I wonder if the criticism is along the lines of the attitude around the US-Mexico border is crackdown on the distribution and availability of the narcan (naxalone).

I heard that in Mexico right wing politicians are blocking the import of naxalone with the attitude that people that OD on the streets should not be helped.

Just wondering...
During the social media ad pause of the 2020, we had multiple companies admit in earnings calls and elsewhere that pausing advertisement had no impact on their sales at all.

The extreme end of that spectrum is Tesla with no advertising whatsoever.

This kind of observation makes me pause and cause some reflection on ads in general.

Interesting news about Ruth Porat transitioning to President and Chief Investment Officer of Alphabet:

> Alphabet and Google CFO Ruth Porat will assume the newly created role of President and Chief Investment Officer of Alphabet and Google, effective September 1, 2023. Ruth will continue to serve as CFO, including leading the company’s 2024 and long-range capital planning processes, while the company searches for and selects her successor.

> In her new role, Ruth will continue to report to Sundar Pichai, Alphabet and Google CEO.
> Ruth assumed the role of CFO in May 2015 and is the company’s longest-serving CFO.

> In her new role, Ruth will be responsible for Alphabet’s investments in its Other Bets portfolio, working closely with Sundar, and the company’s investments in countries and communities around the world. Alphabet’s investments span numerous sectors and are engines of economic growth globally. She will also focus on engagement with policymakers and regulators regarding employment, economic opportunity, competitiveness, and infrastructure expansion.

Does this mean cuts a.k.a. "streamlining" incoming for Other Bets? She has been known to be pretty strict about unnecessary spending at Google.

Well you have to first define what is "technical analysis" and be quite clear with what you mean..

There are lots of giant trend following and quant funds that will likely fall into "technical analysis" category.
> And while legal and policy reforms can help build the labor movement some, the power of organized labor is not ultimately rooted in the state, but rather in the ability to halt production and wreak havoc even when the state is aligned against it.

Agreed - the power of the union is not based in legal authorization but the collective effect of being able to halt production.

But when the state is aligned against labor, as Taft-Hartley did to make these sorts of sympathy strikes illegal in the US, it becomes that much harder to use union power. Businesses can appeal to a supportive government to use the cops and National Guard to arrest "illegal" strikers.

How do we shift those laws to de-nerf union power? I don't know. The piece doesn't say how either.

>Of course the smart student will easily figure out a way to stream the GPT output into Google Docs, perhaps jumping around to make "edits".

No need to complicate it that much. Just start off writing an essay normally, and then paste in the GPT output normally. A teacher probably isn't going to check any of the revision history, especially if there's more than 30 students to go through.
Depending on the system this could range from an easy project that one can do in a few hours to a very long quest. For some research systems (particularly those implemented in the pre-FOSS era or those from companies) it may be impossible to try out the systems without attempting to implement them yourself. However, there are other systems that are available to try out. The ideal situation is a FOSS release, like the MIT CADR Lisp machine code and Interlisp-D. Barring that, the next best thing is some type of freeware or non-commercial license; I think this is the case for OpenVMS, though I could be mistaken. Some systems cannot be obtained easily without traveling the high seas, if you catch my drift, matey (cough Open Genera cough).

I think a lot of value can be gained from not only using software, but by reading papers and manuals, especially when the software is unavailable or unattainable. There’s a site called Bitsavers that is a treasure trove of old documents.

Come to think of it, a significant reason for Unix’s dominance in research and education is its availability, going all the way back to the 1970s when Bell Labs sold licenses to universities at very low prices. Even when licensing became more restrictive in the 1980s, this spurred the development of MINIX, GNU, later BSDs, and finally the Linux kernel, in order to recreate the environment students enjoyed with 1970s Unix. This openness is a far cry from the work of Xerox and Lisp machine vendors, where one needed to have been privileged enough to work for one of these vendors or their customers to use these environments, which were far more expensive than Unix workstations and especially personal computers. Thankfully there’s a wealth of documentation about these non-Unix systems, as well as testimony from their users. In addition, some systems were open sourced. But we must remember the times that these systems emerged, and we must remember why Unix became so dominant in the first place; its openness and availability set it apart from its competitors.
for people looking at deploying ML: this comment is not even wrong[1], there's no real way to respond to it substantively. It's sort of like saying Swift came out 7 years ago and it's mostly useful for iPhone X and the first iPad Air.

