This is a popular rebuttal and I don’t think that it’s a good one.

The detrimental effects of the media forms you’ve listed are better considered in ways other than through events that themselves are (ironically) pop culture tropes today (moral panic over music, the “war of the worlds” panic myth).

It’s hard to even compare technology as pervasive as AI, smartphones and social media to TV and music (which are pervasive in their own right by definition, but not so much by comparison). The former is capable of subsuming and manipulating the forms of the latter and its effects are far more direct than the latter’s in respect to the present age.

As a parent to a toddler I was surprised to note how bad I am at estimating whether me or my child have a fever.

On top of that infants naturally can have a body temperature of up to 37.5°C, which is an additional hurdle because they may feel warm, but be generally fine.

Years of soldering taught me that the lips are very sensitive to temperature(much more so than fingers) and heal fast should you touch something really hot, like a soldering iron, so for emergencies there's that, but obviously it doesn't work when both of you have a temperature.

Also, for more than one reason, you can't reliably check yourself.
I remember writing a GTK extension widget many years ago, and yes, it was very much like this. The macros end up making your very own hand-coded vtable-equivalent, so that function calls get dispatched to the appropriate point in the inheritance chain. It was pretty eye-opening!
Without exaggerating, I think I've read maybe two kind comments about Oracle _ever_. Their handling of the Sun IP alone could overfill thread after thread with vitriol.

And I think an analogy is apt. Someone was one telling me that religions that are slightly different (think Protestantism versus Catholicism) lead to far greater strife than religions that are vastly different (like Buddhism and Catholicism.) Maybe people are just louder about the things they care about and feel close to.
>Most of what causes low performance in schools is beyond the ability of schools to address. It's why we keep trying reforms and they don't do much—and when they appear to, it usually turns out, in the long run, to have been dumb luck or number-fudging, either intentional or because the people involved don't know how statistics work.

I disagree completely. I contend that the "reforms" we try don't do much because the people in charge of deciding what "reforms" are needed are incompetent, corrupt bureaucrats, lobbyists and union officials. The state of Mississippi, which is far poorer and spends far less than the ~$26,000 per student per year than New York spends has had far better educational outcomes (Despite the fact that Mississippi is one of the poorest states with a much higher level of poverty).

With a company being sold: yes, customer data is also sold.

Google had not been in the business of selling its businesses until now (and thus was not selling customer data either). They were in the business of building own products (sometimes shutting them down) and buying other companies.

This is a first they shut off a division and also sell off customers’ data.

You're overthinking it. We have Javascript on the server because Javascript was a very commonly known language already (due to being the only choice for web) and the average programmer (one who doesn't post on these forums) is not going to bother to learn another language if they don't have to.

The easiest way to turn front end developers into full stack developers was to let them use the same language for everything, and it was easier to bring JavaScript to the server than to bring any other language to the web.

These days with WASM and JavaScript as compilation targets it might have been avoided, but it's already too late.

Anyway I rambled a bit but the point is "joy" has nothing to do with it.

1) Canonical does not have enough testers. As a developer I have seen what kind of bugs are reported on Ubuntu, and some of them denote a serious lack of QA. There are packages in Ubuntu that are almost certainly shipped untested.

2) Canonical does not have enough developers, unless they found a magic recipe by which their relatively few employees know how to fix issues in all these packages while not contributing upstream and while also maintaining mir/upstart/snap whatever their latest fad is. So if you have say a performance regression or a kernel crash or a miscompilation they might just relay that to upstream developers and hope they fix it.

3) Regarding package count, PPAs are basically the same as EPEL or Copr, and are unsupported.

I'm not saying they are bad at support. I'm saying that they are betting on their customer not actually asking them to support some of the things they ship. Red Hat just says "no thanks, feel free to use EPEL or pip but we don't want to touch it".

Agree other comments, it's not gaslighting. Knowing what terms mean is sort of important.

I'd say one of the better bits of advice is ...

"Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience." -- Mark Twain
We like these fall-from-grace stories but there's a subpattern to this that can't be articulated so easily. Literal "corruption" comes close.

See also: every freedom fighter that launches a coup to overthrow a dictator, then becomes a dictator themselves within a decade. Or cops that get caught stealing child porn from the evidence locker, despite not being pedophiles by any definition.

Not all these types start this way, or are inherently hypocrites. Repeat exposure to something tends to rub off. You can't rail against the evils of prostitution as the basis of your career without being forced to spend cycles processing what about them is so awful. Thinking about round tits on display, the mechanics of sex, etc. The unthinkable is literally on your mind 24/7, which effectively normalizes the behavior and makes it less outrageous over time. It's a weird cycle of grooming yourself to accept what you purport to hate.

