Oh wow, not sure how I missed that one. I'm up in Canada so it's probably restricted or only sold in tiny 100g retail packages, but if I can chase down some industrial sized bags of that somewhere I'll definitely add that to my toolbox. A little bit of that spread around the wet spots during the spring melt would probably go a long way.

So far I've been primarily relying on permethrin. A gallon of 36.8% was something like $100 and dilutes out to ~600 litres of spray for my purposes. It's not water soluble and binds strongly to soil so I don't need to worry about it getting into the water table and spreading beyond where I spray it (or into my well water). I've been spraying just around my house (and, well, _on_ my house) to make a moat to keep away the mosquitos, ticks, ants, and all the other bazillion things that kept finding their way in.

We've also invested in a couple of the CO2 traps for mosquitos. Have those out in the yard a little ways out.

End of the day though... we live in the middle of a forest situated on wetland. That's part of how I got to a place of picking my battles. I know I'm not going to make much of a dent. As long as my house isn't overrun, it is what it is.
Haven't automated this yet but I've noticed, playing around with primes, that e.g. 1/17 is a repeating decimal (that means base 10) of length n-1 or 16. Others such as 7, 11, 13, 31 are shorter and I have a working theory (not a proof) for this, that's how I backed into the first observation.

Haven't automated it (yet), I've been toying with it one step more modern than pencil and paper. Not really related to the article except that it is apparent to me at this point that generating the sequences can be automated. It started as a hobby to see if e.g. telephone numbers could be represented as fractions yielding repeating decimals.
And not just food, healthier food (hopefully). Good that’s fresh and not just microwaved frozen pizza.
That’s a good case for vouchers.

Instead, kids with engaged parents will flee to better schools. The other parents will either follow, growing the new school and model, or the other school will adapt in order to retain students.

Engaged parents are your early adopters. Without vouchers, most people can’t even afford to enter the market.
It was an option in the register when I was a cashier during the crash of '08 and I couldn't find a gig elsewhere.

But it was against policy to use the feature, since previous cashiers had worked out a way to scam the system somehow and pocket some of the cash being exchanged. I'm cloudy on the exact details after so long, but it was very, very annoying to have such a useful feature sitting there mocking me and a write up if I dared hit the button.

My argument was not that cars are more safe for the driver (they aren’t), but OP said that by me driving a 70s truck, others are less safe… a pedestrian getting hit by a 3000 pound object going 40 is going to die regardless of the crumple zones, and a sedan getting plowed into by a truck, modern and huge, or old and huge, is still just getting plowed into by a truck. By driving an old car, the only person I am endangering more is myself and my passengers.

Yup, we lead lives where it's simply not that big an issue to protect ourselves. While I think my chance of dying from getting it would be very low the issue of long term damage is another matter--it certainly looks to me like it damages everybody, just not always to the point they notice. The damage is probably cumulative.
You have your context, your manager has everyone's context. They cannot understand the details of everything, but you cannot make strategic decisions (budgeting, staffing, which projects to do at all) because you don't have the overall picture and the input frim everyone else.
1. So, if they do not plan to leave the team they can skip it?

2. Why do you need this details? Why you did not recieve this details in the firts place?

3. As any other writing. If you believe that this skills should be improved then why not use some training? And again, if person writing skills is already good then its ok to skip it then?

Any trick which is not doing full quadratic attention cripples a models ability to reason "in the middle" more than they already are crippled. Good long context length models are currently a mirage. This is why no one is seriously using GPT-4-32k or Claude-100k in production right now.

Edit: even if it's doing full attention like the commentator says, turns out that's not good enough! https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.03172
Executable size is big or small to which system we are comparing to. It's definitely bigger than C/C++ but considerably smaller than nodejs/electron.

Also having a single binary is good in lots of cases because then you don't have the install runtime/separately install shared library
When I am travelling, I have limited charging capabilities and want to continue working wherever I left - even if I did not open the laptop for 2 days. That only leaves hibernation. I had a linux laptop that could do that reliable, but for whatever reasons, the newer models of different brands I tried always had hickups and this is unaccaptable for me. I want to work with my laptop, not work on my laptop.

It can also make your project inaccessible if you rely too heavily on images.

Good policy and hard work go a lot further when there's steady funding and guaranteed market access to support that. I'm not attributing all of Poland's advances to the EU, just mentioning that Poland's trajectory was upwards due in part to these factors. Factors that the UK does not currently have in its favour.
What makes you think that. Apple is the company that would be most successful at hiding something like this then introduce it as siri ai or something. Not that they are I am just saying Apple keeps everything close to its chest when it comes to products it might introduce in the future.
No, I mean after expenses, rent/mortgage (if applicable) included.

