The demo Jobs & Co were given did not involve Xerox Star. (It was still the experimental PARC software.) The Xerox Star interface and OS were developed by Xerox SDD.

(One in practice rather problematic side of the Star was the extensive licensing that came with it. You needed an extra license for about every feature. Italic text? Get a new license, ect. This probably hindered its success as much as its – by virtue of this licensing policy ever growing – price tag. Also, the Star's still discrete processor may have been somewhat challenged at times. On the other hand, other than the Lisa, it feature full network integration. Regarding the end user experience, it was probably noticeable different from the Lisa, as there was no drag&drop and direct manipulation on the OS side of things. Rather, it was: click to select, press keyboard key to select function, use mouse to execute. Technically, the Star relied on property sheets for objects, which could be either presented as menus, button arrays or dialogs. Notably, this did not involve hierarchical structures, so there were no hierarchical menus.)

An autonomous robot cleaning the dishes on its own in an unfamiliar kitchen without breaking anything: how many years? What's your bet?
They might not need it, but it might reduce the friction dramatically.

I use GPT to learn things occasionally, but it’s almost always something where I don’t have the language on hand to navigate the problem space. GPT is great at opening windows and giving you the tools you need to figure something out.

In my case, I usually get to a point where I think I get the topic well enough to leave ChatGPT and go out on my own. Something interesting here is that you can ask GPT to tell you where good resources might be found on the internet. Sometimes it’ll actually come through, providing you some decent places to investigate the topic even further. Whether it’s blog posts, long form articles, or research papers.

It’s mostly a matter of eliminating friction and connecting dots faster. It’s definitely not making something possible that wasn’t possible before.
For anyone young enough not to have used an ASR-33 or similar, the UNIX login: process would assume you were on uppercase only and "work" if you logged in as your username/password in uppercase. Guess it was an extra round or two of password hashing against the salt.

It remained in the "getty" process for some time, well into the {Free,Net,Open}BSD era.

CP/M and the like were pretty forgiving of commands being shouted too.

some languages (IMP, maybe others) used %reserved-word% formatting so you could do things pretty much how you wanted and then the system would know what was instructions.
Until Intel let me use ECC RAM on Consumer-grade CPU, I will use AMD without second thought.
There are plenty of honest dentists in the Bay Area (and America). If you're well informed, it's easy to tell based on a combination of Yelp reviews and what they recommend when you come in for an exam. Most of them only take higher paying PPO insurance, or don't take insurance at all (well, they're out of network).
They imagine themselves as an aristocracy of talent, whose brilliance let's them live the life of the aristocracy of bloodlines.
>Roaring bitmaps and similar data structures get their speed from decoding together consecutive groups of elements, so if you do sequential decoding or decode a large fraction of the list you get excellent performance.
EF instead excels at random skipping, so if you visit a small fraction of the list you generally get better performance. This is why it works so well for inverted indexes, as generally the queries are very selective (otherwise why do you need an index?) and if you have good intersection algorithms you can skip a large fraction of documents.

There's no sequential decoding in our variant, every access is independent.
The roaring bitmap variant is used only for the optional index (1 docid => 0 or 1 value) in the columnar storage (DocValues), not for the inverted index. Since this is used for aggregation, some queries may be a full scan.

The inverted index in tantivy uses bitpacked values of 128 elements with a skip index on top.

> I didn't follow the rest of your comment, select is what EF is good at, every other data structure needs a lot more scanning once you land on the right chunk. With BMI2 you can also use the PDEP instruction to accelerate the final select on a 64-bit block

The select for the sparse codec is a simple array index access, that is hard to beat (https://github.com/quickwit-oss/tantivy/blob/main/columnar/s...). Compression is not good near the 5k threshold though.
PDEP is currently deactivated since ryzen before Zen3 was really slow.

Creation speed is also quite important, do you know how "Partitioned Elias-Fano" performs there?
Episode 382 – Red Hat, you were the chosen one [audio]
I used to have all sorts of issues with my teeth, and ended up with 2 root canals, and crowns, and had 1 of them go bad. Ended up with an implanted tooth. Yikes.

Learned later about how cavities work and figured out the best routine for my teeth - floss and then brush (Philips electric toothbrush) every morning. Brush and then fluoride rinse every night. I always floss/brush before breakfast, and wait at least 30 min after dinner to brush/fluoride rinse.

I haven’t even had a cavity in 5+years, and my dentist always says I don’t even have any plaque to scrape off - “you have good dental hygiene, and I don’t say that very often”
(B) Long flight first

When transferring I can do things like visit the restroom or get dinner or even update people I am meeting in my final destination. Those have far more value to me after I've been traveling for a while.

Meanwhile, I don't feel like I have "more resources" in a close location to a far destination.
So in your opinion, what is the best way to learn ML in order to try and avoid these issues
This so accurate it hurts. And it's also super funny. Good job :)
Is skipping the final period in acronyms a stylistic choice? =]

"as long as"

three simple words that are key here. as long as nothing changes, the algorithms that look to the past to predict the future will remain accurate. as long as.
From the vendor side, it's more like the software equivalent of dropshipping. Slap your own label on something you didn't make and call it a day. If the original "manufacturer" goes under, you either pivot or fail too.

