SARS repeatedly spilled over into humans during 2002-2003, until the markets were shut down and the infected animal populations were culled. A review on SARS [0] describes how many independent clusters of SARS popped up over a period of months, spread across different markets in the Pearl River Delta:

> Between November 2002 and February 2003, the first cases or clusters of SARS appeared in several independent geographic locations in the Pearl River Delta region in southern Guangdong, and suggested multiple introductions of a virus or similar viruses from a common source. Several of the early cases were reportedly associated with occupations that involved contact with wildlife, including handling, killing and selling wild animals as well as preparing and serving wildlife animal meat in restaurants (Xu et al. 2004). Moreover, a study of early SARS cases (i.e. those with disease onset prior to January 2003) compared to those identified later in the outbreak found that 39% of early-onset cases were food handlers, whereas only 2%–10% of cases between February and April 2003 were associated with this occupation.

The review goes on:

> It was observed that early cases of SARS occurred independently in at least five different well-separated municipalities in Guangdong Province. The study also found that early patients were more likely than later patients to report living near a produce market, but not near a farm, and nine of 23 (or 39%) early patients were food handlers with probable animal contact.

The review also discusses how many SARS spillover events were not recognized at the time:

> Several studies revealed a higher than normal seroprevalence of SARS-CoV antibodies among wild animal traders. Guan et al. (2003) found that eight of 20 (40%) wild animal traders sampled from a market in Shenzhen, Guandong, in 2004 had anti-SARS-CoV antibodies in comparison to 1 from 20 (5%) vegetable traders from the same market. Yu et al. (2003) analysed serum samples taken on May 4, 2003 from animal traders in three different live animal markets in Guangzhou. Out of 508 animal traders surveyed, 13% had antibodies to SARSCoV; 72% of traders of masked palm civets ( Paguma larvata ) were seropositive. Interestingly, none of the animal traders had SARS or atypical pneumonia diagnosed during the SARS outbreak in Guangdong, suggesting asymptomatic infection by SARS-CoV or a closely related SARS-like coronavirus.

SARS probably spilled over countless times into humans during 2002-2003, because there was a large population of farmed animals that had it, and very little was done to cut off the spillover source for months.

This is a key difference from SARS-CoV-2. This outbreak was detected much more quickly (because of China's experience with SARS), and the very first thing the authorities did was to close the Huanan market and crack down on farms that raise the types of animals that are most likely to be involved in the spillover.

Doesn't it actually come from UK houses of parliament?
Yes true, but we have to keep trying to convince people in our circles. Otherwise we're effed.

I would have hoped that especially this HN crowd would change their mind because it's quite clear and logical that not consuming meat and dairy will mean requiring fewer resources and producing less pollution.
This doesn’t appear to be funded by the EU. The EU usually makes it a requirement to indicate if a project is funded by them. The Fraunhofer society itself gets its funding primarily from the German federal government. Of course they also often apply for EU grants. I have hard time understanding how this comment about EU funding is in any way relevant to this submission.
I take your point that it could have been more strongly worded. The reason I say it "devliers unexpectedly well" is because the whole concept of using gzip for classification is unintuitive, and even after fixing the flaw it still manages to get decent accuracy (given that it is no more beating state-of-the-art models).
I worked in offline environment for a few years. It was not a nightmare. It's less productive, that's for sure, but not by far margin. And it compensates by lack of online distractions.
COVID jumped from humans to animals lot of times already. Whole animal farms were cleaned out.
It's not just about CO2 - it's also that the large scale meat & dairy industry requires way more resources, destroys natural habitats and creates a ton of pollution.
How can you call yourself a programmer if you don't know the basics?

If you're gonna skip education, you better make up for it by going above and beyond what they teach with your self-learning.
IIRC correctly Fraunhofer can not apply for the majority of EU funding as the main party, but instead they are a partner on somebody else's grant.
Has anyone managed to get bun running with ChatGPT Code Interpreter?

I can get all the help text displaying but there's no output or error when running a JS file with the latest release (or even one from last year).

The latest Deno release works out the box with Code Interpreter. There might not be much benefit to running Bun over Deno but if like to try.
Interesting. This is something different than the thermoelectric effect, known from the Peltier element, see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocaloric_effect
Interesting to see trucking among the fastest growing industries. Who are the top companies in that category? I would not be surprised if it is fintech related trucking products.
That's a good point.