Ah, but you're overreaching. I agreed with you in the comment you replied to. However, your point about rationality isn't so clear cut in the case of religion. If a religious person tells me that the theory of evolution is just flat out wrong then yeah, I'm going to dismiss that as irrational. If a religious person tells me that people reincarnate or get sent to the afterlife based on their deeds, I personally won't agree but not because science can determine this in any capacity. That's not a matter of rationality anymore; it's faith. There's no evidence either way.
No, it isn't.

Making them globally accessible is insane.

NAT has made this distinction confusing.
I was on an immigrant visa once and was experiencing undue pressure from my employer, so I know what it feels like. I still had autonomy and could calculate for myself what risk (in this case losing my right to be in the US) I was willing to take.

Maybe another way to think about it that is more productive is to ask yourself: what if my employer goes belly up? What would I do then? What degrees of freedom can I create to de-risk things. After all, my employer is not responsible for my success in life.
The cold fusion people were actively touting data that didn't align to known fusion reactions. Like there are a limited number of elements one can fuse, but for some reason their reaction (which is known) had the energy off by like 300-400 KeV. For example: a proton signal of 2.6 MeV instead of the known 3MeV signal.
no, very much not the case.
> common feedback is "I can't see myself wanting to grab a beer with him".

Wow. I've been part of interviewing teams for tons of people, at a number of companies, over decades. I have never once heard anyone express anything like this about an applicant.

The discussions are more about whether or not they can do the job and whether or not they'd be a good fit on the team, not whether or not anyone wants to socialize with them.
Disregarding the biological aspects, I think the problem is "families" don't care about people, it's a group of individuals who, through deeply caring about each other, create this thing we've labelled a family. I've definitely had glimpses of this with some work relationships, but it had nothing to do with the company.
Two problems:

1. Most people who publish their writings online are too lazy to hyperlink, even where it is extremely appropriate. Even intra-site links.

2. Link rot is real. Maintainers of web sites are too arrogant to make redirects, and happily destroy all their incoming links when playing with a new framework. So now links from your site lead to 404s, because of somebody on the other end, and you have to scan your outgoing links every few months and change them.

In a way Mac OS and iOS have already implemented the "everything is a link"-approach, with their look up feature. It's much more powerful than it used to be, and you can select any word or words anywhere and find all kinds of information.
>This is not an endorsement of TA but look at what they do, not say.

What they do is make-market, rather than conduct proprietary trades, and spend huge amounts of time, money and effort on risk management that's based on hedging the risk in the book rather than forming an idea about which way the market is going to move.

USA literally creates money out of thin air, there is no upper cap as they keep extending the ceiling.

This is how we have a CEO making $100b from a single company stock which would be impossible if it were a zero sum game.

Hype which is even more rarefied air, can create so much money without taking anything from the customers. Silicon Valley VC's create valuations for companies out of thin air and then triple it even without anyone ever seeing that money.

Attention which is unlimited in a way is a new form currency, which is why you see platforms being built up to get more eyeballs.

The rule you mentioned comes into play when taking into account players in the game i.e any game where you can add more players is guaranteed to become zero sum.

In real world situations where cooperation is needed, we mostly have a non zero sum game.For ex -

Back in the day when a 4x CD-ROM burner was a luxury, we got a phone call from a customer we shipped a CD to. Would not read. Did a second burn at 1x speeds, tested on several machines, and mailed out the disk. Would not read. Burned a third and tried on every unique setup we could find on the most premium disk we could buy. Would not read.

I drove out to do the manual install a stack of media in hand. Got to the customer site - and watched in horror as they put the CD-ROM in the 5.25" floppy drive. It fits.

