There is definitely a difference, but it doesn’t really matter philosophically speaking.

If people want to take huge risks, then so be it. Whether they build the sub themselves or pay and give that responsibility to a proxy, it is still up to them to make their own risk assessment.
One concrete thing that is better about the Tesla connector is that there are no moving parts that user needs to manipulate.

Tesla/NACs connector is just stick it in and it works... the car holds onto it until it is done or you tell it to let go.

I don't think I've ever seen a public J1772 connector that had a functional spring in the little thumbpress/lock/turn on thing which means if you don't know you need to stick a key or pen cap, or squeeze really hard to pry the little fucking plastic tab up to the lock position, it just won't work.

The thesis is basically right but the conclusion unexpected. Dependencies should be minimised, but the immortal language that is simple to reimplement at will later should be from the lambda calculus lineage, not a Turing machine.

Lisp is the obvious doable-in-a-day one, but a ML is probably fine too.

(write an interpreter, use that to run a compiler if you want performance)
Simple LB like Haproxy works fine for this and similar cases. In very nutshell, Haproxy executes checks every n seconds (in your case it can be readonly mode checks ) and disables that upstream.

We use it over Mysql/Pg+patroni/Redis and works fine - we made tests for low load though, just up to 5k qps fot PG case and up to 80k rps for Redis case.
Having more stores won't open up anything. A user will still have to install them. And I'm sure they would implement their own process. Fdroid for example, compiles everything going through there
I think Amazon used to use the lower bound of a CI to sort? Or it used to be an option, then some sellers sued or threatened to based on the argument that it discriminated against smaller sellers?
They already turn off engagement with some of the YouTube short ads, why not do it for all ads?
As I have moved through my career and been in charge of larger and larger companies, I continue to be surprised how much of what you would expect is critical infrastructure that affects many people is being "cobbled" together.

I've worked at some companies that manage huge systems that affects tens of millions of people, which cause extremely severe problems if they break, and they are "cobbled" together with a surprising amount of metaphorical bubble gum and duct tape.

Every time I go somewhere new, I assume they have their shit together and I am surprised every time.

So no, it doesn't surprise me that an operation like this was cobbled together in the same fashion.
At some high level of charging speed, won't the adapter need active cooling and temperature monitoring?

"This work is based on conversations with AI startup founders and engineers." - when you have millions in venture funding there is pressure from the VC, CEO and board to show some non-trivial "architecture"... telling them you have a prompt text file, redid and a bit of glue code might not go over that well (unfortunately)
They’re pretty good, but their low heat performance leaves a lot to be desired. Rather than provide a consistent level of low heat, they tend to turn off and on. That’s not what I want. But overall they are decent. Cleaning the glass is annoying though.
I always wonder about YouTube’s storage infrastructure and whether they move old videos to cold storage in a way that is costly to recover, and that maybe that’s why they try to discourage watching older videos… but that is probably a bit oversimplified.
This one isn't new at least.

Roughly speaking, the folks "living" in Second Life are part of a strong online community, and don't much care about the "investment".

The sociology and economics of Bitcoin are very, very different from Second Life.

The biggest advantage of ActivityPub, NNTP, etc. over any web forum is that you do not have to go to a bunch of different places in a browser and use a bunch of different UIs under a bunch of different identities for something that is fundamentally not all that different from email.

Other than modern encryption, NNTP is perfectly usable on hardware that’s multiple decades old: Basically any 32-bit system with memory in the single-digit megabytes can run a newsreader, even a graphical one. I suspect the same is true for ActivityPub. And while that can be true for web forums, it almost never is, and mostly for aesthetic reasons.
I’m not sure if Reddit is losing, or the moderators are losing, but I’m sure that Steve Huffman is losing. He has made this situation so much worse than it had to be.

There also isn’t going to be another diggv4-like collapse where a new community just totally eats an old one. Even if the fediverse takes off, Reddit is still going to be very active in ten years, it has so much inertia now. The question is its trajectory and it’s IPO price.
So in essence you’re saying it’s actually worse that they’re targeting those with ancestral ties than not?

My objection is that the way it’s been phrased in this thread it’s almost giving the impression that “it’s not an American issue” that it’s China going after its own so “normal” Americans don’t need to care.

That outlook is dangerous and false. They are us, they are Americans. I’m sure China would love to propagate otherwise.
I personally don't see a distinction. It's infintiely more complicated to build public housing when people making $200k+ struggle to find a proper apartment to rent, let alone buy an actual house/condo.

Homelessness doesn't happen in a vacuum. It's not the homeless in one bucket then everyone else living in the real world, where the only dichotomy we have to accept when living in a city is public housing vs paying $3k/month for rent.

Perhaps not in this case, since it's now back.
I'm pretty sure I was considering the same one lol. Used, but still. Tiny is a feature (for me at least) because I wanted it to fit where most cars would fit and not have to take into consideration what sorts of bridges and roads I would be able to fit into. My goal is eventually to do 1-2 months per year on the road in total, with the possibility to work from the road some of the time. Still looking around, but I really liked that one haha.
>In-context learning solves this problem with a clever trick: instead of sending all the documents with each LLM prompt, it sends only a handful of the most relevant documents.

I don't even think this is a correct definition for "in-context learning". In-context learning is a type of few-shot learning in which examples of input/output pairs are provided as part of the prompt. The idea is that the model is able to "learn" the pattern of the task from the examples. Quoting from the GPT-3 paper:

>what we call “in-context learning”, using the text input of a pretrained language model as a form of task specification: the model is conditioned on a natural language instruction and/or a few demonstrations of the task and is then expected to complete further instances of the task simply by predicting what comes next.