We are not turning back the systems that will heat the world.

If we approach it as a local challenge, there is a chance we can invent new ways to deal with it.

Maybe instead of this being the end, it could be a beginning of new science and development that counters the negative impacts of change.

Maybe, just maybe, we can get some good out of it.
Excellent share, thank you. In comparison, the OPs diagram offers a 'plan-it-yourself' type view of the provided AWS services, and as a mindmapping artefact, has no doubt aided the author to come to grips with the complexities of AWS.

And the result is something that summarises a complex system clearly and succinctly. Thanks for sharing OP, I'll be consulting this the next time I'm wading through the AWS forest.
Crying about supposed unfairness, hows that supposed to do anything.

But it is funny how people who personally make choices that reduce co2 fight against policies that would apply to everyone (well, at least in the same country, given there’s no world government).
>Google is more powerful than most governments

See that's where I disagree. Rich governments like the EU or the US can and do have power to push regulations if they wanted to. Pretending we the people (in a broad sense), i.e. the state, have no power whatsoever to control the terms under which these companies operate within the state, is defeatist.
I suspect the strategy is to downgrade the product on the sly and then run down the brand. There is money to be extracted when people are still paying for quality they do not receive. Endgame: bankruptcy. Middle game: PROFIT!
wait, TOME4 it's GPL, but tome-sx and friends, not :|.
It's a pity, because the older TOME games were Moria like but at least they put some overworld gameplay with several kinds of towns to make it more fun.
On NH/SLEM, you have towns, but inside the "dungeon".
Enjoy a high standard of living now that you still can. This ship is going down. Might as well make the most of it instead of trying to carry buckets of water out of the hull, it's futile. Humanity has spoken, this is collectively what we want on average. Is it good? Is it fair? It just is.
Pretty much the entire premise in the title of his blog post is false for dramatic effect and you wonder how this man could stoop so low as to be duplicitous?
Looking at how new motorway here was build ~15 years ago. The road and land might be most expensive parts. Ramps, and possibly bridges don't come cheap. Or then you need duplicated infra. That is separate charging stations on each side.

Next part is probably power. Transmission new substation are likely needed to supply for demand. And it is unlikely to be available. Lines might or might not be present.
Well... believing that meditation and mindfulness are supposed to make you happy is a misconception. They are tools for helping you calm and examine yourself, so you can make happiness a possibility, because you are managing stress and anxiety and setting realistic, rational priorities on everything.

They are the broom that sweeps the path clean... the path still goes where it goes. Changing paths is a conscious effort... you have to do the work.
> But says that the data thus far had not borne out global warming was happening.

Should we wait until predictions of bad outcomes become true and only then react? Has anyone tried adding a D part to the PI policy.
Why have speed limits on the road?

We have accepted that human life is worthless, because cars are allowed to drive fast enough to cause fatal crashes, may as well remove all limits alltogether.

Absolutist arguments are absolutely absurd.
Basically a hockey stick.
There is no reason to pay someone above market rates just because they have money. When a business needs someone to work an ordinary job, they're not going to pay a billionaire a ton of money even if it's the only way to get them to take that job, they're just going to hire someone else.

The reason doctors get paid more than farm workers isn't because they're already rich. A doctor right out of medical school often has more debt than anyone.

A COP of 5 is meaningless if you don‘t know the theoretically possible maximum COP in an application scenario. But thanks for the pointer, DLF interviews on scientific topics are usually quite good.
That is also illegal without a warrant, and there is no evidence that the US has done this, despite many leaks and oversight reports.
I really don't know how S&P500 indexes work in the US but that seems a lot.
so let me get it straight you are saying that by investing 60k (and then another 36k over 30years) (and by investing you mean put it in an index and forget it)
you get 11 Million out? So a return of 103218.96% even if yuod have invested all of that from the start and not over the years?
That is surely something wrong in that math or you just happened to be lucky with some ballooning stock.