It's more expensive per unit power but heat pumps are more efficient than natural gas boilers. I can't easily retrofit, but a very high SEER heat pump comes out to a similar annual cost as my existing 96% efficient natural gas boiler. But only a very high efficiency one; a middle of the road heat pump loses, partly because I have a very high efficiency condensing boiler and partly because PA has fairly affordable gas rates.
The argument made in the article is that “Is Albert Einstein smarter than a toddler?” means things like "Einstein can do arithmetic better than the toddler".

But this only makes sense because the toddler and Einstein are similar systems doing the same fundamental things when they do arithmetic. We would accept that "Einstein plays chess better than a toddler" is an indication that Einstein is more intelligent, but would we accept the same from Deep Blue? If not, why not?
TeX was written in the 1970s for typesetting when there were no word processors by a computer programmer who couldn’t afford professional typesetting and couldn’t be bothered to learn assembly language so he wrote his own fictional one for his book — the same book he wrote TeX to publish.
Ouch, you need to take another look at that.

The definition of an insulator is a material that holds (up to some amount of) voltage without electrical currents appearing.

Your example needs two wires. And the wires themselves don't have any voltage. All of the voltage is between them, and is only there because they are insulated from each other.
Just for comparison, an typical MRI magnet is 1.5 Tesla. An NMR spectrometer can go up to 28 Tesla (using new high-temperature superconductors). The LHC magnets are around 8 Tesla.

Those are the kinds of magnetic fields the classic superconductors and the newer high-temperature superconductors can achieve.

That is my personal belief, yes. A lot of the denier I talked to basically failed to see how climate change is real and even if it is real, what is the harm to them. They don't see the problem and so they don't want to act. That is the root of the issue.

It is hard to tell someone there would be a food shortage if that person spent only 1% of their income on meals and restaurants and still have a higher standard of living than most people. There are plenty of rooms for them to adjust and they genuinely do not see a problem.

I don't think that either of us know what "most people's" experience actually is. With the people I've gotten to know over the years, that is the most common experience. Apparently, it's not with the ones you have gotten to know.

Both of us have a selection bias going on.

>It's exceptionally relevant. Excuse my French, but this constant doomerism is really fucking up the kids.

Think of the children?? Lol, as if the environment being 20 degrees hotter isn't going to "fuck up the kids". The kinds should be worried. Many of them actually are worried and try to do something about it, it's the adults that won't listen or curb behaviors, or in many cases try at all - and at worst they call climate change "a hoax".

>We gave an entire generation anxiety and depression, and it's going to wreak havoc on the fertility rate in a decade or so.

That's a good thing, and is exactly what the planet needs - less humans. Every human added to the planet generates a non-zero amount of carbon. Adding more humans isn't the answer to anything, and it won't make anyone less worried for their future.
Yes, but I think your comment has the foundational misconception that it's the first or even main place where bias is put into models.

LLMs are just pattern identifiers and repeaters. They are trained on inherently biased training datasets of inherently biased text written by inherently biased humans. Every single step of training introduces some amount of bias to an LLM.
It's the strangest thing. On any other platform, people want freedom. They don't want MS to force them to use Edge. They don't want websites to force them to use Chrome, etc.

With Apple, it's the opposite. Freedom to install third party app? That would be dangerous! Freedom to use iMessage in the browser? That just doesn't make sense! Freedom to use third-party browsers on iOS? I guess most people just don't care about that one.

It's just striking that for every other company, lock-in is bad. But for Apple, lock-in is actively evangelized by the user base.

Sure, technology has benefitted the government as well. But if you're going to cite the fact that 250 years ago surveillance required live eavesdropping, then the weapon analogy needs to go back to the time before guns and other range weapons, when you had to physically shove in the pointy bit.

In any case, my point was about the ability of civilians to conceal, surveillance is only relevant in its inability to keep up.

To your main point, it's important to understand that most people don't feel the need to conceal their conversations from the government. Note: this is not an "if you're not doing crime, what do you need to hide?" argument. I'm just stating the fact that the reason the government can surveil so much information is because people don't choose to encrypt their communications. If they did, the government would have access to very little. Until/unless they set up cameras and microphones everywhere.

- The politicians successfully signaled to those at the university that criticizing their policies will be inconvenient at least, and a realistic threat to your career.
