Regardless of the financial outcome people's opinion about Musk is forever compromised.

In the last 3 years the world has been invited in the backstage to finally meet the rockstar and they realized that he's a massive douche and it's much better not to associate with.

The old legendary managers such as Peter Grant who managed Led Zeppelin would be maniacally precise about sampling groupies before letting them backstage and make sure to avoid repetitions and most importantly make sure groupies wouldn't talk with the press and make a 180turn live on TV as far as their opinion of the guys.

Musk has let the whole world in and everybody can see the douchy mess that he is, whereas those who precedeed him at #1 in the Fobes list have always kept a much more cautious approach (a la Peter Grant) in order not ruin their reputation (Rich man = smart man, richest man = smartest man) that they achieved due to the big number always printed near their face.

Aren't most retired people's money locked up in gov pension and social programs as opposed to the USA where you're expected to mostly self-fund retirement with 401k, IRA, and savings?

So older US people have more control of their retirement funds than Europeans?
I don't think any of the other rich people have inspired so much jealousy to the point people can't stop talking about them the way Elon has. Anyone who really thought he was an idiot would just ignore him.

> The car can't tell you how far you can go if it doesn't know where you are going

But the car can use your recent driving experience to get a good estimate. After all, if you've spent the past 10 minutes driving at 70 mph into a strong headwind, there's a decent chance that your next hour will be spent doing that. (Although this does get amusing on I-68 where my range estimates are markedly different after cresting the hill versus bottoming out in the valleys).

Sure, it's not the best estimate possible. But it's trivial to implement "assume recent past", and it's a far better estimate than "synthetic estimate that relies on a weighted average of two very different driving conditions."
If you interpret 'indication' broadly enough to allow plenty false positives and false negatives, then sure. But surely you would agree that a stronger formulation (high price must mean high value / low price must mean low value) would be false, yes?
Or get older.

Wait a minute... it took 10 million years to get organisms that could break down lignin, but less than 200 to get organisms that can break down plastic?
With a single instance? Could also do blue green instead.
The issue is that the number displayed on the dash can be toggled between "% battery remaining" or "miles remaining". The "Miles remaining" is actually "EPA rated miles x % battery remaining", and NOT "miles remaining based on last 10 miles driven, or current navigation destination".

If they removed the 'Miles remaining' number and only showed a percentage, you would end up having to do the exact same conversion in your head anyways. "Oh I have 43% remaining of my 330 mile battery, how much is that?" so this is really just a quick shortcut.

Tesla has a separate screen with very clear range estimates that the user can toggle (based on last n miles or based on current exact 'instant' reading). In addition, when navigating to a destination, the nav tells you the estimated battery % on arrival, which is also based on current driving and is generally quite accurate. In addition, it will tell you during & after the trip exactly why the estimated and actual range differed. Eg "0.5% extra battery used due to a 5.6mph headwind, 2% extra battery used by driving over 70mph", etc.

Having a count-down 'Miles remaining' on the dashboard doesn't always make sense, particularly when you haven't entered a destination, or if you're switching between highways and back rounds a bunch. Either way, it's never going to actually be accurate down to the last mile. In reality, you just have to know that the miles on the dashboard are "EPA miles", meaning if you're driving on a flat surface in good conditions at ~55mph, that's what you'll get. If you change your speed, or conditions get worse, you know you'll need to adjust it in your head (or use the dedicated in-car screen to automatically figure it out for you!).
Hey I'm not saying apple isn't providing value here, just that they're making unbelievable margins on the app store. Just guessing here but would not be surprised if just the app store ads cover all the app store expenses and then the 30% is pure profit.

I donated monthly to MrChromebox for more than a bit.

Before COVID hit, I used his firmware and ~20 1st Gen Asus/HP Chromeboxen (upgraded RAM to 16G and 128/256GB SSD replacements, i7-4600U Haswell, cases stripped off and heatsinks added to the new SSDs) to create a physical K8s lab.

I no longer need to run that kind of lab, but I still use those a few of those nodes for running services at home. Proxmox/Docker/K8s/Win Server/etc, a bit more power draw, but x86-64 and since they "expire", you'll see a periodic flood of devices to places like eBay.
Where are you typing help to get that output?
It’s extremely complicated to type out, and it’s late here in the UK. But I’m not saying all this just to blow hot air, it just runs deep.

