of neocolonialism: the same shit, but somewhat more convert (bribing politicians, setting up banana-republic conditions, if needed bringing in the army, supporting this or that dictator into power, and so on, and using monetary policy and foreign aid to make sure they never stand on their legs).
Framer motion is quite bad with drag events in responsive layouts that have drag boundaries. It requires workarounds that are quite finicky. In my experience it has some performance issues too in edge cases where Gsap just chugs along.

motion.one can only be used to animate node elements, not arbitrary data, so you’ll likely hit a wall eventually and then you’ll need to include another animation library on top.

They’re both great libraries but they’re certainly not the one stop shop that Gsap (with expensive plugins) has proven to be (coming from someone that hates their docs and api’s).
Exactly. Amen. GTk is the shining proudest most epic achievement of object-oriented C programming, and they still enjoy massive benefits in terms of being able to interop with every language ever because of this approach.

It is a quite long article. Almost at the bottom it gets around to this:

Which says: "Here’s where things get esoteric. As of January 1, 2020, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) put a limit on the sulfur content in shipping fuels, reducing the global upper limit on sulfur content from 3.50% to 0.50%. This policy is referred to as IMO 2020. Here is a link to an article describing this change. This reduced limit was mandatory and led to over a 75% drop in the emission of sulfur oxides. While great for the environment in many respects (e.g. less acid rain and ocean acidification), there was also a not-so-unexpected consequence."

A little more explanation and discussion of some other possibly contributing factors follow what I quote above.

Unfortunately I know all too well. And it's only a small part of my project (rpgplayground.com).

I wanted to have a GUI inside the game itself (so you can edit games while you play), but that means I had to develop my own GUI. I created simple game GUI's before, so I thought this wasn't a big of a deal. Oh boy was I wrong. A couple of buttons and textfields is very different from a full widget toolkit.

And then another thing: I originally developed RPG Playground in ActionScript3, so I latched on to the native textfield they provide. In fact, most GUI toolkits you see are able to make use of some native textfield functionality.

So after Flash was killed, I ported my product to Haxe. And then realized that I can't really latch on to any native textfield functionality. Yeah, you guessed it, I had to write my own textfield code: word wrapping, mouse handling, ... . That was another project in itself.
It's a value judgment based on behavior observed.

Motives are in the mind, they cannot be verified (even if explicitly stated by the actor, they can still be lies or wishful thinking).

Behavior can be observed however, and conclusions can be drawn.

The idea that it shouldn't be done because it's "unverifiable" is non practical (and somewhat absurd).

You’re calling people with the right skills/talent “losers” because they’re frustrated serendipity wasnt in their favor and they don’t also know the “right” people.

The people you’re disparaging know that skills/talent are also part of the work, but they’ve done that part — the part under their control. They’re commenting on the part of it which isn’t… and as far as I can tell, you’re disparaging them because you’re lucky and they aren’t.

I'm a huge academic fan of what GTk has accomplished (thanks to their GObject type system), and as much as I know the C89 crowd who thinks macros are all evil probably abhor this kind of thing, I think GTk is one of the most epic, impressive, ambitious C codebases in existence. Witness as non-OO C matches, rivals, and quite often beats Qt on equivalent classes/features in plain C... It's even above "just C++ style C," as they have added features like a property and signal system...

I'm such a fanboy it inspired my own type system and massive core library, libgimbal, which uses a type system similar to GObject and targets game consoles like the Sega Dreamcast: https://github.com/gyrovorbis/libgimbal.

In my neck of the woods, unground salt is much, much cheaper than ground. Ground salt can basically be only found coming in a plastic dispenser. It could be argued that throwing all these plastic containers away isn't great for the environment.

I only realize that I've never thought of comparing, but I've got the habit of using unground salt when cooking. My grandmother used to do this for some reason, so I picked it up.

Unground salt is also useful for cleaning things, like cooking pans.

It's therefore easier to only buy salt in one big pack that lasts forever.

Yeah, of course. I wasn't speaking of the Atari or any computer in any practical sense, just hypothetically about the minimum storage.

Of course it's possible to go even more than that - enumerate every reachable position (so remove situations like a pawn on the first or eighth rank, kings adjacent or in some check situation that couldn't have happened, pawns in positions that would require more captures than there are enemy pieces missing from the board, etc) and assign them all an index number, which requires log N storage size. And of course it would be practically impossible to do anything computationally with positions stored like that.

This link estimates an upper bound of around 10^46 reachable positions, so log2 of that would be only about 150 bits to enumerate them all.
