Please do. There's a flagged issue below where if you send any blank audio, it magics up some phrase that it's been trained on. Am working on a fix, but for now, it should work if you make sure there's audio in every response. If there isn't audio being transcribed, then please do let me know as that may be a problem with the app on certain devices with certain software versions. Thanks for the comment.
Hi, I am running a webinar on the concept of bitemporal data management next week, as in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitemporal_modeling - please sign up up here if you are at all interested: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/296060701290006793...

I work on https://xtdb.com which is a novel database system that attempts to make bitemporal modeling more trivial (all data is bitemporal automatically!) - but this webinar is more generally about the concept, rather than our own work.

I've spent the last 4 years getting to grips with bitemporality in all its shapes & guises, and am more convinced than ever that this fundamental concept of cleanly separating the-timeline-of-the-system from the-timeline-of-the-data deserves wider attention.

There will be a Q&A discussion at the end of the webinar where it would be great to share stories and tips live, if you have any! And in the meantime I would be very glad to swap thoughts in the comments below. Thanks.

Depends which of the two period: first it evolved a lot with custom features non available for competitors (that’s the phase Chrome is in). Then once everything was IE specific code and it achieved domination it stopped evolving. When people say Chrome is the new IE is to mean it’s on the same trajectory (IE early mid 00’s), not that it’s already at the IE6 in 2010 phase.
Multiples reasons actually.

1. To bypass your corporate proxy (ok, not the best reason);

2. urlscan also allows you to pivot easily and find the same phishing kit as they have a nice database of scans;

3. urlscan also allows you to see the website from different proxies, which can be useful if there is geofencing.

It isn't that simple and threat actors are far from being dumb :)
It’s also completely untrue. In reality the high cost is not because of greed but because of high manufacturing cost and the necessity for long hospital follow-up. Novartis is also not the only manufacturer providing CAR-T drugs at a high price.

To me the biggest difference is the three theoretical papers, including from very reputable sources, all showing that a) there is indeed something weird going on with this material and b) due to the unusual configuration it is going to be tricky to manufacture.

Fleischmann & Pons was never supported by theory and was essentially a "we measured something and have no idea what is going on". LK-99 is more of a "the theory says something interesting will probably happen, and we believe we measured it in some samples but can't reliably reproduce it".

It should be considered a "breach" as soon as that data leaves the vehicle. It's obscene that it's considered OK for your car manufacturer to spy on where and when you drive, and it's only a "breach" when some other party also gets that data.
To be fair, you’re often punished for clicking No (it takes longer, may cause a reload), so you’d need a very good reason to not click Yes.
I tend to disable premium services in my billing when available, and/or the provider will mention that they're just not available on my service.

Although (fraudulent) CLI overstamping is still a mess here (Australia, and probably everywhere else) despite attempts to fix it with industry code.
Safari was always behind on Web specs that could replace apps in the app store.

It's all about the $$$. Apple is no different than Google in that regard :)

No… that isn’t why. Where I live both are rated the same which is to say, essentially free. We still don’t get this.

Yeah no, here we just regulate, and it works, and I’ve never had to think about it. Maybe just copy the working examples instead of being so dead set that it Won’t Work For Your Country.

Except for the fact that both materials contain lead, there is no resemblance.

Lead is one of the best superconductors among pure metals, whose superconductivity has been already discovered 110 years ago, in 1913.

Nevertheless, there is absolutely no relationship between the superconductivity of pure lead and the alleged superconductivity of lead zirconate titanate and the alleged superconductivity of lead phosphate doped with copper.

They have very different crystal structures and behaviors of the free electrons (i.e. electronic band structures).

Only if in the PZT samples used by the Navy there would have been some impurities, without the knowledge of the researchers, causing contraction of the crystal when substituting the big lead atoms, then there would have been a similar mechanism to what is claimed now.

If this mechanism is proven to really work, then it could also work in other crystals with big ions, like lead or baryum, perhaps even in PZT.
Ding ding ding, that is the correct endgame the governments want. And it would have been achieved a long time ago if the FOSS movement did not appear. Unfortunately, all it did was postpone the inevitable, because most people prefer comfort over freedom.

I don't. I think we can decompile WhatsApp and look if something suspicious has been implemented (e. g. some backdoor that hides the key change message), but I'm not sure if somebody does this on a regular basis. That's a bit simpler with the open source Signal, although we still need to verify they haven't slipped a backdoor to their official build.

And this backdoor might not be needed though, as UX for key change is (was?) atrocious in both Signal and WhatsApp: https://keybase.io/blog/chat-apps-softer-than-tofu (2019)

Western media isn't silent. It has been showing up in the science section of mainstream media for a few days now, with a healthy dose of skepticism around it.

It's in the New York Post, on CNET, on CNBC, the Washington Post, Wired, New Scientist, Popular Mechanics, and plenty more. Just because CNN isn't covering it 24/7 doesn't mean the western mass media is "silent".

They stated no "obvious" Meissner effect was detected.

Possibly because the sample includes too many impurities.
Could simplify further by just referencing the count of the number of Xs:

E.g. 1, 2 and 3.

Or for further clarity, each entity could in fact be denoted by a key feature, e.g. Messenger, AI Shop, etc.

Any particularly memorable phrase may do well to differentiate the specific entity from others in the market. All kinds of analogies can be used here creatively!

Wow, I've seen many AI-powered language apps lately, but this is by far the best. The others, if they offered verbal conversation at all, really struggled with my stuttering while trying to find the right words. I'm impressed that yours doesn't have this problem at all.