I really don't think it's standard to refer to the process of embedding-based retrieval as "in-context learning".

I mean how should I know? The point is that I suspect there could be another option, which is that the pressure hull could have failed without imploding.

So, yes it seems insane, and having seen pictures which look both like that is a liner and ones where it looks like its not, I don't know. There is very clearly an outer shell offset from the pressure hull. Whats on the inside isn't as clear, but I'm not sure why they would be running cables out of the floor when they could just be running them out closer to the arm/etc if there is space behind.

Although from a human comfort perspective, I'm not sure why there isn't a little foot well/bench either. There is obviously stuff under the floor, but it also looks fairly hollow too.
It had a well-polished Linux-based OS, developed in-house by Nokia. Excellent hardware for the time, and a keyboard which was a delight to use. It got pretty decent reviews - even outside of the Linux fanboy bubble.

It's just a good phone which happens to run Linux, not a mediocre phone hyped because it is one of the few Linux options available.

The use of a wireless input is a bit suspect, but the headline seems rather sensational to me. What’s wrong with using an inexpensive logitech component? The critical systems in my car are filled with cheap off-the-shelf components.
Well, for one thing, it doesn't quote arguments correctly.

But if you do this...

Reify side effects in some fashion and then run the combinator graph reduction at compile time, as far as reasonable to do so. Partial evaluation works really well.

Basically combinators for the pure parts and functions that get optimised much less enthusiastically for IO or FFI.

Dive into more exotic languages. Maybe LLMs will make simple Python scripting obsolete, but they will be awful at writing, say, OpenCL/Vulkan kernels, engine specific scripts, SIMD intrinsics, triton code and such for some time.

Alright. Yes. now it is. This is all I've been trying to point out- is that there is a built in messaging app as part of AOSP. My recollection is that Google can't turn this into gMessage because then it would be distributed as part of the base OS and would require a Google account to use.

Now it's abandoned so it definitely won't be anything now.

Isn't that the type of sorting you basically only need to do once? Or I guess in the rare cases when a video gets taken down, privated or relisted? I know it's not super rare but it would still be a much rarer event than users sorting by old. So they can just keep the list or set of video IDs, no need for expensive db operations right?

(I'm being a complete armchair expert here, since I have no idea of the actual state of the YouTube backend. It might look simple to me but I'm sure it's not in reality . I'm curious to see what would be the best way to optimize a feature like this one!)

You keep saying that "the WFH experiment failed" which is disingenuous; you are attempting to lend the credibility of science to your own speculation. You also claim that it failed as a 'universal' approach to work, which is an obvious strawman.

WFH was thrust on a good portion of the world by necessity. It was cobbled together at the last minute so that business could continue, with the typical amount of investment and diligence of a profit-driven entity fully expecting a return to the status quo. To frame WFH over the last 3 years as some deliberate experiment where learnings were sought (and found) is just plain ridiculous.

At best, you can argue that particular roles are best performed, or can only be performed, in an office environment, and that some people prefer the more social environment of an office. Any remark on WFH otherwise is just an anecdote that you're attempting and failing to pass off as a universal truth about WFH.
Predicting the demise of something does not mean you are incorrect until the day it collapses.

People have criticised Oceangate’s approach to security for years. By your logic I could have turned around to all of them and said “you’re wrong”, up until a few days ago when the CEO got trapped inside a submarine to die. The people who said their safety approach was a ticking time bomb were right all along, it just took time to be proven out.
> Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

The lack of emergency beacon is the real WTF. Not even an inflatable buoy. Using a game pad is probably OK. But no emergency method to mark their last location or even surface?
This is not really how the government operates. If this was operating at scale the government would absolutely be involved. You can't just run cruise ship operations and advertising without government involvement.

While I understand the anger that our parent's generation had an easier life, we have reached limits to growth, like a jar full of bacteria 99% full.

Our parent's lifestyles were never sustainable.
I am not a mechanical engineer, so you're right, I wouldn't design a better submarine.

Peers in the industry though have expressed concerns, such as in this 2018 letter:

Our apprehension is that the current experimental approach adopted by Oceangate could result in negative outcomes (from minor to catastrophic) that would have serious consequences for everyone in the industry.

They absolutely provide value. I’m not questioning that. I’m just sad and frustrated by the lack of any better options for application developers.

We desperately need a good, lightweight, feature rich, cross platform application framework. Making something good will probably need an 8-figure budget at a minimum. Unfortunately nobody with that kind of money seems invested enough to make it happen. As a result, every computer on the planet is either slower or more expensive than it needs to be in order to run Teams / Slack / Discord / etc etc.

It feels like a coordination problem more than a technical problem, with users suffering the most.

I tried to research, but it's not clear. It says the gulf stream can reach 5mph, but also that that is near the surface, and it's slower the deeper you go.

A buoy ascends at 2.8 m/s. 3000m would yield, meaning about 18 minutes of rise time.

If we assume that water is at max speed the whole way through, we'd be talking about 1-2 miles.

Realistically, because most of its rise is in deep sea conditions, I imagine it'd be less than 1 mile.

But, if it made contact as soon as it reached surface with a GPS location, I'm sure some scientist could calculate about how far it drifted from the water conditions. I'd imagine they could get it down to a few hundred foot radius?