The S&P average return rate over 30 years is 7.5%. Assuming you invest all 100k from the start you would have 800k after 30years and that's assuming having a consistent index over 30 years something that is less guaranteed than the Property market.
I liked Digital Fortress, but then again I was in high school. People here say that there are better novels around the same topic but I haven't encountered it for the last 10 years. Is there are good novels that I'm missing?
How am I wrong?

There were countless spillover events for the original SARS. To this day, it's not known precisely how many SARS spillover events there were, because they were so numerous and tracing was so poor back then. In a different comment in this thread, I cited a review article that goes over the evidence for widespread spillover events of SARS in 2002-2003.[0]

The gist of it is that SARS popped up independently at numerous markets, dotted across the Pearl River Delta. SARS infection was very common among palm civet traders in the region (it's even possible that most of them became infected).

The lab leaks came later, after huge interest emerged in the new virus and it started to be cultured in large quantities in many labs. Those leaks were extremely rare compared to the spillover events, they were immediately detected, and they led to much stricter lab security practices. But the relative probability of a novel virus that nobody even knows they have initially leaking from a lab vs. spilling over from large animal populations that host the virus is basically nil.

Enjoyable read that definitely touches on something real.

I was struck by the anecdote that Herbie Hancock tells in the linked video though. He misheard some advice from someone he respected, took it to heart and it changed the way he played.

I notice that this seems to work in opposition to the idea of a vocab point where high level practitioners are talking about real concrete experiences they are having that the lay man can't understand until they level up.

The way I think it worked in this case, is that as you go up the ladder of skill, you start seeing and thinking in more abstract, metaphorical terms. For a beginning student, you're focused on the mechanics, for the master, you're focused on what it means and how it relates to the human experience. This means that a master can apply an a metaphor that the beginner can't even understand. Indeed, Herbie Hancock can apply a metaphor that nobody else could even imagine had any relevance at all.

Perhaps rather than 'vocab point' we should talk about 'metaphor point'.
Should we just legalize the FAANGs to engage in cyber warfare/espionage against each other? Seems like then they would have to reach a minimum of best security practice instead of relying on obscurity.
Yes, the US military industry complex along with DARPA funding etc., seems like a huge subsidy exercise. There are also these weird rules in these grants as well, i.e. you have to fly US airlines (the irony obviously is that the US often strongarms smaller economies into abolishing these rules as being "anti-competitive/free-trade".

It's about cutting out food that create the biggest damage to our biosphere, which is the large scale meat & dairy industry.

RE: Why not go all the way, select handful of optimal foods and only allow those to be sold or grown. [...] ban everything not mandatory like spices and herbs.

This is not about banning meat & dairy. And you can't seriously compare meat & dairy to herbs & spices.

Prompt Category Classification
I'm excited to share an experimental study conducted by Pulze.ai to find the most effective approach for classifying prompts given to Language Models (LLMs). Our goal was to improve the overall performance of LLMs. The selected model has now been integrated into the pulze.ai API, providing prompt categorization back to the user.

We tested four different approaches:

1. Classical methods using Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) with Support Vector Classification (SVC) and Logistic Regression (LG)
2. Sequence classification leveraging BERT and its variants
3. Sentence embeddings with Sentence BERT (SBERT) combined with SVC or LG
4. The SetFit framework that allows end-to-end training of sentence embeddings using Contrastive Learning (CL) and fine-tuning the classification head
Our findings suggest that combining pretrained SBERT-based sentence embeddings with SVC provides a robust and efficient solution for prompt classification. Despite the surprisingly effective performance of the classical combination of SVC and TF-IDF, it's suspected to struggle with diverse vocabularies in real-world settings.

The fine-tuned Masked Language Models (MLMs) such as BERT showed mixed performance, with lower suitability for few-shot learning. The SetFit approaches, while promising, appear to need further optimization. We've implemented these findings in the pulze.ai engine with success.

We're planning further research to test these models with diverse real-world datasets and will be sharing more about deploying these models in a production environment in a future post.

We're eager to share these insights with the HackerNews community and look forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback. Please don't hesitate to share your experiences, ideas, or suggestions regarding prompt classification for Language Models.
Depends on store. One at gas station usually have high margins, probably lower volume. On other hand regular stores have very low margins. They just have massive volume. Convenience stores by my understanding are one of the lowest margin businesses. Maybe with selling gas.