You could actually package this up in a way that people would find palatable.

What if maps only took you to places where you have a loyalty card - or the places that currently have discounts on things in your shopping list.

Give it the right marketing spin and people would love it.
The logistics at scale can't just be waved away like that; current providers would have at least a 10 year moat at scale to a new competitor even if they did nothing. And you can bet if a new company came along that was a serious threat the current players wouldn't sit idly by.
This is absolutely marvelous! I've been looking for something just like this. The batteries included aspect matters a lot if you just want the damn thing to work within a larger workflow, and the text editor is just one step along the way. Looking forward to trying it out!

There were no new HTML standards between 4.0.1 in 2000, and 5.0 in 2014.

I guess you have no idea how much money it costs to develop something like Chrome, especially at Google's salary.
I did say slightly snide.

But it isn't just about undefined behavior, it's more about the culture of C and how it approaches package management and sharing (or in this case, doesn't). Even if C has Rust level correctness checking it would have the same issue.

>If you are serious about your data format supporting round tripping you can and should specify the precise ASCII encoding of binary floats and the inverse.

Well I guess we have our answer in the case of seriousness. I'm guessing it didn't matter enough for the implementers, or it did matter but could never actually get it implemented. The reasons for this are numerous, contextual (with context we'll never have), and probably not rooted in technical reasoning.

We are talking about the domain of animation and games, after all. Not mission critical code. There's more wiggle room, especially for the complexity of media around when the format was being developed.
It also made me think of the St. Petersburg paradox and I think the authors did too, as they call their toss “Peter”
> Nobody claims that there is the null hypothesis.

Google “the null hypothesis”.

If you mean null model, then I’m not fighting against anyone. We all agree which null model to use is a choice to be made.

Otherwise, I’m not even sure what you’re trying to convince me of at this point. I’ll restate the essence of my first comment more concisely.

Bayes factors are a method of model comparison. You take the ratio of marginal likelihoods for two models given the data. Choosing a null model for this purpose requires more assumptions than doing null hypothesis testing with frequentist statistics. Mixing the schools of thought of Bayesian and frequentist makes things more confusing than operating within them individually. Bayes factors have other uses than null hypothesis testing.

Maybe you straight up disagree with one of those sentences to the point you could quote it and say “this is wrong because…”.

I have this feeling you got to my second paragraph on my first comment and started quoting stuff before reading it all the way through. Or maybe you just had some stuff you really wanted to talk about. Because my whole point was how calculating Bayes factors and the normal mentality of null hypothesis testing don’t play nice together, but can have other benefits. So a line by line comparison doesn’t really make sense.
Volvo goes SUV-only in UK as all saloon and estate cars axed
Believe me, I want to use Firefox, but I've tried it on multiple PCs and a dozen different distros, and it is always significantly slower than chrome. I actually benchmarked startup time and page load times a few weeks back and found it was 2-3x slower. Since then Brave has gotten even faster.
Its not an upgrade either way if you're buying a whole new machine.

As for my reasons, there's a few. First of all, particularly on higher priced items, a lot of the trouble with the price comes to having the full amount in the first place. I can't walk into an Apple Store £700 short but tell them "don't worry, I'll have the rest later".

Aside from that, actually selling the thing is no guarantee, especially not for £700. I remember going to buy a laptop on eBay over 3 years ago and I still see it up there now. It might not be as in demand as the MacBook would be, but the point holds. Even if it does sell, the question then is how long it takes before it does.

Based on that, I assume if I can only afford something if I sell something else, I can't actually afford it. There's just too many factors involved. If I can afford the thing and I sell the old thing after, great, that's a nice bonus.
This overboard generalizations is what make me sure that everyone is just gut-reacting. Have you read the actual proposal (not an article about it)?

In your knife-analogy, Google is producing sharp knifes for the cooks, not the children. the DRM crowd here is saying but what if the Cook uses the knife the attack the restaurant clients?
Do you know of anyone seriously discussing that we should stop all production of knifes because someone might give one to a child?

Okay, I see your point now but it's a bit weird for me because having the Ctrl key only for a specific app seems unwise and still less efficient. It's not about Gimp, it's just the terminal that's special.

I've never had an issue with Ctrl+Shift+C. I also don't press Ctrl+C accidentally because I know when I'm using the terminal.

Even on macbook, I don't have issues with accidental presses but I don't like that I have to press an entirely different key on the keyboard to use the terminal.
Exactly my take. The big question for me is whether or not they haven't accidentally included some contamination that makes all the difference or whether or not the geometry of the placement of the atoms is controlled tightly enough and whether either of those is going to make a huge difference in the outcome. And then there are a hundred different process errors that could have similar effects. This could take a while to be nailed down.
A lot of tech media outlets are not much more than extension of tech companies' PR departments. This has been very obvious especially in videogame "journalism" for a while (refusal to cover negative stories and more importantly follow up on them, or blatantly using article templates provided in advance by the companies), but if you pay attention, it is quite widespread.

I think the biggest difference is Meta is happy to put out an incomplete product and iterate. The standard Quest 2 for example leaves a lot to be desired on the software side, but instead of waiting for years to perfect it they shoved it out there with the expectation that people would understand and accept that its very much an evolving platform.

Apples approach is that they wont release until its ready for use by the average joe. The expectation that you get it and it works out of the box without needing to be too technical is where they thrive.

This isn't to say one approach is better or worse, just different.