I'm an anti-fraud professional. I'm surrounded by so much of it (seemingly without consequence) that I'm frequently tempted to break bad myself. I never will, but it's a "conscious" decision (as an extremely stubborn Slav) and not because I'm a saint. Temptation just comes with the territory. It wears you down until you fail and make headlines in the most humiliating way.
I look forward to a virtual, nothing-in-my-hands-but-I'm-still-playing-it drumset. The lack of tactile feedback will make it worse than real drums, but it'll still be fun to be able to play them anywhere.
> incompatible quantities have incompatible units

Okay; how do you add the unit of energy, one joule, to the unit of torque, one newton-metre?

Both have the same SI units: kilogram square metre per second per second. But one is a scalar quantity, whereas the other is a vector quantity.
The issue is what they're educated in. It's not generally programming languages.
I was thinking that the contact resistance would create quite a bit of heat as well, and if there's nowhere to dissipate you can get quite hot. Even if a high temp plastic can take it, you might burn the person handling it.
Wait a second, the blog which is bringing to light these issues is by academics who ARE seeking the truth.

As someone in academia (very different field than Behavioral psych), I'm very cautious of people who say overgeneralised hyperbole such as:

I disagree, and i think so does the director, due to one very deliberately written line. "So, what else is on?" by the security guards at the end. They did not care about him, they moved on a second after
I'm personally on the opposite end of this spectrum. My projects don't use neither Kotlin nor even AppCompat. The AndroidX libraries that I need (because Google can't be assed to ship them as part of the system) like RecyclerView I use as my own fork that doesn't depend on anything else. I wholeheartedly despise what Google does to the Android development ecosystem. Google is not a good steward of Android.

Other developers I know approach Compose with caution and mostly use it for experiments, not in their real apps.
One could bolt such a system on top of an LLM.

An LLM is "just" a document completer. Given text, it predicts the following text.

So there is nothing stopping you from bolting on a system which works like:

- Given the current streaming input, continually update a pool of N likely continuations (predict what the user will say)

- For each of those N likely continuations, pre-generate responses

- If the actual user continuation matches one of the continuations, use your pre-generated response

This is trading off compute for latency, as you won't use at least N-1 of those pre-generated responses.
No, that's a poorly constructed fallacy fallacy. It really isn't a strawman. What did I define "woke" as? And what did the gp comment say about sentiment towards it?
I guess I should have been more clear. What I meant was that there seem to be a lot of die hard RedHat fans that hock the RedHat ecosystem for no apparent gain. I failed to make my point clearly, however. Podman is one of those tools that seem to follow up that narrative. RedHat could invest in the container ecosystem to make things better. Instead they strive to compete and hang their hat on very specific arguments against products that were (and still are in many cases) more complete.

This is what bothers and annoys me about Last Week Tonight with John Oliver and even The Daily Show

The audience acts like they went out of their way to get a less biased news source and edutainment

I’m going to bet that well-experienced lesson has positively affected future endeavours. Did it ever come to mind when you were working on something and the memory guided you towards searching for additional edge cases or taking “what ifs” more seriously?
I'd encourage you to read reputable research on this more. Especially ones on intelligence between races if that's where your mind is going. At one point I thought I also had some "facts" about this that were founded in science, but after more careful reading recently in my life I realized the "science" I had vaguely remembered around this was actually racist, unscientific garbage.
I think we'll get there. Not just from a pure performance perspective but also in terms of model architecture. Or maybe it's rather going to be an architecture of models? I mean, the human brain isn't a single(-threaded) entity, either. Lots of things are happening in parallel, and there are parts of your brain that do complete words & sentences and the like and then there are other mechanisms that evaluate those completions and decide whether or not to say them out loud etc.

Introducing an AI generated newsletter we are building (https://news.voker.io/). From there you can customize any topics and any sources you are interested. The AI agent will aggregate and generate newsletter daily or weekly to your email box.

We have sample newsletters on large language model topics but you can definitely create your own today! And we are also making it more personalized and interactive. Imagine everyone can have different newsletter based on their preference and they can even chat with them to ask questions.

Hope it can be helpful for you.

There are few things out there as dangerous as arguments that "make sense." Lots of things can do that, all while being rather flawed.

I am curious to know more on this one. Odd to see so much pointing fingers happening. I'm guessing that isn't as rare as I would assume it is?
Teslas are already consumer items that rock massive batteries.

My 25 count is off. It's probably closer to 75 GPUs right now.

Let's say today's models are running vanilla transformers via pytorch without any of Deepmind's Flamingo QKV optimizations. In 10 years algorithmic optimizations, and ML platform improvements push that efficiency up 3-5 fold. We're down in the ballpark of 25 GPUs (again)

Now, we ditch the general purpose GPUs entirely and go for specially built AI inference chip. The year is 2033 and specialty inference chips are better and more widespread. Jettison those ray tracing cores, and computer rendering stuff. Another 3x improvement and we're at ~8 GPUs

Now you said the 4090 is about 3.5x faster than the 780 from a decade ago. We are now on the order of 2 chips to run inference.

These models won't just be running in Teslas, they will be running in agricultural vehicles, military vehicles, and eventually robot baristas.

There’s been an emphasis in slog on Handler composition over directly implementing a ton of features. Personally I love it - there are things I’ve needed, that slog can do, that few other loggers make easy/possible.