From the consumer side, if you buy a dropshipped product you don't get the benefits of working with the manufacturer, and are risking worse customer service.
Yeah but that assumes you know better than your recipient whether they should like to know that you’ve texted them. That’s a bad habit to get into.

Let people manage the settings on their own devices - whether they’ve forgotten to set their quiet hours is not your concern. Trust other people to take care of their own responsibilities. If they mess up, they deal with the consequences - it’s not your problem. If they feel the need to answer your text immediately when for you it wasn’t necessary, let them choose for themselves. Don’t presume to take that choice away from them.

When considering whether or not the survey reflects reality, I invite you to look at other survey methodologies and the error bars that are possible with as many as, say, 1500 randomly sampled survey participants. The voluntary nature might skew the data a little bit, but not so much that it completely invalidates the trends shown. Sure, not the whole picture, but probably quite close.

Well, I don’t want to discourage wealth, I want to discourage carbon emissions. It’s not a tax on people, you attribute carbon by tacking the tax on new carbon entering the carbon cycle (fossil fuels) at the time of extraction or importation. That adds to the inputs cost of everything that’s fossil-fuel intensive, and the price increase should flow through to the end consumer. For things that are manufactured in countries without an equivalent tax, you do what’s called a border adjustment, essentially a carbon-intensity-based tariff, and to encourage countries to jump onboard with their own carbon tax, and not attempt to disadvantage your manufacturing, you make it a pessimistic estimate. And you can make it revenue neutral (and redistributive) by dividending out all revenue equally, to help offset the price increases. If someone’s carbon footprint is lower than average, they end up ahead.
I use the Biorepair night creme(it's actually Hydroxyapatite and Xylitol) and sometimes the sensodyne repair & protect(keep in mind that the German version does not include novamin)

When my root was exposed I did apply clove oil and completely refrained from simple carbs for the treatment and after until it healed.

EDIT: a lot of Japanese tooth pastes also have it by the way and there is no real guarantee that it works, but theoretically it's supposed to fill microabrasions temporarily.
Novamin is not really better than fluoride, from when I looked at the studies.

Nano hydroxyapatite combined with fluoride has a little bit better evidence for it being better than fluoride alone.
If you really think about it every future is near term with a shelf life :)

Maybe experience with language enthusiasts? When a language has fewer users, the users that it has are more likely to be enthusiasts.

Reminds about me I was talking to a company at a booth. They were using Java and up comes this guy who started professing that that was all wrong and they should rewrite their whole stack in Lisp.

I guess you’ll become allergic to minority programming languages if that happens often enough.

"A security guard at an airport can be a a machine gun on wheels" - are you serious? That is a job which is 99.99% about understanding human intentions in confusing and ambiguous situations, and where making a mistake will literally kill people. It's the last job you want to automate with "AI".
You’re the one posting a video of someone acting like an idiot in a road rage incident and suggesting that’s what the typical gun owner does in a self defense situation. That’s simply not the case. Don’t turn this around and move the goalposts.

Dicken was a hero in that incident, but he was also an ordinary civilian exercising his right to carry a concealed weapon in public. Incidentally, the same YouTuber who interviewed that SAS man made a video about Dicken; he explains the point a lot better than I probably can: https://youtu.be/mA7Rb-EX4K4

And when it comes to cops, stop making excuses for the cowards in Uvalde. I am disappointed in them, and I have every right to be.

Seriously? An existential threat to society? Taken literally there is a serious need for all involved to get a sense of proportion. Nuclear weaponry are an existential threat to societies. There are many far more terrible things which are not existential threats wars, coups, purges, and pandemics while horrible are not. The presumed tech demons of social media and big data don't even belong on the list.

Taken metaphorically is this the new incarnation of the "ruining society" meme/rhetorical device after it got utterly discredited because society was already ruined by jazz music, women voting, women wearing pants, LGBT people existing in secrecy, rock music, metal, rap, LGBT people existing openly, and many more? If so it is just as insipid as its ancestors.

I find the self-flagellation complex of claiming tech to be the well from which all sorrows are drawn, ruiner of the perfect Eden which existed before not only utterly stupid but downright tedious and tiresome.
You need palera1n, the executable, to run the exploit on your device connected over USB. It is semi-untethered, so you need to run it on every boot, if you want your jailbroken environment. Otherwise it will boot into plain iOS.
Our blind spot in vetting information is kind of like our blind spot when looking for something we have lost. We don't double check what we are sure of. To me, that is the most serious challenge when trying to learn using LLMs.

As someone who wears a beard, I'd like to remind you and all others that body hair is a natural way to trap air and moisture near the body for a cooling effect. If you're shaving off your body hair, then you're defeating Mother Nature's most effective air conditioning, and you're going to ensure that your sweat slides uselessly down your legs before it can help your body cool down.