Quickly though, Gina owns the land because the financial system she uses to get title from the legal system are one and the same. The legal system was implemented in Australia based on that run from London - barristers today still get their authority from the Inns of Court based in the city. So the legal system passes acts on paper saying “this is how you own things” and the state / the crown claimed dominion over the whole continent of Australia, ignoring and negating that there were already people there - the aboriginals were simply outside the system, and also didn’t have guns. So The Crown acts as the legitimising power of the legal system, the financial system, the military, basically the root of everything, that says “if it says on paper that you own it, you own it, and we’ll enforce it and ensure you own it (provided you pay us and we get a cut)” but the very idea that paper title means ownership was a system imposed, and one in this case formed in The City, so the whole system of The Crown is like a web that covers almost everything and one bit of it can’t actually be separated from any other any more. The Crown not only has land claims, it’s the force that legitimises land claims, and although now Australia is a federation that passes its own laws and has its own government, that new state is just so entangled with the old system of doing business that tracking back “all roads lead to Rome” in this case being London. The City of London is part of the corporation that is The Crown, because it itself is a corporation that goes back to time immemorial - before records - and the main mechanism for it doing business and maintaining order is both military power and legislation on paper. So when we talk about The Crown we’re pointing at a system that is a step above even ownership, it’s the system that legitimises and frames the very concept of ownership and then grants the force of law for that ownership to be enforced.

Like I say, it’s too complicated to really type out with my thumbs on my smartphone. It’s deep though, as deep and as baroque as it gets.
good point, I hadn’t realized that you only need to predict chroma! That actully greatly simplifies things

re. chroma subsampling in training data: this is actually a big problem and a good generative model will absolutely learn to predict chroma subsampled values (or JPEG artifacts even!). you can get around it by applying random downscaling with antialiasing during training.
talking about class war? that's not very ESG compliant of David Brooks, lol.

we can't have that now, talking about class iniquity is not supported by investment funds like woke stuff is.

last time we had this kind of political discussion was occupy wall street, a grassroots protest movement that crossed generational, gender and racial divides to see people protest banks, and then as if by "coincidence", the same wall street that was being protested, is suddenly very interested in funding divisive social activism and schools of thought that just stir shit amongst the populace and distract from the 1%ers, suddenly OWS became about protowokies, the sjws, doing all this stupid infighting so they could start building some klout for themselves, constantly trying to outdo each other on virtue signalling and putting their personal pet issues to the fore rather than just taking the likes of goldman sachs and blackrock to task for their manipulative evil behavior.

this is literally the useful idiots strategy right out of the KGB handbook on fucking your enemies up... how people haven't seen this for the last decade and a half or so is beyond me.

I note the police were well funded back then too, interesting that how the cops were very much present in large numbers when it's the banks and wall street that's being protested, kettling and agent provocateurs and all, but when the 2020 "summer of love" came along, can't seem to get enough police... can't control it, just suddenly very useless and incapable, as someone who saw this all play out from the outside, I don't buy it and I no longer trust what the US media says about it all considering I saw buildings burning while news reporters pulled a "everything is fine".

People can scream conspiracy all they want, but one of the core rule of businesses is to do whatever you can to control your opposition or paint them into a corner, so owning your opposition through ESG funding and then dog whistling to them via the media what you want them to stir shit up about for a decade, is far cheaper than what OWS could have become if the woke divisive stuff had not come along when it did.
Interesting! I just guessed that might be an issue. I had trouble using a Razer mouse configuration tool because it was unable to see the USB device.
I question it myself a bit but I think I will stick to my argument. Yes it is a small amount of weight, but from what I understand passenger cars contribute a lot (28%) to total greenhouse gas emissions. 290.8M cars on the road in USA alone. I will say a copper heating coil in a seat weighs 3 Lbs. 4,094 Lbs is the average weight of car. So we could save .1% of the weight of the car maybe? Over the lifetime of a vehicle couldn't it add up?

Then we can add in the CO2 emission of manufacturing dead material to place in the car.

To top it all off, no one wants this.

"They?" The Romans? "cis" is just the Latin prefix antonym to "trans." The former means "on the same side (as)," the latter means "on the other side (of)."
So, I will say that this has negatively impacted me, and I have since sold my Tesla, and consider this to be a bad business practice that they should get fined a lot for, and probably just stop doing this immediately...

That being said, in the closest thing I will ever muster to a defense of Tesla... I think the thing that the articles might be missing on this, is this: Would people have adopted electric cars that work for them in all of their usecases, if Tesla hadn't lied about range to alleviate fears of range anxiety?

People overly sample issues with electric cars based on how far they can go, without ever acknowledging the part about them not actually needing the full range of the car. And Teslas still work for the majority of long drives as well, just with more frequent stops than they should have.
Few decisions are good for only one reason.

Coding a Q/A Model for Podcasts (late night coding) [video]
No more so than any other colorization method that isn’t dependent on out-of-band info about the particular image (and even that is just more constrained informed guesswork.)

That's what happens when you are filling in missing info that isn't in your source.

EDIT:
Of course, color photography can be “bullshit” rather than accurate in relation to the actual colors of things in the image; as is the case with the red, blue, and green (actual colors of the physical items) uniforms in Star Trek: The Original Series. But, also fairly frequently, lots of not-intentionally-distortive reproductions of skin tones (often most politically sensitive in the US with racially non-White subjects, where there are also plenty of examples of deliberate manipulation.)
In reading your replies.. you've got it straight, from another long time ADHDer.