Same here except that my mother (probably) has ADHD too and my parents are divorced so my mother kinda left me to my own devices because her childhood was more like yours.

I have no career ambition besides not hating my job. I don't have a dream employer or want to climb up the career ladder to some arbitrary position in which I can retire. I just want to have fun doing what I'm doing and as soon as my job stops being fun to me I quit.

I can't be a failure without expectations of myself. I overachieve just because my bar is so low.

Before being diagnosed with 29 or 28, I had so much anxiety because of this. Not anymore. My goal in life is to get up in the morning and not looking at my watch mumbling "only 8 1/2 hours left" to get myself through the day.
Because we keep foreclosing opportunities instead of creating new ones. Pass laws that make it harder for small businesses to compete with big ones, increase housing scarcity so people's wages go to landlords, professional organizations like the AMA pushing to restrict the supply of doctors which both makes it harder for people to become a doctor and raises healthcare costs.

"Labor laws" like this are the worse-than-nothing they toss you to pretend they're doing something about any of this when they're really in bed with everyone screwing you.
For all those saying that this due to the climatic conditions, you’ll are only semi-wrong (/jk), as it has to do with political climate instead with the upcoming elections next year (those in power want to appease their electorate base with lower rice prices). This is also the second time this has occurred, the previous time it was from the other ruling party, and them by enacting the rice export ban then, put a lot of rice factories out of business due to the ensuing demand shock (I know someone whose entire family business of multiple factories had to shut down for good due to this).
I work in customer support and while I haven't yet used Bard (because at the time it wasn't available to me), I have used ChatGPT to tell me what the customer is actually asking of me, when I didn't understand their emails. And thus far, it's been quite helpful. I even asked if once to rewrite the greeting part of the email so that it included now empathy (I'm kind of emotionally inhibited, as my doctor put it) and judging based on customer response, they were quite pleased.

You setup VNETs with private endpoints and then configure your and the azure DNS to talk together with magic, and you can do what it is you want to do. Then you can use public gateways or front doors for anything facing the public. I’m not a big fan, but it’s not like it wasn’t very complex before. It’s just that now developers are more exposed to the insane mess that is enterprise networking where before it was strictly an ops thing. It’s still mainly an ops thing, which is why I called the DNS setup magic because that’s the part of it I don’t ever touch. Of course you do need to plan ahead, especially if you’re using app services and multiple subscriptions as you can’t share subnets, and also don’t want to run out of IP address space I’d you use app slots.

What I don’t personally get with Azure is why the “default” settings for enterprise isn’t that everything is not on the internet. Then when you need to do something on the internet, you’d need to open up. You’re likely going to need to set up a bunch of things like load balancer a and what not anyway, so the process of putting something on the internet is complicated to begin with, but everything should just be off the internet by default. At least as some Enterprise setting or whatever.

But I guess part of it is that Microsoft sells Azure certifications and need it to be hard. But why would you want to worry about all this complexity in 2023? At least as the default. It’s fine that it’s very customisable.
Unless they are partners as subcontractors, this would still show up as EU-based funding here. And they can definitely participate in normal grants as partners. Not sure what exact rule you have in mind.
I don't think it's needed. I learned how to use systemd just fine without it.

Okay, so I'll try to explain how does global/troposphere warming works:

The earth must radiate all the energy it gets from the sun (else we break physics).

A third of the sun's radiation is reflected directly.

The rest have to be radiated. Calculation show that the temperature needed to radiate the excess energy is 155K. Also, plank's law make that this radiation is mostly infrared.

The atmosphere (GHG concentration especially) makes that the point of emission of the energy is not the earth surface, but high up in the troposphere. The temperature this point need to reach is 155K. To reach that, the point below has to reach 156K, the one below 157... (it's not really discrete values, and it's not really temperature but energy, but I'm both simplifying and explaining in a language I never used for physics or math before).

So, rising the number of Co2 molecules at that altitude (and especially higher) will move the point of emission up. But that new point of emission isn't at 155K yet! So for a while, the earth will absorb more energy than what it's emitting, until the new point of emissions reach 155K.

Its high school physics tbh.
do you have any examples from node.js?
Could work. And then only allow charging when they are producing power. Then the EV drivers could wait at these stations until it is sunny for their carbon-free future.