To simplify it to the absolute extreme:

- A earns 100 and pays 25 in mortgage, or even 0 if he inherited

- B earns 300 and pays 100 in rent, but a mortgage would cost him 250, or perhaps he can't get one at all

What does it even mean to ask "who is better off" here?

On a daily basis, B obviously lives better, that part is simple at least. (I personally moved from A-like to B-like quite recently.)

Now when it comes to long-term financial plans, A has a massive illiquid asset, while B has a smaller stream of liquid assets. A is more protected against financial catastrophes - he won't end up homeless, and can keep going with a minimal salary - however B does not have any assets tying him down, so he can more result move to a more prosperous area if needed. And so on.

But you look at a wealth map and it'll just tell you that A is "richer"; or you look at an income map and it'll just tell you that B is "richer".
Yes, and identical twins raised apart show extremely similar academic achievement, far more similar than non-identical siblings raised in the same household. This strongly indicates that academic achievement is highly explained by genes but that recombination [1] causes enough scrambling to result in large variance among non-identical siblings.

> Google's privacy policy, for example, lets them claim rights over every piece of IP you post on the internet without protecting it behind a paywall

This is a nonsense. They added a disclaimer basically warning that LLMs might learn some of your personal data from the public web, because that’s part of the training data. A privacy policy is not a contract that you agree to, it’s just a notice of where/when your data is handled.

I just googled "What is the order of object-fields in JavaScript" and the bard-answer said nothing about the differences between ES5 and ES6 and ES2020 how by now the order of object-fields in fact is deterministic.

It seems it is not aware of the notion of historic development, perhaps its world-model is "static"?

Temporal reasoning is interesting , if you google for "news" do you get what was news last year because a website updated last year had a page claiming to contain "Latest News".

From what I understand, there's a current epidemic of dull flat dark lighting in movies that is motivated by SFX considerations; if you have beautiful golden god rays piercing the scene, that becomes a serious burden when it comes time to modify the clip in computers. Also dark scenes are better at hiding low quality effects from the audience.

As reasonable as that would be. I feel like it would just turn into people getting their degrees revoke claiming 'cancel culture' and becoming gurus with many mindless followers pushing loose weight quick schemes kind of thing. Because today if you face consequences, its no longer your fault, its everyone else trying to cancel you from doing the bad thing you are doing.
I'm surprised everyone is roasting you for this. I personally don't want my manager breathing down my neck and monitoring everything I do. I'm paid well and given a lot of freedom at work, the "obligation" of spending 30 seconds every week to make a note of something cool I did so that I can tell it to the people who pay me seems pretty reasonable.

Exactly. And to be clear, my argument is for the other people: my car hitting them will do arguably the same amount of damage if it’s a half ton pickup from the 70s vs today, it’s just about how safe I am in a crash, so the only person that gets to determine that and weigh the odds is me.
Then they spend the whole year “studying” for the standardized test and learn nothing. That’s how it currently is and I don’t see that changing. Standardized exam scores are utilized for funding.

I don’t know why this author needs to use this issue as a political cudgel against “progressivism” - I don’t see anything particularly progressive about this policy vs the Dallas one he also mentions - the goals are exactly the same, to bring more equity to disadvantaged and minority students.

Here is what Jo Boaler has to say on the issue: https://patch.com/california/across-ca/lets-move-past-acrimo...

she claims that having different math tracks creates a “mathematical nowhere” for some students that stop at algebra 2, but absolutely nothing in her system really alleviates this non-issue or makes it better. It’s honestly such a nonsensical policy to me that has nothing to do with politics whatsoever, in my mind, but people will inject what they believe into what they see.
> Different problems require different solutions.

> If you have different data, you have a different problem.

What is unstated but perhaps implicit here is that you might have a different problem even if you have the same data, and this is why it is better not to bind functions and data together as in OOP.

