For what it's worth, I have a Nissan standard petrol car and it's pretty much the same. Every time I fill it up, it says I have 400 miles of range, then by the time I've driven about 300 miles, I've only got a few miles of range left.

Interestingly the accuracy seems to get a lot better by the time I'm down to half a tank. I don't know if it's a sensor issue, or maybe my driving habits just change a lot when I have a full tank versus when I'm running low.

The type of driving and time I'm driving can also make a huge difference to my trip MPG - some trips I average about 10MPG, others closer to 40MPG. Generally speaking, low speed but clear rural roads get the best, followed by motorway, followed by pootering around the city. The absolute worst mileage is during the winter, when I might only be driving lots of short trips around town on a very cold engine, with the headlights on, in the rain. In that case, I might only get around 200 miles out of a tank.

Anyway, my point is that knowing the specifics of this trip's fuel consumption is a much easier problem than knowing how many miles it'll be until you next need to refuel.
It's quite dangerous IMO since you run the risk of deadlock even in unexpected cases. There are times this makes sense, but most applications won't need it. Those cases are mainly where you have some long lived transactions that need to do a bunch of writes and you can guarantee they won't conflict since they are touching different tables.
You're probably at a lower risk of being murdered with a bad cop than with your own family members.

So I can still use this to DDOS. My malware running somewhere on your network just needs to submit a bogus request from your IP address. Origin sees the bogus requests from your IP and now that IP is on the bad list. Later - your legit requests from the same IP are ... denied.

I don't know that an "inverse" DDOS is novel, but it's certainly not been common. Perhaps that may change in the future...

There's a continual background cleaning process which depends on the amount of storage which can be reclaimed -- there's a tradeoff between cleaning too slowly (and paying for wasted storage) and cleaning too fast (and paying for lots of S3 operations). I think it averages a couple weeks right now.

In the US, firstly it is considered unfashionable by many to buy a used car altogether ("you're just buying someone else's problems!") and secondly, the only thing that can reliably affect resale value is if it condemned with a "salvage title." Which can mean a few things but usually means the car suffered more damage than it is economical to fix. But just the fact that a car was in a collision or had a claim against it does not automatically affect the car's future insurance rates or resale value.

We have a company called CarFax that produces vehicle history reports for used cars, but there are many problems with it. Starting with the fact that all reports are voluntary. I have looked at cars that were clearly in floods when you know what to look for and yet the CarFax was squeaky clean.
I'd love a lazy job so I can do all those things during work hours instead of after the workday and commute. (except piloting airplanes or cleaning pools, I don't need to do that)
You're right dang

The Tesla cars are the only cars I've ever driven that can simultaneously provide one with the very best, and yet absolute dog shit driving experience. It's a weird car that I honestly don't understand. Especially when people talk about the software being the best on the market. I don't recall the last time I cared about car software more than being able to use the turn signals properly. Great acceleration though.
>but most of the time it's very accurate

How can you know this without repeatedly running your car out of fuel?
Sorry, didn't realize you knew everything in the world already.
I mean, you're not wrong, but the problem isn't with the frameworks themselves.

The problem is that there is a cottage industry of companies, consultants and individual contributors trying to sell those ideas to everyone else, but common sense doesn't really pay the bills. So they must package "Agile" or "Design Thinking" or whatever into something that actually costs a lot of money and makes them feel important and authoritative.

"Individuals and interactions over processes and tools" doesn’t pay and actually saves money, so things like Agile naturally get lost in the translation.

True, but given that you're using one of the models to judge the others, it's likely that the cases of disagreement will tend to favor GPT-4. You would never use one of the competitors as a judge among humans.
There will be fingerprint and face scans on arrival too.
Desertification of previously farmed arable land is going to result in significant migrations and food supply instability. I think it goes without saying that will result in lost lives from myriad direct causes. This is the sort of thing wars are made of.
This is such nonsense. “You actually only need engineers who will always perfectly prioritize their workflow and will always precisely identify the right strategy for the product independently and any management at any level whatsoever is unnecessary and none of those people actually work anyway” is entry-level noise. I get that it’s popular to think that the entire organization is worthless and that you are the only hero anyone needs, but come on.