Zerolog will still be relevant for raw performance (slog is close to zap on perf - doesn’t win benchmarks, doesn’t look out of place either), fewer really need it but some really do.

My father in law was in the construction business during this time at a company building bridge spans. A supplier gave them 5 Apple IIs as a bonus for buying so much product. The owner exclaimed, throw them out computers are a fad!

To calculate the bridge spans requirements it took 3 guys a 3-5 days to do the calculations, drafting the spans, and double checking everything. My father in law opened the book on basic and saw the math it could do.

He wrote a very basic program to take the inputs and do the math. It took the computer less than an hour to return the results.

Who knows that the future brings but I’ll be optimistic.
Ah, you meant it the same way that a thief is more honest that a corrupt politician. At least the first one is honest about what it does.

A good first step for better WASM support, however it's currently incompatible with tinygo's WASM target.

For example, I'm working on a custom WASM host (non-browser) and have a tinygo WASM package with import bindings like this:

//go:wasm-module rex
//export wait_for_event
func wait_for_event(timeout_usec uint32, o_event *uint32) bool

Both these comment directives are tinygo-specific of course, and now Go has added its own third and different directive of course.

When I add Go's desired `//go:wasmimport rex wait_for_event` directive, it complains about the types `*uint32` and `bool` being unsupported. Tinygo supports these types just fine and does what is expected (converting the types to uint32). On the surface, I understand why Go complains about it, but it's such a trivial conversion to have the compiler convert them to `uint32` values without requiring the developer to use unsafe pointer conversion and other tricks.

Hopefully I can find a way to keep both tinyo and Go 1.21rc2 happy with the same codebase going forward and be able to switch between them to evaluate their different strengths and weaknesses.
Taking control of a company and thereby getting ACCESS to customer data is not the same thing as selling customer data. They are radically different concepts.

I think the answer is no. They may be more prevalent and widely adopted, but there's essentially no point in owning a hardware synth. It's been heading this way for a while, but the 5 years or so has really seen software modelling synths become almost free from drawbacks compared to soft synths.

I say this as someone that loathes soft synths, and loves playing with the hard synths. I absolutely despise the mouse interface outside of certain specific contexts, even outside of music.

There are a couple reasons. First, the fact is that you can create any sound from a hard synth on a soft synth given enough time. The sound quality will be better, or at least the same as a hard synth. Software can expand up until you run out of resources, so there's no limit on ENV, LFO... entire instances of the synth. There's probably use cases for getting two identical synths with different settings. Of course you can sample and layer, but even that is easier in DAW, either way.

So why even bother with the hardware synths in 2023? If you have a large amount of money, for a hobbyist, go ahead and get in the game. Be prepared to pay $1,000-20,000 or more, vs. $300-2000 for a good software setup.

It does feels more natural and like playing an instrument, and more fun to explore than a GUI. I can also move two knobs at once among a number of tricks in hard synths. This is a pain with software, even if you create macros, because you might not always want the same proportional adjustment in settings... ie. you can simultaneously turn on knob up and down (I imagine this is "possible" with DAW, but not natural and seamless).

There's another reason to use hardware. When you want a very specific sound, that you just know you can get easily from a specific synth. You could probably make a similar one with a generic synth, but don't want to. On the other hand, this is only necessary if a high quality plugin doesn't exist for your synth, which is unlikely unless it's an obscure one.

So, yes we're seeing a really interesting renaissance of hardware synths. This will continue for some time, and may not truly "end". However, right now they can't compete with hardware for easy control.

I can't help but think the control issue can be figured out, although it requires cooperation of a ton of different businesses, to support some number of controllers. Maybe this is truly impossible, but it seems do-able to have an array of knobs, and sliders... it's just that all the plugin companies would have to play around. I think NI has been doing this.

I think it's possible that we see more merging of DAW, controller, and plug-in. This is already occurring to a limited extent. DAWless machines are being loaded with single board computers that can run plug-ins. Your synth will also be a PC.

Anyway, what a rant, I'm sure no one will ever see this. Perhaps you can get by with just the learn button, but this has been a nightmare to me.

I'm not sure I follow. Oranians are 98% white. Black South Africans I assume are 100% black. Oranians are therefore part of the white group that make 4 times as much. And while not backed by data, there are assumptions that can be made (that i laid out) to suggest that Oranians do have a lot more wealth than SA on average

I saw a video of some sort of motocross meet (not familiar with it) and apparently the visors become completely covered with mud, so riders start the race with several clear plastic strips on the visor and they tear one layer off off as needed. (A comment was made that motocross meets are littered with the debris). Probably wouldn’t need to be so dramatic here.

As an alternative - would a headset lite version without the AR work better here? Display needed information on a nearby tablet or large tv while the user wears a headband only.
You can be rooting for him but ultimately indulging in his exploitation all the same. Yeah, people want the happy ending, but they will be fine with a tragic one, so long as they are entertained.