Separating functions from data lets you organize them according to the functionality they provide, instead of grouping them all together with the data structure they operate on. When you bundle data and functions together into a class, it often grows into an oversized assortment of all the various operations you might want to do on that particular bundle of data. The OOP solution for splitting up a bloated kitchen sink class is decorators, which results in using multiple object instances, each with a different interface, to manipulate the same data. Instead of simply importing functions from a different module when you want extra functionality, you have to construct a new object instance to wrap your "basic" object and "enhance" it with extra methods.
I'm guessing that DX means "developer experience" here.
Why are you treating this as either/or? Why are you pitting worker against worker? The article clearly mentions hybrid work. Relatively few, if any firms have enforced mandatory remote work on people who don't want it. This is about employers ignoring the benefits of remote work while trying to grab that little bit of autonomy granted to their employees.
On the Dev Tools’ network tab, there should be a checkbox about it on the top left.
What you refer to as strength is not potent anymore: you can surprise uncontacted peoples only once, and nowadays there's UN, the Geneva Convention etc. to stop such dehumanization that enabled the colonizations.
The context you're missing and likely are reacting to a clickbait headline is that this applies to workers where hot conditions can cause serious injury or harm. Not really related to office work that has A/C.

Compared to Australia, NZ, and Canada (the traditional bellweathers), the UK seems to have a lower QoL with much higher prices and much lower wages.

That said, even when I was a kid on Vancouver Island (the 2000s), we always had plenty of UK transplants working at VIHA, schools, corporate jobs, and blue collar jobs, and I've heard similar stories from coworkers of mine in Australia and NZ (eg. our head of Sales for ANZ was a First Class Honours LLB grad from a Russell's Group uni, but felt the wages and opportunity working for a Magic Circle firm were less than that if he went to Australia)

Our JS SDK provides a strict privacy mode that obfuscates the entire DOM for this use-case (see more here: https://www.highlight.io/docs/getting-started/client-sdk/rep...).

> 2) What happens next is where we diverge, I suspect: I think they will use their products to extract rents from that common while you think they will provide a fairly priced service.

Phrased like this, I can't really disagree with you. I don't expect a business to play fair in general, when it has a profitable option to do otherwise.

I guess my objection is more that right now, I don't see LLMs creating any kind of disincentive to publish quality content. In my eyes, LLMs are not a substitute for quality content in the first place - I see them more like using quality content to create a tool that competes with ad-hoc and shitty content.

That's not to say LLMs won't be able to eventually provide high-quality information on their own - but at that point, we'll have more important problems to deal with, such as chunk of humanity being rendered obsolete.
Agreed. When "free" means that you have to agree to terms that include "we can update these terms at any time at our discretion and you agree to those changes too," that's incredibly sketchy.

Meta's business model is "the users are not the customer, they are data sources and things to manipulate," it's especially worrying.

I don't understand the hype behind this. This whole offering is bait
The kind of thinking that leads to more progress would have to involve a scientific approach to understanding cost/benefit of death prevention measures, not random activities such as "let me cut 1cm away from the stem because I won't get cancer".

Is this even true? Is 1cm the right gap? How many people get hurt by this extra measure? Are we overlooking other death prevention measures while focusing on this (which could be seen with a control group)? Reminds me parents obsessing about micro toddler safety while overlooking the swimming pool in the backyard.

Anecdotal death prevention measures will likely lead to shorter, not longer lifespans.

I think we hugged it to death.
One of my college room mates ended up with kidney stones at a very young age (early 20s) because of a dietary supplement. He got somewhat lucky; there have been cases of liver failure [3], damage to vision [4], and many other serious health complications. Worse still, diagnosis can be difficult because in the US dietary supplements are covered under separate rules from drugs [1], the FDA is limited to post-market enforcement [2], and ingredient labels are often incomplete or wrong [5,6,7].

If Healthsearch is based on the contents of advertisements and reviews, then it may not be much more than a search engine for at best unsubstantiated marketing claims and anecdotes about the placebo effect, and at worst summarization and promotion of dangerously inaccurate or incomplete product information.

I think this is a good example of a space where generative AI is probably likely to do far more harm than good, and where the best advice remains to seek out the advice of educated and licensed medical/dietetic professionals, where education ensures a minimum of competence and licensure ensures a minimum of skin-in-the-game.

Just remember: if it's a dietary supplement, then it's not a food or a drug. It's a third thing and mostly a wild west. You have no idea what you are putting in your body, and the words on the label are just that: mere words designed to get you to purchase something. Without ground-truth data, it's all GIGO.

Yes, and the only reason it doesn't work is that no one has written truly fast, GPU implementations of them. Don't let anyone here teach you otherwise, even small scale crappy versions (like what I could code in numpy) can successfully solve reinforcement learning problems rather quickly. Nay-sayers might tell you that it doesn't work, but they are wrong. Global optimization is strictly superior to local optimization in general, and we in the AI field are stuck deep in a local minimum right now.