That you don’t understand or can’t comprehend what someone is doing does not, at all, mean that they aren’t doing anything or that they have no value.
It's not about weight or incline, it's the mechanical gearing in the "transmission" that can't turn the wheels without 100 percent power from the engine. You'll be able to push it and think it's really heavy, but it's just the transmission fighting you.

standards and automatic trans have neutral that disconnects driveshaft from engine, removing any resistance from the engaged gear. Most EVs either don't have neutral or a poor implementation of it, because of single gear transmission/direct drive.
As far as I can see, generalized control flow complicates the situation because you need to propagate a variety of signalling results up the tree. Consider a for loop with a switch inside of it, inside of which is an if with a return; if you hit that return, you need to propagate 'return from the function with this result' out through the containing if, switch, and for loop, which means that the Eval() or equivalent for each of them probably all need to know about all of your early-return options (since a 'break' is different from a 'return', especially if you support multi-level breaks).

Yes, but people in general don't weight their families as much of a danger as strangers. Interacting with cops has become scary for people.
Lots of complaints here about how "before" somehow "crosses a line" and this isn't science any more. I guess I think it's more gradient than that. We're mad because this is "before", but just the other day, we had headlines indicating that ... may be ... the universe is 2x older than what I've been told for years. At this point, I'm totally with Nate Bargatze on this stuff:

The whole design thinking mania in the early 2010s was just annoying for actual designers, having to fend off more entry level ideas that have already been considered and rejected. Just because you did a workshop in astronaut thinking doesn't entitle you to start planning spacewalks.
> A global power net. No solar power during the night? Just produce it on the other side of the planet.

This sounds like it has interesting ramifications for global politics. At the beginning of the Ukraine war, one major lever the Russian government had was to enable blackouts in Ukraine. Makes you wonder how a global power network could work in light of international conflict.
“In March, Alexandre Ponsin set out on a family road trip from Colorado to California in his newly purchased Tesla, a used 2021 Model 3. He expected to get something close to the electric sport sedan’s advertised driving range: 353 miles on a fully charged battery.

He soon realized he was sometimes getting less than half that much range, particularly in cold weather – such severe underperformance that he was convinced the car had a serious defect.”

He simply does not understand how batteries and power delivery work. Driving through the Rocky mountains will reduce mpg significantly for an internal combustion engine as well. Colder temperatures require a heater and less efficient for batteries due to increased viscosity of electrolyte fluid. All a perfect storm for poor EV performance.
Lets say you have added some file to the staging area using the IDE's Commit window. If you continue to modify those files after staging, commit window does not have any indicator to show these files have been updated further. I think the only way to figure it out it to run 'git status'.
>This takes into account speed, traffic, elevation, temperature, wind, etc

Can you expand on this? You say etc, what else is included? Where is it documented that this calculation is actually happening, versus something far simpler?
Great examples of how letting these private companies act however they feel like will ultimately lead us down to a worse experience and quality of life. Apollo and Tweetbot were great software that made those platforms much more useable and brought a lot of dedicated users to the platform. Now we have is poorly made official apps that offer nothing to the users. I don't use either platforms. I don't have an account with them anymore. I removed myself from them. Yet people like you make them important and justify their decisions. Instead of listening to their userbases' feedback, they instead PR it up and wait till there is only dysfunctional idiots left. TickTock started out as that and everyone else is trying to copy that homework. There are too many people in this world with poor mental health.

We should realize that somehow there needs to be an increase in regulation in business behavior. Even to how businesses treat other businesses that use their online platforms. Internet is too much of a wild west. It just does not seem there is modern actions and behaviors at play here. too narrow minded and thinking of how they are free too whatever they like without consequences.
I would say like it is less prone to tipping over per amount of material. It is not stronger in the meaning of holding bullets. Source: tried to build a brick construction once.
> Brave and Chrome do not support tst.

I don't know why Google didn't and doesn't prioritize it. I might have accidentally switched to chrome years ago if they had a TST-style plugin. TST fully recovered (eventually) after plugin ragnarok and Firefox's bad and opinionated UI, and can be made perfectly nice with CSS. For me it ranks as one of the best Japanese things.

TST has 2/3 the number of installs that translation has.
> Making the choice to not serve minors won't stop minors from lying about their age

This is true. But I believe anonymous speech is important, and once you require age verification you necessarily sacrifice anonymity.

There are certainly easier ways for law enforcement to do dragnet surveillance. Also, KOSA does not introduce criminal penalties.

Probably pretty low!

Fear is often not a rational experience, though. Interacting with American cops has become scary, and thus we don't have a ton of people doing what this guy is doing.
I do a lot with LoRaWAN, and I like the simplicity of its approach for class A devices, which is to wake up and transmit and then listen for a reply in two defined time windows. These are shortly after the transmission, so clock drift is less of an issue with cheap oscillators.

I agree that it's not ideal, but knowing that you can concurrently insert into separate tables would create some very welcome optimisation opportunities now that SQLite is increasingly used on servers.