The major problem with Brave search is their position about indexing and licensing content against the wishes of the website publisher. Their robot does not identify itself, meaning the publisher cannot use the standard robots.txt to block its crawling if the publisher so wishes. Incidentally, the robots.txt file has been used in court cases litigating if a search engine is legal or not.

Even worse, they state that Brave search won't index a page only if other search engines are not allowed to index it. It is morally not their right to make that call. A publisher should have full control to discriminate which search engine indexes the website's content. That's the very heart of why the Robots Exclusion Protocol exists, and Brave is brazenly ignoring it.

Even worse than that, the Brave search API allows you (for an extra fee) to get the content with a "license" to use the content for AI training? Who allowed them the right to distribute the content that way?

Yes, absolutely, if that were a feature the Netflix app allowed.

Obviously it does not: your downloads expire after a certain amount of time, and if you cancel your subscription, you won't be able to get a key to decrypt the files.

Companies are free to try to put restrictions on that sort of thing, but I think if customers are able to circumvent those restrictions (the DMCA anti-circumvention laws notwithstanding), the company should not get to complain about this.
Different ISO ;)
The Y in YCbCr is linear, and is just a grayscale image. The L channel in lab is non-linear (as are A and B), and is a complex transfer function designed to mimic the response of the human eye.

A YCbCr colorspace is directly mapped from RGB, and thus is limited to that gamut.

LAB can encode colors brighter than diffuse white (ala #ffffff), like an outdoor scene in direct sunlight.

Sorta HDR (LAB) vs non-HDR (YCbCr).

This image (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f3/Ex...) is a good demo, left side was processed in LAB, right in YCbCr). Even reduced back down to a jpeg, the left side is obviously more lifelike, since the highlights and tones were preserved until much later in processing pipeline.
I was trying to think of an alternative, which the bankers could do, if they wanted, which would be narrowly focused on climate change. Like ESG, the idea is that it's something big financial actors can do without getting government on board.

First thought:

Just bid up the price of oil. Make it too expensive for the refiners. Drive gasoline up to $50/gallon. Every drop on the market, just buy up and do not burn.

There is an issue with this, of course, which is that it still (hugely) incentivises extraction. You don't want to have to physically store the stuff.

But you also can't pay for notional oil left underground: "Yeah, trust us, we didn't sell that barrel to somebody else for additional money."

Second thought:

You could subsidize the hell out of a substitute though, thereby killing demand. Investors poured money into Uber at a loss just so it could eat up market share, right? Why can't you do that with solar panels and electrification? (Where's my electric car paid for by the Saudi Sovereign Wealth Fu... oh.) You can even create network/lockin effects: Electric cars cost half the price, so everybody buys one, so gas stations go out of business.

These are very expensive strategies, but they seem to directly use the price mechanism to try to achieve your goals. Is something cheaper and more efficient possible? Something about efficient markets would seem to imply that that isn't possible, to the extent that efficient markets exist...

Idea 3:

Industrial matchmaking would run into the exact same issues that dating apps do, chiefly that the population of users is disproportionately less desirable partners (due to selection bias), but on top of that a matchmaking service wouldn't even be able to attract the "desirable and promiscuous" backbone of the dating app industry.

Matchmaking only "works" in places where women are denied autonomy, and it results in them being sold off like cattle. This is not a desirable state of affairs to anyone but the most loathsome, pathetic basement dwellers.
I'm wondering how long it will take, if ever, until:

1. we can put the wasted efforts of tribal cultural warfare behind us

2. we can have debates that may not and should not result in unanimous agreement without being disagreeable

3. voters are informed deeply about all issues and candidates presented before them from verified sources, not press releases from political operatives

4. Elimination of PACs

5. Private financing of political campaigns is either abolished or severed limited to small donations from named individuals to a particular candidate only. When funds go unused, they are fractionally returned to all donors

6. Prosecution of public officials who take thinly-veiled bribes and other considerations
I think the problem here is that courts have allowed software vendors to use a legal trick to get around how owning things normally works. Software gets copied into memory to run, and courts have accepted the theory that making such a copy requires a license even though it's not a copy in the traditional sense (it can't be given to a third party so that they can also use it).

A book is copyrighted too, but when I buy one, I can legally write in it, paste in pages of my own, cut out pages, etc.... I can even sell it after I've done that.

I'm 95% certain the law should be changed to restore the first sale concept to software, and even more certain when it comes to embedded software that's necessary to use hardware owned by end-users.

I've written at least one GenServer in nearly all the Elixir projects I've worked on. They seem like one of the base building-blocks to me. Also, if you squint a bit, you'll see that many libraries you're working with are essentially exposing a GenServer interface, with a few extra features.

To be fair, "lying" isn't a legal term.

"Fraud" is a legal term, and "intentionally misleading people" is the very definition of Fraud. https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/fraud

In fact, it seems like Fraud is still Fraud at the reckless or negligent levels. No intent needed (though I'm sure proving it at the "intent" level will get them more of a case).

So... is this Fraud? Well, yes. It would be. But the next step is for these plaintiffs to prove the fraud in court. It seems like they have a strong argument though.