It is also a good way to trap contaminants before they can reach the nose, skin and the body, so if one is meticulous about keeping one's body hair clean, one can stay healthier than someone with relatively less of it.
two people grow to love one another together - it’s a simultaneous process. A sudden / unexpected confession implies that feelings are one-sided. The two immediate responses would be “but I don’t love you,” or “how could you love me, you don’t know really know me.”

To enter a relationship with someone, you have to like what you’ve seen of them, enough so that you’re willing to work together to see what could be between you. Again, it takes two willing participants. If one of you falls for the other faster, that’s not necessarily a bad thing, but along the lines of those responses I gave as examples above, the expectation is that when one confesses the other is ready for it.
The EU AI Act: Three Versions of the Law
So you mean like something you can wheel in and install or a humanoid style robot you could use in any kitchen? Cause in theory you're just talking about a dishwasher lol.

If you mean a robot that could clean in any kitchen without breaking anything, I'd say at least 20 years. As in you could move it from kitchen to kitchen with no install needs.

I suppose another way to look at it is this: how many businesses use robot cleaners to vacuum/mop their floors? Because as far as I can tell that is already solved (basically) but it isn't done because the cost/benefit/efficacy just doesn't add up.

What do you think?
> the Lisa was pretty expensive even for its time, and many attribute its commercial failure to this.

A Lisa was about $10,000.

The Alto wasn't for sale to the public, but it's successor, the Xerox Star was.

A Xerox Star "starter kit" was about $75,000, and included a workstation for end user use, a workstation to act as a file, print and mail server, and a laser printer all networked together.

Once you bought the "starter kit" you could get additional workstations for $16,000.

There was a recently linked blog post about restoring an HP workstation from the same era that retailed for $25,000.

https://hackaday.com/2023/06/20/repairing-a-25000-hp-worksta...
Incidentally, I discovered that GitLab happily supports their Runners being installed on Linux Mint. So plausibly that could be the smoking gun of people actually out there running mint on servers. Or maybe Dev workstation runners idk.

My work alerts are very granually defined.

On Personal alerts though I gave up the granular filtering a long time ago, real people in my contact list all go through without any specific rules, and I'll actually tell people to stop sending me links to facebook rants in the middle of the night.

Some of the companies and automated services have special rules (my bank, Google account alerts etc.) to let notifications through, but by default I won't allow any service to have notification bells, mail and SMS are silent as well.
I can't say I agree.

Most people I know commute by bike. Trains are used wherever practical, and proximity to train stations is a major consideration in choice of job and home. At least in my bubble, commuting by car is only used as a last resort--necessary for many, but they'd use an alternative if there was one.
Why do people humiliate themselves like this?
Actual code, yeah, ChatGPT probably will mess up.

Things like "How do I delete a value from a dict" probably either works or it doesn't.

This was written by Alon Levy, who is deep in the weeds of transport infrastructure and was writing for a technical audience. The habitual readers of their blog will easily interpret this as "Why commuters prefer transfers at the origin rather than transfers at the destination". This is the same conclusion that will be reached by readers who have never read Alon's blog before but do in fact read the first sentence of the post.

Clearly, Alon's title uses wonkish terminology and would have benefited from a title that was more easily understood by people unfamiliar with the field. I think it's fair to say that you're not the target audience.
You could also say you’re falling in love with them - that’s the beginning of the process, that’s not quite full on “I love you.” “I’m falling for you” or “I’ve been having a crush on you” are also sort of ‘intro’s to full-blown love.

Uh, an a10 can outrange an f35, it's just slower to get there. It also can carry a heck of a lot more munitions than an f35 at 50% less cost per hour, with a longer service life.

I'm not saying that the 35 isn't an excellent platform, nor am I saying the A10 would be a great asset in a conflict with china, but saying the f35 is a drop in CAS replacement for the A10 is kind of missing the larger picture of what it's used for today.

I am of the opinion that the f35 is a gerber multi tool and while it's super versatile, it doesn't do everything as well as purpose built platforms. The obsession with a one tool fits all is kind of silly. In every category, the f35 is objectively not the winner, there are faster fighters, fighters with greater a2a payloads, CAS with better loiter/payload capacity, bombers with better capacity.

One of the primary goals of CAS should be the ability to stay on station for extended periods of time. Part of the likelihood aircraft are on station is directly related to the cost to maintain and maintenance requirements. F35s have huge costs and require a significant amount of maintenance.
The Mac also had no preemptive task switching, no memory protection between applications and/or the OS. Early on there was also no software development on the Mac - one needed an Apple Lisa for that.

I’ve done this to my Lumia 950 XL. Battery performance is not great, but it is usable.

It has a steep learning curve for the average person, but most people interested in doing this won’t have too much trouble.

I am also participating in the DuoWoA project from the same team also led by Gustave Monce. It hopes to implement a similar approach for the Microsoft Surface Duo and Duo 2.

Though it is currently working with some major drawbacks which would prevent its use as a daily driver, its overall usability is progressing very well with each release.