The issues you describe only arise with concurrent inserts/updates into the same table. Essentially, what we would get if this got merged into the main branch is table level locking.
I would show my kids how the good intentions in the foreword were unachievable (by today's standards) by the genuinely intelligent and educated adult author, because of their cultural conditioning.

From what I've gathered when reading up on this topic, if RAM is your constraint the common thought has been that higher parameter models quantized down to smaller sizes will outperform lower parameter models running at higher quantization, i.e. it may still be preferable to use the 70B Llama model quantized to 4-bits than something like an unquantized f16 Falcon 40B or the "coming soon" f16 33B Llama2.
There's an app called PlugShare where people have flagged locations with regular 120V and 240V plugs as well as off the beaten path chargers. There's even some people with home chargers that have left a way to contact them in an emergency and they'll let you charge if you ask nicely. Haven't used any of the latter but they exist.
>How were the Tires inflated? are they stock tires? are the rims the aero dynamic ones? were you using climate control, was their wind? Hills? Any roof cargo? All these have a big effects.

True. But none of this should matter if your Tesla actually "learns", as other comments claim, right?
It would be great though if they stopped sponsoring the war in Ukraine. Yes it's unfortunate that their main HTS tape supplier is Russian, but pretending that it's not and just ignoring the issue (or obscuring the supply chain through that Japanese middleman) is pretty immoral.

Slightly off topic, but how come you were going on a multi-hour drive anywhere with no water, let alone into a remote mountainous area on a hot day?

I'm uncomfortably aware how quickly vehicles take me to inconvenient, if not dangerous, distances. 10 miles away is a short distance to drive but three hours to walk. Even fifteen minutes on a bike is a tedious walking distance back if it breaks down. For how easy it is to put or keep some bottled water in a car, why not do that all the time?
Where is the petition or letter we can sign to bring attention to this issue?
Git GUIs are a crutch, perhaps that's what your pupil needs right now, but not forever.

Windows novices may not realise that git can be a local program contained in a folder, so making a repo to test how a verb works costs you nothing.
Fair. But approximately zero people bought it because it was explicitly political Georgist propaganda. They bought it because they enjoyed playing it. The vast majority probably never even realized there was anything political in it. The vast majority of players probably have never even heard of Georgism, because the vast majority of everybody have never heard of Georgism.

Making such things explicitly political is still not an improvement to people like Bostonian (and me).

That's helpful!

I've done a lot of work in audio synthesis, which is notoriously difficult measure. The gold-standard is human ratings of audio quality, but it is tough to design good tests (easy to fatigue raters) and the iteration time waiting for results is quite long.

Instead, there's now some projects which use neural networks trained on human ratings to predict audio quality, such as ViSQoL: https://github.com/google/visqol

This opens up fast iteration - scores going up generally corresponds to higher quality - followed by human testing at major milestones (eg, releasing a paper/model). VISQOL has a harder time comparing 'unrelated' models, IMO - ends up being not so great for comparison of different techniques, but excellent for measuring incremental improvement or catching regressions.

But, in the end, yes - you can use NN's to measure the quality of other NN's, so long as you're careful about it and make use of human raters from time to time as well.

The problem of test data getting into the training data seems to be an especially pernicious issue with LLM's, which isn't really arising in the audio synthesis space.

Interesting! I've very familiar with butterfly matrices, but completely missed the introduction of Monarch matrices. I'm excited to unpack these definitions later.

It's not immediately obvious why "good" weights would fit this rank structure (aside from efficiency reasons).
Thanks for the comment! As we work with customers we will add more source and target dbs. A couple of things, our scope as of now is data-movement in/out Postgres. And as we add more data-stores as sources/targets to Postgres, providing a high quality experience will be the primary focus than expanding coverage.
The low-hanging fruit have mostly been picked by now, regulating demand-side is not a solution and will lead only to immiseration and state overreach. Unless you are fine with only flushing your toilet on Wednesdays, this is not a desirable future overall.
Calling it a Visa is hyperbole, even the linked article suggests it is more like a US style ESTA, which the US has forced on us since 2008 (which is only compatible with visa waiver programme).

The thing that makes me truly sad, as a UK citizen, I will also need this to travel to Europe since Brexit. It isn't a US-centric requirement, which the headline suggests.
Pretty sure his brother works on tarsnap too.

Yes, I hired him in 2015 IIRC. If you look at tarsnap's GitHub you'll see a lot of commits from gperciva.

A travel authorization is not a visa, visa free travel for US citizens will remain.
I'm racking my brain on this. Why is this not just called exactly what it is, "Neutral"?

I just read about this feature which is advertised purely for car washes, and can be gotten into with a wierd combination of actions or "putting the car into neutral".
